Chapter Fifty-Seven: Footsteps in the Grass
"So soon?" Su Tang looked surprised. She thought she would have to wait a few days!
"By the way, brother, I brought back the thin vines you mentioned."
Su Tang brought over the vines that Xiaofu had carried back.
The two of them turned around and went to play with the cat climbing frame.
Daqing also followed curiously, he likes to join in any fun.
Su Jianyuan stared at the backs of the three of them in stunned silence: "??"
Is this gone?
This is not how you reacted when Daqing came back from catching prey yesterday!
Su Jianyuan vomited blood in depression. What was the point of fighting back a wild boar weighing more than a thousand pounds?
This Daqing stole everyone's attention as soon as he came to his house. Damn it! It's really hateful!
Su Shiwei had drawn the structural diagram of the cat climbing frame on the sand in advance, and made the wooden boards of each part separately. Now he just had to assemble it.
Su Tang watched as Su Shiwei skillfully put different wooden boards together. After a while, the loose wood was firmly put together.
A cat climbing frame over one meter high is initially completed.
"Brother, you are so awesome. Just a few pieces of wood just now turned into a cat climbing frame!" Su Tang looked at the half-finished cat climbing frame in amazement.
Her brother really has a pair of skillful hands!
How did Brother A make something that she didn't even understand?
Su Shi smiled and said, "It's just cut into a suitable shape and easy to assemble. A friend bought it before and asked me to help assemble it, so I just did some research on it."
Su Tang rubbed his hands by mistake, and when he saw that there were still vines that had not been installed, he was eager to try.
"Brother, how do you get the vines? I'll give it a try too."
After all, it was something her cubs needed to use. How could she do it if she didn't know how to use it?
Hearing this, Su Shiwei moved away and taught Su Tang step by step.
"Just tie the vines to these leg posts, and then weave a few kitten nests on the empty ground. Cats like to sharpen their claws, and this will also allow them to climb."
Su Tang didn't know how to knit a cat's nest, so he had to ask his mother for help.
The almighty mother is not a builder. When she heard that Su Tang wanted to make a cat nest, she agreed without saying a word.
Su Tang followed Su Shiwei's instructions and wrapped the vines around each other. When she finished wrapping the vines, Lin Xia's two cat nests were ready.
Su Tang fixed the cat nest on the cat climbing frame.
The cat climbing frame has three layers in total, with a little green leaves dotting the top, and dark green vines on the yellow-brown trunk. It looks like a castle covered with vegetation.
At first glance, he looks pretty good-looking.
"Brother, you are so awesome, I'll go catch the cub and try it!"
Su Tang couldn't wait to bring the cub over.
The five little dumplings were playing a game of whack-a-mole with Lin Xia.
Recently, the cub's mental state has been getting better and better, and he spends less time sleeping. When he is not dozing off, he is doing all kinds of things.
Even Lin Xia had a headache.
The cub was placed under the cat climbing frame by Su Tang, as if he had entered a new world.
First, I poked my head in. Several cubs huddled behind and didn't dare to get close. One of them, the biggest and boldest, walked in the front, sniffing left and right.
He walked under the pile, rubbed it with his head twice, and then began to rub it with his paws, making a scratching sound of "ka ka ka".
Su Tang looked happy, it seemed that this little kid was really interested in the cat climbing frame.
"Come over, you guys should come over and play too." She poked the buttocks of the cubs behind her with her finger.
Xiaotuanzi was pushed forward a few steps. At this time, the cubs' bodies were not that sensitive yet, and their attention was entirely focused on their big brother and the cat climbing frame.
Seeing this, they all came over one after another.
After a while, several kittens appeared on the castle.
The little cubs had a great time climbing, as if they were in an amusement park. Even if they accidentally fell down, they would shake their heads and continue climbing happily.
Seeing their claws scratching on the cat climbing frame, Su Tang's scalp went numb when he thought about the cubs crawling on him before.
Fortunately, there is a cat climbing frame, otherwise it would be her body that would be tortured in the future!
"Brother, thank you. The cubs seem to like it very much."
Su Tang gratefully thanked Su Shiwei, thanks to her brother for saving her.
Su Shi smiled slightly and said, "No need to be polite to my brother, just tell me what you want from now on."
He is just a sister. If a sister wants anything, she must satisfy her with all her strength.
Daqing on the side looked puzzled, scratched his head and asked:
"Isn't this just like a tree? Why not just let the cubs climb the tree?"
Su Tang was stunned. This statement seemed to make sense.
But after all she had done, how could she admit that it was not as effective as a tree?
"This is a cat climbing frame, a tree is a tree, of course the two are different." Su Tang said firmly.
"Oh." Ah Tang said it would be different if it was different. He didn't understand anyway.
Just as she was talking, Lin Xia took out a stack of animal skins from the hay shed.
"Tangtang, you are sweating profusely. Go and wash up at the river. My grandma made you a new dress today. I just want to try it on."
Su Tang took the animal skin and shook it open. It was a half-sleeved loose skirt with two straps around the waist to adjust the waistline.
The skirt is made of deerskin, and the light brown skirt has plum blossom-like patterns distributed on it, which is very beautiful.
"Mom, how did you do it? Where did you get the needle and thread?" Su Tang looked surprised. Although the stitch was a bit rough, it couldn't be done without needle and thread.
Lin Xia put her hands on her hips and looked quite proud, "There is nothing in this world that your mother and I can't do."
"The needle is ground from cow bones, and the thread is made of fiber that your father found in the woods and twisted into a thread. I made this at home while you were out today."
Lin Xia is a typical person who can't sit still.
Once you are free, you must find something to do.
This step sounded daunting, and Su Tang didn't dare to think about how her mother did it. She was so moved that she held Lin Xia's arm and kissed her on the face.
"Mom, you are so kind!"
"How old are you? Why do you still act like you haven't grown up? I'll boil a bucket of hot water for you. Go wash it and change it. I'll see if it fits you." Lin Xia urged, but there was a smile on her face.
Flowers bloomed.
Su Tang responded with a smile, and went to the river to take a bath with hot water.
At the moment, the cub is playing on the cat climbing frame, with Daqing watching and no one to take care of it.
Su Tang was going to go to the river to fight quickly. Anyway, it was impossible to take a good bath under the current conditions, so he could only wash briefly.
When he came to the river, he mixed the hot water with some river water. When the temperature was moderate, Su Tang took off his greasy animal skin clothes, squatted by the river and scooped water from the bucket with a ladle to wash.
It's said to be a bath, but actually there's no shower gel or anything like that. It's just water to rinse off the sweat.
Su Tang symbolically rubbed the dirt on his body, rinsed out the water in the bucket, wiped it clean and prepared to put on clothes.
At this moment.
