Chapter 93 Every word has a response
"So a piece of wool can be woven into a piece of cloth?"
Li Yan got closer to watch the knitting technique carefully. His emerald eyes sparkled abnormally, as if he had discovered a rare treasure.
He Qianqian explained: "You can also weave into various shapes.
From simple to complex, the simplest ones are scarves, the more complex ones are gloves, socks, vests, woolen pants, sweaters, hats and so on.
For example, when the weather gets cold, I can knit a woolen vest for An An and Zhen Zhen.
But it’s too hot now, so I can’t wear it if I knit it. It will only be useful when it gets cold.
Look at the cotton clothes we wear, they are woven with another kind of thread, that is, thread made from twisted cotton fibers.
In fact, the methods are similar. ”
"Qianqian, teach me how to knit. If I knit now, I can use it when the weather gets cold." Li Yan said.
Lingye also came up excitedly and said, "I want to learn too. When I have cotton in the future, I will also learn how to weave cloth."
Two males, very interested in knitting and weaving.
They ran out and made a few pairs of knitting needles out of bamboo. Then they came back and sat by the bed, learning to knit in an orderly manner.
From the day we ate hotpot, we would light oil lamps at home at night.
He Qianqian insisted that they turn on the lights when knitting sweaters so as not to damage their eyes.
She yawned, and before she knew it, she fell asleep with her head tilted.
Li Yan and Ling Ye smiled at each other.
Li Yan, who was closest to her, laid her down and let her sleep well.
Seeing beads of sweat oozing from her forehead, I hurriedly helped her wipe them off.
I think it’s because females are particularly afraid of heat during the period of pregnancy.
Lingye went to the yard and brought back a large stone pot and filled it with ice cubes.
Li Yan activated his wind ability, allowing a breeze to blow over the ice, bringing out dense cool air, which then circulated in the room to cool it down.
After a while, the room became much cooler.
He Qianqian turned over and finally slept more soundly.
Li Yan was knitting a sweater while using her special powers to cool down the room.
After Lingye learned the basic knitting techniques, he realized that the wool was not enough, so he continued to twist the wool and made balls of wool.
They both were reluctant to sleep, wanting their female to wake up and see the effect of the weaving.
Mid-afternoon the next day.
He Qianqian slept until she woke up naturally again.
She just stretched lazily, making some noise, and the panda cub An An beside her immediately crawled over with a grunt and snuggled into her arms.
The bear's claws were quite strong, grabbing onto her clothes and refusing to let go.
Like a whimpering monster, he hums and rubs his head against his belly to act coquettishly.
He Qianqian held him in both hands, lifted him up high, and nuzzled his soft belly with her head.
The little guy felt itchy, and like a conditioned reflex, he kicked his two short legs like a little motor, trying to scratch the itch.
He Qianqian's hair was made messy and rough by him.
An An was so well-behaved and clingy that she couldn't help laughing:
“Your brothers and sisters don’t stick to me as much anymore because they are more curious about the outdoor world.
Only our An An still cherishes his mother the most."
"Squeak--wa-wa--"
An An's two round black ears kept shaking, as if he was listening carefully to her voice, sensing her soft voice and gentle tone.
Then he continued to respond to her in this sweet and innocent voice.
No perfunctory response, every sentence has a response.
He Qianqian suddenly felt something was wrong with her hand and quickly sat up to check it carefully.
An An wore a loose woolen circle on her shoulders, which looked like the clumsiest woolen vest.
It just happened to fit over his black and white fur. If you didn't look carefully, you'd think it was An An's own fur color.
Looking at the crooked stitches, with occasional missed and wrong stitches, He Qianqian smiled again.
To be able to weave to this level in one night is quite remarkable.
Her first male, Li Yan, is virtuous. Ling Ye is also very good.
Seeing An An sticking out her tongue because of the heat, He Qianqian smiled bitterly and quickly took off An An's wool vest.
Then he carried him out of the cave.
Li Yan and Ling Ye were sitting under the bamboo shed in the yard, knitting sweaters and spinning wool.
"You two didn't sleep last night?"
"No, I will sleep well tonight." Lingye asked her to sit down, "I will bring you food."
He Qianqian sat down and saw a small bamboo basket beside her filled with wool rolls.
Li Yan is knitting a scarf, and it is already as long as her arm.
"Qianqian, do you think the vest for Anan is okay?"
"Very good, and very meaningful. I will knit two more shoulders for the vest later and let An An wear it in the future."
She lowered her head and coaxed An An, saying to him, "I hope An An won't dislike such an ugly vest."
Aang continued to respond to her with joyful monosyllables.
He is very well-behaved, always answers questions, never gives perfunctory responses, and provides He Qianqian with a lot of emotional value.
Li Yan smiled and said, "An An should grow very fast, and he won't be able to wear it when the weather gets cold."
"It's okay. The sweater is elastic. If the clothes of the cubs are too small for the first litter, we can save them for the second litter. We can't waste them anyway."
After a while, Li Yan said again: "My father said that those old orcs are willing to help us spin wool."
"Not bad, not bad. Then send it over and ask them to make two kinds of yarn, one thicker and one thinner."
At this time, with a whoosh, Xiao Qizi also got into He Qianqian's arms and sat in a row with An An. He looked up and shouted, "Mom."
"Be good, Xiaoqi." He Qianqian stroked his furry ears.
She was holding two furry cubs in her arms, eating brunch, and continued, "Maybe Charles will smell the scent and find our home soon. When he sees good things, he always wants to take them to the tribe.
I won’t be able to sleep if I don’t scratch it.”
Li Yan said: "Wool yarn is a good thing. I was so happy that I couldn't sleep last night. I think the clan leader must be an expert in it.
The bleating beasts have been much more well-behaved today. As long as they are given enough grass, they will not make any noise.
I listened to you and added salt to the water, and they liked it.”
"This is the process of sheep domestication. I wonder which of those ewes will give birth to lambs?"
Lingye replied: "I can hear that two beasts are pregnant."
"Very good, the lambs born will be raised by us ourselves, they will be more docile.
As the domestication continued from generation to generation, the sheep became more docile and easier to keep in captivity.”
The three of them chatted about nothing.
After a while, Li Yue hurried back to the small courtyard with Xiaer following behind.
When He Qianqian saw Xia Er, she immediately curled her lips and smiled.
"Grandpa Patriarch, what brings you here?"
Ciel: ...
"No wind can blow me away. I came here on my own."
He scratched his head and looked at the sky, then activated his special powers and carefully tested the wind speed.
Complained: "It's too hot today, why is there no wind at all."
He Qianqian giggled.
Ciel rubbed his hands and explained his purpose: "I came to see what species the bleating beast is and what it looks like. We warriors are going to catch an identical one and bring it back."
"Why not let Grandpa Clan Leader feel the feel of wool? Any bleating beast with this kind of wool will be fine."
He Qianqian thought for a moment and continued, "If you want to tame them, try to catch some ewes with lambs and raise them together. It will be easier to tame them."
"Yeah, I remember."
Charles said, "To reward your family for teaching the tribe members to knit sweaters, five oxen will be sent tomorrow."
When He Qianqian smiled, she knew that Charles was generous and fair.
