Mu Qing's mind stayed up until the second half of the night, and the more he thought about it, the more it made sense. It happened that Li Mang turned over at this time and put his arm on her again in his sleep.
If it had been in the past, she wouldn't have done anything like that. She would have just gently moved his hand away if she felt it was serious or hot. But at this time, I didn't know where to feel slightly annoyed. Not only did I throw his arm back with a shout, but I also raised my foot and pushed him out with force.
Li Mang is always alert when sleeping at night and will wake up at the slightest movement. After being tormented like this by her, he naturally woke up immediately. He didn't know what she was thinking at the moment. He thought she was playing tricks on him because she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. He mumbled a few times, turned over and took her back into his arms, and fell asleep again.
Mu Qing twisted twice in his arms, and when he saw that he was motionless, he suddenly felt frustrated and helpless in his heart. Then I thought about it, in addition to treating myself as a child-birth machine, during the half month of being with him, he was really kind to her, so good that sometimes it even made her feel protected and doted on, which was not the case before. She had never felt it before. She couldn't be too greedy and criticize the man next to her who was sleeping with her arms around her for doing exactly what she wanted. Even if she returns to the civilized society where she came from, which man can meet the standard of completely satisfying a woman?
Thinking like this, Mu Qing felt that the gloominess in his heart had been diluted a little. In addition, he felt a little sleepy. He yawned twice, closed his eyes in his arms and slowly fell asleep.
An incident happened early the next morning, which made her a little surprised and a little regretful. When she was woken up by Li Mang reaching out to wake her up, she opened her eyes and remembered that bad thing again. Although I had persuaded myself once last night, when I saw his face now, I still felt angry for some reason. I snorted and pushed his hand away from my chest.
Li Mang must have been a little surprised. He didn't know why she suddenly changed her face. She looked confused. She retracted her hand and looked at her blankly, frowning slightly.
Seeing his appearance, Mu Qing felt a little unbearable. Thinking of hanging the laundry last night, she pushed him and smacked outside the door curtain.
Li Mang understood, immediately stood up, wrapped himself in animal skins, and flew outside to get her clothes. When he came in with a slightly grimace, Mu Qing found that his shirt was dry after being blown by the wind all night, but his pants were still damp because of their heavy weight, not to mention his shoes.
Li Mang knelt down beside her and saw that she seemed a little unhappy and embarrassed. He probably remembered that this was his own masterpiece last night.
Mu Qing put on her clothes, thinking that when the sun came out, the temperature would rise sharply. She put on her pants and basked in the sun for a while, and it would probably not take long for them to dry out. After thinking about it, she was about to put on her pants when Li Mang suddenly held down her hand, took the snakeskin apron that she had folded and put on the ground, and handed it to her, with a smile on her face.
Mu Qing looked at it, shook his head, stood up and put on his pants.
Li Mang looked a little disappointed and threw the apron on the animal skin in frustration, revealing traces of sewing on the inside. Mu Qing wanted to turn it back with quick eyes and hands, but Li Mang had already noticed it, and with a surprised sigh, he took it over and turned the whole skin over. The traces of cuts and stitches on the snake skin were clear. visible.
He frowned.
Mu Qing regretted his carelessness. Although she didn't quite understand the joints involved, but with the idea that more things were better than less things, she vaguely felt that it was best not to let Li Mang know about the Yao Yao incident last time. And judging from Na Duo's intention, it was obvious that she had the same idea, otherwise she should have done it earlier I just told Li Mang.
Mu Qing took the apron back from his hand, knelt down, folded it up and put it away. When she raised her head, Li Mang was gone. Feeling a little apprehensive, I hurriedly opened the door curtain and leaned out, and sure enough I saw him heading towards Naduo's house.
It was still very early, there was still a thick layer of fog shrouding the woods around the settlement, and there were not many people. When Mu Qing chased Na Duo to the shack of Na Duo's house, he saw Li Mang looking very angry. Na Duo was blocking him, eyes wide open, looking frightened and frightened. The two seemed to be arguing about something. On one side, several men from the Naduo family watched blankly.
Mu Qing didn’t know what they were talking about, but he could guess that it was probably because of Yao Yao’s last scratching of the snake’s skin. It looked like Li Mang was going to ask Yao Yao to question him? Then Naduo tried her best to stop him?
When Naduo saw Mu Qing, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly pointed at her and said something random. Mu Qing heard her mention her name.
Li Mang turned back and glanced at her.
Mu Qing stood not far behind him, with a smile on his face that conveyed tranquility and comfort.
Li Mang looked at her for a while, the angry look on his face gradually disappeared, he shook off Na Duo and still held his hand, strode to her, grabbed her hand and took her back to his shed. After walking a few steps, he looked down and saw that she was still barefoot. He stopped and thought for a moment, then motioned for her to stand still, then he turned around and went back to Naduo's house.
Mu Qing was a little anxious just now. He didn't feel anything when he ran out in a panic, but he found that the soles of his feet did feel a little numb. After standing and waiting for a while, I saw him bend down and come out of Naduo's house, holding a pair of shoes in his hand.
This is indeed a pair of shoes, but the entire pair is made of animal fur. They look extremely heavy and should be worn in the snow in winter. Mu Qing turned it over and took a look. The bottom was made of impermeable animal skin, and was sewn tightly to the upper. The stitching was fine, and he could tell at a glance that it was made by Naduo.
Mu Qing couldn't help but laugh. He asked her to wear these "snow boots" on a hot day, but compared to going barefoot or wearing a pair of sneakers that squeaked and filled with water when she stepped on them, this was more difficult for her delicate feet. Seems like the only way.
Li Mang had already squatted down and put her feet into the shoes. Although it is a bit thick and heavy, and the size is slightly larger, it is still stable and will not fall out when you lift your feet. Seeing him looking up at her with a somewhat apologetic look, she couldn't help but reach out and rub the messy hair on his head, and chuckled.
Li Mang stood up and giggled along with her, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.
A few days had passed since this minor incident. Mu Qing paid close attention to Li Mang's actions at night, and further confirmed his initial thoughts. He would kiss and hug her, but in the end nothing of the sort ever happened.
Mu Qing struggled with the idea of being reduced to a fertility machine for a few days, and then she no longer felt relieved. On the other hand, sometimes I see that he is obviously very emotional, but he still holds back, feeling a little weird, even intolerable, fearing that he will be guilty if something goes wrong if he really holds it in, and mischievously thinking that one day he will actually see her. But if you try to seduce him now that the time has passed, who knows what will happen?
This is just a self-deprecating thought she sometimes makes. Since Li Mang doesn't have that intention, she will never take the initiative to do anything, at least not yet. Compared with this kind of thing, she now cares about things that are closely related to her daily life. Although it seemed to be trivial things in the past, now it is really no longer trivial.
First there was the problem of the shoes on her feet. After wearing the pair of heavy fur boots for two days, Mu Qing was finally able to take them off and change back into his own shoes. It was just that she was inspired by the boots. She picked a lot of rattan and boiled it in water. This was to increase the toughness and softness of the rattan. After drying in the shade, she took it to Naduo for help and used what she had just learned. After a lot of talking, gestures and drawing on the ground, Naduo finally understood what she meant and helped her knit a pair of shoe soles. Mu Qing made several thin braids from rattan and threaded them into the soles, then fixed them firmly with needle and thread, and a pair of flip-flops came out. Naduo's hands are very skillful, and the vine base is made flat and dense. Mu Qing tried to walk a few steps after wearing it. It felt very light and the feet were cold. Except for the fact that it was easier to wear, he was very satisfied with it. The walking problem was temporarily solved. Some women in the tribe found it strange and learned to wear it, but they were used to walking barefoot, and within two days they all ditched their sandals and went barefoot again. Mu Qing simply collected them all and kept them until the pair on his feet were worn out before wearing them again.
The shoe problem was solved, and Mu Qing started to worry about her hair again. Although she didn't have to comb her hair a hundred times like Mother Black taught Scarlett in Gone with the Wind, as long as she had the energy before going to bed every day, she would comb her long hair through with a sandalwood comb before going to bed. For more than half a month, I haven't seen any women with combs. I see that they don't seem to care about hair problems. They either use a branch or something to mess up the top of their heads, or they tie it up at the back of their heads. When they feel it is inconvenient, they use it. The piece has just been cut off by rubbing it back and forth with a stone knife. Mu Qing had no choice but to use his fingers to unclog it, and then braided his hair or something. It was cold, but he still felt that his unkempt hair was somewhat lacking. It happened that Li Mang and his companions came back that day, and a big fish was harpooned from somewhere in the water. It looked like it weighed dozens of kilograms. They cooked fish soup in a big clay pot, and each family got a bowl of soup and a piece of fish meat. . Mu Qing was not interested in the dull fish soup, but when he saw the abandoned fish bones on the ground the next day, he had an idea. I picked a piece of fish with thick and strong bones at the back, washed it, and then polished the spiked head with a stone to make it smoother. Finally, a decent-looking fish bone comb came out. I tried combing my long hair. Although it was not as easy as the wooden comb before, it was much easier than using five fingers. I took it out again before going to bed at night, planning to comb my hair before going to bed. Li Mang noticed this thing. He didn't know what it was for at first and was a little curious. After she demonstrated it to him, he immediately lost interest and lay down to sleep. Mu Qing refused, and forced him to sit up, kneeling behind him to comb his hair. It turned out that she had long been dissatisfied with his messy hair. She had no choice before, but now that she has the tools, she naturally wants to tidy up his messy hair. At least she will find it more pleasing to her eyes.
Li Mang obviously didn't appreciate it. Every time she combed her hair, he bared his teeth and squirmed around looking reluctant. Seeing that he was about to finish with just a few strokes left, he suddenly turned around and hugged her. Holding her waist, Mu Qing tried to use a fishbone comb and one of his teeth was broken. She was so angry that she kept hitting him on the shoulder. Li Mang burst out laughing, looking like a child who had succeeded in playing a prank.
A few days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the millet seeds in the crop field will be harvested tomorrow. Mu Qing calculated that today was already his twenty-second day here.
Since she knew she couldn't go back, she could only live here with all her heart. So instead of worrying about gains and losses, I feel like life is calm and simple these days. As long as she didn't think about the distant future, or the past, she felt that she was still living, especially when she was with Li Mang. But starting from last night, Mu Qing's mood became a little depressed again.
After Li Mang had been intimate with her for a while, he asked her to use her hand to hold him tightly and not move, probably this would make him feel more comfortable. Just like it's been done many times before. She deliberately teased him for a while and listened to him panting like an ox before doing so. While she was chuckling, she suddenly remembered that her menstrual period would arrive in three or four days, assuming that Limang's two sows during her last critical period had not been successful. But what if he succeeds?
Mu Qing's mood was suddenly disrupted, and his mood returned to the uneasiness he had experienced in the few days after that incident happened.
Li Mang is very nice, she even feels like she has a crush on him. But giving birth to a child for him now... was simply unimaginable to her.
