Chapter 208 (1/2)

A’Xi, Are You Full?

Nan Xun was convinced that you can only believe what you see. The cannibals looked very kind, very unlike brutal people who ate others.

After a while, a woman secretly lifted the cave’s curtain and peeked inside.

When she saw that Nan Xun was awake, she came in and explained with a smile, “The Patriarch and most of the men in the tribe went out to hunt.”

As she said that, she looked at Nan Xun’s obvious kiss marks. They were very clear, and the smile on her face became a little ambiguous.

Nan Xun nodded and smilingly replied, “I see.”

The woman’s name was A’Hua. She had also been traded to the cannibals a few years ago. When had winter almost arrived, she was exchanged for a single beast. She currently lived with two men, and had birthed a child to each of them.

Nan Xun asked A’Hua if she could borrow a bone needle and some flexible straw rope, then mended the underwear and skirt that A’Mang had ripped.

When A’Hua asked if she wanted to pick fruit together, Nan Xun agreed without hesitation.

It was necessary for her to showcase her labor to the few women in the tribe.

Other than those that had to take care of their children, all the women were dispatched.

Nan Xun amazed the group of women by climbing trees, and picking fruit and wild vegetables into the coconut-like shells.

The women looked at her in a daze. A woman who was like a man and could also bear children. Their Patriarch was too insightful!

Near noon, the men return with their prey.

Nan Xun found that the men here really were pill-houses. They didn’t have any fancy weapons, but their spearheads were made of polished stones which were very good for hunting. In only one morning, they successfully caught two beasts.

At noon, everyone in the tribe had a full meal, and the women took out the wild fruit they picked.

Because there was more wild fruit than ever before, the men couldn’t help but be surprised. After hearing that most of them were picked by A’Xi, the men’s eyes were full of smiles towards their new Patriarch and couldn’t help but tease him.

A’Mang hugged A’Xi, who was roasting meat, and said shamelessly, “Hahaha, my A’Xi is so powerful. Really worthy of being my, A’Mang’s, woman.”

After that, he held Nan Xun’s face and kissed her.

Nan Xun slapped him on the head and gave him a warning look.

A’Mang laughed and said, “A’Xi got angry. Okay, let’s go talk about it in the cave later tonight.”

The men who had women laughed tacitly.

Nan Xun wanted to punch A’Mang’s laughing face.

Damn, can you be a little more subtle? Can you!

After a full meal at noon, the men went hunting again. This time, they returned when it was dark.

The women had already picked enough fruit in the morning, so instead of going out in the afternoon, they sat together to mend and sew.

The cold winter was approaching fast. The women started to make winter clothes from the animal skins. Each family was issued a piece of skin. Although some people hadn’t received any yet, they weren’t in a hurry because they believed in the men’s ability to hunt enough prey before winter came.

Women could only make simple clothes. After all, the tools were limited. For example, there were no scissors, and the bone needles were relatively thick. Most of them made simple sleeves and knots according to the texture of the animal skin. Even so, Nan Xun felt they were amazing as is.

Nan Xun thought for a while, then took out the large sawtooth tiger skin that A’Mang left in the cave.
