The next day, Wu Wuqing walked out of the room and saw that the gifts piled in the hall had multiplied several times. Qingqing raised his eyebrows. Usus didn't seem to like other orcs giving him gifts, so why did he collect so many for himself?
He didn't know that these things were for him before, and he didn't pay attention to see what they were. Now that he knew that the pile of things was for him and collected them all, he might as well take a look at what they were.
Qing Wuqing looked around the hall. There were a lot more things in the hall besides the pile of gifts. He moved a wooden chair nearby, picked up a package and started to open it.
This gift contains everything: fruits, nuts, whole grains, many varieties that Qingqing has never seen before, but he can initially judge that they are edible. Orcs basically eat meat. Wuqing learned through Users that these vegetarian foods are probably what females like to eat.
In addition to edible things, there are also some usable things. Some give away clothes, and some even give away fabrics directly. Fortunately, there are no people who give away silk threads directly. Qing Qing looked at several pieces of cloth of different colors with black threads all over his head. He seemed to You don't know how to make clothes...
Finally, Qingqing picked a relatively large wooden box and opened it curiously. It turned out to be a set of small cooking utensils inside! This couldn't be a toy for the females here, right? Thinking of this, the corners of Wuqing's mouth twitched involuntarily.
Compared with the large cooking utensils in Usus's kitchen, this scaled-down version indeed looks like a toy. However, Xiao Guixiao, if you let him use it, it is indeed very convenient. Obviously, he won't use them to cook. Such cooking utensils are perfect for brewing medicine. He is currently short of things to make medicine, so this gift is really unexpectedly satisfying.
"Aqing, do you want to learn to cook?" Usus saw his baby sitting next to the pile of gifts, playing with a cooking utensil and toy for the female cub. Does Ah Qing like to cook? Why didn't he notice it before? Thinking of the cooking utensils used by orcs in his kitchen, should he move the place to put the cooking utensils used by females?
In the tribe, some female orcs can only cook meat, and sometimes cook themselves and make other things. But there is really no need for my baby to cook by himself. He usually pays attention to making some different vegetarian dishes for his female to eat. Do you think his skills are not good enough? Usus began to wonder...
"No," Qing Qing shook his head. The food he made could only guarantee that he would not be eaten to death. As for other things, there was no need to ask for anything else. After all, time and energy are limited, and there are specialties in the art. "These things are good for making medicine." Ruthless continued.
Usus had seen the "cooking medicine" behavior of his own females in the cave by putting medicinal ingredients in a vessel and boiling them together, and he had also helped cook them a few times. When we were in the cave, we used small stone bowls to cook the food over the fire. Now that we have returned, we have thrown away the small stone bowls. It is time to replace them with other things. Although this was the first time he had seen someone cook and eat medicine like this, Usus definitely supported his baby's decision to do so.
And through yesterday's rescue, he clearly realized how powerful his little female's medical skills were. Mullin even said that people can't be saved, but Ah Qing still managed to save people. It's really amazing, isn't it?
He just didn't know if rescuing people like that would have an impact on his health, because he saw that his baby was very tired and weak after rescuing people. Fortunately, today was the same as usual. If it was really bad for his health, he would never let his little female do such a thing again. It was good to save others, but he couldn't hurt himself.
"Is there a place here where custom-made utensils can be made?" Thinking that he really needed some medicine jars, medicine bottles, mortars, etc., Qing Qing put down the things in his hands and asked. I just don't know if anyone here can make it, but thinking that there are both pottery and ironware here, and the craftsmanship is also very mature, I ruthlessly concluded that what I want can be made.
"Yes, what does Aqing need? Shall I take you to see it?" Usus replied, thinking in his mind: take your baby out for a walk. You have been locked in the room for so many days, so you can go out and get some fresh air. good.
"Okay, then let's get ready and leave." Qingqing stood up, straightened his clothes and said to Usus.
This time when he went out, Usus did not carry a big bamboo basket, but hung a small leather bag and went out holding his treasure. Orcs who are better at making tools live near the market, and you can go to the market later.
In fact, under normal circumstances, orcs will make their own tools, but most of them are only for their own use. The utensils used by females were originally made by the females themselves, and compared to the utensils of the orcs, the females' utensils were much more refined. Later, females taught the skills to their partners and children. Today, the rough work of making tools is done by orcs, but some of the finer work is still done by females.
Sitting on Usus's arm, he ruthlessly pulled the bag around Usus' waist. You should know that money bags are usually hung like this. Opening the bag, there were beads of various colors inside, probably as big as a thumb. If you look closely, you will see that these beads are transparent, white, green, or black. They all have small holes punched in them for easy threading.
Qing Qing took out a bead and played with it in his hand. He couldn't tell what material these beads were made of, but they were very hard. Such beads are the money here, they are quite interesting. Qing Qing touched the black stone bead hanging on his chest. This bead was something he always carried. It was smaller and darker than the money beads. He originally used beads as decorations.
"Usus, is this money? How is it calculated?" Wu Qing held a transparent bead and waved it in front of Usus' eyes.
Usus watched his baby playing with the money beads in the leather bag, and finally held a transparent bead in his white little hand and shook it in front of his eyes. The crystal clear beads paired with the slender white fingers were exceptionally beautiful, and Usus' eyes followed the movement of the little hand.
Hearing the little female's question, Usus swallowed before saying, "Yes, these are money." Then, he took a bead of various colors and placed it on his precious hand, pointing at it carefully and explaining: "A black bead like this can be exchanged for a hundred green beads, a green bead can be exchanged for a hundred white beads, and a white bead can be exchanged for a hundred empty beads."
"The money at home is kept in the cabinet in the room. If Aqing wants to use it, he can take it by himself." Usus continued. Orcs generally don't use money like this, and they need to buy less things. However, the males will pay attention to accumulating some money and then leaving it for their females.
Are black beads the most valuable? He thought the transparent ones were the most valuable, so he shook the beads in his hand ruthlessly. Can't you tell that Users is quite rich? There are many black beads in the leather bag. Moreover, this guy directly told him where to put the money, so aren't you afraid that he will spend money randomly? However, Wu Qing was still very satisfied with what Users said.
"Usus, there are a lot of people today." Wuqing looked at the pedestrians around and said to Usus. The last time he walked here, there didn't seem to be so many people. Moreover, the appearance of the orcs seen today is even more different, and their hair is also of different lengths. Some orcs also have long hair and wear elegant robes. If they weren't tall, Wuqing would have thought he was a female.
Of course, he was ruthless because the man looked at him with eyes full of admiration, and he judged that he was an orc. He also received a lot of looks like this when he came out on the first day. At that time, he thought they were looks from outsiders. Because such a look was so straightforward, he didn't think about it at that time. Sure enough, the people here were different.
"Well, today is a market day, and there will be people from other tribes coming to buy and sell things. After we finish the work later, let's go and have a look?" Usus explained to his baby. The cubs all like to be busy, so how about taking the baby with him? The female goes to the market?
"Okay." Qingwu agreed happily. You can take this opportunity to learn more about the situation and find out if there is anything you want. Why not?
Usus took his treasure to the orc's house where the equipment was made. After ordering the things, he carried the man towards the market.
"Usus." When walking through the wooden house area where the females lived, a man suddenly walked up to Usus and stopped.
He looked at the visitor ruthlessly. He was a very good-looking man, at least the most handsome among the females he had ever seen. The man is 1.9 meters tall, with honey-colored skin and long dark brown hair, slightly curly at the bottom. It is no exaggeration to describe him as handsome and charming. If he were placed in the same place where he used to be, he would probably drive a group of women crazy.
"Tikal." Usus nodded lightly to the man.
"Hey, isn't this the person Usus brought back? Don't you want to introduce him?" Tikal looked at the person Usus was holding and said.
"Hello, my name is Qingwu." Qingqing jumped down from Usus's arm lightly, his clothes were slightly picked up by the wind, he brushed his clothes, Qingqing turned around and said to the man named Tikal. This person seemed a little hostile to him, and Qing Qing was not interested in knowing why.
"Users, you guys chat, I'll go shopping by myself." The two people in front of Qingwu were speechless, and then he said to Usus. He was ruthless and unconcerned with other people's affairs. This man came to see Usus, so he didn't need to accompany him.
Seeing that his baby was about to leave, Usus didn't stay long. He nodded to Tikal who was blocking him again, then went around and quickly caught up with his female. Ah Qing's matter was the most important, and he didn't think there was anything to talk about between him and Tikal.
Feeling Wushu's approach, Qingwu raised his eyebrows. Why is it so easy for everyone here to communicate? Usus had been like this when he met other orcs before, and he was like this when he met a female this time. He left without saying anything.
"Aqing." Usus walked behind his baby and called out in a low voice, then bowed and took the little female back into his arms. It was better to hold Ah Qing in his arms to feel at ease. Usus hugged the softness in his arms contentedly.
Is this big guy caring a little too much? Wu Wuqing secretly wondered. Although he knew that Usus liked him, he had never seen him as obviously uneasy as he was today. Although Wu Qing never cared about what others were doing, such a big man carrying an uneasy mood that was inconsistent with his steady personality made Qing Qing a little uncomfortable or not used to it.
"What are you upset about?" Wuqing stretched out his hands to hold Usus' face and asked. Since it made him uncomfortable, he had to solve it.
With his face held by a pair of tender, slightly cool hands, Usus looked straight into his baby's beautiful black eyes, and saw his own appearance reflected clearly in these beautiful eyes.
What are you worried about? Maybe he couldn't talk about it himself, maybe he was afraid of losing his treasure. On those days when the little female ignored him, he was afraid. Now he felt a little uneasy as he had found something lost, and the female in his arms was beautiful and mysterious. He didn't know where the little baby came from, which tribe the female belonged to, and what kind of life she lived in the past? Of course, he never tried to ask. He felt that if his baby wanted to say something, he would naturally tell him.
Facing Usus' silence, Qingwu looked at Usus' uneasy eyes and suddenly smiled. This smile was light and pure, without any hint of temptation. "Silly man, if you keep holding me like this, why should I go shopping later?" Wuqing said.
Seeing his treasure smiling at him, Usus felt that time seemed to have stopped at that moment, and it seemed as if he and Ah Qing were the only two people left in the world around him. It was a beautiful smile that made Usus feel like he was back in spring, when the spring breeze blew in his face and flowers bloomed all over the field. My little female is already very beautiful, and this smile makes her even more beautiful.
Seeing that Usus was still there, dumbfounded and motionless, Wuwu jumped out of Usus' arms, then grabbed one of Usus's fingers and continued walking forward. 'Have you become so charmed by just a smile? fool. ' Wuqing secretly thought in his heart. He thought he probably understood what Usus was worried about, but it was really difficult for him to solve the problem. Things were unpredictable. Who knew what would happen tomorrow?
Feeling his baby leave his arms, Usus came back to his senses. This is the second time my baby has smiled at me! He must make his female smile more in the future.
The negative emotions that Users had accumulated over the past few days disappeared in that pure and beautiful smile. It's useless to be anxious. Of course, you have to protect your baby by yourself. Even if the little baby leaves one day, he can just chase after him.
After thinking about something, Usus obediently let his baby lead him, followed the little female, and walked towards the market block in small steps. Ah Qing is indeed the best female in the world. Although she is still a cub, she is delicate and considerate. She should obviously take care of him, but she is taken care of instead. Usus looked at the small figure walking in front with soft eyes, and a rare smile appeared on his often expressionless face...
