When Yang Cheng brought Xia to the warehouse, many people from the living department were already making clothes while taking advantage of the light of the fire.
Except for Yang Cheng and the people in the Life Department, no one else knew about making clothes.
Just now when we were drinking porridge and burning firecrackers, the clan members of the Life Department did not show off, just to give the clan members a surprise.
"witch."
Seeing Yang Cheng and Xia walking in, more than a dozen people from the life department shouted softly.
"Light ball technique."
Yang Chengfang released a light ball in mid-air, which suddenly lit up the entire warehouse.
"Okay, you all hurry up. After finishing the remaining dozen or so clothes, you can go back and rest."
Yang Cheng waved his hand and told the people in the life department to be polite.
After they said "yes", they sat down and continued to make clothes carefully.
With the assistance of the light ball technique, there were more than ten people in the living department, each with one piece of clothing, and the remaining dozen or so pieces of clothing were ready in no time.
After the people from the living department finished their work, Yang Cheng asked them to leave early.
He and Xia haven't left yet because they need to sort the clothes into categories.
There are more than a hundred sets of clothes, and the sizes are not exactly the same.
For example, the clothes of totem warriors are relatively large, and they are all in large sizes. This is because totem warriors have strong bodies, are blessed with qi and blood, and are much larger than ordinary people.
The clothes of the female tribesmen are smaller, and the clothes of the children in the Qingque tribe are even more different. They are divided into three sizes: large, medium and small, but they are all relatively large.
This is to take into account the growth of children and their body size. Although the Qingque tribe is not bad at animal skins, they still need to wear them for a longer time at least.
After sorting it out a bit.
Yang Cheng completely extinguished the fire in the warehouse, and then returned to the house with Xia.
Several of the beast-eared girls in the house were already asleep.
Looking at the quilt that was kicked to the ground by them again, Yang Cheng sighed, picked it up from the ground and covered them again.
These little pigs slept soundly and didn't think about him. They had to get up early tomorrow to distribute clothes to everyone!
Yang Cheng now feels like he is back to the pain of getting up early on the first day of the new year.
The next day.
When Yan Lin woke up from bed and rubbed her eyes, she found that Yang Cheng was not around.
"witch?"
Yan Lin shouted several times.
This made her a little curious and confused. On weekdays, Yang Cheng slept harder than them. After they woke up, Yang Cheng still pulled the animal skin quilt and did not wake up.
But today, when they woke up, they found Yang Cheng's figure.
Yan Lin pushed Xing and the other beast-eared girls next to her, asking everyone to look for Yang Cheng together.
At this time, they discovered that not only Yang Cheng was missing, but also Xia was missing.
"What did Wu and Xia do?"
The witches were puzzled. They discovered that they were mysterious last night and suddenly disappeared early this morning.
Just when Yan Lin and the others were confused and making their own guesses.
Suddenly, they heard the noise coming from outside.
The witches quickly got dressed and ran out.
But in the open space of the Qingque tribe's house, a wooden table was placed in the middle. Yang Cheng put his hands together and made some kind of gesture with everyone.
After each one was finished, Xia next to him took a piece of clothing from the wooden table and handed it to him.
"Wu Wu, what are you doing?"
Yan Lin and a group of beast-eared girls ran over and asked curiously.
"Happy New Year."
Yang Cheng smiled and said: "Yan Lin, happy new year, Xing, happy new year, Lulu, happy new year..."
He congratulated all the beast-eared girls and held their hands together.
The witches felt very awkward about Yang Cheng's hand-off etiquette. This was not a popular etiquette method among tribes in the wilderness.
However, after they thought about it, they understood the meaning.
"Witch, happy new year."
"Witch, happy new year."
…
Yan Lin and Xing also imitated Yang Cheng's movements and saluted Yang Cheng.
After they finished their New Year greetings, Xia handed them several sets of new clothes from the female clansmen.
"Yan Lin, Xing, Lulu, Ying, Tao, these are your new clothes." Xia said with a smile.
Yan Lin and the others took the new clothes, looked at them a few times, and asked in confusion: "New clothes?"
Yang Cheng smiled and explained: "Yes, this is the surprise I told you last night. It's a new year and you need to wear new clothes. You should go back to the house and change clothes."
"So that's it."
When they heard that this was a surprise given to them by Yang Cheng, they saw that many of the tribesmen who had already received their clothes and changed had become very good-looking.
The witches suddenly became excited and couldn't wait to run back to the house to change clothes.
After they left, Yang Cheng paid New Year's greetings to several tribesmen and gave them new clothes.
At this time, Mu Qing came over.
He had been feeling amazing for the past few days.
As an old man of the Qingque tribe, he has been following the previous shaman. This is the first time he heard about the New Year and the need to use firecrackers to drive away the Nian beast.
At this time, seeing Yang Cheng distributing clothes to everyone again, he came over curiously and imitated Yang Cheng's bow of hands, saying New Year's greetings.
Then they chatted for a while and asked Yang Cheng what "Nian" and "Nian Beast" were.
Yang Cheng didn't think much and talked to Mu Qing. The year is a unit of time, the beginning and end of spring, summer, autumn and winter. As for the Nian beast, Yang Cheng used what he said yesterday to prevaricate him.
Mu Qing has been working with sundials and dripping devices during this period, and is very sensitive to the concepts of "time" and "years".
Hearing Yang Cheng's casual words, his eyes lit up and he said: "So Wu, can we be considered the first year now?"
Mu Qing's words reminded Yang Cheng.
Now that the New Year is over, it’s time to give it a name.
Yang Cheng pondered for a while and said: "Well, forget about the first year, let's call it Qingque's second year now."
"The second year of Qingque?"
Mu Qing was confused for a moment, but soon understood.
Qingque is the name of their tribe, and isn't the second year that Yang Cheng has become the shaman of the Qingque tribe?
After thinking about it, Mu Qing felt that this was a great name.
Then, he seemed to have thought of something again, and walked away murmuring excitedly.
Looking at Mu Qing walking away, Yang Cheng shook his head and continued to send clothes to the next clan member for New Year greetings.
Learning and imitating are human instincts, especially with Yang Cheng taking the lead. Soon this way of greeting the New Year spread among the Qingque tribe.
People of each tribe wear new clothes and hold hands with each other to pay New Year greetings.
The lively atmosphere was not even less than last night when we set off firecrackers to drive away the Nian beast.
After Yang Cheng gave the last piece of clothing to his tribe, he stood up and basked in the warm winter sunshine. He watched this scene with a smile on his face.
