MTL - Be a Leader In a Primitive Tribe-Chapter 46

A few women were gossiping, but they heard Da Mi, who came back from the door, yelled anxiously as soon as he opened the door: "Sister-in-law Liu is about to give birth."

When Sang Yu decided to hold a school earlier, she had paid great attention to setting an example for the children around her, including the names they called each other.

These children also know how to call people now, and they no longer call adults by their names directly.

"Ah, it's about to give birth, ouch, I just said it's been a few days, it's really not bad."

"This is the first child born to the Phoenix Tribe since its establishment. The leader must be very happy."

"The leader is really a good person. She doesn't love any child, and she specially let Cibang take care of it, and the food for them is not bad. If my child was still alive before..."

Lu next to her couldn't help sobbing, and the other women's faces became heavy to varying degrees when they heard this.

Most of the women in the tribe had children or had children, but they always died due to various reasons.

Even if you can grow up, you may not be able to come back alive if you go out to hunt.

Zhi also had a child who died young, but Zhuang Neng grew up so well, this is the only thing she can be thankful for.

Seeing that the emotions of everyone in the room were infected by Lu, Zhi hurriedly said: "Don't be sad, everyone is still young, and they can regenerate in the future. With the leader here, she will definitely have a way to keep the child. Now we don't have to go hunting. No one will starve to death or freeze to death anymore, if you see something right, go and tell the leader. When the time comes, you will live together and become husband and wife, and you can have as many children as you want."

After hearing what she said, the women gradually calmed down from crying, and quickly remembered the business.

Lian hurriedly put the straw sandals on the kang, got off the kang and went to Liu's kang room.

When I arrived, I saw Gao walking up and down outside the house, his face full of anxiety.

It is one thing to be happy to have a child, but it is only alive when it is actually born.

In the house, Sang Yu was already there, instructing Xiang to prepare some prenatal things.

The kang house is connected to the stove, and there is always hot water.

The knife that had scalded the wound and eunuched the piglet was also cleaned and disinfected, in case of emergency.

Liu's painful voice came and went, and the people in the room also felt agitated. People in other rooms also knew that Liu was going to have a baby, and rushed over to have a look. Seeing this, Sang Yu hurriedly asked them to go back first. , There are too many people, crowded, and the air is turbid.

Just leave the incense and sparrows.

Seeing the leader's upright figure and calm face, everyone couldn't help but feel relieved.

That's right, with the leader here, there is nothing to be afraid of.

But what they don't know is that Sang Yu is not omnipotent, and she has almost zero knowledge about childbirth.

But at this time, she has to stay here to see if she needs help. This help is to see if she can use modern knowledge to give some advice after something goes wrong. But if it's just about giving birth, she really doesn't understand.

Hearing Liu's heart-piercing cry, he looked at the big flickering eyes of the little girl by the door.

Sang Yu said to her: "What are you looking at, children? You will live with me starting today, and make room for your sister-in-law Liu's little baby to sleep in."

Yu and Xiang live together, both in this room.

Except for her, there are big women in the room. Now Liu gave birth to a child, she is a child, it is better to live with her.

Yu Pa pulled the door and looked at it for a while, then went to Sang Yu's room as promised.

Fortunately, not long after Liu tossed about, a girl was born at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Sang Yu's small sharp knife was useless, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In the past, when the tribe gave birth, they were wrapped in animal skins directly after birth.

But in fact, the baby comes out of the mother's womb, wrapped in amniotic fluid, and comes out with some dirty things. If it is not washed off, it is easy to get sick.

Bathing a newborn baby can make her skin clean and comfortable, promote skin metabolism and so on.

Under Sang Yu's guidance, Xiang hugged the child and washed it with warm water, then wrapped it in a piece of clean animal skin prepared in advance, and carried it to her mother.

Gao was finally allowed to come in at this time, looking at his tired wife, the pain on his face was clearly revealed.

He walked around the house with the baby in his arms, took care of him personally, and then went back.

Sang Yu didn't think about this problem in advance, and didn't prepare a kang room for Liu and Gao, a young couple, so that Gao could take care of his wife.

Now we all live together, and it is difficult for a man taller to get in and out. The work of taking care of children and giving birth falls on the women in the same room.

Fortunately, there is no need to work during this time, and it is boring to lie down all day. Now that such a little guy comes out, everyone finds it novel and fun, and doesn't feel disturbed.

In any case, adding a small life to the tribe is a very exciting thing, and Sang Yu is also very happy.

Now let Zhuang take people to the river, like last year, dig a big hole in it, catch some fish, and all the staff will add food tonight.

When the leader is happy, everyone is in a good mood, and they are even happier when they hear about the extra meal.

Now that there is a fixed kang, these strong young men still feel that the house is stuffy. When they heard that they were going to go fishing, they put on a small animal skin and carried a basket on their backs and went to the river.

These people who came back from the Eagle Tribe had never seen fish before, and they wanted to see how to fish in this weather, so they all went.

Fortunately, Zhuang still remembered something, so only three or four people went up together.

I'm afraid that if there are too many people, if the ice in the river is not strong, it will be a big trouble if it falls into it.

Last year it was Zhuang and Gao who did the hands-on exercises. This year, they did it again. Zhuang kept the process in mind and quickly made a big hole.

After holding back for half a month, the fish finally found a place to breathe fresh air, scrambling to poke their chubby heads out of the hole.

The boys Zhuang and Wu jointly lowered the rattan basket to the entrance of the cave, which stunned the group of people by the river.

After returning home, Yuan had already boiled hot water in the kitchen, took a few young men to kill fish together, and then sent two to each room for everyone to have a full meal.

Under Sang Yu's order, an extra room was added in Liu's room, saying that the pregnant woman drank fish soup to produce more milk.

In fact, compared with other people, Liu and Sangyu lived earlier, and their quality of life has gradually improved. Before pregnancy, their bodies were slowly recuperating. After pregnancy, the conditions of the tribe are getting better day by day. As a pregnant woman, she Also received special care, the milk is sufficient.

Seeing Liu's treatment, everyone was envious.

Que also said the same thing as Zhizhi, telling them to get married quickly, and they will be treated in the same way when they have children.

Sang Yu didn't hear this, and if she did, she might have another opinion.

It stands to reason that in this era, the population of the tribe and the country largely determines the size of the tribe.

Especially when it comes to production and waging wars, the party with a larger population often has a great advantage.

Population is also a necessary condition for the Phoenix Tribe to grow rapidly. However, under the current extremely low production conditions, there are many children and a large population, so that they can survive with quality is actually a big problem.

At the same time, management also requires more energy.

At present, the tribe already has a certain production and defense population, and Sang Yu thinks it is not necessary to be so aggressive.

Developing technology to improve the quality of life and work efficiency will be much better than blindly developing population. At the same time, population development does not necessarily have to have children, but can also be achieved by absorbing the population of other tribes.

In short, she does not want women to be reduced to reproductive tools for the growth of the tribe.

Look at them, if you want to give birth, you will give birth if you don't want to, and no one will force you. Anyway, the tribe will start to build a medical pension system from now on, to ensure that the pension system can be put into use in the next few decades, and to put an end to the idea of ​​raising children for old age.

Because the idea of ​​raising children to protect the old will encourage the evil trend of patriarchy to a certain extent.

However, at this time, there is almost no contraceptive means, and the current living conditions of the tribe are getting better and better, and there will still be a breakthrough in the population to a certain extent.

The children Gao Heliu were very well-behaved and didn't make much trouble. They woke up to eat, ate and slept, subverting Sang Yu's concept of newborn children in his memory.

Maybe all the children of ancient humans were like this, Sang Yu doesn't know, and they can compare when there are children born in the future.

Everyone in the tribe has come to see this child and found that she is much rounder than other children, and she is very cute and tender. This may be due to the fact that the mother had a better life during pregnancy.

The child looked lively and lovely. The couple were overjoyed and asked the leader to name him for him.

Sang Yu didn't refuse, and felt that the tribe's current naming needs to be reformed. Children are born with a single word, and it is difficult to distinguish when the words are used up.

She also didn't force the surnames of the hundred families into it. The best way is for the child to use the names of the parents or ancestors as the surname. In addition, she can also use the surnames she likes in the surnames of the hundred families, and then inherit them from generation to generation.

However, what she didn't expect was that Liu asked to use the leader's surname as their child's surname.

For the couple, Sangyu means more than their ancestors and parents.

The arrival of Yu Liu and Sang Yu, from punishing her lamely to stand up for herself, to now leading everyone to live a good life, everything I have is due to her.

Gao is now honored as Sangyu's right-hand man, and today's glory is brought by her. His gratitude to Sangyu is no less than that of Liu.

Sang Yu didn't want to do this at first, but this child means a lot to the whole tribe. Moreover, it was she who spoke first, and the child could have any surname he wanted, so she finally agreed to their request.

The child's name was finally decided, and it was called Sang Jing, which represented the new hope of the tribe and the infinite longing for the future.

The name of the tribe's first newborn baby was born, and it was still two characters. Everyone told everyone, and the women were envious. They hoped that if they had children in the future, they would be named by the leader, and they would become the first children of the Phoenix tribe to grow up.

Sang Yu was also very happy in her heart. After staying in that room for a long time, she explained to Xiang what she knew about mothers and infants, so that she could accumulate some proven knowledge in this area in the future. experience.

When I went back at night, it was already dark, and when I entered the house, the little girl had already burned the kang, and was sitting by the bed, cutting something with a bone knife.

Sang Yu's feet were cold, and she felt pain after being frozen for a long time. The body of a southerner couldn't bear it in this kind of ice and snow.

As soon as my body sticks to the edge of the kang, I feel warm and comfortable. Then he threw the animal skin on his body to the end of the bed.

"Little devil, my feet are so cold, I want to soak them."

Holding the bone knife in his hand, Yu paused for a moment, didn't say anything, put down the things in his hand in the next moment, and got out of bed to scoop water.

The kang is connected to the stove, and water is added to the stove, which is steaming hot.

To boil water, put snow cubes directly outside the house, and melt them after entering the house for a while.

Nowadays, there is no industrial pollution in this era. As long as the snow water outside has not been trampled, it can be collected and boiled to drink.

The hot kang brought Sang Yu back to life, and her feet gradually warmed up, but she still needed to soak to promote blood circulation.

The water was a little hot, so I grabbed a few handfuls of snow and adjusted the temperature before putting my feet in it.

Sang Yu enjoyed the heat of her feet very much, so she took Yu to soak together. The little girl had no choice but to put her feet in too. But he leaned to the side cautiously, for fear of bumping into Sang Yu's feet.

Sang Yu smiled, raised her foot and stepped on her little foot to soak it in the hot water.

"Why, you hate me, you dare not touch my feet anymore."

The little girl's ears were red, and she didn't struggle to move away, but suddenly asked, "Will you have children in the future?"

Sang Yu froze for a moment, she really hadn't thought about this question. But at least for now, the thought of asking her to find a wild man to live with and have children makes her feel bad, not now, and probably not in the future.

"I have so many children now, I don't want any more."

Yu was startled when he heard this: "You have a child!"

Sang Yu chuckled and said, "Isn't Xiao Sangjing my child? She has taken my surname, and there are so many children in the tribe. The rice is two and three meters long, and there is Xiaodu, and Qing, and so on." -you."

Yu shook his head without thinking, "I'm not, I don't want to find myself a mother."

Sang Yu reached out and rubbed her little face and said, "Okay, I'll be your big sister."
