Chapter 1043: Changle

~7 min read 1,307 words

The Leader and the others were also happy; in this era, it is normal for people to meet and immediately be together, while talking of love for a year or half a year before being together is purely a fantasy. Everyone was happy to be able to find a good man for their sister.

Furthermore, just as the Leader said, giving their sister to Changle was not a problem; he could make this decision. Even if he were not there, Ayuduo could make the decision herself. Her special status was nothing more than being the daughter of Chiyou and her identity as a highly gifted Miao physician; other than that, she was just a Miao physician.

Of course, if Ayuduo had chosen an ordinary man from Huaxia, that certainly would not have done. At the very least, handing over a capable Miao woman like Baibai to an outsider would be a great loss; even for an ordinary woman, it would be a bit of a loss. But Changle's status destined that this marriage would not cause the Jiuli to suffer a loss.

Naturally, they had to celebrate such a good day, so the few of them did not continue to stay by Changle's tent, but went to their own camp to celebrate with their tribesmen, cheering around the bonfire.

This was a first for Changle, and because Huaxia was relatively conservative, at least Changle had never seen the scene of two savages mating at will in broad daylight, so he was very slow and very confused about what was happening right now.

However, Ayuduo was different; she had seen it, and Yangasha would also tell her about these things. As a Miao physician, she was also relatively knowledgeable, so for the first time, it was Ayuduo who took the lead.

These two young people, in a small tent in the wilderness, completed the first time of their lives. After the two were exhausted, Changle still felt that everything was not very real. He really wanted to learn from how his father treated his mother and say some more romantic love words, but he could not say them.

Lying there so awkwardly did not feel right either, so he steered the topic to Ayuduo's attire. Through Ayuduo's explanation, he learned that the women of their Jiuli wore the stars and moon, while their men would wear decorations like ox horns or tie their hair into the shape of ox horns.

In their view, the ox is mighty and strong, the embodiment of power and courage. That horn is the Warrior Horn; ordinary people are not qualified to wear it. It is the same for women wearing the stars and moon; only those with status can do so. After all, whether made of jade or Bronze, these ornaments made into circular or arc shapes are very expensive.

At this time, Changle also touched the moon on Ayuduo's forehead and said, "When we return to Huaxia, I will have people craft a larger and more beautiful moon for you out of gold, make you a string out of gemstones, and use the best jade and the best gemstones to make you stars to wear on your shoulders."

Changle's bold words made Ayuduo blush: "Is this what you call romance?"

"Oh, perhaps this is romance, but this is what I want to do for you."

Changle pointed again to a small bamboo segment that Ayuduo had tied to her chest and never taken off, asking, "What kind of decoration is this? Why do you always have to wear it?"

"This is a Gu, the Life Gu I raised. I have been raising it since I was small. It can protect me; it is very powerful. It is also because it is here that no insects or poisonous snakes will approach me."

Changle was very confused: "Life... Gu? What kind of thing is it? Can I see it?"

Ayuduo shook her head: "No, you cannot. It is protecting me, so I must also protect it; I cannot let it leave me."

"I see, alright then."

Changle did not forcefully demand that Ayuduo show him, but he still felt it was a bit strange for someone to have this thing tied to their chest. But since Ayuduo was unwilling, then so be it.

After Changle finished asking, Ayuduo began to ask about her own doubts: "Why is your tent like this? Lying inside, one cannot feel a bit of wind."

"This tent of mine is basically the best in all of Huaxia. One layer of Hemp Cloth, one layer of Silk, one layer of animal hide; it keeps out the wind and the rain. And there are also Buttons; they can be fastened on the outside or fastened on the inside, so the tent won't open, the wind can't get in, and insects can't get in."

Ayuduo pulled on Changle's clothes: "It's this, right? Is it called a Button? I almost couldn't undo it."

"But you said there was also a layer of Silk; is it that kind of Silk from the Xiling?"

Changle directly took Ayuduo's hand to touch the inner tent: "There is no light now, so you can't see what it is like, but you can touch it. Is it slippery? It is different from cloth."

Ayuduo touched the Silk with her fingers; it was very slippery, but it also felt like it caught on her fingers a bit. The texture was much better than cloth, but she was still surprised: "Isn't Silk extremely precious? The Xiling rarely trade it. If it weren't for the Xiling being with the Xuanyuan Tribe now, we wouldn't be able to see Silk at all. Every time our Jiuli comes to trade, we can only take away very little Silk, and after going back, it can only be used for sacrifices; it cannot be made into these things. I have only seen it from afar and have never touched it like this."

"Do you like Silk? If you like it, I can use Silk to cover your entire room. In our Huaxia, Silk is as abundant as cloth. The Nobles of our Huaxia all use Silk to make clothes to wear, and I also have many, many Silk clothes."

"After you arrive in Huaxia, I can have people make you countless clothes."

Ayuduo's face blushed again. She was becoming more and more satisfied with Changle. He was good-looking, he didn't smell, he had wealth, he had power, and he was even willing to give them to her. These were things she might not necessarily be able to get in the Jiuli, but here with Changle, she had already received the promise.

"Can you really give me these? Is your father willing? And your brother? After all, you said that Huaxia will be managed by your brother."

Changle hugged Ayuduo tightly: "Don't worry about that. I will have everything I should have in Huaxia. My father will not let me lack wealth, and my brother will not harm me. In Huaxia, you can possess countless wealth and live the best life."

"In Huaxia, you can do anything you want to do. After you become a person of Huaxia, you can even be an official in Huaxia, which is a Leader, and can lead others to do the things you want to do, such as collecting various Grass and flowers like me, to identify them, to search for them."

Ayuduo stared tightly at Changle's eyes: "Then can I use paper? I also want to record my knowledge on paper."

"Of course you can. You can use as much of Huaxia's paper as you want. In this world, only Huaxia has paper. The paper of the Xuanyuan Tribe is also our Huaxia's. I will not lack paper, and neither will you. In Huaxia, paper is not precious."
