Chapter 153 Find a Model
Several people worked together, and soon they had half a basket full of red and blue flowers.
When I got home, I took out a large ceramic basin, took out all the filaments inside, and then went to the river to wash them.
After rubbing it several times, the petals, which were mostly yellow, turned red.
Xiaomei was very surprised to see such a change, and at this time she gradually understood the concept of dyeing.
“If only I could wear this color!”
Mu Youran helped to pinch the filaments into a ball with her hands and threw it into the ceramic basin next to her.
He smiled and said, “That’s what dyeing means!”
Ma Sizi was panting with exhaustion. Although he was a male, he had never done heavy work in the Mayi tribe. If there was any heavy work he had done, it was probably using bone needles and weaving silk thread.
"Oh, this job is so tiring, how many times do I have to wash it?"
Mu Youran cut up several oranges, squeezed them into juice, and threw them in. "It's too early. At least we have to wash out all the yellow inside."
In order to wash faster, Xiaomei and Caixia took a wooden stick and crushed the flower balls they had made.
After washing, You Ran took out some wood ash water from home and poured it in to rub it.
Soon, the water in the basin turned deep red.
Mu Youran stood up and stretched his tired waist. "Okay, just filter it with linen cloth."
Caixia took the linen that had been prepared long ago, and the petals that had turned red when they were first washed now turned yellow!
Only when there were no impurities in the water did Ma Sizi move it back to the cave.
I cut off a small piece of silk and looked at the red water, feeling a little nervous.
"Should I throw it down now?"
Seeing that he was afraid, Mu Youran took the piece of silk and threw it into the water. The pure white silk turned red visibly.
After soaking it in it for a while, Mu Youran took it out and hung it aside.
Caixia, Xiaomei and Masizi came closer to watch with envy in their eyes.
“This color is so beautiful!”
Mu Youran chuckled, "It's still early. The color is still a little pale. I'll have to dye it again after it dries!"
When Ma Sizi heard that he had to let the cloth dry quickly, he immediately became excited!
"I have wind-type abilities, I'll do it!"
Then a breeze blew towards the silk, and it dried in the blink of an eye.
Xiaomei couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Ma Sizi, I didn't expect you to have wind-related abilities, amazing!"
Being praised suddenly, Masizi felt a little embarrassed. Other people's wind abilities were lethal, but his could only blow a small breeze.
Mu Youran quickly took it off and dyed it repeatedly. She dyed it more than twenty times in total before she achieved the bright red color she wanted.
Finally she walked over, grabbed some salt from a clay pot, added some orange juice, and washed it clean.
This was not done until the red silk stopped fading.
Looking at the red silk spread out on the table, the four people's eyes lit up.
"It's so beautiful!"
"Yeah, I think so too!"
Caixia and Xiaomei's eyes were full of love. Not only them, but Masizi and Youran also liked it very much.
Their hides come in many colors, but none this red.
This was Mu Youran's first time dyeing cloth. She didn't expect that her previous love of reading all kinds of random books was actually useful.
He exhaled a breath of foul air: "Okay, let's go get a large piece of silk to dye."
As they spoke, the four of them started to work. Mu Youran and Xiaomei Caixia stretched the cloth, while Ma Sizi personally cut out a long piece.
The red one is there, but what about the green one?
When it comes to the color green, Mu Youran is very confident. When she was a child, she saw her grandmother dye her uncle's dirty shirt green.
And what they used was a plant on the hillside, and this plant happened to be right at the entrance of the tribe!
This is also the reason why she wanted to dye her hair red first, because she had never seen anyone else dye their hair red.
"Let's leave this red cloth here to soak. Let's go outside and pick some leaves to dye it green!"
There are several frozen green trees with lush branches and leaves that never turn yellow all year round.
Soon a large pile of leaves was brought back. This time the process was not as complicated as before. All I had to do was crush the leaves and then filter them.
After these are done, it’s time to start making clothes!
But there is no fixed rack, and this is the first time they are making such clothes, so they need to be cautious.
"How tall is the Great Wizard?"
This Ma Sizi knew about it. He had the honor to attend the ceremony of the great witch returning to worship the sky and saw it from afar!
"Similar to Chief Ying Yao, but a bit taller than him!"
Mu Youran expressed her understanding, but Ying Yao was busy and could not be allowed to be a model, so her eyes fell on Caixia.
His slender eyebrows raised and he smiled slightly: "Caixia, I would like to ask your partner Ma Xiong to help me, is that okay?"
Caixia waved her hand: "Do you even need to tell me this?"
"Just let him come!"
"Wait, I'll get him over here!"
Ever since she gave birth to the cub, Ma Xiong's favorite thing is to take care of the cub at home whenever he has time, and it would be nice if he could come out to help!
Besides, there are other people taking care of those two kids.
She was actually very interested in what Youran was going to present to the Great Witch. It was a blessing for them to be able to help!
Ma Xiong ran over quickly and looked at the people in the cave, confused.
"What are you going to do?"
Mu Youran smiled mischievously: "Take off your fur skirt right now, then go take a shower, and make sure you wash it clean!"
"what?"
When Ma Xiong heard this, he was so scared that he covered his chest and stepped back.
He looked at his partner Caixia in disbelief: "Caixia, what do you mean?"
Seeing that he was frightened by You Ran's words, Caixia burst into laughter.
Although she didn't know what Youran wanted Ma Xiong to help with, it must be related to that pile of silk!
Such good material, it would be bad if Ma Xiong was too dirty and got things dirty.
"You idiot, if I tell you to take a shower, just go ahead and wash it multiple times with soap!"
"Come here quickly after washing!"
Seeing them laughing together, Ma Xiong felt puzzled, but his partner also laughed like this.
I must have been wrong. Caixia doesn't like to mate in front of people.
I quickly ran back to take a shower.
Ma Sizi took out an exquisite animal hide bag and opened it to reveal a large roll of soft animal hide.
The things inside immediately stunned Caixia and Xiaomei, and even You Ran was shocked.
There were more than a dozen kinds of bone needles densely packed on it, ranging from small to large, from thick to thin, neatly inserted on it.
Then he took out several large rolls of silk thread and hemp thread and placed them neatly on the table.
Mu Youran is not very good at needlework, but Xiaomei and Caixia are very good at sewing. Seeing such delicate needlework, he suddenly felt that his life was too rough.
"Your Ma Yi tribe is so powerful!"
Ma Sizi was very proud to say this!
Just kidding, their Ma Yi tribe is famous for making linen. A piece of linen is worth one hundred seashells. All of them are engaged in growing hemp and making linen, so of course they are rich.
Moreover, they never need to hunt for their own meat, they just buy it with money.
Now that new cloth has been made, the lives of their Ma Yi tribe will only get better and better in the future.
