Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family

The two men came to the downstream, and Ban Mu used his sharp claws to cut open the belly of the prey. He usually threw away the internal organs, but Cheng Mo said he wanted to stay today, so he put the internal organs in a bamboo basket and handed it to Cheng Mo.

Cheng Mo cleaned the internal organs first, then took out a fruit and squeezed it open. The powder inside could clean these things very well. Then he cleaned the large intestine separately. Fortunately, bison eat grass, so the things in the intestines don't smell as strong as those of carnivores. By the time he finally cleaned them all, the sun was about to set.

Just then, Banmu had finished dealing with the prey, and the two of them walked back slowly. The cave was located on the mountainside, and the path was still very troublesome to walk on. Cheng Mo walked carefully on the path and said to Banmu with a smile: "Banmu, I will build a road in the future so that it will be convenient for me to go home."

"Okay." Ban Mu followed him worriedly. If Cheng Mo hadn't said that he wanted to see if he could find anything else on the road, he would have flown back with Cheng Mo long ago.

Cheng Mo walked and looked around expectantly. There were a lot of food nearby, but he usually had too many things to think about and didn't have much time to look carefully. This was a good opportunity to take a good look at the things around him.

Unexpectedly, he really found it. Looking at the wild ginger growing in the corner, Cheng Mo happily put down what he was doing and started digging. Ginger has the effects of dispelling cold, warming the middle and stopping vomiting, warming the lungs and stopping coughs, and detoxifying. It is often used for colds, spleen and stomach coldness, stomach cold vomiting, lung cold coughs, and detoxification of fish and crabs. With ginger, fish will taste better in the future!

Banmu also wanted to help, but Cheng Mo waved his hand to refuse him. He could finish digging by himself. Cheng Mo happily pointed to the inconspicuous weeds on the ground and said, "Banmu, this is a good thing! It's a pity that there are not many around. Let's save some for planting!"

Ban Mu looked carefully at the ginger in Cheng Mo's hand and said, "Xiao Mo, I'll find it for you. I'll find a lot."

Cheng Mo smiled and dug even harder.

Cheng Mo happily returned to his residence with a bunch of things. He put down what he was doing and prepared to show his skills. First, cut the beef into small cubes, soaked it in water to remove the blood, and then put it in cold water and blanch it with ginger slices to remove the fishy smell. While waiting for the water to boil, Cheng Mo went out and brought back a bundle of dry firewood. Seeing this, Ban Mu also went out to look for dry firewood. There were many branches blown down by the wind in the valley. After a while, Ban Mu brought back a large pile.

"Banmu, shall we build a door tomorrow? It's uncomfortable to have the wind outside blowing in without a door!" Cheng Mo said as he fished out the blanched beef. "A door is made by splitting a tree into suitable sizes and making it into wooden boards. Then it is placed at the entrance of the cave to block the wind and shade the light."

"Okay, we'll install a door tomorrow." Ban Mu replied as he broke the dry firewood in his hand into small pieces. He didn't ask Cheng Mo when the door would be built, nor did he know what the function of the door was. As long as Cheng Mo wanted it, he would do his best to give it to him.

Cheng Mo squinted his eyes and smiled, then cut the white radish into pieces of similar size and put them into the beef to stew.

After a while, the smell of beef and white radish drifted in the cave. Cheng Lingqu twisted her little butt anxiously and screamed.

"Oh! Daddy's sweetheart has woken up. Are you hungry?" Cheng Mo picked up Cheng Lingqu.

"Ah! Ah!" Cheng Lingqu was so anxious that he almost spoke.

"Don't worry, don't worry, let Dad check if it's ready." Cheng Mo lifted the lid of the pot, and a rich aroma wafted out. He sprinkled salt in and said, "Okay, Banmu, let's eat."

Ban Mu walked to the corner silently, washed his hands with water, and then scooped out three bowls of soup. Cheng Mo took the soup from Ban Mu's hand and blew it carefully. Cheng Lingqu looked up at Cheng Mo with big eyes. Cheng Mo nodded at Cheng Lingqu's nose with a smile: "Come on, little greedy cat, I'll feed you when it's cold."

Ban Mu quickly finished his meal and took the child from Cheng Mo's arms. He took the cooled soup and fed it to Cheng Lingqu mouthful by mouthful. Cheng Lingqu cried out after eating a mouthful, as if urging him to eat. Ban Mu made sure that Cheng Lingqu had finished eating before feeding him the next mouthful. The two of them got along quite well...

the next day--

Cheng Mo got up early and finished washing up. Breakfast was still warming in the pot, but Ban Mu was nowhere to be seen and no one knew when he went out.

Cheng Mo took care of everything, picked up a bamboo basket and held the child and went out. His main task today was to find a tree to build a door and find some food.

Wandering around in the valley, Cheng Mo didn't see any suitable trees, but he found an star anise tree and a bamboo forest. The bamboo forest grew at the back of the valley and was blocked by a mountain. One could not see the bamboo forest without going around the mountain. Cheng Mo was delighted to find that there were still a few bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest. Probably because it was the wrong season, he only found two bamboo shoots and no more. There was, however, a large patch of wood ear mushrooms.

Cheng Mo happily took these things back and found that Ban Mu was still not at home. Instead, there were two processed burning beasts and three processed burning beast skins on the ground. Touching the three skins, Cheng Mo happily folded the skins and put them in the corner.

Seeing the sun getting bigger and bigger outside, and Banmu not coming back yet, Cheng Mo couldn't help but feel a little worried. Usually Banmu would come back a long time ago, why hasn't he come back today? Did something happen? Cheng Mo looked up from time to time while cooking.

When Cheng Mo finished cooking, Banmu had not returned yet. Cheng Mo could not help but stand at the entrance of the cave and look into the distance. A black dot appeared in the distance. Cheng Mo squinted and looked carefully. When the black dot came closer, he realized that it was Banmu. Banmu flew back carrying a thick wooden board on his back.

When Banmu landed, Cheng Mo found that he was covered with sawdust and sweat. Cheng Mo gave Banmu a thumbs up in admiration: "Banmu, you are awesome! I just mentioned it yesterday, and you came back with the door panel today."

Ban Mu smiled embarrassedly. He went out hunting early in the morning. When he came back and saw that Cheng Mo was not there, he knew that Cheng Mo must have gone out to find food. So he went out to find the door that Cheng Mo mentioned. He didn't know what the door looked like, so he cut down a huge tree, split the tree bit by bit and ground it into the shape of a board.

Cheng Mo poured some water for Ban Mu: "Wipe yourself first, I'll serve you some rice."

After Banmu cleaned up and finished his meal, Cheng Mo was playing around with the wooden board. To be honest, the wooden board Banmu brought back was very thick and long. He needed to measure the size of the door frame and then make the door panel and hinge. The door panel was the easiest to make, but the hinge required delicate operation, otherwise it would not be able to be assembled when the time comes.

Cheng Mo first asked Banmu to cut a small piece of wood to make a simple measuring tool. After measuring the size, he marked the hinge pattern and cut the hinge pattern with Banmu's sharp claws. The next step was to assemble the hinges together. There are many rubber trees growing here. The sap left after cutting the bark is better than glue after drying, and it can be used again after heating. So Cheng Mo asked Banmu to bring back a lot of rubber tree sap and assemble the hinges together bit by bit.

Looking at the hinges he assembled, Cheng Mo wanted to take a picture with his mobile phone. After all, it was made by hand. Although it was not as delicate as modern hinges, it was still usable. Cheng Mo happily installed the door. Looking at the home that was taking shape, he felt a sense of pride. This was his home, which he built bit by bit with his own hands!
