Four months have passed since I started helping, and I turned 11 years old. The contents of the help included drawing water twice in a week, catching a hole mouse once, catching a fish once, and after that, when I noticed it, I helped a little bit.
Thanks to all of you, my cold gaze seems to have loosened. It’s my parents’ fault that it’s not completely gone. According to the women, half a year has passed since my parents stopped helping me.
Perhaps because I’m helping out in various ways, I hear a lot of stories from the women. I thought it was time to bring it to the Refugee Council. But it’s still early, isn’t it? I don’t know what will happen in the future, but I doubt if those parents will change their minds.
Oh yeah, I’ve also done things other than groceries. It is the creation of mattresses and comforters.
Of course, I didn’t have cloth, so I made everything with just leaves and dry grass. Make a small hole in the palm-sized leaf with a branch, and pass the long thin grass through the hole and tie another leaf on top of it. If you connect dozens or hundreds of them, a sheet of leaves is completed.
Make two sheets, spread dry grass between them, and finally make holes in the edges of the sheets and connect them with long grass. The hardest part was tying the long grass. You have to tie a lot, and if you use too much force, it will tear.
Thanks to the time I spent creating it in my spare time, the mattress and the comforter were completed! But, as soon as it was completed, it was taken away by my parents. Kuh, it’s frustrating… I could have predicted this would happen, but it’s frustrating. Both are now comforters for two people.
I decided to recreate it again. It’s frustrating, so let’s make something better next time! I thought, but if I made a better one, it would be stolen again, so I stopped. I made it in the same way, and this time I made a mattress and comforter for myself.
Thanks to making the futon, dirt and grass no longer stick to my clothes, and I can keep my body cleaner than before. It must have been difficult to remove the weeds from your clothes every morning.
Speaking of beauty, I bathe once every two days. There’s no soap or anything like that, but if you wash it carefully with water, even the dirt can be removed. However, I feel unsatisfactory when my hair lacks luster. I wonder if there’s a fruit that can be used for oil that goes well with my hair.
Come to think of it, I also wash clothes between bathing. I’m a refugee, but I have two clothes. It’s hard to stay in clothes all the time, so I’m saved by this. After bathing as a routine, wash the clothes you are wearing, change into new clothes, and hang the washed clothes to dry. repeating this.
I’m going to go to town eventually, so I should clean myself up a little. I think just being a refugee gives a bad impression. That’s why I decided to do my best to improve my impression.
When I took a bath, I rolled up dry grass and rubbed it with it, and the dirt came off and my skin became beautiful. If you make such a small effort, you will be teased by the women, thinking that you have found someone you like. I didn’t mean to.
When I remembered the memories of my previous life, I despaired about my current circumstances, but now I think it was good to remember. If things had gone as they were, they might have been kicked out of the refugee village. I think it was a good opportunity.
I thought that memories of my previous life would be useless in a place like this, but I was saved by having unexpectedly useful knowledge. All I know is the TV and movies I watched to pass the time, but thanks to that, I was able to avoid being kicked out.
I still don’t have enough trust, but if I continue my life as it is, I wonder if I’ll be able to have a normal conversation with everyone. That’s why I have to do my best to catch the hole mouse today.
“Okay, today’s target is six.”
With a stone axe and a long branch with earthworms, I searched for a hole for a hole mouse. Look at the base of the tree, look in the grass.
By the way, the holes once captured are marked. If you stick a branch next to the entrance, it’s obvious, easy to understand. That’s why when I look for it, I also make sure it doesn’t exist.
“Ah, there it was.”
I was able to find a gaping hole when I was looking for a bush. The hole is a little bigger than the one you usually see. A lot of the soil near the entrance was also scraped away, and I sensed that there were a lot of rats inside.
“This looks like a lot.”
While being excited, I placed a stone ax and a large basket on the ground and put the branches inside. Wait for a while if you insert the branch to the very limit of the doorway. Then the branch began to move and be pulled toward the back.
Without hesitation, he grabs the branch and draws it in. The hole mouse sticks its head out to the doorway, still clinging to the branch. When you place a branch on the ground and step on it with your foot to stop it, you pick up the stone axe and swing it up and down with all your might.
“quick”
With a short scream, the hole rat fainted. If you give it another blow, the hole rat will twitch and lose its strength. First is the first one.
Without a break, I caught and hit a hole mouse, and caught and hit it again and again. Apparently, there were a lot of adult rats living in this hole, and no matter what I tried, they would bite one after another.
In the end, I was able to catch a total of 7 cave rats from this hole, which was a big catch. When I looked at them side by side, I found two large and five slightly smaller ones. Apparently, the family lived in one hole.
“I hope the meat for tomorrow’s soup is a little bigger.”
I’m happy to have one more than I expected. I can’t stop smiling on my face when I’m happy, fufufu. I put the hole rats in the basket I brought, but they didn’t all fit. I’m going to have two of them on hand.
With a hole mouse and a stone ax in one hand, and a hole mouse and a stick in the other, he stood up. The happy weight makes my feet wobble a little. I walked to the square with unsteady steps.
◇
When I went to the square, the ladies were making soup for lunch.
“Hello, I caught a hole mouse.”
“Oh, thank you. Leave it around there, I’ll dismantle it later.”
“Yes”
As the woman told me to leave it there and go back.
“Is there anything I can help you with?”
“No, not today.
At that time, I was about to take my word and bring my own bowl. The inside of the pot that I glanced at was different from usual. It looked like it had a lot of vegetables in it.
“That. Today’s soup, isn’t there a lot of vegetables?”
“Hey, the rations are coming soon. I put in all the leftovers. It looks like I made a bit of a distribution mistake this time.”
When I heard the story, I understood. Well, today is the long-awaited distribution day.
“Sry for the late of the update, got too tried after exam and some stupid homework, and i will try update it 3 chapter everytime i update untill caught to the raw, and please expect that this irregular update”
