On the first night upon reaching Northern Ridge, the Zhao Family lay on the ground.
Various rustling sounds filled their ears, and the vast darkness surrounded them, but they were too exhausted to care much about it.
Fortunately, they had saved a few rabbit skins along the way, using them as mattresses underneath, which kept the dampness at bay.
However, building a house had to be scheduled no matter what.
Early the next morning upon getting up, Qi Yue immediately assigned the tasks for the day.
Shen Yu and a few younger sisters went to pick wild vegetables for cooking, Zhao Yongzhe and Zhao Yonglian went to chop trees, and Zhao Xiyan stayed home while also gathering firewood.
Cong Zhongyu carried two little ones on her back and followed Shen Yu to identify and pick wild vegetables.
Qi Yue, worried that they might pick up some useless stuff, took a few people nearby for a walk.
They unexpectedly found a lot of perilla and quite a few dandelions.
