I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 329, It Seems Serious

Translator: Silavin

From the test results, Su Bai knew that the lens needed to be polished a bit thinner for the fox eared girl to see more clearly.

*Zeee*

He polished the lens again, then came before the fox eared girl and repeated the same actions as before.

This time, it was perfect. The lens did not need further polishing, and the fox eared girl’s prescription was basically confirmed.

By Earth standards, her prescription should be about 300 degrees, though Su Bai had no way to really confirm those numbers.

“The testing is done, these will be your glasses from now on.” Su Bai smiled.

When Yu Ying reached out to take the glasses, her delicate hand was trembling, looking very nervous.

Holding the lens in her hand, she asked. “Shaman, I really don’t have anything wrong with me, right? And you won’t make me leave the wooden house, right?”

“Hahaha…” Su Bai really could not help himself with her. He put his hand on her shoulder and firmly assured. “There’s nothing wrong with you, and you’ll continue staying in the wooden house.”

“That’s wonderful!” Yu Ying immediately felt the weight lift from her heart. As long as she was not  sick and would not be forced to leave the wooden house, everything was perfect.

“Oh wait, you might actually have to leave the wooden house.” Su Bai suddenly said with a serious expression.

Yu Ying froze. She had been happily looking at the lens in her hand, but after hearing this, her whole demeanor changed.

She stared at him blankly, asking with a tearful voice. “Shaman, were you lying to me earlier?”

The fox eared girl had known something was wrong with her eyes, which was why she had not wanted to tell anyone, fearing this outcome. She had not expected to be discovered and now had to leave the wooden house.

This was practically a nightmare. Her pink eyes suddenly filled with tears. After all, she had spent so much time in the wooden house and with the Shaman, suddenly being forced to leave was really painful.

Yan Hua immediately stepped forward to comfort her. “It’s alright, everything will be fine.”

“Silly girl. I meant that when the rainy season comes, we’ll be moving to the cement house! Or, do you want to stay in the wooden house that badly?” Su Bai explained.

He had meant to tease the fox eared girl a bit, but had not expected her to suddenly tear up. [Damn. I really shouldn’t have done that…]

Yu Ying’s pink eyes had been misty, and upon hearing this, tears began flowing involuntarily.

Her sad face began to show a smile as she revealed her small teeth and said. “So that’s what the Shaman meant.”

As long as she was not being sent away, as long as she did not have to leave the Shaman, she would be the happiness in the world. It was just that simple to her.

“What else did you think I meant? When I say nothing’s wrong, nothing’s wrong.” Su Bai said gently. [Yeah, tonight, I’m definitely going to add more meat to her portion as compensation for that joke.]

“I’m glad everything’s fine.” Yu Ying took a deep breath and then exhaled.

“Give me the lens, the glasses aren’t completely finished yet.” Su Bai said.

Just holding the lens alone was not enough. They definitely needed frames, otherwise they would not be proper glasses.

“Aren’t they already made?” Yu Ying asked, confused.

“Are you planning to hold the lens in front of your eye with your hand every day from now on?” Su Bai asked in return.

Yu Ying shook her head without hesitation. She did not need to think about it – that would be too inconvenient, not to mention tiring.

“Exactly. So, we still need to do some more work on them.” Su Bai smiled.

“Are we going to make them now?” Yu Ying asked curiously.

Su Bai shook his head and said. “We’ll need Gu Mu’s help for this. I need to go back to the wooden house first.”

“I’ll go with you, Shaman.” Yu Ying immediately followed behind.

Yan Hua and Sha Lan did not know what was happening, but they followed as well.

After returning to the wooden house, Su Bai took out a pencil and Wolf Tail Grass Paper and began drawing.

After all, making frames required skill, and he had never done woodworking before. So, there was no point in wasting time trying to do it himself.

Making frames was not that difficult though. Not if done by a professional. It also would not take long.

Furthermore, in a Primitive Tribe, they need not be particularly delicate or beautiful. They just needed to hold the two lenses.

The pencil moved back and forth across the paper, and in a few minutes, the basic design appeared.

The frames Su Bai drew was not very large – they were of a smaller style that he saw back on Earth, one which would suit a woman better.

He put down his pencil and looked up at the fox eared girl, studying her carefully.

Yu Ying’s face reddened again under his gaze. Looking down, she asked. “Shaman, what is it?”

“Nothing, come here, I need to measure the width.” Su Bai beckoned.

After all, everyone’s head circumference and face shape were different. The frame dimensions needed to be tailored to each person’s head shape. After all, unlike on Earth, the frame was not flexible.

“Width?” Yu Ying asked, confused, but still walked over, standing there looking uncertain.

Su Bai took out a soft measuring tape and measured from one side of the fox eared girl’s head to the other, writing down the measurements on the paper.

He put away the tape measure and nodded with satisfaction, saying. “Alright, let’s give this to Gu Mu and have him make it today.”

Making frames was not difficult, and since it was just one pair, it would be even simpler.

He had drawn all the dimensions, sizes, and style. Since Gu Mu was an experienced carpenter, making such simple frames would be easy.

“Yes,” Yu Ying took the paper and ran off.

Two hours later, a brand new pair of glasses frames was placed before Su Bai. He picked up the frames and examined them thoroughly, saying with satisfaction: “As expected of Gu Mu. He made it without the slightest error. Well done.”

The frames were almost indistinguishable from those on Earth, with the only differences being the materials and level of refinement.

Frames on Earth went through rigorous polishing and colouring, making them look especially nice.

But in this Primitive Era, they could only use wood to make the same shape. Getting it to be that smooth or coloured was not realistic.

Su Bai put the lenses into the frames and handed them over. “Here, try them on and see if they fit.”

Yu Ying was stunned for a moment, then took the frames and put them on her face.

At first she did not know how to wear them. If not for the Shaman’s demonstration, she probably would have been embarrassed for quite a while.

“En, not bad, looks good.” Su Bai nodded with satisfaction.

These glasses he had made himself looked very good on the fox eared girl.
