Si Yan walked into the hedge.
Wood-based Ability.
Brimming with vitality!
She pressed her hands against the ground and saw the tomato vines, waterlon vines, and strawberry seedlings visibly invigorated before her eyes.
They flourished, their branches vibrant and flowers blooming.
Then, on their branches, one fruit after another queued up to erge.
The waterlons and tomatoes grew more slowly, while the strawberries raced to pop out, one after another, sparkling as they appeared.
Dongchi and Nan Mo hastily picked strawberries in the field, setting them aside.
No sooner had they been picked than new ones grew, and the cycle of picking continued.
Crop after crop.
Nan Mo shouted excitedly, "Mother, that’s enough, that’s enough! We can’t eat them all!"
Labor brings joy.
Si Yan said, "Didn’t Hu Hui say there are many snake Beastn in the Delusional Domain?"
She added cheerily, "Let’s pick so more and use them to win so hearts first."
Upon hearing this, Dongchi and Nan Mo quickly continued picking strawberries.
The four or five beastskin skirts laid out nearby were filled to the brim, pile after pile.
The work ended. The abundant Wood-based Ability within her was completely depleted.
Si Yan stretched her arms and legs.
After using up her Special Ability, she felt incredibly comfortable. It was as if she had broken through a certain threshold.
Her Wood-based Ability feels a bit starved for action, she thought.
Si Yan walked over to a pile of strawberries. "We’ll keep these for ourselves to eat," she said. "Dongchi, Nan Mo, this portion is for you. These are for She Wang, and this portion is for She Ying."
Then, pointing to the other strawberries, she said, "Hu Hui, please help distribute the rest of the Snake Fruit to the snake Beastn in the Delusional Domain. Just tell them they’re from the Lady of the Lord."
Hu Hui was enthralled by Si Yan’s powerful Wood-based Ability. When he heard the command, he stood stunned for a good while before finally managing to close his agape mouth. He said excitedly, "Yes, Lady of the Lord! They will surely be delighted."
Hu Hui summoned a few snake Beastn to help carry the Snake Fruit.
"Be careful," Hu Hui instructed them. "These are fruits specially picked by the Lady of the Lord."
"Yes, yes, Lord Hu Hui."
Snake Beastn held a low status in the Beast World.
These Green Crystal snake Beastn didn’t dare to lift their heads in Si Yan’s presence.
As they carried the Snake Fruit, they felt as if they had been respected by the Lady of the Lord.
The sensation was quite novel to them.
As these Green Crystal snake Beastn left, they bowed to Si Yan.
"Thank you, Lady of the Lord."
Si Yan responded with a smile, "You’re welco."
The snake Beastn cautiously took the strawberries and left.
Si Yan returned to the planting area, her excitent still not having faded.
"Hu Hui, could you help till the soil over there? I have more things I want to plant," she said.
Hu Hui, too, had found pleasure in the planting process, so he hurried off to do whatever Si Yan asked of him.
There were pumpkin seeds and Paralysis Fruit seeds too.
There were also seeds for chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns.
Si Yan planted all these stored seeds.
The nearby soil, enriched by her Wood-based Ability, was teeming with life.
Shortly after the seeds were sown, one sparkling little sprout after another erged.
They were especially cute.
After a day of hard work, Si Yan felt sweaty all over, yet she still felt extrely joyful.
"Let’s draw so water," Si Yan chuckled. "Dongchi, Nanmo, how about Mom gives you a bath?"
Nan Mo’s face turned beet red, and he nodded shyly with his head lowered.
Dongchi turned his head away. "Who needs your help? I’m not a little kid anymore."
Si Yan couldn’t help but laugh. Her hands were too dirty to touch the two cubs’ heads.
She quickly prepared a large wooden tub. After Hu Hui brought over several bucketfuls of water, Si Yan asked him to leave.
She found an animal skin and hung it at the entrance of the cave so that people outside couldn’t see inside.
Then, she hung another animal skin in a corner of the cave. This was to create a screen for when she bathed later.
Si Yan bathed the two cubs.
She helped little Dongchi wash first. He leaned over the edge of the wooden tub, watching her. Though the Dongchi cub was awkward, thrashing about and trying to swim away at first, his eyes still brimd with happiness.
Nan Mo sorsaulted in the tub. Wet all over, he said to Si Yan, "Mommy, hug !"
Si Yan, also drenched, had no intention of doing so.
So, the two cubs proceeded to splash water, drenching her completely.
Wang opened his eyes and looked toward the animal skin curtain. Then he closed his eyes again and continued to sleep.
After the two cubs were bathed and had changed into fresh clothes, curtains were drawn in the cave. Surrounded by their own family and with the hot weather, they simply went without wearing their animal skin skirts.
They slipped and slid about in the cave.
Si Yan poured water for herself. After a quick rinse, she took off her animal skin skirt and stepped into the tub to bathe.
The gentle splashing of water was particularly clear in the night. The cold-blooded snake Beastman opened his eyes slightly and glanced in her direction.
Si Yan ca out dressed in clean clothes.
He had shed a lot of snakeskin back then, enough to make more than one set of clothes.
When Si Yan ca out, she was wearing a purple snakeskin outfit, entirely made by She Wang.
Her small face was clean, and glistening water droplets rolled down her body.
She Wang looked up and saw this radiant Si Yan.
The eyes of the cold-blooded snake Beastman ward slightly.
Si Yan bent down to pick up the dirty clothes she had just changed out of from the ground.
Wang asked in a low voice, "Female, what are you going to do?"
Si Yan replied, "I’m going to take them outside to wash."
The male looked at her breathtakingly beautiful face, then stepped forward and took all the dirty clothes from her hands.
In the Beast World, females are only responsible for looking after the cubs. What’s wrong with this female? Doesn’t she have the slightest awareness that she should let do the work?
"I’ll go wash them. You stay in the cave with the little cubs."
Her discarded clothes included so undergarnts.
The male then took all the clothes directly from her hands and strode out of the cave.
Watching Wang’s retreating back, Si Yan thought, In my original world, even with washing machines, it was mostly won who did the laundry. n willing to wash all of a woman’s clothes were truly rare. But in this world, there are no washing machines. Washing clothes is a huge chore, yet this male before has taken it all upon himself without a second thought. He might be a villainous Great Demon King, but... he’s actually really good to .
"Mommy!" Dongchi and Nan Mo ran over.
Si Yan looked at the animal skin skirts the little cubs had changed into.
Are they growing too fast? Their animal skin skirts already seem too small, she mused.
In a corner of the cave lay a large pile of big animal skins left by Wang.
Si Yan said warmly with a smile, "Dongchi, Nanmo, let make you so more animal skin skirts. I’ll make several, so we can keep so for Xi Qing and Bei Ji too. Co and help Mommy!"
"Okay!" the cubs quickly ran over.
Si Yan looked at the large animal skins.
Considering he washed my clothes for , I should make a set for Wang too. With my modern aesthetic and so much leather, I can definitely make him sothing exceptionally handso. It doesn’t need to be too thick or complicated for Fla Day, but he can wear it when the weather cools down.
