My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 200 - 69 Bamboo Shoot Feast (Part 1)2

The cubs are sturdy, usually under the "care" of the Iron-eating Beast, they’ve already developed thick skins from all the falls. But Du Xixi is quite delicate now, whether it’s the big one or the two little ones yet to be born, they can’t afford to fall.

But now that Du Xixi is seated steadily, the Iron-eating Beast handed her the well-behaved one, thinking it probably wouldn’t cause trouble for Du Xixi.

As soon as Du Xixi took hold of the warm little Iron-eating Beast, she visibly stiffened and sat there motionless. It wasn’t until the little Iron-eating Beast in her hands squeaked twice that she ca to and carefully cradled it in her arms.

The Iron-eating Beast imdiately grinned, and the laughter, neither too big nor too small, made Du Xixi’s face turn bright red. Even Miao Miao, who had put down her book and was quietly watching the interaction between Du Xixi and the little Iron-eating Beast, found it amusing.

Hearing Miao Miao’s gentle chuckle, the seemingly honest Iron-eating Beast glanced at her suddenly, then withdrew his gaze when neither Miao Miao nor Du Xixi noticed.

Although the Iron-eating Beast kept a grin on his face, bouncing his arm up and down to match the fidgeting cub in his arms, he already harbored so suspicions about Miao Miao’s identity.

Even though Miao Miao wore a hooded dress, exposing only her pair of white hands holding the book, as a mber of the Beast Clan, the Iron-eating Beast managed to sniff out the unusual scent on her that set her apart from regular humans.

She seed a bit like a human, but also a bit like the Beast Clan. The Iron-eating Beast felt that this humanoid being with a hidden face might be a descendant of an altered beast clan mber and a human.

However, seeing Miao Miao so at ease in the Ke Family, as if she had been living there permanently, the Iron-eating Beast didn’t say anything else to Du Xixi and rely laughed, "Speaking of which, the reason I’ve co to see you today is because of a piece of exceedingly good news!"

——"Such great joy! I’ve co to you today bearing fabulous news!"

The words of the Iron-eating Beast suddenly reminded Du Xixi of those classic lines from matchmakers in the TV shows she used to watch on Blue Star, strikingly similar to what the Iron-eating Beast just said, so much so that she couldn’t help but get goosebumps on her arm.

Iron-eating Beast as a matchmaker? Du Xixi glanced at the Iron-eating Beast but failed to spot any conspicuous mole above his mouth like a typical matchmaker.

Although Du Xixi’s thoughts had taken an outrageous turn, fortunately, the Iron-eating Beast himself was normal. He indeed ca to find Du Xixi because of a significant piece of good news, which also happened to have so relation to her, so he brought his two cubs along.

"A few months ago, Lord Rob, on the orders of His Majesty Chen Yin, ca to deliver an alliance agreent, hoping our two empires could cooperate and form friendly ties. But I refused," said the Iron-eating Beast, feeling sowhat downcast.

Back then, the Iron-eating Beast Empire was an isolated entity in the All-Star domain, and only the Blue Star Empire extended a friendly hand to them, yet the Iron-eating Beast still declined.

Such a great empire, the Iron-eating Beast didn’t want it to beco a target throughout the All-Star domain because of them.

But when the Iron-eating Beast thought there was no more hope after Blue Star Empire, Du Xixi, the Marshal’s Wife of the Blue Star Empire, brought him hope.

She sent gifts and asked Rob to help transplant food, even brought to the live broadcast the furry balls that Lord Rob had once brought back for her, displaying her great fondness for them.

Iron-eating Beasts aren’t particularly bothered about their fur, and during the shedding season, an adult Iron-eating Beast can lose enough fur to make hundreds of large fur balls, so the Iron-eating Beast didn’t attribute any special aning to the furballs he gave away.

However, seeing Du Xixi so fond of them, often handling them and even placing them by her bedside to squeeze before sleep, the Iron-eating Beasts, who already liked Du Xixi, grew even more fond of her.

Is there any Iron-eating Beast that wouldn’t like soone as pretty and kind-hearted as Du Xixi?

Thanks to Du Xixi’s assistance, the Iron-eating Beast Empire’s demand for consuming tal has dramatically decreased. Crisp bamboo and fresh bamboo shoots have clearly beco their favorites for now.

Due to the advanced technology of the Star Era, cultivating bamboo at various maturity levels is unbelievably simple. Thus, the bamboo on the Iron-eating Beast Empire matures at different tis, with one patch ready today and another tomorrow, allowing Iron-eating Beasts to eat freely every day without repeating!
