Not long after, Si Yan felt a stomachache. Not only her, but Xi Qing and Bei Ji also felt a stomachache. They squatted in the bushes together and had a lot of diarrhea.

Bei Ji pulled the most; he was a little weak, but his eyes were bright.

Mother's medicine seems to be working!

Does that mean he won't die?!

Even Xi Qing found it unbelievable. This wicked female… was actually a hidden witch doctor?!

Si Yan brought water and washed the babies' bottoms in the cave. This time, even Xi Qing wasn't as resistant to her.

After washing it clean, Si Yan said, "It seems this stuff really works!"

Not only are pumpkin seeds effective at repelling parasites, but pumpkins themselves are also quite delicious. It really is a treasure trove of benefits!

Si Yan said happily, "I plan to transplant the pumpkins into the yard. If possible, I would like to cultivate some land nearby to grow pumpkins."

Xi Qing and Bei Ji looked at her in confusion: "What is transplantation? What is seed?"

Si Yan smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll find out soon enough."

Si Yan originally wanted Bei Ji to rest at home, but Bei Ji insisted on watching Si Yan transplant pumpkins. Si Yan had no choice but to bring both children along.

She carefully dug up the pumpkin roots along with the soil, then carried the large pumpkin vine and the pumpkins that had already borne fruit towards the cave.

They encountered several male orcs along the way, and many of them jokingly teased them.

But neither Xi Qing nor Bei Ji smiled; what they were holding were priceless treasures.

This stuff can repel insects; it's a rare and precious witchcraft remedy that these foolish males don't even know!

After bringing it back, Si Yan found a fertile piece of land near the cave, dug a hole, and planted the pumpkin.

Xi Qing squatted down near the pumpkin, watching it: "Can it really survive? Can it really survive like this?"

"Others may not be able to grow it, but I definitely can!" Si Yan said confidently. She removed the weeds next to the pumpkin and then placed her hands on the ground next to the pumpkin.

Xi Qing and Bei Ji's eyes widened. They saw a tiny green light in the female's hand.

Then, this pumpkin plant seemed to become visibly more vibrant! The green pumpkins were also growing rapidly, and some of the larger pumpkins had even begun to turn red.

Si Yan looked at the largest pumpkin and smiled, "This pumpkin, maybe we can eat it tomorrow."

Bei Ji stared at Si Yan in astonishment, mouth agape: "Mother...you..."

My mother's power is so great, she can even control plants, is she a priestess?

"Shh," Si Yan said, "This is Mother's secret. Mother is only telling you. You must keep it a secret for Mother."

Xi Qing and Bei Ji felt this was of utmost importance and nodded solemnly.

She patted the children: "Come on, let's go home. I'll cook you something delicious tonight."

With plenty of ingredients, Si Yan made stir-fried pumpkin with sliced ​​pork and stir-fried wild game liver. Both dishes were truly delicious. Xi Qing and Bei Ji were completely won over by the flavors and couldn't stop eating.

After finishing the meal, Si Yan washed the pots and pans, and Xi Qing said with some worry, "What if someone digs up the pumpkins? I need to go and guard them."

That's a precious elixir. Is it really safe to leave it outside?

Si Yan smiled and stopped her, saying, "It's alright, no one will dig it up. Even if they do, it doesn't matter, I've already processed a lot of seeds, we can plant more."

As she spoke, she noticed the potatoes and sweet potatoes that had sprouted but hadn't been finished.

These can also be planted.

She cut the sprouted parts of the potatoes and sweet potatoes into pieces, set them aside to dry, and planned to plant them nearby the next morning.
