"They don't call it the Cub Cave anymore, do they?"

Orphaned cubs are cared for by the tribe; their food is basic, but they won't starve.

Previously, there was a huge cave in Yafatu; here it must be a large house, right?

"It's also called the Cub Cave, located in a courtyard of over 500 square meters on the east side of the square."

Yang Yun's peach blossom eyes slightly squinted as she chuckled, thinking of the two little brats who said they would be Xiaxia's partners when they grew up.

A partner who isn't good-looking won't do for Xiaxia...

Upon hearing this, Shengxia smiled and said, "Yes, I know~" Everything is moving in a positive direction.

Yang Yun gazed longingly at Sheng Xia's delicate and lively face, the deep affection in her peach blossom eyes seeming to condense into water.

Thinking of something, Sheng Xia's eyes lit up, and she turned to look at Tie Bai: "Where are A Qing and the others?"

"I went to the back mountain with the harvesting team to collect potatoes," Tie Baifen said slowly, her pink eyes slightly curved.

After speaking, he reached out and ruffled Shengxia's hair, casually picked up a piece of food, and silently tested it for poison.

After a while, once he was sure everything was alright, he placed the food in front of Shengxia, a smile playing on his lips.

Shengxia's almond-shaped eyes darted around playfully. She gently pulled Tie Bai's hand, met his beautiful pink eyes, and tiptoed to kiss the corner of his eye.

"Ah Bai, you guys don't need to try it anymore. I've checked, everything's fine. It'll get cold soon anyway, so eat it quickly."

She wouldn't dare send it to the cub cave if there was a problem...

Back home, Shengxia had a wonderful night's sleep.

After getting up, she stretched and walked into the living room. Qingmu was knitting a sweater, while Hu Xue and Jiao Su were tanning animal hides at the door.

When they noticed Shengxia coming out, they both looked up at the same time, their expressions softening as they looked at her with affection.

Jiao Su curled her lips into a smile, and her noble and elegant face instantly became lively, showing a touch of warmth.

"Awake? Are you hungry?" Tie Bai's pink eyes curved slightly.

Shengxia chuckled and shook her head: "I'm not hungry." She sat down next to Qingmu naturally, watching his fingers fly as he knitted a sweater.

Aoki turned the skewer around.

"Xiaxia! The dress will be ready soon!" Aoki smiled brightly and knitted the sweater even faster.

"Amazing!" Sheng Xia praised him sincerely as she watched his hands weave afterimages.

In less than a day, a dress was almost finished; even a machine can't be that fast.

After watching for a while, she turned her head and looked out the window. Tie Bai and Lang Jun were smoking meat in the yard.

I didn't see Yang Yun, she must be cooking.

Thinking of this, Sheng Xia's eyes sparkled. She stood up and ran lightly to the kitchen, where Yang Yun's stunningly beautiful face came into view.

He saw Sheng Xia, was surprised for a moment, then his peach blossom eyes slightly raised and shone with excitement: "Xia, are you hungry?"

As he spoke, he added a piece of freshly cooked sweet and sour pork, cooled it down with his supernatural ability, and then brought it to Shengxia's lips.

The sweet and sour flavor melts in your mouth, the meat is very tender and smooth, and the sweet and sour sauce is just the right amount of sweet. In the middle of summer, your eyes sparkle.

"tasty!"

A gentle breeze blows, and Yang Yun's heart is softer than the wind.

———

next day

"Witch Doctor Xia, the chieftain requests your presence," a golden eagle orc called out from the doorway with a booming voice.

Shengxia responded and was about to go out when she bumped into Wolf King as he entered.

Wolf King smiled slightly, raised his hand to brush away the stray hairs from the corner of her eye, and said in a gentle and pleasant voice.

"The Tiger Tribe's shaman and chief have arrived with several warriors. Let's go to the meeting hall together."

Tribal affairs were outside Shengxia's knowledge, but now that she was a witch doctor, she should go through the motions.

Shengxia smiled and affectionately took Wolf King's strong arm, tilting her head playfully.

"Let's go, Brother Wolf King~"

As Wolf King entered the meeting hall, Chief Lion Mountain and Witch Doctor Snake were already there. Opposite them were several unfamiliar males, who must be the beasts of the Fierce Tiger Tribe.

Shengxia watched with curiosity as Maoning methodically arranged for the shaman and others from the Fierce Tiger Tribe to sit down.

Upon seeing Shengxia and Wolf King enter, Lion Mountain quickly stood up and warmly pulled out the chair next to him for Shengxia to sit on.

Seeing this, the White-Eyebrowed Witch Doctor of the Fierce Tiger Tribe looked at Sheng Xia with a smile and a kind expression: "This must be Witch Doctor Xia, right? I've often heard Tiger Girl mention you."

Lipsticks and crocodile skin bags, that sounds really amazing...

Sheng Xia smiled politely, a generous smile playing on her lips: "Hello,"

"The sandstorm just passed, and half of our tribe was buried by sand and is uninhabitable. We came here to discuss with you whether we can deal with it together..."

“Our two tribes are separated by a vast desert…”

The shaman spoke clearly and logically, with a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant. He even came up with the idea of ​​planting trees together to stop the sandstorm from spreading further, which made Sheng Xia look at him with new respect.

After speaking for a while, Tiger Leap, the chief of the Fierce Tiger Tribe, carefully took out a bunch of plants from his pocket and said in a solemn tone.

"This is a type of grass we discovered that can be used to weave clothes. We'd like to trade it with you for some insect repellent."

The sandstorm brought many poisonous insects, and the females in the tribe were so frightened that they all slept in the trees. Treehouses were easy to build, but the snow season was fast approaching...

Sheng Xia's eyes lit up, and she couldn't take her eyes off that thing—it was numbness!

She searched for a long time but couldn't find any hemp!

Summer didn't rush to speak, but Wolf King noticed first that she was very interested in the brown, thread-like strips.

He placed his large hand on the back of her hand, patted it reassuringly, and whispered something in her ear.

"Do you want it?"

The hot, moist breath tickled her ears. Shengxia looked at Wolf King with her bright eyes and nodded gently.

Next comes the negotiation period.

It was the first time in the summer that I witnessed negotiations between two tribes. I sat up straight and curiously observed the leaders of both sides.

After asking for his opinion, Shishan carefully touched the hemp thread and said with some disdain, "We have better options for weaving clothes, look at what I'm wearing."

Lion Mountain proudly puffed out his chest, showing off his sweater, which he had specially put on after hearing that the chief of the Fierce Tiger Tribe had arrived.

It's so hot it's killing me!

Bai Mei's eyes lit up, and he asked in a gentle tone.

"What is this made of? It looks very soft. Can I trade it for hemp?"

Lion Mountain shook his head with a faint smile: "This is very precious to us. Beasts won't freeze to death wearing it during the snow season. It's not something you can just replace with anything."

Upon hearing that the snow season wouldn't freeze the beasts to death, Hu Yue's breath hitched. He sat up straight, pursed his lips, and spoke seriously.

"Chief Lion, you can't just say things like that. I'll take it seriously."

The tribe lives near a river, and it's common for animals to freeze to death during the snowy season. Yet, the shaman Yafatu claims that their clothes will prevent animals from freezing to death.

He's spouting nonsense right off the bat...

After Hu Yue finished speaking, Bai Mei smiled and stopped him, turning to explain to Shi Shan.

"He was just too anxious. We've never heard of someone not freezing to death just by wearing clothes."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Xia's eyes lit up. She Han noticed her reaction and looked at Sheng Xia with loving eyes.

"What does Doctor Xia think? These are all things Doctor Xia taught us, so let's listen to her."
