"Your bowls are for eating, not for washing clothes or anything. They're too dirty."
Bai Xizhu continued to persuade her.
Visibly, these three large, dark iron pots were covered in today's dinner, and despite changing the water several times, they were still glistening with oil...
I could faintly smell the aroma of chicken stew with mushrooms.
And there was the greasy braised pork from yesterday.
"It's alright! Master, I don't mind you!" Taotie said with a righteous expression.
It's willing to offer its own food bowl to its owner for washing clothes!
Bai Xizhu: ...
"Master, aren't you happy that we're washing your clothes?"
Shuihui glanced at Bai Xizhu's downturned lips, feeling slightly disappointed.
"I'm happy, very happy." Bai Xizhu's lips twitched, and a fairly warm smile appeared on her face. "It's just that washing clothes is too troublesome. Can I find you some new chores?"
If Taotie keeps washing clothes like this, no matter how many clothes you hoard, it won't be enough.
"It's good that Master isn't unhappy. I thought Master thought we didn't wash well!"
The water snake breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Bai Xizhu's lips twitched, but she didn't say anything.
We shouldn't attack them, but rather try to influence them with love.
"Alright! Master, find us some other work!"
Taotie's eyes lit up, and it blinked repeatedly.
The Taotie has a strange human face and a body like a tiger.
When they try to be cute, they're kind of adorably ugly.
“Ahem, look, this is all open space. I’ll give you some seeds in a bit, and you can learn to farm, how about that?” Bai Xizhu said.
"Farming? I don't know how!" Taotie was slightly disappointed.
Can't help its owner anymore?
Will it no longer become the owner's most favored child?
"It's very simple. Dig a hole, throw the seed in, then cover it with soil and water it," Bai Xizhu explained patiently.
There are many seeds in the space. Every time a batch of vegetables and fruits matures, the Bai family will save the seeds according to the methods in the book.
The warehouse was filled with vegetable seeds alone.
Since the space will keep the food fresh and in good condition, there's no need to worry about it spoiling no matter how much you hoard.
The Bai family made good use of the land in the space, and rationally developed orchards, vegetable fields, breeding farms, wheat fields, rice fields, and so on.
"Alright, then we'll help our master farm!"
Taotie looked very confident.
It digs holes incredibly fast; it's sure to become the coolest kid around!
Shuihui and Qinyuan both agreed.
They do whatever their owner tells them to do!
Strive to become the most favored child!
Seeing that they all agreed, Bai Xizhu turned and headed towards the warehouse to quickly find seeds for them.
No matter what kind of seed it is, as long as it is planted in the soil of the space, it will grow strong and healthy, so Bai Xizhu is not afraid of wasting it.
"Where should I dry these clothes?"
The water snake looked at the still-dripping scarf with some worry.
"Of course it's hanging on the clothesline!"
Taotie rolled its eyes, picked up the clothes, and went to find the clothesline.
At the clothesline.
The clothesline was already fully loaded.
It's all thanks to Bai Anhai.
"It's fully booked."
Qin Yuan secretly glanced at Bai Yifan's clothes, thinking to himself, "If I throw his clothes down, I probably won't get beaten up!"
Among the Bai family members, the one you can most easily offend is Bai Yifan.
No one else dared to offend them.
Bai Yifan is the easiest to bully.
She has a good temper (it's unavoidable).
"Guards, tie me to a tree and use me as a clothesline!"
The water snake climbed up the tree with a proud look on its face, stretching its tail as far as possible toward another tree.
Qin Yuan glanced at Bai Yifan's clothes, then at the water snake, and decisively pulled off Bai Yifan's clothes and threw them on the ground.
It dislikes water snakes; it can't let its owner's clothes smell like water snakes!
That won't do; I can't let the serpent be the most favored child!
The cunning Taotie stepped on Bai Yifan's clothes and hung up his freshly washed white ramie clothes.
Qin Yuan glanced at Taotie and snorted coldly.
The Taotie is definitely going to get beaten to death!
It's true that Bai Yifan has the lowest status, but his clothes are washed by his father.
If you get his washed clothes dirty, you'll get beaten up!
Qin Yuan is so clever!
It won't get your clothes dirty!
Qin Yuan decisively grabbed the socks and draped them over Leng Yebai's clothes.
The wet socks soaked through Leng Yebai's quick-drying clothes, and also left a greasy smell.
Perfect!
Leng Yebai didn't dare to hit it because its master's socks were on his clothes!
The snake couldn't hold on for even a minute and decisively climbed down from the tree.
Forget it, clothesline work isn't easy.
So, following Qin Yuan's example, the water snake decisively draped the scarf over Leng Yebai's clothes.
Perfect!
――――
Early morning, another new day begins.
Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai didn't accept the mission; instead, they planned to wander around the safe base.
Bai Xizhu was a little curious about the cameras in the waiting room of the mission hall.
There are people from that research institute in the Fire Phoenix Security Base, such as Zhao Mi'er.
There must be others.
The people in the waiting room must all be subject to review by their superiors, which means that the cameras are filming people with powerful superpowers.
This made Bai Xizhu slightly uneasy.
The apocalypse had barely begun when the research institute had already infiltrated the safe base?
Leng Yebai noticed Bai Xizhu's unease and gently reached out his finger to hook Bai Xizhu's finger.
The broad, kind hand gave Bai Xizhu confidence. This life was different from before. With her family by her side, that research institute would be destroyed sooner or later!
