Searching for cotton is hard work!
Cat Duoduo realized that in modern times, picking cotton is easy with professional equipment, but not now, which naturally leads to low cotton utilization.
Gal actually went to the trouble of finding cotton for himself...
CatDodo sincerely thanked them and even rummaged through its inventory, stuffing the other party with some jerky it had made.
The dried meat smelled delicious, and when Gal ate it, he was reminded of the little things they had done together in another village.
He smiled, his solemn demeanor as the city lord dissipating, revealing a smile familiar to Mao Duoduo, "It's delicious."
"I told you it would be delicious. Don't worry, I'll make you lots more once I'm better." This was a huge favor from Cotton. She was the one who relieved her from the pain of heavy menstrual bleeding!
"Father!" The snake cubs instinctively looked at Snake Rong, wanting to know how to deal with this dangerous fellow. They had a feeling that if he stayed any longer, their mother would be kidnapped by him.
"Good boy~" She Rong simply patted their heads, then sat down next to Mao Duoduo and said naturally, "Sure. You can stay with us all the time."
As he said this, his hand naturally wrapped around Mao Duoduo's waist.
Mao Duoduo's eyes widened in shock.
"Thank you then." Although he said that, Gal didn't hesitate to revert to his original form and use the cute white tiger to warm up the cat.
Cat Duoduo tried many times to tell herself that the other person was an old acquaintance, but she couldn't resist her love for the white tiger and subconsciously wanted to rub it against him...
Damn it, it's white! That's their favorite color!
"Father's pressure has suddenly increased!"
"That wretched serpent has reverted to its original form and is deliberately trying to seduce Mother!"
...
The snake cubs watched anxiously, wishing they could step forward and start the comparison on behalf of the snake demon.
To everyone's surprise, the snake demon didn't react at all. It simply leaned against its side, resting its chin on its hand, and slowly closed its eyes to rest. The snake cubs, seeing this, felt a little aggrieved, but still simply gathered around.
Sure enough, it's so warm and cozy when everyone's together. The cave felt like it had a little sun inside.
Meanwhile, the snow outside continued to fall, growing heavier and heavier, and the chill seeped into one's very bones...
On a day like this, eating your fill and sleeping soundly—that's true bliss.
Here's the important part: after waking up, CatDodo discovered that the SnakeCubs couldn't be woken up.
She yawned and tried to wake them, but then she heard Gal's voice, "Wait, Dodo, they must be hibernating."
"Huh?" CatDodo turned its head and saw that the white tiger, which had been round just now, had slowly turned into its original shape.
It must be said that Gal had been adding firewood from time to time to keep the fire burning brightly. In addition, he was in his original form, which was like a small, scorching sun. When he naturally transformed into human form, his clothes were half open, and sweat was flowing from his chest and abdominal muscles.
The allure and beauty she displayed at that moment were at their peak.
CatDodo quickly turned her gaze away, pretending she hadn't seen it.
Gal yawned, naturally cuddling the cat Dodo, and continued lying on the animal skin bed. Beside him, Serpent Rong was also sleeping, holding several snake cubs; his long hair fell onto the animal skin, making him appear less cold and terrifying than he usually was.
"It's getting colder outside, so the Serpent Rong have inevitably gone into hibernation. Don't worry, I'll protect you from now on."
The man's deep voice made his words sound like a confession.
Cat Duoduo pretended not to understand the underlying meaning, simply thanked the other party, pretended to yawn, closed her eyes, and tried to go to sleep.
It was at this moment that she heard Gal's low laughter.
—Very good, he saw right through my feigned sleep.
Even so, Maoduoduo stubbornly and proudly pretended to be asleep.
In such cold, sleep seems to be the only thing you can rely on.
After CatDodo's breathing became even, Gal hugged her tighter, rested his chin on her head, and looked thoughtfully at Snake Rong beside him.
Did the Serpent Rong have foreseen that hibernation would occur earlier?
That's why he didn't stop me from staying...
It has to be said that, just inside the warm cave, CatDodo had already grasped why the cold winter was so terrible for everyone.
Too cold could multiply the number of deaths and injuries. Too hot and one will fall into a deep sleep, which is just too comfortable.
Even so, she was still very sleepy and had to fall into a sweet sleep.
She was in a daze until her stomach growled, and she barely managed to wake up with the help of the meat broth the other person had cooked.
Waking up on a day like this is quite strenuous. Cat Dodo yawned, "I'm not waking up anymore, I'm going to sleep."
It's so cold that it's making me feel listless.
Cat Dodo was fast asleep. Gal originally wanted to remind the person to eat and drink, but seeing the person's sweet sleeping face, he simply went along with it.
She slept a lot and was awake a little, using the Gal prototype as a source of warmth. By the time she finally came to her senses and overcame the drowsiness brought on by the cold, three or four days had passed.
She yawned, peered through the door, and looked on with a surprised expression. "The snow outside seems to have lessened."
"Would you like to go for a walk?" Gal transformed back into his original form, slowly taking off his upper body clothes, preparing to change into new ones.
Cat Duoduo's face flushed red, and she nodded excitedly, "Of course we have to go out and play!"
Oh dear, she's never played in such heavy snow before. Just looking at it is exciting!
After deciding on their target, CatDodo tried to wake up SnakeRong and the others, but failed. Instead, they decided to take a stroll around the area with Gal.
She put on thick clothes, ready to brave the cold and enjoy herself. But she never realized that the outside world was even colder than she had imagined. The fine, bone-chilling cold was so intense that Mao Duoduo was shivering on the spot, feeling as if her mind was being completely swallowed up.
Damn, it's so cold...
"Then let's hurry back," Gal said, looking worried.
"It's okay. I can still give it a try." Not far from her home, Mao Duoduo tried to make a snowman. Even with her enthusiasm, she still had to admit her lack of strength.
Damn it, what's with all this snow? She can't move it at all...
"Don't worry." Gal said, easily making a big pile of snow and telling CatDodo to make good use of it. A smile bloomed on his face and his eyes were exceptionally bright.
Upon seeing this scene, Gal's gaze froze, a dark light surging within him.
Cat Dodo was completely oblivious, focused on making a snowman! Indeed, not enjoying the snow is a waste of life.
She did indeed make a huge snowman, using firewood and other materials as key decorations, but after finishing and going back to warm herself by the fire, she felt incredibly cold all over, and a wave of exhaustion washed over her...?
