"How dare you bully my baby!"
"I'm really angry, these trash..."
Originally a cat-like beastman with a slender and graceful figure, and inclined towards agility, Dodo's fury now easily infected the group of beastman cubs.
They swallowed hard, instinctively glancing at the lead rhinoceros calf, waiting for an explanation.
To everyone's surprise, the rhinoceros cub is now completely bewildered, thinking to itself that its parents had never mentioned that the snake-woman cub's mother was so powerful.
He subconsciously mimicked the gesture he used to make when commanding his underlings, causing the orc cubs to grit their teeth and instinctively want to continue bullying Snake One and the others.
"don't want!"
CatDodo's eyes turned red, and she grabbed a bamboo stick and started hitting the cubs with all her might.
Her strength was so great that the cubs were caught off guard and sent flying, crying and wiping away their tears as they ran away. Even the rhinoceros cubs were no exception.
It was at this time that Maoduoduo was still not in a good mood and was waiting for a place to vent her anger.
Then, Snake Three's crying voice came, "Mother, Big Brother is not well!"
"What?" Cat Duoduo was alarmed and quickly dropped the bamboo, rushing forward to hug Snake One.
The snake appears to be in the worst situation.
Indeed, after all, he was the strongest among the brothers.
Snake Two and Snake Three were subdued, and the rhinoceros calf and his gang used them to threaten Snake One into obeying. The rhinoceros calf was also rough with his hands, and naturally left wounds on Snake One.
CatDodo felt a pang of heartache seeing this. After checking on SnakeOne, she said, "He's not seriously injured. I'll come check on you all again."
She checked snakes two and three again, and only after confirming that there were no problems did she breathe a sigh of relief. She then gritted her teeth, carried one on her back and held two in her arms, and headed straight home.
Snake One and Snake Two fell into a coma, while Snake Three was crying.
His inability to take human form was both an advantage and a disadvantage. In this situation, despite being relatively lightly injured, it seemed that he was putting most of his energy into crying.
He continued to cling to the cat, and as the cat sat at the door, quickly grinding herbs, tears kept welling up in his eyes.
"Mother, will my brothers be in trouble? Am I too useless? I was the first one captured and used to threaten them."
The little snake felt terribly guilty.
CatDodo gently patted the other's head, carefully placed the herbs in the bamboo tube, and got up to apply the medicine to Snake One and Snake Two.
While applying the medicine, she said, "Silly boy, you're just a child, it's normal that you can't beat him."
Snake Three said uneasily, "If those guys come again, won't we be bullied again?"
"They dare!" At this, Mao Duoduo's anger flared up, causing him to apply more force to the snake while applying the medicine, making the snake cry out in pain.
"Oh, it's all Mommy's fault. It doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't hurt anymore." Cat Duoduo carefully rubbed the sore spot on Snake One, which quickly relieved the pain in the unconscious Snake One, and this time the dream became sweet.
Snake Three stared at the scene without moving, his eyes welling up with tears. This was his mother.
During the subsequent application of the medicine, Maoduoduo became even gentler, trying not to wake up Snake One and Snake Two.
After completing the final step, she took the bamboo tube outside and gave it a quick rinse. It was at this moment that Snake Three came over, tears streaming down his face, "Mother, I want to become stronger, I want to beat those bad guys who bully my brother."
CatDodo paused, thinking, "My dear, don't cry." Given SnakeThree's tendency to cry, CatDodo was quite skeptical about how he had become so strong later on.
Even so, she sighed deeply, "Alright, Mother will try her best to help you."
It's just teaching a few orc cubs a lesson. She can't do it herself, but that doesn't mean she can't teach her own cubs to fight back!
"Okay, Mommy is the best, kiss Mommy!" Snake Three was so excited that he jumped around on the spot, which resulted in his body unexpectedly getting rolled up. Cat Duoduo had to suppress his laughter and carefully untangle him.
"I've told you so many times, you need to be careful. If your body gets tangled up again, I won't be able to separate it for you."
"Waaah, Mommy, I really didn't mean to."
"Stop talking so much. Don't expect me to give you the food I prepared ahead of time!"
"Mother, can love suddenly disappear? Don't you love Snake Three anymore?"
"...You little brat!"
The soft, rustling sounds came through the crack in the door, which wasn't quite closed yet.
Snake One and Snake Two were still dazed when they got up. They noticed the herbal ointment rubbed on their bodies, remembered what they had seen before they lost consciousness, and their hearts tightened. They quickly tried to leave.
The result was the same: they saw Cat Duoduo and Snake San interacting through the crack in the door.
The cat, Duoduo, is cooking something in a bamboo tube, and it looks very careful.
Snake Three seemed to want to try it ahead of time multiple times, but was refused by Cat Duo Duo, so it started to launch all sorts of pretentious verbal attacks.
Of course, Snake One and Snake Two are unaware that their little brother has progressed to this level; they simply find the other party's effusive affection disgusting.
but--
"Is she really going to be a good mother?" Snake Two murmured.
Even though he was distracted, his voice was still very soft, and only Snake One could hear it.
"Hmm." Snake's attention was now focused on Cat Duoduo.
Even though the snake caused trouble three times, the cat never resorted to violence, nor did it show the slightest displeasure.
It seems he can trust cats a little more in the future...
"Hey, all done, Snake Three, wake up your brothers."
Okay.
Snake Three happily hummed the rhyme that Cat Duo Duo had casually taught him while cooking.
Of course, compared to the gentle and ethereal quality of the songs sung by Maoduoduo, Snake Three's singing was so off-key that it was almost like Siberia, leaving people speechless yet somehow still finding it cute.
"Big brother and second brother, get up, or you'll get a spanking..." Snake Three's words were abruptly cut short.
It was just that Snake One and Snake Two sat with their arms crossed, seemingly lost in thought.
"They're here."
Soon, both snakes got up and walked over.
Mao Duoduo didn't notice the change in the brothers. Mainly, she wanted to appease the little ones this time, so she decided to make something delicious to cheer them up.
At home, we use stone pots, both thin and thick. The thin ones are the kind used in later times for grilling meat. The thick ones are for stewing and simmering.
The problem is that neither of these are the tools Gu You needs to make the steamed egg custard.
Even so, she did not give up. She simply chose bamboo tubes, boiled the bamboo in a thick stone pot with water, and the steamed egg custard inside the bamboo tube could also achieve a heating effect through the heat.
