Cat Duoduo got an idea, picked up the basket, and filled it with some more things.
Before leaving the house, Maoduoduo reminded the kittens to dig up bamboo shoots or similar items nearby to prepare a food reserve. Bamboo, once the mud is removed and it's kept dry, can be stored for a long time and also provides vitamins.
The kittens were obedient and didn't want to see Mao Duoduo leave.
As for CatDodo, he chose to go and bother Valina.
Upon arriving at Valina's house, Dodo saw that Valina's family was preparing their hunting food, which was mostly meat.
It's clear that after CatDodo told Valina that she could choose to preserve food with salt, Valina's family actively preserved food to extend its shelf life.
Food is now drying everywhere, which looks quite spectacular.
As soon as Maoduo appeared, Valina quickly noticed her and greeted her with a smile: "What brings you here? Come over and try some of the dried fruit I just made."
This still excited Valina quite a bit; the sweet dried fruit could last her a long time.
The cat ate a piece, but was too embarrassed to say what it was about.
Valina was taken aback at first, but quickly smiled and said, "It's such a small thing, you just say the word and I can deliver it to you. By the way, how many do you need? You can choose now, and I'll deliver it to you later."
"No need, I actually only want two pieces, I'll trade with you."
Cat Duoduo proactively took out the beef she had just taken from her spatial storage from her basket; it was still quite fresh. Next to it were bamboo shoots wrapped in leaves.
Valina was about to refuse when she saw it, saying, "You've already helped me so much, I can't take your things." In other people's homes, who would be so selfless as to share so many of her great food-making methods?
It's fair to say that with the advice from Maoduoduo, Valina had a pretty good time during this rainy season.
"No, I have to give you something in return. Otherwise, how can we continue playing together?" Mao Duoduo said sincerely.
When Valina met CatDodo's gaze, she could tell that he was being sincere. Considering CatDodo's personality, she had no choice but to agree.
Immediately, CatDodo traded for two animal hides.
Before leaving, Valina reminded Maoduoduo, "Make sure to keep the drainage in place. Dig a ditch near your house so that all the water flows in and doesn't get into your house."
"Okay, I'll remember."
When Maoduo returned, she saw that the kittens were all dirty and diligently digging for bamboo shoots.
She was both amused and exasperated, and quickly interrupted, looking at the bamboo shoots that had already piled up into a small mountain, she was on the verge of tears, "You've prepared so much, we can't possibly eat it all."
"Oh no, what should we do?" The snake cubs stood there, completely at a loss.
Mao Duoduo smiled and shook her head. "Alright, you guys go back and take a shower first. I'll take care of it."
Snake and the others checked again, then blushed and hurried off to take a bath. Hot water was already prepared on the stove and ready to use at any time.
As for Maoduoduo, she was quick and efficient. She simply rinsed the bamboo shoots, removed the outer layer of mud, and then used a flat drying rack woven on the spot to air-dry them.
I'm going to rest now. After a whole day of work, I feel like my body is completely out of control.
As a result, when she turned around, she caught a glimpse of some adobe bricks stored not far from the house.
It was this one fish that slipped through the net that, by all accounts, was enough for her to make something with the remaining clay.
We did it right away.
Cat Duoduo got up and went back to her new home for a walk, but didn't seem to need anything.
No, it is necessary!
She paused, then quickly ran back, looked at the bamboo bed, checked it again, and finally turned around to start working.
If comfort is the goal, a solid clay bed would be best; it wouldn't wobble, and it would be comfortable to lie against animal hide. She decided to do just that.
Finally, I lay down on the clay bed and was quite satisfied. I closed my eyes and rested, feeling comfortable.
Almost as soon as she closed her eyes, the children shouted in unison, "Ready!"
"Wait—" A bad feeling came over him. Before CatDodo's words could even elicit a reaction from the little devils, they all jumped onto the bed in unison, giving CatDodo a headache.
CatDodo: "..." One day, she'll make these brats pay the price. It hurts so much!
Even so, it cannot be denied that the group's lives have visibly improved, becoming increasingly happy and fulfilling.
It was at this time that Maoduo led a few kittens into the forest and patiently caught a few chirping chickens. This time, his goal was to train the chirping chickens and successfully raise them to eat eggs.
The family of three had decided on their target this time. After investigating the area to ensure there were no large orcs nearby, they launched a joint attack, hoping to capture as many Chichi Chickens as possible so they could eat and drink comfortably without having to go out during the rainy season.
CatDodo has already decided to build a shed later, so it won't get wet in the rain...
This time, the family of three worked together and even took advantage of the terrain to dig a pit, ready to make the dangerous guy pay the price for underestimating them.
result--
"Mother, come here! I... I caught the Bouncy Beast!" the snake shouted excitedly.
"Bouncing Beast, huh? Very good..." CatDodo thought it was just a small prey, but when it went closer to take a look, it was almost dumbfounded.
This is basically a rabbit! The bouncy beast has plenty of meat, and its fur can be processed and used – quite a bargain! But it's not quite a bargain at all; the snake is already able to help so quickly.
Snake Two and Snake Three were unwilling to give up, so they searched everywhere for places to dig holes, also wanting to help.
"Alright, you guys are pretty amazing too. No need to rush, I believe you can all do it. However, this time our goal is to carefully bring these back."
Snake Two and Snake Three: "Yes!"
In the following days, they also spent a lot of time storing supplies, hunting food, and preparing firewood.
The closer it got to the rainy season that Valina and the others had mentioned, the more regretful Maoduo became. It was too late. She should have built a basement or something; it would have been more convenient then.
Thanks to the busy days, our food reserves are still quite plentiful, which makes us look forward to the days to come.
Amidst this bustling activity, the next morning, just as the Maoduo family woke up and prepared to get to work, a torrential downpour began outside, accompanied by constant loud noises, giving them an unpleasant feeling.
Meanwhile, Maoduo suppressed the curiosity of her kittens about the outside world, covered themselves with animal skins, and snuggled up in bed to laze around. This could be considered one of the few rewards she received after many busy days.
