The three snake cubs stared longingly at Mao Duoduo, and Mao Duoduo immediately fell silent.
Wait a minute, it's true she didn't lie to the snake cubs, but the original owner did it often, and often used it as an excuse to bully these little guys...
Just as the atmosphere became awkward, several snake cubs excitedly lay down on her lap, happily saying, "Good mother, looking for father."
What could Maoduo say but couldn't help but chuckle?
Naturally, she didn't notice that a figure at the door hesitated for a long time before coming in.
After pondering for a moment, Gal decided to sit at the doorway. He quickly transformed into his original form and disappeared into the deep forest, turning his thoughts into the primal drive to hunt.
What is he thinking? What gives him the right to have a partner? And what is the necessity for him to have a partner?
Cat Dodo and her child are living a perfectly good life; they don't need to suffer with a beastman like him at all...
The next day, Maoduoduo was woken up again by several snake cubs pressing down on her.
She yawned, slowly got up, and made breakfast, mainly wild vegetable soup early in the morning.
Several snake cubs have clearly shown a preference for meat and a dislike for vegetables. This is not good. As young snakes, they must maintain a balanced diet in order to grow up properly.
Snake cubs: "..." Mother, does that mean love can disappear?
Waaaaah, I want meat! They won't eat grass, but they'll still grow up!
Unfortunately, they will still be under the care of the cats until they grow up.
At this moment, Maoduoduo showed his patriarchal and authoritarian side, suppressing them and demanding that they eat it.
It was during this chaotic and lively time at home that Yuri arrived, bringing with her newborn female cub.
"Ahem, sorry, I didn't clean the house properly, and you had to laugh at me." Mao Duoduo was a little embarrassed.
Yuli, however, didn't take it seriously and cheerfully gave the gift she had brought to Maoduoduo.
When Maoduo took a look, she was quite surprised. These were seashells, strung together as a necklace, and they looked very pretty.
“I’m very good at knitting. I found this when I went to the beach with my partner. I hope you don’t mind.” Yuri smiled.
The other person is indeed very good-looking, with fair and delicate skin, and overall gives off a very gentle and elegant vibe.
Cat Duoduo naturally kept praising Yuli, making her blush. Only then did Cat Duoduo stop praising her and join Yuli in playing with her cubs...
That's right, playing with cubs.
The three snake cubs were sent away by the cat, Duoduo, to wander around the neighborhood with bamboo baskets on their backs, ready to run to her if anything happened. No longer needing to eat wild vegetables, they happily ran off.
Meanwhile, CatDodo looked at the female kitten crawling all over the bed, her smile gentle and tender. "So cute, she's so soft."
"Then I must thank you. If it weren't for you, this child wouldn't have been born." She might even be dead.
Yuri had seen far too many difficult females. Males were relatively easy to deal with, possessing strong bodies and able to survive as long as nothing went wrong. But females faced the ordeal of childbirth, and if they couldn't overcome it, they would die.
"These are all hypotheticals, the reality is the child is fine. Indeed, girls are the cutest." Cat Duoduo couldn't help but tug at the animal skin and gesture along with Yuri as they worked on making clothes for the female cub.
She was quick-witted and had witnessed the explosion of modern information and the behavior of many parents who pushed their children to excel. She gave Yuli a lot of advice on how to dress her daughter.
If conditions allowed, Yuri would have liked to take down the clay tablet and record it...
Even so, with noon fast approaching, Yuli took the children back to get something to eat.
Seeing that Maoduo was reluctant to part with the person, she couldn't help but take a jar of salt and give it to Youli.
"What is this?" Yuri asked, puzzled.
"Salt, oh." Cat Duoduo offered someone a small bite, and the unique flavor made Yuli squint her eyes involuntarily.
CatDodo then gave a simple explanation of how to use it. Upon hearing that it could make food taste even better and even suppress the original strong flavor of meat, Yuli was very excited and thanked him repeatedly before leaving.
Watching her leave, Maoduo couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Sure enough, girls are cuter..."
She fell silent after seeing the snake cubs, who were covered in dirt but carrying heavy loads of bamboo shoots on their backs.
She couldn't help but smile, and went over to them, ruffling their hair. "How many times have I told you? You're still running around everywhere."
"But Mother loves bamboo shoots..." The snake cubs said confidently, their adorable appearance almost melting Cat Duoduo's heart.
Alright, judging by how these kids behave, she's decided to serve them Kobe beef tonight. Surprisingly, there's still this in the space's cold storage; CatDodo accepts it without hesitation.
Everyone ate their fill at dinner. Incidentally, Gal returned just before dinner, carrying back a large amount of prey.
CatDodo was dumbfounded, successfully ignoring the fact that the snake cubs' faces were full of smugness; how could they possibly compare to Gal's expression?
"...Did you do all of these?"
"Hmm. Is there a problem?"
"No, no, no, I know what to do."
Cat Duoduo gritted her teeth and decided that after dinner, she would simply process the prey and braise it.
At this point, we were fortunate that the stone pot at home was big enough, and we had several spares. We started working at the same time, and family members took turns getting up at night to add firewood and water.
Naturally, the next morning, the braised meat was ready, and its aroma wafted for miles. But soon, Maoduoduo covered up the fragrance and cut off its spread, causing countless orcs and beasts who came for the aroma to leave in resentment.
In the evening, Maoduoduo also packed things, focusing on ensuring sufficient supplies while also making it convenient for them to go out.
The snake cubs were overjoyed at the sight. "Mother, are we going to find Father?"
“Yeah.” CatDodo said while tidying up, “I’ll have to tell Valina later and ask her to look after the house for us.”
I wonder where the Serpent Rong are now. Sigh, this is another confusing situation.
At that moment, the orc who appeared at the door said calmly, "I'll go too."
"Huh?" CatDodo suddenly turned around and looked at him. Gal lowered his eyes, but said with absolute certainty, "I'll go with you to find him."
The cat, Duoduo, wanted to speak, but couldn't utter a single word.
After a long pause, she spoke with difficulty: "Are you sure you don't want to go back to your family?"
He didn't say anything, but he gave Mao Duoduo a feeling of rejection.
Alright, since that's what they said, Maoduoduo had no choice but to agree.
No matter what, these days, it's still quite dangerous for her to be with three cubs whose snake galls are coveted by many. With Gal, an adult beastman, around, her safety will be greatly increased.
