Chapter 12: Such a shabby house
F6 is a slum area, with dilapidated houses and tap water that has only been disinfected twice. Although it is within the safe range, long-term drinking will cause harm to the orcs.
This is also the reason why Mrs. Gu looks older than other people of the same age.
Bai Yu and Abis had never been to the slums. When they smelled the strange smell in the water, they looked at Gu Xi at the same time.
It turns out that the little female has been drinking this kind of water since she was young?
No wonder she was unwilling to recognize Gu Luo as her mother. Gu Luo lived a good life with other beastly husbands and the children they gave birth to, but she always ignored Gu Xi.
Both males felt sorry for Gu Xi, but Gu Xi drank the water as usual.
Then she saw her grandmother bringing out some slightly processed meat from the kitchen.
The nutrient solution was too expensive, so the orcs in the slums returned to their ancient ways and sometimes went hunting in the forest. They washed the meat they had hunted ten times with tap water containing disinfectant, then heated it up and used it to fill their stomachs.
But this kind of meat, like tap water and all plants on the planet, contains pollutants. Eating a little for a short period of time can be excreted by the orcs, but if taken for a long time, it will shorten the lifespan of the orcs.
This is also the reason why the noble orcs only eat nutrient solution.
The noble class can still make do, but the orcs in the slums can't care about that. A shorter lifespan is better than death.
When Gu Xi saw the meat, she knew that it was her grandmother's love for her, so she took the plate without hesitation.
"Thank you grandma~"
She smiled sweetly, but pursed her lips when she saw the beast meat.
In her memory, the beast meat she saw looked like normal meat, but why was there some black particles floating on the meat she saw? What were these particles? When Gu Xi was puzzled, Old Lady Gu had already distributed the other beast meat and the nutrient solution at home to Bai Yu and Abis.
"I'm sorry, this is the best food we have." The old lady looked apologetic, "If you don't like it, there's nutrient solution here."
Bai Yu smiled gently: "This is something that Gu...Xixi often eats. I just want to try it."
Bai Yu suddenly changed his words because of what Gu Xi and the old lady had just said.
Gu Xi said that he had never asked to be her beastly husband, and then he realized that this was the crux of the problem between him and Gu Xi.
Gu Xi may need direct courtship rather than implicit expression.
The first step is to change the name.
Suddenly hearing Bai Yu calling him Xixi, Gu Xi looked up in confusion and happened to meet Bai Yu's doting golden eyes.
Gu Xi blushed and lowered his eyes.
Then something surprising happened again. Abis's cold voice rang out: "Thank you, grandma. If Xixi can eat it, I can eat it too."
Gu Xi raised his eyes again and stared at Abis.
The latter avoided her gaze and cut a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. The meat was only cooked, but the rest of it still tasted natural.
It definitely doesn’t taste as good as the high-quality nutrient solution after you take it.
But Abis ate it with a normal expression.
So is white jade.
Gu Xi saw that both of them had already put the meat into their mouths. He hesitated for a while, but still didn't say anything more.
In fact, Gu Xi really wanted to ask directly, did you see anything black on the meat?
But when she said this, it sounded too much like she was disliking grandma's cooking skills, and grandma would definitely be sad to hear it.
After the meal, Bai Yu took the initiative to speak: "Grandma, Abis and I are going to go outside for a walk. You and Xixi must have a lot to talk about."
After Bai Yu said this, he patted Abis on the shoulder and motioned Abis to leave with him.
Abis understood what Bai Yu meant. He was not a fool who knew nothing about the ways of the world.
The two males got up and left, and Gu Xi thoughtfully helped the old lady clean up the dishes and the table. Then, the grandparents and grandchildren sat on the broken sofa in the living room and told each other about their worries and miss for each other.
The medical level at StarCraft is very good. After she successfully registered from Area F6, her grandmother stayed in the hospital for a week. Her physical indicators were normal, so she was discharged and went home immediately.
After talking about the topic among relatives, the little old lady changed the subject and asked Gu Xi: "Xiao Xi, I see that your relationship with the admiral is not very good. Is there anything going on between you two?"
Gu Xi never hides anything from his family.
She said that marking Abis was an accident and that they signed the agreement without being husband and wife.
The old lady's light blue eyes showed some contemplation, and she asked Gu Xi: "What do you think, Xiao Xi? He has taken your first beast husband's spot. Do you want to wait for the second beast husband to be randomly selected?"
Gu Xi was silent for a while, then said embarrassedly: "Grandma, I haven't made up my mind yet. If possible, I still want a male who is willing to marry me."
Gu Xi's words made the old lady sneer: "What's the point of being in love with each other? Have you forgotten that after you were found to have only F mental power, your childhood sweetheart decisively abandoned you and got together with the little female from our district chief's family?"
Childhood sweethearts?
It took Gu Xi a long time to retrieve the information of this male from his mind.
When Mu Ai was young, the little white cat and the big orange cat had the same appearance, lived in the same neighborhood, and even received compulsory education in the same class, so they easily developed feelings for each other.
Orcs express their emotions very eagerly. The big orange cat often changes into its original form in front of its original body and eagerly courts a mate.
Fortunately, the original body was also a shy person and always firmly rejected the big orange cat. She was not as open to having sex with the big orange cat as other females.
Later, the original body was found to have no fertility value and its mental strength was also F.
The big orange cat threw himself into the arms of other females and became one of their beastly husbands.
"Grandma, I haven't forgotten." Gu Xi told her grandmother very seriously, "But I still want to be in love with each other before getting married."
Seeing her granddaughter's insistence, the old lady sighed, "Okay, okay, but grandma hasn't said goodbye to her friends yet. Can we go to the capital in a few days?"
"good."
Gu Xi would naturally agree to grandma's request.
What's more, it's not too much to go to the Duke's Mansion a few days later.
So, when Baiyu and Abis came back from their walk, they were informed that they would be back a few days later.
Bai Yu didn't show anything from beginning to end, but when the old lady wasn't paying attention, Abis whispered venomously to Gu Xi: "It's just such a shabby house. There's nothing valuable in it, and there's no security system. Is it necessary to stay here for several days?"
Gu Xi frowned when he heard this: "If you are not used to living here, you can leave first. I saw that when you were half man and half beast, you ran faster than the Phoenix."
Her voice was soft, but her words were still very infuriating.
Abis frowned, looked at Gu Xi deeply, and said coldly: "Let's go!"
Seeing Abis leave, the old lady went straight to lock the door of the house, then turned around and spoke with a smile on her face.
"There are only two rooms in the house. Your Highness the Crown Prince will sleep on the bed today, and Xixi, you can sleep on the floor in your room. It's very cold in the F6 area at night, and our heating hasn't been renewed. It would be bad if Your Highness the Crown Prince was left cold."
After saying that, the old lady went straight into her room to sleep, leaving Gu Xi and Bai Yu staring at each other in the narrow living room.
