Chapter 111
Qi and others came in carrying various things, including a large number of scallop combs and various dry goods. After greeting Lu, they carried all the things to the basement of Yu Sui's storage room.
Yu Sui left a bag of pearls for Aunt Lu, as well as two scallop combs, one large and one small. The large one in animal shape was used to comb hair, and the small one was used to comb hair when in human form.
Lu took the heavy cloth bag and looked at Yu Sui kindly, "You've really grown up and even prepared a gift for me."
"Aunt Lu, open it and see if you like it." Yu Sui scratched his head and said to Lu expectantly.
Green looked at the cub's eyes, smiled helplessly, and untied the rope of the cloth bag.
As the cloth bag was slowly opened, a fresh ocean scent with a light salty taste blew in the air, and the round and plump pearls specially selected by Yu Sui were revealed. Each pearl exuded a soft color and lay quietly in the palm of Yu Sui's hand.
No one can refuse such a beautiful pearl, even the snow werewolf is no exception. There is a glint of surprise in his green eyes. He carefully holds it in his hands, feeling the cool touch it brings.
"This is really beautiful. Xiaoyu is still considerate and much stronger than Qi."
Lu carefully put the pearl back into the cloth bag, tied the bag gently, held it in her arms with care, praised Sui with a smile on her face, and glanced at her son standing beside her.
Yu Sui said shyly, "This was also found for me by Brother Qi."
"They are so beautiful. They look like the pearls that sea orcs use for trading, but they are not as big and shiny as theirs." Yun came over and said, with admiration in his eyes.
Of course, they are not as good as those used by sea orcs. They only find them in the near sea, while theirs are products of the deep sea.
But these things couldn't be said out loud. Yu Sui smiled and said, "I exchanged these with the Minotaur. They're pretty good for decoration."
Yun and Notting still needed to continue their night watch, so before they left, Yu Sui gave each of them a large scallop comb.
Xu was very enthusiastic about combing their hair. He picked up the comb and combed their hair a few times. The slightly curly hair became smooth and compliant after combing, and the feeling of the comb sliding on the fur was also particularly fascinating.
No animal can resist the charm of combing its hair. Yun and Xu both liked this gift very much and happily tried to comb their hair for a long time.
In the end, both of them happily took the gifts and continued to keep watch. It was too late, so Xu did not go home to disturb his family and stayed at Yu Sui's house.
Shuyu, as a fragile human being, was picked up by Yu Sui. The dwarf's house was too small for Shuyu, so it was natural for him to stay.
After the two left, Lu looked at Shuyu and asked, "Is this a human? Why did you bring a human to the tribe?"
Shu Yu was picked up by Yu Sui, so he explained, "Well, I found him on the beach. He seemed to be under a spell at the time, and he had nowhere to go, so I brought him back."
Shuyu nodded politely to Lu, "I really have nowhere to stay. Yu Sui brought me here for my safety. I hope I haven't caused you any trouble."
His long black hair fell on his shoulders like a waterfall, and his pure black eyes were like the night sky, condensing the brightest stars. He had a slender and elegant figure, and wore a robe made of dark green elven cloth, embroidered with intricate and delicate patterns of the same color.
Although he had no other decorations on his body except for a simple silver ring on his finger, he looked very noble and elegant.
Faced with such a person, Lu couldn't say no.
Although orcs have never taken in humans, since they already have dwarves in their tribe, one more human shouldn't be a problem...
Being used to seeing tall and handsome orcs with strong physiques and muscles as twisted and powerful as the roots of ancient trees, a young man like Shuyu is simply a breath of fresh air.
"Ah, how much can humans eat? Since Xiaoyu Sui picked you up, just keep you." Lu quickly changed sides.
"You've been through so much at such a young age. You humans don't care for your cubs at all. It's warm here, Yu Yu. You and him can live here first. We'll help you build a house next year."
After looking Shuyu up and down, Lu continued to mutter.
Shuyu's gentle and polite expression almost cracked when he heard the cub, and the corner of his eye twitched slightly.
After hearing that Lu also agreed to let Shuyu stay, Yu Sui went to the kang to check on the sleeping Xiaochu with peace of mind. He saw the golden furry little lion curled up under the quilt, snoring on the warm kang. They talked for a long time but couldn't wake Xiaochu up.
Yu Sui pinched Xiaochu's nose and put the animal skin wrapped with honey into Xiaochu's arms. Xiaochu, who was sleeping soundly, turned over and hugged the animal skin in his arms without knowing it.
Smelling a different smell, Lu looked at the animal skin in surprise and asked, "It smells like orcs, or maybe it's a snake?"
The smell of snake orcs is cold and sticky, and you can smell it at once.
"It's like this, uh, on our way there, I also picked up some snake cubs..." Yu Sui said hesitantly.
After listening for a long time, Xu couldn't help laughing, and the corners of Lian Qi's lips rose slightly.
Lu helplessly reached out and patted Yu Sui's head gently, "Are you going to refine salt or pick up people? Why did you pick up a snake cub? Where are his tribesmen?"
The process of picking up Mimi was a bit embarrassing. Yu Sui blushed and hesitated without saying a word.
Xu Hehe smiled and took over the conversation, "We were picking fruits, and Xiaoyu was playing by himself. He accidentally stepped on this cub..."
He vividly performed for Lu the entire process of Yu Sui stepping on Mimi, which made Lu laugh so hard that she almost cried.
"You youngsters are all more troublesome than the other." Lu concluded, tapping Yu Sui's head with his finger.
Yu Sui was so embarrassed that he just wanted to bury his head in the ground. He quickly changed the subject, "By the way, that fruit is so sweet and delicious. It actually bears fruit in winter. We still have a few left. Aunt Lu, you can try some."
As he said that, he took out a few white fruits and handed them to Lu in a flattering manner.
After returning to the tribe, everyone felt very relaxed.
After a long journey that lasted almost a month, everyone was very tired. After sharing a few fruits, Yu Sui found a large wooden tub to take a bath.
The stove built by the dwarves was also installed in the storage room. At this time, a fire was lit in the stove. When the coal inside burned vigorously and the chimney was dyed red by the smoke, the storage room was already very warm.
Yu Sui and the others took turns taking a bath in the house to wash away their fatigue.
Shuyu originally wanted to refuse, but Yu Sui pushed him in without any explanation.
Two large pots of steaming hot water were boiled in a large pot connected to the kang. Adding some cold water to the wooden basin, it was so comfortable.
I have to say that Yu Sui’s decision to dig a well was a wise one. It made it convenient to get water as he didn’t have to go to the river to break ice and melt it.
