The next day, Haitang got up and went out to check on things at the fabric shop. The silkworms were all hibernating, wrapped in silk, and no movement could be seen inside. Because of the silkworms' strike, the fabric shop was not open for business.
Haitang went inside and saw some scraps of cloth, about half the size of a piece, all placed not far away. Haitang picked them up and looked at them directly. People in the cloth shop wouldn't take things back.
It should be said that people in this era have a strong sense of self-awareness and will not take things that do not belong to them. After looking at the cloth, Haitang carried it out and put it on the horse's back, and began to give it to the children who were going to work.
The recipients were delighted to receive the fabric; the two pieces could be pieced together to make a summer garment. After giving the begonia to Guyue, they also gave one to her.
Gu Yue had been running a fever for the past few days, but she had been forcing herself to endure it. Today, she was feeling dizzy and weak when she heard Hai Tang calling for her. She tried to get up, but Hai Tang pressed her down.
"Going out all night long, how can your body take it? Are you really courting death?" Haitang was dressed very warmly, wearing a base layer, a wool sweater and pants, and a fur coat over it, with fur-lined shoes before going out.
The problem is that Gu Yue is dressed too lightly. It's no wonder he'll get sick if he goes out like this. Hai Tang brews medicine for him and makes him take it. Gu Yue's older brother has gone to collect river clams.
There's a shortage of food at home, and it's sometimes difficult to find good prey while hunting outside, so we might as well collect more river clams.
Upon hearing Haitang's words, Guyue said, "Teacher, I... I just wanted to help." Guyue looked a little embarrassed when she saw Haitang.
Haitang sighed, ruffled the other's hair, gave her some gifts, told Guyue a few things, and then left, telling Guyue to take good care of herself.
The next day, Haitang brought over some eggs. Guyue initially refused, saying, "Just borrow them, you can pay me back later." Hearing this, Guyue nodded and accepted them.
The little girl was very stubborn. When Haitang looked at her, she felt quite helpless. On the way back, Dongfang Long also dragged some bamboo back. Haitang walked over to him when she saw it.
"What do you plan to do with the bamboo?" Haitang walked up to Dongfang Long and smiled at her.
“Weave a basket.” Haitang looked at Dongfang Long, who then said, “If you put it in the river, the fish will swim over and get caught.” Dongfang Long wanted to make a huge basket, two meters long.
The fish will all be caught then. Haitang looked at Dongfanglong. Dongfanglong was doing something similar to making fishing nets. She had taught him how to weave them. Dongfanglong and Xiaohe were able to apply what they had learned to other situations.
Haitang nodded and said, "Then make me a bamboo chair with a rocking back." Haitang said this while looking at Dongfang Long.
Originally, Dongfang Long thought the other party could do anything, but instead looked at Haitang and said jokingly, "Then draw a diagram for me, I'm eager to learn..."
"...Are you serious?" Haitang asked Dongfang Long. "Never mind, I was just joking with you."
"I'm not joking. Tangtang, you are my female. You have demands that I, a beastman, must fulfill. A beastman who cannot satisfy his female is not a good beastman," Dongfang Long said seriously.
Besides, it's rare for Tangtang to say she wants something, so I'm determined to make it for her. Haitang looked at Dongfang Long and blinked. "Okay, I'll draw it for you when we get back," Haitang said, and Dongfang Long nodded.
"Get on." Dongfang Long squatted down and let Haitang climb onto his back. When Haitang looked at the bamboo poles, she hesitated for a moment before rushing onto them.
While supporting Haitang's bottom, Dongfanglong dragged the bamboo back. Tangtang seemed to have softened a lot, but actually she had just gotten a little fatter and felt more fleshy.
Of course, he didn't show it. Tangtang seemed to hate these things, so he had to hide it secretly and not let Tangtang know that he had gotten fat. Chubby Tangtang felt good to hug.
The reason why Haitang made Dongfang Long feel that he couldn't say anything about being fat was because one night, Dongfang Long put his arm around Haitang's waist and said, "Tangtang, your waist is so soft and fleshy." He was then kicked out of bed for a day, and from then on, he dared not say it again.
Dongfang Long felt that Tangtang was more adorable when she was chubby and had a soft body. When he hugged her, she was just like a fragrant doll.
Haitang didn't know what Dongfang Long was thinking. Even if she did, she couldn't help but get angry. There are three taboos for women: [You've gained weight], [You have wrinkles on your face], and [How old are you] are all questions that should never be asked.
Dongfang Long's back was broad and warm. Haitang vaguely fell asleep on Dongfang Long's back. After Haitang fell asleep, Dongfang Long carried her to the bed. Tangtang had been feeling sleepy lately.
While thinking about some things, he wondered if he should remind Haitang. Dongfang Long remembered the times they had argued at night before, and Haitang hadn't gone to get her medicine. He had also forgotten that he had originally planned to go get her medicine after the argument.
The problem is... after he had eaten and drunk his fill, and Haitang was so tired that she fainted, he fell asleep holding Tangtang. Later, he realized that he was afraid of being scolded by Tangtang and making her unhappy, so he didn't say anything. Besides, he did some calculations and found that Tangtang was eighteen years old.
It's time to have a baby, but I'm still a little afraid that Haitang will be angry. Haitang's excessive sleepiness isn't because of pregnancy; she knows her own body best.
She was sleepy because she felt her body was lacking nutrition, like a tiger that was never full, always just a little short. Haitang, on the other hand, wanted ginseng to help her get enough energy.
She understands that while it's okay to take supplements, it needs to be done slowly. She's unsure if her body can handle such a lot of supplements, and that overdoing it might make her feel even worse.
