Shen Miao hesitated, not expecting that the other party had set their sights on her red-grade beast crystal.
She had intended to give this beast crystal to Qingchen, but he refused, so she kept it with her.
She didn't care much about these beast crystals; exchanging them all wouldn't make much difference anyway, since she could hunt them back later. Besides, Qingchen's illness wasn't cured by these beast crystals, so she agreed.
The main reason is that she was extremely satisfied with the cow.
The two sides reached an agreement. Shen Miao accepted the gifts and gave the beast crystal to Qing Yu. Both were very satisfied, much to the envy of the onlookers who were watching the spectacle.
Shen Miao put the things inside the house, and tied the cow in the yard.
After everyone left, she closed the door and started milking the cow with her calves. She was so happy with the cow that the calves were happy too.
The whole family drank milk that evening, including Qingchen. He didn't drink it, saying he didn't like it, but Shen Miao knew he wanted to save it for the children.
He told him that there was plenty of milk and that he needed to drink more milk to treat his illness.
Of course, one cow couldn't possibly feed a whole family, but Shen Miao had a supermarket, so she could drink as much as she wanted. After hearing this, Qing Chen silently picked up the bowl and drank.
When Xiao Sibao finished drinking, the milk in her bowl was almost untouched. When she saw Shen Miao looking over, she covered the bowl with her hands and whispered, "Mother, the milk doesn't taste good."
Shen Miao looked at the other children and they were all very reserved, so she probably didn't like them either.
She understood that the babies hadn't had anything to eat before, let alone milk. This was their first time drinking milk, so it was normal for them not to be used to it.
Shen Miao thought to herself that she would get used to drinking a little every day from now on.
Furthermore, she could also think of ways to make some delicious things with milk.
Shen Miao told them that milk could help them grow taller, and the children, who couldn't drink it, drank it even though they held their noses, especially the eldest, second, and third children, who couldn't wait to grow up.
Qingchen watched quietly as Shen Miao communicated with the children, his gaze unconsciously falling on Shen Miao. He felt that her face, which used to disgust him with just a glance, didn't seem so repulsive now.
Shen Miao handed over the task of taking care of the cow to a few of the calves.
The calves were very interested in the new member of the family, and every day they would cut a lot of grass and feed it to the cows.
Shen Miao once overheard the children feeding the cows. She heard Xiao Sibao say, "Cow, you need to eat more grass so you can have more milk. You can't be picky about food. Mother said that picky eaters are not good children."
It even reached out its little hand and touched the cow's body.
The cow cooperated well, rolling its tongue around and eating all the grass fed to it.
Compared to caring for animals, the family's pups are all incredibly patient. The snow wolf cubs, for example, have grown up noticeably, and the family truly treats them as family members.
But if anyone tries to take advantage of these members, the kids won't back down.
Everyone in the tribe knows that Shen Miao traded beast crystals for a cow, and now she can drink milk every day. Some people have started to covet the milk.
This person is Green Pearl.
She always felt that everything in Qingchen's house belonged to her, and she didn't know where her confidence came from.
So on this day, seeing that Shen Miao had gone out and that the little ones were cutting grass behind her, she secretly ran into Shen Miao's house, took the washed animal hides, and hurriedly began milking the cows.
Unexpectedly, the ox was uncooperative, pacing back and forth and refusing to let Green Pearl squeeze in.
"You damned ox, behave yourself," Green Pearl scolded in a low voice.
The beast couldn't understand human speech. Not only did it not behave, it almost kicked Green Pearl. The commotion was so loud that the old female beast inside the house was startled and quickly came out to check.
Upon seeing that it was a stranger coming to milk the cow, the old female beast hurriedly asked, "Who are you? Why are you milking my cow?"
Green Pearl tried to argue, "Shen Miao sent me here."
The old female was skeptical, but just then, the cubs returned, carrying a large pile of hay. When they saw Green Pearl standing in front of their cow, with some milk in her animal skin, they were immediately enraged.
Erbao charged headfirst at her, yelling, "You wicked female beast, you stole my milk! I'll beat you to death!"
The food at home has been good lately, and Erbao has gained a lot of weight and is quite strong. Green Pearl was almost knocked over by the bump and screamed, "What are you doing, you rude little brat? It's all because of your rude and annoying mother!"
"You're not allowed to talk about her like that!" Da Bao rushed over as well.
“Stealing my things and cursing my family, you despicable female beast!” Sanbao followed closely behind.
"Ugh!" Little Sibao stomped his foot angrily.
Green Pearl was surrounded by several cubs, and her animal skin skirt was almost ripped off. She shouted angrily, "Stop! Stop! Stop it!"
Shen Miao saw Green Pearl coming this way from outside, and rushed back as fast as she could, only to see this scene.
When Green Pearl saw her, she hurriedly exclaimed, "Chen Miao, you actually instructed your children to hurt people! You've gone too far! They're still so young. How can you raise them like this? How can you face Brother Qingchen?"
Shen Miao was initially quite anxious, but seeing her children gaining the upper hand, she smiled instead. She stood there with her arms crossed and immediately retorted, "Did my child go to your house to hurt you, or to your house to scold you? If not, then shut up! Stealing someone's milk and still having the nerve to talk big, who gave you that right?!"
Green Pearl said, embarrassed and annoyed, "What's wrong with me milking some of the cows from Brother Qingchen's cows? You don't need that much."
"You have so much meat, it's okay for me to go and get some, why don't you bring it to me?"
Green Pearl was so embarrassed by the rebuke that she pushed the children away and walked out. As she passed by Shen Miao, she said resentfully, "Shen Miao, you are so annoying. Once Brother Qingchen is better, he will definitely kick you out. Don't be so smug."
Shen Miao gave her a cold laugh.
Green Pearl left angrily, feeling more and more upset. In the past, Shen Miao was inferior to her in every way, and the beastmen also disliked her. She didn't know why, but recently Shen Miao had become more and more prominent.
She can hunt and exchange so many things with beast crystals, how come those things aren't hers? I wish they were hers.
Shen Miaocai didn't bother to think about what Green Pearl was thinking. She called the children over and said seriously, "If you encounter something like this in the future, don't go over there. Come to your mother, understand?"
If Green Pearl harbors evil intentions and harms the children, she will have no time to regret it.
The children, bewildered, eagerly exclaimed, "Mommy, we are very brave, we are not afraid of her!"
"That's right, she stole our things, and she couldn't win an argument with us."
Shen Miao patiently said, "You don't know what she's thinking. If she hits you, and your mother isn't home, wouldn't you be at a disadvantage? So listen to me, and in the future, when no adults are around, you're not allowed to go against bad people."
The children seemed to understand, but they all nodded obediently.
