Hearing his mother's call, the little lion leaped gently into her arms, his happy tail almost reaching the sky.
"Mom, what's delicious?"
My mom is so kind! She even brings them food when she goes out to play.
Yang Yun's eyes sparkled, and the corners of his lips never left his mouth after he saw Sheng Xia return.
"Xiaxia, rest for a while, dinner will be ready soon."
"Okay~" Sheng Xia nodded with a smile.
With a smile in her fair, pink eyes, she placed clean, soft cushions on the sofa and walked over with seemingly relaxed posture but actually quick steps.
He glanced at the troublesome lion, then placed a light kiss on the top of Xia's head: "Xia, go sit on the sofa."
The baby has grown up, and Xiaxia's arms and legs are so thin that she gets tired of holding him for too long, but she still loves holding him...
In the height of summer, her eyes were soft and warm as she sat on the sofa, holding the slightly heavy little lion cub in her arms, unable to suppress the smile on her lips.
She unconsciously lowered her voice and said, "Mom brought some ginkgo nuts. They're sweet and delicious after being roasted. Would you like to try some, Qing?"
"Mother, if you want to try it, the younger sisters can eat first." Shi Qing raised her head, her eyes sparkling, full of flattery.
Good things should be given to Mom and my sister first; he's male, so it's okay if he eats them later.
Slurp, slurp, it looks so delicious...
Seeing his greedy look, Shengxia took one from Jiaosu's hand with doting affection, broke it in half, and handed one piece to Shiqing.
"Aqing, eat up. Your sister has plenty more, enough for her."
In an instant, the cozy living room was filled with a sweet aroma.
She sat on the living room sofa, with two adorable panda cubs on her left and a soft, cute pink lop-eared rabbit on her right.
He held a fiery red fox and a dazzling golden mermaid in his arms.
At its feet were little lambs, lion cubs, and silver wolves.
The feeling of being surrounded by fur is something you have to experience to understand!
Shengxia looked at her cubs with soft, warm eyes, gently stroking the fur on the back of their necks, feeling content and at peace.
After the kittens were able to eat solid food, they would eat until their bellies were round and chubby, and they visibly gained weight.
The fruit was fragrant and soft, and the little rabbit nestled against the summer sun, eating with blissful abandon.
In the height of summer, her eyes held a gentle smile.
After playing around for a while, Shengxia remembered her business and looked up at Tiebai with a smile.
"Ah Bai, come with me to find the chief. We've exchanged some food seeds with the Fierce Tiger Tribe this time."
I'll keep half for myself and give the other half to the tribe, to see if we can plant another crop before the snow season.
If all else fails, you can ask Aoki to help ripen it.
The snowy season is tough, but ginkgo nuts can be preserved, and they taste good and are high in calories, making them a good choice for young cubs and females.
"good."
As the sun rose higher overhead, Shengxia watched the emotionally charged chief and felt deeply moved.
The chieftain's wholehearted concern for his people touched the beastman's heart, even though he was sometimes a bit shameless.
"Xiaxia, could you give me two more of those white berries?" His partner would definitely love them; my mating chances are guaranteed!
Sheng Xia's almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile as she affirmed, "Of course, I specially saved two for you."
As she spoke, she turned her head and met Tie Bai's clear, smiling pink eyes. Her almond-shaped eyes curved slightly, and she playfully winked her right eye at him.
For some reason, it was the same blink of an eye, but when he blinked twice, he didn't feel anything, but when he blinked only one eye, Tie Bai felt like he was being mesmerized.
So cute! I want to kiss them!
He slightly restrained himself, turned around with a relaxed posture, took out two large white fruits that he had prepared in advance from his basket, and placed them in front of the chief.
"Oh, right, Xiaxia, come with me." The chief suddenly remembered something, looked at Shengxia with a kind face, stood up and walked towards the backyard.
Shengxia exchanged a curious glance with Tiebai, then got up and followed the chief.
Stepping out the back door, you see three small hills: sweet potatoes, wheat, and potatoes.
The bountiful harvest brings joy to the animals. In the height of summer, they raise their heads, their bright almond-shaped eyes shining with delight.
Looking at the neatly stacked mountains, she asked in confusion, "What's this?"
She knew she had gained a lot from the back mountain; the tribe's newly built cellars and warehouses were ridiculously large, so there shouldn't be any problem with them not having enough space.
This stuff is piled up at the chief's house, is it the chief's stockpile?
Lion Mountain laughed heartily: "Xiaxia, after you leave... a new batch... Aoki will be born..."
"These awards are for Aoki. Since you're here, just accept them."
Shishan excitedly recounted the whole story, and judging from his radiant face, Shengxia knew how much he had gained.
She didn't mince words, and nodded with a smile.
"Okay, I'll take it right away."
After she finished speaking, she walked over and placed her fair palm on the potato, then the wheat, and finally the sweet potato.
The three mountains disappeared one after another and appeared in space.
The chief was so happy he didn't know what to say. From the moment he entered until he left, Sheng Xia hadn't seen the chief's eyes once.
From then on, the cultivation of ginkgo fruits began, and the entire Yafatu area was bustling with activity, filled with hopeful anticipation for the future.
But that's a story for another time...
The birds singing in the trees added a touch of wild charm.
As Shengxia and Tiebai emerged from the chief's house, she looked up at the sky, squinting to savor the comfort of the gentle breeze.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Tie Bai's pink eyes. She suddenly realized that his beautiful light pink eyes were looking at her with tender affection.
Sheng Xia was stunned for a moment, then casually stuffed the white fruit in her hand into his mouth.
As soon as the fruit entered his mouth, his iron-white eyes curved slightly. He smiled gently and savored it carefully. The delicate, soft, and sweet taste instantly won him over.
“It’s perfect for females and cubs to eat. Let’s give them more space to grow more so that Aoki can help them reproduce. His ability has leveled up.”
These past two days, Aoki has been going to the back mountain whenever he has free time to help the newly planted wheat, sweet potatoes, and potatoes ripen, saying he wants to store more food for his people.
It was also his suggestion to plant another batch as soon as possible.
However, he was impatient and did his best to ripen all the wheat that was about to mature. He was so exhausted that he unexpectedly advanced to a higher level.
Shengxia knew how difficult it was to advance in rank on her own, and that Qingmu must have suffered a lot. Her heart ached, and she walked along, holding Tiebai's arm and asking him questions.
"Where is Aoki now? And what about Koyuki?"
"Qingmu went to help Chengguo's family ripen their sunflowers, and Huxue went hunting in the Midsummer Forest. She'll be back tonight."
Upon hearing the words "Summer Forest," Shengxia felt physically uncomfortable. She bit her lower lip and shivered with a nauseating chill.
Her delicate fingers unconsciously rested on her arm, rubbing away non-existent goosebumps.
Tie Bai chuckled helplessly. His Xiaxia was just too shy.
He stretched out his long arms, picked up Shengxia, and gently placed her in the crook of his arm, speaking in a clear and melodious voice.
"Xia, would you like to stroll around for a while or go straight home?"
Shengxia instinctively hugged his neck, instantly enveloped by the fresh scent of grass and trees emanating from Tie Bai. Feeling a sweet warmth in her heart, she turned her face and planted a kiss on the corner of his lips.
Tilting his head playfully, he said, "I'll kiss you first~"
