Ling Yun went home to put his things away, while Song Mu and Lin Qiu went to Pu Su's place to pick up the baby.
The five little tigers saw Lin Qiu from afar, and hurriedly ran half a meter with their four paws. Lin Qiu couldn't help laughing and went to greet them with a smile.
The five cubs tried to stop at her feet, but they pushed each other and fell all over the place.
Shi Wei, relying on the fact that he was bigger than his brothers, pushed the other four upside down and rubbed himself against Lin Qiu's ankles.
Lin Qiu bent down and picked up Shi Wei: "Let's go, let's go home quickly. Pu Su, thank you."
"You're welcome. If you need anything in the future, just let the kids come over."
To put it bluntly, the dormitory is just a nursery. These male cubs don't need to be taken care of. They just look at them for most of the day. As long as there are enough of them and enough arms and legs, it's fine.
"Then we'll go first. Thank you anyway." Lin Qiu walked in front holding Shi Wei, followed by the little cub, who was anxiously walking with his newly grown limbs, trying to catch up with his mother and get a hug.
Songmu swept them with his tail, urging them to go home quickly.
When they returned, Ling Yun had already dug a hole, ready to plant what he had just dug up in the ground, otherwise it would be drained away.
"Song Mu, go and cook," Ling Yun called out when he saw them coming back. "I'll go get two more buckets of water."
Song Mu drove the children to Ling Yun and asked him to watch over them: "Xiao Qiu, go home and rest."
"Okay, I'll take this kid back to bed." Lin Qiu poked Shi Wei in her arms. Her arms were a little sore from carrying him all the way. "Look, his eyes are bleary."
"This kid spends all day eating and sleeping. He doesn't look like he's from the same litter as the other kids."
Song Mu found it funny, so he reached out and grabbed Shi Wei by the scruff of the neck, dragged him into the yard, and threw him in through the window.
"Be gentle." Seeing Song Mu's strength, Lin Qiu was afraid that Shi Wei would be hurt.
"It's okay, they're tough. Go and have some rest, I'll get you something to eat."
Song Mu said as he went into the kitchen. Lin Qiu went into the house, carried Shi Wei into the nest, patted his head and coaxed him to sleep.

Qiu Hui led the team to the Rat Tribe. Bu'er remembered them, and when he saw the Tiger Tribe orcs, he welcomed them into the tribe with great enthusiasm.
The Rat Tribe lives by the water, and the entire tribe can hear the crackling sound of the waterfall in the back mountain.
"Don't you think it's too noisy here?" Qiu Hui felt that the voice was lingering in his ears, making him very irritated.
"Once you get used to it, the noise will stop." The rat tribe's hearing is different from that of other tribes. They can distinguish the sounds they want to hear from the noisy sounds. By using the sound of the waterfall, some natural enemies will not dare to approach.
"Why didn't Ling Yun come? I miss him a little bit!" After Bu'er returned to the tribe, he often talked about Ling Yun from the Tiger Tribe. He kept telling the people in their tribe how good the Tiger Tribe was. If it weren't for the Tiger Tribe, they would probably have been stopped and eaten by stray orcs.
Qiu Hui explained, "He succeeded us as our chief during the cold season and has to stay in the tribe. He sent me here to discuss some matters with you."
Bu'er had already noticed the bulging animal hide bag that Qiu Hui brought. He took another look at it, wondering what was inside. "If you have anything, just tell us. If it weren't for your tribe exchanging animal hides for us, we might not have survived this cold season."
This winter season is particularly cold, fortunately Ling Yun was generous and gave them thick and sufficient animal skins.
"We also brought some animal skins this time. The weather is getting warmer, and the females in your tribe are just right for making some new clothes." Qiu Hui saw Bu'er's eyes light up and said, "It's nothing special, it's just that the potatoes in your tribe are very delicious, and our tribe leader wants to exchange them for some more."
"Change some? Of course, these potatoes haven't gone bad yet. It's just that there aren't many potatoes left from the ones we dug up before winter break. When we dug them up again after the winter break, we found they had sprouted new shoots and smelled like they were inedible."
Poole felt sorry because he was afraid there were not many potatoes he could exchange for.
"We're not in a hurry to exchange. Besides the hides, we've also brought some stone tools. We'd like you to help us plant more potatoes. As long as we have enough potatoes, we'll send you more hides when the harvest arrives. We'll ensure you have plenty of hides for the next winter. If your females need meat, we can also provide that."
"What? What what? What are you talking about? I don't understand."
What does it mean to plant more potatoes?
Bu'er's little head was full of confusion. What was this tiger beastman saying? What did he want them to help with?
“We will teach you how to plant potatoes,” Qiu Hui said. “You just use the potatoes you have now as seeds and bury them in the ground.”
"Our patch will grow a lot more potatoes by then. Why should we bury the ones we've already dug? We'll keep them for later!"
"Of course it's because cultivated potatoes grow better than wild ones. Our tribe has already planted them. Trust us, we won't be wrong."
Putting aside the little disagreement with Ling Yun, Qiu Hui still trusted him very much. Even though the potatoes in the tribe had just sprouted, he still believed very firmly that Ling Yun's arrangement was correct.
Seeing how determined he was, Buer became very envious of the tiger tribe's animal skins.
After all, the Tiger Tribe is a very reliable partner. If they can establish a good relationship with them, they won’t have to worry about surviving the winter in the future.
"I can help you plant them, but if we plant the potatoes as you say and they don't grow, wouldn't that be a waste of them?"
Qiu Hui said, "We're going to use these hides to buy seeds. We won't let you suffer any loss. When the potatoes are harvested, send someone to us with a message. We'll find someone to bring hides or other items to exchange. Our tribe leader said we can give you the same amount of hides as last year."
The tiger orcs behind him took out animal hides. These were freshly tanned hides from the cold winter. "They're all new. Are these enough?"
When Bu'er saw the various furs that had been processed, he couldn't take his eyes off them.
Lian Lian said, "I knew you Tiger Tribe members were all very honest. These animal skins are more than enough!"
The animal skins worn in the cold season were given to the males, and these skins were just right for making new clothes for the females, saving the trouble of making clothes with nitrate.
"Then please arrange to start as soon as possible, we are in a hurry to get back."
Qiu Hui couldn't stay there for too long and was anxious to return to the female.
Bu'er expressed his understanding, went back and told the clan leader about the matter, found a piece of vacant land, and asked Professor Qiu Hui and his team to turn the soil and germinate the seeds.
