Communicate with furry animals without any barriers, and take the farm to the next level

Chapter 320 Pink Cake
Above the new burrow of the grass-tailed rat, a clump of thorny privet, exerting a powerful pressure on the surrounding magical beasts, took firm root around the entrance of the burrow.

No single scruffy mouse could squeeze into this little nest, which was full of abundant food, to steal a bite.

They would be strangled to death by this terrifying clump of grass.

Since arriving at the Glimmer Farm, the Grass-tailed Mouse has been living a more and more carefree life. Not to mention the delicious food and drinks it enjoys with its rock rat brother, it's all a piece of cake for it.

Even more coincidentally, they encountered a pitiful clump of Spiny Sand Ferns, the best survival partner for these grass-tailed rats, and also the most common plant monsters in their homeland. Meeting them here was like two fellow countrymen meeting again, their eyes brimming with tears of joy.

But how did my fellow villager get so badly injured? He won't die, but he's just hanging on by a thread. Who knows when he'll be able to come back to life?

However, it doesn't matter. That was before it met the grass-tailed rat. Now that it has met it, it would be difficult for it not to live well and thrive.

Despite its small size, it was incredibly brave. One morning, after making all the necessary preparations, it solemnly knocked on the door of the steward named Oswin.

They demanded that he give them some *Symplocos edulis*.

Yes, request it.

A human who has raised a spiny bonnet to this pitiful state does not deserve to possess it.

The grass-tailed rat had already prepared its plan: if this despicable man didn't hand over the thorny sedge, it would go to Josh to seek justice and make Josh teach him a lesson.

I just don't know if Josh would be willing.

To everyone's surprise, the man agreed in a good-natured manner. Even when it jumped onto the window and barked and gestured at him, he didn't pay any attention and carefully carried the prickly ash to its nest.

The grass-tailed rat was a little confused. How could it be so easy to get the villagers over?
It couldn't understand it, but it knew it was time for it to show its worth.

With its innate ability, it selectively gnaws away the overburdened withered grass on the thorny sedge, helping its delicate and fragile root system to grow deeper and stronger, allowing it to absorb more nutrients.

At the same time, by utilizing the collective power of the pasture grass, it helps the thorny privet, allowing the energy of the grassland to flow through its body like a trickle, nourishing its damaged branches, and enabling it to regain its vitality and strength in just a few months.

This is the most important skill that makes grass-tailed mice able to help a grassland grow more vigorously and healthily.

So, under its not-so-meticulous but very professional care, the prickly pear vine successfully revived and grew into the robust plant it is today.

The grass-tailed mouse scurried back to its burrow, tucking its body inside while leaving its yellowish-green tail sticking out. Although it wasn't really frightened, it still needed some treats to calm its nerves.

I ate a few pine nuts that my friend the rock rat gave me, some tender shoots of spiny sand sedge, and some wild berries that can be found everywhere. Burp~ I'm stuffed.

Seeing Josh slowly walking over behind the grass-tailed rat, the spiny slug shook its body at Josh and smacked the grass-tailed rat's fat bottom. The little guy was used to the spiny slug's presence and ignored its warning.

Seeing this, the thorny pine stopped caring. Anyway, it had been reminded, and Josh would deal with it later, but it couldn't do anything about it. It just sunbathed.

Josh has lived up to his reputation as a grass-tailed rat; he has managed these pastures very well, and the crops are growing well, which is more than enough to supply the herbivorous magical beasts currently on the farm.

Although Josh did see some instances of using public office for private gain, for example, he noticed that it had planted small wild strawberries around the mouse nest, taking up a large area of ​​grass.

These small wild fruits that creep along the ground don't have a high yield, but the ones in front of me, yellow and red, cover the ground, while the surrounding pasture grasses are all withered and droopy, as if they haven't been watered for days, and some are withered and yellow.

It's hard not to wonder what this little guy has been up to.

However, it's normal for kids to like to eat it. Josh likes to eat it too. Looking at the grass-tailed mouse's chubby butt facing her, Josh didn't call it. It's fine as it is.

Hehehe, Josh quietly picked the wild strawberries that were scattered all over the ground. The thorny sedge, wanting to warn the little fat mouse, flicked it with a branch again, but the mouse got impatient and burrowed deeper into its nest.

Alright, in that case, Josh won't stand on ceremony. Delicious wild berries, here I come!
Josh lifted the hem of his shirt, picked a full bag of wild berries, and happily bid farewell to the wild berries.

"I'm leaving now, thank you both for your gifts." As she spoke, she lifted the corner of her clothes to show it what a bountiful harvest looked like.

Once Josh was indeed far away, the thorny sedge mercilessly wrapped its branches around the grass-tailed mouse's waist and forcefully pulled it out of its nest.

"Squeak, squeak!" What are you doing? What are you doing? Can't you see I'm eating something delicious?
As he spoke, he suddenly realized that something seemed off about his surroundings.

"Squeak!" My prickly berries!
The little mouse's heartbreaking cries reached Josh, who was on his way, and it was truly a sad sight!

But she wasn't sad, because she was a eater.

Back at the farmhouse, Josh made a sweet and sour raspberry jam with fresh raspberries.

The prepared jam was first put into the freezer to chill, and Josh began to make the cake itself.

Cut off a small piece of the last bit of yak butter from the freezer, let it soften for a while, add granulated sugar, and then call over the pink-feathered pelican that was about to catch fish to help keep it occupied.

After whipping until fluffy, add the egg yolks in batches, whipping again, then add the fine flour and yak milk, stirring until it becomes a batter. Josh then finds her special pan for making pancakes.

Layer upon layer of pancake dough, then cook over low heat.

Meanwhile, don't forget to make a fresh cream, add the freshly made berry jam, and make pink cream.

After waiting for the last bit of batter to be cooked into crepes, Josh started by layering crepes, cream, and a spoonful of berry jam, and then using the remaining berry cream to spread the entire mille-feuille cake evenly, turning it into a round pink cake that exudes a rich berry aroma.

But a plain pink cake is a bit monotonous, so Josh picked two mint leaves and added some candied bitter candy. Ta-da! The pink cake is freshly baked.

But this is not its best time to enjoy it.

In this hot weather, even the most delicious food won't taste its best without spending some time in the freezer.

Just as Josh put the pink cake in the freezer, his keen ears picked up the sound of soft footsteps—it was a grass-tailed mouse.

Josh knew without even thinking that it had come to complain to the Skyrock Rat.

Haha, don't be fooled by the fact that the grass-tailed rat considers itself the boss of the rock rats. In any situation on the farm, it has to involve the rock rats to dare to be arrogant.

Just wait, in less than three minutes, he will definitely appear in front of her with the Sky Rock Rat.

Three, two, one!

"Squeak! Josh, why are you bullying the grass-tailed mouse!"
The silly rock rat crawled out of the window with a righteous look on its face, ready to uphold justice for it.

"Squeak squeak squeak!" Kongkong, smell it, it's the scent of my wild berries!

They could only smell the fragrance, but couldn't see the fruit. It was all gone. The grass-tailed mouse sniffed and was about to cry.

"Squeak! Skyrock Rat, you better stand up for me!"
