"Waaaaah...it hurts so much, it itches so much...my body feels so uncomfortable!"

The rescue operation was a success. After the warm broth was consumed, the two mice woke up. Not long after waking up, they began to hide in Baiguo's arms and cry, wiping away their tears. After all, frostbite, in addition to pain, is also accompanied by severe itching, which the two little ones naturally could not bear.

Wang Yan didn't have any good ideas either. Let the two little ones cry; it's better than them dying and being unable to cry anymore.

"Sir...we are so grateful to you for saving our family. We...we really don't know how to repay you. If you don't mind, we are willing to serve you like slaves."

Wang Yan pursed his lips. "Long-term meal ticket, huh?" But he did come today to take the whole family away, since they were short-handed at home.

Wang Yan didn't want to give Bai Guo's family too much time to rest, and said coldly:

"Then you'd better be prepared to be my slave for life. Hurry up, it's noon now, let's hurry back. I brought you here to take your whole family back to work for me."

Yingluo looked up at Wang Yan. Although she felt a little sorry for the family of frostbitten mice, she knew that Wang Yan was right. They couldn't delay any longer and could rest at home.

"Yes, Mrs. Ginkgo, come with us! We recently found a new home that's as warm as spring, and there's an endless supply of food. No one will have to worry about going hungry. Come with us!"

"Go with you...?"

Bai Guo repeated it blankly, and even the two little mice in his arms, who were wiping away tears, stopped crying.

"Going home with the master?"

"Mom...Mom...Grandpa is a very good person. He gave us food. He's a good man. Please say yes!"

With tears welling up in her eyes, Bai Guo dared not refuse in the slightest. She was afraid that Wang Yan would suddenly change his mind. She choked back sobs, pressed down on the heads of the two children, and the three of them knelt on the ground together.

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"

Wang Yan rubbed his temples. To be honest, he was quite disgusted by this kind of thing, but he didn't say anything more, nor did he glance at it again. He simply waved his hand and said:

"Hurry up and pack, don't take too long."

Yingluo covered her mouth and chuckled. This guy... he was clearly in a hurry just now, but now he's acting like this, which is actually quite cute!

Following Wang Yan's instructions, since there wasn't much they could bring from home, the group quickly climbed out of the cave.

However, there is still a problem: apart from the one who is still nursing, all three of them have suffered frostbite to varying degrees. If they continue on their way normally, it will definitely affect their speed, so special arrangements need to be made.

So Wang Yan picked up the two baby mice, one in each hand. The two little ones were quite small, and when Wang Yan held them in his arms, it was like holding two big cabbages; they weren't that heavy.

Bai Guo, still able to move, carried the little mouse and was helped along by Yingluo.

Even so, their speed was severely delayed. The group walked for a full six hours, stopping frequently and needing to adjust their pace from time to time. Fortunately, they finally made it home before nightfall.

They led the family into the cave, and as soon as they entered, a warm current rushed towards them, followed by twinkling fireflies filtering through the dappled vines and falling on their faces. The whole family of mice couldn't help but widen their eyes in astonishment. This...this is Master's home? This must be heaven!

Seeing that Wang Yan and Yingluo had brought the person back, the little beast girls stopped what they were doing and went forward to greet them. Especially the little mouse girl, Zhizhi, was overjoyed to see her kind.

"Waaaah, it's a different mouse!"

Squeak circled the white fruit twice, then teased the sleeping little mouse, before finally fixing its gaze on the two little heads peeking out from inside Wang Yan's cotton coat.

The two mice were startled when they saw Squeak's appearance and quickly shrank back and hid, as if they were a little shy, whispering to each other inside the cotton coat.

Little Cake: "Sister, that sister outside looks strange. Is she a mouse too?"

Little Cookie: "Don't talk nonsense. It's very impolite to say that someone is weird. Let's... let's go say hello to that lady."

Wang Yan heard the team's voice chat clearly, and couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly. He raised his hand to rub Zhizhi's chestnut-red head and said to her:

"Behave yourself, don't scare them."

Four large ears slowly sprang out, and the two little mice timidly said in unison:

"Hello, sister..."

"So cute!!!"

Squeaky is most susceptible to two kinds of temptations: delicious food and cute things. When she sees two little mice huddled together, Squeaky's heart almost melts.

"Quick, quick, let your big sister give you a hug! She's a little mouse too!"

Wang Yan gently tugged at her big ear and said to her, "Alright, alright, calm down for a bit. This whole family is injured and has been traveling for half a day. Let's eat first."

Zhuohua unbuttoned her cotton coat, put the two rats down, smiled slightly at Baiguo, and then stepped forward to take Baiguo's hand: "Madam Baiguo, it's a great welcome to join our big family. From now on, we're all one family, and we can take care of each other."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Bai Guo knelt down and said very sincerely, "Thank you for taking me in, Madam. I would never dare to become a member of Master's family. My family has no right to do so. I only ask to serve as a servant for Madam to repay Master's kindness in taking me in."

Zhuohua slightly raised her eyes and met Wang Yan's gaze. Wang Yan simply shrugged, indicating that it was not his request, but Bai Guo felt bad and insisted on lowering her status.

Oh wait, he did seem to have said something about making their whole family his slaves...

Forget it, do whatever you want. As long as they can work, that's fine. Wang Yan couldn't care less about these issues of status and hierarchy. If they were obedient and worked, they would be fed; if they caused trouble or were lazy, they would be kicked out. That was Wang Yan's thinking.

Zhuohua didn't say anything more. She took the group to have dinner first. To celebrate the arrival of a new member to the family, Huayue specially made a big pot of potato soup with smoked beast meat, and added MSG and salt for seasoning. It was nothing to the little beast girls, but for the new family, it was a rare delicacy.

The frostbite needed to be treated quickly, so after dinner, Wang Yan found a place to settle Bai Guo's family. There wasn't enough room for more people in the house, so they slept in a secluded corner in the open air. In this way, Bai Guo's family joined their household, marking the first increase in population since Wang Yan's arrival.
