Pampered Beast: Frail Beauty with Many Children Brings Blessings

Chapter 43 My Life Is Yours

Xu Chi's identity as a deer cannot be hidden. If he reveals his wings again one day, his identity as a horned deer, which he has painstakingly concealed for so long, will be exposed.

The appearance of a single antlered deer is bound to cause a scramble among many tribes!

Si Shuo chuckled and raised an eyebrow. "Don't be afraid, because I'm even more extraordinary than you."

Who has a baby with nine lives? Isn't that even more insane than a deer having an extra life?

However, this extraordinary power, like that of ancient kings, diminishes over time. Eventually, by the ninth generation of her descendants, she had faded into obscurity.

Otherwise, she would have thrown the Beast World into chaos.

Xu Chi leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Si Shuo, you don't need to defy the heavens. My life is yours!"

Si Shuo was both amused and exasperated. She remembered that the child thought she could eat him, and was always prepared to devour her.

The more clueless and ignorant he seemed, the more she wanted to tease him, oh...

Many orcs come to Nanye City this season, and since it's not too late, there are quite a few types of accommodations to choose from.

The city of Nanye is built on a high cliff, with the turbulent sea below. The damp sea breeze with a faint fishy smell, the roar of waves crashing against the rocks, and the seabirds and beastmen circling and calling to each other are the main themes of this place.

Some houses are built on cliff faces, and those living there are flying beasts and their families.

Some of the houses are stone houses built by stone-type mutant beastmen, and they radiate outwards in neat concentric circles from the altar plaza.

Some houses are wooden cabins or treehouses built by the orcs themselves after paying a certain amount of crystals. Of course, there are also orcs who cannot afford to rent houses and build shacks on the outskirts.

Ji Liang was quite familiar with Nanye City. After introducing it to Si Shuo, he said, "Let's choose the stone houses in the middle area. They are close to the altar square and several markets, and they are not noisy. Moreover, the stone houses are large and have small courtyards, so they are quite comfortable to live in."

Si Shuo was easy to talk to, and since she agreed, Zhi Le and Xu Chi naturally wouldn't object.

Ji Liang then rented a small courtyard from the steward in charge of buying, selling and renting houses, and temporarily paid a month's rent: one fifth-tier crystal.

Si Shuo didn't have much of a concept of crystals, since the crystals in the three beast pouches the males gave her were all of the sixth rank or higher.

Knowing they would come to rent a house first, the orc leaders who had come with them earlier sent people to wait for them.

The flesh, bones, and crystals (crystal cores, two names) on the Great-Tailed Gray Wolf Beast were of average quality, nothing special. The 560 crystals, ranging from level one to level five, were collected in the animal skin bag and held by Si Shuo.

He left some animal hides to lay out in the newly rented stone house, picked out some of the tenderest meat, and sold the rest to the official purchasing point in exchange for five sixth-tier crystals.

Si Shuo then realized just how precious sixth-order crystals were.

After finishing all that, Si Shuo sat on the snow leopard, Ji Liang transformed into a black snake, and Xu Chi remained in human form. The group then headed to their new home with their belongings.

The streets of Nanye City are wide and the houses are tall. Many orcs like to run in their animal forms, yet it still doesn't feel crowded.

Si Shuo found everything fascinating, a far cry from the drowsy state he had been in during his recent journey.

As soon as they arrived at their new house, the neighbors gathered around to greet them.

Ji Liang stood guard over Si Shuo and spoke to him, subtly gathering information about him.

Meanwhile, Zhile and Xuchi cleaned and decorated the stone house.

Both females on either side were of average fertility. One, named Shanman, was a long-eared pink rabbit female, carrying a basket of pink and white baby rabbits for Si Shuo to play with; the other, named Hezhu, was a Vermilion Bird female, accompanied by three black wolf cubs. Si Shuo had absolutely no resistance to the fluffy little creatures; her eyes sparkled, wishing these cubs were her own. She couldn't help but imagine her own little ones: a snow leopard cub, a snake cub, a winged deer cub…

Si Shuo took out some warm corn and shared it with them.

The corn was sweet and delicious, and everyone ate it happily, agreeing to go to the market together tomorrow.

Orcs are simple-minded, have no vested interests, and get along well, so they can play together.

Moreover, each female is pampered by many beastmen, and most of them are simple, cheerful and kind-hearted. Females like Chu Man, Yu Jiao or Ma Hui, who cannot stand seeing others do better than themselves, are exceptions.

After seeing his neighbor off, Si Shuo finally had time to look around the house he would be living in for the next period of time.

Upon entering, there is a courtyard of about a hundred square meters, with the ground made of smooth, cut stones. Facing the door are five stone houses, each about thirty square meters, large enough to house most of the orcs in their beast forms.

One stone hut serves as the kitchen and bathroom, another as the dining room and living room, and the remaining three are temporarily one for each male. The rooms are simply furnished with a stone bed and a set of stone table and chairs.

Zhile and Xuchi took out their daily necessities from their respective spaces, and soon the stone house began to feel more like a place to live.

"Little kitty, what are we having for dinner tonight?" Zhile asked Si Shuo with a smile.

Si Shuo glanced at Xu Chi, who snapped his fingers, casting a protective shield over his courtyard.

"I want braised pork rice!" She wanted rice; she hadn't eaten rice or noodles since leaving the Rooney tribe.

As she spoke, she took out a bag of rice, and then bought carrots, mushrooms, corn kernels, potatoes, pork belly and sauces from the supermarket, and handed them over along with a large earthenware pot.

Zhile lit a campfire, scooped rice into a clay pot, rinsed it twice, and then added water up to about a finger's width above the rice.

Under Si Shuo's command, Xu Chi prepared the side dishes, placed them on top of the rice, and covered the rice to simmer.

The males had a larger appetite; in addition to braised pork rice, they also roasted a gray wolf and a curly-horned sheep.

However, Si Shuo bought a baking pan and asked Xu Chi to slice some meat for him to bake in the pan.

She rested her chin on her hand, gazing at her three virtuous and handsome men one by one, feeling utterly happy. The previous worries had vanished, and the joy of the family reunion still spread through her heart.

Braised pork rice, when mixed with different sauces, offers a variety of flavors, ensuring that all men can find a taste they like, paired with grilled meat and corn porridge.

Eating is no longer just about filling your stomach, but has become an enjoyment and a ritual of life!

After tidying up, Si Shuo took out a brown paper notebook, pencils, and erasers, giving each male a set, while she took out a blackboard, chalk, and eraser, put on her frameless glasses, and solemnly taught them pinyin.

"Our Beast World continent has a written language, but it's so winding and twisted that it makes people dizzy. Let's learn a simple one, a writing method based on pronunciation, which is pinyin..."

Pinyin is divided into initials and finals, and finals are further divided into... Today we will learn five simple finals... When pronouncing simple finals, the lip shape remains unchanged...

The three males were completely bewildered. But that's okay, they could just memorize it!

After the lesson was finished, Si Shuo assigned them homework: four lines each for each simple vowel with its tone.

Watching them hunched over their desks writing, she got to experience being a teacher for a while, and it was really exciting.
