Transmigrating to the Beastman Continent to Live a Happy Life - Chapter 160
Understanding all too well that his height would forever be a source of pain, Wu Xiaoyin focused on the three little ones bouncing around, thinking that his height deficiency shouldn’t be passed on to his children. With plenty of time for the three little ones to grow, he could use various dairy products to promote their development.
Wu Xiaoyin started planning different dairy products in his mind. He felt that milk candies would be the easiest for the little ones to consume. Compared to drinking milk morning and night, sweet milk candies would surely be more appealing to them. So much so that he didn’t even notice when Lei Lu carried him home.
However, Wu Xiaoyin wasn’t concerned about that now. Watching the group of cubs behind him and Xiao Kai who was chatting happily with Bin, he thought that he had enough helping hands and taste testers. What was he waiting for? Let’s get to work!
He instructed Kos and Feng to return to the breeding grounds to fetch milk while he had Xiao Kai and Bin prepare the freshly picked giant red oranges, giant purple grapes, giant hawthorns, and giant green jujubes—four fruits Wu Xiaoyin’s particularly liked. Then he needed Lei Lu’s great strength to crush these fruits into juice and set it aside for later use.
He took the very sugary giant honey fruits and honey and placed them in a ceramic pot to simmer until thickened for syrup. Just then, Kos and Feng returned each carrying two buckets of milk. Wu Xiaoyin directed Lei Lu to pour one bucket of milk into the large ceramic pot with the simmering syrup, stirring it evenly until it turned a beautiful golden color.
He turned off the heat and let it cool. He poured the giant honey fruit-flavored milk onto a prepared wooden board on the side. Once it cooled and hardened completely, he used a stone knife to cut it into small and bite-sized pieces of giant honey fruit milk candy. He repeated this process with the giant red orange juice, giant honey fruit, honey, and milk to make giant red orange milk candies, giant purple grape milk candies, giant hawthorn milk candies, and giant green jujube milk candies.
Among these, the flavors of giant red orange, giant purple grape, and giant hawthorn were sweet and tart. They were perfect for the little ones and females, especially those who were pregnant. The green jujube-flavored milk candy was Wu Xiaoyin’s favorite. It was designed to be milder so that even Lei Lu could enjoy it. After all, beastmen generally didn’t prefer overly sweet fruits, particularly concentrated milk candies.
The house was filled with the aroma of milk mixed with fruit. As soon as Xiao Kai heard Wu Xiaoyin say it was time to eat, he eagerly grabbed his favorite giant honey fruit milk candy and popped it into his mouth. He chewed it with a loud crunching sound. As he did this, he kept talking, “Xiao Xiao, this milk candy is so delicious. It’s better than my favorite fruit. Of course, all fruits are delicious, but if I could, I’d trade a lifetime of fruit for milk candies.”
Wu Xiaoyin stuffed a green jujube milk candy into Lei Lu’s mouth and chewed one himself, saying somewhat indistinctly, “Is it really that amazing? These candies are tasty, but you need to eat them in moderation, or your teeth might suffer and rot!”
Wu Xiaoyin warned them. He knew well about the robust body of the beastmen in the Beastman Continent. The reason why he said this was because he wanted Xiao Kai to take his advice to heart and realize the importance of eating in just right amount. Especially for the cubs with more sensitive stomachs, they needed to be careful!
Wu Xiaoyin looked Xiao Kai and the five little ones tossing candy into their mouths without a care. Wu Xiaoyin realized that no matter how serious he made it sound, he wouldn’t get their attention. He couldn’t help but think angrily, go ahead and eat, the best candy will give you cavities, then you’ll understand the seriousness of it!
In the end, after a long time, nothing happened to his mischievous thoughts. Of course, by then Wu Xiaoyin had completely forgotten his childish ideas.
With everyone enthusiastically enjoying the treats, Wu Xiaoyin began to think about making more fruit candies, milk candies, honey candies, etc., to trade at the exchange day. But Lei Lu strongly rejected this idea. Although he would let Xiao Xiao handle most things, he didn’t want him to tire himself out for this, so the plan was shelved.
Still, with enough orange wine in the cellar and not really wanting to trade specific items at the exchange day, most people were looking forward to the exchange day for the excitement.
Finally, the exchange day arrived just as Wu Xiaoyin had hoped. The three little ones were almost one year old now. They had reached Wu Xiaoyin’s waist. He thought, I really raised them well! But he did not consider that most of the time it was Lei Lu who fed them, and he only cooked when he felt like it with Lei Lu’s permission.
Wu Xiaoyin watched as the tribe chief built rows of empty stone houses along the main road leading into the tribe. The fields on either side had already been harvested, leaving only an empty land. But now it was bustling with people, no longer the emptiness it once had.
In one of the innermost stone houses, Wu Xiaoyin was held by Lei Lu and counting fingers, feeling bored and drowsy…
