Transmigrating to the Beastman Continent to Live a Happy Life - Chapter 166
The group moved to Wu Xiaoyin and Lei Lu’s home for a hearty meal, including roasted lamb legs, sweet and sour pork, stewed taro with meat, milk fish soup, pickled cabbage, roasted sweet potatoes, and tiny wontons. The little ones devoured the tiny wontons, which were small enough to swallow in one bite and served in fish soup. They buried their heads in their bowls. The beastmen found the wontons just average. They were delicious but too small to fill their teeth. The wontons were light on meat, so after tasting it, they tried other meat dishes.
The females particularly loved the sweet and sour pork and pickled cabbage, especially Bin who was pregnant. However, Wu Xiaoyin hadn’t noticed any change in Bin’s tastes until today when Bin seemed particularly focused on those two dishes and ignored everything else. Did Bin’s preferences really change so quickly upon discovering his pregnancy? After all, there hadn’t been any sweet and sour dishes yesterday…
Everyone enjoyed their food, watching the little cubs play around and fight. Lunch seamlessly transitioned into dinner in Wu Xiaoyin’s house, but this time Wu Xiaoyin didn’t cook. The beastmen all pitched in to show their cooking skills. It was like a friendly competition to see who could best make their females plump and white. Their enthusiasm for this activity rivaled that of their hunting contests.
In the end, Lei Lu emerged victorious. Even with his usual cold expression, a hint of a smile could be seen. The one feeling the most frustrated was Kos. He knew that his skills weren’t the best, but he couldn’t stand his Xiao Kai’s sabotage. Xiao Kai hadn’t tasted a single bite of his dish and said righteously, “I usually eat what you make, so today let me try something different!”
Kos took a deep breath and replied, “You should at least give my dish a taste!”
Xiao Kai rolled his eyes at Kos and said, “I need to save room for the delicious food made by Lei Lu and the others. If I eat too much now, I won’t get to enjoy the delicious food made by Xiao Xiao and Lei Lu for the cold season!”
Kos picked up the clumsy Pu Pu, who was struggling to walk properly, and tossed him over his shoulder as he headed home, ignoring Xiao Kai’s protests behind him. In the end, Xiao Kai hurried after him and offered a half-hearted apology. Then the family of three happily returned home.
Wu Xiaoyin listened to the banter between Kos and Xiao Kai. He felt amused by Xiao Kai’s refusal to give face. Wu Xiaoyin only tasted Kos’s vegetable meat soup out of courtesy. The soup was nearly all meat. It was all white meat. It was lacking any appealing presentation and had a slight fishy taste. In the end, the meat that Wu Xiaoyin tasted went into Lei Lu’s stomach.
After a fun-filled day, the three little ones were sleepy and were sent off to wash up and go to bed by Lei Lu. Wu Xiaoyin and Lei Lu’s lively night life began.
But to be honest, Lei Lu didn’t feel envious or desire for another cub upon hearing that Bin and Feng were having another baby. Between his three mischievous cubs and the traumatic experience of Xiao Xiao’s last birth, along with Xiao Kai’s caesarean section, Lei Lu wondered if he would have had the courage to go through it all again if Xiao Kai had been replaced by Xiao Xiao. He didn’t know the answer to this question…
Sleeping soundly until dawn, the third day of exchange event began. Wu Xiaoyin stood at the entrance of his temporary stone house and watched the long line of people. He thought to himself that his orange wine indeed good. The saying “good wine doesn’t fear the alley being deep” certainly applied here! He never thought that the quality of the giant red oranges on the Beastman Continent was good. It was Lei Lu’s handiwork that played a big role!
Held by Lei Lu, Wu Xiaoyin saw Zhan and Lan Shi at the front of the line, followed by Xiao Kai, Kos, and Pu Pu who was being carried by Kos. Then Wu Xiaoyin spotted Li and Ah Lu whom he hadn’t seen in a long time. He and Lei Lu squeezed into the house and invited them in. They greeted Li and Ah Lu happily, “Li, Ah Lu, it’s great to see you. Where have you been for the past few days?”
Ah Lu grinned and replied, “We’ve been bargaining with the tribe chief for the past two days, which is why we didn’t come by.”
Wu Xiaoyin and Xiao Kai both asked, “What were you bargaining for?”
Ah Lu looked around the stone house and said, “We’re negotiating with the tribe chief about the construction methods for stone houses. Ever since we traded for the bed and door-making techniques with the Giant Tiger Tribe, we’ve seen the benefits. We want to build stone houses on the land of the Giant Wolf Tribe, so we came to discuss it with the Giant Tiger Tribe chief this year.”
Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyin remembered that the tribe chief had mentioned it to him before. He hadn’t thought much of it since the tribe chief would surely protect their interests. However, thinking about his own storage rooms and cellars full of food, he wondered what would happen if the negotiation succeeded. Where would he store the animal skins, herbs, and meat from the Giant Wolf Tribe? What would he do then?
