Chapter 164 Back home
Chapter 164 Back home
People say the journey home is always long, but Ruan Tang had dozens of her own children laughing and playing all the way, so she didn't feel she had walked very far before she got home.
"Woo~ My lovely home, I miss you so much!" Chi Shiwu swam into the house quickly, swinging his snake tail. At this moment, he just wanted to go back to his grass nest and lie on his back.
"I'm going to take a shower. I have to wash off the dirt that has accumulated on my body for the past few days before I can go into the house." Mo Xiaowu shook his body and felt that the dirt made his body several pounds heavier, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"I'll go with you, Xiaowu."
"I'll go as well."
"And I."
Yitian saw that her sisters all said they wanted to take a bath first. As the eldest female cub, she had to take her sisters with her. She called her sisters and said, "Come on, let's go take a bath together. Although mother has raised us to be brave and strong like boys, we must not be as unhygienic and untidy as them."
"Well, after we transform into human form, we will be cute and pretty girls. We need to wear nice clothes and have nice hairstyles. Cleanliness is the basis! We can't be dirty all day long like those boys." Chi Xiaowu is usually very vain. Although she is still in animal form, she goes to the water to look at herself whenever she has the chance, imagining that she will grow up to be a beautiful girl like her mother!
"Who says that we male cubs are unhygienic and don't like to be clean? We are also very clean and smell very good, okay?" Mo Xiaoqi protested towards the backs of a dozen female cubs. He would never admit that he was dirty. In order to be closer to his third sister, he took a shower every day to smell nice.
A dozen or so female cubs turned around and looked at Mo Xiaoqi at the same time, saying in unison: "Look at your hair, it's all tangled, okay? You still like to be clean."
"That's right, Luo Chen is so special, his white hair has turned black!"
"Mo Xiaojiu is almost the same. He turned our noble black and white fur completely black!"
It is said that three girls make a drama. Ruan Tang's family has nine female snake cubs, three female panda cubs, and two female fox cubs, which adds up to fourteen girls. You can imagine what the scene would be like if the girls gathered together and attacked each other at the same time.
"Who says all of us male cubs are dirty? We also have some really clean ones, like our big brother and second brother! See for yourself."
Mo Xiaojiu has always been very puzzled by this. He spoke his mind honestly: "I'm puzzled too. Isn't it strange? They hunt like us every day, so why are their bodies still white?"
Yi Han said, "Big Brother and Second Brother would go to the river to bathe every day no matter how tired they were. Unlike you guys, when you come home from training, you just want to lie down and won't move unless you're told to eat. You're so lazy that you'll die."
"The fathers are clean too, don't lump everyone together." Boss Mo actually felt that he was still quite clean, at least you could still see that his fur was black and white.
"Why involve us in your little cubs' affairs? Get out of the way. Don't block the road. Your mother is waiting for hot water." Bai Lang and Qi Xuan each carried two large buckets of water and walked one after the other among a dozen female cubs.
Yitian leaned aside to leave as much space as possible for the two fathers carrying water to pass. After they passed by with the water, she urged her sisters, "Alright, alright, don't tell them anymore. Let's go take a shower quickly. Didn't you see how quick the fathers are? Hot water, hot water, prepare dinner, prepare dinner. If we delay any longer, it will be time for dinner!"
"Okay, let's go take a shower."
"Let's go too, brothers. Come on, we boys can't let the girls outdo us. Anyway, there's still some time before dinner, so let's go wash up first, and then go see our slave orcs and wild beasts. It's just in time for us to come back for dinner." Chi Shiwu rushed out of the house and swam to the front of the sisters.
"You are not allowed to compete with us for space!" Boss Chi chased after him and said to Chi Shiwu.
"I'm not competing with you. We found a better pool a few days ago. The water is warm and comfortable." Chi Ershijiu thought of the secret pool that he and his sixth brother Jin Heng had found a few days ago. The water there was warm and comfortable.
"Where? How come we don't know? Why didn't you tell us about it? You don't want to keep it all to yourself?" Chi Xiaoer rolled his eyes again and again, but he couldn't remember any such good place near his home.
"Oh, you're done. Mother said that eating alone is not allowed in our family!" Chi Xiaoliu deliberately shouted.
Chi Ershijiu wasn't frightened by his sixth sister's yelling. As he swam, he told them how they discovered that place a few days ago: "We're not hiding it on purpose. A few days ago, a big rabbit escaped from the fence. My sixth brother and I chased it, but it was so adept at burrowing into the woods that we were led unknowingly into the dense forest on the back mountain. The pool is in that dense forest. We rarely go into such deep woods, and there are so many thorns blocking the way. If that rabbit hadn't gotten in, I don't think we would have discovered that wonderful place even if we lived here for many more years."
"So that's how it is. Then take us with you. We are girls, and you are the mighty and domineering boys. Can you give us a chance today?" Chi Xiaoliu's expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
"Then we must give it to you. Besides, there is not just one pool of water there, there are several, and all of them are emitting white smoke. It feels like a fairyland, right, Sixth Brother? We will definitely give it to the girls, okay?" Chi Ershijiu had already agreed, but when he saw his sixth brother following him out of the corner of his eye, he immediately turned around to ask his sixth brother's opinion.
Jin Heng patted Little Twenty-Nine's snake head with his claws and taught his brother, "What did Father teach us every day? Female cubs are rare and precious. As male cubs, we must take good care of the female cubs."
He walked to the front of the group and said to the dozens of brothers and sisters who followed behind him, "Let's go and bathe in the dense forest. The water there is like puddles. It's not very deep, but it's very clear and especially warm. Now that the warm season has just arrived, it's the perfect time to go there and bathe."
"Great! Let's go and take a bath!" Chi Shiba caught up again.
"That should be called a hot spring!" Chi Shiwu said.
"Yes, yes, I've been thinking about it for a long time but can't remember what that water is called. Brother Fifteen is still the smartest!" Chi Ershijiu flattered him.
"That's right! Don't you see who I got the true teachings from..."
The laughter of children came from afar. Ruan Tang was lying on a recliner, harvesting crops from the black soil in the space while waiting for her husbands to help her prepare bath water.
