Chapter 174: No wonder, they've all grown worms

Lushui Ama wiped the water off her hands and stood up: "Today we don't need to go out gathering; it's a good time to rest. Yue, is there anything you need Ama's help with?"

Wu Yue smiled and nodded: "It's not me, it's Qingcao."

Looking at Qingcao, who was listless from being refused a bath: "Actually, Qingcao, not bathing often like this is not good—it doesn't look good, and it also smells bad."

Moreover, not bathing for a long time is also bad—our bodies can grow little bugs, and we might even get a more serious illness.

Lushui Ama's face turned slightly pale: "This... not bathing can cause bugs on the body?"

This question obviously didn't need Wu Yue to answer; Qingcao, standing nearby, dug around in their own head a few times and then pulled out a bug the size of a little finger.

"These bugs have been in my hair for a long time; their bites are making me miserable."

This is literally a case of speaking from experience—Lushui Ama immediately turned pale with fright: "Oh my, this... this big, covering your whole head, why didn't you say anything, you little brat?"

Seeing her so anxious, Wu Yue gently patted her arm: "Don't worry, you are a Beastman Warrior; later you'll make a big bathtub for Qingcao, then bring it back to the cave to wash."

If you're worried the water will be too cold, you can also leave it outside to warm up in the sun.

With today's weather, the water will be warm by midday without needing to wait.

Having personally seen their child with bugs on their head, Lushui Ama no longer had any thought of washing animal hides; she immediately grabbed the two of them and headed toward a patch of forest.

She went straight to find a big tree large enough to hold three Qingcaos, then waved her claws and set to work.

Amid the flying dust, Wu Yue seemed to see her own hairline blown up a bit too high.

"Strip off the outer bark."

"We need to hollow out the inside... Lushui Ama, this is too deep—Qingcao would go in and have no head left."

"Right, right, hollow out a small hole at the bottom."

The Beastman Warrior's claws were no joke—in just a short time, a huge wooden tub took shape under Lushui Ama's claws.

Hearing the two kids' praise, Lushui Ama felt a bit smug and lifted her chin: "It's nothing."

Having said that, she stepped forward, hoisted the huge wooden tub onto her shoulder, and walked toward her own cave.

Several males in the cave were sharpening stone tools; seeing their partner return carrying a large wooden tub, they hurried forward to take it.

"Water, what are you making such a big wooden tub for?"

Lushui glanced at the speaking male: "It's not anyone else's—your kid said they wanted to take a bath."

You also know her body—only a wooden tub will let her bathe in the cave.

Qingcao looked toward their father: "My head is all covered in bugs."

Having said that, they also brought out the strange-looking bug from behind them: "Look."

The three males all sucked in a breath of cold air: "Just how dirty must it have gotten?!"

Qingcao: "..."

So, three fathers, could you consider my feelings when you speak?

Qingcao's bath this time was far more grandiose than Yue's.

Bucket after bucket of murky water was carried out, and clean water was carried back in.

Until the fifth round trip, the several males had no strength left, and only then did she feel she had come back to life.

"Yue, are you there?"

From outside the cave came Huashu Ama's voice; Wu Yue wondered what was happening at this time.

Then, after greeting Qingcao and them, she went out.
