Chapter 182: I also care about face

Although I know my image when I first arrived at the tribe was certainly not good.

When your doubts just now vanished instantly for that reason, did you ever consider that I also care about face?

But her inner nagging was still swallowed by herself after a few deep breaths.

Now the most important thing is the cubs.

She took out her two small buckets, mixed the hot water from the stone pot with the cool water in the buckets, and tested the temperature.

The water temperature is a bit cooler, because the beastfolk here are used to bathing directly in the river water; if it's too hot they can't accept it.

The half-beast cub was placed in the small bucket; the little one showed no feline aversion to water, sitting obediently there.

Occasionally she used her chubby little paws to stir the lukewarm water, and the two ears that had been drooping a moment ago began to move happily.

Using a small bundle of dry grass, she washed the mud off the cubs' bodies, then wrapped them in the beast pelts they brought and placed them in the grass nest.

After being cleaned, the cubs turned into various cute little balls.

Each sat obediently in the grass nest, gnawing on somewhat withered fruit; they were incredibly obedient and adorable.

After bathing, the parents left; their grass nest was gone and needed rebuilding, otherwise they would have to sleep directly on the ground today.

Qing Hua also went out to help; feeling at a loss with these soft little meatballs, she could only call in Qingcao, who was helping outside, to assist.

Qingcao gathered many beast pelts and brought them over; after Wu Yue fed each the herbal broth, she covered the somewhat drowsy little ones with them.

The soft grass nest and warm beast pelts instantly healed the shadow the heavy rain had cast on the cubs' young minds.

Each one began to snore softly as they slept.

Only then did Wu Yue and Qingcao exhale, wearily sitting in the nearby grass nest and leaning on each other to rest.

Wu Yue couldn't help but think of China.

The cubs here are so well-behaved, even taking their medicine is this cooperative and obedient.

Thinking again of the divine beasts of China, she involuntarily shivered.

The parents and teachers of China really have it tough; divine beasts are hard to handle.

"Yue." The sunlight at the doorway was suddenly blocked, and a tall, handsome beastfolk figure appeared inside.

Wu Yue looked at Yuan Lang, who was completely different from yesterday; yesterday he had been like a sun god beastman warrior, but now his whole body was covered in mud, looking rather sorry.

Such a big difference made Wu Yue involuntarily narrow her eyes: "What's the matter?"

Being looked at by her obvious schadenfreude gaze, Yuan Lang inwardly sighed helplessly; this appearance, as if fished out of mud, really damaged his handsomeness.

But...

"The chief and the shaman sent me to call you; there's something we need to discuss."

The beastfolk's voice was low, with a hint of hoarseness.

Wu Yue frowned, glanced at him, poured a bowl of herbal broth from the stone pot nearby and handed it to him: "Drink some water."

With such an obvious herbal scent, the little female said it was water; Yuan Lang couldn't help but glance at her: "Water?"

Wu Yue nodded: "Medicinal broth... is also water."

Yuan Lang chuckled, tilted his head back and drained it; the medicinal broth wasn't as bitter as imagined, but rather carried a faint, barely perceptible sweetness.

Setting the stone bowl aside, the beastfolk lowered his gaze to her: "Let's go."
