Chapter 187: It's really beautiful

~4 min read 677 words

Looking at the humans again starting to tidy their grass huts, Wu Yue felt a sudden admiration for them.

Lunch was eaten at the home of a human family that was building a house.

What's rare is that this is a human family that has meat, although that meat already had a bit of flavor.

But for the tribe members who rarely get meat, it was practically a high-standard treatment.

When the human female took out the meat, Wu Yue was still somewhat surprised, after all, since coming to this world she had truly never seen a chicken before.

The female was holding what appeared to be half a chicken, which was easy to see.

They used a finely sharpened stone knife to cut the chicken meat into small pieces of roughly equal size.

Wu Yue received a piece from the belly, and the female smiled shyly: "Yue, this piece has no bone, I'll give it to you to eat."

Looking at the meat chunk in front of her, still smaller than a child's fist, Wu Yue carefully took it, wrapped it in leaves, and tucked it into her bosom, earning a puzzled look from the female.

She winked at her, and Wu Yue chuckled: "It's rare to get meat; tonight when I go back I'll make a few vegetable dumplings to eat together."

Seeing her so cherish the food she had been given, the female laughed happily.

"This troublesome brat, how could you throw away the bone!"

Just moments ago, after turning away happy, the female's smiling face instantly clouded with anger upon seeing what happened.

Her own little brat actually threw a chicken bone onto the ground.

The female angrily walked over and smacked the little one's butt, scolding him for not knowing to cherish food.

The male beside her laughed as he picked up the bone from the ground, then, under the little one's somewhat resentful gaze, he crunched it up with a crack-crack and swallowed it down, wearing a blissful expression: "These bones are edible too; from now on you mustn't throw them away, got it?"

The little one looked admiringly at his father's... teeth.

Just now he threw the bone away because he couldn't bite it; if he also had his father's teeth, wouldn't he be able to eat such tasty food?

Being looked at with such admiring eyes by his own child, the male instantly felt his spirit multiplied a hundredfold, and all the day's fatigue vanished.

He laughed heartily and ruffled the little one's head: "When you grow a bit bigger you'll be able to eat it."

After saying that, he still smacked his lips with enjoyment: "Bones are far tastier than meat."

Seeing this scene, Wu Yue felt a pang of sorrow, and suddenly felt that the piece of somewhat-flavored chicken meat in her bosom had become very heavy.

Not sure if it was because they ate chicken, but in the afternoon the males worked with unusual vigor.

Wu Yue looked and saw that only the roof remained uncovered; the materials were all ready, and the rest could be left to the beastfolk.

Strolling over, she came to where the female was preparing food.

What surprised Wu Yue was that the female actually took out another half chicken.

"For tonight's meal, preparing some Ye Cai Zi will be enough; save this meat for the little ones to eat."

Wu Yue's voice sounded from behind; the female turned to look at her, a little embarrassed as she scratched her head: "This is the A Mu sent by my mate today; he said it's for the people building the house to eat."

"My mate's A Fu and A Mu are both half-beast warriors."

Wuyue: "..."

Those with connections are extraordinary; she's realized these past few days that as long as she has beastfolk or half-beast relatives behind her, when building houses she can always get a taste of meat.

So the males who previously thought being selected to build houses delayed their gathering and hunting are now all feeling extremely pleased.
