Chapter 11 Not bad, there is progress

 It is better to fence off the vegetable field. In ancient times, fences were used to enclose yards to demarcate territory. Si Yan thinks the same applies here.

  Fresh air, fresh food, simple environment, and land that can be expanded at will.

  Such days are too good to be true.

  She folded her arms and looked around her palm-sized territory.

  The cave needs a yard, and the vegetable field must also be fenced.

  Thinking about it this way, she still has a lot to do.

  After dinner, Si Yan used the processed hay to weave it. The two cubs were attracted by the delicate handicraft in her hands. They looked at her curiously, their round eyes were watery and cute.

  "Hey, what are you doing?" Xi Qing asked.

  Si Yan replied lazily: "I don't call him Hey, I call him Mom."

  Xi Qing curled her lips: "Tsk. What are you doing?"

  "I don't call him Tsk."

  Xi Qing was too lazy to pay attention to her.

  Beiji asked her curiously, "Mom, what are you doing? It looks so amazing! Is this the soft thing on the bed?"

  Si Yan freed one hand, touched Beiji's head with a smile and said, "Mom is weaving straw curtains."

  Beiji looked at her intently with his watery eyes, "Mom, what are straw curtains for?"

  Si Yan smiled and said, "You will know in a while."

  "What's so great about it." Xiqing glanced at Si Yan, looked at the straw mat on the bed, and then looked at Beiji again.

  His face suddenly became worse again.

  Did the female not want them to sleep on the bed, so she laid a mat on the ground for them?

  The beautiful dream of sleeping with the female mother was like a flash in the pan. Sure enough, snake beastmen were not born to be loved by the female mother. The warmth in the dream was just a dream.

  Xiqing's face was tense, his lips were pursed into a line, and he turned his face away.

  He was angry, what was he angry about?

  Obviously, having a thin mat on the ground was much better than sleeping on the ground before.

  He should be content.

  The two cubs didn't say anything, just thinking quietly. After a while, after Si Yan finished weaving the straw mat, she stood up and patted her waist.

  I'm so tired.

  Si Yan smiled and said, "You guys help me."

  Bei Ji stood up and pulled Xi Qing, and Xi Qing stood up reluctantly.

  Si Yan took out a torch and handed it to Xi Qing. Xi Qing's face became very ugly in an instant. He quickly stepped back and stuck to the wall of the cave. Si Yan was frightened by Xi Qing's reaction, and Bei Ji immediately took the torch. "Mom, what are you doing?"

  Si Yan was confused by the reactions of the two cubs: "I need some light, just hold the torch for me."

  After Bei Ji realized that Si Yan was unintentional, he nodded and said, "Mom, I'll hold it."

  Si Yan nodded thoughtfully.

  Si Yan took the straw curtain to the entrance of the cave. Two small holes had been dug on the top of the cave. Si Yan went from the side to the top of the cave, nailed two animal teeth into them, tied the straw curtain with straw ropes, and hung it up.

  Xi Qing was a little afraid of fire, so he hid far away, but after seeing the straw curtain hung up, he and Bei Ji exchanged glances again.

  The mat made by the bad female did not seem to be a mat for them to sleep on. Did the bad female make something to cover the cave?

  Si Yan was very satisfied with the straw curtain. She explained to the two cubs: "When we need it in the future, we will put down the straw curtain. When we need ventilation, we will weave the straw curtain like this. Do you understand?"

  Bei Ji nodded quickly and excitedly. "Mom, you are so smart."

  "Why didn't you do this before?" Xi Qing asked suddenly.

  After Xi Qing asked this, the air seemed to be a little colder.

  In the past, their mother behaved a little crazy, was afraid of snakes, and was afraid of snakes. She would beat or scold them.

  She was black, bad, ugly, and crazy, but the cubs were still very attached to her.

  Until... she hurt Xiqing. Until... she sold her cubs.

  The hearts of the four cubs were completely cold. They gritted their teeth and tore out their precious mother from the bottom of their hearts.

  From then on, this woman was just a bad female. That's all.

  Beiji was sensitive to the wrong atmosphere, and he immediately said: "Xiqing, what are you talking about?"

  Isn't such a warm and soft environment what they dream of? What if the gentle mother disappears again? What if the crazy mother comes back again? !

  Si Yan slowly put down the straw curtain. The atmosphere in the cave was tense, and Si Yan took a deep breath.

  "Beiji, Xiqing, go to bed."

  She couldn't tell them that your mother is dead, and I am not your real mother now.

  She couldn't say it. So some things can only be done.

  Although they didn't spend a long time together, she accepted and liked these two cubs from the bottom of her heart.

  She would try to heal the injuries that the cubs had suffered.

  Beiji cooperated very well and got into the bed with great joy.

  Xiqing stood there without moving.

  He refused to go to bed yesterday. Although the female carried him to bed in the middle of the night, he was still in an awkward situation.

  Si Yan asked, "Xiqing, are you going to bed?"

  This cub is different from Beiji. He seems to hate her more. Si Yan is not a person who would put her face in a cold butt. She is not sure whether this cub would be willing to go to bed if she hadn't secretly carried him to bed. Xiqing

  said coldly, "I won't sleep on the bed!" Xiqing

  looked at Si Yan, and Si Yan looked at Xiqing. The two of them, one big and one small, looked at each other for a while. Xiqing pursed his lips and looked very stubborn.

  Si Yan said, "If you don't want to sleep, then don't sleep. Just sleep on the floor!"

  Xiqing huddled in the corner of the floor and slept angrily.

  He actually remembered how soft and comfortable it was when he slept on the bed last night.

  There was a little regret in his heart.

  He gritted his teeth.

  In the middle of the night, Si Yan got out of bed and put Xi Qing on the bed. The sleeping cub was still very cute.

  Si Yan touched the awkward cub's face.

  Really, what a bad habit, he had to sleep on the floor.

  The next morning, the weather was fine.

  When Si Yan woke up, she was a little surprised that the two cubs were waiting for her to wake up in the cave.

  "Not bad, there is progress." Si Yan lazily touched the heads of the two cubs.

  Xi Qing knocked Si Yan's hand away, and Bei Ji accepted Si Yan's pat on the head with a smile.

  Looking at the two cute cubs, Si Yan was very pleased.

  After washing up, she cooked sweet potato porridge for the cubs. After breakfast, she used snake scales to cut wood into several simple shovels. The two cubs each had a shovel, and followed Si Yan to cultivate the land near the cave.

  The two cubs worked very hard, the kind of hard work that Si Yan had never seen in the end of the world. It was as if they felt from the bottom of their hearts that working was a very sacred and glorious thing.

  With the help of the cubs, Si Yan was also much more relaxed. The land was cultivated very quickly. Halfway through the cultivation, Si Yan washed her hands and came back to cook. Yesterday's pumpkin had not been eaten yet, and it was just steamed and cooked for the cubs.

  The pumpkin was ready, and the cubs washed their hands and came to eat the pumpkin. After eating, Si Yan took the two children to plant potatoes and sweet potatoes, and also scattered some pumpkin seeds that she had injected with wood energy in advance.

  After doing all this, she picked the ripe pumpkin in the field and prepared new anthelmintic powder in the same way as yesterday.

  The powder was placed in a glass bottle in her space, and soon the whole bottle was filled. After

  making the medicine, Xiqing, Beiji and Si Yan ate it one after another. Not long after, they had many worms again. But it was much better than the first day.

  Si Yan said with certainty: "We should be able to recover after two more days of eating!" Beiji

  's little face was excited. Knowing that he would not die, he hummed heavily.

  Then he suddenly stepped forward and said: "Mom, can you give me some more medicine?"

  "What do you want the medicine for?" As soon as she finished speaking, Si Yan suddenly realized what the two children wanted to do.

  On the second day after crossing over, the two children took away the potatoes and stewed potatoes with meat. She just thought that they took them to eat.

  In fact, it might not be the case.

  They also have two brothers, Dongchi and Nanmo.

  After the original Si Yan sold Dong Chi and Nan Mo, the two cubs had been living a hard life. They barely survived only because of Xi Qing and Bei Ji's help from time to time.

  Bei Ji's face flushed: "Mom... I... I am..."

  Si Yan immediately said: "Wait a minute, I'll find a leaf to wrap it up."

  She found a few leaves, washed them, and then wrapped them up. She wrapped four packets.

  If Dong Chi and Nan Mo need to

  use it, it will be enough for two days. Si Yan instructed: "One packet a day, just take it with water."

  Bei Ji nodded: "I know. Mom, can I get some pumpkin?"

  "Wait a minute." Si Yan took another big leaf and wrapped a big piece of steamed pumpkin. "Take it together."

  Xi Qing and Bei Ji nodded, and the two cubs ran out.

  Si Yan looked at the direction where the cubs left and sighed softly.

  …

  Xiqing and Beiji passed by caves one after another. The caves were filled with unbearable sounds. When they passed by, they could see five or six males and one female fighting in an open cave. There were

  only 17 females in the Yanxiang tribe, and almost every female's cave had such a spectacular mating scene. Only Si Yan's cave was unique, without males.

  In this respect, Si Yan was better than other females.

  After Xiqing and Beiji bypassed several caves, they finally arrived at Xiong Rou's cave.

  Dong Chi and Nan Mo were sold to Xiong Rou by a bad female with two animal skins.

  Xiong Rou was a female with more than a dozen male orcs, but she had only given birth to one litter of cubs. These were the four bear cubs that stole Xiong Nai's red earth fruit a few days ago. Xiong Rou

  didn't like cold-blooded snake orcs, and even liked to bully and abuse them. She used two animal skins to exchange Dong Chi and Nan Mo for them just to bully them.

  Dong Chi and Nan Mo were sold to Xiong Rou as slaves. Xiong Rou barely gave them food and forced them to work every day. They didn't even have time to find food and were often hungry.

  Slaves had no rights and lived a life worse than death. If it weren't for Xi Qing and Bei Ji's constant support, they would have starved to death.

  Dong Chi and Nan Mo, who were sold, hated Si Yan, the bad female, even more than Xi Qing and Bei Ji.
