On a sunny morning, in a yard, Su Ce was sitting on a wooden chair, holding soft fabric in his hands and mending it with bone needles.
If it was a few years ago, Su Ce would never have imagined that one day he would personally sew small clothes for his children...as a "mother".
As he sewed, his gaze fell gently on the children.
A small and tender child stood in a wooden circle that could only accommodate him alone, holding the sides with both hands, standing there a little unsteadily, but quietly.
And outside the wooden circle where the little child was, three slightly bigger lion cubs were gently arching their heads against the wooden circle, until the child inside patted the edge of the wood with his small hands, and then jumped up. , quickly licked the child's face, then turned and ran.
It has been half a year since the senior gave birth.
No one thought that what came out of the snake egg was not a little snake—not a male, but a cute little female.
The cubs of the Su Ce family are very curious about the little female, and always like to hang around him. Later, considering the children, the two "heads of the family", Tan Tu and Arsen, decided to connect the houses of the two families... also It is to cut down all the trees in the middle and build some independent houses, which are continuous and become an independent yard. During this process, Yang Han and Su Ce also put forward many suggestions, referring to the construction method of courtyard houses on the earth, and enclosing this entire area.
Several people have thought about it. When the cubs grow up, they will have a partner, and there may be new members in the family in the future. Of course, the more houses the better.
Su Ce was not obvious on the surface, but he was really happy in his heart.
When their houses are connected, the two families can be said to be one family. When more family members appear, the atmosphere in the yard will become more noisy.
After thinking about it, Su Ce's gaze returned to the children.
The three cubs in his family are now two years old. They are very proficient in shape-changing abilities, but they are also mischievous. They often turn into children and run around at this time, and when they are chased, they suddenly turn into lion cubs and run away. It is really dumbfounding, but also reluctant to blame.
And the little female of Yang Han's family now has her own name - named "Wuya" by Arsen, which means "precious" in the orc language.
Indeed, the current little Wuya is really the most precious treasure to Su Ce and his family.
Being a female cub is really much more difficult than raising lion cubs.
For example, in the first two months, I couldn't even go out, because I was afraid that if I caught the wind, I would immediately fall ill or even die. And what little Wuya eats is not simply squeezed animal milk, but the milk must be boiled first, and then diluted to a certain extent before being fed slowly—and the food intake of little Wuya is really too small. The other vulnerable little females are exactly the same.
In order to be able to raise little Wuya well, Yang Han and Su Ce even specially visited several families in the tribe who had experience in raising female cubs, and carefully asked about the matters that need attention—this is Kamel who has no real experience in raising cubs Unable to provide help.
Little Wuya is also very competitive. Although it is indeed more troublesome than the three little lions in terms of feeding, she has a very docile personality and is not naughty at all. When Yang Han feeds, he will eat obediently, and he will not act coquettishly and always want to be hugged, and he will not roll around like the little lions who do not agree with each other, making people feel distressed and sympathetic.
Su Ce also likes little Wuya very much. In addition to his senior who loves little Wuya like a treasure, he will often change his ways to make some healthy and delicious things for little Wuya to taste. After Ya smiled very cutely, she kissed his little face, thoroughly enjoying the fun of raising a "daughter".
While he was thinking this way, the movements in his hands didn't stop.
Regardless of whether it is a young male or a young female, the skin of the cubs is undoubtedly very delicate, and the young female is the most delicate. In order to make them more comfortable, Su Ce obtained soft cloth made of silk and some linen cloth softer than animal skin but a little rougher than silk cloth from the females in the tribe who were best at raising red silkworms and handcrafted. … He sewed a lot of small clothes for the little lions out of linen, and silk cloth for little Wuya, all in the hope of making them more comfortable.
In fact, Yang Han has also worked hard in this area, but unfortunately, he is far from Su Ce's meticulousness and patience, so that he has been busy for a long time, and it is just a waste of cloth... Later, Su Ce had to let him do some cutting work — This didn't bother him too much.
Su Ce quickly made one, it was a small dress similar to a bellyband - it was for the three little lions, even if they suddenly changed into a beast shape, it would not fall off their bodies - anyway, it was tied on Yes!
Then he yelled, "Sky! Come here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Ce felt a flash of yellow light before his eyes, and three little lions appeared, squatting in front of him in a row, each with their heads tilted, how cute it must be , just how cute it is.
Su Ce sighed, grabbed two of them by the neck, lifted them up and put them aside, then said, "Fry, Rand, stop messing around."
Cute is cute, but these little guys are really not worry-free at all.
Because they look exactly the same, and the adults don't remember who crawled out of Su Ce's belly first, the three little lions all think that they should be the boss, and they fight for it all the year round, but they always divide each other. No outcome.
But the child is so old, there should always be a title, right? After arguing and fighting, in the end Su Ce waved his hand and arranged the order of the three cubs casually, and then dyed the cub's fur with the prepared grass juice—even if it was transformed into a human form, the cubs would all be different. One, two, or three strands of black hair made the difference.
Of course, the one with only one lock of black hair is Big Sky, and so on.
Therefore, even if the lion cubs had exactly the same appearance, temperament and actions, Su Ce could tell them apart at a glance.
So, the two cubs who were carried away lowered their heads in frustration, while the remaining one happily touched Su Ce's calf.
Thinking it was a little funny, Su Ce hugged Skye to his knees, and tied a bellyband around his belly. After Sky grinned, he turned into a chubby little doll, sitting on Su Ce's lap and shaking his little feet.
Su Ce patted Skye's head: "Do you like it?"
"I like it!" Skye rubbed Su Ce's palm, squinting his eyes and said, "Thank you, mother!"
The corner of Su Ce's mouth twitched.
It has been several years, and he still can't get used to the word "mother" on himself... Even if he knows what's going on in his heart and admits it, he still feels a little uncomfortable when he hears it.
Fry and Rand also started circling Su Ce, and the little Wuya over there seemed to be attracted, clapping his little hands and yelling "Ah", Skye heard it, and jumped off Su Ce, He stumbled to the outside of the wooden circle, grabbed Wuya's little hand, and followed with "ah"...
Su Ce looked at the two children amusedly, then stretched out his hand, and rubbed the heads of Fry and Rand's little lion vigorously.
At this moment, someone pushed the door open and came in, smiling, "Hey, Ah Ce, what are you doing, you're having fun!"
It was Yang Han who had just gone out to pick some vegetables, and he was holding a big dustpan in his hand, which contained many fresh green vegetable leaves. After he came in, Su Ce saw that there were two people behind him.
Arsen and Tantu came in with two wild beasts on their shoulders. After walking a few steps to the side, they flung the prey into the corner of the yard.
It happened to be Alson's turn to deal with the prey today, so Tan Tu quickly washed his hands, rushed over, kissed Su Ce's forehead, and then stared at him tightly.
Su Ce sighed and stood up. Tantu immediately sat down happily and hugged Su Ce into his arms. Fry and Rand looked up, jumped onto Tantu's shoulder, licked his cheek, and then turned into a chubby kid, jumped out to play with little Wuya and Skye went.
Yang Han waved to Su Ce, turned and went into the kitchen. Alson also finished handling a prey at this time, and carried the prepared meat into the kitchen.
This meal will be cooked by the improved Yang Han, assisted by Arsen. By tomorrow, it will be replaced by Su Ce and Tan Tu.
Su Ce felt a big fluffy golden head buried in his shoulder, and his heart was very warm.
Day by day, they are getting closer and closer, and the family members are getting closer...
In a few years, the children will grow up, and at that time, what they need to worry about may be other things.
But... Su Ce smiled slightly, he thought, they are as happy as they are.
