"A-Li, I really have to thank you very much today. If it weren't for your help, if anything happened to Baizi, I don't know what I would do with my old arms and legs."

Grandma Qiu said as she held the tiger cub in her arms with gratitude on her face.

A bright smile now bloomed on her weather-beaten face, as sweet as ripe fruit in autumn.

"Oh, you're so polite, Grandma. We are from the same tribe, so it's only natural for us to help each other. Besides, this little thing is nothing."

Wu Li quickly waved his hands, looking a little embarrassed.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the two said goodbye to each other.

Wu Li turned around and continued to immerse himself in the busy crowd, watching intently as others were making mortar and salt.

It can be seen that the orcs are now able to skillfully mix various materials together, stirring and kneading them constantly, and the whole scene is in full swing.

The sunlight shines on them, reflecting their hard-working figures, like a beautiful painting unfolding before our eyes.

"Are you free right now?"

Rui's low and magnetic voice suddenly sounded in Wuli's ears, like a breeze blowing across the calm lake, causing ripples.

At some point, he had quietly walked to Wu Li's side.

Wu Li, who was concentrating on thinking about something, was frightened by the sudden words and trembled all over, and his heart beat faster involuntarily.

She turned her head abruptly, staring at Rui with wide eyes, her face full of surprise, and stammered, "Um... um? Is... something wrong?"

Rui smiled slightly, and that smile was as bright and charming as a flower blooming in spring.

He nodded gently, then looked at Wu Li with an expectant gaze and said slowly, "I just heard from others that the sweet potatoes and corn we planted together are growing very well."

"Are you interested in going with me to take a look? Maybe we can get some surprises." As he said that, he extended his hand to Wuli and made an invitation gesture.

"Okay." Wu Li replied softly, but a hint of doubt arose in his heart.

She keenly noticed that the other party's attitude had changed significantly from when they first met.

When they first met, that person seemed quite reserved and cautious, but now he seemed like a different person, with confidence and composure in his words and actions.

The two walked side by side, at a moderate pace. No one spoke along the way, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

Soon, they arrived at the familiar planting area.

Looking around, Wu Li couldn't help but widen his eyes at the scene before him.

The originally sparse and lifeless corn stalks have now become lush and green, like a green ocean.

The breeze blew, and the corn leaves rustled, as if dancing happily.

Looking at the sweet potato field next to it, the leaves that were previously riddled with holes bitten by insects have now recovered and there is not a single insect hole to be seen.

The leaves are thick and shiny, sparkling in the sunlight, as if they have been carefully cared for.

"Wow, this crop is growing so well!" Wu Li couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Indeed, she had been busy dealing with various trivial matters recently and had not set foot on this plantation for a long time.

"Well, on weekdays, those beastmen with some physical disabilities often come over and help catch insects, weed, and apply fertilizer."

Rui looked at her surprised expression and couldn't help feeling happy.

However, he did not tell her that he was actually a regular here and came quite frequently.

This was because when she first arrived at the Tiger Tribe, the first thing she did was to cultivate this plantation.

Thinking back, the patriarch had promised her that as long as she could heal the injuries of Lin Zi and others and properly resolve the issues related to the planting land, she would be allowed to choose a more ideal location to build her own house.

Selfishly speaking, Rui naturally didn't want her to move to a place too far away from him; but at the same time, he sincerely hoped that she could live in a place with better conditions.

Of course, Wu Li was completely confused about this series of events.

At this moment, Wu Li stood in front of the lush and vibrant cornfield and sweet potato field, with anticipation glittering in his eyes.

The breeze blows gently, and the green leaves rustle, as if whispering the joy of the harvest.

"I think it won't be long before we can start harvesting!"

Wu Li spoke excitedly, gesturing with his hands unconsciously, as if he had already seen baskets full of fruitful results.

Rui on the side nodded slightly in agreement, but his eyes were always fixed on Wuli seriously.

"Well, but I'm not sure whether this land can be used for sowing again after we have dug them all up?" Rui Wei frowned and raised his doubts.

Hearing this, Wu Li nodded without hesitation and responded: "Yes! Of course!"

Her tone was firm and full of confidence.

Then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she added, "When the time comes, we can cut the sweet potatoes into small pieces and plant them as seeds. I know this method very well!"

Having said that, Wu Li's face was filled with a proud smile, as if he had mastered a unique secret book.

Then, she pointed to the golden cornfield and enthusiastically explained, "What's more, we can continue to grow this corn and pick it when the stalks are dry. The kernels harvested this way can be ground into a fine powder and stored for a long time without spoiling. It's also very filling."

"Really? This is actually true!"

Rui widened his eyes and looked at Wu Li in disbelief. His hands involuntarily gripped her shoulders tightly with such force that it seemed as if he wanted to embed her into his body.

"Yeah! Absolutely true!"

Wu Li felt Rui's burning gaze and excitement. She was also very excited. She nodded repeatedly, a smile as bright as a spring flower bloomed on her face, and her eyes sparkled with joy.

Rui's eyes suddenly became gentle and profound. He looked at Wuli and said slowly, "Ali, you know so much. From now on, all our planting plans will be led by you, okay?"

Wu Li was a little surprised, but still nodded.

At this time, a small bird flew onto the branch next to it and chirped non-stop.

Rui seemed to be inspired and said, "Also, we can try raising some poultry. We can eat their eggs, and their feathers might be useful."

Wu Li's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands in praise.

The two became more and more excited as they talked, and planned to expand the planting area and introduce more types of crops.

For example, you can open up a paddy field by the river to try growing rice.

Suddenly, a dark cloud floated in the sky and blocked the sun.

Rui looked up at the sky and said worriedly, "If the weather is bad, will it affect the harvest?"

Wu Li smiled and said, "We can build some simple awnings or something like that in advance."

As the discussion deepened, they found that they had a better understanding of each other.

The dark clouds gradually dissipated, and the sun shone again, illuminating this hopeful plantation and reflecting their hopeful faces.
