He wasn't some jealous, wicked man who would prevent his wife from taking other beastly husbands. How could he possibly force Xixi to abandon him after she had already taken him as a husband?

This is a matter of life and death; he would never do it!

He swears!

Really, it's just a tiny bit uncomfortable, just a tiny bit.

However, after hearing Yunxi's heartfelt words, that slight discomfort had long since vanished, replaced by pity and regret for him.

He knew about child sons-in-law, and he called it a bad custom because he deeply abhorred this method of raising children!

"Tell me secretly, who raised you to be their son-in-law!" At this moment, Fatty Orange already regarded him as his brother-in-law, and he would never let anyone who dared to hurt his brother get away with it.

Hearing those menacing words, Yunxi smacked his lips twice, thinking to himself that this kid was even more naive than he had imagined, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed to continue fooling him.

As Fatty Orange asked his question, everyone on the trip looked at Yun Dong's family, their intentions clear.

Following the crowd's gaze, Fatty Orange glared fiercely at Yun Dongjia, letting out a threatening roar.

"Uh..." Xixi felt uneasy and quickly tried to smooth things over, "Fat Orange, that's my fourth uncle, the one I mentioned to you before, the one who raised me and took great care of me! Actually, my fourth uncle meant well; he was worried that I wouldn't be able to find a suitable beast mate, so he..."

This put Fatty Orange in an awkward position, with a bunch of words stuck in his throat, unable to come out or not.

After a while, Fatty Orange suddenly grabbed Yunxi's hand and placed it in Xixi's hand. "My brother has had a tough journey. Since you've taken him as your beast mate, you must treat him well and never abandon him! If he makes a mistake and needs to be punished, I, as his elder brother, will take the punishment in his place!"

"Ah~" Yunxi was shocked. This person was too naive and too honest! He was a beast. How could he fool such a good person!

Xixi waved her hands repeatedly, "No..." I really won't hit people!

But Fatty Orange waved his hand, silencing them all, and patted Yunxi on the shoulder, "Look at this little guy, so skinny and weak, he's definitely not going to take a beating, unlike me, who's thick-skinned and tough, I can take whatever I want!"

Yunxi: "..." What a good person, such a good person!

Xixi: "..." Fat Orange, do you have some kind of prejudice against me?

"By the way, I heard that the child groom is quite good at cooking and housework?" Suddenly, Fatty Orange changed the subject and looked at the other person curiously.

"Uh...yes, yes, since elementary school..." Yunxi didn't know why the other party suddenly asked this, but still answered honestly.

Before he could finish speaking, Fatty Orange added, "Alright, Xixi is in need of someone to serve her, so you should stay and take good care of her!"

These words signified complete acceptance of him, and the matter of being kept in the dark for a month was now a thing of the past.

Yunxi achieved his goal, but surprisingly felt no excitement, only guilt.

He took a deep breath, gave Fatty Orange a big hug, and patted him on the back, saying, "Big brother! Thank you!"

The word "Big Brother" was a definite acknowledgment of Fatty Orange's status.

On the Beast World Continent, the First Beast Husband holds a transcendent position, similar to the status of the principal wife in ancient times.

As for the second and third husbands, although they entered the household at different times, their status was roughly the same; according to the previous life's teachings, they were both concubines.

The only difference is that whoever the wife favors more has a higher status; otherwise, there's nothing else.

Xixi's first beast husband died young, Fatty Orange was the second beast husband, and Yunxi was the third beast husband. Logically speaking, Xixi did not need to report to Fatty Orange when taking in beast husbands, nor did Yunxi need to bow down to Fatty Orange.

But today, the two of them gave Fatty Orange a lot of face, especially Yunxi's address of Fatty Orange as "Big Brother," which made him regard Fatty Orange as the number one beast husband!

Fatty Orange was terrified and quickly looked at Xixi's face, but seeing that the latter showed no sign of distress, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still corrected her, "Call me Second Brother!"

The order of the beast husbands is determined the moment the wife takes one in. Even if the later ones are stronger or have higher social status, in terms of family status, the first beast husband is always the eldest brother.

Even if the first beast husband dies, there is no possibility for the successor to take his place. At most, the wife will verbally designate who will exercise the power of the first beast husband, but the order will still not change.

This is why female coming-of-age ceremonies receive so much attention, since the vast majority of first beastmen are born after such ceremonies.

In Fat Orange's opinion, calling him Second Brother is correct in terms of his order of seniority, which is legally correct.

As for "brother", it means that as the older brother, he will protect Yunxi and will never let him be bullied!

As a fellow male, Yunxi naturally understood what Pangju meant. He was used to using tears as a weapon, but at this moment his eyes actually reddened. He hugged Pangju tightly without any regard for his image and whispered, "Thank you, Second Brother! Take care, Second Brother! If you can't handle the Lynx tribe, just tell your little brother, and your little brother will definitely help you!"

"Ha! Our own backyard, how could we not handle it?" Fat Orange was very confident about regaining power.

Moreover, in his view, Yun Xi, who was raised as a child son-in-law, was good at cooking and housework, but definitely not good at fighting.

If he can take it, there's no need for him to come; if he can't, sending him will only be suicide.

As for the "Yun" brand, itinerant merchants have never participated in tribal conflicts, and he could not allow them to participate either, otherwise how could their lynx tribe maintain its authority?

After a long exchange of pleasantries, Nuanfeng and the others finally couldn't bear to watch any longer and urged Pangju to say goodbye to Xixi and Yunxi.

After seeing off Fatty Orange, the "Yun" team didn't delay and set off immediately.

However, Xixi noticed that the path was rather strange, as it seemed to be heading towards her hometown, the Shuoshu tribe.

But then I thought about it again. The Fierce Rabbit Tribe and the Squirrel Tribe were also on this route. The caravan hadn't visited them yet, so perhaps they were going to those two tribes. So I didn't ask any more questions.

Meanwhile, Xixi noticed that Yunxi had been busy ever since the caravan set off. Apart from cooking for her every day, he was constantly being called away by this person or that person, and he spent most of his time with his fourth uncle.

Moreover, everyone in the caravan had a clear division of labor, just like a large machine operating in an orderly manner.

The only difference was that she was an idle person who spent her days looking around aimlessly, asking people all sorts of questions.

Although everyone here was very friendly to her and spoke to her politely, sharing any good food they had with her, they would avoid the topic when asked about the itinerary, saying that the route planning was always done by the owner and the young owner, and they were not aware of it.
