Pampered Beasts: Beautiful Actress, Many Children, Many Blessings

Such behavior deserves a beating as punishment, but who would have thought that instead of being beaten, the person who made the mistake received a loving hug!

Who can bear this?

“Xixi…” Yin You was the first to object, speaking with a wronged tone, “Last night, if I hadn’t come looking for you in time and accurately located the Youjia Restaurant…”

"Yes! My Yinyou is the best, this is just in time!" Xixi knew exactly what Yinyou was thinking. While hugging Yunxi, she also hugged Yinyou, one in each arm, and successfully began to enjoy the blissful life of having one on each side.

Sikong Hongyu took a deep breath, only to find his already red eyes even redder. To avoid frightening his wife, he had no choice but to silently look away.

He is the first husband, so he must be dignified, authoritative, and self-disciplined, and must not be jealous or quarrelsome!

Seeing Sikong Hongyu silently turn his back, Xixi called out to him in confusion, "Yu, are you not feeling well? Well, you've been up all night, you should get some rest. How about this, I'll go out for a walk with Yunxi and Yinyou later, and you can catch up on your sleep at home... Oh, right, I'll take Xida with me too, so he won't disturb your sleep!"

Xi Xi, pleased with herself for making the arrangements so considerately, then, carrying the excited little bird, led Yun Xi and Yin You, the two beast husbands, away happily, leaving Si Kong Hongyu with silently red eyes.

Originally, my son was with me, but now even he has been taken away!

I'm so angry, but my wife is doing it for my own good, so I can't blame her!

But I'm still so angry and so wronged!

I want to go out for a stroll too, no, I want to stay with my wife all the time!

Unfortunately, Xixi was destined never to hear Sikong Hongyu's cries.

At this moment, she walked on the bustling street, looking around, occasionally rushing to one stall and then another, her whole being radiating excitement, with laughter and cheerful voices everywhere.

As the venue for the Holy Queen selection, Yunyao City has always been the most prosperous place outside of the Central Continent. Not to mention now, on the eve of the Holy Queen selection, it is even more lively.

Originally, Xixi didn't come out to buy anything; he simply wanted to explore the local customs and culture, and get a feel for the city's layout.

After walking around for a while, Yunxi and Yinyou inevitably ended up carrying a lot of things.

There are small ornaments made of conch shells and other shells, warm coats, hats and boots made of whole animal hides, open containers made of various sizes, and even cotton clothes and trousers and rice that are said to have come from the Central Plains!

Xixi was somewhat interested in the previous items, but not too much. After picking out one or two items as a token gesture, she rushed towards those items that were said to be exclusive to the Central Continent.

Upon seeing the actual product, Xixi was absolutely certain that these cotton-padded clothes and trousers were indeed filled with cotton!

However, the manufacturing process was mediocre, and the cotton fibers were not fully separated from the seeds, resulting in many seeds mixed in with the cotton-padded clothes. This affected the comfort of wearing them and greatly reduced their warmth.

As for the rice here, it can only be considered the predecessor of modern rice. The grains are small, light, and yellowish, with no appeal whatsoever.

In addition, the stall's prices were extremely high, making it seem very deserted compared to the bustling street.

"A cotton-padded coat costs fifty high-grade crystals, cotton-padded trousers cost fifty high-grade crystals, and rice costs fifty high-grade crystals per pound!"

Xi Xi read the prices engraved on the wooden shelf, then looked at the calm shop and couldn't help but suggest, "Brother, cotton-padded clothes can't be separated, so you can sell them one by one, but rice can be sold loose, why are you insisting on selling it by the pound? One or two ounces are fine too!"

As she spoke, she took out five high-grade crystals and handed them over, "Give me an ounce of rice!"

It wasn't that she didn't have money; she was just curious whether the rice would taste the same as it did in her previous life.

If she could feel a little hope, she would be able to have a full meal once she entered the Central Continent.

If not, then she should give up on that idea.

But to everyone's surprise, the stall owner didn't even raise an eyelid and simply said, "Not for sale!"

"Hey! You're such a bad businessman!" Xixi muttered to herself, but still took out forty-five high-grade crystals and handed them over. "Here, fifty high-grade crystals, and give me a pound of rice!"

This time, the stall owner at least glanced at her, but still didn't look at her directly. "Not selling! If you want to buy, buy them all!"

"Buy them all? What do you mean? You don't mean you want me to buy all the goods on your stall, do you?" Xixi roughly counted that there were five cotton-padded clothes and five cotton-padded trousers, and a large bag of rice, which looked to weigh about seven or eight pounds.

If we calculate based on the other party's price, the total cost of taking everything away would be approximately nine hundred high-grade crystals!

Just then, Yin You tugged at Xi Xi's sleeve and whispered, "Xi Xi, I'm ashamed to say, I haven't given you my dowry yet."

As he spoke, he handed over a jade pendant. "This is 100,000 high-grade crystals, only one-tenth of the total. There are still 900,000 that we can't take with us. I'll bury them under the old house. When we go back, I'll dig them up for you!"

The so-called old house is located in the southern continent. After all, it represents the accumulated wealth of a clan, so it is naturally enormous.

However, instead of readily paying, Xixi sneered, "Although I'm rich, I'm not stupid. What use would I have for such low-quality cotton-padded clothes and rice grains smaller than millet?"

With that, she took Yunxi's arm with one hand and grabbed Yinyou with the other, then turned and left.

This time, the stall owner not only raised his head, but also walked straight past Xixi and stood in front of the three of them, saying with a wooden face: "There will be a match in the arena at noon today. You bet on me to win, and we'll split the winnings 50/50!"

"Huh?" It took Xixi a while to figure out what the other person was talking about.

I had long heard that there was a gladiatorial arena in Yunyao City, where two types of people competed: free outlaws and slaves with indentures held by the arena owner.

The outlaws compete on the field, gaining fame through victory after victory, and thus attracting the attention of females, especially newly crowned holy maidens.

When there are no outlaws, slaves will be forced to take to the field. Their opponents may be fellow slaves or even monsters. The battle will not be a contest of victory or defeat, but a battle for life or death.

Why should I bet on you to win?

"Because I'm very strong!" the male said confidently.

"What if you lose? Wouldn't my investment be wasted?" Xixi frowned. She had never been to the arena and didn't think it was a good place.

It's full of blood and violence, and even death!

"I won't lose!" the male said confidently, then added, "It's a deal, remember to come!"

After saying that, he left without giving Xixi any chance to refute him.
