Fat Orange blinked and asked honestly, "But last time by the river, didn't you wash yourself?"

Xi Xi: "..." So, is he rejecting me?

Ugh! I'm so angry!

"Last time was last time, and now it's this time. I'm further along in my pregnancy, and it's inconvenient for me!"

"But the last time was just yesterday!" As soon as the fat orange cat said that, it realized it had said the wrong thing. Seeing the little female glaring at it angrily, it looked like she was about to fight it to the death!

"I... am... uh... okay... I'll help you!"

He quickly agreed, but then added, "I'll be very careful and try not to bump into you!"

Xi Xi: "..." She's poisonous!

In the end, it definitely happened.

Just as they lifted Xixi into the water, their eyes locked in a passionate embrace, a knocking sound suddenly came from outside the door. Each knock was urgent and incessant, reaching their ears one after another...

Left with no other choice, Fatty Orange reluctantly got up and went to open the door, gritting his teeth.

A young male stood outside the door, his face filled with anxiety. He rushed forward as soon as Fatty Orange opened the door, shouting, "Fatty Orange, quick! Come with me to rescue them!"

"What happened?" Fatty Orange frowned. Normally, he wouldn't even ask a question and would just rush over, but Xixi was at home and taking a shower!

"Something terrible has happened! Our team encountered a blue-faced mammoth while hunting. We were planning to carefully go around it, but someone must have startled it. It went berserk and charged at us. Several of our brothers are already injured. The captain ordered me to come back and get reinforcements immediately, otherwise we might all be wiped out!" The man spoke very quickly, and his expression was extremely anxious. There was blood on the hem of his animal-patterned robe, indicating that he had just gone through a fierce battle.

Subconsciously, Fatty Orange rushed out, but then he thought of Xixi in the house, his father and the shaman's instructions, and Nuannuan's accusations. Xixi only had him as her beast husband. If he left, what would happen to Xixi?

Rather than saying that Xixi needs more beastmen, it would be more accurate to say that it needs sworn brothers who can always be there to protect Xixi and ensure its safety!

After all, even if it weren't for rescuing people, he would still have to go out hunting and would always have to leave for a while.

However, this matter cannot be resolved immediately; the key is that Xixi herself must like it and be willing to accept it.

For now, we can only take care of the present!

He went inside and gave a few brief instructions. After leaving, he closed the gate behind him and then ran next door to ask Nuannuan to take care of him.

Only after Nuannuan's repeated assurances and the male's repeated urging did he lead a group of tribesmen away from the tribe to go to the rescue.

Soon, news of the tribe's attack and Fat Orange leading the rescue team spread rapidly throughout the entire tribe.

Those whose families are away naturally feel worried, but some single males think that now that Fat Orange is not around, isn't this the perfect opportunity for them?

Gradually, the courtyard became much more lively than before, with people coming and going.

At first, Nuannuan tried to stop her, but when the male asked, "Don't you want Xixi to only have Fatty Orange as her beast husband? Like today, Fatty Orange led a team out for rescue. There have to be other males at home to take care of Xixi, otherwise, if she's hungry, sleepy, or uncomfortable, who will take care of her? We can't trouble you all the time. You can guard the gate, but can you also serve her personally? Or can your beast husbands serve her personally? In critical moments, she still has to rely on her own beast husband!"

Nuannuan thought about it and realized that what he said made sense, so she ordered her husband to step back. She continued to walk around outside the courtyard, chasing away anyone who was acting suspiciously, behaving improperly, or had a dark past. As for the others, she turned a blind eye and let them in.

As soon as Fatty Orange left, Xixi knew that she wouldn't be able to take a bath again. After all, this world is not like her previous life, where there were security doors and windows. Here, there are doors, but they are just for show. Whether you climb over the wall, crawl through a hole, or even kick it open, you can easily get in. There is no sense of security at all!

However, she thought that with Fatty Orange's lingering influence in front and Nuan Nuan guarding the gate from behind, they wouldn't arrive too quickly.

But just as she finished dressing and before she could even deal with the bucket of water, the first wave of males arrived!

The two who arrived were brothers. They weren't particularly good-looking, and they weren't as tall as Fat Orange. They were the kind of people who looked quite ordinary. As soon as they arrived, they got straight to the point and introduced their families, names, combat strength, talents, and abilities. They also stated their purpose for coming here, which was to become beastmen of Xixi.

Without waiting for Xixi's response, she busied herself in the courtyard.

Both of them were quick to notice what was going on. First, they arranged the stone furniture that Fatty Orange hadn't had time to organize, dividing the entire courtyard, including the inner room, into functional areas. Then, based on the different functions, they added some decorations while arranging the furniture.

Neither of them came empty-handed; their baskets contained dried flowers, dried grass, dried fruit, and even some monster fur...

Xixi initially refused, since no one wants two people to suddenly come and renovate your home. But later she discovered that this was not an ordinary renovation; it was a modern renovation!

A courtyard of moderate size and an ordinary interior room, after being renovated by the two, not only were their functions differentiated and made more convenient to use, but the bedroom with the bed also became cozy.

It makes one feel that the life of the beastly husband and his son on a warm kang (heated brick bed) is so blissful!

After finishing their work, the two did not linger. They introduced themselves again, sincerely requesting that Xixi carefully consider their proposal to take them as her husbands. Then they retreated and left.

During this time, the two of them didn't say much, nor did they use coercion or inducement. They simply worked diligently and attentively, without any personal desires involved.

After witnessing the ugly faces of the males in the female cave, seeing such pure and simple males made her appreciate the beauty of tribal life. No wonder Hua Niang was determined to leave, even though no one could force her to.

After the brothers left, more people came over. Some helped reinforce the stove, some brought fresh tender meat, and some even set up a fire to roast the meat until it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Paired with their homemade seasonings, it was so delicious that it made your tongue tingle!

Of course, the large tub of bathwater did not escape the male's gaze. Although the glances were somewhat ambiguous, they were quickly withdrawn, and he only asked one more question.

Should we pour this water away?

“Pour it down!” she answered.

"Okay, after you pour it out, I'll fetch some clean stream water for you!"
