Pampered in the Beast World: The Frail Beauty Has Many Children and Much Fortune – Chapter 13

Ch 13: Really Treating Her Like a Treasure in the Palm

However, Si Shuo’s attention was quickly drawn to the items everyone was trading.

The items sold by the beastmen in the tribe were very conventional, but the things spread out on half of the platform by the traveling merchants were particularly attractive, and also demonstrated the strength and financial resources of this traveling merchant team!

Yi Mei would occasionally pull her to talk: “Si Shuo, what do you want to exchange? I have recently gathered a lot of wild fruits and dried them in the sun. I also have a lot of animal hides accumulated at home. I want to exchange them for some brightly colored animal hides to wear.

Look at those beads and bones made into bracelets and necklaces, how beautiful… The weather is getting warmer and warmer, I want to exchange for some cotton cloth to make clothes, fish skin and snake slough would also work…”

Si Shuo also nodded along. Although the technology and economy of the Beast World Continent were underdeveloped, there was already a rudimentary civilization in the central part of the continent, such as pottery, weaving, farming, and animal husbandry. It’s just that these were all key technologies for the prosperity of a certain tribe or family, and were not widespread.

She could buy things in the mall, but those things could not be taken out and used openly.

In summer, she wanted to wear sweat-absorbent and breathable cotton clothes, not thick animal hide bras and short skirts!

And those bracelets and necklaces, with their random mix of beads and bones, bright colors, and beautiful shapes, she had no resistance to this kind of small decoration.

“My Rong Xing is already lining up. We’ll go back and get the things we want to sell, and then cut in line directly,” Yi Mei pulled Si Shuo back to the cave.

Si Shuo’s two cubic meters of space were filled with eighteen wicker baskets. She placed some of the non-perishable dry goods in the adjacent room.

If you were to say what their family had the most of, it was river food.

Zhile would place shrimp cages in the morning and evening, and each time he placed them in a different place, he would have a rich harvest, basically fifty to sixty catties each time!

Shrimp and crabs with shells took up too much space. The two of them spent their free time marinating the river food in salt, scallions, ginger, cooking wine, soy sauce, and other seasonings, then boiling them, reducing the sauce, and removing the shells to extract the meat, and then drying them.

They were also reluctant to throw away the shells. After drying and crushing them into powder, they were also a good seasoning to enhance the flavor.

After removing the shells and drying, fifty to sixty catties of river food would only leave about twenty-one or twenty-two catties. But the dried river food was heavy, and took up much less space.

She had a basket in her space, and two large baskets were accumulated outside!

Si Shuo took out the wicker basket she usually used for gathering, poured half of the dried river food into it, and placed a bag of meatballs, two bags of dried fruit, twenty bamboo tubes of fruit jam, and ten bamboo tubes of shrimp shell powder on top.

She also rolled up some dull-colored animal hides that were not often used, and left the cave.

Yi Mei also carried a basket on her back and held a bundle in her arms.

Throwing the animal hides down below, the two carefully climbed down the stone steps and continued to carry the animal hides towards the square.

Rong Xing was more clever and lined up closer to the front.

After Yi Mei pulled Si Shuo over, she told Rong Xing what she wanted to exchange. Rong Xing listened carefully and occasionally stuffed some dried fruit into her mouth. The two were sweet and intimate.

Si Shuo couldn’t help but lower her eyes slightly, gently stroking the snow leopard beast mark on the inside of her wrist, a shallow dimple overflowing from the corner of her lips.

Suddenly, a tall and strong male stood beside her, his voice slightly hoarse, and said with a smile:

“Hello, Little Female, I am Tao Yun, the Third in Command of our Dark Crow Merchant Band, with a Level Six combat strength.

You are so beautiful and well-behaved, can I have the honor of becoming your Beast Husband?”

When the surrounding beastmen heard this, they immediately quieted down.

The Lu’ni tribe was powerful, but beastmen with Level Six combat strength were the elite of the tribe.

Each of them had females with at least medium fertility, and they were the First Beastman.

This Third in Command of the traveling merchants was indeed a rogue beastman. He wanted to settle a marriage based solely on appearance, without even bothering to find out what was special about Si Shuo!

However, the person involved, Si Shuo, still had her eyes slightly lowered.

◈◈◈

Yi Mei was secretly anxious for her and poked Si Shuo. Seeing her look up in confusion, she quickly repeated: “Si Shuo, this is Tao Yun, the Third in Command of the traveling merchant band, he wants to be your Beast Husband!”

Si Shuo was stunned and turned her head to look. Just then, Tao Yun looked at her fair and delicate profile with fondness and stuck out his gray, forked tongue, which was almost within reach.

Her face changed drastically and she retreated sharply, shaking her head repeatedly, “I’m, I’m sorry, I have Zhile, I don’t want to, get married, for now.”

If she was pretending to be deaf and couldn’t speak clearly before, this time her pale face and stammering were real, frightened out of her wits!

It was, it was too scary, and she could even smell a cold, fishy smell.

Moreover, Tao Yun’s eyes were larger than those of ordinary beastmen, and his pupils were cracked, able to rotate one hundred and eighty degrees, completely beyond the range of her ability to control her psychological fear.

Thanks, but no thanks!

Ji Liang, who had been watching the show, saw the Little Female’s face change and her whole body tremble. He was enjoying it when he heard Zhile’s name and couldn’t help but stick out his tongue, hissing.

He beckoned to the male assigned by the leader to accompany him, “Zhile got married?”

“Yes, Lord Ji Liang, it’s that blue-eyed white-haired mutated cat female. She’s congenitally deaf and can’t hear others. She can barely understand by looking at people’s lips.

Zhile is now at Level Three combat strength, and he’s also disfigured and has become cold. No female is willing to marry him.

The two of them just made do…”

Ji Liang smiled, “I don’t believe Zhile is someone who would make do.”

He had to say, this Little Female was indeed excessively beautiful and delicate. He had traveled to so many tribes, not to mention how many females he had seen, even Holy Ladies he had seen a couple of handfuls of, but none of them could catch the eye more than her.

When she stood there, she was the purest touch of snow, impossible to ignore.

Moreover, there was not a trace of filth in those azure eyes, making males especially want to imprint some emotion in them!

“That Little Female is indeed good-looking. Zhile, for her sake, caught a lot of tusked boar cubs and raised them in the mountain trench, killing one every one or two days, fearing that Si Shuo wouldn’t have fresh meat to eat…” The man continued in a low voice, “It seems he’s taken a fancy to her. When Si Shuo first arrived, she was thin and timid, looking like she wouldn’t live for many days…”

Ji Liang raised an eyebrow: “Who did Zhile become bonded companions with?”

“No one, Si Shuo only has Zhile. Before Zhile went on the spring hunt, he greeted several of his friends who stayed behind, and they all helped him watch over Si Shuo. No one was foolish enough to provoke her…”

Really treating her like a treasure in the palm, Ji Liang hissed, sticking out his tongue, his vertical pupils narrowing slightly.

Not to mention that blockhead Zhile, even he felt a little itch in his heart after seeing the Little Female’s appearance.

Although Tao Yun was a rogue beastman, his super combat strength was right here, and he was also the Third in Command of the popular traveling merchant team.

It had always been him nodding or shaking his head, there was no way a female would refuse him.

He looked at her with disbelief: “Little Female, why? I know Zhile, his combat strength is low and he can still be your companion, why can’t I?

Call all your Beast Husbands over, and I’ll compete with them one by one!”
