Chapter 27 Punishing Bai Qiaoqiao
The females responded one after another.
Granny Tao is the oldest living female, a medicine man, and the lover of the clan leader.
She is highly respected and her words carry weight, and no one dares to disobey her.
Even Bai Qiaoqiao quickly said loudly: "Remember it."
Granny Tao lectured Bai Qiaoqiao:
“Qiaoqiao, if you cause trouble again, I will punish you personally, or even expel you.
Your malice and unkindness towards Qianqian this time needs to be warned."
Bai Qiaoqiao quickly explained: "Mother-in-law, I didn't do it on purpose, I just had some doubts."
“The things you did behind my back could not be hidden from everyone’s eyes.
You are a precious female, I cannot hurt your body casually.
Are Bai Qiaoqiao's five beastly husbands here?"
Five beastmen stepped out and stood in a row respectfully.
"The five of you kneel down and receive 40 lashes each. This is your punishment for not taking good care of your females.
Remember this in the future: causing trouble will eventually lead to greater disasters and may even cost the animal its life.
For your own sake, you must also take good care of Qiaoqiao, do you hear me?"
The five people knelt down early, lowered their heads and said: I heard it.
He Qianqian was also stunned when she saw it.
Bai Qiaoqiao's male is so unlucky.
Just like in ancient times, when a young lady made a mistake, her maids and servants would be beaten with a stick.
But think about it, Granny Tao was not wrong to punish her. If the males used all means, couldn't they keep Bai Qiaoqiao in the cave?
Chieftain Xiaer came over and said to the five people kneeling, "Females are ignorant, but are you five also ignorant? Have you let dogs eat your hearts and minds?
Five mouths to feed, and he can’t even appease his own female?
This time I've made you stay in bed for half a month, can you learn a lesson?"
The five of them blushed and didn't dare to talk back.
Bai Qiaoqiao covered her mouth and cried out of fear: "Chief, all five of us are lying in the den. No one in my family will go hunting and we will starve. That's half a month."
The clan leader said sternly: "You are right, going hungry is the punishment for what you did wrong.
So we need to whip them harder.”
She burst into tears.
Even if she is a very tsundere cat-like beauty with bad intentions, she will still feel sorry for her beastly husband.
That was her lifelong support.
She also knelt beside him, holding the First Beast Husband's hand, crying and sobbing:
"I'm sorry for you."
The First Beast Husband wiped her tears: "Qiaoqiao, don't cry. Let's not make mistakes in the future."
There was no intention of blaming her at all, and Bai Qiaoqiao cried even harder.
The five beastly husbands all knelt down, wiped her tears, and tried to comfort her.
At this time, Lingye stepped forward and said, "Patriarch, I'll take the punch."
"Okay." Charles handed him the whip.
Bai Qiaoqiao looked up at Lingye, her eyes pleading: "Lingye, please hit me lightly. I beg you. Because we will be a family in the future."
"Who is your family? I have decided to join Li Yan and He Qianqian's family. Don't say that again."
After a pause, Lingye continued, "If you dare to bully Qianqian again, I will beat up all your beastly husbands. If your legs are lame, you will have to take care of them for more than a month before you can leave the nest."
Bai Qiaoqiao was so sad that she burst into tears.
More orcs from the tribe surrounded them, but left enough space.
Just listen to the whistling sound of the whip breaking through the air, it hurts so much.
The five beastly husbands said nothing, and Bai Qiaoqiao's eyes were swollen from crying.
Granny Tao prepared some medicine for their wounds and applied it to them.
Bai Qiaoqiao then slowly left with the five beastly men.
Lingye hit his back but not his legs.
Xia Er stared at He Qianqian's belly and said with a smile:
"Qianqian, go back and rest quickly. Don't get too tired."
"Chief, I also need to teach you how to grow plants and how to cook potatoes."
Xia Er waved his hand and said: "You just need to teach Li Yan with your mouth, and he will teach everyone else.
Now go back and rest."
Li Yan responded and walked back holding He Qianqian's hand.
Lingye also followed behind.
He Qianqian asked Lingye: "Why do you ask to hold the whip yourself?
It will hurt your relationship with those five people."
Lingye shook his head: "The whip made a loud noise, and the wound looks serious, but it's not harmful to the body. Orcs have strong abilities, so it will heal in a few days.
I just don’t know how long these five people can deceive Bai Qiaoqiao?
If you can’t cheat, you can only crawl out of the nest as soon as possible.”
He Qianqian suddenly understood and laughed.
Yes, yes, when the males are scheming, the females have no chance of survival and even she gets fooled.
I didn’t expect that males are so cunning, and they are so good at using these “eye-catching tricks” and “killing the chicken to scare the monkey”.
Even the clan leader joined in the acting, and they understood each other tacitly.
She had a new understanding of Lingye.
Although he looks cold, he has a warm heart. He is not lacking in strength, nor is he lacking in worldliness and cunning.
Because these five people are also rare warriors in the tribe, and they are brothers of a hunting team.
They didn't beg for mercy but were still comforting Bai Qiaoqiao. It seemed that they were just cooperating in the acting.
Even if He Qianqian wanted to teach Bai Qiaoqiao a lesson, she had to consider the feelings of these five beastly husbands.
Because when the tribe is in crisis, it depends on these warriors to hold on.
Li Yan asked: "Lingye, why did you follow me?"
"I'm learning to grow plants with you. Qianqian is pregnant, so you'll definitely be too busy to handle it."
"..." He was right. When Li Yan first heard that Qianqian was pregnant, he felt mixed emotions of joy and sorrow. He really had no idea what was going on.
There are so many things to do, hunting, winter storage, preparing animal skins for bedding and clothes for the cold season, and taking care of Qianqian, all of which require time.
A female cat will give birth to cubs after two months of pregnancy. She will calculate the date and give birth on a snowy day.
More supplies need to be prepared in advance.
After entering the fenced yard, He Qianqian sat at the table to rest.
Li Yan started to get busy. The meat that was marinated last night had to be hung up to dry first.
Lingye took out a red fruit: "Wash it and eat it."
"Okay." She was thirsty, and He Qianqian didn't want to let herself suffer since she was pregnant.
Lingye mustered up his courage and said, "Qianqian, I want to join your and Liyan's family and be your beastly husband."
He Qianqian: ...
Lingye is very direct.
"I really want to join, Qianqian, I like you."
"When did you start liking it?"
Ling Ye in front of him had a passionate and sincere look in his eyes, and under her gaze, his cheeks became redder and redder.
"It started from the time you slapped Bai Qiaoqiao." Lingye no longer avoided the question and looked directly into her eyes: "I have done wrong things in the past, but from now on, I will never miss you again.
Qianqian, I believe you will not change."
"I didn't hit her to protect you at that time." He Qianqian clarified.
"I know. When you stretched out your claws, you were so vivid and beautiful, and completely different from other females, but you won my heart deeply."
Stretch out your claws? He Qianqian lowered her head in embarrassment.
She stroked her belly and thought, in two months she would be a mother with cubs, so she should be more practical in her considerations.
Lingye was indeed a good choice. What's more, he liked her before she became pregnant. At that time, her fertility had not yet been confirmed and she was thin and ugly.
This is rare.
Without waiting for a reply, Lingye continued: "Qianqian, you can take your time to think about it. But in the future, can I come here every day to take care of you? I want to dig a hole next to you--"
He sensed the danger coming and blocked it with his hand.
There was a "bang" sound.
The tabby cat jumped onto the stone table, but was blocked by Lingye. The cat's body knocked over He Qianqian's bamboo jar.
The rice is all spilled...
