The Law of Food Raising - 62
Chapter 62 - Qiyao
After Duoduo gave birth, her vitality was greatly reduced. Samus took care of her every day, taking great care of her, for fear that something might go wrong. Others didn't know the news, they just thought Duoduo was sick, and they all asked Samus to express their greetings.
Duoduo has always maintained a rabbit shape, guarding their little rabbits. They are too fragile. Although there is plenty of spiritual energy in the rabbit palace, the outside environment is not ideal. Even Duoduo herself cannot adapt to the smell of mutated plants.
"Duoduo, look, it opened its eyes!" Samus pointed at the pink bunny and said excitedly.
【Then let him be the big brother.】Duoduo touched the pink rabbit's head.
"Is this a boy?" Samus looked at it. It was covered in light pink fur, its eyes were half-open and half-closed, and it looked like it was not awake. It was really cute.
He carefully picked up the pink rabbit, opened its hind legs and checked it. It seemed that he didn't see ...
Duoduo glanced at him sideways. Is the gender of a rabbit so easy to identify? She decided not to tell him the secret.
"Duoduo, have you decided what to name them?" Samus asked.
When it comes to this, Duoduo is a little entangled. It is also troublesome to have too many children. Naming is simply a problem of the century.
【You can name them.】 She wisely gave this difficult task to Samus.
Samus was very interested: "No problem, leave it to me. Let's give them a nickname for now. Well, it must be easy to remember and nice to hear."
Duoduo picked a fruit from the fruit plate next to her and ate it while waiting.
"Yes." Samus pointed at the little rabbits one by one, "Taiyang, Yueliang, Taibai, Suixing, Chenxing, Yinghuo, and Zhenxing, these are the legendary Qiyao*. They can be temporarily used as nicknames for our children."
*七曜 (Qīyào) - the seven planets of pre-modern astronomy (the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn)
Duoduo said: "These nicknames are too difficult to remember, so why not call them, Yangyang, Yueyue, Jinjin, Mumu, Shuishui, Huohuo, and Tutu." 】*
*From Chinese Medicine Theory of yin (moon) yang (sun) and the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth) ... So Duoduo is suggesting that they should just call them sunsun, moonmoon, metalmetal, woodwood ... (≧▽≦)
Samus thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Yes, let's call them that."
In the next day or two, the seven little rabbits opened their eyes one after another, and Duoduo ranked them according to the order in which they opened their eyes.
The largest pink rabbit (male) is Yangyang, the light gray Yueyue (female), the dark gray Jinjin (male), the two black rabbits are Mumu (male) and Shuishui (female), the brown rabbit is Huohuo (female), and Tutu (male) with black hair and white ears. Although the seven rabbits have different fur colors, they all have one similarity, which is a small tuft of white hair between their foreheads.
When the little rabbits were able to move, Duoduo began to take them around the garden. Every day when Samus came back, he would see a big white rabbit playing with seven little rabbits. Duoduo seemed to be teaching them various life skills.
The little rabbits are very curious about everything in the outside world and are very adaptable. However, they are very clingy and follows Duoduo step by step. They have taken over his woman and Samus thinks Duoduo might have forgotten to mention he is their father.
Unwilling to be forgotten, Samus went over to communicate with them from time to time, but sadly found that he could not learn their language at all. He could only stare from the sidelines, being despised by a group of rabbits. They would only reluctantly get close to him when he was feeding them.
"Duoduo, we haven't been alone together for a long time!" Samus complained to Duoduo.
【Don't worry, just four or five more days. 】Duoduo laid leisurely on the grass enjoying the sunshine, and seven little rabbits laid beside her, as carefree as a rabbit.
Samus looked at the hair ball on the ground and felt extremely itchy. He reached out to pick up Mumu, put it in the palm of his hand and poked it.
Mumu raised his shrunken head to see who was h*rassing him. When he saw that it was his father, he buried his head in his hair again, no matter how much Samus poked it out.
"Is it really okay to be so lazy?" Samus expressed his melancholy about his child's growth.
【According to human standards, they are still young children and cannot walk steadily. How much more powerful can you ask them to be? 】
"That boy is very powerful." Samus pointed at the brown-haired Huohuo. Watching it climb up and down, having a great time.
Duoduo was silent for a while and said:【Huohuo is a girl. 】
"..." Samus stopped talking. It's been more than a couple of months, and he still can't tell the gender of his children!
At this time, a scream suddenly came from the sky, and a big bird hovered over the plantation, staring down at Duoduo and the others.
All the rabbits looked up.
Duoduo gave a warning, then turned over and jumped up, leading the little rabbits into the plant forest, covering herself with leaves.
Samus, who was left on the spot: "..."
He looked at the big bird, jumped up suddenly, spread a pair of black wings behind his back, and a beam of energy shot out, piercing the big bird with a whoosh. The big bird screamed and fell from the sky, and Samus also slowly came back to the ground.
The seven little rabbits were stunned, with expressions of admiration on their faces: It turns out that Papa is such a powerful creature!
Samus grabbed the big bird's body and snorted coldly: If you dare to scare his babies, you are simply tired of living.
He lowered his head and found that all the little rabbits who usually ignored him had gathered around his feet, raising their heads and looking at him with pairs of bright eyes.
What is this sense of satisfaction from being worshiped? Samus' expression was stern, but he was extremely proud in his heart. For the first time, he felt taller.
Since then, the little rabbits' attitude towards Samus has completely changed, especially the lively Jinjin and Huohuo, who follow Samus every day and regard him as their idol.
Samus walked in a windy manner, feeling proud and proud. Sometimes he would deliberately run up to Duoduo to show off. As a result, Duoduo would summon all the little rabbits to move to another garden. As a result, Samus was completely aware of his status and no longer dared to "compete" with Duoduo for favor.
After such a long break, Samus once again went into construction work. The existence of rabbits is no longer a secret, but no one associates them with Duoduo. They only think of them as pets that Samus found for Duoduo. The soft and cute rabbits quickly won everyone's love. However, Samus, who was protecting their babies, never let them touch a hair.
After so many days of recuperation, Duoduo gradually recovered her strength and began work on her plantation again.
The little rabbits followed her and learned everything about her. Duoduo soon discovered that they were different. These little guys could actually mobilize spiritual energy and stimulate the growth of plants. Although the effect is not as good as hers, the success rate of cultivating E-class plants is very high. In this way, when they are weaned, they can grow their own food without having to worry about going hungry.
Duoduo often found one or two E-level plants for them and let them cultivate them independently to train their abilities in this area.
"What is this?" Samus came back that day and found a twisted red flower growing on the head of his bed. The flower was as big as a basin. The petals were curled and covered with spots. It looked like it contained highly toxic substances.
Duoduo had just taken a shower and walked into the room barefoot, explaining: "That's Huohuo's masterpiece. It only took one day for her to grow this spotted orchid."
"It doesn't look like a friendly plant." Samus continued to stare at the big red flower.
"It's really not very friendly." Duoduo casually picked up the comb and threw it at the orchid. As soon as the comb touched its petals, it was wrapped in its mouth. After a while, a few drops of mucus flowed out from the cracks in the leaves. The petals have reopened and the comb has been digested.
Samus: "..." Is it really okay to plant such a scary big red flower next to his pillow? He didn't want to lose his head when he fell asleep one day.
"Duoduo, you should keep an eye on those little brats and don't let them plant flowers and grass everywhere." Samus said helplessly, "Also, don't touch any plants that are too dangerous."
Duoduo said: "It shouldn't have been like this after the orchid was cultivated."
She walked up to the orchid and reached out to touch its petals. The spiritual energy circulated and the originally ferocious flowers gradually became soft and beautiful. The leaves stretched out, like a graceful girl, shyly showing off her pretty face and exuding a pleasant fragrance.
"The orchid is a D-level ornamental plant that can soothe your mood and help you sleep." Duoduo explained, "But I don't know why, after being cultivated by Huohuo, it actually retained some of its attributes before it mutated."
"Is this good or bad?" Samus asked quickly.
"It's a mixed bag of good and bad." Duoduo frowned. Personally, she didn't like mutant attributes, but some plants would become more powerful after retaining their attributes.
"Okay, don't worry." Samus could see her frowning and walked over to hug her. "They are still small and have a lot of room to grow. Unfortunately, I can't help at all in this regard."
When they change their human form, Samus probably won’t say that. Duoduo secretly thought that at least four of the seven little rabbits had human genes that were stronger than rabbit genes.
Samus smelled her and said in a low voice: "It seems like we haven't been together for a long time..."
Before Duoduo could say anything, he lowered his head, kissed her lips, and began to tug at her clothes.
"Um...wait..."
"Can't wait any longer!" Samus put one hand around Duoduo's waist and lifted up the quilt with the other hand. Then he made a move and saw seven furballs lying on the bed, with fourteen small eyes staring at him and Duoduo.
"I was just about to tell you that the little rabbits were hiding under the quilt." Duoduo said.
Samus let go of Duoduo, wrapped his arms around all the little rabbits, carried them out of the room, and placed them in the nursery next door.
"You are all old enough, you should no longer sleep with your parents!" Samus said majestically, "From now on, you will sleep here."
Yangyang, Yueyue and Tutu didn't react at all, but the other four were dissatisfied, bouncing up and down like bouncy balls in protest.
"Protests are futile." Samus said resolutely, "If I find you sneaking into mine and your mommy's room late at night, I will secretly throw you away."
The four little things became quiet and leaned together for comfort. The others went to sleep. Only Yangyang glanced at Samus lightly, then turned around, found a comfortable position, and gathered together quietly.
Satisfied, Samus returned to the bedroom with light steps and opened his arms to Duoduo: "My dear, let's continue."
