Chapter 85 The Mischievous Tiger Cub
Chapter 85 The Mischievous Tiger Cub
Chief Eagle stayed at the Lion Clan's village for two days and had a very happy time. Today he is going back.
"Ling Xiao, take good care of the baby. Father is going back. Be diligent with the chores around the house. Also, learn from Ye Ying sometimes. Look how much Ye Ying is pampered."
Luo Lingxiao thought to himself, "We all want to learn from Ye Ying, but none of us can."
"Don't worry, Father, I understand," Luo Lingxiao said.
"Good to know, I'm leaving." With that, she flew into the sky.
Luo Lingxiao watched the Eagle Clan Chief's departing figure, feeling a pang of reluctance. He turned back to the courtyard and saw the five tiger cubs causing mischief. Despite their naughtiness, they were quite clever; if Lin Weiwei and Ye Ying were there, they would be very well-behaved and obedient.
If Ye Ying and Lin Weiwei weren't around, they would go crazy playing in the yard, making a complete mess of everything. Sometimes, after breakfast, the five of them would go to the square to play together, and when they got hungry, they would come back to eat on their own. They weren't even a year old yet, so they couldn't transform or talk. However, usually, mischievous kids are quite clever, and with a rather irresponsible father, they would stick to their mother's side whenever they had time. Sometimes, when the five tiger cubs saw their father's appearance, they would shake their heads, thinking that their father was too childish and not as mature as they were.
At this moment, Ye Ying was unaware that he was so unreliable in the eyes of his children. However, even if he knew, he would still praise his children for being good, for being able to play well after eating, and for coming back to eat when they were hungry. He would also teach them that if they were bullied, the five of them should fight together, and if they lost, they could come back to their father.
Actually, this free-range approach is better for the children. It's not entirely free-range; several grandfathers and grandmothers in the tribe will quietly follow the children and only turn back after they've returned to their own yards. Sometimes, the grandfathers and grandmothers will also take them to play and bring them back.
Luo Lingxiao looked helplessly at the mess on the ground and said, "When your father and mother get up, they'll definitely give you a good beating."
He went over, picked up the five tiger cubs, and cleaned them.
At this moment, Lin Weiwei and Ye Ying came out of the cave and saw wooden buckets, wooden basins, wooden bowls, and firewood for burning, all in a mess.
Upon seeing this, the five tiger cubs immediately became incredibly obedient, running to Lin Weiwei's feet and rubbing against her.
Nightshade smiled and said, "It seems our little one still likes his mother more."
Lin Weiwei rolled her eyes at him and said, "It was the five of you who did this, wasn't it!"
The five tiger cubs nodded, acknowledging their mistakes and striving to be honest.
Lin Weiwei found their honest expressions amusing, and suppressed a laugh as she said, "You can't do this again next time. If you do it again, your father will be punished." After saying that, she gently patted Ye Ying's shoulder a few times.
Nightshade also pretended to say, "Ouch! Ouch! That hurts."
Then he said to the five tiger cubs, "You can't make a mess of the house anymore, understand? If you cause trouble again, your father will be punished. It still hurts a lot here." After Nightshade finished speaking, he pointed to his shoulder.
The five tiger cubs rolled their eyes at Nightshade, thinking, "Who would believe that? You might fool our mother, but we're not stupid." However, they nodded to Nightshade to indicate that they understood.
Seeing that they obediently admitted their mistakes, Lin Weiwei said, "After Father and Mother have eaten their fill, I'll take you out to play."
Ye Jiasi and Ye Mingsi clapped their hands happily when they heard this, while Ye Pang, Ye Zhan, and Ye You jumped up and down as if their mischievous genes were incurable.
Seeing this, Lin Weiwei laughed and patted Ye Ying repeatedly, saying, "You naughty father, how could you possibly have an obedient child?"
Nightshade chuckled and said, "No."
After Lin Weiwei and Ye Ying finished their meal, they took the five tiger cubs out. They went to the outer area, where the trees were shady and the air was fresh.
The tiger cubs were extremely excited. They ran and played in the woods, occasionally pouncing on some small wild animals, but quickly letting go.
Ye Ying and Lin Weiwei sat on the grass nearby, watching the children's joyful figures, and the two of them were also happy.
At this moment, Ye Pang transformed into a small beastman and ran over to Ye Ying and Lin Weiwei, saying, "Father, Mother, come and see me."
Lin Weiwei and Ye Ying were also delighted to see this. Their little one had also transformed at ten months old, so they said to Ye Pang, "Pang'er is really amazing. Why don't you go and teach your younger siblings how to transform?"
Ye Pang nodded, walked over to his younger siblings, and whispered the transformation technique in their ears. Soon, Ye Zhan and Ye You also successfully transformed into little beastmen. Ye Jiasi and Ye Mingsi succeeded after a few tries.
Lin Weiwei called them over and helped them put on their clothes.
The five little ones were even happier after getting dressed, and they ran and played to their hearts' content on the grass. Ye Ying and Lin Weiwei watched this scene with eyes full of love.
