While everyone was busy preparing for the upcoming hot season, Wu Xiaoyin was packing dried fruits while thinking about the pregnant Bin. He wondered how Bin and the baby in his belly were doing. So, when Lei Lu returned, Wu Xiaoyin decided he wanted to go see Bin with him. Lei Lu prioritized Xiao Xiao’s wishes. Upon hearing his plan, he wanted to carry him to Bin and Feng's home, but Xiao Xiao quickly dodged away. Lei Lu was momentarily confused, unsure if he had done something wrong that made Xiao…-

However, Wu Xiaoyin underestimated his inner fears. Reality is always harsher than imagination. As the second month of the hot season began, the entire tribe was busy stockpiling water, for fear of repeating the last hot season's problems with flooding and continuous heavy rain and contamination. Wu Xiaoyin wasn’t allowed to help at home, but he couldn’t sit still. He thought about what he could make, like models of baby cribs, rockers, toy horses, and maracas to gift to the soon-to-be-born…

However, the arrival of the harvest season left the atmosphere in the Giant Tiger Tribe somewhat depressed. It wasn't due to a lack of plants or water, but rather the absence of a bountiful harvest of fruits and wild vegetables. The high temperature of the hot season had prevented some fruit trees from bearing fruit, or the fruits that did grow were sour and unpalatable. Some wild vegetables had even dried up completely. This year marked the lowest yield of fruits and wild vegetables Wu Xiaoyin had seen in…

Wu Xiaoyin looked at Lei Lu carrying him as they walked along the wide path planned out by the tribe. He felt that Lei Lu's mood was a bit low. Wu Xiaoyin even forgot to look around the tribe and learn more about it. He nudged Lei Lu's shoulder and asked, "Lei Lu, what's wrong? Why are you unhappy?" Lei Lu was very happy to see the little female caring about him, but thinking about the little female's body made him feel down again. However, he had no intention of hiding anything from the little female…

Wu Xiaoyin watched as Xi was processing the giant cabbage, only to discover that it was at least ten times larger than normal cabbage. Xi broke open the giant cabbage and placed it in a stone basin to wash. After washing, he tore the giant cabbage into shreds and put it into the meat broth, then slowly stirred the shredded giant cabbage. Finally, a fresh vegetable aroma wafted through the pure meat broth. At the same time, Lei Yan's roasted meat was also finished. Xi called Wu Xiaoyin and Lei Lu. The four…

The day before the tribe chief set out with the team, the Giant Tiger Tribe welcomed friends from the Giant Wolf Tribe. The leader of the Giant Wolf Tribe, Li's father called Ge, who was also the chief of the Giant Wolf Tribe, brought along the beastmen of his tribe to return the animal meat they had borrowed last cold season. Given that the Giant Wolf Tribe was located in the far north, food was relatively scarce. The sudden extension of cold season by another month had forced them to seek help from the…

Wu Xiaoyin had no objections to this. He turned to look at Lei Lu who was holding him, indicating that it was up to him to decide. Lei Lu was quite pleased with this reliance from Xiao Xiao. He patted his little head and said, “Since Xiao Xiao has decided to share the methods for making the doors and beds with all friendly tribes, we should make a standard to avoid any issues happening from the quantity of traded goods.” Ge nodded in agreement at his words and signaled for Lei Lu to continue. “As…

“Of course not. I was wondering if you could go outside now. If you can, let’s go look for some pretty flowers to decorate Feng and Bin’s home,” Xiao Kai said with a longing look on his face. Wu Xiaoyin found Xiao Kai's enthusiasm amusing and replied, “It seems like you really want to pair up with Kos?” Xiao Kai quickly denied after hearing this, “How could that be? I’m not of age yet!” Wu Xiaoyin responded knowingly, “Really? Your expression doesn’t seem to say that.” Feeling…

As the priest Uncle Luo offered the powerful prey to the Beast God and distributed the blood that had been collected among the beastmen, Wu Xiaoyin felt sweat in his palms. He remembered that he had dried the Fran Orchid Xiao Kai gave him while Lei Lu was out and made flower tea this morning, hiding it in the cupboard. Thinking about that pot of scented tea eased his nerves. When he looked up, the pairing ceremony had already begun. There were over twenty pairs of tribe members participating in the…

The joyous atmosphere of the Harvest Festival quickly dissipated, leaving the entire tribe in silence, bewildered and at a loss. Wu Xiaoyin looked at the rooms and basement of his house filled with food and wasn't overly worried about food shortages. He was more worried about the future growth of plants and the migration of animals, but those worries could wait until next year's growth season. The main issue now was the exchange of information between various tribes during the Exchange Day and future…
