Chapter 216 Good Things Come in Pairs
Just one day later, something surprising happened again—the remaining two female members also successfully gave birth to adorable little beastmen.
However, unlike the previous time when Rouhe Miyue gave birth to only male cubs, this time Duo and Xue each gave birth to two delicate female cubs.
This situation is of great significance to the entire tribe, because it not only represents the arrival of new life, but more importantly, the birth of a brand new female in the tribe!
You should know that on the vast and boundless continent of the beastmen, females are beings that are cherished and protected by the beastmen.
Now that their tribe has suddenly gained two more female cubs, how could everyone not be overjoyed?
At this moment, the cave was filled with laughter and a happy atmosphere.
Wu, beaming with pride, cradled her tiny female cub in her arms, strolling around the cave like a joyful little bird, showing off: "Haha, look at my precious daughter! What do you think? I'm still the best, aren't I! Look, I even have such an adorable little female cub!"
Not to be outdone, Jay, holding his newborn female cub tightly, couldn't contain his joy and shouted, "Hmph, who doesn't have a little female cub? My Xue gave birth to one too, so why are you the only one who should be proud?"
For a moment, the two went back and forth, neither giving an inch, which amused the people around them, making them burst into laughter.
Just as everyone was immersed in joy, Elder Hui stepped forward.
"Don't be too happy yet. Although these two female cubs are the hope of our tribe, they are still very fragile and need to be taken good care of."
Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this.
So the whole tribe got busy.
Strong males go out to find the softest animal hides to make warm swaddling clothes for the young females; skilled females hunt far and wide for fresh and delicious prey to replenish the strength of the females who are weak after giving birth.
Wu and Jie became rivals, each believing that their little female cub would become the most beautiful and intelligent female in the tribe.
They joked with each other while carefully coaxing the baby in their arms.
At this moment, Rouhe Miyue came to visit with her male cub.
The little ones huddled together, waving their tiny paws, as if they too could feel the joyful atmosphere of the adults.
"Now that everyone has finished giving birth, it's time to find the leader to name the little ones." Miyue had a headache listening to everyone talking about little ones.
Rou laughed at Mi Yue's bitter expression. "Hurry up, Xing Du has been born for several days and already has a name. You guys are so careless, not even thinking of giving them a name first."
At this point, the females picked up their cubs and prepared to go to the leader to have them named.
Ruan Mianmian is currently discussing with Zhi the imperfections of the tribal system. They have discovered many problems after giving birth in the past few days.
As Ruan Mianmian saw Miyue and the people around her gradually approaching, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind: Since everyone is here, why not gather everyone together for an important meeting?
So she decided to do it without hesitation.
"Fellow tribesmen, assemble immediately in the center of the cave. The chief has something to say..."
Just then, Yu overheard the message conveyed by Ruan Mianmian. He had an idea and quickly used a magical ability that he had recently developed.
This powerful volume surge instantly reverberated throughout the cave, its effect quite similar to the loudspeakers used in later generations.
Upon hearing Yu's urgent notice, many orcs dropped what they were doing and quickly gathered from all directions of the cave toward the central hall.
"Is there something wrong with the leader calling a meeting at this time?"
"Perhaps they're planning to name those adorable newborn babies!"
"Who knows? But it's probably not going to be anything bad!"
Looking at those soft, cuddly little ones in their arms, I couldn't help but feel a longing in my heart. I really wanted to have my own little ones!
"Yes, it's a pity that there are so few females in the tribe!"
Amidst the chatter of the orcs, everyone gradually arrived at the central hall of the cave.
"Everyone, please be quiet!" Sen said, stopping them from talking once everyone had arrived.
Ruan Mianmian stood in the leader's position and looked at everyone, saying, "I've called everyone here today to announce a few things. The first thing is to name the newborn babies of the tribe."
As soon as she finished speaking, the females who had given birth to five babies all stood up with their own babies.
There are differences between beastmen and humans. For example, a newborn human probably only sleeps and cries.
But orcs are different; they can run and jump right after they are born.
Ruan Mianmian looked at them and smiled, saying, "The baby male cub that is one month old will be named Chen, which means hope and also represents cheerfulness and vitality. Xiao's cub will be named Xi, which also means hope and also contains good wishes. Li's cub will be named Guang, which represents light, beauty and hope."
When Miyue and the others heard that their baby had a name, they all knelt down with joy to thank the leader for bestowing the name upon him.
Duo and Xue looked anxiously at the leader, their eyes seeming to ask why they hadn't named their child.
Upon seeing this, Ruan Mianmian smiled and said, "The baby female born to Duo will be named Mei, hoping she will grow up beautifully. The baby female born to Xue will be named Ling, hoping she will be beautiful and intelligent."
Duo and Xue were both very pleased to hear this, especially Duo, who was particularly happy. In her opinion, her daughter being called Mei meant she was the most beautiful little female.
But Xue was also very happy. She believed that no matter how beautiful a female was, she couldn't compare to a leader who was smart and capable. Her daughter being named Ling meant she was the smartest little female—excellent!
Everyone was very satisfied with the name their leader had given their little orc, and the meaning was also very good. They all thanked their leader.
"Okay, now I'm going to talk about the problems that have been discovered in the past few days."
After expressing her gratitude, Ruan Mianmian pointed out some shortcomings of the tribe that she had recently discovered.
"First of all, I think the tribe needs a birthing room. What is a birthing room? It's a room used by females when they give birth. These past few days, there have been births in the tribe, and I think there's a lack of privacy and too much chaos."
As soon as Ruan Mianmian finished speaking, she received the support of the females, because what the leader said was simply excellent.
"Therefore, I have decided to expand the cave after the winter month and build a birthing room inside for the females who will give birth in the future. I will also prepare some soft animal hides and other production supplies inside."
This was thanks to all the orcs, so everyone said they would start building as soon as the weather warmed up.
"The third thing is that the tribe has a new rule: if a female in the tribe is about to give birth, her male will not take on any tasks until she has finished giving birth."
These past few days, while the females have been giving birth, the males have been patrolling outside. Putting herself in their shoes, Ruan Mianmian felt it would be better if someone were by her side.
Thunderous applause erupted in the cave once again; everyone thought this rule was truly wonderful!
"Leader! Leader!..."
Everyone shouted for their leader, and their faith in her had reached a new level!
Especially the females. The tribe used to say that females were precious, but no one ever put themselves in their shoes to think about them. Only the chief did!
"Alright, everyone, please be quiet for a moment. I'm about to announce the last benefit."
Ruan Mianmian gracefully raised her hand and waved it gently, signaling everyone to temporarily stop their excited discussion.
After the scene gradually calmed down, she continued, "The birth of new life means endless hope and a bright future for our tribe. Therefore, from today onwards, whenever a new life arrives in the tribe, every little beastman will receive a month's worth of steamed buns as a reward, one every day. At the same time, those females who have just given birth will also receive special care. A certain amount of milk and delicious canned meat will serve as nutritional supplements for their postpartum recovery. Of course, this special treatment will also last for a month."
Before Ruan Mianmian could finish speaking, the entire tribe erupted in cheers once again.
Many clansmen focused their attention on this new welfare policy, but the most eye-catching aspect was undoubtedly the steamed buns that newborn cubs would receive.
After all, those beastmen who had tasted this magical food knew all too well that this seemingly ordinary steamed bun actually contained enormous energy. It could not only effectively regulate the beastmen's functions and enhance their physique, but it was also an excellent source of energy.
If these newcomers were to eat such "miracle food" for a whole month, what amazing possibilities would their future growth hold?
It's unbelievable!
When these children grow up, their extraordinary talents and abilities will surely amaze everyone.
