Chapter 219: The Marriage with Dick (4)
Spring is fading.
The spring sunshine is particularly lovely.
The sunlight came in and was divided into many blocks of white light by the lattice windows.
The big round bed is very spacious and can accommodate several people to rest at the same time.
But at this time, Dick, hugging Xiaomo, only occupied a small part of the big bed.
Dick woke up first.
Xiaomo sensed it as soon as his body moved.
She opened her eyes too.
Looking at the mess below and around me, I knew how crazy they were last night.
Dick seemed to realize it as well and looked at Xiaomo with a smile.
Xiaomo closed her eyes and pretended not to see anything.
It was so embarrassing that the quilt under her and Dick was almost completely wrinkled.
The pillow on the bed was thrown under the bed.
The point is, Dick is crazy, but Xiaomo, as a female, doesn't seem to care about her image.
Just thinking about all those fancy poses last night makes me blush.
Dick knew Xiaomo was awake, and he felt shy and didn't want to open his eyes.
He covered Xiaomo with a quilt, tidied the sheets and pillows, got up from the bed and went to cook for Xiaomo.
Xiaomo must be tired after being busy for most of the night yesterday.
Just let her sleep a little longer.
The snake tribe is not like the lion tribe, which has too many pair-forming rituals.
The first day of their wedding was quite grand, and the rest of the time was for the Snake King and the Queen to spend time together alone.
Dick liked this simple ceremony very much.
He can spend more time with Xiaomo.
Dick prepared the meal and came over to call Xiaomo.
Xiaomo had woken up a long time ago, but she was hiding under the thin blanket, watching Dick busy cooking.
It seemed like she had only started to look closely at Dick's appearance yesterday.
Long light blue hair, light blue eyes, and a slightly thin but very flexible waist.
He looked like an elf from the forest.
The facial contours are clear and stylish, the nose is high, and the eyelashes are curled. Because of the sunlight, shadows are cast on the smooth cheeks.
The young snake king's skin is even more delicate than Xiaomo's.
Dick saw Xiaomo looking at him, put down the food in his hand and walked over.
"Ha, Xiaomo, I saw you looking at me," Dick was much more confident after yesterday's battle, "Do you think I'm pretty?"
"Well, not only is it good-looking," Xiaomo said with a smile, "it's also very skilled and has great endurance..."
"Are you praising me, or do you want me to come more often?" Dick smiled and tried to lift the thin blanket on Xiaomo's body. "This time it wasn't me who took the initiative. Someone seduced me..."
Xiaomo covered herself with the quilt, refusing to let Dick touch her.
Dick seemed to be joking with Xiaomo. He took her clothes and helped her put them on.
It feels so good to be served by someone.
"Dick," Xiaomo stood up, "After breakfast today, let's go take a look at the land by the lake."
"It's only the second day after we got married, why did you want to go there?" Dick asked, "Weren't you tired last night?"
"Hee, I'm a little tired," Xiaomo said to Dick with a smile, "But it doesn't matter, there are people who are more tired than me."
"I'm only a little tired," Dick joked with her, "I still have a lot of energy left to use. If you don't believe me, you can try again."
"I believe it, I believe it," Xiaomo smiled and ran to the dining table, "Let's eat first, I'm starving."
"Well, let's eat first," Dick said. "Xiaomo, are you going to the fields over there by the lake to see how to grow crops this year?"
"Yes," Xiaomo nodded and praised Dick with a smile, "You understood as soon as I said it, Dick, you are really smart."
How to grow crops this spring will affect the snake tribe’s harvest in autumn.
Before Dick, many snake orcs left their territory and the land became deserted.
Xiaomo wants to count how much wasteland there is, and then calculate it together with the land on this side of the lake, and distribute it to the orcs according to the area, so that they can eat the food they grow this autumn.
The good grain is saved as seeds and waits for planting next year.
Only in this way can a virtuous cycle be established.
"Xiao Mo, you are such a competent princess," Dick said with a doting look on his face, "My sweetheart, you are perfect in every aspect."
Just on the second day after they got married, Xiao Mo went to the wet fields to check on the orcs' spring plowing. Even the snake king Dick felt that he was not that diligent.
"It's mainly because this matter is quite important," Xiaomo said with a smile, "I will be going to the Eagle Tribe in a few days, and I am in a hurry. I have to finish what I need to do before I leave."
Dick already has absolute power in the Snake Clan.
However, the power of the beast kings should not be for themselves, but to protect the people and let them live a stable and happy life.
Xiaomo believes that Dick will definitely make any sacrifice for his people.
But he is still young and has no more experience in governing the snake tribe.
Although Xiaomo doesn't know a lot, she came from a more advanced modern society, so her knowledge is always deeper than Dick's.
Upon hearing that Xiaomo was going to the Eagle Tribe in a few days, Dick suddenly felt inexplicably sad.
No matter how much he loved her or how reluctant he was to let her go, after seven days, Xiaomo would become the princess of Eagle King Jiayi.
The relationship between Dick and Eagle King Gai is probably the closest among the beast kings.
Gai once took him in without hesitation when he was in trouble.
In this way, he had the opportunity to become the Snake King again.
However, he still felt sad when he heard Xiaomo say this.
Happy times are always so short.
Xiaomo saw Dick's loss.
Just like Artis' expression before she came to the snake tribe.
Does she like Artis?
Definitely like it.
Do you like Dick?
Like it too.
She has a life different from other girls, but she cannot belong to any one male beast.
Perhaps, everything has its two sides.
At least, she is happy now.
She also didn't want Dick to be sad.
Xiaomo took Dick's hand and hugged his neck.
"Dick, now is the couple ceremony. After a while, we will be together again," Xiaomo said with a smile, "I promise you, I will try my best to finish all the things today, and I will accompany you for the next five days, okay?"
Xiaomo’s smile is more beautiful than spring flowers.
Of course Dick couldn't refuse.
Feeling wronged like this seems to make one appear to be very narrow-minded.
"Xiao Mo, I'm just a little sad. You're leaving in a few days." Dick also put away the gloom on his face and said with a smile, "Anyway, after the beast kings' mate ceremony, I'll go wherever you want to go."
"So, we have to make plans for the whole year now," Xiaomo smiled, "Only when the planting and breeding work is done well, the beastmen will have no worries. Dick, as the snake king, can you be at ease with me."
