Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!-Chapter 267: A Bold Idea

"My little brother is molting."

The Water Python playfully coiled around Bai Xiqin’s wrist.

The Water Python felt the Giant Python’s gaze was a bit strange, carrying a kind of maternal glow.

But the Water Python was quite optimistic about this little brother.

After all, it was the only kindred spirit.

Qin Yuan and Taowu glanced eagerly at Bai Xiqin’s other wrist, a hint of regret flashing in their eyes.

They also wanted to coil around their master’s wrist!

"Molting?"

Bai Xiqin was taken aback, closed her eyes slightly, and immediately "saw" the Giant Python motionless on a tree.

The space seemed etched in Bai Xiqin’s sea of consciousness, as long as she paid attention, she could see every herb and tree in the space.

Bai Xiqin walked towards the tree where the Giant Python was coiled.

Seeing Bai Xiqin leaving, Taowu and Qin Yuan decisively trotted to follow her steps.

The Water Python was coiled around the master’s wrist; they couldn’t let it hog all the affection!

At the very least, they needed to make more appearances in front of their master!

Soon, Bai Xiqin saw the tree she had seen in her sea of consciousness.

The Giant Python’s tail had broken once, and it seemed it wouldn’t make it, but fortunately, the Spiritual Spring Water and air in the space had great healing properties for animals.

Plus, the Giant Python took the Water Python as its son, so the grief of losing a child eased considerably, and thus, its condition improved greatly.

Bai Xiqin arrived at a peach tree.

The peach tree was dug out from the orchard in Baiyang Village before the apocalypse.

The bark was wrinkled, but the branches and leaves were extremely lush.

The peach tree was already quite old, and after nurturing it in the space for a while, the branches and leaves became even more vigorous, with vibrant green leaves densely packed with juicy large peaches.

The peach’s fragrance permeated the air, making one subconsciously drool.

Beneath the dense fruit and green leaves, a colorful Giant Python lay motionless, coiled above the peach tree’s branches.

The Giant Python’s body had slight wrinkles, occasionally twitching as if it could soon shed the layer of wrinkled skin it was encased in.

The molting had begun.

Bai Xiqin moved her fingers, and a prepared white-feathered chicken flew out from the warehouse, landing quietly near the Giant Python’s head.

Molting consumed a lot of energy, so it was better to replenish it.

"Master, why give my little brother such a large chicken?"

The Water Python flicked its red tongue, staring intently at the chicken.

It subconsciously swallowed some saliva.

The chicken was raised in the space, then slaughtered and stored.

Animals raised in the space had exceptional taste.

Even though the master had never skimped on its food, feeding it chicken stew with mushrooms every other day.

It was still craving.

"It’s molting, so I’m giving it a boost," Bai Xiqin said.

"Do you only give it when molting?"

The Water Python suddenly had a bold idea.

"...Yes." Bai Xiqin watched the three little beasts’ sparkling eyes, adding, "Even if you’re not molting, you can still have it."

Don’t molt every day just to get chicken.

Peeling off your own skin for no reason, just thinking about it makes me ache.

Really afraid they’d all start molting at once!

The Water Python molting was acceptable, after all, it was a snake.

But Taowu and Qin Yuan weren’t!

"Master, I can actually molt too."

Taowu gave Bai Xiqin a grotesque smile, scraping the ground with its thick paws.

It also suddenly had a bold idea.

"Master, I can molt too!" Qin Yuan quickly shouted.

Qin Yuan and Taowu had sneaky glints in their eyes, seemingly scheming a glitch in the system.

Just a layer of skin to shed!

After all, you won’t die, though it’s a bit painful.

But can’t let the Water Python become the star of the show!

Under no circumstances can you let the Water Python hog all the affection!

"No, no need, you’re fine as you are."

Bai Xiqin’s face twitched, and before the three little beasts could start planning any glitches, three whole slaughtered chickens appeared before them.

"Eat up! They’re for you!"

Bai Xiqin exuded generosity.

Hopefully, it wouldn’t turn into a large-scale peeling scene.

"Wow! Master! I love you so much!"

Taowu, Qin Yuan, and the Water Python’s eyes lit up instantly, quickly grabbed the chicken meat in front of them, and ran off.

The Water Python and Qin Yuan were small, yet effortlessly dragged chicken much larger than themselves, heading slowly in Bai Zhengxuan’s direction.

Bai Zhengxuan was excellent at cooking.

Especially the braised pig’s trotters, a delicacy.

Now with the chicken provided by the master, they couldn’t wait for the master’s grandpa to cook chicken for them!

Chicken stew with mushrooms, without the mushrooms.

Just thinking about it makes one drool.

Seeing the three little beasts leave, Bai Xiqin silently wiped her sweat.

Really afraid these guys would start a horror show for food!

With the three little beasts sorted out, Bai Xiqin began to harvest fruit.

Standing in place, she perfectly combined her control power with her mastery of space.

One by one, the ripe fruits and vegetables traced a beautiful arc from the ground and trees, flying into rows of metal warehouses.

Neatly categorizing and arranging them.

The space had perfect preservation, with no signs of rot in the fruits no matter when they were picked, remaining as fresh as when they were first harvested.

Crops like wheat and rice were too cumbersome to harvest using control power, so Bai Anhai drove the harvester, collecting them all at once.

Time-saving and labor-saving.

The number of warehouses in the space kept increasing, and even with a lot of metal sheets stored, it wasn’t enough for building those warehouses.

The supply of metal sheets for constructing warehouses was declared exhausted.

The well-stocked warehouses made the Bai Family feel incredibly secure, with a surplus of grain in hand, there was no panic!

After harvesting the fruits, Bai Xiqin fetched several large glass jars.

She began making fruit wine.

Bai Xiqin had made it before; wine brewed with Spiritual Spring Water was extraordinarily refreshing.

The whole family enjoyed drinking it.

More Yang Mei Wine and grape wine were made, as Liu Jing and Wang Yiyun particularly enjoyed them.

Whenever Liu Jing and Wang Yiyun were about to go berserk, Bai Zhengxuan and Bai Anhai would come running to Bai Xiqin for help.

The fruit wine instantly extinguished Liu Jing and Wang Yiyun’s flames of indignation.

Seeing Bai Xiqin brewing fruit wine, Bai Zhengxuan stopped cooking for the eager three little beasts, and Bai Anhai stopped harvesting wheat and rice.

They all rushed to Bai Xiqin’s side, eagerly watching her operating process.

Learning more to be non-abusive husbands in the future.

Attempting to raise their status a little bit.

Leng Yebai and Bai Yifan, the two men at the lowest rung in the Bai family’s life.

They were currently washing clothes.

The space had a washing machine and plenty of electricity.

But everyone still believed hand washing was cleaner.

Anyway, there were plenty of people to wash clothes, so why not!

Taowu glanced at Bai Zhengxuan, no longer cooking chicken for them, and decisively lay beside Leng Yebai and Bai Yifan.

Eyes fixed on their actions.

As a fierce beast that looked gentle, it decided to reinforce its skills.

Washing clothes, it could do.

Only now, people had too many fussy requirements, not like before when just rinsing in water was enough.

Taowu’s two front paws followed Bai Yifan and Leng Yebai’s movements, scraping the ground continuously.

By the time the two finished washing clothes, a deep pit appeared where Taowu had been scraping...

Qin Yuan swiftly flew to a cherry tree, snatched a big cherry, ate the cherry flesh, and tossed the pit into the hole Taowu had dug.

...Not sure if this move was enough to gain the master’s favor?
