Hu'er didn't say anything. She was too shocked to even say a thing. She never thought there was such a thing that happened. Nor that she knows if that's the truth behind her transferring to this world.
What made it more shocking is that someone also had the same experience as her or maybe similar. But based on what Jiu Hu said, it's already old and blurry. That person might not be alive anymore. She is not sure as the lifespan of the place she is in is different.
She also couldn't ask him. It's as if something is stopping her from speaking, from telling Jiu Hu the truth. However, Jiu Hu has already confirmed it in his mind. As Hu'er expression has said it all.
Jiu Hu didn't push her to talk. Instead, he changed the subject and recounted the scenes where they bonded together, learned things, eating, exercising, learning skills, and other things.
"So, we did quite a lot." Jiu Hu laughed, "But still I feel like it was just yesterday when you were so little. Now you are going to be an adult. I'll give you my blessings."
Jui Hu pursed his lips and closed his eyes. It's hard for him to accept that their little girl will now soon have her own family. Although, they have been preparing for this moment the day she was welcomed… Still the feeling of reluctance to let her go is there.
"Dada…" Hu'er muttered. Jiu Hu looks at her and smiles, assuring her that he is fine.
Hu'er is tearing up. She never has experienced being loved and cared for so much. To have a father that will give her blessings when getting married. She never even thought of getting married back then. Now that she has a chance she definitely wants to experience it. But looking at her Dada who is reluctant to let her go… Hu'er feels complicated.
Jiu Hu sighed and looked through her eyes. "Being a female isn't just about giving birth. Don't learn from others, don't look down on yourself, and think about it as someone who only gives birth.
Being a female holds responsibility, as a mate, a partner, a mother, a warmth, and the hope of the tribe.
Without females, we beastmen can only grow old and watch the tribe vanish. Beastmen have already wronged females once, and we knew the consequence of lacking females to continue our line. So there will still be someone who will live in the future.
Females have also grown into much more capable beings. Just like females in our tribe, just like you. Many ideas, creativity, and improvements have been made because of you and the rest of the females. Females are also capable of what we are capable of.
I will be honest with you and won't trick you. As a female, the mates will protect you, care for you, feed you, satisfy you, and serve you but it doesn't mean you can look down on them. Your mate will be the pillar of your life. Every time you treat them badly, cracks will appear. They might not betray or cheat on you, but they won't care or give you the affection that you should have.
We have our pride. We have a heart. We also have a life. What can give you, is something we voluntarily do because of our environment, situation, and the rules of life.
Treat the beastmen well and they would treat you more than you ever expected.
You might see and watch other females treat their mates badly and still have a good life but please look at how those beastmen see their mates. They would look at their mates as someone who is just part of their life and not someone who is their life.
Beastman was given greater strength than females.
You need them to protect you from the danger of the world, from wild animals, from bad beastmen, and even to bad females. You need them to protect you when you're weak, especially the day you conceived a cub or a little female.
Sometimes… you will need their body to get warmth from the cold and be full in winter…
I… It's not my position to say this but I hope you won't use your mates as rations. I know that you have promised Jia Ting already and know you wouldn't do such a thing. But I still want to say it.
Please come to us and not be shy to take our food. Beastmen, even when old, can live for ten days without eating and still have a little strength to hunt small wild animals to eat and can live two hundred days just by drinking water.
We can give you food that we have when you're lacking even if your mates would voluntarily give it to you.
I know you have your own ideas. But when you really need to eat your mates' food and our rations, don't reject it. You are very important to us. Even if we starve, it will be fine. Our body can easily heal but the female body is relatively weak and wouldn't be able to heal faster than us beastmen. Sometimes it would cause death.
There will be a lot of situations, problems, and new things that you will encounter once you get a mate. Just believe in yourself and your mate. If you need us, we are here to help you out.
Hu'er, Dada, your Daddies love you very much, we care for you and will always protect you. We hope that you will be happy, and live well.
May the Beast God bless you. Make more cubs and little females." Jiu Hu caresses her hair. His eyes are full of affection.
Hu'er giggled "Thank you, Dada," she muttered and leans towards his hand.
Someone suddenly knocked on the door and shouted, "Are you guys done? Don't let Hu'er starve."
"Your brother," Jiu Hu shook his head with a helpless smile.
Hu'er looks at him confused. "It's Jiu Su, Shun Su's dad."
"Oh." Hu'er nodded and remembered his face.
"Are you still there?" He knocked again.
Jiu Hu shouted back, "We're here and done."
