Chapter 375: Chapter 375 - 374: Backing
Su Muyao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "You found out."
Sang Yao earnestly said, "Thank you, wife, for being willing to tell me this."
"With this kind of loom, weaving will be faster in the future."
After staying here for a few more days, Su Muyao had a feeling that she was about to leave this world.
She looked at Sang Yao and said, "Sang Yao, I feel that I may have to leave. If there’s something you want to do, I can accompany you to do it."
Hearing this, Sang Yao’s eyes trembled slightly, as a lot of reluctance surged in his heart.
He didn’t want her to leave, but he also knew that she would have to leave someday; she didn’t belong to this world.
He really, really wanted to keep her, but he also knew that he had neither the standing nor the right to keep her.
Realizing this, Sang Yao felt a bit of bitterness in his heart.
She was so good, he perhaps didn’t even have the right to be her true Beast Husband.
But being able to call her wife was already his extravagance.
At that moment, Sang Yao was actually a bit flustered, but he quickly suppressed his emotions and said, "Wife, could you accompany me back to pay respects to my father?"
In his heart, he had already regarded her as his true wife, so he wanted to take her to pay respects to his father.
Just consider it his extravagant wish.
"If it’s difficult for you, wife, you don’t have to go."
Su Muyao spoke up, "There’s no reason not to go. I’ll go with you."
"Anything you want me to accompany you in doing, just tell me."
Sang Yao was touched, and he said softly, "Why is my wife so good?"
She was so good to him, he really didn’t want her to leave.
In his selfishness, he even wanted the extravagance of becoming hers.
He wanted to offer himself to her.
But how could he say such a thing?
He feared that if he expressed it, she would reject him.
Yes, what right did he have to become hers?
Su Muyao, seeing Sang Yao like this, couldn’t help but think of her own beast husbands.
She couldn’t help but sigh and say, "Sang Yao, take care of yourself in the future, and learn to be kind to yourself."
"Make sure to live happily, and don’t let others bully you."
"Don’t weave endlessly day and night; make sure to rest more."
Sang Yao nodded and said, "Alright, I will listen to my wife."
Su Muyao felt his personality was too quiet and submissive.
She didn’t know if all members of the Golden Silkworm Clan were like this.
...
After some preparation, two days later, Su Muyao accompanied the Golden Silkworm back to his tribe to honor his father.
Since they were going to the Golden Silkworm Tribe, Su Muyao naturally wanted to bring more things.
Although she was leaving, she also wanted people to know that Sang Yao was very good, hoping his mother would pay more attention to him.
Sang Yao, seeing Su Muyao had prepared so many provisions, said, "Wife, you needn’t prepare so much."
"At home, people are usually indifferent to me."
They didn’t pay much attention to him; often at home, he was like an invisible person.
Su Muyao said, "Don’t worry, it’s nothing."
"I’m leaving you with much more."
Since realizing she was leaving, Su Muyao discovered she could take out some items from the space, which made her very happy.
So, she felt she could leave more for Sang Yao to ensure he could live well.
Listening to Su Muyao’s words, and looking at these items, Sang Yao felt his eyes get a bit warm.
He knew that when a wife accompanies her Beast Husband back home with many things, it represents the wife’s fondness and importance to the Beast Husband, to represent him well.
She was always so good.
He didn’t know how to repay her.
...
Now, as Yan Ran transformed into her fox form, Su Muyao took Sang Yao with her and arrived at the Golden Silkworm Clan after half a day’s journey.
The Golden Silkworm Clan lived among the mulberry trees, surrounded by a large stone wall with a gate, guards at the entrance, and many beastmen coming and going.
It looked particularly lively.
Sang Yao explained, "The Golden Silkworm Clan excels at spinning silk and weaving cloth. Many beastmen from various tribes come to exchange for fabric on normal days."
Su Muyao nodded; the Golden Silkworm Clan was more prosperous than she had imagined.
Sang Yao and Su Muyao walked over, and when the guards saw them, their expressions changed, and they quickly ushered them in.
Once inside the tribe, the busy Golden Silkworm beastmen were surprised at their presence.
"Sang Yao has returned."
"Isn’t that his wife with him?"
"I saw them when they got married, but something seems different now."
"Ah, that Fire Fox female looked terribly displeased back then, showing obvious disdain for Sang Yao, and treated Sang Yao’s family poorly."
"She didn’t visit even once before the marriage, clearly showing she didn’t like Sang Yao."
"To be precise, she didn’t like our Golden Silkworm Clan. In those beastmen’s eyes, we belong to the Insect Clan; they consider us lowly."
"High or low, they should stop using our Golden Silkworm Clan’s threads and stop using the fabric we weave if they really think so, since we don’t favor them either."
"The marriage was for the benefit of both tribes; our tribe and the Fire Fox Clan are close, and such a marriage benefits both tribes greatly..."
"Ah, poor Sang Yao, disliked by his wife and possibly marginalized in the Fire Fox Clan; he hadn’t returned once since the marriage, thought they’d never come back."
"He was the least favored, and with his father’s death, his mother sent him off..."
Discussing Sang Yao, everyone sighed and felt for him.
Listening to this, Su Muyao looked a bit displeased. She raised her eyes to Sang Yao, who appeared unaffected, seemingly accustomed to such comments.
She reached out to hold Sang Yao’s hand and said, "Don’t be sad."
Sang Yao shook his head and said, "No."
He wasn’t sad; actually, looking back, he was grateful for the union that allowed him to meet someone as wonderful as her.
Perhaps, after she left this world, he could live on with these beautiful memories.
Sang Yao’s home was at the northernmost part of the tribe, a relatively large wooden house.
Learning that Sang Yao and his wife had returned, the Sang Leader was surprised and quickly came out.
"Mother, my wife and I have come back to see you all."
Su Muyao smiled and said, "Mother."
The Sang Leader was nearly overwhelmed with joy and quickly invited them inside.
Once inside, the Sang Leader told the youngest son to pour water, and Su Muyao took out many items from her basket and more from her Space Ring.
Before long, when the Sang Leader’s other husbands and Sang Yao’s brothers came back and saw the items, they looked astonished.
The Sang Leader even doubted her eyes.
This son had a stubborn and silent personality, a nature she knew females wouldn’t like.
Moreover, when Yan Ran came, she showed no kindness to Sang Yao, coupled with their prejudice against the Golden Silkworm Clan, indicating definite dislike for Sang Yao.
But for the tribe’s sake, Sang Yao had to be sacrificed.
After sending the son away, she thought he wouldn’t return.
Unexpectedly, they came back within a few months.
Su Muyao, smiling, said, "Mother, it was thanks to you marrying Sang Yao to me; I find Sang Yao to be wonderful."
"He has a pure heart and still thinks of you all, so we prepared these things to bring over, hoping you won’t mind."
The Sang Leader came back to her senses, joy and excitement in her eyes, "How could I mind?"
"Sang Yao being liked by you is his honor."
With that, when the Sang Leader looked at Sang Yao this time, her eyes showed satisfaction and joy.
Never did she expect this son would bring such grace to her one day.
