When the bamboo rice dumplings were placed on the table one by one, the visiting young females finally believed that Ophelia was really treating them to rice.
Ophelia taught the females how to eat the bamboo rice dumplings and reminded them to be careful of the heat.
"This rice is so delicious! It's whiter than any rice I've ever eaten," one said.
"Yeah, and it has a fresh hint of bamboo. I can't believe it can be cooked like this," another agreed.
"I heard that Ophelia harvested a full two thousand catties from this batch of mature rice. That's more than the Mountain Goat Clan's harvest for two whole years!"
The young females chattered animatedly among themselves, while the males gathered around the bonfire to roast meat.
Seeing that everyone was almost done eating, Ophelia asked Tyler to light the bonfires near the pigpens, chicken coops, and rabbit hutches. As soon as the fires were lit, they drew the attention of everyone present.
"Are... are those pigs?"
