"Really?"
Hearing this, a hint of hope appeared on Long Xiu's expressionless face.
He didn't hold out hope that his eyes could be cured, but... by listening to the sounds, he might be able to give it a try!
He didn't want to be a useless waste, and he didn't want to give up as long as there was a slight hope of helping everyone.
"Of course, mother won't lie to Xiuxiu. Xiuxiu believes mother, right?"
Fox smiled softly.
"Yeah." Long Xiu slowly tightened the slingshot in his hand and nodded cautiously.
For the first time, he realized that he was not completely hopeless. He suddenly felt that his life was full of energy and the dejection on his face disappeared.
"Xiu Xiu is so good." Hu Jiaojiao rubbed his little head and turned to look at the two palm-sized little fish brought back by the cubs.
Noticing Hu Jiaojiao's gaze, Long Yu felt a little embarrassed and said in a muffled voice:
"We caught two big ones today, but they threw them into the river and ran away..."
Otherwise, we could have had a big fish to eat today.
Long Zhong also quickly agreed, "Right! Don't underestimate us, we caught fish. Let's go again tomorrow. I will definitely catch a big fish and let you have a taste."
Hu Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing. She looked at them with a smile but said nothing.
Long Yu and Long Zhong suddenly felt their cheeks burning and felt extremely embarrassed. They wished they could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"It's okay. The fish is tender and delicious. Mom will kill it soon and roast it for you in the evening." Hu Jiaojiao said with a smile.
After thinking for a while, he added:
"You want to eat fish. I'll go to the river and catch some for you tomorrow."
It is unknown whether it was caught from the river or from space.
The five cubs' eyes lit up at the same time. The vicious female wanted to catch fish for them to eat!
"Mom, you are so nice! Ling'er loves you the most!" Long Ling'er rushed over happily, hugged Hu Jiaojiao's thigh and rubbed it.
The little girl is not even as tall as her waist. She has a soft and tender little carrot head. Some flesh has grown on her fair face. Now she finally looks not so thin. This makes Hu Jiaojiao feel a sense of accomplishment as a mother.
Long Yao even flew over and licked Hu Jiaojiao's face with his tongue to express his excitement and his love for the fish that Hu Jiaojiao... had caught.
Hu Jiaojiao smiled helplessly, hugged Long Yao and pulled him away, "Yao'er, you licked my face again. I've told you so many times not to lick me with your tongue..."
"Ah~" Long Yao whimpered, sticking out his tongue and breathing like a puppy. His excitement had not yet subsided, and he didn't hear what Hu Jiaojiao said at all.
Hu Jiaojiao held her forehead with her hand, and at this moment, she saw a huge black shadow flying in the sky.
Long Mo is back!
Hu Jiaojiao suddenly became nervous. Thinking of the upcoming task, she let go of Long Yao and asked the cubs to play with slingshots nearby. She then ran back to the cabin to get the "gift" she had carefully prepared for Long Mo.
Since she knew how harsh her original self was on Long Mo, she had to "behave well" in front of Long Mo and try to change his negative stereotype of herself as soon as possible.
When Long Mohuan landed in human form, he saw five cubs in the yard, holding a strange stick and gesturing at the tree.
Even Long Xiu, who had never liked sports, put down the wooden stick that he always held in his hand. He stood under a tree farther away from the other cubs, closed his eyes and listened quietly to something, holding the same wooden stick and a small stone in his hand.
Long Yao even wrapped a wooden stick with his tail and held a stone in his mouth, and flicked it out one after another. Although he never hit the target, he was having a lot of fun.
A strange expression appeared on Long Mo's originally gloomy and ugly face.
What are they doing
What's fun about a stick and a few stones
After being away from home for so long, am I unable to understand the hobbies of my kids
Just as I was wondering, Hu Jiaojiao ran out of the cabin.
He was holding a stack of brand new animal skin clothes in his arms.
"Long Mo, you're back." Fox smiled and trotted over, stopped in front of Long Mo, and looked up at the tall and handsome male in front of her.
Although she was tall, she looked extremely petite compared to the tall Long Mo, and she had to tilt her head back to see his face.
"What's the matter?" Long Mo asked in a low voice with a tense face and a blank expression.
Fox smiled tenderly, her eyes curved like crescent moons, and she took out the fur coat in her hand, shaking it open while saying:
"You've had a hard time on the road. I made you a new set of clothes, but I don't know if they will fit you. Try them on. If they don't fit, I can alter them."
As she spoke, she placed the unfolded animal skin clothes in front of Long Mo and measured carefully, trying to see if there was any obvious difference.
She looks like a good wife and mother.
When he saw the clothes in her hands, Long Mo's mind suddenly emerged with the scene he saw outside Ying Yuan's house. The clothes that Hu Jiaojiao took out were exactly the same as the ones Ying Yuan was wearing!
Long Mo thought again of the joking words those orcs said before they left.
He just felt a nameless fire in his heart, which made his whole face gloomy, and his sinister eyes were fixed on the clothes in her hands.
If his gaze could become reality, his clothes would have been cut into pieces by him.
This female actually gave him the same clothes that she gave to Ying Yuan. Was she trying to fool him
The clothes she made with so much effort were actually given to that guy Ying Yuan. It turned out that her previous behavior of not caring about Ying Yuan was all fake!
Looking at Hu Jiaojiao's smiling face, Long Mo felt it was extremely ironic. His sinister eyes were filled with disappointment and hostility. He raised his hand and coldly waved away Hu Jiaojiao's hand that was gesturing in front of him.
“Bang!”
With a loud bang, Hu Jiaojiao was thrown back a few steps, and the animal skin clothes in her hand fell to the ground with a "pop", covered with dust.
The five kids in the yard all looked over at once, their eyes wide open, looking at Long Mo with dissatisfaction.
Those are clothes made by my mother herself!
They got their clothes dirty and were sad for a long time. Dad actually threw Mom's clothes to the ground. It was really too much!
Hu Jiaojiao was also stunned.
"What are you doing..."
She hurried to pick up the animal skin clothes on the ground. The yard was still muddy, and the clothes fell to the ground and were immediately covered with a lot of dust.
Hu Jiaojiao looked distressed, carefully brushed off the dust on her clothes, and muttered:
"This is new clothing. I haven't worn it yet, but it's already dirty. If you don't like it, just tell me and I'll make you a new one."
She did not ignore Long Mo's ugly expression, and thought that he simply hated her just like what was written in the book, and that was why he reacted like that.
"No need to do it, I don't need it." Long Mo said coldly.
Since it was the same clothes as the one given to Yingyuan, she was not even willing to give him a perfunctory favor and make a different one.
It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t want it!
