Long Xiu took his hand back and shrugged, "Brother, guess how long it would take her to find out if your hand was broken."
Long Yu thought of Hu Jiaojiao's frown and immediately shook his head, subconsciously hiding one hand behind his back.
"Let's go home."
He supported Long Xiu, and the two of them tacitly stopped talking and walked home in silence.
However.
Not long after the two left.
The towering tree that had been hit by Long Yu's punches thousands of times suddenly began to show signs of cracking, starting from the highest branch at the top of the tree.
"Click, click..."
The two inconspicuous cracks were like wavy lines, slowly extending downwards for dozens of centimeters and then stopped.
…
evening.
After Hu Jiaojiao sent away the orcs who were building the stone house, she started to cook dinner.
The progress of the stone house was faster than she had imagined. In two days, the foundation only needed the finishing work. She even felt that if Long Mo was here, the foundation might have been completed today.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but Hu Jiaojiao felt that when she explained the structure of the stone house to them, several orcs understood it immediately. Their brains, which were stubborn yesterday, seemed to be enlightened today.
If we continue like this, the stone house may be built in less than a month.
Seeing that the cubs were listless, Hu Jiaojiao made their favorite grilled fish for dinner.
Sure enough, when the kids sat down at the table, they immediately became energetic, their eyes were shining, and their appetites increased when they saw the grilled fish.
Even Long Xiu smelled the aroma of grilled fish and couldn't help licking his lips.
Seeing the reactions of the cubs, Hu Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing. It seemed that she was not raising a dragon cub or a fox cub, but a litter of kittens, who were arrogant, cold and loved to eat fish.
The grilled fish just served on the table was steaming hot, exuding the aroma of minced garlic and fish meat, which made Zizi couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
Long Yao even put his entire head on the edge of the table, his eyes shining, his mouth open and breathing out, leaving a wet pool of saliva on the table...
The kids couldn't eat spicy food, so Hu Jiaojiao only added a little bit of peppercorns to the dish she made for them to enhance the flavor, and added spicy flavor to her own dish. Unexpectedly, when Long Yao inhaled, he choked.
Saliva is flowing directly from the eyes...
"Hahahaha! Xiaowu, why are your eyes drooling too?"
"Xiao Wu, let you be greedy..."
Long Linger held her belly and laughed. Long Yu, who was standing by, reached out to help Long Yao wipe his "tears" and moved his chair away from the table. "Don't get too close. The smell of mother's fish chokes my throat."
I also wiped the saliva on the table.
When Hu Jiaojiao brought the last dish, she saw that Long Yao's eyes were red and he looked aggrieved, greedy but afraid to get close.
"What's going on?" Fox Jiaojiao asked with a smile, while putting steamed eggs in front of the cubs, giving each cub a bowl of steamed eggs. If they were too salty, they could have a bite to quench their thirst.
"Xiaowu was greedy and choked by the spicy food." Long Linger explained with a gloating look, waving her short legs.
Foxy Long Yao is so afraid of spicy food that he can't even smell it.
He moved his portion of grilled fish a little further away and coaxed Long Yao softly, "It's ready now, Yao'er, come and eat."
Long Yao moved his little black nose and smelled the aroma of the steamed egg. He immediately stopped sitting on the chair and flew to the bowl, looking at Hu Jiaojiao eagerly.
"Eat quickly, it's all yours."
Hu Jiaojiao smiled and nodded. After hearing her words, the cubs started to eat.
Long Yao was the first to bear the brunt. He rolled up the spoon with his tail and put it into his mouth one bite after another. He preferred the soft and tender steamed egg to the grilled fish.
"Awoo, awoo~" What a great time!
His little red eyes narrowed into slits of happiness. After taking a few bites, he felt the spoon was uncomfortable.
Just use a spoon to stir the bowl to separate the egg from the bowl, then put it directly into your mouth.
"Slurp, slurp~"
In comparison, Long Xiu ate slowly. He was afraid of getting oil stains and steamed egg on his clothes, so he was very careful and caught each bite with his left hand.
Long Yu and Long Zhong picked up the meat from the fish belly and gave it to Long Linger. The meat and bones in the fish belly can be easily separated and will not get stuck in the throat.
The five cubs ate happily.
The first day without daddy, it's great~
After dinner, the cubs washed up and went back to their rooms to rest. Hu Jiaojiao took the pots and bowls to the river to wash them as usual. When she came back, she found a dark shadow in the cabin.
"Yao'er? Why are you here?"
Hu Jiaojiao walked closer and saw that it was Long Yao, with a big belly, rolling around on her bed.
"Ah..."
Long Yao cried out weakly, and immediately curled up like a mosquito coil, with his neck retracted into his body, revealing only a pair of red animal eyes, looking extremely uncomfortable.
Hu Jiaojiao was startled and hurried over.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Oh~" Long Yao nodded and shook his head.
Hu Jiaojiao didn't plan to ask anything from Long Yao. She reached out and touched its head, which was surprisingly hot.
"Why is it so hot? It was fine when I was eating just now." She frowned and quickly took out a cooling patch from the space and put it on Long Yao's forehead.
I wiped its body again with alcohol.
The little guy was listless. While he was being wiped, he lay there motionless like a salted fish, rolling over in discomfort from time to time. Once he was done wiping, he would curl up his whole body again, as if on guard.
The little guy must be feeling uncomfortable, so he came to her.
Hu Jiaojiao felt distressed, but even though she was in pain, she didn't say a word.
But why did Long Yao suddenly have a fever
"Did he have a bad dinner?" She touched the little guy's round belly hidden under his body and shook her head again.
If you eat something bad, you should have diarrhea.
The little guy's belly is so round, but he doesn't look like he has a stomachache.
Just when Hu Jiaojiao was thinking about whether to go see the old veterinarian, the voices of the cubs suddenly came from outside the house.
"Xiaowu, where have you been!"
"Xiaowu, come out quickly and stop playing."
"Mother! Oh no, Xiaowu is missing..."
The cubs' voices came from far away and gradually approached. It sounded like they had gone out to look for Long Yao but couldn't find her, so they had no choice but to come look for her.
With red eyes, Long Linger poked her head out to look at Hu Jiaojiao. She was about to speak anxiously when she suddenly saw Long Yao lying in front of Hu Jiaojiao.
"Xiaowu?"
The anxious, crying voice suddenly stopped, and Long Linger turned around and shouted happily to her brothers: "Big brother, second brother, third brother, Xiaowu is not lost, Xiaowu is with mother!"
As soon as the words fell, three small figures rushed in quickly.
"Xiao Wu, what's wrong with you?" Long Yu frowned and looked at Long Yao who was in pain.
"What did you do to Xiaowu!" Long Zhong's face was gloomy. He pulled off the strange fever-reducing patch on Long Yao's head and said angrily to Hu Jiaojiao.
Looking at Long Yao's painful expression, his mind couldn't help but recall the shadow deep in his heart when his face was burned, which made him subconsciously think that Hu Jiaojiao was going to torture them again.
Just at this moment.
Long Linger approached Long Yao, her eyes suddenly widened, and she exclaimed in surprise:
"Xiaowu is fine, Xiaowu is about to transform!"
