Hu Jiaojiao lifted the animal skin quilt and got out of bed.
It is not too cold in this season, and a thin animal skin like a blanket is enough to sleep at night. But as soon as winter comes, the temperature will drop sharply, and even ten animal skins may not keep you warm.
The ground had been cleaned up, and the torn animal skins that were on the ground in my memory were gone.
Thinking that Long Mo had packed these things while she was still asleep, Hu Jiaojiao's cheeks turned red.
Hu Jiaojiao opened the closet and took out some clean animal skin clothes to put on, but found that the blue and purple marks on her body could not be covered at all. She had to take another animal skin as a cloak to barely cover up the sinful color.
Dragging my aching body downstairs, I saw Long Yu, Long Xiu and Long Ling'er sitting in the living room with grim faces, looking exhausted.
The wailing sound just now came from Long Yao. He was rolling on the ground, holding his stomach.
He urged:
"Third brother, are you okay? Xiaowu can't hold it anymore..."
Long Zhong came back from the backyard, holding his stomach and hunched over. His face was as pale as a piece of paper, and he answered in a weak voice.
"alright… "
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly straightened up, turned around and ran away with a bitter face.
"No, my stomach hurts again. Xiaowu, please bear with it for a while."
After saying that, he quickly ran to the toilet outside the backyard.
"Wow! Xiaowu can't hold it anymore!" Long Yao suddenly wailed, got up from the ground, turned into a beast and rushed into the grove outside the door.
Not long after the two of them left, the "gurgling" sound was heard in the living room again. The three cubs' faces changed and they ran towards the grove outside the backyard.
I couldn't wait for the toilet, so I had to find another place to go.
As soon as Hu Jiaojiao went downstairs, she saw a few cubs running past her like a gust of wind, barking non-stop.
"What's going on?" Hu Jiaojiao looked suspicious.
Long Mo was cleaning up the "crime scene" in the backyard when he heard someone coming downstairs. He washed the dishes used by the kids and put them in the basin, then got up and went into the house.
"Jiaojiao, you're awake."
Seeing the female in front of him, Long Mo's cold eyes turned into a pool of autumn water, and his voice unconsciously filled with doting.
"Well... I'm awake." Hu Jiaojiao turned around and saw Long Mo's stern face. An ambiguous picture unconsciously emerged in her mind. Her voice was as light as a feather.
Even though Hu Jiaojiao had covered most of her skin with animal skins, Long Mo still saw the traces of her concealment.
"I'm sorry, did I hurt you yesterday?" Long Mo walked over slowly, his tone soft and apologetic.
“Ahem!”
This is not a good question to ask!
Hu Jiaojiao was choked by her own saliva, covered her throat and coughed for a long time before turning her head away in embarrassment.
How should she answer
If he says yes, isn't that admitting that he was very strong last night? If he says no, isn't that implying that he is incompetent in some way
No matter how you answer, it's a trap.
Seeing that Hu Jiaojiao didn't say anything, Long Mo thought she was angry because of being "injured". A trace of guilt suddenly appeared on his cold face, and he still apologized seriously.
"I'm sorry, I'll be gentler next time. I didn't know female skin was so delicate."
As he spoke, his eyes glanced at the skin beneath Fox Jiaojiao's fur intentionally or unintentionally.
Feeling his gaze, Hu Jiaojiao pulled the animal skin on her body closer, cleared her throat, and answered in a nonchalant way:
"I'm... because it's a bit cold today, so I put on more clothes, yes, cold..."
I really want to dig a hole in the ground...
"Is it cold?"
Long Mo looked at the sun outside the house suspiciously.
"It's cold." Hu Jiaojiao didn't want to argue with him about this embarrassing issue anymore, so she nodded quickly, looked away and changed the subject.
"By the way, what happened to the cubs? I think there seems to be something wrong with them."
"Nothing." Long Mo raised his hand to cover the corner of his mouth. He did not answer Hu Jiaojiao's question. He asked her gently, "Are you hungry? I'll make it for you..."
Before he could finish his words, Long Mo suddenly remembered the reactions of the five cubs after they ate the food he made, and paused again.
This question didn’t seem very good. He couldn’t let Jiaojiao feel uncomfortable after eating his food.
So he changed his words:
"I'll get you some fruit."
Hu Jiaojiao nodded, her soft voice tinged with a hint of hoarseness, "Okay."
After tossing and turning all night, her stomach was now empty and she was indeed hungry.
Although she was drunk, she could not remember the specific process clearly, but she vaguely remembered that it was already dawn before she fell asleep. She even remembered the chirping of birds outside the window.
As a result, she had to hold the handrail every time she went down the stairs today.
I have to say, the orcs' physical strength is really good.
Long Mo quickly went to the food storage warehouse and took out some fruits. Part of the food in the warehouse was sent by the clan leader, and part of it was stored by him during this period of time.
Ever since he discovered that Fox Jiaojiao liked to eat sweet fruits, he would pick some fruits every time he hunted, resulting in a lot of fruits piling up in the warehouse.
Long Mo washed the fruit before bringing it to Hu Jiaojiao. But as soon as he entered the door, Long Yao came back and hugged her legs to tell her something.
"Wuwuwu, mother, father bullied us while you were sleeping..."
The little guy's eyes were tearful, and his ruby-like eyes were filled with tears, making him look pitiful.
Her usually rosy face looked a little pale today, making her look even more aggrieved.
"What's wrong, Yao'er?" Seeing Long Yao looking so aggrieved, Hu Jiaojiao picked him up with heartache.
As soon as I picked him up, I smelled a strange smell.
It smells a bit... like an unflushed toilet.
"cough."
Before Long Yao could say anything, Long Mo put his hand to his lips, cleared his throat, and walked over.
His gaze drifted towards Long Yao indifferently, but there was a hint of warning in his nonchalant eyes.
As if to say: You'd better know what to say and what not to say.
It’s a pity that Long Mo was too confident.
Long Yao flattened his mouth, jumped to the ground, hugged Hu Jiaojiao's calf tightly, hid behind her, and looked at Long Mo vigilantly with his red little eyes as if he was looking at an enemy.
If you didn’t know, you would think he was guarding against thieves and robbers.
"snort!"
He wrinkled his nose and snorted at Long Mo. He was no longer the Long Yao of yesterday!
He is now a beast with a backer!
The small triangular tail stood up high, higher than the head, and looked quite arrogant.
"Mom, Dad forced us to eat the poisonous food he made. It made us have stomachaches and diarrhea. Xiaowu's stomach was empty!"
Long Yao opened his mouth and complained loudly, fearing that if his voice was too soft, Hu Jiaojiao would not be able to hear him clearly.
Hearing Long Yao's words, Long Mo's face darkened visibly.
This little bastard.
He actually dared to complain in front of him.
The other four cubs also came back one after another, holding their stomachs. Seeing their looks, it was obvious with just a little thought that what Long Yao said was the truth.
“Mother, Father is glaring at me…” Long Yao shivered and hid back again.
