The kids were also very worried, but they didn't want to blame Huang Tian and make him feel even worse, so they just urged him to go back quickly.
Huang Tian secretly glanced at Hu Jiaojiao and the cubs, thinking that they hadn't noticed, and he felt relieved.
"I understand, Fairy Sister, thank you." He nodded obediently and went back with Hu Jiaojiao and the cubs.
Hu Jiaojiao prepared a large table of delicious food.
She has been busy during this period, but fortunately the cubs are sensible and don't cause her any worries at all.
She also wanted to make up for the care she had shown to the cubs recently.
Little Shitou is a lively boy. When he saw the delicious food in front of him, he was so greedy that his mouth was watering.
"Sister Jiaojiao, you are so amazing. The food you cook is much more delicious than that of Brother Manzi!" Little Stone couldn't help but say.
Single males lead miserable lives.
Little Shitou lives with Xieman and is almost like a little old man.
He had wanted to protest a long time ago.
Long Yao drooled along with him and said with bared teeth:
"My mother cooks the best food in the tribe!"
Long Yu and others all shook their heads. Xiao Wu and Xiao Shitou really had similar interests and could always talk to each other.
After hearing what Little Stone said, Hu Jiaojiao smiled and said, "If you like it, come back next time and I'll make it for you."
Little Shitou smiled silly and nodded, but he didn't really plan to come over for meals often. He didn't want Sister Jiaojiao to work so hard.
Huang Tian on the side seemed absent-minded, lowering his head without saying a word.
Hu Jiaojiao saw that Huang Tian was worried, so she picked up some food for him and the cubs and said softly:
"Eat it quickly, or it won't taste good if it gets cold."
After Hu Jiaojiao gave the order, the cubs started to move.
After the meal, it was already dark outside.
Hu Jiaojiao offered to send Xiao Shitou and Huang Tian back, but was rejected by the two.
She then took some snacks such as dried fruits and meat and asked the two to take them back, then watched them leave in the yard.
When Hu Jiaojiao came back, several cubs were spontaneously fetching water to wash in the yard.
Yin Cang was drawing water from the well, and Long Yu and others were queuing up with their own basins to get the water. The scene was orderly.
Recently, the kids want to do everything by themselves and don't let her interfere.
Hu Jiaojiao curled her lips in relief, and when she walked over, she found that the sleeves of several cubs were a little too short.
The cubs are growing as fast as the branches and leaves in spring.
They were still wearing last year's clothes. Lately she had been either busy or taking care of Ling'er and hadn't noticed this.
While the cubs were still resting, Hu Jiaojiao went back to the room and took out a tape measure. She called them all to the living room and measured their clothes one by one.
Several kids retreated to the back.
"Mother, the animal skins we have are still wearable. There is no need to make new ones."
Long Yu had a stern face, and there seemed to be some shadow of Long Mo between his eyebrows.
Long Xiu and Long Zhong also nodded.
"The hides we have on us will last a long time."
"How can an orc waste animal skins like this? We can just make some scraps of animal skins out of our clothes."
They were not afraid of wasting the animal skins, they were just making up an excuse because they didn't want Hu Jiaojiao to be too tired.
Even Long Yao, who was usually the dumbest, moved back and said in a serious and childish voice, "I, I listen to my elder brother!"
Yin Cang stood at the back, and although he didn't say anything, he responded with his actions.
Hu Jiaojiao put down the tape measure and sighed.
He looked at them helplessly and seriously, his tone unquestionable, pretending to be angry:
"Go and see whose cubs are wearing torn animal skins every day? Do you want them to think that I'm abusing you again and not giving you new animal skins to wear?"
Several kids quickly shook their heads.
"No mother, that's not what we meant."
"I just came here to measure the size. I'm running out of room for the animal skins at home. If you don't want to wear them, I'll give them to Xiao Shitou and the others."
Hu Jiaojiao said deliberately.
"We wear it!"
When the kids saw this, they immediately came over, fearing that their share would become someone else's.
With the cooperation of the cubs, Hu Jiaojiao measured the sizes smoothly and wrote them down one by one.
She used sheepskin and charcoal to record her measurements.
Long Yu watched her writing and drawing on it, his eyes full of curiosity, "Mom, what are you doing?"
He couldn't understand the meaning of the pattern above.
Some are very complicated, some are very simple.
Hu Jiaojiao took a look and saw that Long Yu was very interested in her records, so she explained:
"This is called writing. If there is something you cannot remember, you can write it down on a parchment scroll. Then when you forget it, you can take it out and look at it and you will know it."
"Words?" Long Yu's dark pupils slightly dilated, a little unbelievable, "There is such a magical thing."
They have become accustomed to some of their mother's weird things, and there is almost no need for Hu Jiaojiao to explain. They consciously let the Beast God take the scapegoat.
"Mother, can you teach me?"
Long Yu stared at the parchment scroll and asked hopefully.
The kids have never come across drawings before, so they don’t know these yet.
"Of course, Yu'er, do you want to learn?" Hu Jiaojiao was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Long Yu would be interested in this.
Before she taught the orcs to read blueprints, she had thought about popularizing writing in the tribe and teaching everyone to learn it, but it had been delayed.
Now, Long Yu reminded me.
"Yes! I want to learn." Long Yu nodded seriously.
"Okay, then mother will teach you some other day." Hu Jiaojiao agreed without hesitation.
She was originally worried that the cubs would not be interested in these things, but when she saw Long Yu being so enthusiastic, she felt relieved.
Now that the tribe is on the right track, it's time to develop.
If we want to develop civilization and change the backward situation, learning is the first step.
Long Zhong glanced at the two of them, curled his lips and said:
"What's the point of learning this, brother? Why are you learning this? In my opinion, you might as well practice hunting skills for a few more hours."
Hu Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes and looked at Long Zhong and the other cubs.
Long Zhong suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
Turning around, Hu Jiaojiao was staring at him with a smile, and said in a gentle voice:
"Not only Yu'er needs to learn, you should also come and learn with me. No cubs in the tribe can be left behind."
The cubs have the strongest learning ability, so she plans to build a school and let the cubs study first. After the cubs go back, they can also teach the orcs, killing two birds with one stone.
As soon as these words came out, Long Zhong immediately looked sad.
"Ah? Mom, can I not learn... These things look like tadpoles, I can't recognize them even if you kill me!"
Fox Jiaojiao smiled gently and shook her head, answering in an unquestionable tone:
"no."
She suffered a lot in her studies when she was in school.
When we get to the animal world, we must let the cubs here have the same experience.
Although Long Xiu and Yin Cang did not show any curiosity, they did not resist Hu Jiaojiao's suggestion at all.
Long Yao scratched his chin and grasped Hu Jiaojiao's sleeve in confusion:
"Mother, what is learning? Can you eat studying?"
