"Grandpa Lin."
Long Yao blinked and shouted.
"My father is very powerful. You must be strong and healthy so that you can wait for my father to come back."
Long Yao has grown a lot taller than before, and still looks about the same size as an ordinary cub, but he still has baby fat on his face, and his pair of pure eyes are hard to ignore.
Hearing his words, Hu Lin was immediately amused and burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! You are such a sweet talker, little brat."
The rough man temperament in him could no longer be hidden.
He raised his hand and wanted to slap Long Yao on the butt.
This is a sign of the elders’ affection for the cubs.
Well, only Hu Lin.
When Long Yao saw the slap, he immediately remembered the fear of being dominated by power on the Thunder River. He suddenly covered his butt and took several steps back.
He stretched out another hand to separate the two of them.
The little face said seriously:
"Grandpa Lin, Xiaowu doesn't like the way you like Xiaowu. Can you try to like Xiaowu in a different way?"
Hu Lin: “…”
Fox Jiaojiao: "..."
What is this little guy saying that they can’t understand
"What's your favorite way?" Hu Lin asked confusedly.
Long Yao grinned, his nose twitched, his eyes rolled, and finally looked into an animal skin bag behind him.
Hu Lin looked back and quickly understood.
That bag is full of food.
He immediately understood, and with a smile he picked up the bag of animal skins and placed it in front of Long Yao.
"These are all brought to you by Grandpa Lin. Take a look and see if you like them."
Hu Lin did not favor one over the other and specifically emphasized that the baby was for several cubs to take care of, not just for Long Yao alone.
He waved his hand and asked Long Yu and others to come over.
Long Yu and others looked at Hu Jiaojiao.
Seeing Hu Jiaojiao nod, they walked over obediently.
Hu Lin opened the animal skin bag, revealing a large bag of chestnuts and many other fruits they had never seen before.
When Hu Lin was in the Leihe tribe, he found that they liked to eat chestnuts very much. Thinking that he would never have the chance to go back and pick them in the future, he specially brought some with him.
We ate frugally on the way and didn't even eat a single chestnut.
Just to leave it to the cubs.
"Some of these fruits only grow after winter. They are not available here. I don't know if you like them, so I picked some and brought them here anyway."
Hu Lin opened the small package inside and introduced them one by one.
Hu Jiaojiao looked over and saw that there were various kinds of nuts inside.
She had never seen it here before. It seemed to be a fruit unique to the Leihe tribe.
There are at least a dozen kinds of nuts in it.
A large animal hide bag was filled with fruits, weighing at least two hundred kilograms.
From this perspective, Hu Lin really put a lot of thought into this.
"Wow! It's chestnuts! Xiaowu likes to eat this!" Long Yao only recognized chestnuts, and this alone made him open his mouth with joy.
"Thank you, Grandpa Lin, you are so kind to us!"
He immediately thanked her obediently.
A few of the kids also politely followed suit and thanked him, and they liked Hu Lin even better.
It was not because he brought them food, but because he felt Hu Lin's care.
"Haha, as long as you like it." Seeing the cubs happy, Hu Lin was also in a very good mood.
Hu Jiaojiao received so many things and was very grateful to Hu Lin for caring so much about the cubs.
Seeing that it was still early, he suggested:
"Mom and Dad, Chief Hu Lin, Big Brother, please come to our house for dinner tonight. Invite my second brother and the others. I happen to be free today and can make you something delicious."
Hu Lin is also a member of their family.
For Hu Lin and Hu Min, the family is now truly reunited.
How can we miss a reunion dinner!
"Okay!" Hu Lin was the first to agree. He had been craving Hu Jiaojiao's cooking skills for a long time.
Naturally, Hu Min and Hu Qiang would not refuse Hu Jiaojiao's proposal.
"Then you take Chief Hu Lin back to rest, and I will go home to prepare food." Hu Jiaojiao was also quite interested.
She is not a very lively person.
But with Long Mo and Long Ling'er away, the house became a lot quieter, and she hadn't shown off her cooking skills for a long time.
She also truly loves cooking.
Hu Qingshan walked to Hu Jiaojiao's side, picked up the 200-jin bag of fruit, and said in a steady voice:
"Little sister, this fruit is too heavy. Let me help you carry it back."
Now that the orcs have been settled and Hu Lin is following Hu Min, there is no need for him to follow.
"Okay, thank you, brother."
Hu Jiaojiao smiled at Hu Qingshan without any pretense.
It really took some effort for her to carry back two hundred kilograms of fruit.
There's no reason to suffer for the sake of face.
Hu Qingshan sent Hu Jiaojiao and a few cubs home, and then went to inform Hu Qinggao and his brothers that they would come over for dinner in the evening.
In the evening, Hu Min, Hu Lin and others arrived.
Hu Jiaojiao also prepared the food, a table full of delicious dishes that made the little kids' stomachs boil with hunger.
Even Hu Jing and Feng Sheng were amazed and gave Hu Jiaojiao a thumbs up.
"Jiaojiao, your cooking skills are unparalleled! I guess even if the Beast God comes and eats the food you cook, he won't want to leave!" Hu Jing said without exaggeration.
Hu Jiaojiao smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated."
Long Mo was not here and Long Linger had not woken up, so this could not be considered a true reunion dinner.
But it's okay to treat it as a welcome party for Hu Lin and let the family get to know each other.
Hu Jiaojiao spent half the afternoon cooking, putting a lot of thought into it, and all the dishes were delicious.
At the dinner table.
The animals ate the food with great praise and even wanted to swallow their tongues.
It has been seven months since Hu Jiaojiao came to the Beast World. There are twenty-seven months in a year in the Beast World. Although seven months is just a little more than a quarter in the Beast World, for Hu Jiaojiao, more than half a year has passed.
The tastes of orcs and humans are quite different.
After practicing her cooking skills for so long, Hu Jiaojiao has mastered the taste of orcs to perfection.
After the meal, all the animals' stomachs were so full that they were about to burst.
Even so, they were reluctant to let Hu Jiaojiao clean up the mess alone, so all the animals worked together to clean up the mess on the table before leaving.
The next morning.
The cubs went to the rabbit pen as usual to practice their hunting skills.
After Hu Jiaojiao helped Long Linger wash her body, she also went out.
Today Hu Lin has to choose a location to build a tribe.
She brought the sheepskin map to Hu Min's house, but unexpectedly Hu Lin was already waiting outside.
He originally wanted to go find Hu Jiaojiao, but Hu Min wanted Hu Jiaojiao to rest for a while longer, so he could only control his temper and sit at the gate of the yard watching the sun rise little by little.
Unexpectedly, Hu Jiaojiao came here by herself.
Hu Lin couldn't wait any longer, so they immediately called Hu Qingshan and brought a team of orcs out of the tribe to investigate the address.
There are several icons on the map, which are all suitable places for building tribes selected by Hu Jiaojiao. There are various types.
On the way, Hu Jiaojiao gave Hu Lin a general account of the addresses.
After hearing this, Hu Lin just asked:
“Which place has more rivers?”
