Hou Xiang took a bite of broccoli with some doubt.
"Hmm... It tastes a bit strange, not as good as meat."
After tasting everything in the salad, Hou Xiang gave a fair review.
These things are just cooked with clean water and a little salt, so naturally they are not as delicious as dishes with added seasonings.
Hu Jiaojiao had expected Hou Xiang to say this, and patiently explained, "You gain weight because you eat too much fatty meat. Fatty meat contains too much fat. Eat more vegetables and fruits, less fatty meat, and walk more, and you will lose weight easily."
"How do you know I like to eat fatty meat?"
Hou Xiang's face was filled with shock. He turned sideways, revealing a large bunch of fat meat roasting on the fire behind him.
It was sizzling with oil dripping from the grill, and it felt greasy just by looking at it.
Hu Jiaojiao couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. As expected, her guess was right.
Females in the animal world basically start to gain weight from the moment they become pregnant. A big part of the reason is that they eat a lot of fat and sit at home all day without going out.
Even if they give birth to puppies, they only look after them outside the house. All the housework is done by males. It would be a miracle if they don't gain weight.
Hou Xiang looked at the sizzling fat meat reluctantly and gritted his teeth, "Okay, I'll listen to you and won't eat fat meat anymore!"
That sad and angry expression on his face, as if he had given up something important.
Hu Jiaojiao was in a state of confusion whether to laugh or cry.
After delivering the diet meal, Hu Jiaojiao described the appearance of the tables, chairs and benches to Hou Xiang. Hou Xiang immediately patted her chest and promised to come and pick them up in two days.
Hu Jiaojiao returned home with an empty wooden basin, bowl and spoon. When she was almost outside the election, Long Linger suddenly cried out in surprise, "Mother, there are orcs in the yard!"
There have been too many orcs causing trouble these days, and Long Linger is feeling traumatized.
As soon as he saw a stranger in the yard, he immediately became alert.
When Hu Jiaojiao heard this, she looked up and saw a strange male standing in the yard.
"It's okay, mother is here." She patted Long Linger's head gently and quickened her pace to walk back.
Long Linger followed closely behind.
The cubs in the house were standing in the yard. Long Yu saw Hu Jiaojiao and Long Linger coming back and running out with the little ones.
Long Yu said to Hu Jiaojiao with a stern face, "An orc is looking for you."
It seemed that he was not here to cause trouble. Hu Jiaojiao nodded and hurried over.
The orcs in the yard saw Hu Jiaojiao coming back and walked out with a dark face, "Hu Jiaojiao, the tribe leader asked me to call you to the picking team, hurry up, everyone is waiting for you."
So that's what it is.
Hu Jiaojiao remembered the last time she talked to the tribe leader about joining the picking team, and nodded in response, "Okay, I'll be there right away."
She turned around and handed the wooden basin to Long Linger, and told the kids not to run around and wait for her to come back.
Seeing her dithering, the orc urged her impatiently, "Are you ready? If you don't want to go, don't go. You're wasting everyone's time."
Hu Jiaojiao frowned slightly, thinking that she had indeed wasted time by going out, so she did not refute and responded, "Okay, I'll be right there."
The original body usually bullied the weak and feared the strong in the tribe. The orc just thought that Hu Jiaojiao was giving in, so he snorted coldly and walked away without waiting for Hu Jiaojiao to catch up.
The orc was tall and strong, and he ran fast, so Fox Jiaojiao had to trot to catch up with him.
Twenty minutes later, the two arrived at the entrance of the tribe.
There were three male orcs standing at the entrance of the tribe. Hu Jiaojiao recognized one of them, who was the tribe leader she had seen before, and there were five or six females.
After the orc brought Hu Jiaojiao, he returned to the team, as if it was a shame to stand with Hu Jiaojiao.
Hu Jiaojiao walked up to the tribe leader and said hello, "Tribal leader, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
The clan leader waved his hand, "It's okay, the females haven't arrived yet."
He was surprised in his heart. He didn't expect that Hu Jiaojiao would really come. He just thought that Hu Jiaojiao was just in a whim and would not come at all.
When Hu Jiaojiao heard this, she knew that the orc was dissatisfied with her original body and was deliberately urging her, but she didn't take it to heart. She nodded and waited with the other females.
When several females saw Fox Jiaojiao approaching, they all stood aside.
It was as if she was some dirty thing and I didn't want to have anything to do with her.
Hu Jiaojiao was already accustomed to it. She stood there with a changed expression on her face. After waiting for about ten minutes, five or six females arrived late, including Lu Mian'er, Hu Jing and Lu Cuicui.
Ying Yuan sent Lu Mian'er over. Seeing Hu Jiaojiao was also there, his face immediately turned cold, "Why are you here too!"
Hu Jiaojiao glanced at him and didn't intend to pay any attention to him.
Seeing that Hu Jiaojiao ignored him, Ying Yuan frowned, his face darkened, he took two steps closer and lowered his voice.
In a voice that only the two of them could hear, he said, "Hu Jiaojiao, don't try to play any tricks. I told you, I won't fall for you. If you dare to bully Mian'er, I will strangle you to death."
Hu Jiaojiao raised her eyelids and looked at Ying Yuan with a foolish look.
Is this guy probably suffering from paranoia
She was just standing there, why did he always have such a rich imagination and imagine a big drama in his mind that she was going to persecute him and Lu Mian'er
Hu Jiaojiao rolled her eyes at him and simply turned her back to him, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
I really can't understand why the original body treated this narcissistic guy like a boss. What did she want
Are you craving for his narcissism, his sour face, and his harsh words
Ying Yuan was so angry that his face turned black.
"Ayuan, what's wrong?" Lu Mian'er also came over and pulled Yingyuan's arm worriedly.
Upon seeing Lu Mian'er, the expression on Ying Yuan's face softened instantly, and his voice became gentle, "It's okay, I have to go to the hunting team today, so I can't accompany you. You stay with Hu Jing, so be careful. If any orcs bully you, tell me."
As he said this, he gave Hu Jiaojiao a glare like a knife with displeasure.
Lu Mian'er nodded understandingly, "Go ahead, I'm fine."
Lu Cuicui also pretended to be reserved in front of Ying Yuan, "Brother Ying Yuan, don't worry, Sister Hu Jing and I will take good care of Sister Mian'er."
Ying Yuan didn't even look at her. His eyes reluctantly moved away from Lu Mian'er and turned to look for the hunting team.
Lu Cuicui felt a little embarrassed when being ignored.
She pursed her lips lightly, secretly suppressing the jealousy in her eyes, then raised her eyes again and affectionately put her arm around Lu Mian'er's.
"Sister Mian'er is so lucky. Brother Yingyuan waited until this time to send you off, and then rushed to find the hunting team. Unlike a certain female, she doesn't even have a male at home, and her only partner is a loser..."
The previous words immediately attracted envious glances from the females around him.
All the orcs in the tribe knew that Lu Mian'er was the least favored female in the Lu family. Her status in the family was not as high as her younger brother Lu Ligao. However, she was favored by Ying Yuan, the strongest male in the tribe. From then on, her status rose rapidly and she became the most enviable female in the tribe.
The males who wanted to mate with her lined up from the south to the north of the tribe.
After hearing Lu Cuicui's next words, the females all looked at the isolated Hu Jiaojiao and smiled with contempt.
Will Hu Jiaojiao join the picking team
I'm afraid he knew Ying Yuan would pick up Lu Mian'er and came to see Ying Yuan on purpose!
