Time flies and it is already the end of summer.
The hot temperature still hasn't dropped, but the situation in the Yuehu tribe has stabilized.
With more and more orcs from outside the tribe joining, the Moon Lake Tribe is now overcrowded and close to saturation.
Fortunately, there are no more orcs coming from outside.
While Hu Lin was competing for favor with Hu Qiang, he was also managing the Yuehu tribe in an orderly manner.
The crops planted in early summer were also successfully harvested. Although it was a period of severe drought, Hu Jiaojiao asked them to plant some drought-resistant crops.
In addition, Fox Jiaojiao secretly replaced the seeds in the space, which greatly improved the drought resistance of the crops.
Although the yield is not as high as before due to the drought, these crops are still an important source of supplies for the Yuehu tribe today.
Although Hu Jiaojiao did not return to Fengshou Tribe during this period, she had been exchanging letters with the tribe leader.
At this time, Hu Jiaojiao was extremely grateful that a school had been set up in the Harvest Tribe. Even if she was not in the tribe, she could still know the situation of the tribe without missing anything. When transporting supplies, she could bring letters with her, which saved trouble and effort.
The school of Yuehu Tribe has also been established. Hu Jiaojiao also specially recruited several teachers from Fengshou Tribe, trained them for a period of time, and prepared teaching materials.
We just have to wait until the summer is over and then the school can start recruiting students.
By then, even if Hu Jiaojiao is not there, the teachers in the school will be able to complete the basic teaching.
For orcs, this basic knowledge is enough, unlike in school where they need to learn so many types and tricks.
Their focus is still on hunting and increasing their strength.
After two months of recuperation, Long Mo's injuries were almost healed.
Hu Jiaojiao is also preparing to return to the Harvest Tribe.
Looking at Hu Jiaojiao packing her luggage, Hu Min's heart, which had just been persuaded, became restless again.
"Jiaojiao, why don't I go back with you? I'm really worried about you being alone in the Harvest Tribe..."
Hu Min got excited and decided to go back to pack his luggage.
Long Mo: “…” So he is dead
Hu Qiang also echoed, "Yes, what if Jiaojiao is bullied by other orcs in the Harvest Tribe? Jiaojiao has never left us since she was a child!"
He looks like he is afraid that the world will not be in chaos.
Hu Lin quickly grabbed Hu Min and glared at Hu Qiang who was adding fuel to the fire.
He coaxed Hu Min softly, "Minmin, Jiaojiao is protected by Long Mo, and Hu Qingshan and the other four are also in the Harvest Tribe. The tribe leader will also take care of Jiaojiao. No orc will be so blind as to bully Jiaojiao."
He glared at Hu Qiang unhappily.
It was not easy to convince Minmin to stay in the Yuehu Tribe, but this fox is causing trouble again.
If Minmin changes her mind again, he will never let this fox go!
Hu Lin had to persuade Hu Min with all his might and finally calmed the impulsive Hu Min temporarily.
"What you said seems to make sense..." Hu Min nodded to herself, and suddenly thought of something, "What if Jiaojiao has no food? Can Long Mo, a beast, support Jiaojiao and a family of cubs?"
"My Jiaojiao can't let herself become thin and hungry!"
It was fine when they were together. Hu Min wouldn't think too much and would give any good things to Hu Jiaojiao first.
But when she thought about having to live in two separate tribes in the future, she felt uneasy neither here nor there.
I'm always afraid that Hu Jiaojiao will not have a good life without me by her side.
"Yeah, Jiaojiao has lost weight recently. You can see there is no flesh on her face." Hu Qiang fanned the flames again.
Hu Min turned around and looked at Hu Jiaojiao with heartache, and felt that it was absolutely right.
"Jiaojiao, I'd better go back with you. Look at you, you used to be so plump, but now you're so skinny that a gust of wind can blow you down."
This time, Hu Jiaojiao couldn't help but twitch her lips.
It’s so hot in summer and I have no appetite for anything. How can I gain weight
Besides, the orcs in the tribe are called thin. Compared with other orcs in the tribe, it is not an exaggeration to describe her as white and plump!
It turns out that parents always think their children are thin.
"Mom and Dad, I'm not thin. I'm already the fattest female in the Yuehu Tribe." Hu Jiaojiao pouted and corrected.
"Go to the tribe and see which female is not thinner than me?"
She was not fat, her figure was well-proportioned and curvy. The females in the tribe were all malnourished, and compared to her, they looked like bamboo poles.
After Hu Jiaojiao finished speaking, she also winked at Die Cai.
"Really?" Hu Min asked suspiciously. She had never noticed this before.
Die Cai nodded quickly and answered with certainty, "Aunt Min, Jiaojiao is right. Jiaojiao, as long as you are healthy, there is no need to get so fat. I heard from Ling'er that orcs who get too fat are prone to illness and it will be hard for them to give birth to cubs in the future."
She has been with Hu Jiaojiao recently, and has learned this knowledge through observation and exposure.
"And, most importantly." Die Cai pulled Hu Min aside and said in a low voice, "Aunt Min, Jiao Jiao is such a beautiful female, do you have the heart to feed her and make her fat? What if she doesn't like it?"
When Hu Min heard this, she thought it made sense.
Her daughter Jiaojiao's wishes are the most important.
"Xiao Cai is right, then..."
Hu Min nodded, but Hu Lin interrupted her before she could finish.
"Then stay. Our two tribes are so close to each other. If you need anything, I can send it back the same day!"
He made the final decision, not giving Hu Min any chance to think too much.
"Minmin, Jiaojiao is leaving soon. Let's go back and pack some delicious food to bring back for Jiaojiao, shall we?"
Hu Lin directly changed the subject and sent Hu Min away.
If he stayed any longer, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to keep Hu Min.
"Yes, Jiaojiao, mother will go and prepare food for you. You like to eat fruits. The fruits from Yuehu tribe are not available in Fengshou tribe." Hu Min suddenly remembered and immediately became more energetic.
He quickly took Hu Lin and Hu Qiang and went back.
“Mom, there’s no need to pack too much, I have everything here…” Before Hu Jiaojiao could finish her words, Hu Min had already disappeared.
She wiped the sweat off her forehead and let out a long breath.
It's so tiring to deal with her mother.
Fortunately, both of her fathers dote on her mother, otherwise she would really not be at ease letting her mother stay in the Yuehu Tribe.
"Jiaojiao, your parents are so good to you." Diecai on the side looked envious.
She came here to escape famine, but her tribesmen had already died or scattered. The continent is so big that she would probably never meet them again.
All her relatives also died in this drought.
In fact, she didn't value these feelings. The orcs in their tribe didn't have such strong family affection, and adult orcs were estranged from their parents.
She didn't know why, but when she saw Hu Jiaojiao being cared for, she felt a little envious.
It turns out that there are such good parents in the world.
