Lu Mian'er was washing Yingyuan's fur skirt by the river when she suddenly saw a pair of small feet appear by the river.
"Cui Cui? What are you doing here?"
She looked up in confusion and saw Lu Cuicui standing by the river with a wronged look on her face. She couldn't help but ask in confusion.
Ever since she was exposed by Hu Jiaojiao last time, she no longer had any contact with Lu Cuicui.
"Sister Mian'er, I know I was wrong last time. Please don't be angry with me, okay? I was really bewildered..."
Lu Cuicui's eyes were moist. When she heard Lu Mian'er's words, she immediately stepped forward and pulled her arm with a pleading look.
He looked genuinely remorseful.
Seeing her so pitiful, Lu Mian'er sighed.
"Cui Cui, it's good that you know you were wrong. Don't ever have such thoughts of hurting females again, otherwise the tribe leader will punish you." The distant expression gradually faded away.
"Sister Mian'er taught me a lesson. I won't dare to do it again in the future."
Lu Cuicui nodded obediently.
A flash of jealousy appeared in his slightly lowered eyes.
Why, Lu Mian'er and Hu Jiaojiao, one of them occupied Ying Yuan, and the other was so shameless as to harass Ying Yuan, this time she wanted to get rid of these two females at once.
Yingyuan is hers.
Lu Cuicui saw the fur skirt in Lu Mian'er's hand. It was so big that it was obviously worn by a male.
His eyes turned slightly, and he stepped forward to help diligently: "Sister Mian'er, let me help you wash it. I can wash the animal skin skirt very cleanly."
This is Yingyuan's fur skirt...
Unexpectedly, Lu Mian'er dodged Lu Cuicui's hand.
"No need, I can do it myself." Lu Mian'er smiled faintly and explained, "Ying Yuan doesn't like other orcs touching his things."
Lu Cuicui's smile suddenly stiffened.
She gritted her teeth secretly, thinking that once she got Ying Yuan, she would see how Lu Mian'er would show off in front of her!
After a moment, Lu Cuicui smiled again, "Sister Mian'er, I haven't talked to you for a long time. Can I come to your house to play later?"
During this period, she had no excuse to look for Lu Mian'er and no chance to see Ying Yuan.
"Sure, I'm done, let's go back."
Lu Mian'er didn't notice anything unusual about her. She shook off the water droplets on her fur skirt, then stood up and invited Lu Cuicui to go home.
When the two men returned home, Ying Yuan was half-naked, revealing his muscular body, tearing his prey apart with his claws in the yard.
Lu Cuicui was stunned for a moment, and ran forward with red eyes: "Brother Yingyuan, long time no see, I..."
"Mian'er, you're back. Didn't I tell you that I would wash the fur skirt? Why are you working again?"
Before he could finish his words, Ying Yuan put down the prey in his hand.
He walked past her and towards Lu Mian'er behind him without even looking at her.
Lu Cuicui was so jealous that she went crazy. She twisted the animal skin on her body tightly with her hands, wishing she could grind it into powder.
While the two were talking, Lu Cuicui quietly walked into the room, looked around, and finally fixed her eyes on the white feathers on the animal skin bed.
She secretly hid the feather on her body and walked out as if nothing had happened.
…
The next morning, before Hu Jiaojiao got up, she heard an orc calling her loudly at the door.
"Hu Jiaojiao, something bad has happened, please come out quickly, the clan leader has something urgent to discuss with you!"
Hu Jiaojiao startled and woke up from her dream.
Several cubs were also awakened by the sound. Hu Jiaojiao turned over and got up, reminding the cubs: "Mom will go out for a while. When mom comes back, grill some meat if you are hungry."
The kids can take care of themselves and can still do a simple barbecue.
Before the cubs could say anything, they saw Hu Jiaojiao rushing out the door.
"What happened? What does the clan leader want me to do?" When Hu Jiaojiao went out, she saw a burly man standing outside the door, looking extremely anxious.
"Tuguo Miao died, the clan leader asked you to go and see what happened."
After hearing the orc's words, Foxy's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.
She had just told the clan leader the precautions for planting yesterday, and today something went wrong with the potato seedlings. It was such a coincidence.
"Let's go, I'll go take a look."
The orc nodded and was about to transform into the beast form of the camel fox Jiaojiao, but when he turned around, the fox Jiaojiao had already walked a long way away.
When Hu Jiaojiao and the orcs arrived at the fields, many orcs from the tribe had already surrounded them, forming three layers inside and three layers outside, surrounding the fields tightly.
"Make way, make way."
The orcs helped Hu Jiaojiao push away the orcs blocking the way and sent her in.
Hu Jiaojiao squeezed in easily and with a glance, she saw the tribe leader standing next to the field closest to the river with a solemn and sad face. His expression was full of worry, as if he was about to cry.
"Hu Jiaojiao, you are finally here."
Seeing Hu Jiaojiao, the clan leader seemed to have seen a savior and rushed over to her, "Quick, take a look, what is going on?"
It was fine yesterday. How come the fruit seedlings died just overnight
Can we still harvest the local fruits before winter
The clan leader was worried and anxious. If Tu Guomiao could speak, he would definitely ask him.
"Don't be anxious, Chief. Let me take a look first." Hu Jiaojiao smiled slightly, signaling the chief to relax.
She had been prepared. The seeds planted in the land near the river were not taken from space. Even if some potato seedlings were lost, it would not have a big impact on the yield.
"Okay, okay, you take a look." The patriarch nodded repeatedly and made way for her, not daring to waste time.
Hu Jiaojiao looked around and saw that in the field closest to the river, the potato seedlings were drooping limply on the ground, lifeless.
However, in other fields farther away from the river, the wild fruit seedlings are still growing vigorously without any impact.
She walked over, squatted down and took a closer look at the potato sprouts, then stretched out her white fingers and pressed them on the soil, feeling an obvious sense of wetness.
Hu Jiaojiao's eyes darkened slightly, and she understood everything.
"How is it? Do you see what the problem is?"
Seeing her stand up, the patriarch went up to her and asked anxiously.
Hu Jiaojiao nodded and said in a deep voice, "Chief, these earth fruit seedlings died because of overwatering."
"Overwatering?" The tribe leader had a complicated expression on his face and shook his head. "That's impossible. I just sent the orcs here to inspect today. I didn't ask them to water the plants at all."
He also specifically stopped the orcs from watering the plants indiscriminately.
How could it die from overwatering
Hu Jiaojiao pursed her lips and reminded slowly, "Chief, maybe someone secretly watered the earth fruit seedlings before the patrolling orcs came, deliberately killing the earth fruit seedlings."
Just as he finished speaking, a male walked up to him.
"Chief, we found this by the river, please take a look." The male handed over the thing in his hand respectfully.
Fox Jiaojiao also turned her head to look, and saw that the male was holding a thin feather in his hand. The feather was as white as snow, with short hairs at the root. It was obviously a feather from a bird or animal, and it was from an important part.
Seeing the feathers, the chief's face darkened.
The orcs around also saw the feather clearly and showed surprised expressions.
"Sister Mian'er, isn't that the feather you carry with you every day?" Lu Cuicui covered her mouth and exclaimed in shock.
