"Of course, those uncles work very hard." Haitang nodded and said that Huoqiu was a good boss, and you would never be at a disadvantage working for him.

Now that the fruit trees planted in the village are bearing fruit, all the little beastmen and females in the village want to pick them, but things are hanging near the wall to prevent them from picking.

The children in the village have all been educated, so few of them make mistakes. Of course, if you really want to eat fruit, you can go to the middle of the village and eat the fruit from that tree.

Now every household has food, unlike before when children would eat fruit when they were starving. So no one objected to Huoqiu's approach.

Xiao Ping'an sat down a short distance away with the red berries and started eating them. They were sweet and he liked them. Sometimes his sister would juice them and put them in a bottle for him, which was about the size of a small wine jar. Although it was a bit big, he could still lift it.

When he goes out to play, some people are willing to hang out with him, while others are not. He figures out that those who dislike him won't approach him, while he can have fun with those who don't dislike him.

Xiao Ping'an sat eating fruit, and the stewed meat with crabapple was ready. Dongfang Long went to catch a few fish, then went to check the pond, and then said to crabapple, "I went to check the pond, even though the water hasn't soaked through yet."

There was some silt in the pond, but only a little. He stepped on one side, but it only reached his ankles. It shouldn't be too much yet. Haitang nodded after hearing this.

"Then let it run its course; it'll get better in a few days," Haitang said, looking at the fish in Dongfang Long's hand. "Want some grilled fish again today?"

"Yes, I want to eat it." Dongfang Long nodded. He had cleaned the fish himself. Haitang looked at it and nodded, telling Dongfang Long to light the fire so she could grill it for him later.

Dongfang Long immediately went to light the fire, intending to grill the fish. Haitang brought out the dishes and made a bowl for Xiao Ping'an, and then let Xiao Xiang eat. Xiao Xiang liked to eat and sat not far away, always quietly.

In Haitang's words, you'd think he was mute, but Xiao Xiang can talk, which left Haitang helpless... Although she felt sorry for the child, she didn't take the initiative to say anything to him. Instead, she let the child learn to be cheerful on his own.

The grilled fish was prepared to suit Dongfang Long's taste. While Dongfang Long ate the stewed meat and rice, his eyes never left the fish. Haitang said, "Is the fish more important to you than your wife?"

"No, Tangtang is more important than fish. Tangtang is more important than anything else," Dongfang Long said. "Then I won't eat fish." Dongfang Long lowered his head and said, afraid that Haitang would think he was less important than fish.

"Fool." Haitang shook her head with a smile, placed a five-pound grilled fish in front of Dongfang Long, then cut it open, giving a small piece to Xiao Ping'an, a piece to Xiao Xiang, and a piece to herself.

Dongfang Long started eating the rest of the fish, glancing up at Haitang as if to gauge her reaction. He was told to stop eating immediately if she reacted. Haitang blinked, took a bite of her fish, and only then did Dongfang Long begin eating.

Dongfang Long really liked Haitang's cooking skills, and Haitang knew best what he liked to eat. Tangtang's grilled fish was his favorite, because it was the first fish she ever grilled for him.

"Tangtang, are you coming out with me again tomorrow?" Dongfang Long asked Haitang, who shook her head.

"No, I can't follow you around all day. You won't be able to find anything to eat by then. I plan to check with the females tomorrow to see if they have any herbs, and I'll also gather some fruit," Haitang said.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Long nodded and said directly, "Well, then I'll go further away tomorrow and see what kind of tender meat I can hunt."

Wild boar meat is sometimes too coarse, and even when there's meat available, he still doesn't want lamb leg. "Tangtang, how about we eat snake meat tomorrow?"

"Snake meat? It's not that it's impossible, but you have to be careful. That stuff isn't good for the enemy." Haitang said. The lean meat is tender, and those who dare to eat it know that snake meat is more delicious than any other meat.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Long nodded, indicating that he would be careful. He then started eating and even put some meat on Haitang's plate. Haitang opened her mouth and ate it, smiling and nodding as she found it delicious.

"Delicious." Haitang said with a smile. Xiao Ping'an blinked and looked at Haitang, opening his mouth as if wanting her to feed him. Dongfang Long quickly grabbed a piece of meat and stuffed it into Xiao Ping'an's mouth.

"Brother...cough cough..." Xiao Ping'an coughed a few times. "Spicy..." He felt that the taste was wrong. Haitang sighed and poured Xiao Ping'an a glass of water, which Xiao Ping'an immediately drank.

"Only I can eat your food. Don't give it to the baby next time," Haitang said. Dongfang Long looked innocent. Who told this little brat to eat what was in Tangtang's bowl? Everything in Tangtang's bowl was his, while what was in his bowl belonged to Tangtang.

"Okay, I understand, Tangtang, don't be angry. I won't do it again next time." Dongfang Long said immediately. He was always willing to admit his mistakes. Hearing this, Haitang sighed and looked at Dongfang Long. This child had never been late in admitting his mistakes, but the problem was that he was still incorrigible in this matter.

Dongfang Long is incorrigible, not only incorrigible, but also impossible to change even after being taught. Everything else is fine, but the matter of Haitang is hard to say.

After eating and drinking their fill, it was time to stretch their muscles and bones. Dongfang Long didn't rest; instead, he and Xiao Xiang started cleaning the livestock and pig pens, replacing the straw with dry hay, making them spotless.

Once the eggs are laid, they are immediately picked up and put into baskets. There are quite a few eggs at home, and when there are extra, Haitang will use them to make things like egg pancakes.
