Fortunately, Hu Shen left soon after.
He had rested enough and was going to continue digging the cave to expand its size, so that the tiger cub and the orcs would have nowhere to live if the wooden house collapsed.
This is the only thing he can do to repay the tiger cubs for them right now.
The sky was cloudless and the sun was not blazing.
The weather, however, was unusually gloomy.
In the morning, Su Guodong pulled all the household laborers to work, setting up a simple cultivation shed to grow his seeds.
Hu Shen's arrival did not affect the Su Tang family's life.
After breakfast, as always, Lang Zhuang came to wait for Xiao Fu and his companion to go hunting.
However, Xiao Fu is not going today. He wants to stay at home and build a large chicken coop with his older brother, Su Shiwei, and is eagerly anticipating his grand project of raising chickens to lay eggs.
Su Shiwei was very skilled. He drew the design on the wooden board with charcoal and then began to build the chicken coop.
There's still plenty of timber left over from building the log cabin, so there's no worry about a lack of building materials.
Su Tang wasn't idle either. The bear meat from yesterday hadn't been processed yet, so today she and Lin Xia smoked it, cut some into chunks and strips, and dried it into jerky.
The five kittens were very excited and spent the whole morning diligently helping out (stealing food).
Su Tang wasn't very skilled with a knife, but she was willing to do it and learn anything. After Lin Xia tried to stop her a few times, she finally let her help.
A mother can't help her daughter forever.
Su Tang used a stone knife to cut large chunks of bear meat into strips and laid them out on a wooden board to dry.
Lin Xia cut two or three strips, but she could only cut one.
Half an hour later, Lin Xia's side had already filled a whole wooden board, while her side only had one-tenth of it.
etc!
One-tenth? She couldn't possibly be cutting that slowly!
Su Tang cut another strip and placed it on the wooden board in front of her. Instead of looking down to continue cutting, she stared at the board.
A few seconds later, a white claw reached up from the other side of the wooden board, rummaging and rummaging, and soon the sharp claw hooked onto the piece of meat she had just put down.
With a "whoosh".
The claws hooked the meat under the wooden board.
A series of soft, chewing sounds rang out.
Su Tang bent down, tilted her head back, and looked under the wooden board.
The space under the wooden board was empty, and at that moment, five kittens were huddled underneath, fighting mouth to mouth for the piece of meat, yet they were perfectly harmonious, none of them making a sound to disturb Su Tang.
Su Tang: "..."
So all the meat ended up in your bellies!
At lunchtime, Su Guodong, his two sons, and Daqing returned to eat. The five kittens had already eaten until their bellies were round and full. They lay in the sunless yard, belly up, sleeping soundly on their backs.
After lunch, Su Guodong, who had been agonizing over the matter all morning, finally couldn't hold back any longer and pulled Su Tang aside. "My dear daughter, your father has something to tell you."
Su Tang looked at her father with a puzzled expression. "What is it? Please tell me."
They made it all so mysterious.
“No matter what it is, we can’t judge a book by its cover, you know?” Su Guodong carefully chose his words.
That's the problem with fathers; they can't talk to their daughters as directly as they do to their mothers.
Su Tang nodded, and the father and daughter stared at each other. "And then?"
“Just because something looks good doesn’t mean it’s good. Many things that look good on the outside are just flashy and impractical. You have to look at the inner qualities. Of course, I’m not saying that something that doesn’t look good is good. In short, my daughter, you have to cultivate both your inner and outer qualities. Do you understand what your father means?”
Su Guodong winked and looked at Su Tang with a kind expression.
“I understand the logic,” Su Tang nodded. “So, Father, what do you want to say?”
Father was acting strangely today, speaking in roundabout ways.
Su Guodong: "..."
Lin Xia walked over and pinched Su Guodong's arm.
"What nonsense are you spouting now? I think you have a very clear understanding of yourself."
Lin Xia snorted coldly, "If I hadn't been blind and fooled by your old man's appearance, I wouldn't have chosen you if I hadn't realized you were a bumpkin."
"I've spent half my life working in the dirt and mud with you!"
Upon hearing Lin Xia's words, Su Guodong gave an awkward smile.
He immediately forgot about his daughter's matter, turned to Lin Xia, massaged her shoulders, and spoke softly to her.
"I was wrong, my wife. You're still the best. You've never looked down on me and have sacrificed the best years of your life for me. If it weren't for your support at home all these years, how could I have concentrated on researching planting techniques..."
Su Guodong appears to be a rigid and old-fashioned man to outsiders, but he is flexible and knows when to yield. Despite their minor squabbles, the couple has always had a good relationship.
Lin Xia complained, but she wasn't really angry. She rolled her eyes at him and told him to squeeze harder.
Su Tang silently left the two elders alone. She didn't know what had happened, but she was definitely stuffed from all the PDA.
afternoon.
Su Tang took out the honey that Lang Nini had, and together with the five kittens, delivered it to the Gray Wolf Tribe.
I've been delayed by other things on my previous visits, and the honey hasn't been delivered to Wolf Nini yet.
The kittens are now eating and drinking well and have been weaned early, so they were no longer exchanged with Wolf Nini.
After the incident with the hyena orcs, the gray wolf chieftain sent orcs to patrol the area around the tribe every day, fearing that the same situation would happen again.
It's not just for Sutang's sake; the safety of the tribe is also extremely important. Who knows, the other side might target the Gray Wolf tribe next time.
The wild grass on the path had been trampled flat, and many of it still showed signs of being picked.
However, weeds are very resilient. Even if they are trampled or picked, it does not affect their rapid growth. They can come back to life as soon as it rains.
The five kittens chased each other, sometimes running, sometimes rolling around on the ground, and wobbled along with Su Tang toward the gray wolf tribe, giving off a vibe of an old lady walking her dog.
Walking through the gray wolf tribe.
Su Tang heard soft sobbing sounds.
Turning my head, I saw several females wiping away tears under the tree.
Recently, the atmosphere in the Gray Wolf Tribe hasn't been very good because of the absence of Bai Shi, but Su Tang didn't pay attention and quickly walked past.
We arrived outside the cave.
Then I saw three wolf cubs lying at the entrance of the cave, dozing off in the warm breeze.
Since Wolf Qi left, they haven't gone out to play anymore. When Wolf Nini is at home, she only stays near the cave entrance. Perhaps she's become more sensible and wants to stay with her mother.
The five kittens' eyes lit up when they saw the wolf cubs, and their tails stood up like hooks.
The wolf cubs instantly sensed a dangerous aura. They opened their eyes and met five pairs of glowing eyes, and immediately had a bad feeling.
Just as Su Tang was about to call out to Lang Nini, the four white balls at her feet shot out like firecrackers, with another white ball slowly following behind.
Looking up again, the three wolf cubs had already run off, with the kitten chasing after them, having a great time.
For a moment, a strange feeling welled up in Su Tang's heart.
Why does she feel that the wolf cub is a little afraid of her kitten? How could a wolf be afraid of a cat?
Are orcs different from ordinary wild beasts...?
