"No wonder the Gray Wolf leader suddenly changed his attitude towards Wolf Kui completely. It seems they found quite a few sweet potatoes, otherwise they wouldn't value Wolf Kui so much," Su Tang said in a deep voice.
Food is fundamental to the survival of a tribe. Although the gray wolf orcs are carnivorous, they can only rely on fruit to fill their stomachs when they encounter bad weather and cannot catch prey.
The rainy and snowy seasons are the most difficult times for hunting each year.
If there were fruits that could be preserved for a long time, they would be an extremely precious resource, no less valuable than meat.
Su Tang's doubts have been resolved.
Su Guodong was thrilled to learn that there were sweet potatoes.
"Sweet potatoes are great! They're a disaster relief crop—high-yielding, stable-yielding, widely adaptable, and resilient, tolerating drought and poor soil. They can also be used as vegetables. If we had sweet potatoes here, we could plant them on a large scale, and at least we wouldn't go hungry..."
Su Guodong immediately began to educate his family about agricultural knowledge.
He spent the rest of his time cutting down trees and building wooden houses, which made him incredibly bored.
Xiao Fu, listening from the side, was completely confused. What was this "red mouse"? And what was the rest of the conversation? He couldn't understand a single word.
Seeing Xiao Fu's confused expression, Lin Xia coughed loudly to remind Su Guodong.
"Cough cough cough!"
Didn't you see there are wolf cubs here?! If you say anything more, we'll be exposed!
Daqing and Su Shiwei went to cut down trees to build a wooden house. Su Shiwei also went hunting. Su Guodong only heard about this when he saw Xiaofu return and came back to check on the situation.
Su Guodong belatedly realized what was happening and quickly shut his mouth.
It was almost noon, and Su Tang sent Xiao Fu away, saying, "Xiao Fu, you must be hungry after being out all morning. The fire is still burning, go and roast some corn."
Xiao Fu ate some dried meat and had just run back, so he didn't feel hungry at all after exercising.
He said directly, "Sister, I'm not hungry."
Su Tang looked at him and said, "Are you hungry?"
After saying that, he simply moved Xiao Fu aside.
Xiao Fu: "???"
He didn't know why, but looking into his older sister's eyes, he couldn't say anything to refute her, and subconsciously he complied.
Lin Xia noticed something was wrong with her daughter and asked after Xiao Fu left:
"Tangtang, what's wrong? Do you feel like something's wrong?"
From the moment she heard Xiao Fu's words, Tangtang had been frowning.
Su Guodong asked curiously, "Yes, girl, finding sweet potatoes is a good thing, so why do you look so pale?"
Su Tang glanced at the two elders and voiced her doubts:
"Father, Mother, don't you think this is too much of a coincidence? How come the orcs of the Gray Wolf Tribe never found sweet potatoes before, but we found them as soon as we arrived here?"
"Maybe... it's just a coincidence?" Su Guodong couldn't possibly understand any of this; all he knew was farming!
"The sweet potatoes grow in the ground, so why would Lang Kui go digging them up? And how would he know they're edible?" Su Tang asked again.
Hearing this, Lin Xia also felt something was amiss.
"Tangtang is right! They've only been digging up sweet potatoes for a few days, how do they know they can be stored for a long time?"
The three of them exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock.
An answer was about to emerge in the minds of the three.
"Girl, you mean there are time travelers in the Gray Wolf Tribe?" Su Guodong was both surprised and delighted. This was a fellow villager!
"That person wouldn't be Lang Kui, would it?" Lin Xia added.
Su Tang exhaled a breath of stale air and stated more specifically:
"I suspect that Lang Kui is Xu Zhengqiao."
"What?!" Su Guodong was surprised. He thought the possibility was a bit small. "Your ex-boyfriend Xu Zhengqiao? No way. Although they look very similar, if he had traveled through time, why wouldn't he come looking for us?"
If a normal person time-traveled and saw someone who looked like their ex-girlfriend, wouldn't they at least try to find out more about them?
Moreover, the utensils they used and the wooden houses they built were things that the Gray Wolf tribe did not have; a time traveler would have been able to tell at a glance.
But he didn't see anything unusual about Lang Kui!
Su Tang frowned slightly; this was also something she couldn't understand.
But the feeling she got from Lang Kui was so strange that it was hard for her not to think about it.
Since their family had already experienced time travel, she didn't find it hard to accept anything else.
"Wait a minute, honey, even if it's him, he'll be fine. I think that guy is handsome and has a good personality. I think he's a teacher, right? He has a good job and is ambitious. I think he's quite a good person..."
Su Guodong still doesn't know why his daughter broke up with her boyfriend!
Hearing this, Lin Xia snorted, "What handsome man? I think he's just a shifty-eyed, muffled voice, not manly at all. He's obviously not a reliable guy."
Lin Xia disliked Xu Zhengqiao from the first time she saw him.
He was overjoyed to learn that his daughter had broken up with him, but fearing that she might get back together with him, he forbade Su Guodong from asking about the reason for their breakup.
I'm just afraid that Su Tang will regret it later.
Su Tang couldn't help but glance at Lin Xia. She had to admit, a woman's intuition is really accurate.
If she had listened to her mother and not been with Xu Zhengqiao, she wouldn't have almost been imprisoned and controlled by him later.
"Father and Mother, I have something to tell you."
Considering the current situation, Su Tang no longer hid anything and told the two elders the reason for her breakup with Xu Zhengqiao.
After hearing Su Tang's words, the two elders were both angry and alarmed.
"Tangtang, why didn't you tell us sooner? I knew that guy wasn't a good person! He didn't hurt you, did he?" Lin Xia asked anxiously.
“He didn’t hurt me. I broke up with him as soon as I realized something was wrong, and I’ve been living at home ever since. He didn’t have a chance to do anything to me,” Su Tang explained to reassure her parents.
In a short moment, Su Guodong's shock and anger turned into lingering fear.
"That damned brat, he's been hiding his true colors for a long time. He's a monster in human form, a freak worse than an animal!"
"Luckily, my daughter has a keen eye and saw through his true colors at a glance. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable. If I had run into him here, I would have beaten him so badly that he couldn't take care of himself!"
Lin Xia and her daughter Su Tang looked at him: "..." That's not what you just said.
The mother and daughter tacitly refrained from interrupting Su Guodong.
After he finished his eloquent speech, he realized that neither of them had said a word.
"Ahem..." The atmosphere seemed a little awkward. "Daughter, do you mean Xu Zhengqiao transmigrated into Lang Kui's body?"
He changed the subject.
Lin Xia frowned, looking tense. "If Lang Kui really is Xu Zhengqiao, then isn't our Tangtang in danger?"
Now, Wolf Kui has the Gray Wolf leader as his backer, and the Gray Wolf leader listens to Wolf Kui very much. If he wanted to do something to Su Tang at this time, it would be as easy as turning his hand.
Su Guodong lowered his head and began packing his luggage. "No, we still have to move. We can't stay here anymore, there are perverts here..."
Let alone his daughter, even he, a grown man, felt horrified upon hearing such a perverted story.
His daughter must have been terrified!
