She also quickly noticed the person behind Heiduo.
The ignorant little girl raised her hand and pointed at Jiang Li.
"Brother, who is he?" Why does he look unfamiliar?
Jiang Li's eyes met Xiao Yue's for a second, and she was so scared that she quickly retracted her head to avoid noticing anything unusual.
Heiduo looked around and saw that all the orcs were immersed in the joy of getting food and no one noticed them.
"Xiaoyue, let's go home and talk about it."
"Yeah, okay."
The Black Bear Clan lives in thatched huts, but the Kurosawa family's is a bit shabby in comparison.
After returning home, Heiduo gave the sack to Xiaoyue and asked her to clean the fish first.
Then he carried Jiang Li back to a room.
There was nothing in the room except a straw bed, but it was clean and tidy.
A middle-aged woman was lying on the straw mat bed.
The woman had a sallow face, pale and cracked lips, sunken cheeks, and dark circles under her eyes.
It looked like he had been hungry for many days and was obviously malnourished.
"Mother."
Heiduo walked forward and gently called the woman on the bed.
The woman's eyebrows moved slightly, as if she was using all her strength to pry open her heavy eyelids.
"Xiaoduo, you're back."
Heiduo nodded.
"I brought a lot of food, enough to last us for a while."
"Did you hurt anyone?"
"No."
"Did you leave an IOU for them?"
"Well, I stayed."
The woman raised the corners of her lips slightly, revealing a relieved smile.
"That's good. When the land produces food, we will return it to the owner."
"Yeah, I know."
Heiduo glanced at the rice porridge in the bowl next to him and frowned slightly.
"Why didn't you drink the rice porridge I made for you before I left?"
The woman licked her cracked lips and said, "I want to save it for Xiaoyue. She is growing now."
"Mother, you haven't eaten for two days. Drink this rice porridge first. After Xiaoyue cleans the fish, I will cook fish for you."
"good."
Heiduo slowly helped the woman up and touched the bowl of rice porridge with his other hand.
The rice porridge was still warm, probably because Xiaoyue had heated it up again.
Heiduo handed the rice porridge to the woman and said, "The rice porridge is not cold yet, you can still drink it."
The woman scooped up the rice porridge with both hands. Just when she was about to drink it, she happened to catch a glimpse of Jiang Li standing not far away.
"Xiaoduo, who is this?"
Heiduo was slightly stunned and looked in the direction the woman was looking.
"Ah? I brought her from the Snake Tribe."
The woman was stunned after hearing this. After looking Jiang Li up and down, she pulled out a hand and hit Heiduo hard on the head.
"You little brat, you actually learned bad things from Xiao Liuzi! What about snatching a woman back? Didn't I tell you that I would find you a good girl after the family's grain harvest is normal? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Heiduo cried out in pain and rubbed his head in grievance.
"Mother, I didn't..."
"Still quibbling! Look how scared you are! After coming here, I dare not speak! All I can do is use brute force all day long..."
The woman chattered on and on about educating Heiduo.
Heiduo hung his head in grievance, not daring to refute a word.
He kept nodding in response to whatever she said.
"aunt……"
Jiang Li called out softly.
The woman who heard the voice immediately stopped talking and turned to look at Jiang Li.
Seeing Hei Duo being so wronged, Jiang Li couldn't bear it and started to defend him.
"Actually, I wasn't robbed by him. He saved me."
"Really?" The woman looked at Hei Duo suspiciously.
Heiduo nodded affirmatively.
"Mother, it's true."
Jiang Li told the woman what had happened in a concise manner.
After hearing this, the woman breathed a sigh of relief and raised her hand to smooth her chest.
"I was so scared. I thought you had been staying with Xiao Liuzi and were led astray by him."
Heiduo pursed his lips, his eyes showing determination, "Mother, I will not learn to do things like him."
The woman ignored Hei Duo and instead waved and called Jiang Li happily.
"Child, come here." She moved to the side, "Come and sit down, don't tire yourself out."
Jiang Li understood what the woman said.
After all, she was an experienced person. Even though she covered her belly with clothes, she could still tell at a glance that Jiang Li was pregnant.
Jiang Li nodded and walked over obediently.
Before sitting down, she asked the woman to drink the rice porridge.
The woman smiled and responded repeatedly, quickly finishing the rice porridge.
Perhaps because she had gained strength from drinking the bowl of rice porridge, the woman looked much better than before.
"May I have your name?"
"Aunt, my name is Jiang Li."
"Don't call me aunt, it seems strange. People here call me Aunt Qiao. You can call me that from now on."
"Okay, Aunt Qiao."
Aunt Qiao looked at Jiang Li with a smile. Her eyebrows and eyes were very similar to Hei Duo.
"Your belly is getting bigger." Aunt Qiao looked at Jiang Li's bulging belly. "It looks like it will only be in the next two days."
Jiang Li raised his hand and gently placed it on the round belly.
She also felt that the baby in her belly was very active today.
Having had this experience once before, she also felt that the birth would take place in the next two days.
"You must have a good rest these two days. My silly son is always clumsy. Did he hurt you when he brought you back?"
Jiang Li thought about the way back. Although Hei Duo was fast, he was very steady and took good care of her on his back.
