Jiang Li closed the door tightly to prevent outsiders from seeing him.
Then put Junrui in the wooden barrel.
As soon as the soft and white body touched the water, the legs immediately turned into a blue fish tail.
He swam happily in the water, as if he had learned it all by himself, constantly slapping the water surface with his tail, stirring up layer of water splashes.
Jun Rui's originally dry lips gradually became rosy, and his complexion looked much better than before.
He slowly put his whole body into the water, and suddenly came out, and the splashes of water wet Jiang Li's face.
"Hahaha."
Looking at her soaked appearance, Jun Rui kept smiling with his mouth open.
Jiang Li helplessly wiped the water off his face with his hands.
"Xiao Rui, you can't play like this. It's hard to clean up the water all over the floor."
Jun Rui blinked his big, confused eyes, as if he understood, nodded, and continued to sink in the water.
This time he calmed down and wasn't as naughty as before.
Just like the little fish at the bottom of the Sana River, they spit out bubbles constantly and curiously.
He came in front of Jiang Li, gently hooked his small hand around Jiang Li's big hand, and raised his head to look at Jiang Li.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly again, revealing a lovely and pure smile.
This scene touched the softest part of Jiang Li's heart. She raised her other hand and gently rubbed Jun Rui's little face.
"Oh, my Xiao Rui is getting cuter and cuter." There was tenderness in his eyes.
"That's right! Male mermaids are the most handsome. Xiao Rui has his gender determined at birth, and as he grows older, the characteristics of a male mermaid will gradually emerge."
After Junrui's play just now, the water in the wooden barrel became much less. At this time, Xiaojie brought another bucket of water and poured it in.
Seeing the water level increase, Jun Rui happily swung his tail and laughed happily.
The little turtle looked at Jun Rui with a smile, and echoed what Xiao Jie had just said, "Yes, with a sturdy body and noble temperament... he will surely charm all the females on land!"
Jiang Li casually placed his arms on the wooden barrel.
Seeing the two of them looking at Jun Rui so obsessed, she couldn't help but laugh.
Before she even grew up, Jun Rui has already gained two little fans.
At noon, Aunt Qiao made a delicious stew.
The three people who had eaten and drunk their fill continued to look at Jun Rui who was unwilling to come out of the water.
But the issue of the Black Bear Tribe's food has always been on her mind. Seeing Xiaojie, Xiaogui and Junrui having fun, she quietly left the room.
I wanted to find Heiduo to ask about the fruit, but I happened to see him preparing to leave with a newly woven straw mat on his back.
"Heiduo, what are you going to do?"
Hearing Jiang Li's voice, Hei Duo stopped and turned to look.
"These straw mats have been there for a few days. I plan to go to the evening market to sell them."
When Jiang Li heard that Hei Duo was going to the evening market, he walked over excitedly.
"Are you going so early?" We had just finished lunch.
Heiduo nodded and said, "I'm going to the Leopard Tribe's market, which is a long way away, so I have to go there in advance."
"Then I'll go with you!"
Hei Duo was slightly stunned. Although he was a little confused, he thought that Jiang Li must want to buy something, so he nodded and agreed.
"good."
"But first we have to go to the fields and pick some fruit."
Jiang Li took out the largest bamboo basket from the corner of the yard.
"What are you picking fruits for?" Heiduo was confused.
Jiang Li gave him a brief account of what he was considering.
"I thought about it. You guys handed over so much food, and the straw mats can't be sold for many spirit stones. You will definitely not be able to survive the winter. There are not many fruit trees here, and the orcs from other tribes also like to eat fruit. I plan to pick some fruit and sell it at the market. Besides, the fruit we grow is better than others, and we can definitely sell it for a good price!"
Heiduo thought about it and realized that it was indeed as Jiang Li said, the fruits on the tree were bigger than those sold in the market, and could be used to control water.
But just now...
Heiduo's cheeks suddenly turned red, and he opened his mouth to ask Jiang Li in a low voice.
"Xiao Li, you just said...our family..."
"Oh? Yes." Jiang Li didn't react to what was wrong.
Her mind is now filled with selling fruits to earn spirit stones, how can she think of so much else?
Besides, seeing Heiduo's blushing face, I thought it was because of the strong sun that got him sunburned. After all, it was really hot these days.
"Let's go quickly and don't waste time."
Before leaving, Jiang Li repeatedly instructed Xiaojie and Xiaogui, then followed Heiduo to the fields.
Heiduo was very agile and climbed up the tree in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Li, who was standing under the tree, used a bamboo basket to catch the fruits he threw down. In a short while, the bamboo basket was full.
"Okay! Let's go!"
Jiang Li was about to put the bamboo basket on her back when Hei Duo reached out to stop her.
"Xiao Li, the fruit is too heavy. Let me carry it."
"No, it's just a basket of fruit. I'm not that fragile."
Heiduo was carrying several straw mats on his back, which was quite heavy. How could she give him the fruit?
Jiang Li dodged his hand and quickly carried the bamboo basket on his back, which was not very heavy.
She raised her hand and patted his strong arm, looking at him with a smile, "Let's go."
Seeing that Jiang Li insisted on carrying the fruit, Hei Duo, who was not good at talking and couldn't argue with her, had to nod in agreement.
Heiduo walked very fast, and even carrying a straw mat did not affect his speed at all.
But in order to consider Jiang Li's feelings, he had to slow down his pace.
The road he chose was exactly the same forest that Jiang Li walked through last time.
The journey is shorter if we go around the Sana River.
Jiang Li didn't like silence and was always chatting with Hei Duo.
But because he didn't talk much and always answered with "Yeah, oh," Jiang Li gradually lost his ability to chat.
After they had walked half the distance, the taciturn Hei Duo took the initiative to start a conversation with Jiang Li.
"Xiao Li, I have never understood why you are so kind to us, even to the Black Bear Clan?"
Heiduo tilted his head and glanced at Jiang Li secretly.
The scorching sun made her eyes narrow slightly, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead and straight nose.
Her profile is also very beautiful, with soft lines, especially when she narrows her eyes slightly, she looks like a cunning kitten.
It's just that as soon as she came here, she solved their tribe's land problem and even considered their winter food.
Obviously, these have nothing to do with her, why does she do so much?
After a moment of silence, Jiang Li gently opened his thin lips and slowly answered his question.
"I'm not doing this because of the Black Bear Tribe, I'm doing this because of you and Aunt Qiao."
"Even though there was a shortage of food, Aunt Qiao was willing to spend a lot of money to buy meat for me. You even helped me hide Xiao Rui's identity. I did all this just to repay you for your kindness to us."
