Hearing this, Hu Min glanced outside the house, and then explained with an indifferent face:
"Outside... it's Lu Li's mother."
"When we were harvesting the earth fruit before, she didn't want to go and didn't want to work. The tribe leader told her at that time that she wouldn't get any earth fruit if she didn't work. Now that winter is coming, she's pestering the tribe leader for earth fruit and rolling around."
"I've never seen such a shameless female. She's not as good as a cub at her age..."
Hu Min explained and complained.
After listening to Hu Min's words, Hu Jiaojiao understood the general situation.
It turned out that Lu Mu didn't want to work and wanted to eat for free.
In the past, Lu Mu would occasionally participate in the picking team, but she didn't participate in the harvest of the earth fruit planted in the field. Lu Fu was useless, and the stored food was not enough to survive the winter.
She could only shamelessly go to the chief to act like a rogue.
"It's something that Deer Mother could do." Hu Jiaojiao said twice and didn't ask any more questions.
After saying goodbye to Hu Min and Hu Qiang, she went home.
Not long after she walked out, she saw Deer Mother and the chief.
"Lu Li's mother, I have told you many times that everything today is your own choice. You are holding me here, and I have no earth fruit to give you."
The chief was talking to Deer Mother with a stern face.
He had just arranged the affairs of the tribe and was going home, but was stopped by Deer Mother who appeared on the way. The other party was a female, and she was clinging to him. He couldn't get away for a while, so he could only waste time with her outside.
"Chief, are you going to watch our family starve to death? The tribe has harvested so many native fruits, what's wrong if you give me some..."
The deer mother took the patriarch's arm and refused to let him go.
The patriarch's face turned a little darker.
"Those fruits were grown by other orcs with hard work. You and your family didn't work,
so why should I give them to you?" "Planting a little is planting, and growing more is planting. Can't you just treat it as planting for me?" Deer Mother said matter-of-factly.
Show off your shamelessness to the fullest.
Seeing the ugly look on the patriarch's face, she probably knew that the soil fruit was not available, so she settled for the next best thing.
"Even if there is no soil fruit, just give us five hundred kilograms of charcoal!"
Because she is too lazy to cook, she has no supplies at home.
The chief's face was completely gloomy.
He had been tolerant enough to Deer Mother, and other materials were distributed unconditionally, but these were obtained through the labor of other beastmen.
If he distributed them to Deer Mother today, other beastmen would follow suit tomorrow and not work at all. In the future, they would all be lazy and sit back to enjoy the fruits of others' labor. Who would be willing to work?
"Nothing! Nothing!"
The chief pulled her away with a cold face, and was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
Deer Mother was not willing to let him go, and wanted to continue to pester her.
"Chief." At this time, Fox called out coquettishly and walked over quickly.
When he saw Hu Jiaojiao, the clan leader's expression eased a little, "Jiaojiao, why are you out when it's snowing? Go back quickly, it's cold outside and you won't freeze."
He was afraid that the deer mother would also cause trouble for Hu Jiaojiao, so he sent Hu Jiaojiao away first.
Who knew that when the deer mother saw Hu Jiaojiao, she shuddered like a mouse seeing a cat and took several steps back. She
didn't even dare to look at Hu Jiaojiao.
Since the last incident, she had a shadow on Hu Jiaojiao's family. On the one hand, she was afraid, and on the other hand, she resented Hu Jiaojiao's cruelty, so she was not active in burning charcoal, smoking meat, and collecting earth fruits proposed by Hu Jiaojiao.
She didn't even do it at all.
Deer Mother thought that since she was a female, the chief would not let her starve to death, and she could enjoy the tribe's supplies even if she did not work. She
completely ignored the chief's repeated reminders.
As a result, while other beastmen's homes were full of supplies, her home was still just a broken wooden house, empty and shabby, without even a decent animal skin.
"It's okay, chief."
Fox Jiaojiao smiled and walked over, turned to look at Deer Mother, with a smile that did not reach her eyes.
"You want earth fruit and charcoal?"
Deer Mother did not dare to say anything, she still had some thoughts in her heart.
Maybe Fox Jiaojiao would suddenly be kind enough to give her earth fruit.
"Jiaojiao, you can't give it to her." The chief on the side was anxious and said nervously, fearing that Fox Jiaojiao would be fooled by Deer Mother's pitiful appearance.
Fox Jiaojiao sneered, clenched her fist, and made a creaking sound. "You can have it, but you have to pay a price. Don't blame me if you lose your arms and legs."
Hearing this, Deer Mother immediately shook her head like a rattle and waved her hands to retreat.
The shadow of being beaten by Long Mo before was still vivid in her mind.
"No, no, I don't want anything. I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home. I'll go back first!"
After saying that, she turned around and ran away.
What earth fruit, what charcoal, nothing is more important than life.
The tribe leader was stunned.
When did Deer Mother become so easy to talk to?
Jiaojiao actually let her leave obediently with just a few words.
"Tribal leader, the weather is cold, you should go back soon, I should go home too." Fox Jiaojiao's voice brought the tribe leader back to his thoughts.
The chief was still wearing short clothes and had no time to change into thicker clothes. If the males wore so little in winter, they would get sick.
"Okay." The chief nodded with a smile.
He knew that Fox Jiaojiao was helping him.
The chief had no partner and no stone house, so he immediately moved into the cave with a group of males without partners.
Fortunately, their supplies had been moved into the cave a long time ago, so they didn't have to move supplies in a hurry and could just move in directly.
After the mother deer went back, she also moved into the cave with the father deer and Lu Li.
She cursed all the way and took out all the anger she had received from Fox Jiaojiao on the father deer.
"Why did I find such a useless male like you who can't hunt and can't build a stone house!"
"Other females have stone houses to live in, but I have to live in a cave with you males. Why am I so unlucky..."
Deer Father has been feeling very aggrieved recently.
He is weak and used to rely on Yingyuan and Lu Mian'er for support. Now Lu Mian'er doesn't support him anymore, and the beastmen in the tribe are unwilling to teach him how to build a stone house. After an autumn, there is no food left in the family.
Any sound in the cave can be infinitely amplified.
Mother Deer's scolding attracted many males to watch the fun.
"Scold! You only know how to scold!"
Father Deer felt that his face was being crushed by Mother Deer on the ground. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and suddenly roared and exploded.
"You are the same, aren't you? Other females are collecting earth fruits, why don't you go? If you hadn't allowed Lu Li to offend Hu Jiaojiao, I wouldn't have been able to build a stone house and make charcoal!"
"You! How dare you talk back!" The mother deer widened her eyes in disbelief.
She was immediately angry and rushed up to wrestle with the father deer.
Not long after, a kind male came up and pulled them apart.
Both of them were bruised and swollen, and their noses were bleeding all over the floor.
After the mother deer finished beating, she realized that she seemed to have forgotten something. She turned around and saw that Lu Li had already hidden in the corner and had eaten up the remaining ten pounds of meat they had.
He was sucking his fingers, still not satisfied.
The mother deer wailed and sat down on the ground.
"Ah! This is our last food..."
