She realized that although the cubs had accepted her, they were still cautious most of the time, fearing that they would make mistakes.

She was like this when she was a child, because her parents often told her that she was a burden, and her relatives told her that she was an unloved child, which led to her feeling inferior for a long time.

The cubs must have already formed such a shadow in the tribe before, which is why they live so cautiously.

It is true that she hopes the cubs will be sensible, but she does not want her cubs to live like she did when she was a child, without confidence.

The four cubs did not seem to expect that Foxy would think this way, and they were a little at a loss for a moment.

Their rights?

Do cubs have their own rights?

Seeing that the cubs were all in a daze, Hu Jiaojiao smiled, stood up, and took the hands of Long Yao and Long Zhong:

"Let's go, mother will take you to make delicious food that you can share."

She didn't have much, but she had a lot of supplies.

The cubs had made new friends and wanted to do things, so as a mother, she must support them with all her strength!

Long Mo also walked forward, raised his hand to appreciate the heads of Long Yu and Long Xiu, and said in a deep voice:

"Your father will not starve you to death, do whatever you want."

Although he was strict with the cubs on weekdays, he loved his cubs very much in his heart.

Except for him and Jiaojiao, no one could let his cubs suffer grievances!

Fox Jiaojiao brought the cubs to the kitchen, where there were several bags of new supplies that the clan leader had sent yesterday.

There were mostly foods that the clan leader had never seen before. The clan leader didn't know how to eat them, but he guessed that Fox Jiaojiao would definitely eat them, so he sent them all to her.

Fox Jiaojiao opened one of the bags, and it was a big bag of fresh sunflower seeds.

Winter is the season for

eating sunflower seeds! "Mom will fry some sunflower seeds for you today." Fox Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes and said with a smile.

She used to live with her grandparents, and her grandmother often collected seeds of various melons to fry and eat. When she was a child, there were no snacks, and this was the most delicious snack.

"Pumpkin seeds!"

"What are pumpkin seeds?"

"Can this small black thing be eaten?"

The four cubs asked questions at the same time, surrounding Hu Jiaojiao and making a rare noise.

Hu Jiaojiao looked at the cubs and couldn't help but remember that when she was a child, she also stood by the stove like this, waiting for food with full of expectation.

"Long Mo, make a fire."

Hu Jiaojiao looked at Long Mo, took a basin, poured about ten pounds of pumpkin seeds from the bag, and put it on the stove.

Long Mo glanced at the four followers behind Hu Jiaojiao, his eyes flashed with a hint of deepness, retracted his gaze, and cooperated with Hu Jiaojiao to make a fire.

The two of them had a tacit understanding.

After a while, the pot was heated, and Hu Jiaojiao poured ten kilograms of melon seeds directly into the pot and kept stir-frying.

The beastman had a big appetite, and her pot was also very big, two or three times the size of an ordinary pot, so she could stir-fry a lot of food at a time.

Soon, wisps of white smoke came out of the pot.

Hu Jiaojiao added powdered salt and increased the speed to stir-fry continuously until the surface of the melon seeds turned slightly brown. Only then did Long Mo turn off the fire and quickly put the melon seeds into the large bowl just now.

The four cubs subconsciously took a deep breath.

They smelled a faint burnt aroma.

It was not the kind of bitter and burnt smell, but the burnt smell of pepper and salt, which was very good.

Several cubs swallowed their saliva at the same time.

It smells so good!

It looks delicious...

Foxy Jiaojiao took four small animal skin bags, put one bag for each animal, and handed them to the kids.

She peeled a roasted melon seed and showed the kernel inside to the kids, "The kernel inside is the melon seed, the shell is not edible."

Long Mo also watched, ready to learn how to peel it and give it to Jiaojiao to eat, when the melon seed kernel suddenly stretched to his mouth.

He subconsciously opened his mouth and took the melon seed kernel with his hand.

"Taste it." Foxy Jiaojiao's eyes curved, looking at him expectantly, "Is it delicious?"

The melon seed kernel was small, so it was inevitable that it would touch the fingertips, but Foxy Jiaojiao didn't care.

However, a strange color flashed across Long Mo's eyes, and it seemed as if an invisible flame was gradually ignited in his golden beast pupils.

"Hmm, delicious." He swallowed it in one gulp without even chewing it.

Foxy was speechless.

Is he Zhu Bajie? He

doesn't chew anything before eating?

Long Yao pinched the melon seeds, which were slightly larger than rice grains, with a slight look of disgust on his face, "They are so small, I wonder how many I need to eat to be full."

"No, if I peel them and eat them at the same time, I will consume energy. Then I will never be full, right?"

When he thought of this, he squinted his eyes blankly, with a silly and cute expression on his face.

Long Zhong raised his hand and flicked his forehead, "Eat yours, why are you talking so much? If you don't want to eat, give it to me."

Long Yao immediately stuffed it into his mouth, but ended up eating a mouthful of air, and the only melon seed kernel got stuck in the gap between his teeth that had not yet fully grown.

"..."

Long Yu and Long Xiu were more gentle, savoring it carefully, with satisfaction on their young faces.

How could you not stop eating such a small melon seed kernel?

"Is it delicious?" The coquettish girl looked at the kids who couldn't stop eating and asked with a smile.

"Delicious!" The three kids nodded in unison.

"Woo..." Only Long Yao opened his mouth wide, constantly picking at the melon seed kernel in his teeth in various postures.

Woo woo! Xiaowu hasn't tasted it yet!

Long Mo rubbed his brows, a trace of worry crossed his cold face.

Could his kid be smarter?

Seeing that the kids liked it, Hu Jiaojiao took out some sugar and milk and made a pot of caramel-flavored fried melon seeds and a pot of milk-flavored fried melon seeds.

Because Long Yao is greedy, Hu Jiaojiao made a lot of small animal skin snack bags, which came in handy now.

Hu Jiaojiao put different flavors of melon seeds into the bags separately, about thirty in total, with about half a pound in one bag, and then tightened the drawstring at the mouth of the bag to seal it. There

were still four or five pounds of melon seeds of each flavor left, so she put them in stone jars with better sealing properties, so that she could take them whenever she wanted to eat them in the future, and there was no need to worry about the taste being affected by air entering.

After making these, Hu Jiaojiao distributed the thirty small bags of melon seeds to the cubs.

"Take these melon seeds and share them with the cubs. If you want to eat anything in the future, just tell mother and mother will make it for you."

She rubbed Long Yu's head and said softly.

"Thank you... Mother." Long Yu felt the warmth on his head, took the small bag, and his childish voice gradually changed from hesitant to firm.

He looked at the dirty pot on the stove, put down the small bag, and ran to get the bucket, "Mom, I'll get you some water."

Because of frying melon seeds, the pot was all burnt, and a layer of milk and sugar was burned dry, so it looked black.

"Long Yu, wait..."

Before Hu Jiaojiao could stop him, Long Yu had already run out with the empty bucket.

She glanced at the pot that was already in a terrible state. The water tank at home was out of water. It was time to get some water back, so she followed Long Mo.

Long Yu came to the river with the bucket.

A thick layer of ice had formed on the river surface. Every day, the beastmen would come to break the ice to get water. However, after just one night, the opening from yesterday had frozen again.

Long Yu was a little confused.

He couldn't even get water?

When Hu Jiaojiao came out, she saw Long Yu transformed into a beast, using his two dragon claws to continuously scrape at the ice surface, like a little mole digging a hole.

However, the ice was too hard. After scraping for a long time, Long Yu only scraped off a thin layer of broken ice. There was still a long way to go

before the entire block of ice could be dug out.

Long Mo was responsible for fetching water for the family. Seeing Long Yu's difficult movements, Hu Jiaojiao realized how difficult it was for the beastmen to fetch water in winter.

She suddenly had an idea, and the corners of her lips slightly raised. She suddenly thought of a good idea...
