"Mom, why is your mouth red and swollen?"

In the evening, several children came home. Long Yao sat at the dining table. For the first time, his eyes were not fixed on the food, but on Hu Jiaojiao's face with concern.

"Is mom sick?" Long Zhong heard this and immediately turned to look at Hu Jiaojiao.

He reacted the fastest. He took off his shoes almost without hesitation, stood up on the chair, stood on tiptoe and stretched out his hand just enough to touch Hu Jiaojiao's forehead.

"Sick? Mom is sick!" Long Ling'er held down her restless hand and looked at Hu Jiaojiao with worry, "Mom, are you feeling unwell?"

Long Yu, Long Xiu, and Yin Cang, the three children, had already pushed away their chairs.

Yin Cang was about to open the door, and the remaining two cubs, one holding a hood and the other holding a scarf, said in unison:

"Let's take mother to see a witch doctor!"

It's no small matter for a female to be sick.

The cubs felt very guilty, blaming themselves for not spending enough time at home recently and not taking good care of mother, causing her to get sick from overwork.

They were so incompetent.

When Long Mo came out of the kitchen, he saw the cubs in a fierce battle.

"Ahem..." Foxy coughed lightly, covered her mouth with one hand, and stroked Long Yao's head with the other hand as if stroking her own hand, explaining awkwardly: "My mother's mouth is red to begin with."

"And you, don't make blind guesses, my mother is fine, she's not sick, sit down and eat quickly."

Foxy looked at the other kids.

Long Xiu was the smartest, and reacted immediately, putting down his scarf and saying:

"Sorry, mother, we were wrong."

Long Yu also reacted very quickly, and pulled Long Zhong off the chair, and sat back on the chair together, "I'm hungry, mother, let's eat quickly."

Long Mo glanced at the kids, walked to Foxy with his slender legs, and helped her pull a chair.

The fox-like girl glanced at him coquettishly, with a reproachful look, as if to say: It's all your fault!

Long Mo smiled, nodded slightly, and accepted all her complaints.

Seeing this, Long Ling'er put her two palms on her temples to block her sight, and lowered her head to look at the dishes in front of her silently.

Daddy is out front.

Be careful.

Long Yao is the only one in the family who is not precocious. Hearing this, he frowned seriously, thought for a moment, and asked in confusion:

"But mother's mouth was not so red before, and mother's mouth was swollen!"

He is really a little clever!

Long Yao was even a little proud, with his hands on his waist proudly, looking at the other cubs as if he had discovered a new continent.

"You don't care about mother, and you can't even see this. Xiaowu is the most careful..."

The faces of several kids darkened.

Long Yu shook his head at him.

Long Ling'er winked and signaled him to stop talking.

Long Yaosi was not panicked at all. He concluded seriously:

"Mother, your mouth must have been bitten by a bug!"

"Poof!"

Foxy Jiaojiao just wanted to drink a sip of soup to suppress her surprise, but it all spurted out.

Sitting opposite her was Long Yao.

Long Yao's voice stopped abruptly.

The soup he had just taken suddenly sprayed on his face.

The wet soup flowed down his hair and chin, and dripped onto the table with a "pat, pat" sound.

Long Yao was stunned, his red eyes were wide open, his face was full of disbelief.

Several children covered their eyes at the same time.

It was too much to watch!

"I'm sorry, Yao'er, mother didn't mean it." The foxy girl reacted and quickly put down the bowl to apologize to Long Yao.

"Mother..."

Long Yao's mouth flattened instantly, and his soft and sticky voice was filled with tears.

His two eyes were originally red, and now they were even more tearful, turning into poached eggs, with an extremely aggrieved look.

"Mother, I'll take Xiaowu to wipe it." Long Yu was the first to bear the brunt, and walked forward to pull Long Yao to the backyard. Before Long Yao burst into tears, he took him away from this "place of right and wrong" without stopping.

Finally calmed down.

Several kids breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

It was too difficult...

With Xiaowu around, it was really too difficult to have a good meal!

After dinner, the kids all fell asleep.

Foxy Jiaojiao caught Long Mo in an angry lecture:

"It's all your fault. You bothered that one in broad daylight, and the kids all noticed something was wrong!"

"Which one?"

Long Mo raised his eyebrows and asked knowingly.

Foxy Jiaojiao glared at him, almost stamping his feet in anger, "You are still pretending to be stupid."

Long Mo suddenly raised his chin slightly, bent down and moved closer to Foxy Jiaojiao's cheek, with only a few inches between them.

"Okay, then we'll come at night from now on."

Foxy Jiaojiao: "!!!"

Is she discussing this!

Before Hu Jiaojiao could say anything, Long Mo picked her up.

"Long Mo, what are you doing now?" Hu Jiaojiao screamed.

"It's already night."

Long Mo's voice was calm and his low, mellow and pleasant voice was touching.

Another sleepless night.

The next day, Hu Jiaojiao didn't get up in the morning, so Long Mo volunteered to torture the cubs with breakfast, and then took the drawings and catapult samples to the tribe leader.

In the next ten days, Long Mo stayed with the tribe leader during the day, teaching the beastmen to read drawings and make catapults every day.

Just as Hu Jiaojiao imagined, it was not so easy for the beastmen to learn, and it took a total of fifteen days to complete the first catapult.

And at night, Long Mo is still diligent.

He worked hard with Hu Jiaojiao to complete the great task of having a baby.

One day,

Long Mo was about to go out, but when he opened the door, he found Ying Yuan standing at the door of his house.

"What are you doing here?"

Long Mo asked with a stern face.

Facing the male that Hu Jiaojiao had liked before, he could not possibly show a good face to Ying Yuan.

"Do you think I want to come?" Ying Yuan snorted coldly, his face full of reluctance.

As soon as he finished speaking, a hand reached out from behind and gently pinched his waist. A soft reprimanding voice came from behind:

"Yingyuan, don't talk to Long Mo like that."

Lu Mian'er walked out from behind Yingyuan and smiled apologetically at Long Mo. "Sorry, we didn't mean any harm. I heard that Jiaojiao hasn't been out for more than ten days, so I came to see her."

As she said that, she asked Yingyuan to hand over the two freshly killed sika deer to Long Mo.

He explained:

"I heard that it was Jiaojiao who taught me how to find the well. I also want to thank Jiaojiao. This is the prey I just caught yesterday. Let Jiaojiao have a taste of it."

As winter goes on, it becomes increasingly difficult to catch fresh prey.

Although this amount of prey is nothing to Long Mo.

But Lu Mian'er only has Ying Yuan as his partner. The amount of prey he can catch in a day is limited. Lu Mian'er can still generously send such a big prey, which is enough to show her sincerity.

Long Mo still had no expression on his face, but the indifference in his eyes was no longer as strong as before. He said coldly: "Leave it."

Although it was the prey caught by Ying Yuan, it was Lu Mian'er's intention.

He did not refuse without authorization.

Just because he himself does not need friends does not mean Jiaojiao does not need them.
