Hou Xiang took a bite of broccoli with some doubt.
"Hmm... it tastes a bit strange, not as good as meat."
After tasting everything in the salad, Hou Xiang gave a fair evaluation.
These things were just boiled with water and a little salt, so they were naturally not as delicious as dishes with seasonings.
Fox Jiaojiao had expected Hou Xiang to say this, and patiently explained, "You gain weight because you eat too much fatty meat. Fatty meat contains too much fat. Eat more vegetables and fruits, eat less fatty meat, and walk more, and you will lose weight easily."
"How do you know I like to eat fatty meat?"
Hou Xiang was shocked, and he turned his body to the side, revealing a large bunch of fatty meat that was being roasted on the fire behind him.
It was greasy, and the roasted oil was dripping drop by drop. Just looking at it made him feel greasy.
The corners of Foxy's mouth twitched involuntarily, and she guessed it right.
Females in the beast world basically gain weight from the moment they become pregnant, and a big part of the reason is that they eat fat meat desperately and sit at home all day without going out.
Even after giving birth to puppies, they only look after the puppies at the door, and all the housework is done by males. It would be strange if they don't gain weight.
Hou Xiang looked at the sizzling fat meat reluctantly, gritted his teeth, "Okay, I listen to you, I won't eat fat meat in the future!"
That sad expression on his face, as if he had given up something important.
Foxy looked at it and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
After delivering the slimming meal, Foxy described the table, chairs and benches to Hou Xiang, and Hou Xiang immediately patted his chest and promised that she would come to pick them up in two days.
Hu Jiaojiao brought an empty wooden basin and bowls and spoons home. When she was about to reach the door, Long Ling'er suddenly shouted in surprise, "Mom, there are beastmen in the yard!" There were
too many beastmen who came to the house to cause trouble these days, and Long Ling'er was in a state of fear
. When she saw the figure of a stranger in the yard, she immediately became alert.
Hu Jiaojiao looked up and saw a strange male standing in the yard.
"It's okay, mom is here." She patted Long Ling'er's head gently and walked back quickly.
Long Ling'er followed closely.
Several cubs in the family were standing in the yard. Long Yu saw Hu Jiaojiao and Long Ling'er coming back and running out with a few little ones.
Long Yu said to Hu Jiaojiao with a serious face, "An orc is looking for you."
It seemed that he was not looking for trouble, so Hu Jiaojiao nodded and hurried over.
The orcs in the yard saw Hu Jiaojiao coming back and walked out with a dark face, "Hu Jiaojiao, the tribe leader asked me to call you to the picking team, hurry up, everyone is waiting for you."
So that was it.
Hu Jiaojiao remembered that she had told the tribe leader last time that she wanted to join the picking team, and nodded in response, "Okay, I'll be there right away." She
turned around and handed the wooden basin to Long Ling'er, and reminded the kids not to run around and wait for her to come back.
Seeing her dawdling, the beastman urged her impatiently, "Are you ready? If you don't want to go, don't go. You're wasting everyone's time."
Foxy frowned slightly, thinking that she was indeed delayed by going out, so she didn't argue and replied, "Okay, I'll be right there."
The original body usually bullied the weak and feared the strong in the tribe. The beastman just thought that Foxy was giving in. He snorted coldly and walked away without waiting for Foxy to catch up.
The beastman was tall and strong, and his steps were fast. Foxy had to trot to catch up.
Twenty minutes later, the two had arrived at the entrance of the tribe.
There were three male beastmen standing at the entrance of the tribe. One of them, Foxy recognized, was the chief she had met before, and there were five or six females.
After the beastman brought Vixen, he returned to the team, as if it was embarrassing to stand with Vixen.
Vixen walked up to the tribe leader and said, "Tribal leader, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
The tribe leader waved his hand and said, "It's okay, the females haven't arrived yet."
He was surprised in his heart. He didn't expect Vixen to really come. He just thought Vixen was in a momentary mood and would not come at all. When
Vixen heard this, she knew that the beastman just now was dissatisfied with the original body and deliberately urged her. She didn't take it seriously, nodded, and waited with the other females.
When several females saw Vixen approaching, they all stood aside.
It seemed that she was something dirty and they didn't want to be associated with her at all.
Hu Jiaojiao had already gotten used to it, and stood there with a changed face. After waiting for about ten minutes, five or six more female mistresses arrived, including Lu Mian'er, Hu Jing, and Lu Cuicui.
Ying Yuan escorted Lu Mian'er over, and when he saw Hu Jiaojiao there, his face immediately turned cold, "Why are you here too!"
Hu Jiaojiao glanced at him and didn't intend to pay attention to him.
Seeing that Hu Jiaojiao ignored him, Ying Yuan frowned, his face darkened, and he took two steps closer, lowering his voice.
In a voice that only the two of them could hear, she said, "Fox Jiaojiao, don't try to play any tricks. I told you, I don't like you. If you dare to bully Lu Mian'er, I will strangle you to death."
Fox Jiaojiao raised her eyelids and looked at Yingyuan like a fool.
Is this guy suffering from paranoia?
She was just standing here, why did he always have such a rich imagination and make up a big drama in his mind that she was going to persecute him and Lu Mian'er?
Fox Jiaojiao rolled her eyes at him and simply turned her back to him, ignoring the fact.
She really couldn't understand why the original body treated this narcissistic guy as a master. What did she want? Was it
because he was narcissistic, because he had a bad face, or because he said something unpleasant?
Yingyuan was so angry that his face turned black.
"Ayuan, what's wrong?" Lu Mian'er also came over and held Yingyuan's arm worriedly.
Upon seeing Lu Mian'er, the expression on Yingyuan's face softened instantly, and his voice became gentle, "It's okay, I have to go to the hunting team today, so I can't accompany you. You and Hu Jing are together, be careful, if any beastman bullies you, tell me."
As he said that, he deliberately stabbed Hu Jiaojiao with a knife-like look of displeasure.
Lu Mian'er nodded understandingly, "You go, I'm fine."
Lu Cuicui also pretended to be reserved in front of Yingyuan, "Brother Yingyuan, don't worry, Sister Hu Jing and I will take good care of Sister Mian'er."
However, Ying Yuan did not even look at her. He reluctantly moved his eyes away from Lu Mian'er and turned to look for the hunting team.
Lu Cuicui felt a little embarrassed when she was ignored.
She pursed her lips and suppressed the jealousy in her eyes. She raised her eyes again and took Lu Mian'er's arm affectionately.
"Sister Mian'er, you are so lucky. Brother Ying Yuan waited until this time to send you off and then went to find the hunting team. Unlike a certain female, she doesn't even have a male at home, and her only partner is a waste..."
The previous words immediately attracted envious glances from the females around.
All the beastmen in the tribe knew that Lu Mian'er was the least favored female in the Lu family. Her status in the family was not as high as her brother Lu Ligao. However, she was favored by the strongest male in the tribe, Yingyuan. From then on, her status rose rapidly and she became the most envied female in the tribe. The males
who wanted to mate with her lined up from the south of the tribe to the north of the tribe.
After hearing what Lu Cuicui said later, the females looked at the isolated Hu Jiaojiao with contemptuous smiles.
Hu Jiaojiao would come to join the picking team?
Maybe she knew that Yingyuan would pick up Lu Mian'er and came to see Yingyuan on purpose!
