Chapter 57
Hui Ran and Hei Xi talked for a while, they were all about ordinary trivial matters, never mentioning the little bear cub.
After that, Hui Ran got up and went to the medicine doctor to ask about the curse.The sooner these problems are dealt with, the better.This time he didn't bring the little bear cub with him, and let the little bear cub and Xiao Fenjiao roll in the mud together.
During a meal together, Xiao Fen Jiao and Xiao Xiong Zai changed from disliked rivals to good friends.Xiao Fenjiao's speech was still slurred, and Little Xiong Cub could barely guess what he meant while listening.
During the period, the sleepy little Mo Lian was going to go into the house to sleep, but Xiao Fenjiao took the initiative to take out half of the eggshell, leaving little Mo Lian to sleep in the courtyard.Xiao Fenjiao was chatting excitedly with the little bear cub while hugging her elder brother's sleeping half eggshell.
Little Xiong Cub doesn't know much about the outside world, but compared to Little Fenjiao, he can be said to be well-informed.Most of the time, Little Bear Cub talks and Little Fen Jiao listens.Xiao Fenjiao and Xiao Molian have never left the range of Bibo Lake, they have never seen how colorful the outside world is.
Little Molian slept quietly with her eyes closed, while Xiao Fenjiao was full of interest in what the little bear cub saw and heard. He sat beside the little bear cub full of envy, listening to the little bear cub tell about those weird things.
Huge city, tall and thick walls, strong guards, rare monsters, rare treasures.There are all kinds of delicious and fun things, and the little bear cubs talk eloquently and proudly.
Xiao Fenjiao listened with gusto, fascinated by the outside world, especially the food in the outside world.
But little Molian completely regarded the bragging of the little bear cub as a lullaby that was not pleasant to listen to and a bit noisy.He doesn't care if the sleeping environment he is in is noisy, but he still prefers to go back to his room to sleep, he stays here just to give Xiao Fen Jiao a face.
Not long after, the cub who was describing the delicious food suddenly had a bitter face, and quietly looked around.
The gray dragon was not there, and the big black dragon and He Qing were not by their side either. The little bear cub pursed his mouth in displeasure and was very depressed: "Do you eat those every day?"
Little Xiong Cub didn't specify what the so-called ones were, but Xiao Fenjiao vaguely understood what the other party meant. What Xiong Cub said was fish soup.It's just that Little Xiong Cub didn't know that what He Qing knew was not just fish soup, he also learned many other dishes. This time, because of Dahei Jiao's strong dissuasion, He Qing chose it because of the limited cooking time. Most take away fish soup.
Xiao Fenjiao nodded and answered Little Xiong Cub, Daddy often cooks, but he and Xiao Molian don't eat much, almost all his father eats.Like Little Xiong Cub, Xiao Fenjiao is afraid of the food cooked by He Qing's father.
Fortunately, the diet of Xiao Fenjiao and Xiao Molian is entirely in charge of Granny Bei Ke, and Daddy's cooking is only for father.Xiao Fen Jiao thought, maybe her father's preferences are different from theirs.
Regarding this, Little Xiong Cub snorted, and complained unhappily: "Your father is so bad, the hospitality actually took out these things. It's so disgusting, I almost spit it out!"
If it weren't for the conditions given by Hui Ran, he wouldn't eat it even if he was killed.
The moment Little Bear Cub complained about He Qing, Xiao Fen Jiao suddenly felt dissatisfied, he wrinkled his face, and protested repeatedly "ahhh" to Little Bear Cub unhappily.
The fish soup is boiled by father himself, even if the cub doesn't like it, it can't be said that father is bad.Daddy is a good daddy, the best daddy.
What's more, my father likes to eat the meals that my father cooks, and he praises my father every time he finishes eating.Cubs can't speak ill of Daddy just because they have different tastes!
Facing the angry little Fenjiao, Little Xiong Cub stared at the sky speechlessly.Xiao Fenjiao is extremely defensive, and He Qing's poor cooking skills are not allowed to be said by others, which is simply unreasonable.
The corner of Little Bear Cub's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he quickly regained his composure.My father said that he is an older child, and an older child will not haggle over a child who is only half his height.
The little guy's emotions come and go quickly.In a blink of an eye, they forgot about this dark meal.
Xiao Fenjiao proudly led the little bear cubs to watch her own island in the lake.Whether it is the grain in the field, the herbs in the medicine field, or the seedlings in the orchard, they are all planted by Xiaofenjiao and Xiaomolian.
Some of them haven't germinated, and some are in a half-dead state. Even so, Xiaofen Jiao still holds out her small chest and is proud of everything she has done.
He dug every hole and filled every square of soil with his own hands. This island in the lake is full of the hard work of him and his brother.
My father said that when the grain is ripe and the fruit trees bear fruit, Xiaofenjiao can pick and eat it by himself.My father also said that the food grown by oneself tastes the best.
Xiao Fenjiao firmly believed in this.
Little Bear Cub is not very interested in Xiaofenjiao's digging and filling. Even though there are many kinds of seeds here, compared with the vast world outside, there are undoubtedly so few that it is not worth mentioning.
However, in order to maintain the fragile friendship between him and Xiao Fen Jiao, everyone reached a unified camp, Xiao Xiong Cub decided not to discourage each other's enthusiasm, and let Xiao Fen Jiao go all the way to introduce.
After listening to it for a while, Little Xiong Cub couldn't help being a little surprised: "You only play on the island every day, don't you go to the shore of the lake?"
Little Fenjiao is really pitiful, the scope of daily activities is so small.
Hearing these doubts from the little bear cub, Xiao Fenjiao looked at the little bear cub in confusion.His range of activities is large enough, and he can run around the entire island in the lake as he pleases.
Ever since his father carried him and little Molian to play in Bibo Lake, his father also allowed him and little Molian to expand the playing area appropriately.
In Xiao Fenjiao's heart, Bibo Lake is very big, and he couldn't understand why the little bear cub thinks Bibo Lake is small.
As for leaving Bibo Lake and going ashore to play, Xiao Fenjiao didn't have much idea.If his father doesn't allow it, he won't go.Moreover, when Grandma Bei Ke combs his hair, she will also remind him that there are many dangers on the shore, and Xiao Fenjiao should not run around, causing father and father to worry.
To some extent, Xiao Fenjiao is very obedient, after all, Grandma Shell is very important, and she gives him a lot of delicious food every time.
Despite the adults' persuasion, Xiao Fenjiao has little interest in the lakeshore.
Most of the time, Xiaofenjiao is a dragon's tail, and he has not been able to walk very well on his legs.He is used to running on the island in the lake, jumping up and down whatever he wants, once he lands, the environment is not used to him, he needs time to adapt slowly.
What's more, the Jiao clan has the habit of occupying territory. Xiao Fenjiao went ashore for a stroll, ran around all the corners, and inadvertently divided the area she was in, but there were forests and mountains, not lakes. The Jiao clan prefers lakes, even if there is no battle The thoughtful little Fenjiao is no exception.
Little Xiong Cub secretly sympathizes with Xiao Fen Jiao, the Jiao clan from Xiaohu Lake has pitifully little knowledge.
Of course, he won't hit Xiaofen Jiao directly.He didn't know when his father would arrive, and he didn't know when Hui Ran planned to leave, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait here.If Xiao Fenjiao ignored him, he would have to work hard to find other playmates.
Playing alone is always a bit lonely.
Little Xiong Cub suppressed the fishy smell in his mouth, he suddenly remembered something, his eyes lit up.At this moment, Hui Ran is not here, Hei Xi is not here, He Qing is not here, it is a good time to go out.
He lowered his voice and asked Xiao Fenjiao: "There is one thing that is very delicious, do you want to eat it?"
When Xiao Fenjiao heard what the little bear cub said, her eyes lit up, shining with excitement.He nodded again and again, "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
He wants to eat, wants to eat!What is there to eat for Little Bear Cub, would you like to share some with him?
However, the little bear cub did not take out delicious food from his pocket as Xiao Fenjiao wished, but pointed to the woods on the shore: "The food is not here for me, it is there."
Xiao Fenjiao stared at the direction of the forest sullenly, and stretched out her hand to scratch her silver-white hair.
in the woods?
Father said that he was not allowed to go ashore secretly alone, but he really wanted to know what was delicious, he really wanted to eat, what should he do.
Little Xiong Cub saw that Xiao Fenjiao was hesitating, and decisively increased the intensity of the temptation. He swallowed as if recalling a delicacy: "There are beehives in the woods, and there is a delicacy in the beehives. It is very sweet."
Little Bear Cub loves to dig out the beehive, but, seeing the beehive in front of his eyes, Gray Flood Dragon doesn't allow it, so Little Bear Cub is very depressed.
He swallowed the fish soup with great pains, no matter what, he should give some compensation, a change of taste.
Xiao Fenjiao was heartbroken when he heard it.
Honeycomb, sweet, delicious!
But he can't go ashore alone, now that little Molian is sleeping, she won't be able to wake up for a while.
Xiao Fen Jiao told Little Xiong Cub about her troubles, and Little Xiong Cub understood Xiao Fen Jiao's worries from the babbling words.
Little Xiong Cub patted Xiao Fenjiao's shoulder: "You didn't go ashore alone, didn't you have me."
Xiao Fenjiao tilted his head and thought for a while, he was right, his father forbade him to go ashore alone to play, he was with Little Xiong Cub, the two of them were not considered alone.
He looked around and held half of the eggshell in his arms.There are three people, and one more is one.He couldn't leave little Molian behind, since there were delicious food, there was also little Molian's share.
If Xiao Molian wakes up midway, she can eat with them.
The little bear cub silently glanced at the little Mo Lian who was sleeping under the dark green lotus leaf, no matter what, one more is one more.
One person will be beaten for tossing around, and two people...of course they will also be beaten.It's just that when one of the two is a child of another family, the father will not beat him in front of other parents. If he sneaks away quickly, he may be able to escape.
That's right, his purpose of abducting Xiao Fenjiao is that simple.
When Xiao Fen Jiao and Xiao Xiong Cub were sneakily preparing to leave the island in the lake, Hei Xi was discussing with He Qing about going home inside the house.
His gaze swept outside the house, and he saw Xiao Fenjiao leading the way with half of the eggshell in his arms, and the little bear cub quietly following behind.Xiao Fenjiao, who has always been talkative, is so silent, she can tell at a glance that she is not doing a good thing.
Originally, Hei Xi should have stopped them, but his eyes stayed on the half of the eggshell for a moment, and then changed his mind.
With Xiao Molian present, there will be no major problems.His eldest son is definitely not as weak as he looks.They will go out soon, and the children can get used to it a little in advance.
Hei Xi looked away calmly, and embraced He Qing in his arms: "Don't worry, I will prepare everything on the road as soon as possible. Taking this opportunity, it will be of great benefit to let the children increase their knowledge and experience .”
He Qing naturally understood these principles.
In the past, when he was ill, Aunt Shell carried him across the mountains to find an old genius doctor. Only then did He Qing realize that there are countless places beyond Bibo Lake, vast and boundless.The sons really shouldn't be stuck on the island in the lake all the time.
"I'm just," He Qing paused slightly, "I'm a little nervous..."
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Hei Xi's hand tightened a bit.
He Qing thought for a moment, and expressed his troubles: "We are in Bibo Lake, and Aunt Shell always helps me when cooking. I don't know much, and I can't always let everyone eat a few repeated dishes every day."
Can you give him some time, and then go back after he learns a few more dishes, so that he can show his skills in front of the parents of the big black dragon.
Knowing He Qing's worries, Hei Xi was silent for a while.Maybe he should think of a way to persuade He Qing to go to his house and not cook.
The author has something to say: He Qing: I am so nervous to meet my parents
Big Black Flood Dragon: Don't be afraid, I have you
