Chapter 302 Playing Games
After eating and drinking, the kids jumped into the stream again to catch snails. In fact, they had caught quite a few before, but when they thought that there might not be much meat in the snails, they wanted to catch more.
However, this time they were more careful than before so as not to get their fur skirts wet.
Slowly, the sky began to darken. Zi Yi added some firewood to the bonfire next to He Jiaojiao to make it burn more vigorously.
"Children, we're back!"
There were always unknown dangers out in the wild at night, and since the cubs were still young, He Jiaojiao was always a little worried. But from the perspective of the males like Mo Ran, there shouldn't be any desperate beasts or orcs who would dare to come here and die knowing that there were so many high-level orcs here.
The cubs were very obedient. When they heard He Jiaojiao's call, they hurried ashore.
"Mom, look, we caught a lot of snails. Can we make something delicious tomorrow?"
He Jiaojiao took a look and said, "Well, it's indeed a bit too much!"
All together, there is at least a big bucket. There is so much that I can’t finish it even if my mouth bursts!
"How about you soak some in salt water now, and then you can eat it after you clean it."
Mo Ran was a little reluctant to agree. After all, they never had the habit of eating midnight snacks. Although they could eat as much as they wanted, could Jiaojiao really eat like this?
"Don't worry, I'll just eat a little bit, it'll be fine."
It shouldn't be a big problem to have a midnight snack occasionally, but she is pregnant now, so it's better for her to eat less of this kind of food.
[Host, feel free to eat anything you want. The system will automatically filter out substances that are harmful to the fetus!]
【Focus on one thing and be happy! 】
Unexpectedly, the system was so humane, which made He Jiaojiao no longer have any worries.
Maybe I should take out the eyes and sprinkle them into a bucket of water, and then let Ziyi pour half a bucket of snails over. As for the rest, I can put them in the space and take them out next time I want to eat them.
In the past, He Jiaojiao would feel sleepy not long after dinner.
But perhaps because she rested more during the day today, the moon was out, but He Jiaojiao was still full of energy.
"How about we play a game?"
Xikang was the most restless. Asking him to sit quietly by the fire was really too much for him. Not long after sitting down, he suddenly stood up and said to his brothers.
"What are you playing for?"
Shisu is a curious baby and is interested in everything.
"The eagle catches the chick!"
As Xikang spoke, he did not forget to glance at He Jiaojiao, as if he wanted to play this game on purpose to make his mother happy.
"Who's going to be the hen then?"
The children all had He Jiaojiao's heritage, but they had always lived in the beast world, so they had automatically ignored it. Now that Xi Kang mentioned it, they remembered that there was indeed such a game.
Xikang looked at He Jiaojiao, his eyes full of anticipation.
Of course, He Jiaojiao did not ignore the expectation in Xikang's eyes. She stood up and said, "Then let mother be the mother hen!"
The friends didn't quite understand why the kids suddenly wanted to play such a strange game, but since He Jiaojiao was also interested, they let them do it.
"Then who will be the eagle?" Xikang swept his eyes over each of the fathers. The fathers were too strong. If they were asked to be the eagles, it seemed that they would all be caught soon.
He Jiaojiao also understood this, so she thought for a moment, pointed at Yuan and said, "Let Father Yuan be the eagle!"
Originally, he thought that the opportunity to play with the kid and Jiaojiao would definitely fall to Mo Ran. Yuan never expected that He Jiaojiao would choose him, so he hurriedly stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his body.
"But I don't know how to do it!"
Seeing Yuan Mingming's excited but suppressed look, He Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing.
"Let me show you first!"
He Jiaojiao took out a piece of unused animal skin from the space and asked Zhutian to cut the skin into several long strips and tie them around the waists of the cubs and Yuan respectively. In this way, there would be no need to worry about them having too much fun and tearing off the animal skin skirt of the person in front of them.
The kids finished the game behind Yuan like a little train. He Jiaojiao opened her arms and started the game.
Yuan originally thought that the game that Jiaojiao and the kids could play was a very peaceful one, so when Jiaojiao rushed towards him, he subconsciously reached out to catch her, but was dragged by the excited kids behind him and stumbled, almost making a fool of himself.
The friends watching were all stunned. What kind of game is this?
Even Mo Ran couldn't help but move closer to Zhutian, "Is this your Eagle Clan's hunting game?"
Zhutian was also a little confused. This was indeed how the Eagle Clan hunted, but he also felt that something was amiss. So when faced with Mo Ran's question, he didn't know whether to shake his head or nod.
As if he noticed Zhutian's dilemma, Mo Ran couldn't help but laugh, "It seems like this is a game that imitates your Eagle Clan's hunting!"
Zhutian nodded, "It should be."
After all, He Jiaojiao had only been pregnant for a few days, and her body was very flexible. It didn't take long for her to catch Zi Su, who was at the end of the team.
"Haha, I got it!"
He Jiaojiao's laughter was cheerful and as pleasant as a bell.
He Jiaojiao felt a little tired before the game was over, but the kids still looked like they were not satisfied. He Jiaojiao couldn't bear to spoil their fun, so she had to bite the bullet and continue playing.
"Okay, let your mother rest, and let your father come play with you!"
Mo Ran stopped He Jiaojiao and looked at the other males in the house. Seeing that they all looked like they wanted to try it, he suddenly felt a bit amused.
It’s just a game, is it really that fun?
Finally, Mo Ran stayed with He Jiaojiao to accompany her and rest, while everyone else came on stage.
For a moment, all she could hear were the cheerful laughter of her friends and children. He Jiaojiao snuggled in Mo Ran's arms, feeling unprecedented happiness.
I don't know how much time passed before the kids all lay breathless on the grass, their chests heaving violently, shouting, "No more playing, no more playing! Father won't let us drink any water. We can't play any more! We really can't play any more!"
The fathers looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
Only Mo Ran looked at Xi Kang, who had just spoken, with a look of disappointment. "You are still too weak. You should go hunting with us more often in the future. That way you can grow up quickly."
When Xikang heard that he could go hunting with his father in the future, he didn't feel tired anymore. He immediately got up and looked at Mo Ran with burning eyes, "Is what father said true?"
Mo Ran nodded, "Father never lies!"
"Great!"
The kids cheered and seemed to be even happier than when they were playing games just now!
