The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Chu Xiao was not idle after watching everyone leave. It was already frosty, so he had to go pick more crystal fruits. Otherwise, the weather would be too cold and the little kids at home would have nothing to eat if they froze.

When you leave the yard, you can clearly see the grass leaves wilted by frost. When you enter the woods, the ground is covered with fallen leaves. The sound of stepping on the leaves startles many birds and flies quickly over your head.

Perhaps it is because the trees have lost their former vitality, and it looks desolate at first glance.

When passing by several chestnut trees, the wolf cub could see the figure of a squirrel passing by quickly. The wolf cub couldn't sit still and ran over to chase it, whimpering. Seeing the squirrel quickly climbing up the tree, the wolf cub put his front paws on it without giving up, but he had no tree-climbing skills and could only growl at the squirrel under the tree.

A lot of chestnuts had fallen on the ground. Chu Xiao bent down and picked up one. The burrs on it were still hard and prickly.

There is no rush to pick them up now. Even if winter comes, there will still be time to pick them up. It is better to let these little creatures in the forest store enough food for the winter.

The wild persimmons are now covered with frost. I plucked one and tasted it and it tasted a bit astringent. If I picked it now, I would have to keep it covered for two days before I could eat it.

Chu Xiao had walked through this forest countless times last year and knew exactly what was there. This year, he didn't have time to pick wild fruits, and also missed out on mushrooms and black fungus.

Passing by the trees where he picked wood ear mushrooms last year, he looked up and saw that there were still some wood ear mushrooms hanging on them, but they were all shriveled and unrecognizable. He couldn't help but sigh again.

Chu Xiao felt unhappy because he didn't have enough harvest, so he thought about what he could use to make up for it. Just as he was thinking about what else there was in the deep mountains, he heard the low growl of the wolf cub.

Chu Xiao didn't take it too seriously. The wolf cub was having fun along the way and would roar at everything he saw. He would chase a pheasant, then a squirrel. When he passed by a stream and saw the thumb-sized fish in it, he would roar at them.

However, this time the wolf cub roared a little too long, so Chu Xiao followed the wolf cub's gaze and looked in the direction.

I saw a four or five foot long snake under a tree. It was thin at both ends and thick in the middle. It was obviously eating, but I didn't know what it swallowed. It looked like its belly was about to burst.

The wolf cub jumped left and right and clawed the snake, giving the snake no chance even if it wanted to run away.

I don’t know if Chu Xiao is just lucky, he has only seen a few traces of snakes in the mountains, so naturally he can’t tell which snakes are poisonous and which are not.

But even if it was a poisonous snake, the wolf cub was so ungrateful that he could only say he deserved it after being bitten.

He had no intention of going over to take care of it. Just as he was about to keep walking forward, he saw the snake's body trembling. The wolf cub turned it over again, and when he was growling intimidation, the snake opened its mouth and spit out something.

Chu Xiao was too far away to see clearly, but he felt that this operation was a bit disgusting.

Suddenly, the wolf cub's growl changed its tone, and it tucked its tail between its legs and turned and ran away. Its fleeing looked really disgraceful.

Chu Xiao didn't stay for long and quickened his pace. He didn't want to be curious about what the snake did.

However, he did not think too much about the rest of the journey and kept paying attention to the surrounding environment. It was the time when wild animals were gaining weight in autumn, and he did not want to be suddenly attacked.

What's more, this is the wolf's territory. The real wild wolves are no match for his wolf cubs. I'm afraid that dealing with the wolf cubs would be just like dealing with a child.

Fortunately, they didn't run into anything until they reached the crystal fruit tree. The wolf cub must have been scared by the snake's actions, so he followed Chu Xiao quietly and didn't go around causing trouble.

Chu Xiao still can't climb trees, so he can only swing up by the vines. There are still a lot of fruits on the tree this year, and Chu Xiao wants to pick more.

It was already past noon when we finished picking the fruits here, and I don’t know how many times my stomach growled.

I baked a lot of pancakes last night and put minced meat and wild vegetables in them. They tasted delicious even without any side dishes. However, Chu Xiao still peeled a salted duck egg. Life was better now and he couldn't let himself down.

The wolf cub watched Chu Xiao eating from below, and kept circling around the tree greedily. He tried to climb up the tree several times, but failed every time.

Chu Xiao just wanted to watch the wolf cub's anxious look and use it as a substitute for eating. After he finished eating and the wolf cub was tired of spinning around, he took out a piece of badger meat and threw it to the wolf cub.

There are quite a few wolfberry trees nearby, but the distance is too far and it takes half a day to walk here. Chu Xiao did not come here to pick them last year.

Now that he was right here, Chu Xiao would feel it would be a waste if he just left. But it was not practical to stay here, after all, it would take a long time to go back.

I might as well go all out and take out the hatchet to cut off all the branches. I can then take them home and pick them slowly.

But even if he found the quickest way, he still wasted a lot of time, and it was already dark before he got back.

The temperature dropped rapidly as soon as it got dark, and the wind blew inexplicably, making the leaves fall to the ground.

There is no moon tonight, and even if there was one it would not be of much use in the forest. Chu Xiao's night vision is not very good, and he is even a little confused about the direction. He can only let the wolf cub lead the way.

But the wolf cub was not reliable at all when walking on snow, and the path it led was not easy to walk on. Chu Xiao almost tripped over tree roots and vines several times, and he kicked the wolf cub several times in anger.

The wolf cub cried out in pain after being kicked, and he didn't know what he had done to make Chu Xiao unhappy, so he ran a long distance away before stopping and waiting for Chu Xiao to slowly approach him.

Chu Xiao: "..."

He always felt that the wolf cub did it on purpose, to avenge the fact that he had deliberately tempted it at noon today.

There was actually no danger near the thatched hut, so Chu Xiao was not in a hurry. He walked back slowly and even took out a pancake and ate it while walking.

The wolf cub smelled the scent and slowly moved closer, but Chu Xiao ignored it completely. It was not until his trouser leg's fur was rubbed that he gave the wolf cub half of it.

With food hanging by a thread, the wolf cub finally led the way properly and stopped leading the way into those corners. Soon the man and the wolf returned home.

After returning to the yard, Chu Xiao closed the door tightly, lit a fire to the kang and made himself some simple food. Only then did he find time to have a long chat with the wolf cub.

From the thatched hut deep in the mountains came the aroma of food and the howling cries of wolf cubs.

Chu Xiao sat at the kitchen door drinking the delicious chicken soup left over from last night, while the wolf cub was tied up with vines and struggling in the yard.

Chu Xiao took a sip and raised his head to teach him a lesson: "If you don't listen, you won't have food to eat."

He snorted again: "You have to recognize who is the boss."

He took another sip and said, "Don't move. If you understand, bark twice."

Wolf cub: "Ahhhhhhh."

Chu Xiao sniffed, “It’s not woof woof woof, it’s woof woof woof.”

Wolf cub: "Woo woo woo."

"If you don't call me, I will keep you tied up."

The wolf cub, who hadn't learned to bark like a dog for a long time, said: "..."

I forgot how to say it long ago!!!
