With her spatial ability to raise beast husbands, the wicked female becomes the darling of the group

Chapter 581 It’s not an illusion
Xiao Jihan went up the mountain to pick wild mushrooms and made mushroom and meat dumplings.

Actually, when he first picked these wild mushrooms, the fox clan of Qingqiu Mountain were frightened when they saw them and all came to persuade him, saying that the mushrooms were poisonous.

Xiao Jihan explained the situation to everyone and ate the food on the spot, and then everyone realized that everything was fine.

Afterwards, Xiao Jihan taught everyone how to identify several safe types of mushrooms.

He didn't teach everyone how to identify them; he only told them that those mushrooms were safe and there was no problem, and that they should just find the exact same ones after looking at them.

They also taught everyone how to grind mushrooms into powder for storage, and how to grind them into powder to use as a seasoning to enhance flavor.

After everyone uses these as food, the fox clan of Qingqiu Mountain can store more food.

Everyone was grateful to Xiao Jihan.

Because of this, many fox-type beastmen who lack combat abilities do not need to go out; they can simply gather plenty of wild mushrooms for food within the Qingqiu Mountain area.

Xiao Jihan had not yet sensed any changes in the Fox God Temple's sacrificial hall, and he guessed that Hua Linye might not have arrived in the Divine Realm yet.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jihan's heart sank.

However, he suppressed his emotions and didn't show them on his face at all.

He didn't want Da Bao to experience these things; he just wanted him to grow up happily.

Fortunately, the Qingqiu Mountain area is relatively safe, and the wife had previously reinforced the defensive barrier.

Da Bao watched as Xiao Jihan watched him eat without touching his chopsticks, and then imitated how Xiao Jihan usually served him food, putting dumplings into his bowl. "Uncle Xiao, you eat too."

Hearing Da Bao's words, Xiao Jihan came back to his senses, looked at the dumplings in the bowl, and felt a warmth in his heart. "Okay."

Da Bao's personality is somewhat like that of the wife; he has the ability to love and is also very good at taking care of other people's feelings.

During this time, thanks to Da Bao's presence, his longing for his wife was somewhat alleviated.

After finishing their meal, Da Bao wanted to help Xiao Jihan clean up the dishes and wash the utensils.

Xiao Jihan didn't let him do it. "Didn't you just want to play in the snow? Go play in the snow in the yard."

Da Bao was born with fire-type superpowers and has thick fur, so it's not very cold on snowy days, and he can go out to play.

"I heard from my friends that snowy days are a lot of fun, and you can have a snowball fight."

"Okay, go have fun."

The younger foxes in the tribe who were the same age as him or even older than him were often told by the adults to respect Da Bao and not to hurt him, so much so that they were not very willing to play with Da Bao.

But if Da Bao really wants to play with them, they will play together.

He could tell that everyone still liked Da Bao very much.

Such a beautiful, intelligent and adorable fox cub, everyone can't help but like it.

As Xiao Jihan was tidying up the dishes in the kitchen, he heard laughter coming from outside the street.

He couldn't help but chuckle.

After tidying up, Xiao Jihan cleaned the kitchen again.

He is a clean person and likes to keep everything clean and tidy.

After everything was tidied up, Xiao Jihan arrived at the door.

When the little foxes saw Xiao Jihan, they immediately stopped what they were doing and respectfully greeted him, "Young Master Xiao."

Their parents told them that Young Master Xiao was the most honored guest in the clan.

Xiao Jihan said, "Don't be shy. Here, Da Bao, this is candy. Share it with everyone."

"I'll teach you how to build a snowman in a bit."

Maltose made by Xiao Jihan himself.

In the fox clan of Qingqiu Mountain, sugar is also an extremely precious commodity.

Da Bao took the money and distributed it to everyone, and the little foxes' eyes showed joy and gratitude.

"Thank you, Young Master Xiao. Thank you, Clan Chief."

Da Bao waved his hand and said, "Just call me by my name."

No one dared to actually call them by name.

Besides, the clan leader doesn't even have a proper name.

Although Da Bao is still young, the elders have already revealed his identity: he is now the patriarch of the fox clan.

Xiao Jihan is the youngest patriarch in the history of the fox clan of Qingqiu Mountain. He personally built a snowman for Da Bao and the others; it was a fox snowman.

so cute.

"Wow, the snowman that Uncle Xiao built is so good, it looks just like him."

Da Bao discovered that this was his true form.

Everyone liked the snowman Xiao Jihan had built, so they played snowman-building with Da Bao to see who could build the best one.

Xiao Jihan looked at them with a smile, then quietly returned to the house, leaving the space to Da Bao and the others.

Just then, Xiao Jihan seemed to sense something, and his heart skipped a beat.

He looked up and saw Su Muyao's figure on the eaves of a nearby house.

Xiao Jihan's heart skipped a beat, and he stared blankly in that direction.

He felt that he must be missing his wife so much that he was hallucinating.

Thinking it was an illusion, Xiao Jihan felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Su Muyao had a token given to her by Hua Linye, so she could freely enter and leave the Fox Clan of Qingqiu Mountain without anyone stopping her.

She came in without alerting anyone.

She also wanted to see Xiao Jihan and his baby as soon as possible.

So while Xiao Jihan was building a snowman with Da Bao and the others, Su Muyao quietly watched from the side.

She didn't make a sound and concealed her presence, so Xiao Jihan didn't sense it at first.

Su Muyao couldn't bear to disturb that scene.

Even the system couldn't help but say, "Host, I remember that Xiao Jihan usually doesn't talk much. He usually does things quietly and rarely speaks or expresses himself. But he is very patient with Da Bao. He talks to Da Bao a lot and explains a lot of things to him."

Su Muyao also saw that Da Bao asked many questions, and Xiao Jihan answered them patiently.

"Yes, he is indeed very patient."

“Back when he was in the Beiluo tribe, he did more than he said.”

At that time, he exuded a cold and lonely aura, making him easy to overlook.

At first, she thought he disliked her and didn't want to get close to her, but later she realized that she had misunderstood.

When this person gets anxious, they are also very good at expressing themselves.

Thinking back to that time, Su Muyao's eyes and brows softened with a gentle glow.

Xiao Jihan snapped out of his daze and, like a gust of wind, leaped to Su Muyao's side.

He reached out and gently touched Su Muyao.

His hands were trembling slightly, as if he were hallucinating.

Su Muyao remained motionless, allowing Xiao Jihan to touch her.

The moment Xiao Jihan's fingers felt the warmth, he realized it was real.

"My lady, it really is you, not an illusion."

Xiao Jihan's voice became hoarse, and a faint blush appeared on his face.

His cold gaze was filled with longing and deep affection.

Touched by his gaze, Su Muyao reached out and hugged him tightly, leaning against his chest, and said, "Yes, it's me, not an illusion."

He actually thought it was a hallucination, which made Su Muyao feel a pang of sadness.

It's clear that he really misses her, perhaps even more than she misses him.

Xiao Jihan tightened his arms little by little, but as if sensing something, he was startled and looked down at Su Muyao's stomach.

Su Muyao explained, "Yes, I'm pregnant with Wen Nanxi's child, a snake cub."

She was worried that Xiao Jihan would mind, because she hadn't given birth to any wolf cubs for him yet.

Xiao Jihan's expression softened, "Dabao has always hoped to have younger siblings to play with, and he will be very happy to know this news."

"Are you feeling unwell?"

"Are you hungry? I just boiled some dumplings, they're still warm. Do you want some, or would you like something else? I'll make you something."

Xiao Jihan's first concern was Su Muyao's health.
