Chapter 63 I Don't Want My Tongue Anymore

Ultimately, this wild boar is also the property of the village collective.

Therefore, after returning from the hunt, half of the game was to be handed over to the village for distribution to the villagers.

If those who participate in hunting wild boars are also divided in this way, then perhaps no one in the village will be willing to go.

With this in mind, Tong Liqun made this decision after discussing it with several village officials.

"Now, those who are willing to participate in the hunting of wild boars can step forward."

Tong Liqun spoke again.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Tong Aiguo stepped forward from behind him.

Seeing this, Tong Liqun's lips twitched, and he hissed in a low voice, "Aiguo, you go back here. You're not even fully grown yet, and you want to hunt wild boars? Aren't you afraid the wild boars will gouge you out?"

Old Tong only has this one son. Last time he went to rescue someone, it was because he had no other choice but to let his son go first.

He also told himself that if there was any danger, he should turn around and run.

This is a direct attack on wild boars, those things can go toe-to-toe with Siberian tigers, so there's no room for fooling around.

"Dad, I'm not being silly." Tong Aiguo's eyes sparkled. How could he possibly be being silly?

He's going to see it...

"Hey Gu family, aren't you usually so arrogant? Why are you all so quiet now that you're going to hunt wild boar?"

Just then, Chen Zhaodi's sarcastic voice rang out.

She had long disliked the Gu family. They were all sent-down youth, so why did the Gu family members not only get to live in a big house by themselves but also get to eat well every day?

Why is it that everyone who was sent to the countryside as an educated youth gets to eat dumplings and cured meat, but not a single piece for their little one?

The Gu family doesn't deserve a good life if they can't even afford to feed their child.

Gu Yanxiao and his father exchanged a glance, but before they could speak, they were still speechless.

Xia Yi then said, "If you ask me, could the Gu family be just paper tigers? They're usually so fierce to us women, but now that they're going to hunt wild boar, they've fallen silent!"

She still harbors resentment towards the Gu family for embarrassing her several times.

Since the Gu family has made it clear that they will not interfere with the people from their educated youth settlement, she has no need to give them face.

Looking at their ugly faces, Su Xiangwan stood up and asked loudly, "Secretary Tong, I wonder if the educated youth will get any meat if we hunt wild boar?"

Before she could finish speaking, Cai Chunhua was the first to jump out and shout, "Why should we? It's one thing for you educated youths to rely on our village's grain rations because you don't have enough work points, but now you want to share the wild boars that the people of our Bakushu Village risked their lives to hunt? Dream on!"

"That's right. We can't even eat a few pieces of meat all year round. Even if we catch a wild boar, with so many households in the village, each family won't get many pieces of meat. These educated youths don't work hard, and they're not from our Bakushu Village, so why should they get meat?"

Zhu Jinmei also stood up and spoke.

This time, Tong Liqun did not speak up to stop it.

Just like Cai Chunhua and the others said, the people at this educated youth settlement usually dawdle at work, and the work points they earn are not even enough for them to eat.

The villagers had long been dissatisfied with the fact that they always relied on the village for food aid.

If the wild boar that everyone risked their lives to hunt this time were to be divided, the villagers would definitely disagree. Thinking of this, Tong Liqun said, "If any of the educated youth participated in the hunting, the remaining half can be divided equally among the heads. If no one participated, then they will not participate in the meat distribution."

Hearing this, Su Xiangwan smiled faintly and said, "I understand."

"In that case, let two people from our family contribute!"

Gu's father and Gu Yanxiao stepped forward.

Seeing this, Tong Aiguo quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Brother Gu, I knew you would go."

As he spoke, he looked at Tong Liqun with a smug expression and said, "Dad, look, Brother Gu has already gone, what else are you worried about?"

Tong Liqun also realized why his son was so excited to participate in the wild boar hunt.

So they knew Gu Zhiqing was going to participate!

However, it's true that Tong Liqun felt a bit more at ease after learning that the Gu family father and son were going to participate in the wild boar hunt.

Others may not know Gu's father, but he knows him quite well.

Especially Gu Yanxiao's aura; he was clearly an elite soldier.

Although they didn't know why such a talented person would appear in their Bakushu Village as an educated youth, it was a good thing for them.

As they were talking, Tong Decheng had already walked over carrying his hunting rifle.

"Since Gu Zhiqing is also participating, then let Gu Zhiqing use this gun!"

“Okay.” Gu Yanxiao did not refuse. With this gun in his hand, the wild boar would have no chance of escaping once it appeared.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to catch a wild boar that is trying to escape in the jungle with just a knife.

As Liu Heping watched Gu Yanxiao take the gun with such composure and calmness, a strange feeling arose in his heart that the other party was definitely very familiar with guns. So, it seems...

He instinctively took a step forward and began, "I..."

"Husband..." Chen Zhaodi quickly stepped forward and grabbed him: "Husband, don't do anything reckless. That's a wild boar, capable of fighting a Siberian tiger. If we really encounter one, what good will a gun do? What if something happens to you? How will we, a widow and her children, survive?"

The courage that Liu Heping had just mustered vanished in an instant. He glanced at Zheng Haiyang and Shao Guoyang subconsciously, and seeing that they didn't even raise their heads, he immediately stopped talking.

Yes! That's a wild boar, not a domestic pig raised in a pigpen. It takes several people to hold down a domestic pig! Let alone a fierce wild boar.

Next, two more young men stepped forward.

Having decided to hunt wild boar, the group didn't delay any longer.

After confirming that no one else wanted to go with them, the group carried their hunting knives and went up the mountain.

There were six people in total, two of whom were from the Gu family, father and son.

After all, not everyone is as trusting of the Gu family as Tong Aiguo and Tong Decheng.

After watching the group leave, the remaining people dispersed and headed home.

Chen Zhaodi watched the three women from the Gu family walk away, spat on the ground, and said with disdain, "That daughter-in-law of the Gu family is really heartless! Just for a bite to eat, she forced her father-in-law and husband to go hunting wild boar! Wild boars aren't so easy to hunt. This time, I'm afraid..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Su Xiangwan looked at her with icy eyes and said, "Don't you want your tongue anymore?"

It was an extremely pleasant voice, but to Chen Zhaodi's ears, it clearly carried a chilling threat.
