"This is the only way."

Peng Qibo nodded in agreement. Seeing the bus driver heading back to town arrive, he said, "Hurry up and get on the bus, it's about to leave."

A group of people took a bus back to town, and then took an oxcart back to the educated youth compound.

I spent the whole morning running around.

Everyone was exhausted.

No.

I was both hungry and tired, and it was already past lunchtime.

Peng Qibo took something out of his basket and said, "Lin Zhiqing, I've bought a few pounds of meat and two pig's trotters. What do you think is the best way to prepare them?"

"Now that the weather is hot, we can only fry this meat in oil. Once it's dry, we add some salt and then put the meat and oil in a jar to make salted meat. When we want to eat it, we can take out a piece and stir-fry it."

Lin Jingyu knew that the siblings couldn't handle it, so she didn't refuse his request. "It's not too much trouble to do these things. We can do them later. Let's get something to eat first."

"Lin Zhiqing, I also bought meat."

Su Jingtian gave a fawning smile, "I'm not very good at these things, could you help me?"

"And me, and me."

Yang Shujue then shouted, "Jingyu, I bought a big pig's head, but I don't know how to cook it. Can you help me?"

"no……"

Lin Jingyu was completely speechless.

Looking at the pile of meat they brought out, I couldn't help but complain, "Are you trying to work me to death?"

"No, no."

Yang Shujue grinned and said jokingly, "Jingyu, our head chef, with us all working together, you definitely won't get tired."

Lin Jingyu was both annoyed and amused. "Shouldn't I be thanking you?"

"No, no, we should thank you."

"Thank me? You won't let me off the hook until you've worked me to death."

"Lin Zhiqing, just tell us how to do it."

Peng Qibo spoke again, saying, "There are over twenty pounds of meat in total, and the pig's head and trotters are not easy to handle."

By the way, what kind of meat did you buy?

"Various kinds of preserved meats, pork, and offal."

Lin Jingyu looked helpless. "Wait a minute, we need someone to clean up all these pig heads, trotters, and offal."

Peng Qibo nodded in agreement: "You can make the arrangements in a bit."

"Put it aside for now, I'm too hungry. Let's eat something first and then we'll get some food."

Looking at the group waiting to be fed, Lin Jingyu asked again, "Which of you will go to He Zhiqing's vegetable garden and pick some vegetables?"

We'll have noodles for lunch today.

Peng Shiyu didn't want to go, so she immediately looked at her older brother.

Peng Qibo raised his eyebrows and glanced at Su Jingtian.

As for Yang Shujue, she was already paralyzed and unable to move.

"I'm going to pick some green vegetables."

Su Jingtian resignedly stood up. "Lin Zhiqing, besides green vegetables, do you need any other vegetables? If so, I'll pick them all back."

"Just pick them as you see fit."

Lin Jingyu casually replied, "Anyway, you're all going to eat, so pick whatever you want. He Zhiqing and the others know we'll be picking vegetables."

"Okay, I'll pick some back."

Su Jingtian went out carrying a vegetable basket.

Yang Shujue hesitated for a moment before following her out.

Lin Jingyu was busy in the kitchen when Peng Shiyu came in to help.

Peng Qibo was also busy, helping to chop firewood.

Half an hour later.

Each person held a large porcelain bowl filled with generous portions of noodles, which looked quite impressive.

The group of people, who were already starving, swallowed all the noodles and soup.

One by one, they showed expressions of satisfaction.

“So full.”

Peng Shiyu looked content, squinting her beautiful eyes, and murmured, "Even the noodle soup that Sister Jingyu cooks is so delicious."

"It really is delicious."

Even though she was very full, Yang Shujue still looked like she was savoring the meal, muttering, "It's so good to have good cooking skills; no matter what you make, it tastes delicious."

Lin Jingyu glared at her irritably, "Stop flattering me. When it's time to get to work, you still have to do your job."

"No problem, I'll definitely help."

"You guys discuss who should handle the pig's head, it's a tough nut to crack. But it would be best if two people did it, it's delicious but hard to clean."

"You two go."

Peng Qibo directly instructed the people next to him, "If you don't clean the pig's head, trotters, and offal thoroughly, you won't be eating any meat."

Su Jingtian and Yang Shujue: ...

Neither of them dared to refuse the task.

I had no choice but to accept it with a bitter face.

At this moment...

"Jingyu, Jingyu, are you back yet?"

Liu Xiuying's shouts came from outside the courtyard.

Her figure soon came into everyone's view.

Upon seeing the group of people present, she smiled and said, "Since you're all here, I don't need to look for you anymore. The village chief has announced that there will be a meeting at the brigade headquarters, so everyone should hurry over."

"Meeting?"

Lin Jingyu was quite surprised. "Xiuying, why are we having a meeting? Have we started the harvest?"

"It's not a rush to harvest."

Liu Xiuying explained, "Wild boars came down the mountain to eat sweet potatoes, and the village chief wanted to organize a patrol team to prevent the wild boars from eating all the sweet potato fields at the foot of the mountain."

"A wild boar came down from the mountain?"

Su Jingtian's face lit up with surprise, "Can we take action and leave the wild boar behind?"

"Puff~"

Liu Xiuying chuckled upon hearing this, "Su Zhiqing, that's a wild boar, not a pheasant or rabbit. Hunting a wild boar isn't easy."

Then the smile on her face slowly faded, and her tone became more and more serious, "Wild boars are very fierce. When they go berserk, several grown men are no match for them."
