Chapter Nine: Dividing the Pork? Impossible!

Upon hearing her mother's voice, Lin Baozhu immediately jumped up and waved her arms, saying, "Mother, Mother, I'm here!"

After shouting, Lin Baozhu let go of Qin Haifeng's hand and strode down the mountain...

"Thump!"

Lin Baozhu turned her head and saw Qin Haifeng fall face down.

So she turned back, looked at the unconscious man, grabbed his arm, then bent down, picked him up, and quickly walked down the mountain...

Guo Cuicui walked anxiously at the front of the group, calling out Lin Baozhu's name while wiping away tears.

If anything happens to Baozhu, she won't live either!

Lin Erlang stood beside him, holding a torch.

"old

Second, did you hear Baozhu's shout?

As they were talking, a person darted out of the bushes. When the torch shone on him, Lin's mother was terrified.

Lin's mother let out a loud wail, tears streaming down her face.

"My dear, where are you hurt? Let Mommy take a look. Don't cry out, Mommy will take you to the hospital right away."

Seeing her mother's loud and boisterous reaction, Lin Baozhu quickly said, "Mother, I'm not injured. This blood is from the wild boar and Qin Haifeng."

Seeing her daughter's lively and energetic appearance, Lin's mother turned her gaze to the man in her arms.

"What's wrong with the Qin family's son?"

"I encountered a bear and got injured."

"Wow, I actually survived encountering a bear."

Looking at Qin Haifeng being held in her daughter's arms, Lin's mother pushed Lin Sanlang away and said, "Third son, quickly take Qin Haifeng from me."

What kind of talk would it make if word got out that her daughter was carrying a man in her arms in front of so many people?

After handing Qin Haifeng to Lin Sanlang, Lin Baozhu said to her mother with a grin, "Mom, I was really awesome today! I hunted a big wild boar. Tonight we'll stew pork for dinner. You and Dad have both become skinny sticks. With this wild boar meat, you'll both gain a few pounds."

As Lin Baozhu spoke, she took the basket off her back...

The Lin family was running out of food, and this wild boar was a lifesaver for them.

Someone stared at the enormous wild boar, mouth agape in shock: "Good heavens, how did Baozhu kill such a huge wild boar? Could it be that Qin Haifeng helped her?"

Qin Haifeng is a retired soldier, highly skilled; they'd believe he killed the wild boar. Lin Baozhu? A delicate, frail young girl…

They absolutely did not believe it.

“It chased me, so I lured it to the other side of a tree, and it crashed into it. While it was unconscious, I stabbed it in the neck with a knife. As for Qin Haifeng, I met him when I was carrying the pig down the mountain.”

"So you hunted this wild boar and carried it down the mountain all by yourself?"

"Of course! This wild boar is really fierce, Mom. I risked my life to kill it. I hope the villagers won't steal it from us, since we've already run out of food!"

Everyone stared in astonishment at the wild boar in her basket.

They always knew Lin Baozhu was strong, but they never imagined she was this strong.

Carrying a 500-pound wild boar on his back and holding a 160-170-pound man in his arms, he was walking with incredible speed! Who would believe that?

Looking at the large wild boar, Lin's mother laughed and said, "Daughter, you risked your life for that, how could they possibly steal it?"

Second, you and your cousins ​​carry the wild boar back home. Don't let it rot if you leave it out too long.

The person who had been quietly calculating how much pork he would get was immediately displeased upon hearing Lin's mother's words.

At this moment, the short, thin-faced woman said indignantly, "Baozhu's mother, what do you mean by that? This mountain belongs to our Da Geba Village, and the animals on the mountain naturally belong to our village's collective property. Why shouldn't we get a share of the wild boar we hunted? If you're trying to embezzle it, aren't you afraid the villagers will report you to the commune for stealing from the state?"

Their family only eats meat once or twice a year. Now that the Lin family's daughter has hunted such a big wild boar, they should get a share. If they don't agree, she'll be the first to report them to the commune. And who knows what might happen to their old man then?

The second job is still going to fail!

Over the years, the Lin family has become arrogant and conceited, relying on the fact that Lin Erlang has a job!

Upon hearing this, Lin's mother's smiling face immediately turned cold.

"Zhu Zi's wife, what nonsense are you spouting? I'll acknowledge that the mountain belongs to our village, but there are so many animals on the mountain, and it's always been a matter of whoever hunts them gets to keep them! Just because my daughter risked her life to hunt a wild boar doesn't mean you can get the better deal, right? Have you no shame?"

"Your husband recently hunted two rabbits, and I didn't hear you mention that the rabbits were village property. Now you have the nerve to ask for a share of the meat my daughter hunted. If you want some, let your husband hunt. Even if he catches a tiger, I won't take a single penny from your family. Similarly, don't even think about getting your hands on the meat my daughter hunted."

Those who were originally waiting to take advantage of the situation started talking all at once.

"That's not how it works. Those who are capable should do more work, but we won't take advantage of your family for nothing. How about this, we're willing to give Lin Baozhu a 10-cent mark, but 80 percent of the meat must be handed over according to regulations."

Their harvests have been poor these past few years, so who in any household dares to eat their fill?

They wouldn't say anything if it were small animals like chickens or rabbits, but this is a wild boar.

They couldn't just stand by and watch the Lin family embezzle the pig.

"Lin Zhuzi, say that again if you dare!"

Lin Baozhu frowned as she listened to the noise around her, her eyes filled with hostility.

The captain was also very envious of the wild boar, but it wouldn't be so easy for him to gain an advantage over the Lin family.

However, it's not good for things to keep making so much noise at the foot of the mountain.

After thinking for a few seconds, he said, "Auntie, this wild boar meat does belong to the village's collective property, but everyone saw that Baozhu came back covered in blood. It must have been extremely dangerous to hunt this wild boar, but the rules of the organization cannot be broken."

Originally, you were supposed to hand over 80% of the wild boar meat, but you only need to hand over 50%. The pig's offal is also yours. Auntie, what do you think?

After saying that, she whispered, "Baozhu has been entangled with Bi Yuntao for so many years, and her reputation has been damaged. If you are willing to give up half of the wild boar meat, the villagers will remember her kindness, and it will be easier for her to find a good family to marry into then, right?"

He knew that Baozhu was the Lin family's Achilles' heel, and that if he brought it up, Lin's mother would definitely agree.

Lin's mother glanced at him, thinking, "What nonsense is this old man spouting?"

How could a wild boar possibly salvage a daughter's reputation?

Ever since her daughter broke off her engagement with that scumbag Bi Yuntao, she doesn't want her daughter to get married for the time being.

She'll try to find a way to get her daughter a job.

Only by standing at a high vantage point can one recognize more outstanding talents.

Even if others don't know, how could she not know her own daughter's character?

This girl is simple-minded but clever, and being a high school student, she'll have no trouble climbing up given the opportunity.

Looking further ahead, even if she can't buy a job for her daughter, the dowry she's saved up for her daughter will be enough to keep her in-laws from bullying her.

So the brigade leader wants to use his daughter's reputation to get her to compromise? Dream on!

"Captain, what you said makes a lot of sense, but don't say it again. I'll say it again: you want a share of the wild boar meat that my daughter risked her life to hunt? No way!"
