It was already close to afternoon when many people returned from working in the fields and witnessed this scene. Their envious and jealous gazes almost surrounded Lin Weiming.

Lin Weiming, however, was completely oblivious and extremely pleased with himself.

Liu Junlan and Xue Fu also heard the news, and like everyone else, they were somewhat incredulous.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would believe that Lin Weiming could take down such a big tiger all by himself?

"My husband." Xuefu's eyes were like water, overflowing with tenderness.

Lin Weiming chuckled and said heartily and loudly, "My wife, this tiger skin is big enough to make you a coat."

It's more than just enough to make a padded jacket!

Such a big tiger skin, enough to make a quilt for the whole family!

The villagers were incredibly envious of the Lin family; how could they be so lucky?

They initially thought Liu Junlan was brainless, that her own grandson was starving and she would take in a money-losing child to raise!

Nowadays, people eat meat almost every day, which makes them incredibly envious.

Liu Junlan was also somewhat pleased, but she was more composed than Lin Weiming.

"Grandma, hug me!" Lin Wanyue reached out her arms to hug her when she saw her.

"Your useless father was able to kill such a big tiger, it must all be thanks to your good fortune. You are our family's lucky star." Liu Junlan picked up the little girl and announced loudly.

She had heard the gossip circulating in the village and had been holding back her anger for a long time.

Now we can finally hold our heads high and let them know that our daughter isn't a money-loser!

"Grandma." Lin Wanyue hugged Liu Junlan's neck tightly and whispered in her ear, "Daddy is injured and has lost a lot of blood."

Liu Junlan remained expressionless, reached out and patted the second brother Lin Zheyun's shoulder, "With your strength, how can you possibly move her? Carry your sister, and your brother and I will carry her back."

Lin Zheyun glanced at the big tiger with some reluctance, but he dared not disobey his grandmother's orders.

So Lin Zheyun obediently hugged Lin Wanyue, and seeing that his father had also been given a flick on the forehead by his grandmother, he immediately beamed with joy.

"You're all filthy, hurry up and go back to wash!" Liu Junlan directed his eldest brother, Lin Zhongyuan, to drag the tiger back with him.

Liu Junlan was strong, comparable to a grown man, but it was still not easy for her to pull this big tiger.

However, the villagers were very kind and helped carry it to the Lin family's house.

It was almost time to eat, and even though many people were still standing on tiptoe to watch the excitement, staying at someone else's house at this time was extremely impolite.

Apart from a few shameless individuals who wanted to stay, the rest did not linger.

When Xuefu heard about Lin Weiming's injury, her expression changed immediately, and she quickly closed the door.

"Why didn't you say you were injured? Why didn't you come back sooner!" Xuefu anxiously searched for wound medicine, her voice filled with panic.

"It's nothing, just a minor injury," Lin Weiming said nonchalantly, pulling up his trouser leg to reveal a bloody calf.

Lin Wanyue pushed the door open from the outside and came in just in time to see this scene, and felt her vision go black.

The old man from the village was absolutely right; her father was truly brave and formidable, leaving no room for argument.

Even though he was already injured like this, he could still drag a big tiger back to the village as if nothing had happened!

Xuefu raised her hand to wipe away her tears, but large drops of water still streamed down her face.

"Mother, use this!" Lin Wanyue took out a small cloth bag, opened it and found several strange little things inside, as well as some white gauze.

The concept of disinfection doesn't exist in this era.

Moreover, even if they did have it, Lin Wanyue didn't think that an ordinary farming family like the Lin family could afford it.

While her grandmother was busy in the kitchen and her four older brothers were circling around the dead tiger, she quickly went into the villa and took out a disinfection kit.

She didn't want her father to suffer any long-term health problems.

"Wanwan, what's this? Where did you get it?" Lin Weiming curiously leaned over.

"Why do you care so much? If you dare to do such dangerous things again, don't blame me... don't blame me..." Xuefu opened her mouth, but still couldn't bring herself to say anything hurtful.

Following Lin Wanyue's instructions, she unscrewed the small bottles and poured the clear liquid onto Lin Weiming's wound, where violent white bubbles quickly appeared.

"Ouch—why does it hurt so much?" Lin Weiming's leg immediately stiffened from the pain.

"You deserve to suffer so much pain so you'll learn your lesson!" Xuefu poured the entire bottle of disinfectant onto it.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" Lin Weiming quickly begged for mercy, promising that he would never do such a dangerous thing alone again.

"And wife... wasn't I doing this for our family too? I was thinking of hunting more game, exchanging the money to buy you hairpins, new fabric for clothes, and some writing materials for the eldest brother and the others," Lin Weiming said pitifully.

Xuefu's heart softened, and her movements became much gentler.

Lin Wanyue helped hand over the items and explained to Xuefu how to use them.

"Actually, today was quite dangerous. And this wound wasn't from a tiger bite, but from being hit by that damned wild boar's tusks. I probably bled and the tiger smelled my scent, which is why it chased me all the way here... Luckily, your husband reacted quickly and climbed up a tree in no time."

Lin Weiming couldn't help but feel a little smug as he spoke, "Who knew this tiger would try to climb up? But I just happened to seize the opportunity! With one slash, it got pierced through the belly by a wooden stake below. Wasn't that God giving me a chance? So you tell me, how could I let go of such a few hundred pounds of meat? Of course I had to bring it back!"

...

Zhang Cuihong had worked all day and came back with a sore back, but she still had to cook.

"Stop dawdling, I'm starving, hurry up and cook the food," Yu Dong said with a look of disdain.

"You think you're hungry? I'm not hungry! I haven't had a decent meal since I started working with you. I'm working myself to death every day." Zhang Cuihong grumbled, but her hands didn't stop working.

When she went to the yard to fetch firewood, she ran into her neighbor who was eating from a bowl of rice and said, "Cuihong, you're back late. I'm afraid you haven't seen the Lin family's big tiger yet?"

"What big tiger?" Zhang Cuihong had just returned and hadn't even seen the spectacle of Lin Weiming dragging a tiger back to the village.

The neighbor next door immediately became interested, grabbed a bowl and ran to Zhang Cuihong's house, excitedly telling her, "It's Sister Liu's house! Wow, they really have some good luck. Her son didn't just catch a rabbit this time, he brought back a tiger! That tiger was huge, it must have weighed at least several hundred pounds."

"I've heard people say that tigers are aphrodisiacs, and all the gentlemen and young masters in town and city like to eat them. Tiger penis and tiger bones can fetch a high price. I really don't know how much silver the Lin family will make this time. How did such good luck fall on their side? I wish my family had some too," the neighbor sighed.
