Chapter 13: Dividing the Pork (Part 2)



Chapter 13: Dividing the Pork (Part 2)

Su Qian immediately understood what she meant and quickly said, "Mother, please use the muslin to make a set for Sister Xi and Yi'er. I won't use it for now!"

"I don't need it either. Let Yi'er and Mu'er do it first!"

Su Xi came out of the stone house and whispered, "Ah He and I go to the beach every day to catch fish. Clothes get dirty easily, so we can just use coarse cloth!"

The second aunt of the Su family thought for a while and said, "Sister-in-law, Su Xi is right, let's do it for Yi'er and Mu'er first!"

"good!"

Gu Luyun nodded and said, "I will start making them tomorrow and try to get them to wear them as soon as possible."

"I'm with you!"

The two sisters-in-law smiled at each other and began to talk about the past, waiting for Uncle Su and his men to come back from killing the pig.

Soon, Uncle Su and his friends returned to Stone House No. 6 behind the rock, carrying the wild boar meat cut into dozens of pieces.

Stone House No. 6 is the stone house of the old patriarch.

They placed the pork on the clean stone slab at the door and called the Su clan members to come and divide the meat.

When the tribesmen who were still half asleep heard that there would be a share of meat, all of them, adults and children, got up and gathered around the old chief.

"Ah Qian, you and your aunt should go together. I will not go with Yi'er and Mu'er!"

Hearing the Su family's second uncle's shouting, Gu Luyun said something to Su Qian and went into the house to check if the dragon and phoenix fetuses were woken up.

Because their adults had just washed and dressed at night and their clothes were not dry yet, it was not convenient for them to go to such an occasion to divide the pork. Of course, the second aunt of the Su family was the same.

Although it was dark, they were wearing sturdy leaf clothes that covered them, but it was not convenient for them to show their faces.

Su Qian understood, and let Su Xi take her arm and walk towards stone house number six.

Along the way, she saw many naked children and members of the Su clan who covered their bodies with leaves or rags. She suddenly felt as if she had traveled back to ancient times.

At this moment, the Su Lao tribesman was also wearing clothes made of tree leaves. He looked around and saw that almost all the 12 families had arrived, so he spoke,

"This time, the wild boar was discovered by Qian, a girl from Asheng's family. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't have a wild boar to share! So, we should remember Qian's kindness, understand? In the future, no one is allowed to say anything to make things difficult for Asheng's mother and son, understand?"

"knew!"

The Su clan members responded in unison.

"Well, there are a total of 16 pieces of pork here, as well as four pig's trotters and a pig's head. I mean, each household gets a piece, and the rest belongs to Qian Yatou. Do you have any objections?"

The old patriarch asked everyone while leaning on his cane.

"No comments!"

"Old Patriarch, I have..."

A discordant voice emerged amidst the silent voices, and everyone looked up at the person who spoke in the moonlight.

That was Su Dabao's father, and his eyes were still slightly red at this moment.

"Daddy, what's wrong?"

Seeing him speak, the old patriarch softened his voice and asked softly.

"It's like this. We've divided up all this pork. Some of it has a pot, and some of it doesn't. How are we going to cook it?"

Dabao's father mustered up his courage and said, "It's okay to eat fish and shrimp raw, but how can you eat wild boar meat raw?"

His eldest son accidentally ate a poisonous blue-ringed octopus when he ate it raw, and he couldn't let anything happen to his only youngest son, otherwise his mother would really go crazy.

The old patriarch nodded slightly. This was indeed a problem.

"So what can you do?"

The old patriarch asked everyone.

"Dad, I actually have an idea."

Su Boquan hesitated for a moment, then stood up, but did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked around.

"What good ideas do you have to offer?"

The old patriarch said this aloud. In fact, he had roughly guessed what his son would do.

"My idea is that we, the Su family, now have two iron pots in total. Why don't we cook together for now? When we go to Haiping Town, we can find a way to get some iron pots back and eat separately. What do you think?"

The old patriarch nodded slightly, it was exactly what he thought.

He looked at the others and asked, "What do you think of this method? Is it feasible?"

The Su clan members, who had been eating raw fish and shrimp all day, would certainly agree.

"In this way, the wild boar meat will be divided, and the family that provides the iron pot does not need to provide anything else, nor does it need to cook until it goes to Haiping Town to buy an iron pot. Then the remaining ten families will be responsible for the meals for everyone every day. How about that? Of course, the other nine families will also need to help pick up some seafood from the beach!"

The old patriarch completed Su Boquan's method and asked everyone about it.

Su Qian nodded slightly. This was a good idea. It seemed that those who had iron pots here could get free food for several days!

It just so happens that I can take advantage of this time to practice the Dharma during the day, and at night...

Seeing that everyone agreed, the old patriarch gave the order to start dividing the pork.

The pork was easier to divide, with each family getting one piece. The remaining five pieces and four pig trotters and pig heads were all from Su Qian.

Su Quan handed the things to Su Qian and also handed her the meteor dart. "Qian girl, the things are too heavy. Do you need Uncle Quan to help you carry them back?"

"No, no, I'll do it!"

The second uncle of the Su family, who was wearing leaf clothes, quickly handed his piece of wild boar to Su He, and then picked up the things in Su Quan's hand.

Holding the pork in his hand, the second uncle of the Su family said to Su Quan, "Ah Quan, our iron pot was found in the stone house of Qian's family. It belonged to Qian and her family. I will bring the iron pot over tomorrow morning. You can take turns to cook. When it's your turn to come to my house, just tell me!"

"Okay, I'll discuss with my dad which family should start cooking in turn."

Su Quan nodded slightly.

"Ah Qian, Ah Xi, Ah He, let's go back!"

The second uncle of the Su family was carrying dozens of kilograms of things, without any feeling at all, and he shouted at the three siblings to walk towards their own stone house.

Only when they arrived in front of the stone slab of their own stone house did Second Uncle Su put down the wild boar meat.

"You're back?"

Only then did the second aunt of the Su family and Gu Luyun come out of the stone house wearing leafy clothes.

"Well, our family got a piece of pork, Ah Qian got five pieces, and there are also four pig's trotters and a pig's head. By the way, tomorrow our iron pot needs to be..."

The second uncle of the Su family told his two sisters-in-law about the decision made by the old patriarch.

The second uncle of the Su family, who has always been not good at speaking in front of outsiders, can talk freely in front of his own family.

"Is that so? But now that the iron pot has been taken away, it will be inconvenient to wash and dress, right?"

Gu Luyun frowned.

"No problem. It won't take them long to cook. When the iron pot is idle, they can use it to boil water."

Su Qian had thought of this problem a long time ago.

"Well, in that case, let's have a big pot of food for a few days! But those people don't know some seafood, and if they mix in some poisonous seafood, it will be troublesome!"

Gu Luyun continued to worry.

"Mom, it's okay. I'll just go take a look while they're cooking."

In fact, Su Qian also thought of this problem. After all, diseases come from the mouth, so eating should not be taken lightly!

"Okay, Ah Qian, you just keep an eye on it these days! Don't let the Su clan be wiped out because of this big pot of rice!"

The second aunt of the Su family said on the side.
