Fu Dabai finally managed to avoid the villagers who wanted to grab him and chat with him and entered the house.
When I looked into the yard, I was amazed at how messy it was, not much better than the front door.
On the wall of the fourth room, there was a half-dead wild boar, covered in blood and grunting.
Wang in the main house must have been injured and was moved here. She was screaming in pain. Fu Sibai and several sisters-in-law held her down. Doctor Zhang was also busy working on Wang's legs with two boards in his hand, sweating profusely.
Lao Futou, Fu Erbai, Fu Sanbai and the village butcher Zheng gathered at the wall, trying to figure out how to get the pig down and slaughter it without causing any further damage to the wall.
The children in the house were crying one after another, and Niuwa and Xingzi from the fourth room kept rushing into the house to find their mother.
Old Mrs. Yang was busy pressing this and pulling that, and she couldn't free her hands.
Fortunately, Aunt Shi, who lived next door to the left, also rushed over and was able to help Mrs. Yang look after the children. She could also help comfort anyone who was crying too hard.
Fu Dabai gave all the food he brought back to A Yuan, and told her to put the things in the kitchen or their room first, close the door and then go find grandma. Don't run around or cry and make trouble, and if you are afraid, just follow grandma closely.
A Yuan agreed to all of them.
Only then did Fu Dabai feel relieved to go look for Lao Fu Tou and the others, and he finally found out what was going on.
In short,
A big wild boar, who was thinking about something unknown, suddenly came down the mountain and came to Lao Fu's house in the middle of the night.
One of its heads broke down the flimsy fence, and then it came to the east house where the second and fourth roommates lived with a purpose.
At this time, little Yang, who had just fed Fubao, came out of the house and wanted to return the bowl to the kitchen which was also on the east side, between the second and fourth rooms.
At this time, the wild boar saw her, and she also saw the wild boar.
The two sides looked at each other, and little Yang was so scared that she dared not move, for fear that any movement would anger it.
But Fubao, who was in little Yang's arms, giggled happily at this moment, and waved at the wild boar with his little hands.
The wild boar rushed over fiercely, and little Yang screamed for help! ! !
Then her legs went limp and she sat on the ground. She could only bend over and hold Fubao in her arms. The wild boar that was about to run over and knock her away slowed down and came over to sniff her.
To be precise, she smelled the baby in her arms.
Pig's trotters and Fubao's dishonestly outstretched hand lightly touched each other.
Somehow, the wild boar didn't touch them, but instead took a few steps back and rammed its head into the wall of the fourth room.
It probably wanted to kill itself, but it didn't expect that the wall of Lao Fu's house could not be described as strong or weak.
Although it is very strong, a wild boar can break it with just one push.
It was not strong enough. Not only did the wild boar hit it and made its head bleed, but it also got stuck in the wall, neither dead nor alive.
Unfortunately, it hit the kang in the fourth room, causing half of it to collapse.
Wang, who was sleeping here, was caught off guard and the bricks of the kang collapsed onto her.
I don’t know which brick I hit, but my leg was fractured and I screamed even more miserably: “Mom! Help! ! ! ! ! ! !
Fu Sibai, who was sleeping on the other side, woke up with a start. He turned his head left and right, and a half-dead pig head looked at him with bared teeth: ...
Then things got chaotic. The children were frightened by the two shouts and started crying. The adults ran out, and the children followed them. When they saw the bloody pig, they started howling even louder.
The neighbors heard someone shouting for help and rushed over, but when they saw the condition... it seemed... there was nothing they could do to help.
The only danger was getting stuck in the wall.
Some of them were quick enough to call Doctor Zhang and the butcher Zheng, while the rest gathered at the door to watch the excitement.
After hearing this, Fu Dabai fell silent for a while.
Logically speaking, getting a pig is a good thing, but why does it make me feel... a little... uncomfortable? !
Is it because someone was injured?
But it wasn't my wife who was injured. A cracked leg? A broken leg is none of his business!
If it’s not because of this, then what is it because of?
Fu Dabai was just thinking about it when he heard someone outside saying:
"Hey, come on, that Fubao from the second branch of the old Fu family can't really bring good luck, right?"
"What do you mean?"
"I heard about it! On the first day that Fubao was sent back to her family, the second son of Lao Fu's family caught a pheasant. Two days later, a wild boar came. Do you think we can bring Fubao back?"
"If you put it that way, it seems to be the case."
"It's not that guy. Who told you about the pheasant?"
"Hey, that day someone came back to the village and saw it with his own eyes. The pheasant was right by the roadside, and Fu Da and Fu San went to catch it, but the pheasant suddenly jumped into Fu Er's arms, as if it was waiting for him on purpose!
"I heard about it too. It seems that Fuda and his friends picked up quite a few eggs!"
"Is it that mysterious?"
"If you think so, then whose pheasant would lay eggs on the roadside? It must be waiting for him!"
"If you say so, I heard that the wild boar today also deliberately looked at the people from the second house, and then ran into the wall. I guess this wild boar also came here on purpose."
"That's right, probably because they are afraid that Fubao will be hungry!"
"That's nonsense. Can a little baby eat meat?"
"Then she can buy it and use the money to buy her something else!"
Fu Dabai: ...How could it be so mysterious? It would be great if I could just hit the thing I gave her against the wall of her house?
What’s the big deal about banging your head against the fourth wall?
Look at the mother and daughter and realize that they have recognized the wrong person?
Fu Dabai suddenly felt even more uncomfortable. It wasn't that he couldn't stand seeing other people praising the second wife, but...
"Dad, the second brother's family," Fu Dabai asked with a frown, "Is everything alright?"
The old man replied:
"It's okay, it's just bad luck!
When the wall of the fourth family was built, there was not enough material, and some places were not repaired carefully. This wild boar was specifically running towards this wall!
Fortunately, no one was hurt. Nothing happened to your second brother's family. It's just that your fourth brother's wife was a bit unlucky."
Old Fu was as white as a pig. He was happy at first, but when he saw the wall, the kang, and thought about his daughter-in-law's legs, his happiness and money seemed to be gone all of a sudden.
Butcher Zheng comforted him:
"Look at what you said, getting a pig for free is a great fortune!
It would be worthwhile even if I demolished half of this wall and rebuilt it!"
That was true. Lao Futou was reluctantly happy now. He discussed with a few others how to demolish the wall. First they had to tie up the pig. Even though it was half dead, what if it struggled in its death throes and hurt someone again?
Originally, this happy event was mixed with some bad luck, either illness or...
etc!
Fu Dabai suddenly realized:
Yes, why did someone get hurt in these two good things? Either they got sick or got injured? The unlucky one was always the fourth room, while the lucky one was the second room!
But when this thought came to his mind, Fu Dabai felt that it was unreliable. Good and bad days were normal things, so how could it be attributed to luck?
What's more, what happened to the fourth room was all an accident.
The wild boar was not called by the second wife, so he had to call it even if he wanted to!
You can't feel awkward just because the wild boar dug up the wall of the fourth room but didn't dig up the wall of the second room, right?
This is not something a man should do!
Fu Dabai considers himself not a hero, nor a man who dares to act without playing dirty tricks, nor an upright gentleman, but at least he is a guy who can urinate while standing.
He always disdains to talk nonsense behind people's backs and attribute good or bad things to luck.
I simply stopped thinking about it. I just felt that my discomfort was due to the fact that I couldn't bear to see the second house, which was full of stupid people, having good things happen to it. I even cursed myself in my heart for being stupid, because after all, it was my younger brother's family.
Old Futou had almost finished his plan by now, and said straightforwardly:
"Tear it down! Tear down everything around here and get the pig down first!"
