"One portion is for our family, one portion is for the uncle next door, and the last portion is distributed to the villagers. When the time comes, let the village chief distribute it to everyone. Then everyone can have some meat too."
As soon as Yun Yiyi finished speaking, Zhang's eyes widened, "Yiyi, why are you giving a share to the village?"
"Mom, even though the villagers didn't help with the wild boar hunt, we've already divided up the tiger meat. The uncle next door got the tiger meat, so it's okay if he asks for a little less wild boar meat."
"As for our family, I'll make the decision directly. After all, that wild boar is not small, over 300 pounds. If our family gets a share, we can get about 100 pounds."
"About a hundred pounds of pork, enough to keep us fed for a long time."
When Zhang heard this, she understood Yun Yiyi's intention.
We all live in the same village. If everyone has no meat to eat, I guess everyone can live in peace.
However, if the Yun family had too much meat to eat, and the other families in the village had nothing to eat, then the sour talkers and those with pink eye would probably be in a state of turmoil.
Yun Yiyi also wanted to give away some of the meat so that she could eat her own meat happily without having to be sneaky.
Zhang sighed secretly. Yun Yiyi's approach was the most appropriate approach at the moment.
Yun Yiyi suddenly heard Zhang sigh, and she hurriedly comforted her, "Mom, please don't sigh. At a time like this, it's good enough that we can eat meat in peace. Don't worry about anything else."
"I know, Yiyi, I just feel a little uncomfortable."
"Mom, you should think about how to make us a delicious lunch. If Dad works quickly, we can have stewed pork for lunch."
"Mom, how do you think pork should be cooked?"
Zhang also became happy. "Let me think about it, Yiyi. How about I make you some braised pork?"
"Red braised pork, okay, Mom, let's make red braised pork. I like it. Needless to say, Dad and Big Brother will like it too."
"Haha, Yiyi is right. As long as it's meat, your dad and the others love to eat it."
"Mom, please make some hot and sour potato shreds. For the main course, make some pancakes."
"Okay, wait until mommy cleans your shoes and bakes them first, and then I'll prepare to cook."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. Mother is very happy."
Zhang said as she quickened her hands' speed. After a while, Yun Yiyi's cotton shoes were clean.
Zhang squeezed out the water and put the cotton shoes and cotton clothes together to dry.
Then, Zhang washed the outer layer of cloth of the cotton-padded jacket and hung it up to hang.
She wiped her hands, pulled aside the curtain and looked outside. There were a lot of people gathered around the well, and she couldn't see whether the wild boar had been killed or not.
Zhang thought about it and went back into the house, found a clay basin, scooped up flour, and started kneading the dough.
After kneading the dough, she put it in a basin to let it wake up.
"Mom, do you want to make pancakes now?"
"Yiyi, wait a moment. The noodles still need to rise for a while. I'll get the potatoes out first, wash them, cut them into shreds and set them aside."
"Mom, do you need my help with the work?"
"A moment, Yiyi."
Zhang cut the side dishes and placed them in a bowl, and cut the shredded potatoes and soaked them in water.
Then, she poured all the boiling water from the big iron pot into a clay pot.
"Yiyi, you can go to the roof of the car and pull some hay to make a fire."
"Okay, Mom."
While Yun Yiyi went to get hay, Zhang skillfully rolled out several pancakes.
After Yun Yiyi lit the fire, Zhang put three pancakes into the iron pot.
The pancakes are very thin, so basically you just need to fry the front and the back and they are ready to go.
Yun Yiyi was also a skilled fireman, so Zhang quickly baked half a basin of pancakes.
"Mom, Dad asked me to carry a basket to put away the pork that was distributed to our family."
Before the person arrived, Brother Yun's voice came first.
"Go by yourself. There are several empty baskets in the carriage."
"I understand, mother."
Brother Yun took an empty basket and went out in a hurry.
After about ten minutes, Brother Yun came back with a basket of meat.
"Mom, this is the meat we got. Take a look and see if it's enough. Oh, Mom, my dad said he'll be back soon to cut the meat into pieces."
Zhang peeked in and her face lit up instantly. "Oh, we're not short of meat anymore. Boss, go tell your dad I'm going to make braised pork. Ask him to come back and cut out a piece of pork belly."
"Mom, I'll go now."
After saying this, Brother Yun ran out.
The piece of meat that the Yun family got was not cut. It was a very large piece of meat and needed to be carefully divided by Yun the butcher.
Soon, Butcher Yun and Brother Yun came back.
"Wife, the boss said you're going to make braised pork in red sauce."
"Yes, we have enough meat at home now."
Butcher Yun laughed heartily, "Thanks to Yiyi, we haven't been short of meat lately."
Butcher Yun took out the meat and cut it into pieces.
He also specially cut the pork belly into square pieces, and Zhang could cook it directly after blanching it for a while.
"Wife, I have to go back and help. The wild boars in the village haven't been divided yet."
"Go ahead, when you're done, go home and eat."
"Don't worry, wife, I'll be done soon."
Butcher Yun went to the well again to help divide the meat.
Just now, when Brother Yun was carrying a basket of meat and walking home, many people in the village were watching him.
"Look at how blessed the Yun family is! They were given over a hundred pounds of meat all at once, which is enough to last them for a long time."
"Who in our village doesn't envy the Yun family? They haven't finished the mutton from the day before yesterday, and now they have this wild boar. I wish I were a member of the Yun family so I could eat meat every day."
"Haha, that's a good point. I guess there are a lot of people who think the same way as you."
"Don't envy them. We really can't envy them. Really, you don't have to glare at me. You probably don't know why the Yun family got so much meat, right?"
"I've found out everything. The reason the Yun family got a share of the meat was because their daughter, Yun Yiyi, helped the team next door to hunt tigers and wild boars."
"The key is that a group of adults can't put in as much effort as a child. It's because Yun Yiyi is the main force in hunting tigers and wild boars that she asked for a share of the wild boars for our village, so the people next door didn't object."
"Otherwise, we haven't done anything, so how could we possibly get a share of the wild boar? This is meat, who would be willing to share it with others?"
"Yes, that's right. It's said that Yun Yiyi was the only one from our village who helped hunt the tiger and the wild boar, and no one else caught up. That's not true either, but Butcher Yun caught up at the last moment."
"He helped kill the wild boar. So, we're really enjoying the pork this time thanks to the Yun family."
"Fortunately, the Yun family is righteous and doesn't eat alone."
