After the meal, Jiang's men helped clean up the scene, and Jiang Xinyu returned to the hall to rest.
The walls of the Li people's houses are basically completed, only the roofs need to be erected.
We hunted and went down the mountain to harvest sweet potatoes and taro. There were some left, but definitely not enough for dinner.
After consulting with Jiang Xinyu and Song Chenghou, Steward Qin planned to let those who went hunting in the morning rest for a while before continuing their hunt down the mountain.
Li Jing was naturally grateful and still assigned the four men from the morning to take these people down the mountain.
However, Song Chenghou asked Jiang's men to help him hunt more prey, citing the inconvenience of carrying the game, and instructed Li Jing to prepare wooden buckets to make it easier to carry the game back.
Li Jing did not think otherwise; although bamboo baskets or wooden crates were more practical for carrying prey.
But she still followed Song Chenghou's instructions and had her subordinates make the arrangements.
After Li Jinghe and his men left, Song Chenghou approached Steward Qin. After hearing Song Chenghou whisper a few words, Qin's eyes widened instantly.
Song Chengfeng, who was not far away, glanced at it and a mocking smile appeared on his lips.
People generally regard Limu Mountain as an uncivilized mountain...
This is their ability to cause trouble, no less than that of people in inland areas.
If these efforts were put into improving the lives of their people, the Li people would certainly live better than they do now.
If people are not united, all your efforts will be in vain.
Qin Shan dared not delay and immediately reported to the hall, reminding each of his subordinates who were to be sent down the mountain.
Song Chengxin, Song Chengyao, and Song Chengxin cleaned up the scene, leaving only the barbecue grill made of mud bricks and the remaining charcoal embers...
The rest was cleaned up.
After eating, the barbecue skewers should be collected in one place and used to start a fire.
Hearing that they might continue barbecuing that evening, they spontaneously split up and cleaned the prey, removing the skin and flesh...
Prepare the bamboo skewers, dice the rabbit and chicken meat, and thread them onto the skewers.
Wash the sweet potatoes and taro thoroughly so they can be steamed directly for dinner.
While they were busy with these things, Jiang's men had already come down the mountain, each with a solemn expression and even more cautious.
The remaining personnel were scattered around the council chamber, seemingly strolling around, but in reality, they surrounded the chamber completely.
Little Wen Shishi was sleepy after eating and fell asleep in her third brother's arms.
Song Chengfeng checked the injuries of his eldest and second brothers. Because his second brother, Song Chengjian, was in good physical condition, the splints were removed and he was able to move freely.
Song Chengjian had prepared the topical medicine for him beforehand and instructed his second brother to apply it on time.
The wound on my older brother's lower back is gradually healing and new flesh is growing.
Although it's not completely healed, it's fortunate that it hasn't worsened due to the changes of the past two days.
Song Chenghou was worried about the three brothers, who hadn't had lunch yet, so he asked Jiang Xinyu for the three most skilled men to go to the vicinity of Deputy Clan Chief Lin Hong's residence to look for them.
If there are no unforeseen circumstances, they can come back for a meal first.
Jiang Xinyu was almost asleep, but hearing what Song Chenghou said, he was wide awake.
Recalling Qin Guan's prior report and Song Chenghou's instructions...
"Are they trying to cause trouble again?"
Jiang Xinyu blurted it out.
Only after Manager Qin tugged at his sleeve did he manage to lower his voice.
There were many wounded soldiers in the council chamber who were still awake due to the pain from their wounds.
Jiang Xinyu lowered her voice and walked towards the corner, becoming even more cautious.
Seeing Song Chenghou nod, his face darkened.
"If we help them like this and they still don't appreciate it, they shouldn't treat us like pushovers!"
Song Chenghou looked at the person in front of him with admiration.
She is a year younger than me, well protected by her family, straightforward and innocent, but her abilities and courage are in no way inferior.
Since Song Chenghou had given the advice, his men were to bring wooden buckets when they went down the mountain, and he also arranged for his best-skilled younger brother to keep watch...
Knowing that Song Chenghou had his own plans, he said directly, "If the young master needs anything, just give the order, and my men can be used."
Song Chenghou nodded gratefully.
After Song Chenghou left the council hall, his fourth, fifth, and ninth brothers returned shortly afterward.
They deliberately raised their voices to talk about the situation down the mountain, in order to prevent anyone from observing their movements and to mislead others.
Upon hearing the noise, Jiang Xinyu decided to stay awake and personally went outside to prepare a barbecue.
Song Chenghou was grateful in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Song Chengliang, Song Chengyu, and others also expressed their gratitude.
They were even more grateful when they learned that Jiang Xinyu had intentionally left the meat skewers and was now personally grilling them for them.
Song Chengxi took out the sweet potatoes and taro he had saved and distributed them to the three of them.
Knowing they had something to talk about, he agreed to pull Seventh Brother Song Chengyao along and stand on the outer perimeter in two directions to observe the surrounding movements.
"Brother, there's something going on with the witch doctor..."
Song Chengliang took a bite of sweet potato and said in a low voice.
