Chapter 173: Fierce Woman
Moon Orchid Forest.
"Yueyue! Yueyue! The goddess really sent us beef."
Chen Jinyue had just gone out hunting with Qi Zhan and was just coming back from surveying the surrounding area when she was hugged by Lin Qingyi.
"What?" Chen Jinyue was still a little confused and didn't understand what Lin Qingyi meant.
"Didn't we kill a buffalo before? We didn't know what to do with it, and then when we watched the live broadcast last time, didn't we give the buffalo to our goddess?"
"The goddess promised to cook one-third of the beef and send it to us. Didn't she livestream making the braised meat a few hours ago? And she just delivered the braised beef to us."
"Do you know how happy I was when I received this package? This is several hundred kilograms of beef, and you've tasted braised beef before. Isn't it delicious?"
"I'm so excited to have hundreds of kilograms of braised beef now. The goddess is really amazing, she is worthy of being my goddess." Lin Qingyi said excitedly while grabbing Chen Jinyue.
"Huh?" Chen Jinyue was stunned after hearing Lin Qingyi's words, but quickly came back to her senses.
"Are you telling the truth? Has the one third of beef that the goddess mentioned really been delivered?" Chen Jinyue said happily.
"Ahhhh, take it out quickly, let's divide it up quickly." Chen Jinyue said excitedly while grabbing Lin Qingyi's hand.
"Huh? Why do we have to separate? We eat together, why do we have to separate?" Wen Zong asked in confusion.
"Are you stupid? How much is one-third of beef? The buffalo we killed must have weighed at least three or four thousand kilograms, and even after cleaning it, it would still weigh about three thousand kilograms."
"Hundreds of catties, hundreds of catties. Two hundred catties is hundreds of catties. Nine hundred catties is also hundreds of catties!"
"That way, we can each get more than 100 kilograms of meat."
"With so much meat, shouldn't we save some and send it home for our family to taste as well?" Yang Xilin explained while looking down on Wen Zong.
"Yes, we can also send it back to our family so that they can also taste the braised beef." Wen Zong opened his left hand, clenched his right fist and hit the palm of his left hand, as if he had suddenly realized something.
"Let's give everyone 100 kilograms of meat and send it all back home. We can keep the rest for ourselves," Zhao Pingzhou also said.
"Anyway, our training mission has not been completed yet, so we can leave one or two hundred kilograms for ourselves and send the rest back home." Wu Fengan also agreed.
"Okay, we'll give each of us 100 kilograms of meat and send it home." Chen Jinyue also agreed.
Everyone agreed not to keep all the meat and eat it all, so they took out the compressed express box to see how many pounds of meat were in it.
"Huh? It looks like it weighs more than 700 or 800 kilograms?" Chen Jinyue asked in confusion as she looked at the food box taken out of the compressed express box.
Qi Zhan checked it and said to her, "The beef is 900 kilograms, just right."
"Huh? Nine hundred kilograms? But it doesn't look like it, it seems like too much." Wen Zong was also confused.
"Because there is not only braised beef, but also braised pig's trotters, braised pig's head and braised pig's intestines." Qi Zhan patted the food box and said.
"All the meat combined weighs about 1,200 kilograms. There are eight of us, and if we divide 800 kilograms, we'll still have 400 kilograms left." Qi Zhan said helplessly, "400 kilograms, we can't finish this much in a few days."
They all have normal body shapes and normal appetites, so really, no one's appetite is so big that they can finish 400 kilograms of meat in a few days.
"Then let's divide it more. Leave 100 kilograms of beef and 200 kilograms of braised pork, and divide the rest equally." Qi Zhan looked at everyone and asked.
"Okay, everyone share more."
"No problem, let's divide it this way."
"If we share more, our parents can eat more, not to mention we have a lot of relatives at home."
"Yes, yes. I think a hundred kilograms of meat might not be enough for our relatives to share."
"Boss Qi, whatever you decide is the best way to divide it, we have no objection."
Since everyone agreed with Qi Zhan's decision, Qi Zhan did not refuse. He quickly divided all the meat, allowing everyone to share the beef, pig's trotters, pig's head and pig intestines evenly.
After leaving some braised beef and some braised pork, they packed up the rest of the items they were given, put them in the express box again, and handed it to the courier to send it out.
"Yueyue, there should be no one at home except your fourth brother right now, right? Where did you send the express delivery?" Yang Xilin asked curiously.
"My fourth brother isn't home right now either." Chen Jinyue shrugged. "My fourth brother's vacation is almost over, and since no one is home anyway, he took two days off and went back to work."
"You could say there's no one at home right now, so I sent the package to my parents."
"You sent it to the First Legion?" Lin Qingyi was also surprised.
Chen Jinyue nodded as a matter of course, "Yes, my parents and my eldest brother are all in the First Legion. Of course I sent the braised beef to them."
"My parents are so busy with work that they probably don't have time to pay attention to the goddess's live broadcasts, and they may not pay attention to the online store opened by the goddess. Therefore, the possibility of them tasting the goddess's craftsmanship is very low. As a daughter and sister, of course I have to contribute my heart."
"That makes sense." Yang Xilin and Lin Qingyi nodded in agreement.
"What about you? Do you all send them back to your own homes?" Chen Jinyue asked back.
"You know what's going on at home, so why would I send them something delicious?" Yang Xilin pouted and said, "I sent the package to my grandparents' house."
Chen Jinyue and everyone else didn't say anything after hearing what she said. The situation in Yang Xilin's family was indeed very complicated, and it was impossible for Yang Xilin to send them delicious food.
Yang Xilin's parents did not get married for political reasons. Although the two families could be considered a good match, the Yang family was actually a little weaker than Yang Xilin's grandfather's family.
But Yang Xilin's mother happened to fall in love with Yang Xilin's father, and the two of them had a passionate love story, which caused a lot of controversy.
The two of them boasted about true love, which made the noble ladies of that generation very sad. Because of Yang Xilin's parents' affairs, they became dissatisfied with their own marriages and envied Yang Xilin's parents for being a well-matched couple and having such a passionate love.
However, the good times did not last long. After Yang Xilin's older brother and sister were born, and when Yang Xilin was still in her mother's womb, Yang Xilin's father cheated on her, and the mistress became pregnant just like Yang Xilin's mother.
The loving couple who once caused a sensation in the city actually cheated on their husbands after just a few years of marriage. Especially since Yang Xilin's mother was not a weak person, she was able to suppress the mistress even when she was pregnant.
But what does it matter if Yang Xilin's mother is strong? The man protects the mistress. Even if Yang Xilin's mother wins the fight with the mistress, she will not feel at ease. Every time she sees the scumbag and the mistress being intimate, Yang Xilin's mother is angry.
Of course, Yang Xilin's mother still loved her husband, but unfortunately after Yang Xilin was born, that man fell in love with another woman and had a mistress. Later, Yang Xilin's mother found out that the mistress was not the first person that this man had cheated with.
In the past, he always said that it was just a casual affair and that he didn't like those women. It was just that since everyone else in the business world had women, he didn't feel sociable. He would refuse some gifts from others, which meant he was not giving them face.
Anyway, Yang Xilin's mother gradually became desperate about this man. She already had a son and two daughters, and she had her own family to support her, so she no longer had any illusions that this man would change his mind.
Yang Xilin's mother is a strong woman, and she has raised her three children very well. However, Yang Xilin's father likes his illegitimate children more, and always feels that his legitimate children are not close to him because of their wife's teaching.
And the elders of the Yang family? The other members of the Yang family?
To them, what Yang Xilin's father did was not something that would anger heaven or man. This kind of thing was commonplace in large families. Which family didn't have a few illegitimate children?
So of course the other members of the Yang family treated Yang Xilin's father's illegitimate children well, and those illegitimate children were treated almost the same as legitimate children.
When Yang Xilin said that the family was in chaos, it was not because her mother was fighting with her father's mistresses and illegitimate children, but because those people were always trying to make trouble for Yang Xilin's mother and were always finding fault.
Yang Xilin's mother did not divorce because she did not want her child to be fatherless, not because she was reluctant to give up the position of Mrs. Yang, and not to prevent the mistress from taking the position. She simply wanted to occupy the position of Mrs. Yang so that her son's interests would not be violated.
She can divorce, but as the eldest son, why should her son give way to the illegitimate child?
Of course, Mrs. Yang is not a good person either. Her husband has so many mistresses and illegitimate children. Can't she still have a relationship with someone else?
Of course, Mrs. Yang was really good to her children. She did not embarrass them because of what happened between her and her husband. She did not have countless lovers like her husband. She just found the best boyfriend and dated him for more than ten years.
Mrs. Yang's boyfriend has a good relationship with Yang Xilin and her two siblings. Yang Xilin is not that close to her mother's boyfriend, but she doesn't hate or dislike him either, because she and her siblings all think that their father is a scumbag, and they strongly agree that their mother should not be punished.
Yang Xilin sent things back home not to the Yang family but to her grandparents' home. This was because her grandparents could give the things to her mother and brothers and sisters, but it was impossible for the Yang family.
"Sometimes I really admire you. Growing up in such an environment, it's really your mother's credit that you didn't grow up crooked." Chen Jinyue and Lin Qingyi both patted Yang Xilin on the shoulders.
Yang Xilin shrugged. She also felt that her mother was the one who made the greatest contribution to her current good family background and positive values. She loved her mother very much.
As for that scumbag dad? Anyway, the siblings all treated this father as a mere decoration, and any feelings they had for him had long since worn away.
