On the second day, Han Zeyu asked Yang the hunter and Han Zeping to go up the mountain to carry the wild boar. The big guy weighed 400 kilograms, and he couldn't get it down by himself, so he simply did them a favor.
The three men carried the half-dead wild boar down the mountain, attracting countless villagers to watch.
This big guy is really fat. How much lard can be made from it?
According to the old rules, Han Zeyu took charge and invited the whole village to enjoy the pig-killing meal. In order to celebrate the birth of a daughter in the Han family, anyone who wanted to buy big fat meat would get a 20% discount.
Everyone was overjoyed and told each other that wild boar meat was already cheaper than domestic pork, and now it was 20% off, which was equivalent to half price. This was a rare opportunity, so they had to buy more.
Anyone who has a little spare money will buy four or five pounds of it. Now that it is time to work hard, it is time to add some oil and water to the family.
Speaking of working hard on the farm, Han Zeyu thought that since everyone had gotten a good deal, why not build his shop before the spring plowing began?
This was a big event of slaughtering a pig, and every household came to watch the fun. Just when everyone was present, the village chief announced the matter on behalf of Han Zeyu.
It will be the same crew as last time. If anyone can't go, just tell him so he can recruit new people to fill in.
My family members can do the spring plowing, and the opportunity to work outside is rare. Besides, that is the provincial capital, and I can go there to see the world and broaden my horizons. Who knows, this may be the only chance like this in my lifetime.
Everyone said on the spot that they would go, and no one fell behind. The construction period was only half a month, and it would not delay the main work.
The construction period is fifteen days, including food, accommodation and travel expenses. Each person can get a salary of 330 coins, which is worth the hard work.
It was decided that we would gather at the ferry three days later and take a boat to the provincial capital, which would take only two hours. If anyone was prone to seasickness, please prepare ginger, orange peel, and other things in advance.
When they heard that they could take a boat ride, everyone became even more excited and started discussing it heatedly, asking each other if they would get seasick.
In fact, most of the villagers had never been on a boat, so they had no idea whether they would get dizzy, but they couldn't be scared and insisted that they were fine.
In fact, I was also hesitant, so I decided to go home and ask my wife to secretly prepare some ginger, garlic, etc., which are spicy, and maybe if I chew them, I won't want to vomit.
The eldest cousin's wife gave birth safely, and Han Zeyu fulfilled his promise and gave all eight pig's trotters from the two wild boars to Wang Qin.
Pig's trotters stewed with soybeans, this treatment is so unique that others can only envy it.
When Wang Qin's family heard the news, they brought an old hen to see their daughter and found that the hen was a good eater and looked very healthy.
What else could the bride's family say? They could only hold the bride's hand and express their gratitude.
Both mother and daughter are safe, and both are plump and fair. It can be seen that Wang Qin took good care of herself during pregnancy.
My son-in-law is also very nice, considerate and thoughtful. He even washes diapers for the baby, which is the most rare thing.
The old hen was left behind, and the aunt-in-law gave her in-laws two pounds of pork, which was given by the child's cousin. She took it back for the family to eat and share in the good luck.
Wang Qin's sister-in-law was a little jealous, and couldn't help but say a few sour words on the way back.
"My little sister is so lucky to have married into such a good family. Look at how considerate her husband is, how kind her mother-in-law is, and even her brother-in-law from the next room is so nice to her. If she gives birth to a big fat boy next year, she will have completely established herself."
The Queen Mother thought that there was nothing wrong with the first words, and that her daughter was just lucky, but what were the words that came after that?
"The brother-in-law from the next room? She's the eldest young lady of the Su family. Shut up and don't bring trouble to the Wang family!"
The eldest daughter-in-law choked and quickly defended herself, "I didn't mean anything else. I just envy my younger sister's good life at her husband's house. They make confinement soup all the time and have plenty of pig's trotters. I just haven't seen anything like this."
The Queen Mother snorted and laughed: "You don't have to envy me. After all, when you were in confinement, your in-laws didn't even send you a hen, let alone a chicken."
The eldest daughter-in-law was suddenly speechless. Her mother-in-law seemed to be scolding her, but what she said was true.
Her family is indeed not kind. According to the local customs, the man pays the betrothal gift and the woman gives the dowry. It doesn't have to be much, as long as the intention is there. Of course, the more dowry, the more confident the bride will be in her husband's family.
When she got married, her husband's family gave her a betrothal gift of two taels of silver, which was very high in their village, but her parents were really stingy and gave her nothing.
Later, when she gave birth, her parents also hid away, not even sending the old mother hen, but coming to the full moon banquet with a flattering face.
What a fool she is. She keeps bringing up things that are not related to the topic and even irritates her mother-in-law. Why can't she control her mouth?
…
Han Zeyu will be returning tomorrow. He has to go back to prepare the foundation first and practice his new skill, which is digging wells.
This is a skill he learned from others. The last time a house was built, he watched the whole process.
Having experienced the baptism of the end of the world, the master of civil engineering department does not allow himself to have any shortcomings. He wants to equip himself with various skills.
Before leaving, he had to go up the mountain. Before he even left the house, he saw Zhao Xun sneaking into the yard, and then he lay down by the door, looking around curiously.
Han Zeyu was speechless. This kid still has such a strong desire to steal. Everyone in the village knows that you are hanging out with me now. Is it necessary to be so careful?
If your hair hadn't grown out yet, I would have thought you were here to have a tryst with me.
Zhao Xun made sure that there was no "tail" behind him, and then he ran over to report to Brother Han with peace of mind.
Widow Liu and Er Gouzi went up the mountain one after another, and the reliable informant Comrade Erya was following them from a distance.
Han Zeyu raised his eyebrows. Didn’t these two go their separate ways? Why were they going into the woods together?
The trees on the mountain are still bare, which is not conducive to hiding. Little girl Erya, don't let those two animals discover you again.
Picking up a large backpack, Han Zeyu asked Zhao Xun to lead the way, find Erya first, ensure her safety and then talk about other things.
Erya still knew she had to protect herself, so she hid behind a big rock at the foot of the mountain.
The dark and thin little girl squatted there. If Han Zeyu didn't have special abilities, ordinary people would not be able to find her.
He pulled Erya's pigtails and told her not to be so reckless in the future, saying that nothing is more important than life.
A thug like Ergou is capable of using heavy hands against Zhao Xun. If he finds out that Erya dares to follow him, there's no telling what kind of cruel things he might do.
The eleven-year-old boy was unable to fight back, and Erya, with her skinny body, could only wait to die.
Let’s first see what this pair of dogs are plotting. If it doesn’t work, drive them out of Yunshan Village. They don’t have to be killed, but their existence is always a hidden danger.
Han Zeyu wanted to go up the mountain to take a look, so he asked the two little ones to hide and took them to dig wild vegetables later.
The bare trees really didn't provide much shelter, and Han Zeyu quickly found the two's position.
However, because of the sparse trees, Han Zeyu could not get closer. He could see the two people standing together, but he could not hear what they were talking about.
Han Zeyu suddenly had an idea. In order to find out the truth, he had no choice but to let you take away his few outer clothes.
