Rolling his eyes at Su Shien, Han Zeyu poked his head out again and accused his father, "Look, you only know how to criticize me. The old ancestor is unhappy and is protecting us!"
As soon as Han Zeyu finished speaking, the leaves swirled towards Han Cheng.
Han Cheng was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. A bunch of dead leaves were blown onto his legs, and there was an iron pillar to set the mood. This time, he had no choice but to believe it.
Han Zeyu shouted at the iron pillar again, "Stop knocking your head! You caught this wild boar, did you hear me?"
Tiezhu let out a confused cry. How did he end up being the one caught?
Su Shien frowned and was about to order Tiezhu to do as he was told, but this kid was so stubborn that it would be better to just give him an order than to reason with him.
Han Zeyu said firmly: "Don't you want to eat pig's head? There are big meat buns tomorrow!"
Under Su Shien's surprised gaze, Tie Zhu nodded vigorously and said in a deep voice, "I killed the wild boar. Anyone who asks me will say it was me. If you ask me how I killed it, I won't tell you. It's a secret."
Han Zeyu nodded in satisfaction and promised, "The whole pig's head is yours, and you can have as many big steamed buns with braised pork as you want."
Tiezhu went to the pit to trap a wild boar. He had never worked so hard in his life. Su Shien was left in tears and laughter. It turned out that Tiezhu also had some brains. Although not much, he really put them to good use.
Tiezhu wanted to carry the wild boar down on his back, but Han Zeyu, a half-grown boy, was not Zhou Baopi, so he suggested finding a big branch and everyone worked together to carry the wild boar down.
The main force is definitely Tiezhu and Han Zeyu, but with the combined efforts of four people, he will appear less prominent.
The wild boar was still alive, and the mule was terrified, shaking its legs. Han Zeyu scolded it, "You useless thing, today I'll either eat it or I'll eat you. It's up to you!"
The mule didn't understand what he was saying, but felt that the man next to him was more terrifying than a wild boar. He spread his hooves and ran all the way without anyone leading the way, and turned on the automatic navigation mode towards the direction of the Han family.
Han Zeyu picked up a stone and threw it at the running mule, shouting, "I'm going to die! I haven't even gotten on the cart yet! Are you trying to elope with the wild boar?"
The mule that was hit on the butt ran faster, leaving the terrorist far behind.
Han Cheng said awkwardly: "Actually, my brother Yu is not usually like this, really..."
It's wrong to lie, and he can't continue his story.
Su Shien followed behind with his hands behind his back, smiling, "I know, Yu Ge'er is usually very gentle."
Han Cheng looked at him strangely. He was a good kid, but his eyesight was not good.
A villager who had just returned from the fields saw the mule running wildly and quickly hid to the sides. What happened? Was the mule frightened?
Han Zeyu followed behind and apologized: "Uncle Zhong, don't be afraid. We just caught a wild boar. We will treat everyone to a pig-killing meal tomorrow."
Old Zhong nodded blankly, thinking to himself, is there such a good thing?
It turned out to be true. The next morning, the village chief came forward to find Yang the hunter and asked him to help kill the pig. There was no special butcher in their village, so they usually asked Yang the hunter for help when slaughtering the New Year pig.
Killing a pig makes too much noise, and since it will be discovered sooner or later, it’s better to treat everyone to a meal.
It is the autumn harvest season, and everyone will have more to eat. But even if no one is hungry, most families are still short of oil and water.
Hunter Yang's family had no shortage of meat. He took the pig hair and pig skin as compensation, and filled several large basins with the cut meat. Families with more financial resources would also come to buy some meat. Although wild boar meat was not as fragrant as domestic pork, it was cheaper and they didn't have to travel all the way to the county town.
Tiezhu's pig head was requisitioned, and Han Zeyu told him to relax. The wild boar's head was not tasty, and it was a waste of firewood and teeth. They would stew more meat at home later, and Tiezhu could eat as much as he wanted.
Although Tiezhu looks tall and strong, he is actually only about sixteen years old. Since he doesn't know his origins and birthday, he can only make a rough estimate.
Tiezhu was picked up by the deceased Madam Su. He developed a high fever when he arrived at the Su Mansion, which directly led to Tiezhu's underdeveloped intellectual development. He was about three or four years behind his peers.
Han Zeyu, who has experienced the end of the world, doesn't like those people who are as cunning as a hornet's nest. He thinks that people like Tiezhu who are honest are good, and he plans to take him away when he plans to divide the family business.
The Han family had dinner together today. They did not join in the pig-killing stew at the village head, but only scooped a small basin of pig blood to make blood tofu.
My uncle's family also came empty-handed, and my eldest cousin caught two fat ducks.
The aunt-in-law excitedly shared with Han Zeyu that more than half of the ducks she raised were ready to be slaughtered, and she wanted to ask Yu Ge'er if there were any sales channels.
Han Zeyu looked at the ducks raised in the big house with envy, and then looked at the chickens raised in his own house. It turned out that more than half of them were laying hens, and it would take more than a year for them to start laying eggs.
When he heard his aunt asking him about sales channels, he thought, what's the point of selling them? Just roast them and eat them!
When he thought of the crispy roast duck, his mouth watered like a torrent.
He invited his aunt to come to his house tomorrow to steam braised pork buns. After receiving a positive response, Han Zeyu excitedly went to the backyard to build a simple oven.
Su Shien had reservations about his young husband playing in the mud, but that didn't stop him from rolling up his sleeves.
The villagers got a free pig-killing meal and were full of praise for the Han family. They heard that the big wild boar was caught by the servant of the Su family. They had all seen that boy before. He was tall and definitely a good worker. It was a pity that he came from a poor family, otherwise they could have found a marriage for him.
Tiezhu's food at the Su Mansion was pretty good. The servants' food naturally couldn't compare with that of their masters, but he wasn't picky. As long as he didn't go hungry, it was fine.
But for all these years, he had only managed to avoid going hungry, and he could only eat a full meal during the Chinese New Year. This was the first time he had experienced the feeling of eating too much.
The food at Zhengjun's house is so delicious! He has never even heard of some of the dishes.
Han Zeyu painted a rosy picture for the silly boy, promising him that as long as he followed the couple loyally, he would be able to eat his fill every day.
This made Tiezhu very happy. He stopped calling Han Zeyu "Zhengjun" and started calling him "master".
Han Zeyu said that he should keep a low profile. When in the mansion, he could just call her Young Madam or Eldest Young Madam. When there was no one around, he could call her Master.
Su Shien was also eye-opening. I didn't expect that he could marry a young husband and learn how to control people from him. My brother Yu is so amazing.
