Chapter 222 Two Options



After returning to the village, the meat was moved directly to the house rented by Chen Wang.

"Uncle Tao, take a look at which part of the meat you want, and I'll cut some for you."

Chen Wang said to Chen Wentao with a smile.

"How can this be so embarrassing!"

Chen Wentao smiled awkwardly and said, "Then cut me some pork belly!"

For people who are short of oil and water these days, pork belly is undoubtedly the best part.

Chen Wang didn't say anything. He took a knife and cut a piece of pork belly weighing four or five pounds and handed it over.

Chen Wentao hesitated to speak and reached out to take the meat.

"Thank you. I'll be leaving now."

"OK!"

After watching him leave, Chen Dazhuang couldn't help but say, "Awang, he was obviously a little dissatisfied just now, so don't call him next time."

"Um!"

Chen Wang nodded.

On the way back, Chen Wentao kept saying nice things, but there was always a clear hint of sourness in his words, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

Afterwards, Chen Wang and the other man divided up today's harvest.

Each person received a wild rabbit and a pheasant, a pair of deer antlers, half a pig's meat, and half of the Artemisia capillaris.

"Awang, I'll leave the antlers with you. We can take them to town to sell for money later."

"good!"

"Then we'll go back first. We still have to cook for the construction team."

"Go quickly!"

"Leave."

Chen Jianjun picked up the sack and walked out the door.

After watching them leave, Chen Wang and his wife packed up their things, and then Lin Xiuqin took the pheasants and rabbits to deal with them.

"Brother, you guys killed such a big wild boar again, awesome."

The little girl smiled and gave a thumbs up.

Chen Wang smiled and pinched her cheek, jokingly saying, "That can't be helped. Who let you be such a greedy cat at home? If I don't bring back some meat, what will you eat?"

"Hey, I'm not the only one who eats meat, brother, you eat more than me!"

The little girl slapped his hand away and pouted in protest.

"Ha ha……"

Chen Wang rubbed her head with amusement and said, "Go and help your sister-in-law. I'll go back to my room to rest."

"Yeah, I'll go help."

The little girl agreed obediently and ran out of the house.

Chen Wang returned to his room, took off his dirty coat and pants, and went to bed for a nap.

When the little girl woke him up from his sleep, he saw his wife bringing the food into the house and placing it on the table.

Two dishes and one soup, one is stir-fried pheasant with peppers, one is stir-fried cabbage, and the other is stewed wild boar ribs with radish.

Lin Xiuqin handed him a large bowl of rice.

Chen Wang took it with a smile.

"Brother, here are the chopsticks for you."

The little girl handed over a pair of chopsticks.

"Thanks!"

Chen Wang took the chopsticks and put a piece of chicken into his wife's bowl.

Seeing the little girl looking at him with longing eyes, Chen Wang picked up a piece of cabbage for her with chopsticks.

"You should eat more vegetables, it's good for your health."

"elder brother……"

The little girl looked at him aggrievedly.

Lin Xiuqin couldn't help laughing and put a piece of pork ribs into her bowl.

"Humph, my sister-in-law is still good to me, you stinky brother!"

"Hmm? Watch your words. Who brought back all this meat?"

"I was wrong. My brother is the best, and my sister-in-law is the best too."

The little girl performed a series of lightning-fast face changes.

"That's more like it."

Chen Wang smiled playfully.

Lin Xiuqin was secretly happy on the side, taking a soup spoon and serving a bowl of soup to each of them.

After entering March, the temperature officially began to warm up, and the New Year was truly over.

The arrival of spring and the blooming of flowers mean that farmers are starting to get busy.

Before mid-March, spring wheat planting will be basically completed, and preparations for planting and raising seedlings of other crops such as rice and corn will also begin.

After his parents passed away, Chen Wang's family's few acres of land were taken care of by his wife alone.

Now that his wife is pregnant, Chen Wang naturally cannot let her go to the fields again.

However, Chen Wang himself had no farming skills, so he could only find a way to ask others for help.

The few acres of land at home are next to my uncle's house, and on the other side are old Qiao's family's fields.

In the past two years, Lin Xiuqin had several disputes with her uncle's family over farming and suffered a lot of grievances.

It was naturally impossible for Chen Wang to ask his uncle's family for help.

After breakfast, Chen Wang cut a few pounds of meat from the wild boar he had killed yesterday and carried it to Lao Qiao's house.

The construction team is already busy at the homestead next to my house.

Since the house he wanted to build covered a large area, it would take several days to complete the foundation.

"Uncle Qiao, are you home?"

After reaching the door, Chen Wang shouted inside.

"Who is it?"

Old Joe, hearing the sound, walked out of the room.

Seeing the meat in his hand, Old Joe looked puzzled.

"Awang, why are you here? Come in, come in."

"Awang?"

Old Qiao's wife also came out and looked at him in surprise.

"Uncle Qiao, Auntie, I came to talk to you about something. I shot a wild boar yesterday and brought some for you."

Chen Wang walked into the house with a smile and handed the meat in his hand to Lao Qiao.

"Let's talk business, why bring meat?"

Old Qiao said this, but still reached out to take the meat and handed it to his wife.

"Come, come, I'll pour you some tea!"

"Uncle Qiao, don't bother."

"What's the trouble? Let's talk after we have some tea."
