After arriving at Chen Dazhuang's house, Master Chen Jianjun saw the sacks and yellow-haired pigs carried by the two men. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly helped to take the prey.
It's a bit commonplace.
He was used to the two men's bad luck in hunting.
When he was young, there were more resources in the mountains and his hunting skills were definitely better than the two of them, but it would take him at most ten days or half a month to catch a big animal like a wild boar.
When you are unlucky, it is normal to only be able to bring back one or two pheasants or rabbits.
What about these two children?
Since we formed a team to go hunting in the mountains, we seem to have a good harvest every time.
The master quickly helped to skin the roe deer, and the remaining meat weighed about 40 kilograms.
Then came the little yellow-haired wild boar. Apart from the skin and internal organs, there was about 70 kilograms of meat left.
Including the civet cat that was not dead yet, the master killed it with one knife, then skillfully skinned it and took out its internal organs.
Half of the internal organs of the three preys were kept, and the rest were thrown to Chen Dazhuang's puppy "Yanwang".
"You can keep the skins and sell them in town next time. What about the meat? Are you going to sell it or eat it?"
Chen Jianjun asked.
"Master, you can share half of what you helped. You can take mine back to eat. We don't have much meat at home. These are all very good."
Chen Wang replied.
Chen Dazhuang nodded and agreed, "Then let's divide it first. I'll go back and ask Lao Qian if he wants it. If not, he can eat it himself."
There was no shortage of meat in his family, and the ones he had before could not be finished.
Chen Wang sent a lot of meat to his wife's family, otherwise it would be enough to eat until the New Year.
"OK!"
Chen Jianjun responded, and then cut the prey into two in a few moves.
As for the remaining pheasants and rabbits in the sack, Chen Wang asked for three rabbits.
Chen Wang borrowed a sack for his own use, put all the prey he had been given into it, and also wrapped the internal organs in a piece of cloth and placed them inside.
"Master, Brother Zhuang, I'll leave first."
Chen Wang carried the sack and said goodbye to the two of them with a smile.
"Awang, are you going to town tomorrow?"
Chen Dazhuang asked.
"Not yet. We only have three skins now. We'll go into the mountains tomorrow and get some more good stuff to sell together."
Chen Wang replied.
"Okay!"
Chen Dazhuang nodded.
"Leave."
Chen Wang smiled, then left with the little monkey.
After Chen Jianjun watched him leave, he looked at his son and asked, "How did you two get so many things today?"
"We couldn't help it. We were just too lucky. We found a lot of rabbit droppings in one place, so we set up a lot of traps. In just a few hours, we caught several rabbits. We also killed civets and roe deer. When we were about to leave the mountain, we encountered this yellow-haired pig."
Chen Dazhuang smiled with great satisfaction and briefly described today's hunting process.
Chen Jianjun rolled his eyes and said angrily, "You are just riding on Awang's luck, why are you showing off here?"
"I... who said I was lucky? Maybe I am just lucky?"
"Then your previous hunting experience over the past few years combined didn't yield as much as you did in the past half month, right? How do you explain that?"
“…”
Chen Dazhuang was speechless for a moment.
"In my opinion, Awang may have accumulated great fortune in the first half of his life. Now he is not stupid anymore, and his fortune is also very prosperous!"
Chen Jianjun expressed his thoughts.
"If you put it that way, it's possible."
Chen Dazhuang nodded thoughtfully.
As a teammate of Chen Wang, he was deeply touched by his good luck during this period.
"So, it is your greatest fortune that you can go hunting with Awang. Stop showing off in the future. Hurry up and move the meat to the back room."
Chen Jianjun pointed at the meat on the ground and said in an unquestionable tone.
Chen Dazhuang curled his lips and did as he was told.

When I walked past my neighbor Joe's house, I saw Old Joe and his wife sitting at the door eating from bowls.
"Uncle Qiao, Auntie, are you eating?"
Chen Wang greeted him with a smile.
"Well, you just came back from the mountains. What good stuff did you catch?"
Old Joe shifted his gaze to the sack he was carrying and asked curiously.
"Nothing much, just a few pheasants and rabbits."
Chen Wang made an evasive remark.
"This sack is full, and there are a few pheasants and rabbits. This must be another good catch!"
Old Joe exposed him with a smile.
Chen Wang just smiled, then decisively changed the subject and asked, "Where's Qiao Zhijie? Why can't I see him?"
Old Joe's face froze, and he smiled bitterly and replied, "I don't know where he went to have fun. I can't care about him anymore."
"Uncle, that won't do. This son must be properly disciplined. As the saying goes, a good son is made under the stick. When my father was alive, he often beat me."
Chen Wang said seriously.
"Yeah?"
Old Joe was stunned for a moment and looked at his wife with an inquiring look.
They lived next door and had never heard Chen Wang’s father beating or scolding them before.
Old Joe's wife shook her head slightly, also with a look of surprise on her face.
"Really? It's just that I used to be stubborn. I didn't say a word when my dad spanked me. Now my brain is working better and I still remember my dad's teachings. My body still remembers the pain of being spanked by a bamboo stick."
"So, I dare not slack off at all now. I must work hard to support this family and let my wife and sister live a good life, so as not to disappoint my father's ardent expectations of me."
