Chapter 10: Getting a Wild Boar by Luck
Li Laoer gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Big brother, you take a rest for a while, I'll call you later!" He tightened the hoe in his hand again and again, he really wanted to shovel it over with one hoe, you're so lazy!
Next time I have to do the work with the third brother, he is the best at it.
What a coincidence, Boss Li also thought so. There was no need for him to be so tired when working with the third brother.
It’s another day when I miss the third child. I wonder where my mother took him?
Are they really going hunting in the mountains? They don't have much prey here, and they haven't heard any wild animals roaring.
Just as he was thinking this, a shrill scream of a wild beast was heard from afar. Boss Li jumped up from the ground in shock. "What's that scream? Why doesn't it sound like a human scream?"
Li Laoer picked up the hoe and looked across, but the bamboo forest blocked his view and he could not see anything.
Yuan swallowed her saliva, rushed over in three or two steps, and grabbed Li Laoer's sleeve, "Master, mother is not really taking the third son to go hunting, is she?"
No way. No way.
An old lady and a little girl, even if the third brother is strong...it won't work.
Could it be... that the mother-in-law asked Daya to be the bait? Thinking of this, Yuan's eyes almost popped out and she quickly covered her heart which was beating too fast. It seemed that this possibility was not impossible.
My mother-in-law never liked the maids in the first room before, but now she suddenly called the first girl. Could there be any good news?
Ask Daya to lure the wolf, and when the wolf is eating people, the third brother will knock the wolf down with a pickaxe.
"Hiss!" Yuan's legs went weak. "Master, master, our mother, if Daya dies, it's not our fault! It was mother who wanted to take her with her."
Daya, if you become a ghost and have any grievances or grudges, go find your grandma, but don't come to us!
"Who died? Second sister-in-law, tell me again who died? Do you know something? What did mother tell you?" Boss Li became anxious.
He despised the eldest, second and third daughters but never thought of killing them. The reason he could still feel comfortable at home was entirely because his daughters were capable and could take care of all the big and small things at home. When his wife was not in good health, she was also a good farmer. When he was a little lazy, his mother turned a blind eye.
Yuan was so frightened that she hurriedly pushed away Boss Li. "Brother, I don't know. I don't know anything. It was Mother who wanted to take Daya out. What does it have to do with me? Brother, if you're worried, go over and take a look."
Before Yuan finished speaking, Li Lao Da ran away with his hoe on his shoulder. Li Lao Er followed suit and picked up the hoe. "You stay here and dig for a while. I'll go take a look too."
"Me, alone?!" No way! "Wait a minute, I'll go take a look too. If Daya is really dead, I'll help with the burial. It'll be my second aunt's responsibility."
Daya at the foot of Shuang'an Mountain had no idea that in the eyes of her second aunt she was just a skeleton. She didn't care about the sneezes that kept coming one after another. Next to her were Qin Fangci and Li Laosan who were also sneezing continuously. Who was scolding them? It was so annoying!
Yes, just now, when they bent down to pick ferns, a big wild boar fell from the cliff with a howl. It was the kind that ran so fast that it couldn't stop and dived down.
The wild boar's short and strong hooves kicked wildly in the air in panic, trying to steady its body. As a result, the wild boar not only fell heavily to the ground, but its heavy body bounced back and rolled towards the foot of the mountain with inertia, jumping over them and crushing countless bushes along the way.
Li Laosan didn't even have time to react before the backpack next to him was pierced by the wild boar's hoof and rolled away. In a short while, the backpack turned into mud.
"My backpack. My fern." Li Laosan wanted to chase after her, but Qin Fangci finally came to her senses. "What backpack? What backpack?"
Isn’t it said that this place is very safe and there are no wild animals here?
She didn't even think of picking up a rabbit, but a wild boar fell from the sky.
She almost went over there to pick ferns, and almost got killed by the wild boar.
With her old bones, she will be in a worse state than a backpack after rolling around. Her brains will be squeezed out!
"Let's go down and take a look." Qin Fangci looked back at the top of the high cliff. It seemed that no wild boar was about to fall.
You can also hear the howl of the wild boar above as it brakes suddenly, the chaotic footsteps of the wild boars running back in panic, and the creaking of trees being hit.
It seems this is the only silly pig.
Qin Fangci threw the basket to Li Laosan and pulled Daya down the mountain.
On the way down the mountain, Qin Fangci couldn't help but look back several times, and it was really gone.
The three of them walked all the way to the foot of the mountain. The wild boar was lying there with its legs spread out, as if it was completely dead. It must have been killed directly by the blow that fell down. No screams were heard as the wild boar rolled down the slope.
Don’t mention it, it’s pretty miserable.
The pig's head was crooked, three of its hooves were broken, and its body was covered with scars. Blood was gushing out, what a pity!
"Mom, you guys step back first, I'll go see if it's dead."
Li Laosan clenched the pickaxe in his hand. If the wild boar pretended to be dead and jumped up, he would hit it with the pickaxe and kill it completely.
Daya swallowed her saliva and said, "Grandma, this wild boar is ours, right?" The wild boar was screaming too loudly. If the villagers heard it, they would come over...
"Of course it's ours. We got the wild boar by luck!"
Daya quietly turned her head to look at her grandmother, and the corners of her tightly pursed lips slowly curled up, as if she was dreaming.
But when she was happy, she couldn't help but think of what her grandmother said about selling them. Maybe it was all false. Daya lowered her head, quickly digesting her emotions, and when she raised her head again, she was the nervous and timid Daya again.
In the Li family courtyard, Li Baisong, who was teaching Dadan and Erdan to write the word "tian", broke the small wooden stick in his hand.
Dadan and Erdan both tensed up at the same time. Erdan said quickly, "Uncle, I've learned the word 'tian'. I'll write it for you."
"I can write too." Dadaner clenched the small wooden stick in his hand and glanced secretly at Erdaner.
Li Baisong tried hard to calm himself down. He had just been to that area yesterday. It was very empty and there were a lot of gravel. There was not even a rabbit to be seen, let alone a wild boar.
"Why, why does it sound like a wild boar?" Mrs. Du put down the ash in her hand and looked in the direction of Shuang'an Mountain.
Wang also rushed out from the kitchen.
"Don't think too much, Sister-in-law. We haven't seen any wild animals here for years. Maybe it was a fight between wild boars on the cliff. Mother and the others will definitely be back soon."
Qin Fangci couldn't come back for a while because the wild boar was too big.
The three of them had no way of lifting it.
"Daya, go to the fields and tell your father and second uncle to go home and get the cart rope and bring the machete. If we can't tow it, we can just unload the four pig legs here and transport them back bit by bit."
Daya responded and turned around and ran quickly, fearing that if she ran too slowly, the wild boar would be snatched away by someone.
With such a big wild boar, you shouldn't want to sell them for the time being, right?
God has opened his eyes...
