Chapter 198 Mutton for Food

Although wild goats have little fighting power, they must be dealt with as soon as possible.

So as to avoid too much trouble at night.

Liu Yinyin breathed a sigh of relief. In order to prevent accidents, she would bring an axe for self-defense every time she went up the mountain.

The axe was smuggled out of the system by her. It was light and sharp, very suitable for carrying around.

Liu Yinyin took out an axe from her backpack...

After a moment, the wild goat was dealt with by her.

This goat is quite fat, probably weighing around 120 kilograms.

For a moment, Liu Yinyin was a little confused and didn't know how to deal with this wild goat.

Let's take it back... It's tiring to carry such a goat down the mountain, and besides, we can't eat all the meat if we take it back.

Of course, Liu Yinyin could also sell the wild goats to the system, which would be the most convenient way, but saving money without using it is not the same thing...

After much deliberation, Liu Yinyin decided to take the wild goats back.

There was no point in delaying any longer, so Liu Yinyin no longer thought about looking for pine milk mushrooms.

Put the wild goats under the backpack and cover them with a layer of grass.

Fearing that the smell of blood would attract other wild animals, Liu Yinyin buried the blood of the wild goat in the soil and cleaned it up.

Liu Yinyin carried the wild goat down the mountain on her back. She rested for a while when she was tired and stopped and walked along the way.

Normally, she could get down the mountain in an hour, but this time it took her nearly twice as long.

When they were almost at the foot of the mountain, Liu Yinyin took a closer look...

Due to the infestation of locusts, there are no wild vegetables to pick on the mountains now.

However, there are quite a few villagers coming to the mountain.

Anyway, there is no work to do in the fields now, so everyone wants to try their luck in the mountains, maybe they can find some fish that have escaped the net.

What’s more, if you’re lucky, you can even pick some wild mushrooms.

Liu Yinyin chose a less traveled path and returned to the end of the village carrying the backpack.

As soon as I got home, I quickly put down the backpack.

After carrying it all the way, her shoulders were red.

Liu Yinyin rested for a while, moved out a board, spread the wild goat on the board, and skinned and divided the meat.

She could have handled the goat by herself, but it would have taken too long.

It was almost three o'clock now. After the meat was divided, Liu Yinyin wanted to go to the county town to exchange some food with Aunt Li.

Liu Yinyin rested for a while, went to the kitchen to boil a pot of water, threw some firewood into the stove, closed the door and went to Liu's house.

It just so happened that Liu Mingyuan was chopping wood at home, and several children were playing in the yard.

Gu Yanyan was covered in mud after playing, but she didn't have time to take care of him at the moment.

"Third brother..." Liu Yinyin spoke to him in a low voice, "Come home with me."

"What are you doing?" Seeing his younger sister looking mysterious, Liu Mingyuan was puzzled.

Liu Yinyin didn't know how to say it directly, so she just said, "You'll know if you come with me..."

After a pause, Liu Yinyin added, "Don't worry, it's a good thing."

Upon hearing this, Liu Mingyuan, who was not stupid, guessed something.

Follow Liu Yinyin to the end of the village.

Seeing the wild goats in the yard, Liu Mingyuan was startled: "...Hey guys, where did you get the goats?"

Liu Yinyin explained with a smile: "I just went up the mountain and found it in a trap."

"Is it true?" Liu Mingyuan asked doubtfully. It's not that he didn't believe Liu Yinyin, but...

Strangely enough, when Liu Yinyin's family moved to the county town, the Liu brothers also went to the mountains several times.

But, let alone wild boars and wild goats, they had never seen even a pheasant feather.

But every time Liu Yinyin went back to the mountain, she could find prey, and this time it was everyone’s group!

The gap is so huge, can Liu Mingyuan balance it in his heart?

Liu Yinyin actually found it a bit strange. Her luck was indeed very good. Could it be that she really had some special koi physique?

Thinking about it, Liu Yinyin felt that it was unlikely. She smiled and said, "Of course it's true. There are traces of wild goats struggling in traps on the mountain. If you don't believe it, you can go and see it."

No matter what, the prey that Liu Yinyin found in the trap every time was indeed real.

"That's not necessary." Liu Mingyuan said, "You and your brother-in-law are just lucky. We can't envy you. By the way, you asked me to come here to help you kill the sheep?"

Liu Yinyin hummed twice: "I want to take some mutton to the county town to exchange for food later."

There are only three people in the family, so we definitely can't finish all the mutton.

There is bacon and salted meat at home, so Liu Yinyin doesn't plan to pickle the meat anymore and just wants to eat it fresh.

If you can’t finish it, take it to the county town to sell.

Just then, the water boiled, and Liu Yinyin took out the hot water and poured it on the wild goats.

Liu Mingyuan was shaving a wild goat.

This is not the first time Liu Mingyuan has done this kind of work, so he is quite experienced.

It wasn't long before the goats were cleaned up.

Liu Mingyuan suddenly asked: "Do you want me to go with you?"

Or you can wait for Gu Cheng to come back and handle it.

Otherwise, it would not be easy for Liu Yinyin to carry so much meat to the county town by herself.

Liu Yinyin thought about it, shook her head and said, "No, I can just go to the village chief's house and borrow a bicycle."

The family's newly bought bicycle was left in the compound and was not brought back.

Riding a bicycle to the county town is fast and convenient, so Liu Yinyin wanted to borrow the village chief's bicycle.

As he spoke, he asked Liu Mingyuan to help cut a piece of mutton weighing about two kilograms.

Liu Yinyin carried a basket to the village chief's house to look for someone.

Perhaps because there was not much work to do in the fields, both Liu Changquan and his wife were at home today.

"Yin Yin, what's the matter?" Li Chunfang asked.

Liu Yinyin got straight to the point: "Auntie, I want to borrow your bicycle to go to the county town."

Li Chunfang agreed without thinking: "Okay, I'll go inside and push the bike out."

Li Chunfang didn't think much about it. They were all from the same village, and it was normal for them to help each other.

However, when she saw the two kilograms of mutton that Liu Yinyin gave her.

Li Chunfang immediately lost her composure. She asked in surprise, "This is... your family hunted wild goats again?"

Liu Yinyin whispered, "Well, I'm thinking of going to the county town to exchange some food."

What else could Li Chunfang say? She could only envy Liu Yinyin's good luck.

If it were in the past, she would definitely exchange a few more pounds of mutton with Liu Yinyin, but now......

Forget it. There isn't much food left at home. We should just eat sparingly.

Even with these two kilograms of mutton, she still took advantage of Liu Yinyin.

Li Chunfang gave her the bicycle and only said, "Be careful and don't let anyone see you."

At this time, don't underestimate other people's conjunctivitis.

There have been many cases of food robberies in other villages, and I heard that in serious cases, blood was even shed.

In times of famine, if people are really hungry, they will do anything.

Liu Yinyin nodded: "Don't worry, I will be careful."

After removing the fur from a wild goat, there is still a lot of meat left, at least a hundred pounds.
