Sitting in the living room drinking tea, An Wan could hear a jumble of noises outside through the old wooden door, which made her ears hurt.
Lu Zhili wasn't greatly affected; he was engrossed in reading the comic book.
Lu Jiayan silently sipped his tea, while keeping an eye on An Wan's behavior.
She was drinking tea, but her bright eyes kept glancing at the doorway, her expression very serious and focused.
The more you look at him, the more precocious he seems, and he even has a touch of mystery about him.
——
About half an hour later, it finally became quiet outside.
An Wan then saw the door being pushed open, and Lu Sen walked in.
He frowned and pursed his lips, looking very sad.
"Is everything resolved?" Yunping, who had just entered the living room, felt distressed upon seeing him like this.
No matter how good or filial her husband was to Mrs. Lu, he never received her respect or fair treatment.
Even if he doesn't want her maternal love, a word of praise would be enough.
"Have some tea! Take a break. Don't think too much, let's just focus on our own little family life."
"Hmm." Lu Sen took the teacup from Yun Ping's hand, glanced at her blankly, and then lowered his eyes.
Sigh, he's so useless.
The three brothers' families each received three catties of pork. Old Mrs. Lu received three catties, but instead of receiving her praise, she was accused of wrongdoing, with people saying that since the wild boar belonged to her, she should have received the whole thing instead of just three catties to appease a beggar.
They cursed him for being unfilial, wishing him to be struck by lightning and die a horrible death.
Old Mrs. Lu is becoming increasingly arrogant, making it difficult for my wife to stay at home and often suffer her temper.
It seems that if he has the ability, he will have to move from the village to the county town.
“I’ll boil water and kill the two pheasants and the rabbit. We’ll have a nice lunch, and we’ll save one pheasant to cook for the kids to take to school.”
Yunping smiled gently and patted Lu Sen's shoulder lightly.
"Pheasants and rabbits? Where did they come from?" He was taken aback when he heard her words.
When did you get these pheasants and rabbits?
How could he not know?
Lu Zhili put down the comic book and excitedly exclaimed, "My sister and I brought these back from the mountain, Dad! Aren't we amazing!"
He thought his sister was amazing, but he was not bad either; at least he was no longer a stupid person who only knew how to eat and poop.
"You brought it back? How is that possible?" Lu Sen didn't believe it. It was one thing to encounter a wild boar, but someone else had helped kill it.
But the pheasants and rabbits wouldn't attack them, so could it be that someone else killed them for them?
"We brought it back; we're really good at this," Lu Zhili said, giving himself a thumbs-up.
An Wan sighed, worried that he might let something slip.
Lu Jiayan noticed her little action and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"How did you bring them back? Did someone kill the pheasants and rabbits and give them to you?" Lu Sen found the matter increasingly strange.
Pheasants and rabbits are not easy to catch, but they taste pretty good.
How could someone possibly have caught several of them and then kindly give them to two children?
"Dad, it was a pheasant or rabbit that ran into a big rock and died. I saw it with my own eyes." Lu Zhili glanced at An Wan before using this excuse to fob off Lu Sen.
"What? He died from hitting a rock?" This was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing; it was unbelievable.
Looking at his honest fifth son, who never lies and whom he knows very well, Lu Sen was unsure whether to believe him or not.
"Yes! Dad, is this what A-Shu meant by waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump? I was so scared when I saw the pheasant and rabbit run into the rock."
Lu Zhili blinked her big eyes, her face innocent and naive, not at all like she was lying.
An Wan said that his acting skills were also very good, and she admired him.
She was almost brainwashed by him.
When Lu Sen saw his son like this, he couldn't help but believe it.
It's just that I never expected him and An Wan to be so lucky.
On my first trip up the mountain, I encountered pheasants and rabbits that had crashed into rocks and died. It was such a good thing to bring them home and eat them for free.
So Lu Sen and Yun Ping went into the kitchen to kill chickens and rabbits. Of all things, eating is the most important.
An Wan and Lu Zhili pushed Lu Jiayan into the kitchen to help, their purpose being, of course, to eat chicken and rabbit meat as soon as possible.
They also boiled a large pot of hot water for Lu Jingxing and his three brothers to bathe in, partly because they had gotten muddy from working in the fields, and partly because their clothes had gotten dirty from carrying wild boars.
Moreover, they will be taking the bus to the county high school around 3 or 4 pm this afternoon, so they need to take a good shower and change into clean clothes before going to school.
Otherwise, my classmates will laugh at me and look down on me.
You can be poor and wear cheap, low-quality clothes that can't compare to designer brands.
But it can't be dirty and smelly.
