After Fang Yuan looked at it for a long time, he felt that the house looked more and more familiar. After a moment, he slapped his thigh and said, "Isn't this Uncle Dalin's house?"
Fang Xiaoxiao also nodded, "Uncle Dalin went to Beijing to visit his daughter. Before he left, he asked me to clean the house and feed the dog for him." Thinking of this, Fang Xiaoxiao became anxious, "No, Sister Shen, we have to leave quickly. Before he left, Uncle Dalin told me that there is a wild boar on the mountain to the east. He was almost gored to death by the wild boar when he was hunting with the villagers last time. The wild boar likes to move around at night. Maybe we will meet it!"
The wild boar's body is covered with thorns. If a person encounters it and cannot run away and is hit, he will die.
But Shen Qingqiu not only did not run away, but licked his tongue instead - pure natural wild boar, which was rare even in the capital. The nobles in the capital still thought the meat of wild boar was smelly, but Shen Qingqiu knew how delicious this natural game tasted after being processed.
As she spoke, she took her bow and arrow and prepared to go out.
Fang Yuan hurriedly asked, "Are you going to hunt wild boars?"
"Any questions?"
Of course there is a problem! Wild boars are not human beings. Even a dozen grown men may not be able to defeat a wild boar. Didn’t you see that Uncle Dalin and the hunters in the village were almost gored to death by wild boars? "No, this is too dangerous, Miss Shen!"
Shen Qingqiu listened impatiently, "It's not dangerous. If you are afraid, just wait for me where you are. I am going to hunt a wild boar to eat today."
Fang Yuan and Fang Xiaoxiao could not stop her, and soon Shen Qingqiu led the hunter's dog to look for wild boars. But she did not expect that the brother and sister who were terrified of wild boars would follow her.
Shen Qingqiu said: "Aren't you afraid? What are you doing here?"
Fang Yuan and Fang Xiaoxiao each held a stick in their hands, "Sister Shen, you are our savior, so of course we two brothers have to protect you!"
She saw sincerity in the common people in the small villages in the countryside, which was not necessarily seen in the nobles in the capital. Shen Qingqiu curled her lips and waved at the two of them. Fang Xiaoxiao received her signal and handed over the stick in her hand.
Shen Qingqiu took it, raised his hand and broke it into two pieces.
Then he looked at the stunned brother and sister and said, "Don't worry. Do you think the wild boar can be my opponent?"
Shen Qingqiu showed off his skills, so naturally the two of them had nothing to worry about. Fang Xiaoxiao even looked forward to the wild boar dinner in the evening. Seeing her brother constantly moving forward, she pulled him back: "Why are you here if you are afraid of wild boars? Hurry and hide!"
Don't delay her from watching Sister Shen beat the pig! Fang Yuan insisted, "No, I'm your brother, I have to protect you."
"Don't you know who is protecting whom?" Fang Xiaoxiao muttered to herself, and then looked at Fang Yuan who was obviously afraid but still holding the big stick and walking in front of her. She also knew that although her brother didn't say it usually, he cared about her the most.
“Shh!” Shen Qingqiu had already heard the sound, and hurriedly shushed them, telling them to shut up.
The two of them quickly covered their mouths when they heard this.
At this moment, a wild boar covered with thorns rushed out. Shen Qingqiu raised his hand and shot an arrow, then let go of Gousheng.
A hunting dog has the sharpest nose, and the wild boar was injured, so it soon rushed towards a place like crazy. Shen Qingqiu ran after the dog. Fang Yuan and Fang Xiaoxiao, who had said they wanted to protect Shen Qingqiu, ran over breathlessly, but when they arrived, there was only the wild boar left on the ground, which was also panting like him.
There was also Shen Qingqiu, who was sitting on the wild boar's belly, his face stained with blood.
Fang Yuan and Fang Xiaoxiao were both stunned, but saw Shen Qingqiu jump down lightly, "You go back and call for help." It would be impossible for the three of them to move such a wild boar.
Fang Yuan nodded. No matter what, there was a wild boar to eat today. They definitely couldn't carry such a big wild boar back, and it would take some effort to ask people to do it. Shen Qingqiu also specifically told the two of them, "Don't say that I hunted this wild boar, just say that I picked it up on the road."
After all, the spy in her father's military camp has not been found yet. Now she is recuperating here, and the situation should not be known to outsiders.
So when Fang Yuan returned home, he just said, "Sister, I found a wild boar. Ask the village chief to find someone to bring it back."
"Killed the wild boar. Oh, oh, good." Liu Ye'er wiped her hands, "I'll go right away."
When they reacted, “What, we found a wild boar?!
For the villagers, the probability of hunting wild boars and being killed by wild boars is the same. When the village chief learned that Fang Xiaoxiao and his sister had picked up a knocked-out wild boar when they went up the mountain, his first reaction was disbelief. But Liu Ye'er was not a lying woman. She said that the wild boar was already lying on the mountain in the east, waiting for them to pick it up.
Some people didn't believe it, especially Lin Meihua and those who were close to her. "How is it possible? She's just a little girl. She's so unlucky that her father died. How could she pick up a wild boar? She must be lying. I don't believe it."
She didn't believe that anyone would believe her. "If you don't want to go, forget it. If you don't get a share of the pork later, don't say anything."
Lin Meihua curled her lips in disdain.
The other villagers ignored her cold words and ran towards the mountain one by one. According to the rule in the village, if you hunt something like a wild boar, you cannot eat it all by yourself. After all, such a big thing is destined to be impossible for one person to bring back even if he is lucky enough to hunt it, so everyone should share the spoils.
"Everyone is getting angry when they see the meat." Lin Meihua spat and went home. But as soon as she entered the house, she was scolded by Old Lady Fang, "You stinky woman, why are you whining outside when you're not cooking? Can't you see that Xiaobao is hungry? Why did you marry such a lazy thing like you?!"
Before the family split, all these were done by Liu Ye'er, but now naturally all fell on Lin Meihua's head. However, Lin Meihua was much sweeter than Liu Ye'er, "Aren't you going to cook? Look, your eldest daughter-in-law is making trouble again. I heard that she picked up a wild boar, and the villagers were deceived by her. They will scold her to death when she comes back later." When Mrs. Fang heard that they were not good, she glared at Lin Meihua again, "I told you not to pick up that girl and bring her back. You didn't stop me!"
If that girl was not rescued, Fang Xiaoxiao and Liu Ye'er, mother and daughter, would still be the same as before.
Du wanted Lin Meihua. If she hadn't insisted on marrying Fang Xiaoxiao to a eunuch, maybe the mother would have been able to bear it. Wouldn't Fang Yuan, a young man of his age, earn much more money in his lifetime than Fang Xiaoxiao's fifty taels of money from selling her body? Old Lady Fang had completely forgotten how anxious she was to settle the marriage when she heard the matchmaker mention the fifty taels of betrothal gift.
"Mother-in-law, why are you so anxious? Although we have separated the family, the marriage has been decided. Don't forget that the marriage certificate was written by my sister-in-law," Lin Meihua said proudly. "We have taken the fifty taels of silver, and it will not be our responsibility when they pick up the bride."
When Old Lady Fang heard this, she understood what Lin Meihua meant. "You deserve it. That little bitch made you want to split up the family."
——
At this moment, Fang Xiaoxiao and the other two were asking people to carry the wild boar back on a stretcher like they were fighting heroes.
Shen Qingqiu was unwilling, but Fang Xiaoxiao and her brother didn't think so.
Especially Fang Xiaoxiao, she felt that this was a bit overbearing, and was reluctant at first, but the village chief insisted that they were lucky to be able to pick up a wild boar. In the past five or six years, no one has hunted wild boars like them. In the past, some people listened to Lin Meihua and thought that Fang Xiaoxiao's family was unlucky. Fang Xiaoxiao even killed her father, so she was a tough person.
But now no one thinks so. If Fang Xiaoxiao has a bad fate, then who else has a good fate? In the evening, Fangjia Village was covered with a faint glow.
"This is a blessing from the King of Hell. This girl from the Fang family will have good fortune in the future. Look, she caught a wild boar right after the family was divided."
"This is God's protection. Lin Meihua will definitely be punished for bullying her in the past."
"Then we have to stay away from Lin Meihua."
Along the way, Shen Qingqiu asked for the boar to be carried back to the entrance of the village. The village chief quickly called over an expert butcher, who dismembered the huge wild boar in three strokes. Shen Qingqiu was asked to take the two best hind legs, as well as the remaining fifty or sixty kilograms of pork body meat. After all, only people from her village could eat wild boar meat, so she should get the largest share, and the others had no objections.
Everyone went home and brought their own bowl or large lotus leaf to receive the pork and blood.
When Lin Meihua and Old Lady Fang saw the villagers coming back with a bowl of still hot pig's blood, they realized that there was really wild boar meat to be shared. They immediately picked up their shoes and ran to share the pork. However, by now the pork had almost been shared, so the two of them had to go get the pork and pig's blood.
"This belongs to someone else's younger family," said the village chief.
Xiaodian is the village butcher, who inherited his father's business. He is only sixteen years old this year. Although he did not help to lift the wild boar, he naturally got a share of the meat. Lin Meihua didn't care and held the meat in her arms. Old Lady Fang said, "Why don't the villagers give us a share? Do they look down on me, the head of the family, or my grandson, the scholar?" Ever since her grandson passed the examination to become a scholar, Old Lady Fang has been complaining.
"Even if you are a prince, you didn't come to help today, so why do you get a share of the pork?" Xiaodian on the side was very angry.
"Even after the family division, Liu Ye'er has to recognize me as her mother-in-law, and Shen Qingqiu has to recognize me as his grandmother. Why can't we share the things that our family hunts?"
Xiaodian couldn't win the argument with her and was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. He couldn't do anything about it, so the village chief had to give Xiaodian some of his own meat, and the matter was finally over.
At this moment, Fang Xiaoxiao's family was about to start cooking, so Liu Yeer went out to borrow seasoning.
Shen Qingqiu went into the room. The man was still unconscious. She lowered her head and looked at the unconscious man. Her eyes fell on the man's sword. As soon as her hand touched it, she asked someone to hold his wrist, "Girl, what are you doing?" The unconscious man had woken up.
Situ An looked coldly at the woman in front of him.
Shen Qingqiu also sneered, "Situ family emblem, who are you?"
