Mai Sui told others that these pigs and rabbits were picked up by her.
To this end, she dug a trap and filled it with sharp branches.
Then throw the pigs and rabbits in and position them so that it looks like they fell in by themselves.
After doing all this, Mai Sui ran down the mountain to call for help.
Because with her current status, she definitely cannot carry such heavy prey by herself.
As luck would have it, as soon as Mai Sui entered the village, he met the two sons of Mai Xiangdong.
When Mai Juncai heard that his cousin had discovered a wild boar, he immediately asked his younger brother Mai Liangcai and Mai Sui to go to the mountains to guard it, to prevent it from being picked up by people from other villages.
He immediately ran to inform his father Mai Xiangdong.
According to the rules, whoever picks up the prey in the mountains owns it.
It's okay even if you didn't dig the trap.
It's the fault of the person who dug the trap for not collecting the net in time.
Now that the meat that is about to reach my mouth has been picked up by someone else, I can only blame myself for my bad luck.
Of course, you can also pick up other people's, as long as you have the luck.
.......
There are a total of 318 households in Lianhua Village, including the educated youth. All the educated youth in the educated youth site are counted as one household.
The total population is more than 2,800, less than 3,000.
When food is distributed at the end of the year, it will definitely be distributed according to the number of people recorded in the work point registration book.
But according to convention, pork like this that is picked up for free is usually divided according to households, that is, according to the 318 households.
I just weighed it, and today's wild boar weighs 380 kilograms, so each household can get about one kilogram of pork.
Because there are some inedible pig organs and pig hair that need to be removed.
If a family has fewer people, they will definitely have the advantage.
But if a family has a large number of people, the village committee may give him more pig blood or pig intestines as appropriate.
In short, absolute fairness is impossible, we can only say that it is relative fairness.
Besides, this is pie in the sky. It's good enough to have something to eat. If anyone is too fussy about it, the village committee will not tolerate it.
Mai Xiangdong watched as more and more villagers gathered around him, and quickly took out a loudspeaker from the village committee office and said to everyone:
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me."
As the team leader, Mai Xiangdong is very prestigious in the village.
As soon as he spoke, everyone immediately became quiet.
"I know everyone is very excited. Don't worry, I will find someone to kill the pig and distribute the meat to everyone.
When work gets off work at noon, each household sends one person to collect the pork.
However, I have to say something first.
This pig was picked up by Mai Sui in the mountains. If it weren’t for her, no one would have anything to eat.
So, when we divide the meat at noon, Wheat Ear will take three pounds first, and we will divide the rest equally.
In addition, these rabbits were also picked up by wheat ears.
According to village rules, the rabbit belongs to Mai Sui personally.
Don't be jealous. When you go hunting in the mountains, the village committee doesn't ask you to share the spoils.
So it is with wheat ears!
If anyone has any opinions, please raise them now."
Mai Xiangdong paused for a moment, and seeing that no one stood up to speak, he made the decision directly.
“Okay, that’s settled.
Everyone go back to work now. If you don’t work hard, you won’t have meat for lunch!
All the team leaders, keep an eye on me!"
After the rice in the fields is harvested and dried, Mai Xiangdong will go to the city to pay the public grain tax, and he cannot miss the opportunity.
After sending away the villagers who were watching the fun, Mai Xiangdong turned to Mai Sui and said:
"Mai Sui, uncle saved three pounds of the best thigh meat for you at noon. By the way, what are you going to do with this rabbit?"
Mai Xiangdong felt quite sorry when he saw that all the rabbits were dead.
If it's alive, you can keep it and eat it slowly.
It's dead now and the weather is hot, so I'm afraid it won't last long.
Mai Sui took the fattest rabbit and gave the rest to Mai Xiangdong.
"I know that the food I borrowed from Mai Hongcai may not be enough. I will pay you back the rest later."
Mai Xiangdong was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief.
"What's so good about returning a few kilograms of food? We are all family, and we should keep our differences. How can uncle want your rabbit? Take it back now!"
"No! You have to hold it!"
Mai Sui was tough, but Mai Xiangdong was even tougher and refused it resolutely.
Mai Hongcai, who was standing by, saw this and reached out to take the rabbit: "Sister, if uncle doesn't want it, forget it. We can...ah!"
Before Mai Hongcai could finish his words, he was kicked away by Mai Sui, and naturally he didn't get to touch the rabbit.
"I have the final say in this family now, so stop butting in!"
After saying that, Mai Sui stuffed the rabbit into Mai Xiangdong's hand.
Then he walked to the wall, holding the fat rabbit in his left hand and Mai Hongcai's collar in his right hand, and took the man away.
Mai Hongcai is 178 cm tall and Mai Sui is only 166 cm tall, so he couldn't stand up straight when he was lifted up, but he couldn't break free either.
That feeling was so uncomfortable.
"Sister, please be gentle, it hurts..."
After Mai Sui and the other man left, the three father and sons, Mai Xiangdong, Mai Juncai and Mai Liangcai, were left standing in the wind.
When they came to their senses, Mai Sui and Mai Hongcai had disappeared.
Mai Liangcai murmured, "Mai Sui's kick just now was so powerful that Hongcai, such a big man, actually flew out!"
Mai Juncai: "I heard from the villagers that Mai Sui beat up Uncle San and Hongcai every day at home, and I was skeptical.
After all, Mai Sui has thin arms and legs, how could he possibly be a match for Uncle San and Hongcai.
Now, I believe it!"
Mai Xiangdong touched his nose awkwardly: "Ahem...you two are the only ones who can gossip about our elders!
Your Third Uncle was deliberately giving in to Mai Sui. You know that Mai Sui is in a special situation."
"That Third Uncle is really good to Mai Sui. He gets beaten every day, but he can still endure it and not fight back, and he's not even angry."
Mai Xiangdong who knew the truth: Doesn’t he want to fight back? It’s obvious that he can’t win and there’s nothing he can do!
In the past, Mai Xiangdong had never seen Mai Sui fight with his own eyes, and he always felt that those people in the village who gossiped about them were exaggerating.
But yesterday at noon he went to persuade Mai Sui to go to the fields to work. What he was talking about suddenly turned violent, and his attitude scared him to death.
Fortunately, he ran fast, otherwise he would have been beaten together with Lao San and Hongcai.
Mai Xiangdong sighed: "Okay, stop talking about these nonsense.
Juncai, go find Butcher Zhang to kill the pig.
Liangcai, take these rabbits home and take care of them. It’s hot now, don’t let them rot.”
.......
On the other side, Mai Hongcai was carried directly back home by Mai Sui.
As soon as he got home, Mai Sui said to Mai Hongcai, "Cook the rabbit. I want to eat it now."
Although it is not time for lunch yet, Mai Sui can't wait.
She has been eating bland food these days and her mouth is almost empty. She must eat some meat to change the mood.
Mai Hongcai also wanted to eat it, but he didn’t know how to cook such a complicated and high-end dish!
His current cooking skills are limited to making stir-fried cucumbers, stir-fried potatoes, and at most scrambled eggs.
The three chickens at home were cooked by Mai Lao San.
And now Mai Lao San is not here.
Mai Sui didn't want to wait, so finally, the two of them came to Mai Xiangdong's house carrying the rabbit.
Everyone has not yet gone to work, and the only people at home are Song Xiaojuan, who is eight months pregnant, and Mai Xiangdong's four-year-old grandson Hutou.
Song Xiaojuan is a person who can't sit still. She is boiling water to prepare the rabbit that her husband has just brought back.
Although she was pregnant, her reaction was minimal, as if nothing had happened, and she was even able to go out to work.
But her parents-in-law and husband firmly disagreed, fearing accidents, so they arranged for her to take care of the tiger head at home.
The fact that Mai Sui picked up a pig has caused a sensation in the entire Lotus Village.
I guess it won’t be long before people in the neighboring villages know about it.
Of course Song Xiaojuan also heard about it.
Their family can eat meat today thanks to Wheat Ear.
So, as soon as Song Xiaojuan saw Mai Sui and his sister, she warmly welcomed them in.
