Chapter 9: A big hit



When Song Xiaojuan heard that Mai Sui wanted her to help make spicy rabbit cubes, she agreed without hesitation.

She also wanted to teach Mai Sui the method, which can also be considered a skill.

In Song Xiaojuan's opinion, after a woman gets married, she has to revolve around the stove.

If you can’t cook, you will definitely be disliked by your in-laws, and you may even not be able to get married.

But Mai Sui was not interested and said it was too troublesome.

As a human being, you should never endure hardship without any effort.

Leave the opportunity to those who need it more.

So Mai Sui called Mai Hongcai over.

"You study hard here and pay attention. Next time we catch the rabbit, it will be you who will do it."

"Got it, sis."

Song Xiaojuan was stunned because she had never seen a man cooking.

In the past, when I was at my mother’s house, my mother and her sisters were responsible for cooking.

Now that she is at her husband's house, her mother-in-law, sister-in-law and she are responsible for cooking.

My father-in-law and husband don't care.

"Second cousin, let's start. You have to teach me carefully. If I don't learn it, my sister will beat me."

"...Oh ok."

Song Xiaojuan’s cooking skills are quite good, and the rabbit she cooks is very tasty and fragrant.

The wheat ear tasted it and was very satisfied.

His cooking skills are many times better than those of Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai.

Thinking of this, Mai Sui glared at Mai Hongcai with disgust.

Then, he left half for Song Xiaojuan as tuition and took the rest away.

They are all relatives, so Song Xiaojuan doesn't feel comfortable collecting tuition fees. If her father-in-law finds out, he will definitely blame her.

But she couldn't overcome Mai Sui's persistence (dominance).

Song Xiaojuan has been married to Mai Liangcai for two years, so naturally she has dealt with Mai Sui.

But not much, after all, we don’t live under the same roof.

She didn't notice anything unusual about the wheat ears.

Because the wheat ears used to be dull and rarely took the initiative to interact with others.

Now Mai Sui is aloof and disdains to interact with others.

The outward manifestation is that they don’t like to talk much.

In Song Xiaojuan's opinion, they are all the same.

However, this contact today gave her a new understanding of wheat ears.

That means being extremely generous!

Look at this bowl of rabbit meat and the string of rabbits outside. It’s really generous to give away so much meat!

If it were her, she would definitely be reluctant.

.......

After Mai Sui and Mai Hongcai returned home, they had a delicious meal.

They ate up the whole bowl of rabbit meat with the fragrant white rice, leaving no food for Mai Lao San.

Mai Sui was completely unaware of this, and Mai Hongcai forgot about it because it was so delicious.

After Mai Hongcai finished eating, he remembered that his father had not eaten yet.

Mai Sui didn't care: "It's okay, I'll catch it tomorrow.

Besides, we still have to share the pork later, right? Let’s have a good meal tonight!”

Although Mai Hongcai is not a frugal person.

However, isn’t it a bit too extravagant to eat meat again at night after having just eaten meat at noon?

He had never dared to imagine such a life before!

Mai Sui has now found a way to a happy life. He changed his depressed state yesterday and said arrogantly:

"It's no big deal. As long as you behave, I promise to make sure you have everything you want. Otherwise, I'll send you to see Grandma!"

Mai Hongcai automatically filtered out the last threat and repeatedly expressed his loyalty:

"I'm obedient! Sister, I will listen to you from now on. As long as I can eat meat, you can tell me to do anything!"

Indeed, if you want cattle and horses to run fast, you must first feed them.

Mai Hongcai is much more sincere when he says these words now than before.

Seeing that it was getting late, Mai Sui prepared to go to the village committee to get some meat and digest his food at the same time.

I just ate a lot, so it’s not a good idea to take a nap right away.

Mai Hongcai naturally followed.

Although Mai Xiangdong said that only one person from each household was needed, no one could miss such a lively event.

As soon as the bell rang for the end of work at noon, everyone rushed to the village committee like a swarm of bees.

The village committee is a bungalow with blue bricks and red tiles. It used to be a landlord’s home. Later, when the landlords were overthrown, it was turned into the village committee.

There is a large square in front of the house that can accommodate thousands of people.

Every time the village distributed meat and grain, as well as assigned work in the morning, it was done in this square.

If someone has a wedding or funeral and wants to invite the whole village to a banquet, they can also set up the banquet here.

Zhang, the butcher in the village, chopped some bamboos, made a simple rack, and hung the meat on it.

Each piece of meat weighs about one pound, just enough for one family.

For many people, the last time they ate meat was during the Chinese New Year. Seeing this scene now is definitely a double blow to the vision and the soul!

"That's a lot of meat! If all of this were from my house, it would take me a long time to finish it!"

"Mai Sui is so lucky. I used to go to the mountains often, but how come I never found a pig?"

"It's called a fool's luck. You can't compare with them. You'd better go to work honestly."

"I heard that Mai Sui also picked up a lot of rabbits. There are only three people in her family. Can she eat all the meat?"

"That's right. The weather is so hot, we don't want them to go bad. We might as well take them out and share them among us."

"Wang Cuihua, you have the nerve to say that. The abacus beads are about to fall on my face."

"Let me tell you what's wrong. Besides, this is the truth. I don't believe you don't crave that rabbit meat."

"I may be greedy, but I won't bully a fool."

"Luo Jinfeng, who is bullying a fool?"

"Whoever tells it will know!"

The two were about to quarrel, when suddenly someone in the crowd shouted:

"Stop talking! Mai Sui and Mai Hongcai are here. Be careful they tell Mai Lao San."

With Mai Lao San's reckless personality, if he knew someone was trying to extort meat from his family, he would get up in the middle of the night and tear off the roof of the person's house.

Wang Cuihua curled her lips and finally did not mention the matter of dividing the rabbits again.

She didn't even think about it. There were only eight rabbits, and there were so many people in the village. Even if she divided them, she wouldn't get much.

Besides, even if Mai Laosan is not here, there is still Mai Xiangdong.

As the captain of the team, he couldn't just watch his niece being bullied.

Mai Xiangdong was organizing the villagers to line up in front at the moment. When he saw Mai Sui coming, he immediately waved to her to come over.

The villagers in front also consciously made way.

Most of the villagers in Lianhua Village are still very simple and honest. This pig was picked up by Mai Sui, so it is reasonable for her to choose first.

However, before the meat was officially distributed, Captain Mai Xiangdong would definitely have to say a few words.

He asked Mai Sui to stand on the podium with him, holding the loudspeaker in his right hand and preparing to speak.

Seeing this, Mai Hongcai quickly climbed up and stood side by side with his sister Mai Sui.

He even deliberately puffed out his chest and looked smug, as if he had picked up the pig.

Mai Xiangdong glanced at his nephew with disdain, but ultimately did not chase him away.

Next, Mai Xiangdong boasted about Mai Sui's "great achievements".

And praised her for ten minutes.

As expected of the team leader, he has great eloquence and not a single word he said was repeated.

Mai Xiangdong's move was also to make the villagers remember Mai Sui's good points and stop always blaming her for not working.

I have to say, Mai Xiangdong is almost like a biological father to me.

Fortunately, Mai Sui is someone who has experienced big scenes, otherwise he would definitely be embarrassed.

In terms of thickness of skin, Mai Sui is not as shameless as Mai Hongcai.

He was very excited, as if someone was praising him, and he stole the show on the stage.

Finally, Mai Hongcai had to carry the three pounds of meat he was allocated and walk around the village.

He was showing off in front, and behind him was a long line of friends watching the fun, and each of them was full of energy.

Mai Sui had no choice but to follow him and go home first.
