Chapter 7 Li Qiuju steals the wild boar



The village chief touched her little head, followed Tian Hengyuan to see the wild boar, and could not hide his joy, and hurriedly called his son.

"Huzi, go call your brother Fugui over and have him kill the wild boar. Sell it in the market tomorrow morning and exchange it for some food."

Hu Zi went to call for help.

Inside the house, the village chief and Tian Hengyuan were discussing selling pigs.

Tian Chengcheng and Fu Xinhan sat next to each other, and Tian Chengcheng nodded her little head.

"Fubao--" Fu Xinhan suddenly exclaimed and reached out to grab Tian Chengcheng.

But he was still a step too slow, and Tian Chengcheng fell headfirst onto the kang.

Everyone was startled, and Tian Hengyuan quickly picked her up and asked, "Fubao, what happened?"

"Touch your forehead. Do you have a fever?" The old lady saw that Tian Chengcheng's face was red.

"It's so hot!" Tian Hengyuan tried it and it was scorching hot.

"Hurry, let her lie down. Go get a wet towel to cool her down first, then go get Fuhua over."

Tian Fuhua is the barefoot doctor in the village.

Tian Hengyuan did as he was told. The old lady and the others stayed with Tian Chengcheng, and he hurried to call for help.

Before the pigs were killed, the news that Fubao in the village had caught a wild boar and was going to sell it for food to help everyone get through the difficult times had spread throughout the village.

As soon as Tian Hengyuan appeared, he was surrounded by villagers.

"Xiao Si, did Fubao really catch the wild boar?" No one believed it at all.

Wild boar! If you encounter one, you'll die.

Can a little kid like Fubao be caught?

"It's true, but the wild boar hasn't been killed yet. We can't exchange it for food until tomorrow. Aunts, please make way. Fubao has a high fever. We need to let Brother Fuhua take a look at him right away."

"Ah? Fever? He must have been frightened by the wild boar. Such a small child is really pitiful. Hurry and call Fuhua."

Soon, Fuhua followed Tian Hengyuan to the Tian family's old house.

A group of villagers followed behind, one wanted to see the wild boar, and the other was to care about Tian Chengcheng.

Tian Fuhua first took Tian Chengcheng's temperature, which was almost 40 degrees. He immediately gave her a small injection, and her fever subsided in less than half an hour.

But Tian Chengcheng was still weak all over.

"The baby was hungry, and she got caught in the rain and was frightened. Fortunately, her fever has gone down. Do you have any eggs? Make some to nourish her."

"Okay." Tian Hengyuan immediately found an egg.

Beat the eggs in a white porcelain teacup, pour boiling hot water into it, and it will be half a cup of egg soup. Add a little salt and hand it to Tian Chengcheng.

"Fubao, be good and drink it."

Tian Chengcheng didn't know where this egg came from, but she knew it must be very precious.

"Uncle, please help me get a bowl." Tian Chengcheng said.

Tian Hengyuan immediately went to get a big bowl for her.

Tian Chengcheng poured half of the egg soup into the bowl and pushed it to the old lady, "Grandma, you drink it."

"Grandma doesn't drink it, so Fubao drinks it. He will be cured after drinking it." The old lady looked at Tian Chengcheng with tears in her eyes.

What a sensible child!

"If grandma doesn't drink it, I won't drink it either." Tian Chengcheng was very persistent.

Judging from the bare appearance of this house, there are probably only a few eggs in it.

As a child, she recovers quickly, but as an old lady, she needs to improve her nutrition.

"Sister-in-law, just drink it because it shows the child's filial piety. Get well soon so that you can take care of the child." said the village chief.

The old lady then picked up the bowl and drank the egg soup.

Tian Chengcheng smiled, revealing a pair of cute dimples. She took the bowl, poured a little, and handed it to Tian Hengyuan, "Uncle."

"I don't want to drink, Fubao, be good and drink it quickly."

Tian Chengcheng didn't say anything, just held up the bowl, looking at Tian Hengyuan with her big, grape-like eyes shining brightly.

Tian Hengyuan couldn't resist and had to take it and drink it.

Tian Chengcheng was finally satisfied. She drank half of the jar and pushed the rest to Fu Xinhan. "I can't finish it. Give it to you."

Fu Xinhan didn't hesitate and drank the rest silently.

Just now, when Tian Hengyuan went to get the eggs, he saw that this was the last egg in their family.

He silently kept it in mind, thinking that when he returned, he would go to the mountain to look for pheasant eggs to see if he could pick them up.

Soon, Hu Zi came with Tian Fugui.

He went out to slaughter pigs for someone. As soon as he entered the village, he heard that a wild boar had been caught, so he came over with his tools.

"Oh, such a big wild boar, twice as big as the one I just killed." Tian Fugui looked at the wild boar and was stunned when he saw the marks on its head from being chiseled by a rock. "This must have been caused by a rock. Fubao is really amazing."

Tian Chengcheng leaned against the window frame and said in a crisp voice, "I was scared, so I brought rocks and kept throwing them."

"Good boy, luckily there is no bleeding. If the bloody smell spread, it would be troublesome. Don't go there alone next time." Tian Fugui took a breath.

Everyone around sighed after hearing this.

"Fubao is such a blessed child."

Tian Fugui was very skilled and finished the job in less than half an hour, peeling off the pig skin completely.

The meat was packed in two large basins, and the offal and pig heads also needed to be processed. Tian Fugui's wife brought people to help. After processing the offal and pig heads, they were put directly into the pot to cook. Only when they were cooked could they be sold at a good price.

The whole village gathered around. The adults were fine, but the children were drooling with greed.

The village chief puffed on his pipe and went into the house.

"Sister-in-law, Fubao, the whole village hasn't seen fishy things for a long time. How about giving some of that basin of pig's blood to every household in the village?"

He didn't dare to think about pork, after all, he had to exchange it for food.

Pig blood is cheap, but it can't be exchanged for much food.

"Okay, you decide." said the old lady.

The village chief looked at Tian Chengcheng, who showed her small white teeth, "Okay, I want to eat pig blood too. Leave a piece for Brother Han."

"Okay." The village chief went out with a happy look on his face.

The pig's blood has been boiled. The village chief personally supervised the process and gave each person a piece of half a pound, one piece per family.

Li Qiuju was not popular to begin with, and she had just kicked Tian Chengcheng out of the house, so everyone unanimously did not tell her about Tian Chengcheng catching the wild boar.

When she got the news and rushed to the Tian family's old house, her eyes instantly turned red when she saw the scene in front of her.

"Damn it! You're trying to kill me! Put it down! This is my wild boar!"

Li Qiuju screamed at the top of her lungs and rushed forward to snatch it.

Although she is usually tough and no one dares to mess with her, this time is different.

Everyone was scared of being hungry. Even though it was only half a pound of pig's blood, it might affect the lives of the whole family!

How could it be given to Li Qiuju?

And it's not hers!

"Li Qiuju, if you want it, go and queue up. Don't go crazy here!" Aunt Wang dodged her and glared at her fiercely.

"You idiot, you dare to steal my things! I'll beat you to death!"

Although Li Qiuju is tough, she is not completely stupid.

What she is best at is killing the chicken to scare the monkey, picking the weak persimmon to squeeze, making others scared when they see her and want to avoid her.

Aunt Wang, who gave birth to three daughters and was not liked by her husband and her husband, was one of the unlucky people she loved to bully the most.

Seeing Aunt Wang resisting, Li Qiuju rushed forward with gritted teeth and grabbed her hair, "You stupid pig, I'm going to beat you to death."
