Isn't this just because they're afraid of spreading complaints and not getting any meat in the future? These people are stupid. They didn't even kill a wild boar last time. They were just lucky the first time. Do they think they'll be that lucky every time?
Before Chen Lao Er could even speak, those people, still not done, brought up the matter of Yin Shi making a stove again.
"To be honest, this Yin family member isn't a bad person."
"Chen Lao Er, your sister-in-law is cooking, why didn't you go and help?"
One sentence left Chen Lao Er speechless, unable to find a reason for the question.
Saying he doesn't want to help? That's a problem with his character; he won't even help his sister-in-law who's single-handedly managing the household.
But the truth is even more unspeakable. If people find out that the Yin family had never even contacted him, it would be even more shameful. He would probably never be able to go out again, and people would gossip about him behind his back.
In this day and age, apart from things that cannot be made with iron, most items, such as beds, tables, stoves, and houses, are made by each household themselves. If there are many men in the family and things are not urgent, the whole family will work together to make them slowly.
If there are not many men in the family, or if, like Yin Lan, the men in the family are not at home, then relatives usually help with the cooking.
An elderly couple usually has several sons, and if they have more sons, then they have many men.
A house, a family, and in half a month or a month, it's all taken care of.
If there aren't enough men, ask acquaintances for help. They can provide some eggs and meat, and a few days' worth of food. That should be enough, as all the ingredients are sourced from the mountains; whatever you need is available.
Therefore, it's strange that someone like the Yin family would seek help from outsiders instead of the Chen family; people would gossip about it behind their backs.
