Seeing that the two of them had climbed up, Xie Yushu ignored their petty grievances and quietly walked towards the wild boar.
Just as Xie Yushu was pondering where to start when she was about two meters away from the wild boar, the boar that was rooting in the ground suddenly stopped and stared intently in Xie Yushu's direction with its two small eyes.
Then it took off charging towards Xie Yushu!
"sister!"
"sister!"
The two-meter distance was covered in the blink of an eye.
Almost the instant the wild boar charged, Xie Yushu rolled to the side to dodge its straight attack, then swung her knife sharply and slashed it. Turning around, she saw a stream of blood spurting from the boar's neck!
However, it clearly didn't hit the vital point, and instead provoked the wild boar to go berserk and charge at Xie Yushu again! At this time, Xie Yushu was leaning against a big tree. She had been running all day and was tired, hungry, and almost exhausted, so she didn't want to fight it head-on. She just waited until it rushed in front of her before quickly turning around.
With a loud bang, the tree trunk shook violently, causing Xie Yushu on the other side to stumble!
The wild boar itself was spinning around from the impact, clearly stunned!
"Sis, let me help you!"
At this moment, Xie Tianming and Xie Tianqi also jumped down from the tree, raised their pickaxes and smashed them at the wild boar!
Perhaps driven by their hunger, the two boys smashed things with great gusto, and Xie Yushu couldn't get involved. Seeing that the wild boar was also exhausted, and wanting to give the two boys a workout, Xie Yushu stopped interfering.
Once the wild boar had completely stopped moving, the three siblings dragged it back home.
When they returned, the three Liu brothers were already back. The people in the camp were excitedly peeling sheepskins and starting fires. It turned out that everyone had been busy. The small hillside had been prepared into a camp, and several piles of firewood had been stacked up!
Liu Qiang was surprised to see the three siblings dragging back a large wild boar.
"Wow! Not bad, this guy must weigh over 200 pounds!"
"Pretty much! You guys did well too, you had a great haul!"
Xie Yushu saw the two sheep and several rabbits on their side and replied.
"That's right, my third brother is an exceptional archer; he never misses a shot!"
"Xiao Jiu! Stop bragging to me! I'll beat you up!"
"Hey? Little Jiu isn't bragging! Everyone in the surrounding villages knows that the three young men of the Liu family are excellent archers!"
"That's right!"
After a long and tiring journey, everyone was finally able to eat and drink, and their mood relaxed.
The Liu brothers had hunted two sheep, and they were already skinning and roasting them! When the Xie family saw Xie Yushu and her two companions return, they all came forward to help clean up the wild boar, and soon they were roasting it too.
Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Xie Yushu was exhausted. Since she still had to grill for a while, she decided to take a nap so she could be more alert during the night. She gave them a few instructions.
"I'm going to take a nap. Don't wake me up. You guys eat as you like!"
She found a smooth stone slab to rest on! Anyway, the snakes, insects, and rodents had all gone to the edge of the pool, so it was very safe here, and Xie Yushu slept soundly!
I don't know how much time passed, but I was half asleep when Xie Tianqi shook me awake!
"Sis, the wild boar is roasted, come and eat!"
"Okay, how long have I been sleeping?"
"It's been almost an hour, sister, you should hurry up. Xie Yujiao and Uncle Xiao are so eager to devour the wild boar. We had to stop them, Uncle and I! They only managed to roast the offal and eat it first, but we can't stop them any longer!"
Xie Yushu tried her best to clear her head and quickly followed Xie Tianqi! Firstly, she knew what kind of people those two were, and secondly, she was really hungry!
The golden-brown, crispy roasted wild boar emitted an enticing aroma that made one's mouth water! But no one touched the whole pig!
"Yu Shu, come quick! You hunted this wild boar, so you can share it!"
"Father, you're wrong about that. Tianqi and Tianming were the ones who hunted the wild boar. I didn't do much!"
"We only started fighting after my sister stabbed me half to death with a knife!"
"Alright! I said you can divide it, so you can divide it! You two are big kids now, and you're acting like you're in charge!"
"Then, let's split it between us!"
"Let's divide it, but it has to be fair!"
"good!"
Xie Tianming and Xie Tianqi were entrusted with an important task and began to seriously divide the pig.
Divide the pig into four parts.
"Although the three of us sisters killed this pig, Grandpa Xiao and Uncle Xiao are my sister's husband's family, so we should give one-third to Grandpa Xiao and Uncle Xiao's family."
"Of the remaining two portions, one will be for our family, and the other for my eldest sister, okay, Dad?"
"Can!"
No one in the Xie family had any objections.
"Why should we only get one-third? Xie Yushu is a daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, so this pig should be half for the Xie family and half for the Xiao family! Dad, don't you think that makes sense?" Xie Yujiao asked Old Master Xiao indignantly.
Old Master Xiao had long wanted to divide the spoils, but the Xie family's son was firmly stopping him, so he didn't want to cause a scene. Hearing this, he rubbed his hands together and echoed...
"What the fourth son's wife said makes sense!"
"My dear in-laws, look, Yu Shu is now married into our family; she's part of the Xiao family. Since we both hunted this pig together, it should be split 50/50 between us! Don't you agree?"
After Old Man Xiao finished speaking, Xie Baotian and the others were stunned! No one expected that Old Man Xiao could be so shameless. The three children risked their lives to get this food, and they hadn't done anything. How could he have the nerve to so confidently tell them to decide how to distribute the food for them!
The Xie family was in a dilemma. If it were just Xie Yujiao being unreasonable, they wouldn't care. But Old Man Xiao was Xie Yushu's father-in-law. If they offended him, they were afraid that Xie Yushu would have a hard time in the Xiao family. After a moment of silence, Xie Baotian finally agreed.
Xie Baotian agreed, and naturally the rest of the Xie family wouldn't object. Seeing Old Man Xiao's satisfied smile and Xie Yujiao's smug yet provocative gaze, Xie Yushu smiled coldly.
