"Who cares why she fainted, let's get her back quickly, we'll have meat to eat today." Song Tantan and Ye Moxun exchanged a knowing smile.
Shuanzi scratched his head, not caring about anything else, and immediately helped Song Tantan lift the roe deer. Ye Moxun didn't let him lift it because he had only recently recovered.
But he switched places with Song Tantan along the way. Shuanzi had been eating well for the past two months and was much stronger. Although carrying the roe deer was still a bit strenuous, the thought of having meat to eat gave him a lot of energy, and he didn't feel tired at all.
The three families were overjoyed when the roe deer was brought back. They had thought they would only be able to eat sweet potato rice and potato rice this New Year, but they never expected to have meat to eat as well. They were incredibly lucky.
When they were killing the roe deer, two other families came to help. Several children went to boil water, the old man with his two grandsons was in charge of killing it, and Song Tantan, Ye Moxun, and Shuanzi were in charge of catching the roe deer. After they carried it back, the roe deer woke up and was struggling fiercely.
Shuanzi's family kept two-thirds of the meat, and gave one-third to the other two families for their own share. The offal and skin were also given to Shuanzi's family.
Shuanzi's mother reluctantly cut out half a pound of meat, intending to save the rest for later. However, Song Tantan and Ye Moxun disagreed, insisting that meat should be eaten fresh and not left out for too long.
Song Tantan chopped off five pounds of meat with a cleaver and stewed it, determined to have a good meal today.
Shuanzi's mother was quite timid, because she always carried a big knife and knew that she was good at martial arts, so she was quite afraid of her. When she said she was going to stew all the roe deer meat at once, Shuanzi's mother didn't dare to say no, and could only feel the pain in her heart.
