After the village chief announced the decision to distribute the meat, several people in Qiaojia Village burst out with amazing potential.
There were ten of them in total, but they managed to drag three big wild boars back to the village.
"Is this really for our family?"
Zhang Lan was stunned when she saw the wild boar in the yard.
"No doubt about it! The pig was found by Song Ning and hunted by Qiao Bo. No one has any objection to giving one to your family!"
The village chief patted Old Man Qiao's shoulder with emotion and said, "Brother, your blessings are all behind you!"
Old man Qiao's face flushed with excitement, and he kept inviting the village chief to stay and have a few drinks.
"Some other day! Some other day!"
The village chief waved his hand and said, "I have to go back and preside over the meat distribution. Let's drink together another day!"
"Tsu! It's a deal!"
Old Man Qiao also knew that the village chief had a lot of things to do, so he followed him closely and accompanied him to the door.
“Haha…so refreshing!”
"Old man, it's time to cook the meat..."
Zhang Lan excitedly started to light a fire and cook the meat.
The village chief had someone kill the wild boar and sent it here. It's hot now, and there's no way we can finish eating such a big pig.
Every household in the village knows how to pickle meat. After the meat is pickled, it is no problem to eat a piece of it.
"Qiao An, call your eldest sister and brother-in-law back to eat meat!"
Zhang Lan looked at the two full pork shanks piled on the table with a smile. How could she forget her married daughter while eating meat?
The families in this area are not rich and have very little oil in their stomachs. Except for feasting, the children hardly have the chance to eat meat.
This time I want to ask everyone to come and satisfy their cravings!
"Hey!"
Qiao An agreed readily. He hadn't seen his elder sister for a long time and missed her very much!
"Qiao Ran, go pick up some firewood and start a fire!"
Zhang Lan kept walking and directed Qiao Ran to work.
"I'm not going!"
Qiao Ran pointed at Song Ning unconvincedly, "Why don't you ask her to work?!"
"Everyone in the family is so busy, but she's sitting there like a Buddha, so steady!"
"She went up the mountain these past two days and didn't do any work in the fields or at home. Now she comes back and acts like a big shot!"
Song Ning held the teacup leisurely, tiptoed to drink water, and shook her head comfortably!
Sometimes she really didn't know what was wrong with Qiao Ran's brain. He kept bumping into the gun barrel, but he never learned his lesson!
Considering the big wild boar, not only will Zhang Lan not say anything to her, she will also stand on her side. Do you believe it?
"Humph! If you could bring home such a big wild boar, you wouldn't have to work!"
Zhang Lan snorted coldly. The village chief's words were very clear. It was all thanks to Song Ning that the three wild boars were hunted.
Otherwise, why do people in the village go up the mountain every day and never hunt anything?
Just one trip to Song Ning Mountain and you can hunt three wild boars?!
That’s all blessing!
"If you want to eat meat, work! If you don't work, you won't get any meat!"
Zhang Lan waved her hands indifferently and said, "Who spoils you?"
Song Ning added fuel to the fire by shrugged at Qiao Ran, which only made Qiao Ran so angry that he fell backwards!
Qiao Bo came out carrying a big pot and looked at Song Ning with a smile. She actually knew his mother's temper!
"Mom... the water's gone!"
Song Ning shouted triumphantly to Zhang Lan.
"Here it comes! Mommy will pour you some..."
Zhang Lan came out in a hurry, carrying a kettle.
"Don't drink so much water... Mom is really good at stewing meat, so eat more later!"
"T!"
Song Ning's smile was so sweet.
Zhang Lan felt even happier when she saw her smiling face!
They can finally marry this daughter-in-law!
"Qiao Bo, help your mother clean the pot and light the fire first. I'll go get a pot of wine from Uncle Liu..."
Old man Qiao happily walked out of the door with a pack of cigarettes in his hand.
Qiao Bo responded and quickly cleaned the pot, boiled water and cooked the meat.
These are things he has been doing since he was a child and are very familiar to him.
"De-qi!"
Zhang Lan cursed with a smile, and for the first time ever, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds for Song Ning.
"Just eat first. If you need anything, call mom and Qiao Bo..."
Song Ning immediately smiled so hard that her teeth were showing and she happily started to crack melon seeds.
She didn't care about the melon seeds, but she cared about Qiao Ran's envious and jealous expression.
It goes well with rice!
Qiao Xin married in the next village, which was only two or three miles away. Qiao An was a quick runner and soon called her eldest sister and her family back.
When Qiao Xin and her family of three arrived, Zhang Lan was using chopsticks to poke the meat.
As long as you can put your chopsticks in it, the meat is cooked through.
If you want to marinate pork, cooking the meat is the key.
The meat should not be cooked too hard, and of course not too soft either, it should be moderately soft and hard.
"Hey...what happened to Jianguo's face?"
The steam in the pot made it difficult for Zhang Lan to see clearly. Only after she took a few steps forward could she see clearly.
"Why are your face and nose bruised? Did someone beat you up?"
Zhang Jianguo's face and arms were covered with bruises, and he walked with a limp on his right leg.
"I wasn't beaten! I fell down these past two days..."
Qiao Xin sighed helplessly, "I know what happened these past few days. Jianguo has been really unlucky!"
"I can fall even on a flat road, and even bite a stone while eating, which can break my teeth..."
"Look, in just three miles, Jianguo fell seven or eight times..."
Qiao Xin's face was full of sorrow, and her beauty was dragged down a bit by her sorrow.
"It's okay! I have thick skin, it's nothing serious!"
Zhang Jianguo smiled naively. He had a square face and a simple and honest personality.
"Why are you okay?"
Zhang Lan asked them to sit down quickly and took the baby from Qiao Xin's arms with heartache.
"Be good, Yuanyuan! Grandma will take you to eat some meat..."
Zhang Lan was born after Qiao Xin and Zhang Jianguo had been married for five years, and it was not easy for them to give birth to their child.
Although she is a girl, she is the treasure of both families.
The little guy will also grow up, and he has inherited all the advantages of his father, with red lips, white teeth, big eyes, and is very cute!
"Thank you, Sisi Niangniang..."
The little guy is learning to speak recently, and his pronunciation is not very clear yet.
"Our Yuanyuan can talk now! So cute!"
Hearing Zhang Lan's praise, the little guy narrowed his eyes proudly.
"Has your family disturbed the ancestral graves recently?"
Song Ning suddenly spoke into Zhang Lan's ear, which scared Zhang Lan.
"Does this have anything to do with disturbing the ancestral graves?"
Zhang Lan patted her chest and looked at Song Ning curiously.
“It’s a big deal!”
Song Ning's face was serious. The black mist of luck above Zhang Jianguo's head was obvious. If left alone, he would only have two days to live.
Not only Zhang Jianguo, but even the three-year-old girl Zhang Yuan had her luck wrapped in black silk.
It is obvious that the Zhang family is going to be extinct!
"Tampering with the ancestral grave? No!"
Zhang Jianguo scratched his head cheerfully, "Except for the Qingming Festival when I went to sweep the tomb and pay homage to my ancestors, I have never been there before."
"Sister-in-law...are you saying that all the bad luck Jianguo has encountered recently is related to the ancestral tomb?"
Qiao Xin looked at Song Ning in confusion. This was the first time she had heard such words.
"right!"
Song Ning looked at Qiao Xin and frowned tightly, "Did you have a miscarriage a few days ago?"
"Is the lochia on your body still not clean?"
Qiao Xin's face suddenly changed and tears immediately rolled down her cheeks.
