After the village chief announced the decision to distribute the meat, several people in Qiaojia Village burst out with amazing potential.
The group of ten people managed to drag three big wild boars back to the village.
"Is this really for our family?"
Zhang Lan was completely stunned when she saw the wild boar in the yard.
"No doubt about it! Song Ning found the pig and Qiao Bo hunted it. No one has any objection to giving one to your family!"
The village chief patted Old Man Qiao on the shoulder with emotion and said, "Brother, your good fortune is yet to come!"
Old Man Qiao was so excited that his face flushed, and he kept inviting the village chief to stay and have a few drinks.
"Some other time! Some other time!"
The village chief waved his hand and said, "I have to go back to preside over the meat distribution. Let's drink together another day!"
"Okay! 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 sent him to the door.
“Haha…refreshing!”
"Old man, it's time to cook the meat..."
Zhang Lan excitedly began to light a fire and cook the meat.
The village chief had someone kill the wild boar and sent it over. The weather is hot now, and it is definitely impossible to finish eating such a big pig.
Every household in the village knows how to pickle meat. Once the meat is pickled, it can be eaten for a year without any problem.
"Qiao An, call your eldest sister and brother-in-law back to eat meat!"
Zhang Lan smiled happily as she looked at the two full slabs of pork piled on the table. How could she forget her married daughter while eating meat?
Every household was not wealthy these days, and there was very little oil and water in their stomachs. Except for the Chinese New Year, there were few chances to eat meat throughout the year.
This time, I have to ask everyone to satisfy their cravings!
"Okay!"
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 make a fire!"
Zhang Lan kept walking and directed Qiao Ran to work.
"I'm not going!"
Qiao Ran was not convinced and pointed at Song Ning, "Why don't you ask her to work?!"
"Everyone in the family is so busy that she has no time to rest, but she is sitting there like a Buddha, so steady!"
"She didn't do any work in the fields or in the mountains these past two days, and now she's acting like a big shot when she comes back!"
Song Ning was leisurely holding the teacup, drinking water with her feet up, shaking her head and looking very comfortable!
Sometimes she really didn't know what was wrong with Qiao Ran's brain. He kept bumping into the gun barrel, but never learned his lesson!
For the sake of that 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 can bring home such a big wild boar, you don't have to work!"
Zhang Lan snorted coldly. The village chief's words were very clear. The three wild boars were hunted because of Song Ning's hard work.
Otherwise, why don’t people from the village go up the mountain every day and 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 unhappily and asked, "Who spoils you?"
Song Ning added fuel to the fire and shrugged at Qiao Ran, which made Qiao Ran so angry that he fell backwards!
Qiao Bo came out holding a big pot and looked at Song Ning with amusement. She really knew his mother's temper!
"Mom...the water is gone!"
Song Ning shouted to Zhang Lan proudly.
"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!"
"good!"
Song Ning's smile is 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 were things he had been doing since he was a child and he was very familiar with them.
"Virtue!"
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, and if you need anything, call mom and Qiao Bo..."
Song Ning immediately smiled so hard that her teeth were showing but her eyes were not, and she happily started to eat melon seeds.
She didn't care about the melon seeds, but she cared about Qiao Ran's envious, jealous and hateful expression.
It’s great with rice!
Qiao Xin got married in the next village, which was only two or three miles away. Qiao An was a fast runner, so he quickly called his eldest sister and her family back.
When Qiao Xin's family of three was eating, Zhang Lan was sticking chopsticks into the meat.
As long as you can put your chopsticks in it, the meat is cooked through.
If you want to marinate meat well, cooking the meat is the key.
The meat should not be cooked too hard, nor too soft, it should be moderately soft and hard.
"Hey...what happened to Jianguo's face?"
The steam from 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 didn't get beaten! It's because I fell down these past two days..."
Qiao Xin sighed helplessly, "I know what happened these days. Jianguo is so unlucky!"
"I can fall down even on a flat road, and I can even drop stones 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 good looks were dragged down a bit by her sorrow.
"It's okay! I have thick skin, it's no big deal!"
Zhang Jianguo smiled naively. He had a square face and a simple and honest personality.
"Why is everything alright?"
Zhang Lan asked them to sit down quickly and took the baby from Qiao Xin's arms with loving heart.
"Be good, Yuanyuan! Grandma will take you to eat some meat..."
Zhang Lan was born to Qiao Xin and Zhang Jianguo after one year of marriage.
Although it's not a girl, both families treasure her.
The little one will also grow up, and he has inherited all the good qualities of his parents, with red lips, white teeth, and big eyes. He is so cute!
"Thank you, Grandma!"
The little guy is currently learning to speak, and his pronunciation is not very clear yet.
"Our Yuanyuan can talk now! So cute!"
Hearing Zhang Lan's praise, the little guy squinted his eyes proudly.
"Has your family moved the ancestral graves recently?"
Song Ning suddenly spoke into Zhang Lan's ear, which startled 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. A dark mist of luck was looming over Zhang Jianguo's head. If left alone, he would only be alive for the next two days.
Not only Zhang Jianguo, but even Zhang Yuan, a three-year-old little girl, had her luck entangled with black silk.
It's obvious that they want the Zhang family to be extinct!
"Tamper with the ancestral grave? No!"
Zhang Jianguo scratched his head with a smile, "Except for the Qingming Festival when I went to sweep the tomb and offer sacrifices to my ancestors, I have never been there."
"Sister-in-law... are you saying that Jianguo's recent misfortunes are all related to his ancestral grave?"
Qiao Xin looked at Song Ning in confusion. This was the first time she had heard someone speak like this.
"right!"
Song Ning looked at Qiao Xin and frowned, "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.
