Chapter 88 Family
"Uncles, I have a favor to ask you." Yi Ke said.
"Ziyi's wife, if you have any problem, just tell us and we will definitely help." Hu Haohan asked and looked up at Yike.
"I found a group of cows today and I would like to ask uncles to help me get them back. Can you guys do that?" Yike thought of those cows, because he couldn't get them back without help, so isn't this ready-made manpower delivered to his doorstep?
Everyone:? ? ? …
"Ziyi's wife, you were talking about cow, right? Did we hear it right?" Hu Haohan looked at the people around him and found that they all had the same expression of disbelief as him, so he asked.
"Yes, there are so many cows. If it was just one cow, I would have brought it back myself." She was quite confident. If it was really a cow, she would definitely have brought it back.
If the cow is disobedient and refuses to come, then give it a beating. If it still refuses, then give it two or three beatings... In short, there is no cow that cannot be tamed after one beating.
Now everyone really understood that what they discovered was a group of cows, not that they were hallucinating.
"It's not easy to deal with a group of cows, but it's easy to deal with just one cow. Just dig a hole and lure it over." said Chen Shengli.
"No problem. We dig traps on the road where the cows pass. One cow will definitely fall into it. After the other cows have passed, we will tie up the cow in the trap and carry it back." Li Youcai said confidently.
"No, that won't work. I mean to get them all back." Yike quickly denied it. She was kidding. She still knew that if she alerted the enemy, he would run away. What if the cows run away? There are so many cows and the forest is so big, it will be difficult to find them if they run away. "Yike, we can't get them all back. Your uncles don't have that ability. You don't know that cows can run. They are very fast. We can't catch up with them. Moreover, cows are big and strong. It takes everyone's strength to knock down a cow. If we meet a group of cows, we have to run for our lives. We can die if we are hit by a cow's head. You may not know that even an elephant can only avoid a group of cows. Lions and tigers dare not confront cows head-on." Li Youcai thought Yike didn't understand how powerful cows are. She thought cows are easy to catch because they walk slowly, so he analyzed the situation carefully for her.
"Uncle, I know cows are very strong, and I don't want them if they have no strength. I will use drugs to knock them all down, and you uncles will only be responsible for tying them up and carrying them back." After listening to what Li Youcai said, Yi Ke realized that he had not explained clearly, so he explained.
"Is this okay? With such a powerful drug, it would be dangerous if the person fails to fall unconscious." Hu Haohan said.
"No, this medicine is made by me. I will sprinkle it all on the grass they eat. I guarantee that they will be very well behaved after eating it." He felt happy when he thought of the spectacular sight of the herd of cows falling to the ground.
"How many cows are there?" asked Chen Shengli.
"There are more than a dozen, some big ones, a few half-grown ones, and some calves. After I bring them back, each of my uncles will get a big cow, and I will raise the rest myself." Yi Ke thought for a while and said.
"That's great, we're getting a huge advantage. Haha, Ziyi's wife, we'll just accept it shamelessly." Li Youcai grinned, his teeth showing with joy.
"Thank you, Ziyi's wife. That's great. With the help of oxen to plow the land, the land reclamation process will be much faster."
"Yes, yes, the wild bull is stronger than the domestic bull. Ziyi's wife is so grateful to you."
"I never dreamed that I would own a cow one day. Our Ziyi is so lucky to have married such a lucky wife."
…
The four young men Ma Youcai, Liu Bing, Dong Guoqing and Wang Feng also looked at Yi Ke eagerly, they also wanted a cow.
Outside, a production team having cows is a symbol of wealth, but their production team of several people is so poor that it doesn’t even have a cow.
If they brought one back to the production team, they could earn work points for themselves and help the production team. Those members who looked down on them would be so shocked that their eyes would bulge out.
Yike could see what they were thinking, especially that fiery look that was too scorching. "Do you want it too?" Yike asked.
"Sister-in-law, is it okay? We only need a half-grown one, okay?" Ma Youcai answered on behalf of the other guys. ”
"Okay, one big one each. I won't give you the small ones." Yi Ke nodded in agreement.
"Great!" the boys cheered.
"Thank you, sister-in-law!"
"Sister-in-law, you are so kind!"
"Sister-in-law, I will listen to you from now on."
"Sister-in-law, you are our dear sister-in-law." The young men were very happy.
"Are you going to take it out?" Yi Ke asked after thinking for a while.
"Well, we let the cows earn work points for us in the production team, so that we can also get food in the future."
"Have you ever thought about reclaiming some wasteland here?"
"I do want to, but we can't stay in the mountains every day, so it's no use thinking about it," Liu Bing said with a wry smile.
"You can do it. You can come in and do it during the sowing and harvesting times, and go out when you have free time. Your brother Ziyi can help look after you at other times, so that you won't be delayed inside or outside." Yike suggested.
"Is this really possible?" Liu Bing frowned and thought about it.
"I think it's okay. We can help big brother with the harvest then. But big brother and his family will have to work hard at other times." Dong Guoqing was overjoyed at the thought of having his own land. He spoke quickly, fearing that the others would refuse and he would have no land to farm.
"That's great! Haha, I never thought that one day I would have my own land. It was right to go into the mountains this time. Hahaha! Then let's help my sister-in-law open up the wasteland first, and then we can plant our own land." Ma Youcai laughed excitedly.
"You can work with the uncles to fence off the wasteland you want to reclaim first, and then slowly reclaim it later." Yi Ke said.
Yi Ke actually had a little selfish motive. She didn't want Li Youcai and the others to completely enclose the wasteland there. It was obvious that these four guys listened to Zi Yi in everything and were truly her own people. Of course she has to take advantage of it first. Besides, this place is discoverable, so she has complete say.
"Yes! You don't have to hand in the crops you grow here. When the time comes, you can save the money from selling them and marry a wife. We can also help take care of you when you are out of the mountains." Du Qingcang is a complete daughter slave who does whatever he says.
"If you have family, you can bring them in to live with you. Just tell the production team that you are visiting relatives," said Chen Shengli. After he finished speaking, Ma Youcai, Wang Feng and the others fell silent. The word "family" felt so distant to them.
"Uncle, they are all alone. Ziyi and I are their family, so we will take good care of them." Yike disliked this man who couldn't speak a little bit.
"Little sister-in-law!" Ma Youcai, Wang Feng and the other three shouted gratefully. It turned out that in the hearts of the eldest brother and sister-in-law, they were family members. "Okay, okay, just remember that we are your family, your relatives. If you have any problems, come to us for discussion. Don't think about it alone anymore! Eat, eat, and have a good rest after you are full. There are still dozens of cows to eat tomorrow." Yi Ke put several pieces of meat into the bowls of Ma Youcai, Wang Feng and the other three. These three were all experts at eating meat.
"Huh!" Ma Youcai ate all three dishes, and then, as if he had discovered a new world, "It seems to be all rabbit meat?"
"Haha, aren't you a foodie? It took you so long to figure out that it was rabbit meat?" Liu Bing said sarcastically.
Ma Youcai stirred the soup in the bowl again. "There is also rabbit meat in the soup, but there are more pork bones."
Dong Guoqing gave a thumbs up and said, "A foodie is a foodie. He can tell that the soup here is made of rabbit meat and pork bones without even seeing the meat. I only found out when I was scooping the soup. It's really strange. How can you tell that it is made of rabbit meat and pork bones just by the taste?"
"Want to know?" Ma Youcai asked slowly, putting a piece of rabbit meat into his mouth while asking.
"Are you willing to tell me?" Dong Guoqing looked doubtful.
“That—is of course.” Ma Youcai swallowed the rabbit meat in his mouth and deliberately prolonged the last word. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, waiting for him to tell the reason, haha, he just didn't tell them and let them guess.
Seeing that Ma Youcai was teasing him, Dong Guoqing immediately stood up and waved his hand to the other two people - Liu Bing and Wang Feng, saying, "Brothers, let's teach him a lesson today and let him know how many eyes Lord Ma has."
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly reached out and pulled the pot of fried rabbit meat with radish on the table in front of him. Liu Bing was not to be outdone. He stared at the bowl and quickly reached out for the spicy rabbit meat. Seeing this, Ma Youcai immediately pounced on the last pot of rabbit meat and green beans. Wang Feng pulled the bowl of rabbit meat and green beans towards him. Ma Youcai was not to be outdone and reached out to grab it again. Wang Feng cleverly turned the bowl in another direction, and Ma Youcai's hand was empty.
Dong Guoqing, Liu Bing and Wang Feng each held a pot of food in their hands and laughed loudly.
"Come on! Come and grab it!" Dong Guoqing laughed proudly.
Du Qingcang:? ? ? ?
Chen Shengli:? ? ? ?
Hu Haohan:? ? ? ?
Others:? ? ? ?
Yike: What’s going on?
Zhang Yuling: "Hey, Dong Guoqing, Wang Feng, and Liu Bing, come on, put down the bowls. Everyone hasn't eaten enough yet, so why are you playing after eating?"
"Aunt, we were just joking, hehe, just joking." Dong Guoqing, Liu Bing and Wang Feng quickly put the vegetable bowls in the middle of the table and glared at Ma Youcai.
Ma Youcai understood the meaning of that look: it was a good deal for him. hehe! Ma Youcai glared back provocatively.
Yike found it funny and was happy that Ziyi had another group of brothers with whom he had such a good relationship.
"How come my sister-in-law has so much rabbit meat?" Ma Youcai stopped playing with his brothers and asked with a smile.
"We raise them. Rabbits give birth to a litter every month. Each litter has seven or eight rabbits. In a year, my cave is no longer able to accommodate rabbits. We can't eat rabbits faster than the mother rabbits, so we just eat them."
Mother Rabbit: It’s my fault for giving birth to so many children!
"Everyone has worked hard, please eat more vegetables!" Zhang Yuling invited everyone to eat.
Then everyone at the table began to deal with the meat dishes on their plates seriously, and it was quite lively for a while. But after a year of loneliness, I especially cherish the current liveliness.
