Warm winter sun!
It shines on Gu Xinran, Gu Yuchen, Xiao Ba, as well as Xiao Mingzhan, Qi Da, and Qi Er.
They were on a gentle slope deep in the Daqing Mountains, discussing how to capture a group of wild boars that were eating moss two miles away.
Gu Xinran was the first to speak. "We each take one of the five wild boars, and Brother Xiao will be in charge. Is that okay?"
After more than half a month of getting along, Mr. Xiao became Big Brother Xiao and Miss Gu became Xinran.
"no!"
“No!”
Brother Gu and Xiao Mingzhan spoke at the same time.
"Sister, although you have some skills now, you are far from being a match for the wild boar."
"Xinran, I'm healed now. You climb up a tree and hide there. I'll take care of one end."
Tsk, it really hurts to listen to this, it’s so disrespectful!
"Brother Xiao, I'll just fight the smallest one. You stay on the sidelines and scout the enemy. If I can't do it, you can take over. You have to give it some room to grow."
Seeing Xiao Mingzhan nod, Brother Gu said to Gu Xinran helplessly, "That's it. Be sure to pay attention to safety."
The action begins!
It’s over as soon as it begins!
Haha, Gu Xinran only injured the little wild boar with his first strike. When he wanted to strike it a second time, the wild boar had already died under Xiao Mingzhan's arrow.
This sick beauty is not weak at all.
Xiao Baqi and Da Qier completed the task in less than three minutes.
Gu Yuchen fought for the longest time, mainly to allow him to accumulate experience in fighting the enemy. Several masters around him instructed him to swing left, chop right, slice up, and chop down, and Gu Xinran watched with great joy.
Among the five wild boars, the two largest ones weighed over 400 pounds, and there was one more than 300 pounds, one more than 200 pounds, and one more than 100 pounds.
Everyone decided to distribute the three largest ones to the villagers. Life was really hard for the villagers, and many families hadn't tasted meat for half a year.
The family kept the smaller head and gave the other one to Duan Yunchi.
He has sent many good things over in the past half month. He would come in the middle of the night and pull a carriage. The Gu family's cellar was almost full. Fortunately, she secretly put a lot of them into the space.
They also sent two pieces of century-old ginseng and two pieces of Ganoderma lucidum.
No one had any objection.
Brother Gu went back to the village alone to call people to bring the prey, while the others continued hunting.
When the large group of villagers arrived, they had hunted a deer, three pheasants and five rabbits.
It feels like I'm here to pick up meat. It's so cool to be with the masters.
Gu Xinran remembered that he was once a master, alas, a hero never brags about his past achievements.
She was not very good at hunting, but she found many rare medicinal herbs such as Gastrodia elata, Polygonatum sibiricum, and Panax notoginseng.
When the villagers were about to arrive, Qi Da and Qi Er hid in a tree.
The village chief brought over twenty or so young and middle-aged men, and almost every family came, except for Widow Sun's.
Three people came from Zhang Bo's house, bringing a lot of ropes, sticks, and torches.
Everyone was ecstatic when they saw the pile of prey in front of them, and the village chief was no exception.
"You four hunted all this? That's amazing!"
Gu Yuchen said modestly: "It's mainly because of my two cousins who are very capable. Grandpa Village Chief, Uncle Zhang, it's getting late, let's hurry down the mountain."
The village chief ordered everyone to quickly tie up the prey and run down the mountain as hard as they could while it was still light, hoping to get out of the mountains before dark.
After a safe journey, we finally arrived at the foot of the mountain at around ten o'clock in the evening.
The foot of the mountain was filled with villagers waiting for their families to return and watching the fun.
When they saw their prey, they opened their mouths wide. It was the first time in their lives that they had witnessed such a spectacular scene.
Xiao Mingzhan and Gu Xinran didn't like being watched by others, so while everyone was watching the prey, they went back with the pheasants, rabbits and medicinal herbs.
Xiao Ba spoke as a cousin representative:
"Grandpa Village Chief, hello, fellow villagers!
Thank you for taking care of my aunt and cousins over the years.
Unable to express our gratitude, my brother and I decided to give the three largest wild boars we hunted today to the villagers.
Grandpa Gu, Grandpa Village Chief, I'm going to trouble you now."
"Wow!" "Oh my God!" "Oh my God!" "That's great!" Various exclamations came one after another.
The village chief looked at Grandpa Gu, Gu Yuchen and Xiao Ba with gratitude, and said to the villagers:
"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment. Everyone should thank the Gu family and the Gu cousins.
It hasn't rained for four months, and the price of rice has tripled.
In this case, three wild boars weigh more than a thousand kilograms. There are 19 households and 225 people in our village. Each person can get a few kilograms. This is a great favor and we must remember it in our hearts.
Let's carry the wild boar to the village center to dry in the sun. Tomorrow at dawn we'll kill the boar and divide the meat. We'll have the butcher's meal. Everyone who went up the mountain to carry the game today will get an extra four pounds."
"Thank you, Gu family, thank you, Grandpa Gu, and Brother Xiaoba..."
The sound of gratitude is endless.
Grandpa Gu smiled proudly and was very happy. The Gu family's reputation in the village reached its peak.
It was already past eleven o'clock when everything was settled.
I heard from my grandfather that many people were guarding the wild boar and were reluctant to leave.
I plan to stay up all night and wait for tomorrow's pig slaughter and meat sharing for a big meal.
Wow, the temptation of meat is so great!
Most people don’t eat meat twice a year, so with such a big surprise waiting for them, how can they sleep?
No matter what others did, Gu Xinran slept very soundly because she was really tired.
On the second day, after morning exercise, I had breakfast.
Gu Xinran took Xuanxuan and Tingting to watch the fun, and Xiaoba followed behind worriedly.
Brother Gu went to school and took a look.
The drying yard in the center of the village was crowded with people, and children were chasing each other and playing.
Some adults were drawing lots to get numbers, some were preparing wild boars, and some were boiling water to make blood sausage...
It’s not even this lively during the Chinese New Year. Probably the whole village has gathered here.
As soon as Xuanxuan and Tingting arrived, they were pulled away to play by their friends.
