Jiang He sighed, and after a while he said, "Forget it. If I told you not to care, you wouldn't be yourself anymore."
He stood up and packed up the gauze, cotton swabs, etc., and asked her if she was hungry.
Mu Ruanruan said she wasn't hungry and wanted to go out and chat with Qi Juan and Uncle Liu. Jiang He said coldly, "You can't sit still just because you got hurt?"
She sat back down and sighed, "Other boyfriends are so worried and gentle when they see their girlfriends get hurt, afraid that they'll be hurt or feel wronged. But I'm in such a bad mood. Not only do I not get any comfort after my hand is broken, I'm also being scolded."
She pursed her lips and looked like she was about to cry.
Jiang He put the trash aside, sat down next to her, put his arm around her waist, and gently kissed her forehead. Then he looked at her as if to ask, "Is this okay?"
How could that be possible?
She pushed him in anger, almost forgetting about her injury, and pushed both her hands against his chest.
He grabbed her hand, frowning, doting but helpless: "What do you want from me?"
"I'm angry, won't you comfort me?"
Jiang He lowered his eyes and smiled, the muffled laughter was so low that it seemed to vibrate in his chest.
"How can I coax you? I'll give you my life, okay?" He rested his chin on her forehead and said softly.
Mu Ruanruan wanted to say something when she heard a noisy voice outside. From the sound of footsteps, she could tell there was a large group of people.
"What a big wild boar! It must weigh at least 200 kilograms."
"Of course not. It took four of us to carry it down. It was really heavy."
"There are always wild boars in this mountain. They dig up the vegetable fields and make a mess. We villagers have set traps many times, but we can't catch them every time. They are very cunning. How did you hunt this one?"
"It's not us, it's him."
Ruan Daning walked to the end of the team, carrying a pig weighing about fifty pounds on his back. It was the one that bumped into Qi Juan, Mu Ruan and the others.
The piglet was already injured by Mu Ruanruan's crossbow, and after the collision, Mu Ruanruan had the help of spatial skills, and the force of that blow was not small, and the piglet was dying.
Ruan Daning went to drive and found that the road was blocked. They came from the mountains and took a long detour. He went out to look for the car and found it, but the road was very narrow and the car could not drive in at all.
We had no choice but to stop ten miles away.
When he entered the village, he found a few more people to carry the wild boar.
The older one still had one breath left, but the younger one was already dead.
Five strong men went there, four of them were responsible for lifting the big one, while Ruan Daning and another one were responsible for the small one.
The group went there in a mighty procession and came back happily.
Ruan Daning also found the bundle and took it over.
Jiang He called the village chief and asked if Uncle Liu didn't mind, so he could borrow the stove fire and gather all the villagers together to eat wild boar meat in the evening.
There are only a dozen households in the village, so a small wild boar is enough. The big ones are slaughtered and distributed to everyone.
Everyone refused at first, but after the village chief gave the order, they started to prepare to slaughter a pig in the yard in front of Uncle Liu's door.
Killing a pig is a big event in any village, and this time everyone is more motivated because the meat is distributed for free.
The village is remote and has no electricity, so things have to be done before dark.
Jiang He also went over to help.
The village invited a butcher. The butcher was very skillful and with the help of several people, he quickly finished the job. Then he boiled water to scald the hair and then dismembered the animal.
Mu Ruanruan and Qi Juan didn't dare to look and hid in the house.
Aunt Liu came in, holding a bowl with a few hot pancakes on it.
"You must be hungry. It's still early for dinner. You guys can eat first."
Qi Juan took the bowl and said, "Thank you, Auntie."
"Everyone should be thanking you. You men are really nice and kind-hearted. You shared these two big pigs among everyone without hesitation."
There were simple and honest people everywhere. Women came in in groups of three or four to thank Mu Ruanruan and Qi Juan, which made them feel embarrassed because, after all, they were not the ones who did the work.
A pig, especially a wild boar, can be sold for more than one hundred or two hundred yuan, which is enough for an average family to live on for half a year or even a year.
In recent years, food coupons have gradually become unnecessary and prices have risen, but two such big pigs are a huge fortune for anyone.
Jiang He and Ruan Daning could have sold the two pigs for a lot of money if they had carried them to town, but they didn't and chose to give them to the villagers for free.
The land in this village is barren and the crops are not good. People go hunting on weekdays, but the men are all working outside, and most of the people left at home are the elderly, children, women and children. When they go hunting, they just go to the mountains to set traps.
So there are quite a few wild boars here.
What they didn't know was that all the wild boars in that litter had been captured by Mu Ruanruan, and they were still discussing going to the mountain after some time to see if the other ones had escaped.
Some people said he must have run away, some said he didn't, and everyone was discussing it enthusiastically.
Jiang He and Ruan Daning didn't say anything. They were busy flushing the yard that was stained red with pig blood. One was flushing and the other was sweeping, sweeping the pig hair and other garbage aside.
After the pork was divided, several middle-aged men and women came and entered Aunt Liu's kitchen.
The meal was served before sunset, and the main course was of course pork products.
Braised pork, fried pork, braised large intestine, stir-fried pork liver, etc. There were five tables of people, and each table was filled with delicious dishes.
Both adults and children are very happy.
The village chief brought a few jars of wine, saying that it was made with ginseng he had dug himself and had been soaking for more than half a year. It was very nutritious.
A man said loudly: "Brother Jiang and Brother Ruan's pig head, the village chief's wine, the villagers are in for a treat, everyone eat and drink."
After saying that, he raised a big bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
The atmosphere was lively, and wine was poured in front of everyone. Everyone drank in rounds, ate for a while, and then drank for a while.
The women no longer cared about their men and let them get drunk, while they would take a sip from time to time, their faces flushed.
Jiang He drank all of Mu Ruanruan's wine. Jiang He said that she was injured and would not let her drink a single sip. Instead, he picked up two big pig's trotters for her.
"Eat it, like cures like."
She gave him a piece of pig's head in retaliation.
Jiang He ate it in one bite and said, "This is a piece of pig cheek meat. It tastes good."
Haha, it turns out I ate too much pig face.
He gave her another piece and said, "You always blush. Eat more."
Mu Ruanruan didn't eat it, so she picked it up and put it in his bowl, and he ate it with a smile.
The auntie at the same table joked with them: "You two have such a good relationship."
This made Mu Ruanruan blush and she lowered her head to eat.
Jiang He smiled and asked everyone to eat. He picked up a piece of lean meat for Mu Ruanruan. When they had almost finished eating, he took her to wash her hands.
It was getting dark and lights were turned on in the house.
The crowd gradually dispersed, leaving only a few people to clean up the dishes.
Aunt Liu came over to show them where they would sleep. She thought they were a couple, so she naturally arranged Jiang He and Mu Ruanruan in one room, and Ruan Daning and Qi Juan in another room.
Mu Ruanruan hurriedly refused. Aunt Liu patted her hands and said with a smile, "It's okay. We don't have any taboos here. You two should go to bed early."
"I'm not saying anything taboo, but..."
The old lady closed the door and went out, leaving Jiang He looking at Mu Ruanruan and smiling softly.
