As soon as Tang Xingcai left, Tang Jianbing took Tang Genshui to Qingshi'ao with a basket.
Before he could put down the basket, Tang Jianbing asked nervously: "Fourth brother, I just saw Tang Xingcai. Didn't he notice our wild boar?"
"No, look, I buried them alive in snow a long time ago." Tang Jiancheng smiled and pointed to the snow bag.
Tang Genshui held a long pole and a coil of rope in his hand and asked: "Fourth brother, did you really pick up a wild boar? Jianbing said there were also little piglets, where are they?"
"Jianbing, you clear the snow here, and I'll drag back the hidden wild boar."
Without answering his father's question, Tang Jiancheng went to drag the pigs not far away, while Tang Jianbing quickly plowed the snow.
After a while, a sow weighing more than 200 kilograms and three piglets weighing 20 to 30 kilograms were revealed. Tang Genshui was stunned and asked, "Is there really such a great thing?"
"Jianbing, didn't you say these three little piglets are still alive? How come..."
Tang Genshui's eyes fell on the three little piglets.
Tang Jianbing said innocently: "It was true that they were still alive when I left, but I don't know why the fourth brother buried them alive and froze them to death."
At this time, Tang Jiancheng came over, and Tang Genshui asked again.
Tang Jiancheng said casually: "These are wild boars, which are difficult to tame. Even though they are small now, if they are raised in a pig pen, they will be very destructive. By then, the pigs will not be raised well and the pig pen will collapse." , then the gain outweighs the loss.”
When Tang Genshui heard this, he realized the same reason and stopped worrying about this issue.
The three father and son teamed up and quickly tied up the big wild boar, tied the three small wild boars together and put them into one basket, and put more than 80 kilograms of yellow hair into another basket.
Tang Genshui carried the basket, while brothers Tang Jiancheng and Tang Jianbing lifted the big wild boar.
As for the dry firewood, just leave it here and carry it back tomorrow morning.
In the mountains, this kind of dry firewood is plentiful, and generally no one takes it, unless they encounter someone with cheap hands or short-sightedness.
By this time, it was already dark.
Snow began to fall from the sky again, and the entire Daping Village was completely immersed in the snow country.
The north wind is howling and the snow is flying. There is not a single person in the village. They are all hiding in their houses, either warming themselves by the fire or hiding in bed and refusing to move.
The father and son returned to Tang Jiancheng's home in a swaggering manner.
Tang Jiancheng went out after lunch and did not come back until dark. Liu Fangfang became more and more anxious as she waited.
It's not that she's worried about something happening to Tang Jiancheng, but that there's no rice or vegetables at home. She can endure it, and she won't die without eating, but she still has nine children at home!
Xiaojiu has milk to drink, so she is not in a hurry.
The eldest sister, the second sister, the third sister, the fourth sister and the fifth sister are all a little older, so it won't be a big problem to go hungry.
But what about Sixth Sister, Seventh Sister and Eighth Sister?
They are young and weak, so they are prone to getting sick during heavy snowfall. If they have nothing to eat, it will be difficult for them to survive this cold night.
"Dead man, where have you been fooling around again?!"
Liu Fangfang was full of resentment towards Tang Jiancheng, but she got used to it.
In fact, when they first got married, Tang Jiancheng was very kind to her. He would let her eat any good food first, and he would give it to her for safekeeping as soon as he got rich. But since she gave birth to three daughters in a row, After that, Tang Jiancheng's attitude towards her became worse and worse.
After giving birth to five daughters in a row, Tang Jiancheng not only never treated her well, but also often beat and scolded her at every turn.
After giving birth to eight daughters in a row, Tang Jiancheng became a gangster. He often stayed away from home, smoking, drinking, playing cards, and flirting with women. He was proficient in everything. When he finally returned home, he didn't lie in bed and fall asleep. Just beat your wife and beat your children.
After giving birth to her ninth daughter, Liu Fangfang was already desperate.
Xiaojiu was only ten days old when Tang Jiancheng beat her ten times, and her patriarchal mother-in-law also scolded her for ten days... But today, Tang Jiancheng suddenly changed for the better.
Protect her, comfort her, cook for the children... Even if he wanted to sell the children, Liu Fangfang accepted his fate.
However, Tang Jiancheng left at noon and never came back. Liu Fangfang couldn't help but cursed herself for being stupid and naive for believing that Tang Jiancheng would get better.
If he could get better, sows would climb trees!
To laugh at herself, Liu Fangfang decided to go to her house to borrow some rice and some food at the risk of being scolded by her mother-in-law. Otherwise, what would the children do?
But just when she was dressed thickly and ready to open the door to go out, the door was suddenly pushed open.
A gust of cold wind blew in with snowflakes.
Then, they saw Tang Genshui walking in carrying a load of wild boar, followed by brothers Tang Jianbing and Tang Jiancheng, who also carried a fat wild boar.
Seeing this scene, Liu Fangfang was stunned for several seconds before covering her mouth in surprise, and tears of joy flowed freely.
"What are you going to do dressed like this? You are a moon lady now and can't go out. Don't you know? Why don't you go into the room quickly!"
Although Tang Jiancheng's tone was filled with anger, Liu Fangfang felt it was very sweet and hurried back to the room.
The main reason was that her father-in-law and brother-in-law were also here, and it was really hard for her, a month-old mother-in-law, to show her face in front of them.
"Eldest sister, second sister, boil the water quickly!"
Tang Jiancheng shouted again.
The eight children who heard the noise popped their heads out of the kitchen and saw their grandfather, uncle Liu and their father bringing back several pigs.
"Wow, this is a pig!"
"What a big pig!"
"There are three little piglets here, but it's a pity that they are all dead!"
Before Tang Genshui and the others could put the pig down, several young children had already gathered around, chattering to the pig.
The older children were also very excited, but they were beaten and scolded too much, and their personalities became much timid. They all stood aside and watched from a distance, not daring to get too close.
It was not that he was afraid of the wild boar, but that he was afraid of Tang Jiancheng standing next to the wild boar.
Tang Jiancheng sighed helplessly, then smiled and waved to them, "Come over if you want to see it. Wait a minute, and we will all have meat to eat!"
"Eating meat? Really?"
"Very good!"
"I want to eat meat!"
Several little guys cheered loudly, making the joyful atmosphere in the room even stronger.
Liu Fangfang couldn't help her curiosity, so she wrapped herself in thick clothes and came to the kitchen.
Tang Jiancheng glanced at her and said nothing more. Instead, he directed several children to boil water quickly while he went to the room to take out the tools for killing pigs.
Tang Genshui also went home and took the tools, and called Yuan Yuezhu over.
"What are you doing standing here, mother-in-law? Go back quickly! Don't get sick by then and blame me for not taking good care of you!"
Seeing Liu Fangfang, Yuan Yuezhu roared at the top of his head.
Liu Fangfang pursed her lips, but stubbornly did not go back to the room. She really wanted to see it. The family had not killed a pig for several years.
Seeing that Yuan Yuezhu was still scolding, Tang Jiancheng advised: "Mom, it's okay to just let her take a look. Anyway, we have to make a fire and boil water, so it's okay for her to sit by the fire."
"Just protect her! I'll give you a bunch of money-losing babies and let's see what you do when you get old!"
Yuan Yuezhu glared at it and went to boil water.
