"Da Lang, you caught another wild boar? Why are you so good at hunting? Are you never empty-handed every time?" Neighbor Zhou Dahu looked at Wei Qi with envy when he came back carrying a wild boar weighing two to three hundred kilograms. asked.
Wei Qi smiled: "They were all sacrificed on the battlefield."
When Zhou Dahu heard this, he remembered that Wei Qi had been a soldier for almost ten years and had to suffer many injuries to gain such ability. The envy in his heart suddenly disappeared a lot, and he said coquettishly: "Then Da Lang, you are still the best." It’s amazing. I learned how to hunt when I came back from the army, so I won’t have to worry about food and clothing in the future.”
Indeed, hunting these days is also a technical job, and wild animals can really eat people, so most people don’t dare to go too deep into the mountains and forests. They only dare to chop some firewood and pick some wild vegetables and fruits in the periphery. If they can catch One or two pheasants, hares, etc., that is already good luck.
If you encounter wild wolves or wild boars, sorry, humans are their prey, so if you encounter these beasts, it's good to save your life, don't even think about catching them.
Only experienced and young and powerful hunters can occasionally hunt such ferocious beasts, but they still have to fight for their lives and get injured to hunt them. Unlike Wei Qi, who was unscathed and caught easily.
Therefore, Wei Qi became one of the most powerful people in the village. I don't know how many people envied him for returning home with a full load every time he went up the mountain.
"Don't I want to build my own house? The old house I live in now is too dilapidated. When it rains, the whole house leaks. I don't know if it will collapse one day if I continue to live in it. So now I have to rely on hunting to save money. Some money." Wei Qi revealed that he wanted to build a new house.
"Building a new house?" Zhou Dahu then remembered that Wei Dalang was kicked out of the house and was still living in someone else's old shabby house, so he suddenly realized, "No wonder you are working so hard. The house is indeed going to be built. After all, your wife Yes, in a few years the children will be jumping out one after another, but we can no longer live in a broken house."
"Yes, that's the truth. If I work harder now to save money and build a house, it will be easier to raise children in the future." Wei Qi agreed without blushing. There was no trace of having a child. Huo Shichu didn't look like he wanted to have children with him. They just made do with living together, just like fellow tenants in later generations.
But even if it’s a shared house, you still have to live in a more comfortable house, right? Although Wei Qi had lived in a lot of bad conditions in the last few years, after all, he was born as a prince in a big family, and he had lived a life of high beds, soft pillows, and fine clothes and food since he was a child. Therefore, as long as he had the conditions, he would of course prefer to live there. Gotta get comfortable.
Doesn’t this mean we have to save money to build a house?
Wei Qi calmly carried the wild boar home, and Zhou Dahu took the fresh news to chat with others. Men are no worse at gossiping than women.
It happened to be evening, and the men in the village came back from working in the fields. They were enjoying the cool air under the big banyan tree at the head of the village, bragging and chatting.
Zhou Dahu walked over, sat down, winked at a few men, and said, "Guess who I just met?"
"Who is it?" Liu Shitou asked, speaking in a loud voice, "Hey, is it some little widow in the village?"
"Bah! Can't you think of anything else besides the little widow?" Zhou Dahu rolled his eyes and said, without giving up, "I met Dalang Wei!"
"Tch! What's there to say when you meet him?" Liu Erguo said disdainfully, "He doesn't have any strong ideas and is as cowardly as a man. If I were kicked out of the house like this, I would have knocked on the door and smashed it after I recovered. A big family!”
Zhou Dahu choked. He didn't expect Liu Ergou to say that. He spoke for Wei Dalang: "The old man is his biological father after all. If he fights him, others will only say that he is unfilial!"
Then he changed his voice and said: "But Wei Dalang is also very good now. He shot another wild boar today. Tsk tsk, it weighs two to three hundred kilograms. It will definitely be sold for a lot of money... Wei Dalang He said he was saving money to build a new house.”
"A big wild boar weighing two to three hundred kilograms? How much does it cost? Dalang Wei is so lucky!" Liu Erguo said sourly.
"It's not just good luck, people also have skills. If you don't have the skills, you won't die or get hurt if you encounter a wild boar. If it were you, you would be good if you could escape with your life when you encounter a wild boar!" Zhou Dahu said.
"People must be lucky if they survive a catastrophe. Look, Dalang Wei has not only recovered from his injuries, but also got a beautiful little daughter-in-law. Now he plans to build a new house. I am so envious of people." Liu Shitou sighed with emotion. road.
"Hey! Wei Erlang, your eldest brother is going to build a new house, will you help?" Liu Erguo looked at a man with a gloomy face outside the crowd and asked.
That man was Wei Erlang. When Wei Erlang heard Zhou Dahu said that Wei Dalang had hunted another wild boar and planned to build a new house, he felt sour and jealous in his heart. He secretly hated this man for his hard life. He was so injured that he didn't even die. Now, It just comes out to get in my own eyes.
Although he is Wei Dalang's younger brother who is only five or six years old, he has been influenced by Mrs. Wei since he was a child, but he has never regarded Wei Dalang as his eldest brother. He only regards his younger siblings who were born from the same mother as himself as family members. , he wished that Wei Dalang was not good, how could he have feelings for him?
When asked by Liu Erguo, he rolled his eyes and said, "He is not my eldest brother. He passed away long ago. How can I help?!"
Seeing him like this, Liu Erguo sneered and said nothing. Although he couldn't stand Wei Dalang's stupidity and filial piety, he looked down on Wei Erlang even more, a typical ungrateful white-eyed wolf.
Zhou Dahu quickly calmed down the atmosphere, but before they had chatted for too long, there was a sudden thunder and raindrops fell on their heads and faces.
"It's raining! Go home quickly!" Everyone left without caring about chatting in the cool air.
After everyone went home to take shelter from the rain, not long after, they suddenly heard a shrill cry: "Struck by lightning! It's on fire!"
People who heard this howling were frightened. They didn’t know whose house was struck by lightning. They wanted to go out and have a look, but there was thunder and lightning outside, and the overwhelming sky was like a net, catching everyone and killing them. It's the same, it's so scary, where would anyone dare to go out and see it?
So no matter who shouted, everyone just stayed in their own homes and shrank.
It was Old Man Wei's family who was struck by lightning. His big brick house with tiles was struck into disarray by a big thunder. After the lightning struck, for some reason, it still caught fire. The fire was very strange. Even though it rained heavily, it was not extinguished. Instead, it burned the Wei family to nothing and turned it into ruins.
Fortunately, the Wei family escaped quickly and were not struck to death by lightning or burned to death. However, Old Man Wei and Old Lady Wei felt so sorry for their hidden family property that they ran back to rescue them. As a result, they were burned. Mother Wei burned her hair and eyebrows. It was gone, and half of his face was burned; while Old Man Wei burned both of his arms.
