Chapter 231: Saving the Year of Famine (20)

Mrs. Zhang got up and patted her body on the soil.

The boss first checked himself, and his mother had no scars on her body, so she was relieved.

Only then did Gu Shang help his younger brother and two others up to check, and these two people were not injured.

The second and third people lowered their heads in shame, and when the boss left, let them protect their mother, they were good, not to mention protecting the mother in the end, they almost killed the mother, if it weren't for the ability of the mother, there was a fairy body, then they died 10,000 times and couldn't explain it, so that their mother almost fed the wild boar.

When Mrs. Zhang saw that everyone was silent, she immediately commanded and started working.

What are you doing standing here?

"Old village chief, we are all a family, I am not so polite, in this tree hole, my sons and I found a lot of food, it is estimated that it is the stored grain of the birds and beasts on this mountain in the past, the birds and beasts in this famine year may have run away a long time ago, otherwise they will not be able to keep these things."

Now it's cheap, we can fill our stomachs with a little food, how can we survive until the autumn harvest, and these three wild boars, we have to carry them back quickly, otherwise the smell of the wild boar's death will eventually disperse after a while.

At that time, we may not be able to attract what kind of beasts will be attracted around, and if we attract jackals, tigers and leopards, we will not be able to deal with them. ”

When the old man heard that it was this reason, the old lady was right, and quickly nodded.

So everyone began to work step by step, digging tree holes, digging tree holes, and Mrs. Zhang's three sons with three daughters-in-law and several of their own 10-year-old children helped to lift the wild boar down.

It's useless to use the old people in the village, mainly the old man, who is really old.

didn't eat, this wild boar weighed at least a few hundred pounds, and the old man couldn't lift it at all.

But the old man and they were not idle, they dug up the hole in the tree, and there was nothing left.

In the evening, on the wheat field below the mountain, people are bustling, after all, it is a good harvest.

More than 20 people in the village and Mrs. Zhang's family gathered in the store, and the boss carried a knife and slaughtered the wild boar directly.

This pig-killing knife is still a private collection found by the village chief from home, which the old man kept for self-defense.

At this time, you can't hide your secrets, so you can take it out and hand it over to the boss.

After the three wild boars were slaughtered, they were probably more than 1,500 catties.

The children watched the wild boars and cheered, knowing that they had not seen meat for some days.

Some days are years.

The village chief looked at the wild boar and hesitated, but felt that since he wanted to treat Mrs. Zhang and them as villagers, he had to say something.

"Big sister, I don't know if I should say something? I want to tell you that you don't hate me for being nosy. ”

Mrs. Zhang didn't care about this.

"Brother village chief, say it, since we all live in the same village, we will be neighbors for a long time in the future, you can say anything."

"I can't hide it, there are almost ten villages around our village, and it is true that life is difficult around here, but one of the biggest benefits of our village is that we go forward for more than 20 miles, which is the largest city of our house, although we have a hard time here, but there are many rich families and big high-ranking officials and nobles living there.

You have this wild boar medicine in it, and it will be too wasteful to eat it yourself, otherwise your family has three sons and daughters-in-law, and this strong labor force can keep up, otherwise you should take these wild boar meat to the city and sell it, and you can also get some money.

Even if you want to buy food, you can buy a lot, it is not easy to think that it is not easy to hold on to the autumn harvest, I looked at the smoke of the eldest sister's house, and it was not so hot in the past two days, and the food must not be enough to eat, I have good intentions, absolutely no other meaning. ”

Mrs. Zhang was very happy when she heard it, the old man and her thoughts coincided, and she also felt that the wild boar meat couldn't be let go of this weather like this.

Besides, with more than 1,000 catties of meat, they add up to less than thirty people.

You have to eat it yourself, and you can't eat it even when it stinks.

But Mrs. Zhang was most happy to listen to the meaning of the old man's words, and people never thought about this wild boar.

Although it is said that this wild boar should not be worried about in the first place, but in this kind of time when they eat less and do not drink, they can't eat anything, and they live by gnawing grass roots and tree bark, people can maintain such a heart without a trace of greed, which shows that these old people in the village are all respected people.

Just for this character, I helped them willingly.

Mrs. Zhang nodded.

"Brother village chief, you're right, there are too many pork, we can't eat it at all, so let's make it my decision to leave those pigs in the water and pigs' heads and hooves, after all, everyone hasn't eaten meat for a few days, and we will transport the remaining wild boar meat directly to Fucheng to sell it."

Our family's food is about to bottom, although we found a lot of food from the tree hole, but after all, some dried fruits and other things can't stand it for a long time, I pondered that these wild boars were sold for some food back, it is estimated that it is enough for our whole village to survive until the autumn harvest. ”

The village chief's eyes moistened when he heard this.

He has lived for so many years, how can he not understand the human heart?

What he said just now was naturally to clear up the relationship in advance and tell people that they were not greedy for that heart.

The main thing is the combat effectiveness shown by the old lady, which makes him understand that this family is probably all masters, and they don't want to get into trouble.

Naturally, I also know in my heart that this wild boar belongs to someone else, and most of the things in this tree hole have to belong to others, because this tree hole was discovered by others, how could they find it if they didn't find it, even if they took it all, they had nothing to say, after all, it was found by others.

It's a big deal, after two days, they go up the mountain to look for it again, and they can always find a few more sporadic ones.

The village chief can tell the difference.

Compared with the lives of the rest of the village, old and young, he naturally knew that they must not be greedy, and at this time, greed is to harm themselves.

But who would have thought that what the old lady said just now was all about us, and we were talking about the whole village.

actually said that the wild boar was exchanged for grain and let the whole village survive until the autumn harvest, if he heard it correctly, the old lady wanted to help everyone survive.

Although there are not many people left in the village, this is also a human being, and every mouth has to eat.

The old lady of the family is equivalent to saving the lives of the whole village, and she rushes this person for being a benevolent and righteous person.

Several old people in the village and the children threw themselves down and knelt down, and Mrs. Zhang wanted to stare when she saw this.

She is most disgusted by kneeling at every turn, but there is no way, in this era, it seems that in order to express her respect and respect, there is no other way than to kneel.

Command his son to lift the man up.

Not to mention the rest, first divide the things found in the tree hole in the cloth bag to each household, and now it is not divided by household but by head.

But the family actually has a big pocket, which looks like a hundred pounds.

This night, everyone ate and slept with a full stomach.
