When they got home, the sisters were almost exhausted. After a while, I started to get busy. The two big boars are going to be sold in the whole of the town, and the small one is quietly thinking about packing them up and keeping them for their own food.

Anxin boiled a large pot of boiling water, and Jiaming helped Quiet clean up the little wild boar together. In fact, he is a small person, and he has no strength, how can he help much, the reason why Jing Jing did this is mainly to exercise his courage, after all, he is the only boy in the family, too timid, how can he stand up to the door?

After removing the pig's hair, he quietly operated the knife and directly disemboweled the little wild boar. The pig's head and trotters, as well as the pig's tail, were removed, and the big bones and ribs were lifted off one by one and put aside. Only then did the pork be divided into ten, each weighing about three or four pounds.

After cleaning up these quiet, he changed into clean clothes, took a basket, loaded two pieces of pork, and loaded the pig's tail, and walked to the village down the slope.

Jing Jing went to the village chief's house first, and when she saw that the door was open, she called out, "Grandma Zhao, are you at home?" ”

"Who? It's a quiet girl, come in, what's the matter with you coming to grandma? Grandma Zhao walked out of the house on her little feet.

Jing Jing took out a piece of pork from the basket and put it on the stone table in the courtyard, and then said to Grandma Zhao: "Grandma Zhao, I shot a wild boar on the mountain today, and I will bring some meat over for you to taste." ”

Grandma Zhao took a quiet hand and said angrily, "It's really not easy for you kid, the girl's family is going to go into the mountains to hunt." If you get meat, you can either exchange it for money in the town, or you can stay at home for a few younger siblings to eat, and what will you give to my wife? I don't lack anything. As he spoke, he was about to stuff the pork back into the basket.

Jing Jing hurriedly stopped Grandma Zhao, and said with some emotion: "At the beginning, we were driven out by those people in the old house, not to mention the food, we didn't even have a mouthful of hot water, or grandma thought that we sent us food." Grandma's kindness, until the time of our four sisters and brothers will not forget. Now that we have meat, where can we eat it by ourselves with peace of mind, grandma, don't tear it with me, this meat! It is the four of us who honor you and the village chief's grandfather. ”

"Since you girl said so, then I will be cheeky enough to accept it. Speaking of which, this wild boar meat was eaten many years ago. Now thanks to your girl, when you are old, you can still eat a bite of wild boar. Grandma said with a smile.

said goodbye to Grandma Zhao, and quietly walked to Huaihua's house with a basket. When they arrived at Huaihua's house, Uncle Bolt and Brother Qingshan were chopping firewood in the yard. Seeing the quiet, the two of them were very enthusiastic and hurriedly let the quiet into the house. Huaihua was very happy to see that Jing Jing came, and hurriedly jumped off the kang. With a quiet hand, he asked, "Why are you free today?" Didn't you say you were going up the mountain today? ”

Jing Jing handed the basket in his hand to Aunt Bolt, and then turned his head to look at Huaihua: "Didn't I just go up the mountain, and I also hunted wild boars, one big and one small." The big one I plan to pull to the town to sell, and the small one was unloaded by me and left at home for a few children to eat, no, I took a piece of meat and asked my aunt to make dumplings for you. By the way, I also took a pigtail for Uncle Bolt, isn't Uncle the most willing to eat this bite? ”

When they heard that Jing Jing said that he had hit a wild boar, several people were shocked. Aunt Bolt said even more loudly: "You kid, why did you meet a wild boar?" Are you hurt? ”

Gao Qingshan also looked at Quiet with worried eyes, and he didn't care about any male and female defenses, so he pulled Quiet and asked repeatedly, "Are you okay?" But where did it hurt? As he spoke, he looked up and down with a pair of eyes.

Gao Qingshan's actions made Quiet a little embarrassed. Quietly pulled out his clenched hands, turned his head and said to Aunt Bolt, "Auntie, don't worry. Don't you think I'm good? ”

Huaihua had long been frightened by the quiet words, and finally came to her senses at this time. hugged Jing Jing and cried and said, "Why do you say that you are so bold this dead girl?" I have to go up the mountain, this time, I met a wild boar, right? Don't go back in the future, I'll save half of my ration for you later." I'll lose weight, anyway, with my acacia flowers, I won't starve you to death. ”

Huaihua's words moved quietly, she reached out and hugged Huaihua tightly, and then said: "That's not good, you save your rations for me, don't make you hungry and thin, I still like chubby Huaihua." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Uncle Bolt who was standing by the door, "Uncle, your ox cart has to be borrowed from me, the wild boar is too big, I estimate that it has to be three or four hundred catties." I wanted to pull it to the town and sell it. ”

Gao Dashan listened to the quiet words, nodded, and said to the son next to him: "Qingshan, you go to the backyard to put the ox cart on it, and accompany Jing'er to the town to sell the wild boar." It's not early on this day, go early and return early, don't rush to the night. ”

After instructing his son, he looked at the quiet again, and said with a smile: "It's not early this day, this time and again, I'm afraid I have to rush to the night, you are not safe for a girl's family, let you Brother Qingshan accompany you." As he spoke, he gave his son a look, thinking, silly son, your father and I can only help you get to this point.

was so quiet that he didn't think about anything else, and said with a smile at Gao Qingshan: "That's a good feeling, I'm still afraid that I won't be able to catch up with this ox cart?" It's going to make Brother Qingshan suffer. ”

Seeing that he was looking at himself with a quiet smile, Gao Qingshan's face was slightly red, and he hurriedly said: "It's just to drive an ox cart, what's the burden, what are you polite to me?" You wait, I'll go and set the car. With that, he walked out of the house quickly.

Tell a few small ones, quiet and Gao Qingshan drove the ox cart to pull the wild boar to the town. It was the first time for Gao Qingshan to go out alone with Jingjing, and he was a little excited. Even the roads that I used to walk in the past and the common scenery feel extraordinarily quiet and serene today.

Half an hour later, Zhoujiazhen arrived. Today is not a market, it is now afternoon, there are only pedestrians on the street, and the ox cart has driven directly to the backyard of the restaurant. The fat chef of the restaurant was very happy to see that Jing Jing pulled such a big wild boar. Immediately, I called two guys to help me get over the scale. A large wild boar is 400 and 3 catties, quiet and rare generosity, erases the odds, and calculates the account according to 400 catties, and gets a total of ten taels of silver.

It was already afternoon when I came out of the house, and after such a long journey, the sun was now in the west. Thinking quietly, it was late anyway, so I simply came to the town and there was an ox cart, just to buy some food and go back. asked Gao Qingshan to drive the ox cart to the grain store. I bought a bag of cornmeal, a bag of millet, and a bag of white flour. When I got out of the grain store, I saw a small stall selling pastries on the street, so I bought two more packs of osmanthus cakes. Seeing the stall selling steamed buns, she thought that she would definitely have a meal when she got home, so she bought ten more steamed buns, five of which she and Gao Qingshan ate on the road, and five of which she took home for her younger brothers and sisters to eat. Only then did he get on the ox cart and walk out of Zhoujia Town to Qingshan Village.

The sunset on the horizon flows gently with the breeze. The afterglow of the setting sun casts an orange glow over the earth. Sitting quietly on the ox cart and shaking his legs, feeling the tranquility of the countryside and the beauty of the sunset, he hummed softly in his mouth: "Walking on the country road, the old cow returning at dusk is my companion." The blue sky is with the sunset in the chest, and the colorful clouds are the clothes of the sunset..."

Gao Qingshan drove the car in front, listening to the soft humming of the people behind him, the expression on his face was so happy, the light in his eyes was so gentle. He even thought to himself that if there was no end to this road, how good it would be, and he could go on with the girl he loved... Many years later, Gao Qingshan will still think of today's sunset, and the girl who walked with him humming songs in the sunset.

It turns out that Gao Qingshan's idea will not come true, because the road will eventually come to an end. In the gap when the sun finally got off work and the moon had not yet gone to work, they stepped on the moonlight and returned to Qingshan Village.
