Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Chapter 272 Tiger skin, tiger bones, tiger tendons and tiger meat

Liu Yu was noncommittal. Liu Meixiang had always been a low-key character. She still understood the principle of keeping wealth secret, so she naturally had no objection.

The three of them reviewed another string of words and felt that nothing was missing, so they felt relieved.

The time was approaching fifteen, and the moonlight was shining on the earth. As soon as I turned out of the bamboo forest, I could see clearly what the three people were carrying in my hazy field of vision.

It's too ostentatious to carry her back to the inner circle like this. If you meet someone, your secret will be exposed.

Fortunately, they lived at the westernmost end of the village, so they didn't have to pass by anyone's door. Few of the families living here were still wandering around at this hour.

In order to avoid any complications, the three of them walked out of the bamboo forest and hurried to the Liu family's old house without any delay.

As soon as the three of them turned around the path to the mountain, they looked up and saw a man standing at the gate of the fence. Hearing the sound, the man hurriedly walked over.

"Ayu, eldest sister, why are you back so late!"

Changsheng's voice was urgent, and he took a closer look at Changsheng who was nodding towards him. His suspicions were put to rest, but he wasn't too surprised.

"Brother Dongsheng!"

"Ah, this is a tiger!"

Changsheng said hello, and then looked at the thing the three of them were carrying. He thought it was a wild boar, but now he was shocked to realize that it was a tiger.

"Hush, be silent!"

Liu Yu lowered her voice, and after saying that, she didn't stop any longer and continued as she was busy. After a while, she moved to the courtyard.

Oil lamps were already lit in the east room. When they heard some movement in the courtyard, Nian and Liu Fusheng hurriedly came out. When Xiaoxue heard that her mother was coming back, she took the lead and ran out of the east room.

When she saw Liu Meixiang, she hugged her and rubbed her cheek against Liu Meixiang.

"Ah, I actually hunted a tiger, what a good boy, you are really capable!"

Liu Fusheng had sharp eyes and could see the tiger on the ground at a glance. He looked at Li Dongsheng with surprise and admiration in his eyes!

"Oh, it's really a tiger. Are you okay?"

Nian is an old man. When he saw Liu Meixiang and Li Dongsheng standing together, his eyes flashed, but he didn't express it clearly. He just treated it as normal and said a few words of special concern.

"Thanks to meeting Ayu and Meixiang, I was able to escape!"

Under the moonlight, Li Dongsheng had a smile on his lips and his eyes were full of tenderness, looking at Liu Meixiang gently.

Liu Meixiang felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Nian. She slightly moved her hair that was scattered around her ears and said a few vague words.

"Brother Dongsheng is too modest. When we went there, this tiger was close to death, but we couldn't do anything to help him!"

Liu Yu seemed unaware of the undercurrents surging around him, seeking truth from facts.

It was getting late, so in order not to delay Li Dongsheng's affairs, Liu Yu hurriedly pushed the cart at home without anyone's help. He pulled away the stick and threw it away. With just one move, the huge tiger was moved on. car.

Liu Meixiang didn't care about being shy, and quickly fetched a piece of rag, which was enough to cover the tiger, and urged: "Take it back quickly, the sooner this leather is tanned, the better!"

Liu Yu didn't waste any more time and called Chang Sheng, and the two of them, along with the reluctant Li Dongsheng, pushed the tiger to Liweizi.

"You two help your brother Dongsheng process and tan the tiger skin. Tiger skin is rare, so don't throw it away!"

Nian waved his hand and urged the three of them out. He looked at Liu Meixiang, who was trying her best to maintain her composure, and said, "When Changsheng saw that you two hadn't come back yet after dark, he was worried to death. He also wanted to go find your father, your third uncle, and the others. We went to the mountain to look for him together, but I stopped him!"

After that, he looked at the confused Xiaoxue and sent her away with Liu Fusheng. He looked at Liu Meixiang again and said, "Follow me, I have something to ask you!"

Having said that, he took the first step, took an oil lamp from the main room, and went to the room where Liu Yu originally lived.

Here Nianshi and Liu Meixiang opened the skylight to talk openly, and over there Liu Yu and Changsheng were not idle either.

Liu Yu didn't quite understand the trouble of tanning fur, and Dongsheng didn't want anyone to know about it, so the three of them had to do it themselves.

Li Dongsheng followed the past practice of tanning fur, first peeling the skin, then gently cutting off the excess fat with a knife, and then rubbing it carefully with salt.

There was a lack of materials at home, and Xu Hong was Li Dongsheng's master, so he didn't hide the matter from him. In order to avoid surprising Mr. Xu Hong, Li Dongsheng only said that he was short of materials for tanning leather, and asked Xu Hong to give him some advice.

Xu Hong packed up all the things and materials for tanning leather and followed Li Dongsheng to Li's house.

Not to mention the surprise when they saw Liu Yu and his wife, they immediately exclaimed when they saw the tiger whose skin and bones had been separated.

Xu Hong was quite good at hunting when he was young, but he didn't dare to hunt tigers. Now that he heard that the tiger was hunted by Li Dongsheng, he suddenly felt that his future life was intimidating.

I have never hunted a tiger before, so it was good to see it now. Xu Hong was in good health, and his fur handling skills and knowledge were much better than Li Dongsheng's.

At this moment, he was quite dissatisfied when he saw the tiger skin that the three people had roughly tanned. He took out the potion and plants for tanning the fur, and ignored the dissuasion of several people, and ordered the three people to start the tanning process again.

Li Dongsheng felt that it was too hard for the old man, but Liu Yu and Changsheng were happy because they could take the opportunity to learn another craft.

Several people have been busy for an hour before the leather is tanned.

It is said that tiger meat has the effect of warding off evil spirits and exorcising cold, which is extremely rare. Xu Hong carefully pulled out the tendons of the tiger, and then instructed the three people to handle the tiger bones. They were busy until the moon was at the top of the sky before they finished processing the tiger.

A pot of tiger meat was placed aside. There was no place to eat tiger meat at the moment. The three of them didn't know what to do with the meat, so they looked at Xu Hong together.

"Old man, I have never eaten tiger meat. I heard that this meat is more tender and sweeter than beef. Today I am shameless and take the pot home to try it!"

After Xu Hong finished speaking, Li Dongsheng hurriedly picked a pot with more tender meat, served it with both hands, and said: "I heard that tiger meat is very tonic and can strengthen the body. I don't know whether it is true or not. I will take it back and try it with Grandpa Xie." Even if it doesn’t have those effects, it’s always good to eat meat to keep fit!”

After that, he asked Xu Hong not to tell others that he had hunted a tiger. The mountains were dangerous and Li Dongsheng was not willing to take any responsibility.

These words tickled Xu Hong's itch. He didn't just want tiger meat to strengthen his body. He just hoped that his husband would be stronger after eating it!

Xu Hong left happily with a bowl of meat. Liu Yu and Changshou saw that there was nothing else to do, so they pushed the cart and left.

It was indeed late at this time, so Li Dongsheng did not waste his stay. He only left two pots of meat to send to his sister-in-law's house. The rest was moved to Liu Yu's car for him to take home and eat for himself!

Such a amount of meat weighed eighty or ninety kilograms. Of course, Liu Yu would not take it all back. However, Li Dongsheng only said that he did not have time to work on the meat. He had to wait for the tiger skin to dry in the sun for three to five days, and he had to go to Fucheng with the tiger bones. One trip.

Liu Yu couldn't help it, and agreed with Dongsheng that after the meat was processed, he would return some to him, and then left without further delay with Changsheng under the moonlight.
