Jiaohua Growth Guide [Rebirth]

As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, and experts watch the way.Although the group of men, women and children in Gujia Village couldn't understand how good Gu Ci's archery skills were, they even thought it looked easy just by looking at it, but watching the wild boars in the pit fall down one after another, even the second man Such unconvinced people also have to be convinced.

As for the hot-blooded half-baby boy like Gu Jie, he admired this elder sister even more. After this incident, when Ah Bao went to school again, no one would dare to show him face. Envy, envy him for having such a good eldest sister.

Of course, this is something to come.

Right now, anyone with enough strength has to go down to the pit to lift up those half-dead wild boars, and the women in the village have to hurry back to boil water and pluck the hairs of the pigs.

The wild boar that Gu Dashan disemboweled was the largest among them, with a gross weight of at least three hundred catties. Add some wild vegetables, and then stir-fry those pigs and those pickled vegetables, enough for the whole village to have a good meal.

For farmers, the most fearful thing is natural disasters and man-made disasters. Nanshan’s crops have been ruined a lot, but it is a great joy to get rid of this group of evil animals. Naturally, every household is more lively than the New Year. It is also rare for the village to be harmonious because of such a happy event.

The running water mat was placed in the yard of Uncle Gu Liu’s house. The flour and brown rice used to make the staple food were all from Uncle Gu’s home. I also took this opportunity to express my gratitude to Gu Ci.

After the meal, the patriarch asked everyone not to leave in a hurry, and asked the women to stay and talk about how to divide the remaining wild boars. When they heard that Gu Ci and Gu Dashan were going to occupy the remaining two wild boars, some women In an instant, he was not calm.

"The crops ruined by these animals belong to us, and we also dug the pits. Why does Sister Gu occupy two ends with a little bit of effort?"

"That's right, that's right, old six, don't you think that the eldest sister saved your girl's life today, so you are rushing to instigate it?"

"Anyway, I don't agree..."

A group of women were arguing below, and the ones who yelled the loudest were the narrow-minded and talkative women in the village. When the patriarch saw this group of people, he became angry and knocked on his crutches, "The elder sister's share It was ordered a long time ago, and it was all nodded by the heads of your family, and I am telling you now, just to inform you, and ask how the remaining two wild boars will be divided?"

The patriarch let out a howl, and the crowd fell silent for a while, but a shameless woman like Qiu Niangzi, who only wanted things, was not happy, she raised her eyebrows, and still refused to give up, "Hmph, the effort of her sister Gu's two arrows is worth two heads!" Pigs, we have worked so hard to divide the two heads evenly..."

"Back then, I asked the men to go to the pit to kill the pigs, and the two wild boars were given to you as usual. You men don't have the guts." Seeing that his mother-in-law didn't like it, she didn't have a good face, "Now that the eldest sister shoots two arrows and wins two pigs, she is not convinced. If she has time to yell here, it's better to develop her own brain and skills."

Uncle Gu Liu's words were too merciless, not only Mrs. Qiu, but also the women who had quarreled badly just now blushed and murmured unconvinced, but they were too embarrassed to say anything blatantly.

They settled down, and the patriarch didn't delay any longer, and asked directly: "Then according to everyone's wishes, should the remaining two pigs be kept and continue to cook big pots of rice to eat together, or should each household share two catties and go back?"

"Make a big pot of rice? Whose firewood, whose pots and bowls, and whose food should be used for cooking? Besides, this big pot of rice is not cheap. Those who eat for free, like some people, have no fields and no land to waste in Nanshan. I’m too old and weak to do physical work, and I haven’t dug this pit, so why don’t I come to eat?”

Although Mrs. Liu didn't name her by name, everyone around her knew that she was referring to Aunt Bangen and his wife. There were several households without land in Nanshan, but they were the only family that didn't have a strong labor force to dig a hole.

Aunt Bangen endured it, but she still couldn't hold it back: "Don't worry, next time even if you, Mrs. Liu, personally come to beg me to eat, I won't come to eat..."

Liu rolled her eyes, "Yo yo yo, you treat me with such a big face, I beg you..."

"Shut up, why are you arguing?" The patriarch slammed his cane on the square table beside him again, "Second Gu, take care of your mother-in-law's mouth, if you don't keep an eye out for the wind every day, you will arrive at the end of the day." Even if Bangen didn’t contribute to some trivial matters in the village, the wild boar must be responsible, don’t forget how much the sons and daughters of Bangen’s family have contributed to this road in the village.”

Aunt Bangen didn't want to talk about this with the likes of Liu Shi, "Come on, these are all past events, don't need to mention them. I'll stop talking today. I have nothing to do with my old man about the Nanshan wild boar. Li, we don't want this stuff either, so if we come to eat this meal today, we'll just join in the fun."

After finishing speaking, Aunt Bangen helped her man walk back.

The patriarch also knew the temperament of the two of them, so he let them go after yelling twice, and was anxious to continue digging in the afternoon, so he didn't delay any longer, "Since everyone wants to divide it so clearly, but firewood and food If you can't figure it out, then simply divide this wild boar..."

"The patriarch, how do you divide it up? Is it divided according to the population of the family, or according to the number of fields in Nanshan?"

"Needless to say, the fields in Nanshan will naturally be divided. People like us who have ruined their three acres of crops will have to share a few more catties to compensate for the damage, right?"

"Mr. Liu, according to what you mean, a family like ours with twenty or so people, with only one mu of land in Nanshan, but seven laborers to help, wouldn't it be a pig's tail in the end? "

"..."

Everyone wanted to share a few more catties of wild pork, and they didn't want to lose money. When someone opened their mouths, these women naturally made a lot of noise.

Gu Ci looked tired, greeted the patriarch, and was about to leave first, anyway, the remaining two wild boars were none of her business.

The patriarch originally wanted to keep her, but when he saw the women around him who were about to fight over two catties of meat, he felt a little embarrassed when facing Gu Ci, so he didn't want to keep her. Kindly ask Uncle Gu Liu to help her send the two pigs to Shorty Slope.

With such kindness, Gu Ci naturally felt welcome, and called Gu Dashan's family before leaving.

The weather is hot, so the wild boar must be dealt with quickly. Gu Dashan's family is not idle when they arrive at Aizipo, they help to light the fire, shave the hair, and clean it.

After handling a pig, everyone was sweating from exhaustion, so they sat under the eaves to drink tea and rest. Gu Ci asked the little girl to pour tea for everyone, and brought out a handful of melon seeds by the way.

Gu Ci greeted them to eat, while discussing with them: "Uncle Dashan, this pig is bigger, you can go back from here, this pig can't be sold for a good price, and the pig of this pig is in the water, you Take it back too..."

"It can't be done." Gu Dashan's mother-in-law hurriedly waved her hand. She is a married woman from afar, and she is petite, but her face and Gu Dashan are a serious husband and wife. She is not familiar with the village. She lives deep in the village. She has few contacts and is not familiar with the villagers, but after getting acquainted with them, she is a warm and talkative person, and she is not very obedient to her men like other women in the village, but often jokes.

For example, right now, she took a look at Gu Dashan, then smiled at Gu Ci and said, "I'm watching from above today, I think your Uncle Dashan is just trying to figure out the matter of killing wild boars, and he was so shameless at the time. This half of the wild boar picked up a pie that fell from the sky..."

Gu Dashan also had a relaxed temper when he spoke, and he was not angry when he heard his mother-in-law's words, but said cheekily: "That's because your man is a person who 'knows what is a hero', Er Manzi slowed me down a step , but I won’t be able to pick up this pie.”

Gu Ci listened to the bickering between the husband and wife, and smiled from the sidelines, "Aunt Dashan underestimates Uncle Dashan too much. If there is no Uncle Dashan, I might suffer a lot. As you can see, there are only three people in my family. Half of the pigs have been sold without knowing how, and the weather is hot again, if you don’t take them back and eat them, they will easily spoil.”

Of course, Gu Ci was speaking politely. Without Gu Dashan, she would have killed the wild boar neatly today, but when Gu Dashan said this, she was thinking about his usual care for her family, and the pig butcher He didn't have any tools himself, and he was not good at business in the town, so he took the opportunity to sell it.

"That's true." Gu Dashan nodded, and then said: "By the way, the three of you definitely can't finish eating this pork, and it's not good to smoke bacon this June, so we can only sell it in the town .”

"Don't you have to trouble Uncle Dashan." Gu Ci poured him another bowl of tea, "You also know that I don't have many people in this town, and I don't know anything about the business in the town, so I want to ask you."

Gu Dashan frowned, "I have never sold wild pork, but I heard from the hunters in the town that this wild pork tastes much better than domestic pork, the meat is stronger, and the price is higher than pork. It's just that I usually do small business, and you, a pig and a half, may be hard to sell for a while."

Gu Ci really doesn't know much about business, "Let's talk more, just tell me where to set up a stall, or which restaurant accepts this game, I will pick half of it tomorrow to have a look, and the rest Say it again."

"Then I'll take you for a walk tomorrow morning. We have a lot of family members, so I'm sure we don't want to eat half a wild boar. I'll sell it at a stall tomorrow. I'll take yours to a restaurant I know first."

Gu Ci didn't try to be brave, and nodded. All she needs now is money, and she just wants to save enough money to bring her two young children to town as soon as possible.

After finishing the two pigs, the sun had already set to the west, and Gu Ci didn't care about inviting Gu Dashan's family to dinner. He cut up a leg of pork and a pair of pig intestines, carried them in a bamboo basket, and went to Lijia Village alone.

Although June is not a period of lean harvest, the crops in the fields have not yet been harvested. For people with poor conditions, it is the most difficult time for life. The whole Li family saw such a big leg of pork sent by Gu Ci. Startled: "Elder sister, are you picking up a lot of money?"

"Almost." Gu Ci still had to hurry back. After her third uncle helped to pick up the things, she didn't enter the house and said concisely while wiping off her sweat: "There are a lot of wild boars coming from the crop fields in Nanshan, I thought of a way." , I beat five of them last night, and I split two, so I will send some to grandpa."

Hearing this, everyone in the room was speechless in astonishment, and it was the third uncle who was the first to react, "Wild boar? These are wild boars! That wild boar with tusks in the mountains?"

"Yes." Gu Ci nodded and looked at the sky outside. The sun had already set, so he didn't explain further: "The other end of the house is waiting for me to go back. Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, I I won’t stay any longer, next time I’m free, I’ll bring Jiaojiao and Abao to see you.”

"My dear, you are really capable." Yang came back to her senses and was amazed. Although she had a lot to ask, but there were only two young ones at home, Gu Ci was impossible. It's not good to stay for those who stay, "When the sun goes down, it gets dark quickly. I'll ask your cousin to see you off."

Going back through a section of mountain road, Gu Ci was still a little apprehensive in the dark, so he didn't delay, put down the tea bowl, and hurried back with his big cousin A Hui.
