Chapter 119 It was the wild boar that provoked me
"Let alone her application for cutting grass for pigs and cooking, even if she applied for no work, we would agree. A big wild boar is worth at least several hundred yuan. If someone else did, they would probably secretly take it out and sell it. How could they hand it over for everyone to eat?"
After hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue were both impressed and worried about Wen Xi. Shen Jiaojiao even pinched Wen Xi's waist and said, "Xiao Xi, you are too brave, aren't you? You even dare to provoke a wild boar. Do you want to die?"
Wen Xi looked at Shen Jiaojiao with an aggrieved face, "How could I provoke the wild boar? It was obviously the wild boar that provoked me. I was digging wild vegetables and suddenly a wild boar pounced on me. I quickly dropped the basket and climbed up the tree. The wild boar was like crazy, hitting the tree non-stop. In the end, it had no strength left, so I came down from the tree and hacked it to death. I was alone at the time, and no one could help me. I could only save myself!"
Shen Jiaojiao sighed and said nothing more. What could she say? Wenxi was almost in danger, and they almost couldn't see Wenxi anymore. Could she still blame Wenxi?
Shen Jiaojiao reached out and hugged Wen Xi in fear.
Wen Xi patted Shen Jiaojiao's shoulder with a smile, "Don't worry, it's okay. Wild boars rarely appear on the mountain here. I guess someone went up the mountain some time ago and scared the wild boars, so the wild boars ran here."
It is a very strange thing that wild boars suddenly appeared on a mountain where wild boars had never appeared before. However, since so many people were stationed on the mountain some time ago, this can explain the origin of the wild boars.
Wen Xi turned his head and whispered to Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue, "I asked you to be my helpers when I applied for cooking. In the future, you can go to work during the slack season, and help me cook during the busy season. This way you won't be too tired."
"Xiaoxi, thank you." Jiang Yue said gratefully.
She didn't expect that Wenxi had even thought of them. They had never done farm work before, and they could still handle it when it was not busy, but they would definitely not be able to handle it during the busy farming season. Now Wenxi has applied for cooking for them, so they only need to cook when the time comes, and they don't have to work hard in the fields.
How could she not be grateful to Wen Xi?
Her family wouldn't care about her, but Wenxi was just a friend she met on the train to the countryside! A friend, but he treated her better than her family.
"Then I will read out the names on the work point registration book, and whoever I read out will come over with their family to sign and seal their names." Captain Qian said, and began to read out the names. The families whose names were read out would come forward with their entire family. If they wanted to eat pork, they would sign and seal their names. If they did not want to eat pork, they could take their entire family home.
The team only eats meat twice a year, and this time the big wild boar was divided equally among the population.
This big wild boar weighs at least 300 to 400 kilograms. It is estimated that each person can get one kilogram of meat, and a large family can get more than ten kilograms. This was something that was unimaginable in the past.
They don't have to spend any money or work points, it's just like they get it for free. No one is so stupid as to not even want the pork.
So everyone signed and sealed their names happily. Captain Qian helped those who couldn't write to sign, and then they pressed their red fingerprints on their names.
Wen Xi knew that there were many people in the team and one piece of paper was not enough for everyone to sign and seal, so she specially prepared several application forms. When Captain Qian handed the application form to her, she saw that it was covered with dense red handprints.
Wenxi was very satisfied.
Without having to work, she can do whatever she wants.
Pig offal is not easy to divide, and each family gets only a little, which is troublesome to clean up when they go back, so everyone decided to eat the pig-killing dish, and Aunt Meihua arranged for people to prepare the pig-killing dish.
Start making it now so that everyone can enjoy hot and delicious pig-killing dishes in the evening.
After the pork was processed, Captain Qian asked everyone to line up to share the pork. Wenxi and the other three people got four and a half kilograms of pork, which means one and a half kilograms per person. This shows that this big wild boar was really fat and had a high meat yield.
Those who received the meat went home with joy on their faces. With so much meat distributed this time, they could eat it for a few more days. They could also pickle it, dry it, and cut a few pieces to steam every now and then.
When Wen Xi and the others went back, Lin Yiwan and her group came over. Lin Chuyang went to work in the city after the New Year, so now there were only Lin Jing, Lin Lan and Lin Qing.
"Wenxi, aren't you too brave? You even dare to provoke a wild boar." Lin Yiwan looked at Wenxi with disapproval, and then asked with concern, "I heard that you came down from the mountain covered in blood. Are you injured?"
Wen Xi shook his head. "I'm not injured. That's all pig blood. I really didn't mean to provoke the wild boar. I'm alone in the mountains. I have to find a way to save myself. Otherwise, if I get eaten by a wild boar, I guess everyone will only find my clothes in the mountains."
"If you want to go up the mountain in the future, remember to call me. We can go together. There is strength in numbers, and we are not afraid of encountering wild boars."
Lin Yiwan also found it strange. This place was neither the Northeast nor the mountains in the south. She had never heard of wild boars in all the years she had been here. It should be that a bunch of people went up the mountain before and scared the wild boars, so the wild boars ran over from somewhere else!
Wen Xi also knew that Lin Yiwan was concerned about him, and he was touched and smiled gratefully, "It's okay, there are no wild boars here, and it's unlikely that we'll encounter wild boars again."
Lin Yiwan asked everyone to walk in front, while she took Wen Xi's arm and walked behind. Looking at her mysterious look, Wen Xi knew that she must have some gossip to share.
When Wenxi goes out, he either goes up the mountain or goes to the black market. He rarely interacts with villagers, so he doesn't know much about the gossip in the village.
Lin Yiwan actually shared two things with Wen Xi.
The first thing is that after Chu Wan'er married that uncle, Qian Qiu Sheng lost everything, and he didn't get any of the two women, so he went to beg his ex-fiancee, wanting the wedding to be held as scheduled. Not only could he get back the 500 yuan compensation, but he would also have a wife. However, his ex-fiancee simply refused to see him.
Wen Xi nodded thoughtfully, "This girl is a rational person. If Qian Qiusheng can change his mind and like Chu Wan'er, he can change his mind and like other female educated youth in the future. Moreover, he only apologized in order to get his money back and to have a wife. He didn't apologize because he liked her at all. If you marry someone who doesn't like you or even hates you, you may never be able to warm his heart. You may have to work hard and suffer grievances for a lifetime. Maybe he will even hate her for the rest of his life."
