Widow Sun stopped her complaining, and waited to see the show.
However two days later, Shao Xiaoqi set the trap in the mountains and caught a wild boar weighing almost 200 kgs, shocking the whole village.
Widow Sun got so sour. What kind of luck was that!
The first section of the family was so glad. They hired someone from the village to get the wild boar back, and shared several kilos with the helpers. They made a sumptuous lunch for them to enjoy where they could eat as much meat as they could.
They could even pack and take the leftover home.
Everyone was so happy about it.
The second and third section of the family were given only 5 kgs each respectively.
Ms. Niu had thought that they would be given at least 50 kgs, so they were shocked when seeing what they received.
Ms. Fang did not care about their displeasure. She smiled. “We need to make
smoked meat, and soon we will be taking gifts back to our natal families, especially the Qiao Family! A decent amount has been given to you. When we get rich, you will get more!”
Those who were given meat from the first section of the family all nodded at this, saying that it was right!
“You are living separately, and that is all you should get!’
“True!”
“Shao Erlang and Shao Silang helped too and they both got 4 kgs respectively. Now you have 5 kgs more, that is already a lot to be given to a cousin! I would have been so glad if my cousins did this for me!”
Some smart ones, when seeing the first section of the family living a better life, defended the first section of the family, hoping that one day they could get some help from them.
All they needed to do was to defend them verbally.
Widow Sun and some others wanted to turn the family against each other, but they did not dare to.
By the end, everyone was defending the first section of the family.
Eldest Uncle did not dare to counter his wife in public, so he had to pretend as if he did not catch the helping look his brothers threw to him.
His brothers got so annoyed. Things were different now.
A short while later Second Uncle sneered. “Eldest Sister-in-law, you are looking down at us. Let’s just wait and see. You should never come and beg us for help when you need it!”
Ms. Fang laughed. “We won’t. If we need help, we will try to come up with solutions ourselves. After all, we all have a life to live, and we can’t just turn to others for help all the time. We are all people who can work and live well,
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Second Uncle got even more annoyed after hearing this. He left the place with a sunken face.
Ms. Fang felt so happy to have vented her anger in this way.
When the crowd was gone, Ms. Fang, together with her daughters-in-law and sons, started to salt the wild boar meat, and clean the yard.
Soon, she proposed. “What about preparing the things to be taken to your mothers’ families? We have enough time.”
Ms. Xu nodded in agreement.
Ms. Fang said, “How about Ms. Xu and I go home tomorrow and Ms. Qiao the day after. What about you Ms.Yang?”
Yang Xiaoni said indifferently, “Mom, we will go and pay tribute to my deceased parents at their tombs after Minor New Year.”
Ms. Fang did not object. “Okay, whichever you like.”
Qiao Xuan agreed to go to the Qiao Family the day after tomorrow.
But she was not going to bring wild boar meat or any other precious things. She smiled at Ms. Fang. “Mom, don’t save me a portion of wild boar meat. We only need two chickens, one basket of eggs and a few pastries bought from the street..”
