Chapter 95
Jealousy won’t come
"Auntie, you don't need to share the meat. Qiongqi caught it for you. How can you share it with others?"
Chen Xiaohe didn't want to either. He was young and couldn't speak tactfully like adults, so he just said what he had to say.
In his eyes, even if the meat is distributed to the villagers, it belongs to others, so he is unwilling, even though his family can get it when the meat is distributed.
"Yes, grandma, everyone in the village knows what you mean. Let's not divide the meat this time. Winter is coming, and hunting with Qiongqi will definitely not be so easy in the future. I will save this meat for you for the winter.
"Wu also followed suit to persuade Si Qing.
"Isn't this far from winter? It's just some meat. Qiongqi came back in one day. What are you afraid of?" Si Qing said and glanced at Qiongqi.
Qiongqi, who was immersed in eating, quickly raised his head and nodded in line with Si Qing's words.
That's right, it's just some meat. It will go to the mountains to catch some more for its owner soon.
"Auntie, there's really no need..." Si Shanhe wanted to persuade her again.
Si Qing's face darkened, and he looked at Si Shanhe angrily: "Okay, this meat is mine, I have the final say, why don't you hurry up and call Si Zhengping over!"
Si Shanhe then shut up and reluctantly went to find the village chief.
Si Zhengping is currently taking inventory of property at Si Dashan's house with the three elders of the Si clan.
Because Si Dashan's family has never thought of leaving the village, his family's belongings can now be said to be basically complete.
Si Zhengping and others found two hundred kilograms of unthreshed wheat and five hundred kilograms of corn in the house. They even found two gold and jade bracelets and a full twelve taels of silver in Mrs. Si's box.
Si Zhengping and the three clan elders were almost shocked.
They really didn't expect Si Dashan's family to be so rich. Let's not talk about the ten taels of silver, let's talk about the pair of gold and jade bracelets. At first glance, they are not ordinary things. The exquisite patterns carved on them, as well as the fineness of the jade,
All of them show its value.
"How could Si Dashan have such valuable jewelry?" The clan elders all found it a bit incredible.
Si Dashan is just an ordinary farmer, and Si Xuewu is just a rogue. How could he afford such expensive jewelry?
As for Mrs. Si's own, everyone thinks it is even more impossible. When she and her two sons fell into the hands of the refugees, they were almost eaten as humans and animals, and their lives were almost lost. How could she be able to hide the jewelry?
Several people were puzzled.
At this time, Si Shanhe came over and said, "Village Chief, my aunt has something to do with you."
When Si Zhengping heard this, he handed over the inventory of property to the clan elders and hurried to Si's house.
As soon as I arrived at Si's house, I heard Si Qing say that the meat was going to be divided again.
Si Zhengping urged her to forget it.
However, Si Qing's mind could not be changed easily, so in the end Si Zhengping had no choice but to agree.
"In that case, Si Shanhe, let's just take the wild boar and divide it this afternoon." Si Qing finally made the decision.
It was almost noon now, and most of the people in the village had gone to work in the fields. It was too late to notify them of the meat distribution.
Si Zhengping decided to wait until dinner was over before informing everyone.
When he returned to Si Dashan's house, the three clan elders hurriedly greeted him and asked, "What does my aunt want to see you for?"
"Qiongqi came back after catching a wild boar, and my aunt asked me to arrange for the meat to be distributed among the villagers." Si Zhengping replied.
The elders of the three clans were all stunned after hearing this: "How come? How long ago was it last time we divided the meat? Why didn't you persuade my aunt?"
"Why didn't you persuade me? But my aunt is only worried about the big guys being able to eat meat. How can I persuade her?" Si Zhengping's tone sounded very helpless.
