Chapter 314 Not the most difficult, only more difficult
After staying in the wolf den for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Song Xixi greeted the dogs who were a little too happy to miss Shu, and carried the half-grown wild boar back home.
The Song family was not surprised by this scene, but Niu Dahan and Zhu Sanyu were shocked.
The two knew that their granddaughter was blessed by God and suddenly gained the strength to kill a cow with one punch, but they had never seen it with their own eyes.
This time I saw her hunt a wild boar without any scars on her body, and finally realized how much strength she had!
"Grandma, the weather is getting hotter. Our family can't eat all this meat in a day or two. Why don't we deal with the people who are building houses?"
Song Xixi drank two bowls of cold water to quench his thirst, and then talked to Zhang Xiaomei about the distribution of wild boars.
Zhang Xiaomei didn't even move her eyelids, and said happily: "Okay, I'll take care of the wild boar after dinner soon. If there is more meat, each family will share three kilograms!"
After the ancestral hall was completed, the Song family found more than 20 strong laborers in the village to build a house for the Niu family.
Because Niu Dahan and Zhu Sanyu were not named Song and had not participated in collective house building before, the more than 20 strong laborers they found had to be paid.
For the sake of the Song family, the wages they asked for were not much, twenty cash per person per day, and the Song family didn't have to provide meals.
The Song family accepted this favor, but they didn't want to suffer too much, so it was just right to give the wild boar away.
The conversation between the grandfather and grandson was overheard by Zhu Sanyu who was passing by, and he quickly came over and said, "It's no use, no use. We'll just pay some more after the house is built. How can we share this rare wild boar meat!"
Zhang Xiaomei waved her hand: "Wild boar meat is not a rare thing in our family. The year before last, Guabao hunted several of them and couldn't finish them all. It's just a good way to use it as a favor, so don't refuse it to the in-laws!"
Zhu Sanyu still shook his head: "It can't be done, it can't be done. We are building a house in our hometown, and the cost will naturally be borne by us. How can we let you do it as a favor?"
When Zhang Xiaomei heard this, she pretended to be unhappy: "My dear, what you said is wrong. This wild boar was hunted by a good boy. She is a child of my Song family. She is also a grandson of your Niu family. I am a grandson to my grandson."
Why can’t we do favors in our ancestors’ family?”
Zhu Sanyu was speechless and didn't know how to refute.
Song Xixi smiled and said, "Grandma, it's just a wild boar. If you can't bear to part with it, I'll hunt two bigger ones back tomorrow."
Zhu Sanyu was startled and said hurriedly: "No, no, no, the mountains are so dangerous, and this wild boar is not easy to mess with. You, a child, can't always run to dangerous places!"
Song Xixi agreed and discussed with Zhang Xiaomei to keep the pig ears. She was a little greedy for the cold pig ears dish.
Zhang Xiaomei agreed wholeheartedly, and she was also very greedy for this dish to go with the wine.
After the meal, it took an hour for the Song family, father and son, and Niu Dahan to clean up the wild boar, cut it into pounds-sized strips of meat, and delivered it to the families who helped build the house overnight.
The people who received the wild boar meat were very happy. In private, they praised the Song family for being upright and never treating others wrongly.
At the same time, I also envy the Niu family for having such a good in-laws, who handle their affairs as their own without any ambiguity.
Niu Dahan, who had been busy for half the night, blew out the oil lamp and lay down. When he couldn't sleep for a while, he started making housework with Zhu Sanyu.
When he mentioned the matter of wild boar meat, he suddenly choked up: "Before fleeing the famine, the old Song family treated us quite well. I thought it was because we were in-laws. Now it seems that I want to be simple, the old Song family
They treat us like their own family."
It's easy to add icing on the cake, but it's difficult to provide help when it's time.
Although they have money on hand, they can live without the favor of the old Song family, but with the care of the old Song family, they can truly integrate into the Song family'ao without worrying about being squeezed out or plotted against.
"My daughter has married the right person and found the right husband's family, and we have also benefited."
Zhu Sanyu rubbed the corners of his eyes, and there was moisture in his eyes: "We understand the righteousness of the old Song family. In the future, we will settle down here and live well with the old Song family. We should always think about our daughter and do everything for the old Song family."
Just think about your family."
Niu Dahan agreed with his wife's words and felt infinite regret in his heart: "It would have been better if our family had followed the old Song family when they fled the famine..."
This way Fang'er's legs won't be lame.
"Don't think about it, it's useless to think about it. Compared with other disaster victims, our family has been blessed by God for this result."
Zhu Sanyu explained to his wife, knowing very well that regret is the most useless thing: "Now that my daughter can see her whenever she wants, and we know that Fang'er and the others are living a stable life, what else are we dissatisfied with?"
These words made Niu Dahan suddenly realize: "Yes, you are right, this result is very good!"
The old couple chatted for a long time, and gradually their voices became lower and lower. A slight snoring sounded in the room, and only the insects in the corner continued to scream silently.
At the same time, Zhang Xiaomei, who couldn't sleep, pushed her wife beside her: "Old man, it's not easy for my family to come all the way here. Even if they move out in the future, let's not ignore them."
Song Wufu was about to fall asleep when he woke up suddenly with such a push: "Ah? Oh, yes, you are right..."
Zhang Xiaomei continued: "I said that if I had the opportunity to go to the capital, I would pick up my third brother-in-law and his family. But the distance is so long that I can pick him up right away. It might be the Year of the Monkey. To put it bluntly, what if the in-laws and the old couple
If you can't wait...the old couple can't support them in their old age?"
Song Wufu didn't care: "It's okay to raise him. If you have a son, you can rely on your son, and if you have a daughter, you can rely on your daughter. But I don't think the third child and his wife can rely on each other. I'm afraid I'll have to be a good boy."
In the darkness, Zhang Xiaomei rolled her eyes at him: "Since the youngest couple took over the tofu business, they have earned a lot of money and have never been lazy for a day. Why do you, the father, still look at them with old eyes?"
Song Wufu smiled apologetically: "Isn't it because the two of them have been at odds for too long, and suddenly they didn't think about it?"
Zhang Xiaomei didn't argue with him, and sighed slowly: "Lao San and Hua'er are just babies. If you give birth to two children, it doesn't matter whether the baby is a younger brother or a younger sister. You can adopt the child to your in-laws and let them take care of them in their old age."
At the end of the day, no one can say anything wrong."
It is true that the grandson will support his grandfather until he is old, but it will inevitably attract gossip. A day or two is nothing, who wouldn’t be upset if he hears it too much!
Song Wufu was horrified and said cautiously: "Old lady, are you harboring some thoughts that you shouldn't have? You want your third child to marry another so that you can adopt your good baby to your in-laws?"
Zhang Xiaomei was so angry that she lifted up the quilt and beat her hard: "Fuck your grandma! When did I have this idea? It's you, a bad old man, who has a frivolous heart and thinks about giving the third child a little boy."
Is it a child?"
Song Wufu was beaten until he almost lost his breath and hurriedly begged for mercy: "No, no, how dare I have such thoughts? I'm afraid that the third child will sever the father-son relationship with me before I say it out loud!"
Zhang Xiaomei raised her eyebrows: "How could you imagine that the third child would sever the father-son relationship with you and say that he has no thoughts? I think you are so arrogant that you wish you could kick me and have a new daughter-in-law who is as beautiful as a flower to serve you!
"
Song Wufu: "..."
Where is this? Shouldn't he have a mouth and be mute?
This old woman is getting more and more difficult to deal with!
Seeing that the old guy didn't speak, Zhang Xiaomei just thought he had acquiesced, and she was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
However, she remembered that there was an old couple from her in-laws sleeping in the room across the hall, and it was not appropriate for her to make noises in the middle of the night, so she leaned into Song Wufu's ear and lowered her voice: "Huh, if you dare to have a frivolous heart, I will lose my husband as soon as possible.
Give up on this idea!"
The more he said, the more mistakes he made. Song Wufu shrank his neck and didn't dare to say anything at all.
