A breakup was better than a wedding. Gu Xingdong wanted to know Chen Lishu several times during the night. It was not until Chen Lishu begged for mercy that Gu Xingdong got off the kang and went to fetch water from outside to help her scrub her. He hugged her and fell asleep contentedly.
The next day, Chen Lishu slept until daylight and then woke up. The room was quiet. She looked sideways and saw that the seat next to her was already empty.
As soon as he got dressed and stood up, Gu Xingdong opened the door and came in from outside.
Seeing that she was awake, the corner of her mouth curled up into a nice smile: "Breakfast is hot in the pot. Get up and eat it when you wake up."
Chen Lishu nodded, went down to put on her shoes and wash up, while Gu Xingdong went to bring her breakfast.
"I think we don't have much firewood at home. I'm going to the mountains to chop firewood soon. Do you want to go with me?" Gu Xingdong suggested after dinner.
"It just happened to rain some time ago, so I can go pick mushrooms." Thinking that Gu Xingdong likes to eat mushroom sauce, it just so happened that I would make more before he left this time.
After the two agreed, they took the tools and walked towards the mountain together.
Gu Xingdong was chopping firewood, while Chen Lishu was digging wild vegetables and mushrooms near him.
In late spring and early summer, when wild vegetables are in full bloom and tender, Chen Lishu unknowingly picked most of the basket and also found several mushrooms.
Seeing that she had gained a lot today, Chen Lishu was about to get up and walk back when she suddenly heard a rustling sound not far ahead. She squatted down and quietly opened the bushes in front of her and took a careful look forward.
When she saw the huge black creature standing less than twenty meters away from her, she almost sat down on the ground.
Holding back the fear in her heart, Chen Lishu quietly retracted her hand, moved slowly, made sure she was farther away, then suddenly straightened up and ran in the direction of Gu Xingdong.
Gu Xingdong had already chopped two large bundles of firewood in most of the day, and was tying them with ropes before going to find Chen Lishu. When he looked up, he saw her running towards her with a panicked face, and her expression changed and she hurried over to meet her.
"Xingdong, run quickly, there are wild boars." Chen Lishu gasped and her voice was a little unsteady.
As soon as she finished speaking, a huge wild boar, weighing two to three hundred kilograms, sprang out from behind the big tree. It had long hair and tusks and it was not easy to get along with. Chen Lishu turned around and saw that she had accidentally
It was brought over and I almost cried on the spot.
Why did the two of them meet a wild boar when they were just halfway up the mountain? If someone is unlucky enough to drink cold water, their teeth will be filled.
The moment Gu Xingdong saw the wild boar, he tightened the hatchet in his hand, and at the same time, the muscles in his whole body tensed, and he went into a state of alert for an instant.
With his eyes fixed on the direction of the wild boar, he stretched out his hand to pull Chen Lishu behind him and said calmly: "Don't be afraid."
The wild boar on the opposite side may have felt that the person in front of him was not someone to be trifled with, so he did not attack immediately. Instead, he kept digging and kicking forward, making low growling sounds from his mouth.
It didn't move, and Gu Xingdong didn't rush to take action. The moment it moved, Gu Xingdong's feet hit the ground hard, and at the same time he quickly pounced towards the wild boar.
"Xingdong, you have to be careful." Chen Lishu was so frightened that she only had time to warn her. The knife in Gu Xingdong's hand had already been nailed to the artery of the wild boar's neck. The moment the knife penetrated the flesh, blood spattered out.
, the wild boar also howled in pain.
Because of the stimulation, its fanged head kept arching wildly. Gu Xingdong moved his body flexibly to avoid the wild boar's fangs. At the same time, his arm muscles protruded, and he tightly grasped the handle of the knife in his hand and pulled it down hard.
, and suddenly there was a big gash in the wild boar's neck.
As the blood flow increased, the wild boar gradually lost its strength, and finally fell to the ground with a groan, and a lot of dust around it was kicked up by its heavy body.
"Xingdong, how are you? Are you injured?"
The moment the wild boar fell to the ground, Chen Lishu immediately ran towards Gu Xingdong. It wasn't until she checked the person up and down to make sure that he was not injured that her heart finally fell back into her stomach.
"You are too reckless. Why do you rush up to such a big guy without caring about it?"
Gu Xingdong smiled at her reassuringly: "I'm really fine. You forgot that we have wilderness survival training, and killing large animals is also a compulsory course."
Chen Lishu nodded and looked at the wild boar on the ground: "What should I do with it?"
"What do you want to do with it?"
Chen Lishu thought for a moment and raised her head: "Why don't you leave it to the team, and everyone can share some meat to improve the food."
Gu Xingdong nodded, bent down, picked up the wild boar on his shoulders, and went down the mountain with Chen Lishu.
At this time, all the villagers were working in the fields. Only Zhang Changhe, the party secretary, was guarding the brigade headquarters. When he saw Gu Xingdong resisting a big guy coming over, his eyes immediately went straight.
"Eldest nephew, this is..."
"Uncle, I met you on the mountain. Lishu told me to bring it over and share it with everyone."
He was away from home all year round, and his wife still needed everyone to take care of her in the village, so he gave all the credit to Chen Lishu.
When Zhang Changhe heard that it was Chen Lishu who sent it, he started to look at her differently.
Because of Gu Xingye's relationship, he had heard about some of her private actions. As the saying goes, people don't punish officials, so he always turned a blind eye.
Now seeing that she is able to let go of such a big wild boar, knowing that she is still a good child in the true sense of the word, she can't help but secretly nod her head. The daughter-in-law of the Gu family can do this. It seems that such a family will not suffer any disadvantages if their daughter marries her.
"Don't worry, I will remember this for you. Even though you are not working now, I will convert it into work points for you after the wild boar is weighed."
Chen Lishu didn't expect to have such a harvest, so she smiled and said to Zhang Changhe, "Then I'll thank you uncle first."
When she thought of something, Chen Lishu said again: "Uncle, when dividing the meat, can you give me more pork?"
Zhang Changhe was happy: "Okay, your man beats the pigs, why not share more pork?"
The villagers soon learned that the Gu family had killed wild boar and handed it over to the village, and the pork would be distributed the next night. They were so excited that they no longer had the intention to work.
When is this? You can't even eat two pounds of meat during the Chinese New Year, and some people can't even see any meat all year round. It's strange not to be excited.
"Old sister-in-law, I really ruined your Xingdong's fortune. I've heard that this big guy weighs more than 200 kilograms. You said that if others saw this, their legs would be weak. Your Xingdong is so powerful.
, even wild boars can be killed.”
A woman working in the field couldn't help but talk to Li Xiulan.
"This child has this ability because he was taught well by the country and the army." Li Xiulan replied with a smile. In fact, she is still worried about it now. The third child has been brave since he was a child. He is a wild boar and he doesn't know how to endure it.
