Huanhuan received Chu Jingchen's displeasure at the first time, and quickly retreated to the next best thing: "Brother Atu, if you can hunt wild boars, you must also set traps, right? If you don't teach me how to hunt, you can teach me how to set traps." become."

After a pause, Huanhuan said dejectedly again: "Brother Atu, you also know that our family's life is difficult. The second uncle still owes Yaji ten taels of silver in order to redeem my contract of sale."

Chu Jingchen lowered his eyes, staring expressionlessly at the little girl who was staring at him eagerly, feeling a tightness in his chest.

Does this little girl think that he will soften his heart because of this?

When Guo opened the door and walked in, what he saw was his daughter and Atu staring at each other, and then looked at the dead wild boar on the ground.

"This wild boar is." Guo looked at Chu Jingchen in surprise, and asked uncertainly, "Ah Tu hit it?"

There are also hunters in the village, but they all go into the deep mountains with hunters from several nearby villages during the slack season. Occasionally, they will work together to hunt and kill large objects, and sometimes there are too many people to avoid injury.

It seems that this Ah Tu is really not a child of ordinary people as she guessed!

Also, was it really a coincidence that he saved Huanhuan before?
"Mother, Brother Atu hunted wild boars." Huanhuan ran towards his mother, "Mother, give us stew for lunch!"

The original owner once heard her mother and father brag that she has a cooking skill that is comparable to that of a royal chef, but the family is too poor and there is no room for her to develop. Today, she can let her mother show her talents.

Putting aside her doubts about Chu Jingchen, Guo smiled at her daughter, "This wild boar hasn't been processed yet, and the stew takes time. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it until evening."

This wild boar is not small in size, and its meat is also strong. It must be stewed for at least half an hour before the meat is rotten.

By the time Wu Xingbang and Miao rushed into the courtyard with fellow villagers carrying farm tools to help hunt wild boars, Chu Jingchen and Huanhuan had already entered the inner courtyard.

Seeing the wild boars in the yard, Wu Xingbang's elders and fellow villagers almost dropped their eyeballs in shock.

The news that Chu Jingchen had beaten a wild boar by himself soon spread throughout the village, and the whole village was boiling.

A man, or a half-grown boy, can hunt a wild boar?
How lucky is that?

The folks thought that Chu Jingchen was lucky, but Mrs. Guo didn't think so.

Under Guo's repeated questioning, Chu Jingchen told Guo that he had learned martial arts when he was a child, but his family fell into disrepair, which made Guo a little defensive.

Everyone has their own past, just like their family, as long as this person does not hurt her daughter, she will not go to the bottom of it.

The villagers didn't get to see Chu Jingchen, but they received the news that Miao's plan to sell half of the wild boar meat, and they came to Miao's to inquire about the price.

Knowing that the price of meat per catty is six cents cheaper than that at the meat stall, the villagers who are usually reluctant to spend money on meat all grit their teeth and buy three or two catties, and those who really can't afford the money will cut a few cents. two.

In addition to the folks in Wujia Village, there were also folks from other villages who had a lot of money and came to buy some after hearing the news. The hundred catties of wild pork were sold out in less than half a day.

In the evening of that day, Mrs. Miao counted the copper coins in the big basin, feeling all sorts of feelings in her heart.

How long has it been since the family earned so much money in a day?
When Mrs. Guo said before that she would sell half of the meat, she still found it difficult to sell, but when Mrs. Guo lowered the price, half of the wild boars were sold out.
