"I'm afraid this isn't the Wild Boar King!"

A brave woman went up and kicked the dead wild boar.

"Oh my god, it looks like it weighs about 400 to 500 kilograms."

"This one alone is enough for so many of us to eat."

The South is indeed rich in resources; even the wild boars in the mountains are so fat and strong.

Yun Ming had a sword on his waist, and he and Yun Kang looked like they had rolled through a quagmire. They stood in front of the aunties with pride and accepted their praises.

"I didn't expect Young Master Yun to be as powerful as his second and third brothers. He really deserves to be from a military family!"

Yunkang next to him looked even more proud. Although his father was not a military general, his grandfather was.

"Young Master Yun, can we have meat for lunch?"

Yun Ming said very proudly, "Eat! We have to eat so many wild boars."

As he said this, he couldn't help but slurp his saliva. He hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

Yun Ming looked up and saw Lin Yinan and his eldest sister Yun Yan standing in the crowd. He hurriedly shouted to them, "Eldest sister, Third sister-in-law, Third brother asked me to tell you, you are responsible for the arrangement of these wild boars."

Not seeing Yun Mo coming back, Lin Yinan asked, "Where are you at San Ge's?"

Yun Ming, "He has something else to do, so he will be back later."

It was almost noon. Zhang, who was in charge of the kitchen logistics, turned her head and looked at Lin Yinan, "Anan, are we going to kill the pig for lunch?"

Yun Ming licked his cracked lips unconsciously after hearing this. His eyes flickered and he said in a coquettish tone, "Third sister-in-law, I want to eat meat for lunch!"

"Eat!" Lin Yinan waved his hand, "Aunt Li, ask someone to call the man who is best at slaughtering pigs in the village to come back and help. We will eat the biggest pig at noon. It will be our first meal after we settle down here."

"Aunt, go to the storehouse and get some more rice, and then let everyone come together to eat."

Zhang nodded and responded, "Hey! I'll go right away."

Aunt Li and the two women put down their work and went in different directions to find people to kill the pig. Yunyan and the others quickly set up firewood and started a fire.

Everyone had left. Lin Yinan looked at the two young men covered in mud, with a hint of blame in his tone, "How did you get covered in mud? Are you hurt?"

Yun Ming and Yun Kang looked at each other and shook their heads.

Yun Ming grinned and said, "Don't worry, Third Sister-in-law, we are not hurt. We just fell into a mud pit when chasing the wild boar. Yun Kang is so stupid. I told him there was a mud pit, but he still jumped in."

Yunkang scratched his head embarrassedly. In all his years, he felt that today was the happiest day. He was running freely in the mountains and forests, working together with everyone to catch wild boars. This kind of happiness of being rewarded for hard work was something he had never experienced before.

Yunyan brought out two buckets of hot water from the kitchen. "The water is ready. You two should take it back quickly to wash and change clothes."

The two of them hurried forward to fetch water, and Yunyan forgot to remind them, "After washing your dirty clothes, put them away first and return the bucket."

"I understand, big sister." Yun Kang said with a smile.

The men who were called back put all their efforts into the slaughter. In less than half an hour, seven or eight men killed the largest pig. They separated the meat and bones, put the internal organs in a basin, and even scrubbed the large intestine clean with wood ash.

Lin Yinan moved a small stool and sat in the corridor to read. She remembered that in the time-travel novels she had read before, the heroines all made their fortunes by selling pig intestines. It was said that people in ancient times did not know that intestines were edible, which was complete bullshit.

Now the men were processing it. They even washed the pig's gallbladder and hung it up to be used by doctors Lu and Lin to make medicine.

If the wild boar's skin was not too thick and the hair could not be shed, they would be reluctant to peel it off.

The remaining pigs were slaughtered, cleaned and drained, then marinated with salt and placed in a large vat. They were then moved to a cooler warehouse and stored to be eaten later.

Zhang put the chopped bones into several large pots to cook bone porridge. When the porridge became thick, she poured in the chopped cauliflower.

Two large baskets of water chestnuts were peeled and cut into small pieces, then stir-fried with pork. When the dish was almost cooked, the picked wild onions were sprinkled in, and the whole county was suddenly filled with fragrance.

This attracted people who had just returned from work to gather in front of the simple stove shed and look around.

When the meal was ready, it was already past noon. To speed up the process, Zhang divided the meal into three windows. Everyone lined up consciously and took their own bowls, a large bowl of bone and wild vegetable porridge, and a bowl of fried pork with water chestnuts and wild onions.

There were some tables and chairs in the yard, but there were too many people and not enough. Some people squatted in the corner with their food and started eating. The secret guards and the Yun Mansion's men gathered together in groups of three or four to feast on the food.

The Yun Yu brothers also joined in the fun, not caring about being rude. They felt that the exquisite meals they had eaten in the Yun Mansion before could not compare to this one.

Lin Yinan, Old Lady Zhao, Li Shulan, the women and children of the Yun family sat at the same table, while Lin Zhiyan and Yun Fangyi obediently took the spoons and ate by themselves.

Looking outside, he didn't see the Yunye brothers coming back, so Lin Yinan asked Yun's mother, "Mom, why haven't Yunmo and second brother come back yet?"

Yunmu picked up a piece of meat from the bowl and put it into Lin Yinan and Lu Yashuang's bowls, and said with a smile, "Just now the secret guard came back and said that they went a long way and would not be back until the evening."

"Anan, eat more." Li Shulan picked up the big meat bone from her bowl and gave it to Lin Yinan.

"Mom, that's enough. You eat it. I'm almost full." Lin Yinan quickly stretched out his hand to stop her.

Li Shulan coaxed her, "Be good, just eat this piece."

In the open space outside the county government office.

Wu Xingwang asked the guards to set up a table and find a few benches to sit on, and the whole family sat around the table to eat.

The family of five enjoyed the meal to their heart's content. Wu Xingwang burped with satisfaction and said, "The government-run food is still the best!"

His wife Zhao rolled her eyes at him and mercilessly pointed out his mistake, "Is it because you don't have to pay?"

"You..." Wu Xingwang was speechless. His wife was good in every way except that she knew him too well.

Qian covered her mouth and chuckled, "Master, how about my wife and I find some work to do, otherwise we will have to cook for ourselves tomorrow."

"What can you two do? Can you farm?" Wu Xingwang knew that his wife and concubine were used to a life of luxury.

Zhao was furious. "If you don't find a job, what will happen to our house in the future? With so many people in the family, are we going to just sit there and eat up all the money?"

Qian patted Zhao and glanced at Wu Xingwang in dissatisfaction, "Look at what the master said, as if my sister and I can open our mouths to eat. Tomorrow I will ask Madam Yun. My sister and I can do these light jobs such as sewing and mending."

Wu Xingwang nodded and glanced at Wu Yao who was keeping her eyes down and silent. "You two take Yao'er with you."

Seeing Zhao's expression ease, Wu Xingwang continued, "I will be leaving tomorrow. Don't worry too much about the family's livelihood. We don't need so many mules. We can sell some to the Yun family when the time comes, so that we don't need people to take care of them."

"I will take some people out with me, and let them help build the house with the rest. We will build our own house with our own money. It will be bigger and made of better materials."
