I'm going to become rich after being dressed as a five-year-old woman
Chapter 9 Wild Boar Discovered
Although they were told not to cook for lunch, they had done heavy work all day and it would not be good not to eat something, so just eating the potatoes was enough.
You don't have to eat so much at night.
"Now that you're back, wash your hands."
Everyone was present, and Zhao Qiqi distributed potatoes to everyone. She herself did not eat any, as she felt that she had eaten a bit too much at lunch and was too full.
"Mom, don't you want to eat?"
Si Pang looked at the potatoes in front of him and wanted to taste them quickly, but he saw that there was nothing in front of Zhao Qiqi.
"Is mother not eating because she doesn't have enough?" Ersha asked.
Zhao Qiqi was so upset, it was just some potatoes, there was no need to be sentimental.
"No, Mom is full at noon. If you keep talking nonsense, you won't be able to eat." Zhao Qiqi warned him fiercely. She wanted them to boil water for her to take a bath as soon as possible.
After all, I work as a housekeeper and earn money and cook for them, so I should be able to enjoy some benefits.
Santu glanced at Zhao Qiqi, not knowing what he was thinking.
I can finally lie down in bed. Although it is definitely not comfortable compared to modern times, after a busy day, I just want to sleep as soon as I lie down.
Zhao Qiqi was half asleep and always felt there was a rustling sound outside. Could it be that the chickens from Aunt Li's house had run out?
She originally didn't want to pay attention to it, but the voice wouldn't stop.
Since no one else showed any sign of waking up, she decided to go and take a look.
Holding a candle, she could see clearly from a distance that it was a big black wild boar.
[Wild boar, 40 coins per pound]
Zhao Qiqi thought to herself that this was not good. No one else in the family showed any intention of waking up, so she had to find a solution on her own.
First retreat back into the house. If you are discovered by the wild boar, it may attack you.
The wild boar had already broken down the fence and was about to come in and dig up the vegetable patch.
【Buy a lighter for one cent】
She lit something and threw it together with the lighter into the pile of firewood that Sipang and Yunyun had picked up this afternoon.
The wild boar was afraid of fire and noise. When it saw the flames rising and burning more and more vigorously, it was frightened and fled in panic, bringing down several pieces of the fence as it ran.
Zhao Qiqi felt relieved a little and went back to bed and slept again until the rooster in Aunt Li's house next door crowed.
Dashuan got up first. When he saw the scene, his first reaction was that his house had been robbed.
This shouldn't be the case. Their house is so bare that one would not even bother to describe it, so how could there be thieves in it?
The brothers woke up and were also shocked. Who else in this village didn't know how poor their family was? Could they be from another village?
"A wild boar broke into our yard yesterday and damaged the fence."
Several people showed expressions of realization, fortunately they were not robbed.
"Dashuan, Ersha, go to the mountain and cut some bamboo." After thinking for a while, Zhao Qiqi added, "Don't get too close, just cut at the foot of the mountain."
Hu Lan cooked porridge and Zhao Qiqi gave her a bag of rice.
Si Pang was making a fire while Yunyun went to clean up the pile of ashes that Zhao Qiqi had made last night.
Santu understood what Zhao Qiqi meant and followed her into her room.
"Mom, do you want to?"
Zhao Qiqi nodded: "I guess you have seen the situation in the fields. Without water, the rice seeds are very small inside and cannot grow at all."
"I just don't know how big this wild boar is?"
"It's hard to see clearly in the dark, but I think he weighs about 200 kilograms."
Seeing such a big wild boar, and its strong fighting ability, Santu was a little hesitant.
"If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to accumulate more money and stock up on rice, when there is really no rice on the market, the price of rice will definitely go up day by day."
Their land is not good to begin with, it is dry land, and even under normal circumstances it may not be enough, let alone in a famine year like now.
"Mom, I'll listen to you, but we need to make more preparations."
Zhao Qiqi knew that Santu was a thoughtful child who often went up the mountain to hunt and had some tools in his hands.
Just do it.
After Dashuan and Ersha came back, they put a large bundle of bamboo on the ground, which made a dull sound when it fell to the ground.
"not enough."
The second fool was puzzled: "Third brother, are you planning to build a house? These bamboos are more than enough to repair the damaged fences."
"If it were just this, it would be enough, but we also need tools for hunting wild boars."
Dashuan first widened his eyes, then looked at Zhao Qiqi, and asked Zhao Qiqi to take care of him. His mother hadn't done bamboo weaving for a few days, and this kid's mind had become so wild. His mother was right, he would only be obedient if he was beaten.
Wild boars are so ferocious and powerful. If they get angry, they can kill a grown man with one rush. Are you kidding me, third brother?
Receiving Dashuan's gaze, Zhao Qiqi was not panicked at all, and said in a very oppressive tone: "I asked him to do it, and you have a problem with it."
Dashuan wanted to cry but had no tears. Why was his mother still so willful? "Mom, this is not a joke. It could kill people."
"Why are you so anxious? Since we are going to do it, we must make full preparations."
Zhao Qiqi glared at him, and Hu Lan came up and grabbed him to stop him from talking back.
"Husband, you'd better go cut the bamboo quickly and don't make mother angry."
Dashuan and Ersha went to the foot of the mountain to cut bamboo again.
Looking at Santu's actions, Zhao Qiqi understood that he wanted to sharpen the bamboo into a sharp point, dig a hole and stick the bamboo in it, then lure the wild boar over.
"Dashuan's wife, come over and cut some bamboo. Sipang and Yunyun, go collect firewood."
The two children are still young, so I don’t feel comfortable letting them do something like operating with a knife.
He took out a long bamboo and first split it into two halves with a knife. The recoil was so strong that Zhao Qiqi felt his hand going numb.
The original body didn't work much at all, so it was normal for her to not be used to such intensity.
Zhao Qiqi first used a knife to grind a mark on the bamboo, then put the knife into the groove. She held the bamboo in one hand and the knife in the other, and cut it with force on her right hand. The bamboo also pressed against the ground, and the tip of the bamboo was cut out. She learned this from watching Santu.
This was not enough. After getting the bamboo, Santu trimmed the new bamboo brought back by Dashuan and Ersha, and tied it with ropes and knives. Naturally, they did not dare to confront the wild boar head-on, but they still had to be prepared for self-defense.
With huge benefits come huge risks.
Hu Lan, Sipang and Yunyun stayed at home to repair the fence, while Zhao Qiqi took the others and their tools up the mountain.
Although it is summer now, there is little rain, making it difficult to find traces of wild boars. Yesterday she saw the wild boar go up the mountain with her own eyes.
"Look carefully for any wild boar footprints. Each of you should take a spear and run down the mountain if you find anything wrong."
If the wild boars are not killed, it will be difficult for them to find food in the mountains in the future.
