After my stepmother was shot, I took my brothers to the countryside

When Shen Nian'an returned home, Shen Nianle had already drunk the medicine Shen Nian made and fell asleep. Shen Nian stayed by his side, fearing that Shen Nianle would have a fright reaction if he fell into the water.

Seeing Shen Nian'an come back, Shen Nian asked him what happened today.

Shen Nian'an hesitantly said, "Today we went to the mountains to pick wild pears. On the way back, Xiaole slipped and fell into the river. I wanted to save Xiaole, but I'm not a good swimmer. Goudan's mother happened to see us, so she went to find Uncle Gu to save Xiaole."

Shen Nian rubbed her forehead. Both brothers couldn't swim. The last time Zhang Fengfeng jumped into the river reminded her of this.

There are two rivers in Shuangxi Brigade. After work, she would take the two brothers to the river and teach them how to swim. She did not ask them to save others, but only hoped that they could save themselves.

She has been very busy recently and has little time to practice, and she also told the Shen Nian'an brothers that they cannot learn without her knowledge.

The two brothers were not skilled enough and fell into the river. In their panic, they probably forgot how to swim.

"You have to ensure your own safety before you can save others. If you can't even guarantee your own safety, how can you save others, right? In this situation, just shout for help."

"It's okay. It was my negligence this time. I will continue to teach you how to swim after the busy farming season is over." Shen Nian sighed. The road to raising her younger brother is long and arduous.

Shen Nian'an looked at his sister. He originally thought he would be scolded.

Shen Nian stood up and took some coarse grains to him: "Xiao An, take it to the brigade. We will have a big pot meal there today, so we won't be eating at home tonight."

Shen Nian'an took the food and went to the team.

Wild boar meat takes a long time to stew, so the team leader asked the aunts who helped with cooking to stay and the other members went back to work.

Every family grows a lot of vegetables during this season. It is so hard to have a good meal. In order to ensure that everyone has a full meal, every family brings a lot of vegetables, and the amount of food is also based on the number of people in the family.

The aunts stewed several large pots of soup with wild boar bones and radishes, cleaned the pig's internal organs and cut them into small pieces, then threw them into the bone soup when it was done, and added vegetables just before serving, making a hodgepodge of stews.

The remaining pork was also stewed with a lot of potatoes until it was soft.

Anyway, not to waste any bit of oil and water.

The aroma of the wild boar meat soup cooked by the aunts filled every corner of the brigade.

The workers are working even faster! They finish their work early, get in line early, and eat early.

Those who finished first have already rushed home to get their bowls! Line up by yourself, get your own bowl, and don't even think about asking others to fill it for you.

As the team leader rang the gong to signal the end of work, the members flocked to the team like a tide.

They know that they have to queue up and get their own bowls. The running figures and hurried footsteps are all the desire and respect for food of people in this era.

The children stood in one line, the elderly stood in one line, the women stood in one line, and the rest stood in one line. Every member had an excited smile on his face.

Seeing that most people had arrived, the team leader began to speak: "The reason we can eat pork today is all because of the educated youth Shen Nian, who fought bravely alone.

Not only did it protect the food and property safety of our team, but it also protected our personal safety. This meal should be credited to the educated youth Shen Nian!

The team has decided to reward Shen Nian, the educated youth, with 20 kilograms of food! Everyone should line up according to the old rules! Eat well, drink well, and continue to fight for our future!

"Great!" the crowd cheered!

Shen Nian was assigned by the team leader to make porridge. She didn't have any special thoughts at first, until the children and the members...

"Thank you, Sister Shen!"

"Thank you, Sister Shen, for hunting down that big wild boar!"

"Shen Zhiqing, thank you so much! If it weren't for you, we would have to wait until Chinese New Year to eat meat again."

"Shen Zhiqing! You're amazing!"

……

Shen Nian… was numb! To think she would refuse even if beaten to death, her face was frozen with laughter.

Shen Nian looked at the captain, and the captain reflexively took a few steps into the crowd.

Shen Nian was speechless. She couldn't possibly beat him like she would a wild boar!

Zhao Xue, standing in the queue, looked at Shen Nian. She was filled with relief. It seemed that Shen Nian hadn't hit her hard before! Otherwise, she would have become the meat on the chopping board! How could she still be waiting in line for meat?

Zhang Fengfeng also stared at Shen Nian, but she couldn't see anything special about Shen Nian. It seemed that he was just an educated youth from the city who was quite strong and fierce.

Shen Nian felt the gazes of others on her, but she didn't care. After today's wild boar hunting incident, she would probably become a celebrity in the team.

In the future, everyone might look up to her a little and think that she is not easy to mess with. That's also good. After all, she is a girl with two younger brothers. In case there are any ignorant people, it would be best if she can get along well with the people in the team.

After getting their meal, everyone didn’t go home to eat. Instead, they found an open space and sat together in groups of three or five, chatting and laughing while eating.

This was the best meal everyone had had since the autumn harvest, and everyone cherished it very much.

Shen Nian saw Aunt Zhang coming over and quickly called her, "Aunt Zhang! Come and help me make porridge!"

Aunt Zhang quickly shook her head: "What help do you need? I asked the team leader for this job specifically for you!"

Shen Nian... She wondered how the captain could come up with such a dirty trick, so she could only bite the bullet and continue fighting.

In the end, the captain's wife couldn't stand it anymore and asked her own daughter-in-law to replace her.

Shen Nian quickly slipped away with the food prepared by the captain in advance and came to the door of the cowshed.

"Uncle Gu! Is Uncle Gu here?"

When Gu Jianhua came out, he saw a thin little girl standing outside the courtyard gate carrying a large bamboo basket.

Everyone in the cowshed heard about Shen Zhiqing killing a wild boar today, and they were discussing it. They also knew that the team was eating from the same pot, but that had nothing to do with them.

"Shen Zhiqing, is there anything wrong?" Gu Jianhua said softly.

"The team is hunting wild boars today, and we're having a big pot meal. I'll bring your portion over! And your portion of wild boar meat!" Shen Nian looked at Gu Jianhua with a smile.

Gu Jianhua was stunned for a moment, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally opened the gate.

Shen Nian walked in with the basket on his back, and found that the cowshed only had two rooms besides the place where the cows were kept.

Shen Nian looked at Gu Jianhua behind him. Gu Jianhua pointed to the house on the left, and Shen Nian walked straight in.

The people inside were stunned when they saw the person coming in. Although people often came to their cowshed, no one was ever willing to step into their house. Most of them just shouted at the gate and then left in a hurry.

Shen Nian looked at the people sitting on the kang and greeted them with a smile: "Hello, grandparents, uncles and aunts!"

"Our team hunted a wild boar today, so we're having a big pot meal together. The team leader asked me to bring your portion over for you!"

Shen Nian put down the backpack. These were all people affected by the times. They should have been working hard in the jobs they loved and dedicated themselves to, but now they were abandoned by the times.

"Shen Zhiqing, thank you." Gu Jianhua's voice trembled a little. He had only been here for a year, but his parents and wife had already lost a lot of weight. With endless farm work to do every day, he didn't know if he could survive this year.

"Uncle Gu, you're welcome! I should be the one thanking you! Thank you for saving Xiaole today!" Shen Nian quickly replied.

Shen Nian laid out the food one by one: "Everyone, eat it while it's hot! Although this is wild boar meat, the aunts in the team have stewed it until it's soft, so grandpa and grandma can eat it too."

Shen Nian turned around and looked at Gu Jianhua: "Uncle Gu, you guys eat, I'll come to see you when I have time."

After saying this, she said hello to the people on the kang and left the cowshed. She had been thinking about how to help these people who were just temporarily in a low point.

Now that he had killed a wild boar and solved two of his worries, Shen Nian happily went home and into the space to have a big meal.

The people in the cowshed looked at the food in front of them silently, with unspeakable emotions in their eyes.

In the end, they all picked up their bowls because they really needed it.
