I will lead the whole village to occupy the land and become the king.
Chapter 40 Another Trouble
In Dingshui Village, Grandpa Jiang, Chen Shao and others worked together to process the prey they brought back. The skin was the skin, the meat was the meat, and even the tiger bones were peeled off intact.
At first, everyone was immersed in the excitement of suddenly obtaining such a large amount of meat, but as the prey was processed, some people started to make trouble.
Today's work was done by everyone working together in a division of labor, organized and arranged by Meng, Grandpa Jiang, and Chen Shao, who are now influential people in the village.
It was not until the afternoon of the second day after Zheng San and his team left that they had finally dealt with everything.
Mrs. Wang and several other maids were responsible for processing the furs. By the time they finished, it was dark.
"Zheng San and his group went into the mountains yesterday. I wonder if they met the village chief and his group?"
"Don't worry, we've all walked this road before, and there's someone to lead the way, so there will definitely be no problem."
"Haha, I'm glad you're alright. I'm just looking forward to the village chief and the others coming back soon so they can distribute food and meat to us..."
After hearing what the other maids said, Mrs. Wang's eyes began to turn restlessly.
The water from the several wells in the village is not enough for them. Some of the water was used up in processing the prey today, and it is not known how much water will be distributed the day after tomorrow. She still thinks they should escape the famine.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang said goodbye to the others and went home first.
When she got home, Wang Quezi was still sleeping soundly in the house, and his snoring almost blew the roof off.
"Master, get up quickly," Mrs. Wang gave him a strong push, "I have something to tell you."
Wang Cuzi was sleeping in a daze. When he opened his eyes and saw Wang Pozi's old face, he got up in a rage.
He suddenly stood up and pushed Mrs. Wang out with his hand. "I haven't slept well in a few days, and this is how you treat me, you stinky bitch?"
Fortunately, Mrs. Wang was not pushed to the ground by him. She managed to keep her footing. Just when she was about to get angry, she suddenly remembered the important matter and had to suppress her anger temporarily.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, but boss, is it true what you said before that I could give you a whole sheep this time?" asked Mrs. Wang with shining eyes.
Wang Quezi scratched his hair and saw a louse when he took his hand off. He pinched it to death and blew a breath, "The village chief only said that I would be rewarded for good performance. Didn't I work hard to earn good performance? It's you, a stinky woman, who's holding me back. What do you think..."
"Alright, alright, don't talk about the past for now," Mrs. Wang interrupted him quickly. "Didn't you behave quite well this time? You went down the mountain to deliver the message, and you helped to process the game during the day. You did a lot of work in the mountains, didn't you?"
"Well," Wang Quezi's eyes flickered and dodged, "Of course I performed very well!"
In fact, he didn't help much with the work in the mountains. He always ran away to the toilet when he was asked to weave a net. When Jiang Qinyu and others were hunting wild goats and tigers, he hid behind them and watched in the chaos, not daring to come forward.
Moreover, he came back to report the news because he didn't want to put in the effort to carry the prey. In short, if all this was seen by others, his performance would definitely not be considered good.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang clapped her hands and said, "Then let's go get our sheep now and leave tomorrow to escape the famine!"
"What?" Wang Quezi scratched his ears. "Why are you fleeing famine again?"
Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes at him and said, "You really can't let go of our daughter? They haven't been gone for long. Let's take less stuff and drive the mule cart after them. We should be able to catch up."
All in all, the people in Xiahe Village had only been walking for six days, and few families in their village had cars. But his family had two mules, so they would definitely be able to catch up.
"Are you crazy? We have food in our village now, and we have found water in the mountains. Why should we waste our energy fleeing the famine?" Wang Quezi looked at her in disbelief.
When Mrs. Wang saw him like this, she immediately realized that this old man didn't want to leave, so she sat down on the ground and started crying.
"Wow, wow, wow... Why am I so miserable? I married a lazy bastard like you! I worked hard all my life, gave birth to three sons for you, and only had a daughter when I was old. Now my daughter and her family are gone, and they've taken my life with them!"
Of Wang Po's three sons, the eldest and the second were forcibly conscripted by the government along with Lu Yanzheng six years ago. There is only one youngest son in the family, who got married last year and has no children yet.
Wang Po's youngest daughter was born when she was 35 years old. At that age, she was considered an old girl, and she was especially favored since she was a child.
Moreover, Wang Po almost died during childbirth of her youngest daughter, so she doted on this daughter excessively.
When Wang Quezi heard what Wang Po said, his brain was about to explode. But although he was a ruthless man, he still had some feelings and knew that if it weren't for Wang Po, he wouldn't be where he is today.
Mrs. Wang was still crying. After thinking it over, Wang Quezi finally agreed, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. Let's go and escape the famine!"
"Then I'll go talk to the Ma and Deng families right away. They want to leave too!" Mrs. Wang immediately stood up and turned back to Wang Quezi before leaving. "Go find the village chief's wife and ask for something. I'll meet you there later!"
They had already prepared to flee the famine, and all the things in their house were packed up and not unpacked yet. As long as they got the meat, they could set off immediately the next day.
……
Mrs. Meng had never expected that Wang Quezi would want to divide the meat in advance. After hearing his intention, she was a little confused. "Didn't my husband say that we would divide it after he comes back? If nothing unexpected happens, they will be back tomorrow."
She didn't care whether the Wang family was going to flee the famine or not. She felt that their current life was full of hope. They had food to eat and knew where to find water. Only a fool would leave their hometown and flee the famine.
"Aren't we planning to flee the famine tomorrow? You know my daughter is married in Xiahe Village. Her mother and I are really worried. If we go too late, we're afraid we won't be able to catch up with them." Wang Quezi spoke politely.
Mrs. Meng didn't dare to agree easily and quickly shook her head. "My boss is not here, so I can't make this decision. You should wait until they come back tomorrow!"
"No, village chief's wife, why are you being unreasonable? If we don't leave tomorrow, we won't be able to catch up with my daughter!" Wang Quezi was anxious and subconsciously took two steps forward.
Meng took a step back and said, "What are you doing? It's not that I don't want to give you a share, it's that I can't make the decision and I don't know how much to give you..."
"The village chief said that when we divide up a sheep, you can't lose a single hair from us!"
At this time, Mrs. Wang suddenly came in with two maids from the Ma and Deng families.
Meng was stunned when she heard this. "Give away a sheep? Impossible!"
"How is that impossible?" Mrs. Wang put her hands on her hips. "That's what the village chief said himself!"
"Who the hell said that? I don't admit it!"
Just when Mrs. Meng didn't know what to do, the voice of Village Chief Li came from the yard.
