God-given mother: The villain cub is super clingy

Chapter 16 Even if it is a monster, I will accept it

"Of course it will work!"

"There's just one thing. We don't have much food at home, so we have to trade this wild boar meat with the villagers."

"That's no problem! Big sister! I'll take care of it. Tomorrow I'll go to the village and tell you, whoever wants meat can bring some grain in exchange. One pound of meat for two pounds of coarse grains, how's that?"

Liu Zhenzhu's reaction was also very quick. She was indeed a family member. She took the job upon herself in just a few words! She even changed her words and called the eldest sister!

Lin Yue didn't know what the prices were like. After hearing what Liu Zhenzhu said, she thought that pork was twice as expensive as coarse grains, otherwise she wouldn't have said something like one pound of meat for two pounds of coarse grains. Considering that she still needed to maintain good relationships with the villagers, she decided to take a loss.

"One pound for one pound! After all, it's food. Coarse grains, old rice, old flour, daily necessities, those are fine. If you don't have food, you can use money. How about thirty coins for a pound of meat?"

Anyway, she still had a wild boar meat in her space. Even if she exchanged all the meat for food and money, she would still have meat to eat.

Liu Zhenzhu looked at her as if she were a fool.

"Thirty cents? Sister, pork in town sells for forty cents a pound! Even lean pork costs thirty-five cents. Meat is more valuable than grain. Why don't we farmers eat meat? Isn't it because we can't afford it? You're losing out!"

Liu Zhenzhu thought to herself, is Lin Yue still mentally unstable? Ten cents are missing from one pound!

Lin Yue couldn't be allowed to suffer too much. Most of the villagers ate vegetable porridge and black steamed buns made of sorghum flour. Those who were better off would also eat some noodles. Stir-fried dishes and stews were only available during festivals.

But then she thought again: Lin Yue's background was unknown. She might have come from a wealthy family and didn't understand the hardships of life! The more she thought about it, the more she thought that was the case! Suddenly, the look in her eyes when she looked at Lin Yue changed!

Lin Yue: That was careless!

She didn't know yet that Liu Zhenzhu had already imagined a lot of things on her own!

Lin Yue knew she was overthinking it as soon as she saw her expression, so she quickly added.

"I was taken care of by the villagers before. We rarely eat meat once a year, so we don't have to pay the market price. If you think I'm being unfairly treated, just tell them that vegetables and daily necessities are fine. You can see that this family is short of everything."

"Oh! Big sister, now I understand what you said! Don't worry, I will make it clear to the villagers that this wild boar meat is half bought and half given away to satisfy everyone's cravings. You are doing the villagers justice! I don't think anyone dares to say anything!"

Lin Yue didn't quite understand these social ways, but Liu Zhenzhu knew them very well. She was also impressed by her man's foresight. Someone like Lin Yue, who was so honest and had good skills, should not be bullied and should be respected!

"Okay, it's settled! Big sister, you're in charge of lunch, so you need someone to cook, right? My cooking skills aren't very good, so I can only help out. The old clan leader's sister Donglian is quite skilled, and there's also sister Sufen from Fourth Grandpa's family. How about I talk to them and ask them to help with the cooking?"

Lin Yue felt a little worried when she thought about it. It was impossible for her to cook a big pot meal, and she had to find two people to help cook. There was not even an iron pot in the kitchen at home. What should she do?

Liu Zhenzhu knew the reason as soon as she saw her expression.

"Don't worry, big sister. If there's anything missing in the kitchen, we have it at home. Take it over first. I'll borrow a big pot. We'll set up a big stove in the yard tomorrow and prepare everything in advance. On the day we start work, I guarantee that the meal will be ready for you."

"The bowl for eating..."

Liu Zhenzhu waved her hand. She knew at a glance that Lin Yue was really inexperienced. She didn't act arrogantly and told the truth.

"That's okay. Everyone who comes to eat brings their own bowls and chopsticks. This is what happens when people in the village have an event! We help each other and it's lively!"

Lin Yue finally understood that when one family has problems, hundreds of families come to help, and this is a situation that only happens in rural areas.

"Okay, in that case, I'll trouble you, sister-in-law! You and Changgen should help us, and then we can let Daqing and Erqing have dinner here together."

Liu Zhenzhu did not refuse and agreed generously.

Daqing and Erqing, who were standing by, also heard this and quickly stepped forward to express their opinions.

"Auntie, we can help with some chores! It's not like we're eating for free."

Lin Yue smiled and nodded. Liu Changgen's family was becoming more and more interesting. Although they had a reputation as scoundrels, the couple was smart and efficient, one of them was quick and decisive, and they did things in an organized manner!

Even these two children look much pleasing to the eye than yesterday!

"Big sister, let's go first! Come back tomorrow morning! Daqing and Erqing! Let's go home!"

The family left happily. Before leaving, the four men kept their promise and left two fish in the bucket for them to take away!

"Mom! You're so awesome! Did you fight all these?"

After everyone had left, Erlang excitedly went forward to touch the wild boar, and looked at the pheasants and rabbits on the ground. He had been hungry every day before, but in just a few days, there was only so much meat at home, and he still had to repair the house!

It makes me excited just thinking about it. This is all thanks to my mother’s transformation! Even if it’s a monster, he would accept it!

Dalang was actually very excited, but he pretended to be calm. His family needed to renovate the house, and he and the other four Langs could not help much, so they could only follow the villagers and help out.

"Are you all hungry? How about we make fish soup tonight? And heat up some meat patties?"

Lin Yue was also hungry at this time. She had only eaten some compressed biscuits all day. Seeing the fresh fish, she naturally wanted to comfort her stomach.

"Great! There's fish and meat!"

Jiro cheered happily.

Lin Yue did what she said. She caught two fish and went to the kitchen, where she saw the things that Dalang and the others had exchanged in the afternoon, as well as an egg, which she probably kept for herself. The peaches were gone, and they probably didn't want to eat them.

"Da Lang, I picked a few peaches. If you're hungry, wash them and fill your stomachs."

Dalang responded and went into the house to see that there were indeed some peaches in the basket. He picked up a few that looked relatively green and asked Erlang and Sanlang to take them to the blind grandmother. He had to keep his promise. The family would start repairing the house tomorrow, and it was estimated that the family would not be able to go up the mountain for several days.

Erlang ran fast and came back soon. The four Langs surrounded the wild boar in the yard, looking left and right, and even touching it.

"Wow! This wild boar's hair is so tough!"

Even Shiro rarely said "It pricks my hand!"

"This must be a lot of pounds, right?"

Dalang estimated the weight of the wild boar. He wanted to calculate whether it was enough to distribute to the workers and to exchange for food. However, he found that it was beyond his understanding and could only give up silently!

After a tiring day, Lin Yue washed up casually after dinner and went to bed with the four men. Dalang was worried that the wild boar would be stolen if left in the yard, or that it would attract wild animals in the mountains, so he secretly discussed with the four men and the four of them took turns guarding it.

Lin Yue was so sleepy that she fell asleep as soon as she lay down. She was completely unaware of the four men's actions. Fortunately, she had a peaceful night.
