Chen Yuan hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Auntie doesn't need so much."

Chen Zhiqiang put down the pipe in his hand and said, "Take it. It's enough for your aunt and me."

Seeing the two people's firm attitude, if Chen Yuan didn't accept it, it would be ignorant of his own accord.

"Uncle, aunt. I'll take it then. When I catch some game, I'll send it to you. Please keep it, or I won't dare to come and exchange it for food again!"

He Chunhua smiled with wrinkles on her face and nodded in agreement.

……

When Chen Yuan left Chen Zhiqiang's house, he happened to meet Aunt Wang from the same village.

"Hey, Chen Yuan, did you just come out of Chen Zhiqiang's house?"

Chen Yuan nodded and didn't want to talk to Aunt Wang.

There are always a few gossipers in this village. They are always the first to know if something happens in someone else's family.

Aunt Wang Er is the most powerful one among the group and is nicknamed "Big Loudspeaker".

Aunt Wang Er obviously didn't care about Chen Yuan's attitude. There was nothing she couldn't ask to get the answer.

"You're carrying such a big snakeskin bag in your hand. What's in it?"

Chen Yuan stopped and said, "I'm borrowing food. If your aunt has extra food, could you lend me some?"

Aunt Wang smiled awkwardly, "I have a big family and no food, hahaha!"

After saying that, he walked away with the wind at his feet.

Chen Yuan curled the corners of his lips. If he wanted to avoid this group of people, he had to be more shameless than them.

I guess the word will spread in the village tomorrow that the Chen family gave him too little food, so his family has no food to eat and can only come out to borrow.

……

When I got home, Sun Weiwei was sewing a quilt on the kang. When Chen Yuan went up the mountain, she took apart the quilt and washed the outer cloth.

The kang was so hot that it was almost dry in a few hours.

Looking at the heartwarming scene in front of him, a word flashed through Chen Yuan's mind. Isn't this: a wife, children and a warm bed!

The wooden box brought from Chen's house was at the end of the kang, filled with clothes.

After Chen Yuan warmed up for a while, he started rummaging through the box and found a short, small, khaki sweater at the bottom of the box.

This sweater was given to Chen Yuan by an old lady in the village who took pity on him and gave it to him as a sweater that her son no longer wanted.

Chen Yuan also picked up old sweaters left by others and wore them for many years.

"Honey, when you have time, please help me turn this sweater into a pair of gloves!"

"I'll take this sweater apart once I finish sewing the quilt."

Chen Yuan touched the sweater, his heart filled with strange emotions, and it took him a long time to calm down.

"Don't worry, my cotton gloves are still usable."

Sun Weiwei shook her head. "You're always running in the mountains. It's cold outside. Don't freeze yourself."

Chen Yuan suddenly wanted to tease Sun Weiwei, so he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Why, are you worried because I'm freezing?"

As he spoke, Chen Yuan blew a breath, and Sun Weiwei's face turned red with embarrassment.

Chen Yiyi came close to the two of them, patted her chest, and said innocently, "Daddy, Yiyi feels sorry for you! Yiyi feels sorry for you, Daddy!"

Chen Yuan took his daughter's hand and held the little girl in his arms.

"You're really Daddy's little cotton-padded jacket."

The days are short in winter. It’s just after four o’clock when it gets dark outside.

Sun Weiwei got up and went downstairs to heat the kang. Heating the kang at this time would keep it warm until morning.

She put down the wooden chair, sat by the stove and took off her sweater by the firelight.

I took apart the old sweater today and will boil it in a pot tomorrow. After it dries, I can roll it into a ball of yarn again and use it to knit things.

Chen Yiyi pestered Chen Yuan to tell her a story.

"Daddy, Yiyi wants to hear a story."

Chen Yuan thought about it and decided to tell Yi Yi the story of Journey to the West.

"Once upon a time, there was a magical stone. Suddenly one day, a monkey jumped out of the stone..."

Chen Yuan was getting into the swing of things when he suddenly heard shouts coming from outside.

"what!"

"Something happened! Something happened!"

……

After a while, the village chief knocked on the door with a gloomy face.

"Second brother, are you asleep?"

Chen Yuan quickly put on his clothes and walked to the door, pulling out the wooden bar blocking the door.

"What's wrong, Uncle Chen? Why do I hear shouting in our village in the middle of the night?"

Chen Zhide didn't have time to explain to Chen Yuan. He just said in a commanding tone: "Take your hunting rifle and follow me. There's something wrong in the village."

After hearing this, Chen Yuan didn't hesitate. He took his hunting rifle and went out with the village chief.

Before leaving, he reminded Sun Weiwei, "Lock the door. Don't open it until I come back. Do you hear me?"

Without waiting for Sun Weiwei's reaction, he and the village chief walked towards the village one after another.

"Just now, a wild boar ran down from the mountain and rushed into the Sun family's yard. It scared the old Sun family's wife so much that she had a miscarriage."

Chen Yuan was obviously stunned after hearing this. Could it be that his premonition in the afternoon was correct?

The village chief saw Chen Yuan stop and asked with some confusion, "What's wrong?"

Chen Yuan shook his head and replied, "Nothing serious, let's go check it out."

"Okay, you go first if you're quick. I can't walk fast on this slippery road."

"That beast hasn't been caught yet. A bunch of big and strong men didn't dare to step forward to catch it. They just ate the food!"

The village chief got angry when he talked about this. Just now, a group of men surrounded the wild boar and dared not move forward, allowing the wild boar to break through the encirclement.

There was no other way, the village chief could only come to Chen Yuan in person and ask Chen Yuan to use a hunting rifle to solve this problem.

……

At the same time, in Chenjia Village.

The wild boar went crazy, desperately trying to break through the wooden wall of the Sun family's courtyard and ran towards the Chen family.

Old Mrs. Sun sat on the ground and cried loudly. What sin had their Sun family committed? Her precious grandson was gone just like that!

The cries and discussions mixed together made the Sun family courtyard noisy.

At this time, the Chen family was in chaos.

Zhang Guixiang came out to watch the fun, but unexpectedly the wild boar went crazy and charged towards her!

An old lady was no match for the wild boar and retreated in fear.

Chen Shan wanted to go forward to save people, but was pulled back by Li Qinfen.

"Chen Shan, are you crazy? That wild boar went crazy and hit people. Are you going to die?"

After hearing this, Chen Shan paused and stopped moving forward.

Li Qinfen and a few others were so scared that they hid in the house and dared not come out, leaving Zhang Guixiang alone in the yard.

When Zhang Guixiang saw the wild boar running towards her, she was so scared that she collapsed to the ground, her eyes went dark and she fainted.

When the wild boar saw Zhang Guixiang fainted, it changed direction and rushed towards the door of the main house. However, Li Qinfen, who was hiding in the main house, had no way to deal with the wild boar.

Chen Yuan looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

If it were in the past, he would definitely rush out and rescue Zhang Guixiang back to the house at all costs, and then go out alone to fight the wild boar.

When Chen Yuan thought of this, he wanted to slap himself twice.

Why was he so stupid before? He worked wholeheartedly for the Chen family, but in the end he didn't get any good results!

If he had known that the Chen family would be the victim, he would not have left so quickly!
