The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

This bow is an old bow. It is said that it was brought back by Old Master Ling. Since there was only one, it was given to the old master when the family was divided. However, since the old master lived with the eldest son's family, the bow was naturally given to the eldest son's family in the end.

No one in the Ling family could use the bow to its full potential, so when Ling's mother went to borrow one, Ling's eldest uncle was somewhat reluctant, fearing that he might break it or hurt one of their own.

Ling's mother was quick-witted and managed to borrow it.

Du Mingxian took a bow into the mountains, but the bow her mother-in-law had borrowed was too old and couldn't be used too forcefully, otherwise it would break. She didn't dare to use it and put the bow into her spatial storage. She took the bow out of her storage space and observed it as she walked.

Whether it was true, as my second sister-in-law Zhou said, that she was the lucky one, or not, they hadn't gone far into the mountains when they saw a lone wild boar.

She was overjoyed and was about to hunt it down when she realized that there was still plenty of time and room in her spatial dimension. After hesitating for a moment, she flew forward and, before the wild boar could react, placed her hand on it and put it into her spatial dimension.

"Haha, this is such a pleasant surprise!" Du Mingxian was very happy.

She walked further in for quite a while and encountered two wild goats, which she then put back into her spatial storage.

She continued walking and making small movements, eventually hunting down two more wild boars before storing them in her spatial storage and heading back.

Once you're almost at the foot of the mountain, hide the wild boar, then head straight home to find someone.

When Ling's third aunt found out about Du Mingxian's trip into the mountains, she, who was just as fond of taking advantage as her daughter-in-law, came over to watch the show or wait to take advantage of the situation. In any case, she stayed and didn't leave.

Ling's mother didn't want to talk anymore, but Ling's third aunt was still talking. Every sentence she uttered didn't mention whether Du Mingxian could bring back any game, but every sentence implied that their family would get a share of the game, and that the bow belonged to the old man.

Just then, Du Mingxian returned, still holding the bow in her hand.

When Ling's mother saw her daughter-in-law return and found that she was alright, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that she's alright, I was so worried about her."

"Mother, don't worry, I'm fine."

"Hey, there's food in the kitchen, go eat."

Aunt Ling was not about to let this opportunity slip by. "Mingxian, did you hunt any game? Don't forget that bow belonged to your grandfather. Everyone should get a share of the game."

Du Mingxian's eyes flickered, and she raised the bow forward. "This bow is really useful. It's no wonder it was passed down from the older generation. Today, I hunted two wild boars with this bow."

"Really? You hunted another wild boar?" Aunt Ling felt a pang of envy.

The last time I heard about it was Du Mingxian who hunted a wild boar. Her second son's family sent over five jin (2.5 catties). If she hunts another one, wild boars in the mountains are so easy to hunt!

"Yes, we caught one, Mother. I can't get it down by myself, I need to find someone to carry it."

"Okay, you go in and have a bite to eat first, then let your older brother and the others go up the mountain with you to carry it."

Aunt Ling quickly grabbed Du Mingxian, "What are you waiting for? The important thing is to hurry up and bring the game down from the mountains. What if it gets eaten by other wild animals?"

"No, Mingxian hasn't eaten yet, let's eat first."

"Go and carry the prey first."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Du Mingxian quickly spoke up, "Mother, don't worry, I don't need to go with you. Father and my eldest brother know the place, it's the same place as last time. I'll go inside and eat first."

Du Mingxian didn't interfere with the matter of carrying the wild boar; several men from her family went, and Aunt Ling even ran back to call her husband.

The Ling family was a large family, and most of them were related by blood. Moreover, Ling's father had five brothers. With Ling's third aunt spreading the word, more and more people soon went into the mountains, and everyone went together to carry wild boars.

By the time the wild boar was brought back, Du Mingxian had already eaten.

There were many people helping to deal with the wild boar this time, because there were two. Ling's mother gave each family that came to help two catties. The families that came to help were only a few of Ling's father's brothers.

Aunt Ling was not entirely satisfied with the small amount of meat she received. She thought that she had been able to get five jin last time, and even though she had helped out this time, she hadn't received five jin.

"This time, the meat should be distributed to those who did the work; there might not be enough for so many people."

Aunt Ling wanted to say something more, but her eldest son pulled her away.

Ling's mother was truly speechless about her third brother's wife.

"Mother, is it necessary to invite everyone to a meal when we climb the roof beam?"

"Yes, that's how it's always been done in the surrounding villages."

Du Mingxian thought that cooking would be a hassle with so many people eating together.

“Mother, we’re still living in a shed, which is a hassle to build, and we don’t have a yard. Why don’t we divide the meat from those two wild boars among the people? That way, when they take the meat home, the elderly and children can all have a bite.”

“When we invite guests to cook, only the people who do the work get to eat. We have to work hard. It would be more convenient to just give them meat instead of cooking. What do you think?”

Ling's mother's eyes were bright.

“If we do this, our family will lose a lot of money. Even if we cook a whole pig to entertain guests, and they can eat their fill, it’s not fair to share it with everyone. Each family takes some back, but for us, we’re giving away more meat than we should,” Wang retorted.

Ling's mother glanced at Wang Shi and said to Du Mingxian, "Your idea is good."

Madam Wang complained, "Mother, you can't favor your fourth brother and his wife as well."

“Sister-in-law, when we host a dinner party, those who work can eat well. But if you put yourself in my shoes, if my brother went out to work, would you prefer him to bring back two pounds of meat so we can all eat together, or would you prefer him to stay at the host's house, eating a belly full of oil while the rest of the family gets nothing?”

Wang thought that she definitely hoped Ling Dalang would bring the meat back. No matter how much he could eat, it would at least satisfy his craving. If Ling Dalang ate it by himself, it would only be him eating it.

Du Mingxian added, "Although our family gets a lot of meat, the people who receive the meat are more grateful to us and work harder and faster, which saves us a lot of trouble. Overall, we are the ones who benefit and don't lose out at all."

"Is...is that so?" Wang asked, puzzled.

Ling's mother said, "Whether it's true or not, you'll know if you observe carefully these next two days."

Wang stopped speaking.

Ling's mother said, "I'll discuss this matter with your father again."

The final result was that on the day the roof beam was raised, everyone who did the work or came from the village to help received two catties of meat, but no meal was provided.

Everyone was extremely satisfied with the result, and their work speed increased significantly that day, with everyone working with great enthusiasm.

Some families came with several members, and they received even more meat.

The entire Ling family came out, and they got quite a lot of meat, which made Ling's third aunt extremely happy. On the way back, she kept muttering, "Second sister-in-law is really silly."

Uncle Ling: "..." He looked at his wife with complicated eyes. He hadn't thought anything of it before, but now he felt that his wife seemed a little silly.
