The most amusing aspect was that Ding Jinshan’s family, upon witnessing the wild boar and Qi’s consistent success in bringing home prey each year, found themselves reinvigorated with motivation.
Ding Jinshan approached Qi, inviting him to accompany him on a mountain trip and beseeching him to impart his archery skills.
Qi accepted the request.
However, after merely three days, Ding Jinshan relinquished his pursuit. He lacked experience and struggled to locate any targets. When Qi spotted an animal and instructed him to shoot, Ding Jinshan lacked the strength to draw the bowstring.
The substantial wild boar was shared among those who assisted in carrying it, as well as the second and third sections of the family. A generous portion was utilized to prepare a variety of dishes to be shared with the neighbors.
Nevertheless, there remained over 100 kg of meat.
Given the surplus smoked meat and sausages this year, there was no need to produce additional supplies. Instead, they could offer them as gifts during the New Year festivities, either before or after.
Ms. Fang suggested to Ms. Xu that they deliver the excess meat to her family as a gift.
Fortunately, Ms. Xu readily agreed.
Consequently, the next day, both Ms. Fang and Ms. Xu returned to their respective families.
Each family received 15 kg of wild boar meat, along with a few other items. The quantity was quite substantial.
Having developed a strong bond and cooperation, the first section of the family and Nis. Yan decided to present Ms. Yan’s family with 10 kg of the meat as a gift, as they maintained a good relationship and collaborated on various business ventures.
After a brief discussion, Qiao Xuan decided to share some of the wild boar meat with Manager Qin and Ding Erzhu from Zhang Village. Later, she took a moment to scoop some shrimp from the pond after inspecting the fields at
Zhang Village.
Qiao Xuan had no inclination to offer any gifts to the Qiao Family.
Likewise, Officer Qiao had no desire to receive any.
Since Yang Xiaoni had severed ties with Yang Liang, she felt no obligation to bring any presents for the New Year. Her focus was on having Shao Sanlang accompany her to visit her parents’ tomb and pay respects.
Someone happened to discover that the first section of the family had given Ms. Yan additional wild boar meat. This news left her feeling bitter and resentful.
Attempting to embarrass Ms. Yan, she put on a fake smile and spoke about it openly.
Ms. Yan was taken aback by the sudden revelation.
Ms. Niu, equally surprised, inquired, “Ms. Yan, is your Second Sister-in-law telling the truth?”
Ms. Yan, while inwardly sneering, openly admitted, “Yes, it’s true. Elder Aunt mentioned that my parents should also have a taste of it.”
“Fourth Sister-in-law, you certainly have your admirers, don’t you?” Ms.
Zhang sneered. “Even our mother doesn’t receive such honors.”
Ms. Yan responded quietly but firmly, “I’m not certain about that, but I often present Elder Aunt and her family with tofu, yubas, and dried tofu. It seems that Elder Aunt feels the need to reciprocate.”
Ms. Zhangs words trailed off as Ms. Niu, who was on the verge of anger, fell silent.
Indeed, Shao Silang often brought home tofu and yuba from work, much to Ms. Niu!s delight.
However, Shao Silang consistently emphasized that his in-laws insisted on sharing some with the first section of the family and some with the third section of the family.
While Ms. Niu disliked the idea of sharing, she couldn’t covertly claim them for herself when the Yan Family emphasized the first section’s entitlement.
Ultimately, when she already received her share, Ms. Niu decided to let go of her argument.
So when the Yan Family received wild boar meat from the first section of the family and requested her daughter-in-law to bring it over, what else could she say? Could she prevent her daughter-in-law from fulfilling her duties?
After all, it belonged to her in-laws!
Ms. Yan didn’t deliberately hide anything from her!
Moreover, both of her sons were employed at the Yan Family’s workshop!
While anger brewed within Ms. Niu, she glared at Ms.. Zhang and retorted, “Focus on your own meal! You keep causing trouble without knowing the full story! What are you trying to achieve?”
