Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

Chapter 45 I don’t want to separate the family anymore [Additional updates, please read later]

"Nothing, we have no intention of targeting you, Carpenter Liang."

Father Lin heard what Carpenter Liang said and quickly explained.

"Yes, you misunderstood, we are not talking about you." Mother Lin also said with a smile.

Carpenter Liang waved his hand, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Whether you are talking about me or not, it is indeed my problem. I will make amends to you."

"Let's weigh it and see how much it weighs." Father Lin quickly avoided the topic and went back to the house to get the steel scale.

In the bedroom, Xiulan was wiping Lin Heng's back with a hot towel. When she heard the noise outside, Lin Heng couldn't help but smile: "Carpenter Liang is quite a figure."

"Keep your voice down." Xiulan reminded.

Lin Heng lifted his wife's chin and said with a smile, "Your husband must be awesome today."

"Awesome, you are the best." Xiulan rolled her eyes at him, pushed his hand away, and wiped his back.

After changing into clean clothes, Lin Heng walked out of the bedroom to see Father Lin and the others calling pig badgers.

"Twenty-four pounds, amazing!"

Seeing Lin Heng come out, Lin's father looked at Cheng Xi and said with a smile.

"Second Dad, how did you hit such a big pig badger? You're so awesome."

The eldest nephew Lin Wei has already worshiped Lin Heng like an idol, which is simply amazing.

"Yes, Lin Heng, how did you hit him?" Mother Lin and others were also extremely curious.

"Let's eat first. I'm going to starve to death. Let's talk while eating." Lin Heng looked at the crowd and said.

This is natural. When the meal was served, Lin Heng first took a big mouthful of cold vegetables.

After eating, he opened his mouth and told the whole process of his hunting.

It was similar to what he said to Xiulan. He was not bragging too much. He knew that going too far was not enough.

"I'm convinced. You have nothing to say about your bow and arrow. You can shoot accurately at forty paces. Uncle, I apologize for my previous attitude. I've finished this cup."

Carpenter Liang shook his head, smiled bitterly, picked up the wine glass and drank the sweet wine in one gulp.

"Uncle Liang, you are joking. I am so young. It is normal for you to think that I should study more."

Lin Heng was not such a fussy person, so he also drank a drink.

"Drink some of this."

Xiulan came over and sat down next to him, handing him a bowl of ginger soup.

"Pure ginger soup!" Lin Heng took a sip and found it a bit hard to swallow.

"You're not a child, and you still want candy from him." Xiulan glanced at him.

Lin Heng stopped talking and drank the ginger soup in one gulp.

Sometimes I often get confused. After thinking about it carefully, I remember that in this era, gifts are usually half a pack of sugar and a few kilograms of rice.

At the dinner table, Lin Heng became the well-deserved protagonist because of this pig badger.

Sister-in-law Liu Juan smiled and poured Lin Heng a glass of wine. At this moment, his reputation as a second-rate son really began to be washed away in this family.

After dinner, the rain became heavier. Lin Heng walked into the kitchen and looked at the pig badger on the ground and said with a smile, "Dad, you and my brother can help skin it."

"No problem, you can rest." Father Lin nodded, a little eager to try.

The others were also awake, lighting up flashlights and kerosene lamps and looking intently at the pig badger.

Such a large prey is too precious for the family, and it will be precious meat.

Lin Heng went to scoop up the rice, added some lard, and made a delicious dinner for Xiong Ba.

After it finished eating, Lin Heng went over to watch his father skin the pig and badger.

Although the pig badger has a pig name and a pig nose, it is actually a species of the Mustelidae family.

The fur is not as hard and rough as that of pigs. Its leather products are beautiful and colorful, and are the raw materials for making high-end fur clothing.

The two ends of the fur are white and the middle is black brown. The hair shaft is moderately thick, has good elasticity and is wear-resistant. It is beautiful and beautiful when made into women's coats, and is a popular leather product.

A complete pig badger skin can be purchased in the market for no less than thirty yuan.

Under Father Lin's skillful hands, the pig badger skin was completely peeled off and stretched out with bamboo to dry.

"This is a boar badger with beautiful fur." ​​Father Lin said with a smile as he looked at the boar badger's fur.

"It's estimated to sell for more than thirty."

Lin Heng nodded with a smile.

Carpenter Liang next to him cast an envious look. Although he hunted all over the mountains, he often failed to catch anything.

But it’s really like being open for several months at a time.

Sister-in-law Liu Juan is beginning to envy Xiulan. Lin Heng seems to have really turned around this time. The speed of making money is so scary.

After the internal organs were broken open, Lin Heng came over and took away the pig badger's lungs and liver: "You don't need to deal with these two, leave them to Xiongba."

The whole family was a little reluctant and looked at Lin Heng helplessly. It would be a waste to feed all such good things to dogs.

Lin Heng put it in a basin and said, "When the tyrant grows up, he can catch more prey."

"Lin Heng is right. Get rid of the intestines quickly and let's go to sleep."

Father Lin said something.

Pig and badger intestines are a good thing, and the fat intestines taste great when fried.

The eldest brother took over the job, simply removed the feces in the intestines, soaked it with plant ash and processed it tomorrow.

"There are still thirteen kilograms of pure meat, which is pretty good!"

Father Lin weighed him again and said with a smile.

"You don't have to worry about money when building a house." Mother Lin was also very happy.

When she heard about building a house, her sister-in-law Liu Juan suddenly wasn't as eager as before. After building the house, she might not be able to eat the prey that Lin Heng hunted.

Thinking of this, she even had the urge to break up the family.

"Okay, okay, put some salt on it and hang it up, and go to bed quickly." Lin Heng waved his hand and said, the family was so excited.

"Yes, it's time to go to bed."

Everyone felt a little sleepy after hearing him say that.

Hang the meat where the mice couldn't eat it, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest, but there were noises from time to time, which showed that everyone was very excited.

Lin Heng lay down, but his daughter Xiaoxia didn't sleep today, tossing and turning in bed, which annoyed him.

But there was no way, children were like this, it's impossible for you to let them sleep and they would sleep.

After coaxing for a while, the child finally fell asleep, and Lin Heng didn't have the energy to toss and turn, leaning against his wife, listening to the heavy rain outside and quickly fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Lin Heng couldn't hold it in and went to the toilet. It was raining heavily outside, and he had to go to the dry toilet, which made him shiver all over.

Back in the room, just lying down, he heard a burst of noises, all made by mice.

The ceiling of his and Xiulan's bedroom was nailed up with colored tarpaulins, because there was a tulou on top and dust often fell.

But with this nailing, the tarpaulin became the world of rats, and they were noisy every night, which was annoying.

And because of the living habits of his previous life, Lin Heng was not used to sleeping for more than ten hours. He got up at night and couldn't fall asleep.

"Damn it!" Finally, Lin Heng couldn't stand it anymore, turned over from the bed, and touched the flashlight.

"What's wrong?" Xiulan was also awakened by his actions and looked at him in confusion.

"The rats are too noisy, I have to deal with them." Lin Heng couldn't stand it anymore. He was disturbed every night after so many days of rebirth.

Xiulan rubbed her eyes and said helplessly: "It's annoying, but they are in the tarpaulin on the top, what can you do?"

"Watch me."

Lin Heng got up, took the flashlight to the big cabinet in the main hall and shoveled a shovel of corn, and fell on the windowsill after returning to the bedroom.

Then he used a knife to saw a hole in the tarpaulin on the windowsill, then took the slingshot, turned off the flashlight, and waited on the bed.

Although it was pitch black in the room at night, there was still some faint white light visible from the window. The human eye would adapt to the faint light as long as it stayed in the dark for a while.

"Will this work?" He whispered in Lin Heng's ear.

Because Lin Heng was now squatting horizontally at the end of the bed, she couldn't sleep well.

"Just watch."

Lin Heng said, and waited quietly.

These mice are often very delicious, especially when it's dark, they eat whatever they see. In just three minutes, a mouse climbed onto the windowsill.

Bang! !

A dull sound sounded, and the mouse fell on the windowsill, and its claws were still trembling after death.

Xiulan excitedly grabbed Lin Heng's arm. It was her first time to watch her husband hunting at such a close distance.

It was so amazing that the mouse died before she could react. She was more excited than her husband.

Lin Heng was helpless. His wife didn't notice that she was only wearing underwear, which made him a little confused.

At this moment, a rat that looked about the same size as a bamboo rat rushed down from the tarpaulin on the top.

A flash of lightning flashed outside, and Lin Heng noticed that the fur of the rat was yellow, obviously an old thing.

Just as it reached the window sill, a black stone hit its head accurately.

With a bang, the big rat fell off the windowsill and died on the ground.

Xiulan's hand grabbed Lin Heng's arm again, expressing her admiration for him.

After a few minutes of silence, two rats rushed down from the tarpaulin again.

Just when Xiulan was worrying about how to kill two at once, Lin Heng had already made a move.

One was killed with a bang, and the other just ran to the edge of the windowsill. Lin Heng's second stone came again, taking its life like the black and white impermanence.

"So fast!" Xiulan couldn't help but speak out.

Lin Heng smiled slightly, almost losing himself.

In the next half hour, five more mice were killed.

"It should be gone. Pick up the mice and sleep." After waiting for more than ten minutes, there was no sound at all. Lin Heng turned on the flashlight to pick up the mice.

"This one is so big. I'm afraid it weighs three pounds!" Xiulan looked at the yellow mouse and was shocked.

"It must be." Lin Heng nodded. There were nine mice in total, each of which was fat and greasy. Lin Heng estimated that the total weight was at least eleven or twelve pounds.

"What should we do with these mice? It's a pity to throw them away. Why don't we eat them?" Xiulan asked. In this era, there was too little meat, and eating mouse meat was not a rare thing.

"Forget it, burn the hair tomorrow and cook it to feed Xiongba." Lin Heng shook his head. Although it was okay to cook it, it was not good after all.

"That's fine." Xiulan nodded. The mice were fed to Xiongba, and the liver of the wild badger could be eaten by people.

However, after killing the mice, the noise was gone, but Lin Heng couldn't sleep even more.

Xiulan was the same, it was all because she was too excited just now.

"How about we do some exercise?" Lin Heng suddenly suggested.

"Ah? How can we do exercise at night?" Xiulan was a little stunned, not knowing that this exercise was not that exercise.

The next moment, Lin Heng leaned over and demonstrated it himself...

"Hmm..."

After a workout, the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms exhausted.

All night, the heavy rain showed no sign of stopping. The next morning, Lin Heng got up from the bed and there was still the sound of rain outside.

"The rain hasn't stopped yet." Lin Heng looked at the window, but it was a wooden window sealed with a white film, so he couldn't see the rain outside.

"It didn't stop all night, and it will probably rain for another day." Xiulan sat up and said. There was nothing to do in the rain, so she didn't get up early.

Mainly because she exercised too intensely last night, she couldn't get up early.

"What a pity, I said I wouldn't go down this morning to pick up the few green crickets I left on the mountain." Lin Heng said with some regret.

"You also shot a green cricket?" Xiulan turned her head and looked at him.

Lin Heng certainly wouldn't admit that this was a backup option because he felt there was no hope of catching prey: "Yes, I shot some to feed Xiongba, but I was afraid that the smell of blood would scare the wild badgers, so I didn't take it and threw it in the woods."

"Then it's probably gone, the mice have eaten it all." Xiulan shook her head and said.
