Men and women eating in the courtyard

Li Xuewu's work was not finished yet, but he took out the steamed buns and ate his lunch with pickles and hot water from the kettle.

After eating and drinking, I took a rest and watched the sun go down. I didn't dare to delay. I took out the dead trees in the space and cut them into lengths as wide as the width of the cart with saws and axes. The branches were piled aside first.

After sawing and chopping, there were twenty-seven trees in total. The roots were as thick as an adult's thigh and the branches were piled in a pile.

Li Xuewu took out the boar and placed it in the middle of the cart. There was a guard plate on the cart wheel for people to sit on, which just happened to sandwich the pig inside.

Install the trunk first, then the branches, and tie them tightly with ropes, like a small mountain bag.

Thanks to the strength of the big green horse, it is not difficult to pull it up, otherwise it would not be possible to pull it back.

On the way back, Li Xuewu did not dare to ride in a car. He had to run and bump all the way back for more than 20 miles. He was afraid that the big green horse would be tired, so he took a few breaths on the way and even drank the horse when crossing the river.

It was already dark when we arrived at the entrance of the alley, it must have been past five-thirty.

When entering the alley, someone asked how to sell firewood.

Li Xuewu was as tired as a big green horse, and he didn't even have the intention to reply. He parked the car by the wall of the reverse house, tied the horse, and walked into the yard.

Just like yesterday, there was a lot of noise, people beating children, people cooking, and people quarreling, and it was a lively atmosphere.

When Li Xuewu walked into the front yard, he saw his grandma standing by the window and looking out. When he saw Li Xuewu entering the yard, he hurriedly put on his clothes and came out.

Li Shun and Liu Yin followed the boss out.

"What's going on? Didn't you say you'd be back before dark? Are you okay?"

"It's okay, grandma, I encountered a little surprise and was a little late."

The eldest grandma hit Li Xuewu with a pipe pot.

"Just fool around! Go to the unloading truck"

Li Xuewu hurriedly stopped his grandma.

"We can't take it off, let's go to battle as a whole family!"

Liu Yin hurriedly went back to the house and asked Xuewen and his wife, Xuecai and Li Xue to come out.

Li Xuewen and Li Xuecai were reluctant when they came out.

Li Xuewen saw that his second brother didn't fight with him when he came back, so he became bolder and muttered: "How much firewood can we have, and the whole family needs to be dispatched?"

While Zhao Yafang was getting dressed, she pinched Li Xuewen and scoffed, "Just do the work if you are asked to do it. There is so much nonsense. The second brother didn't even say he was tired while collecting firewood. Why are your legs so precious?"

When the family came out of the gate and saw the hill-like carriage, they were so surprised that they were speechless.

Li Xue was even more surprised and asked: "Second brother, did you go to the forest farm to grab wood?"

The eldest grandma gently slapped Li Xue on the head from behind.

"Don't talk nonsense. Your second brother has gone into the mountains. Didn't you see that they are all dead trees? The dead trees outside the mountains have been cut down long ago."

When the family heard what the eldest grandma said, they all looked at Li Xuewu loosening the rope with complicated expressions. When they saw the eldest grandma stepping forward to help, they all stretched out their hands to help.

The weak ones carried the branches into the courtyard, and the strong ones carried the trunks into the courtyard. This busy get off work attracted the attention of the third uncle and his family. The second uncle came back from work and took his son Liu Guangtian to stand aside and watch. The door was not big for a while. A bunch of people gathered.

Everyone was chattering about where the second son of the Li family had gotten enough firewood to burn for a whole winter.

One said it must have been given by a relative, another said it might have been stolen, and some said the second youngest of the Li family was capable.

There was also the third uncle who knew how to settle accounts and muttered: "How much coal can be saved by this car of firewood? How much money can be saved!"

No matter how much everyone discussed, no one came forward to help, and everyone in the Li family was allowed to go in and out to carry firewood.

The firewood shed was already full, the horse shed was half full, and the tree trunks were finally piled under the eaves.

Everyone in the Li family was very pleased with the discussion. Li Xuewen and Li Xuecai were the most energetic.

"It has to be our Lao Li family"

Even Grandma Li Xuewu came out to help hold the branches, but Liu Yin quickly persuaded her to go back.

The hillock was quickly emptied. When Li Xuecai moved to the tree trunk on the side of the truck, he was startled when he saw the inside of the truck was dark and full of burrs.

"Yeah!" cried out.

Li Shun saw that Li Xuecai was so frightened that he fell back and sat on the ground, and hurriedly stepped forward to help his son up.

"What's wrong? Are you waist-tired? If you can't lift it, stop trying!"

Li Xuecai came back to his senses after sitting on the ground. Seeing that he was so frightened that his face was red, thanks to the darkness, he hurriedly found an excuse for himself.

"Dad! There is something in the pocket of the car, something furry!"

Li Shun looked into the pocket of the car where Li Xuecai pointed, and said, "What is it? Something with fur?"

When I looked at it, I saw that it was black and prickly with burrs.

At this moment, Li Xuewen and his eldest grandma also gathered around and hurriedly moved the logs on the cart's pocket. Only then did they see a hairy wild boar lying in the cart's pocket.

Li Xuecai lay down behind Li Shun and took a peek. When he saw the wild boar in full view, he shouted in surprise: "It's a pig! Hey, it's a pig!"

All the people watching in the outer circle crowded forward.

"Where are they? Where are they? Where are the pigs?"

"Hey! What a pig!"

"What a pig!"

"Where did the pig come from!"

Everyone in the Li family was squeezed out of the circle. Liu Yin grabbed Li Xuewu's arm and asked: "Xuewu, where did the pig in the car come from? Is it you?"

Liu Yin was really afraid of her son's ability to cause trouble.

Li Shun also came to Li Xuewu's side at this time and poked Liu Yin with his elbow.

"Damn it, kid, don't talk nonsense, that's a wild boar."

Liu Yin still didn't react.

"Wild boar? What wild boar? I'm telling Xuewu about the pig in the car, don't make trouble."

As he said this, he looked at Li Xuewu again. Just as he was about to ask again, he suddenly thought about it. It turned out that everyone said that the pig in the carriage was a wild boar.

"Where did the wild boar come from? Did you go hunting? Why don't you worry so much? What did you say when you went out? I'll beat you!"

As Liu Yin spoke, she slapped Li Xuewu with her palm, and started to cry after hitting him.

There were reasons for being frightened, and there were also reasons for being afraid for my son. Most of all, I was thinking that my son had grown up and he didn’t dare to tell me if he wanted to eat meat, so he went hunting in the mountains at his own risk.

As a parent, who doesn't feel sorry for their children? Looking at the wounds on Li Xuewu's face, and then his face that was red from the cold, he hurriedly pulled his son's face to his own.

Li Xuewu hugged Liu Yin, patted his mother's back and comforted her softly: "Mom, it's okay. Your son is in great shape, and a wild boar of several hundred kilograms is not a problem."

Liu Yin listened to her son's joke and hit Li Xuewu twice with her fist.

"You can brag as much as you want!"

Li Shun patted Liu Yin on the shoulder and said to Li Xuewu: "For the last time, you are not allowed to go there again. If you want to eat meat, tell your mother. I can still afford it for you."

When Li Xuewu returned home, this was the first time he heard Li Shun talk to him in such a nice tone.

After Li Shun finished speaking, he pushed away the onlookers.

"Okay, okay, it's getting dark, let our family carry the firewood back."

At this time, the third uncle stared at Li Shun and said excitedly: "Old Li, pig! Pig!"

Li Shun ignored the third uncle because the third uncle was too shameless. Who could he call a pig? Who is the pig?
