Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qian Dashan and the others were finally driven away by Qin Zhenzhen’s resolute actions.
Ms. Lin continued to mutter curses as she walked away.
“I’ve never seen such a fierce woman!”
“A real tomboy!”
“It serves you right that Su Bin doesn’t like you!”
“And it serves Su Bin right for not sharing a room with you!”
“I’m going to fetch the village chief and others. Wild boars on the public mountain are meant for everyone. Don’t even think about claiming them all for yourselves!”
Qin Zhenzhen dismissed Ms. Lin’s ramblings as nonsensical. She was already far away and Qin Zhenzhen had no desire to engage further.
Su Ning discreetly observed Qin Zhenzhen’s expression and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was unharmed.
However, Su Ning couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret.
Did Third Sister-in-law truly not care anymore because she had given up on Third Brother?
Qin Zhenzhen resolved to carry out one task — bleeding the wild boar before it completely lost consciousness. This would ensure that the taste of the meat remained unaffected.
She took the sickle and made a deep cut on the wild boar’s neck. Then, using the thick vine in her hand, she tightened it until the wild boar met its demise.
Su Ning stood there in astonishment.
Qin Zhenzhen had claimed to not know how to slaughter pigs, yet here she was, successfully killing a wild boar.
Qin Zhenzhen was undeniably fierce. She could fight men and take down wild boars.
But with each passing moment, Su Ning found herself growing fonder of her Third Sister-in-law.
Qin Zhenzhen and Su Ning had diligently stood guard at the trap until the arrival of Su Cheng and the four brothers from the Qin Family.
Qin Dalong couldn’t help but express his disappointment upon seeing the wild boar trapped.
“It’s such a shame to waste the blood of a wild boar. It has many uses.”
Qin Zhenzhen recounted the events that had transpired.
“If I didn’t kill the wild boar, they would have come to steal it. If we drove them away, more people would have arrived. If there were too many, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to handle them all.”
Qin Silong cursed, “Your uncle’s family is shameless!”
Su Ning added, “Yes, they’re shameless! But Third Sister-in-law managed to drive them away!”
Qin Erlong chuckled, “Zhenzhen, you’re amazing!”
Qin Zhenzhen nodded proudly, “We’re quite strong.”
Qin Dalong inspected the wound and became even more surprised.
“Zhenzhen, you know how to slaughter pigs!”
“That’s impressive. The blade was positioned perfectly.”
Qin Zhenzhen tried to stifle her laughter. “I learned from observing my brothers’ practices!”
With the Qin Brothers taking turns to carry the wild boar, weighing 150 kilograms, they soon transported it to the Su Family’s location.
Su Cheng and his sister promptly boiled water to scald the pig’s fur.
The Qin Brothers had brought their pig slaughtering tools with them.
After the wild boar was washed, they immersed the fur in boiling water to facilitate its removal.
Wild boars had long and challenging fur to remove, but for the Qin Brothers, who were experienced in this task, it presented no difficulty.
Once the fur was removed, they proceeded to open the wild boar’s belly and cut the meat into manageable pieces.
Ms. Lin, still unconvinced, arrived at the Su Family’s location with a group of people in tow.
“We’ve also encountered wild boars! Wild boars in public mountains must be shared by everyone; it’s a rule!”
The individuals accompanying her chimed in, emphasizing, “Indeed, this is a rule passed down by our ancestors for thousands of years!”
“Qin Zhenzhen, you can’t break the rules established by our ancestors!”
Qin Zhenzhen responded firmly, “I understand the rules. If they are reasonable, I am willing to share. However, they have no right to claim ownership over the pork! ”
Qin Zhenzhen recounted how Ms. Lin had attempted to steal the wild boar.
“If I hadn’t been strong enough to drive them away, they would have taken this wild boar!”
Ms. Lin’s companions turned to her, questioning if it was true.
Initially, Ms. Lin denied the allegations. However, when Su Ning stepped forward as a witness, Ms. Lin had nothing left to say in her defense..
