"He Chunhua, I'm in a bad mood right now and don't have time to joke with you. I promised you the porridge, but only after I get the silver from that little bastard."
He Chunhua looked at Wang Dajiao and the other two, their faces turning purple from the cold, and she understood why they were so angry.
"Oh, it's true. Why would I lie to you?"
"Aunt He, don't make fun of us. A wild boar weighing forty or fifty kilograms. Is that something that little bastard Ye Ming could have hunted?"
"Even when Hunter Wu was around, he wouldn't have dared to provoke a wild boar that big."
Even if Wang Dajiao and the other two had no prejudice against Ye Ming, no one would have believed that one person could have taken down such a large wild boar.
"That's right, Aunt He. Even in Dawang Village, if you want to hunt a wild boar, you have to have several experienced hunters set traps in advance."
"We're in a bad mood right now. If you insist on making fun of me, I don't mind letting my brothers find an explanation."
Wang Zhaodi had many brothers, so she could act so arrogantly in front of Wang Dajiao's family.
In ancient rural areas, families with more brothers were more likely to fight, and the government generally didn't bother to intervene in fights.
Therefore, the more brothers a family had, the more power they had, and no one dared to provoke them easily.
He Chunhua had no choice but to leave when she heard that Wang Zhaodi was planning to ask her brothers to deal with her.
"Bah, I'm telling you this out of kindness, and you don't believe it. You deserve to be separated from him." He Chunhua cursed as she walked away.
"Mom, this Aunt He is so stupid. Even if we get the silver, we won't give her white porridge. She still wants to come and cheat us."
Wang Dajiao and the others rolled their eyes at Ye Qingshan. "I think you're the real idiot. Let's go to Muramasa's house."
Hearing that they had to go out and freeze again, Ye Qingshan's face fell instantly. "Mom, can't we go tomorrow?"
"It's getting late." Wang Zhaodi, who didn't want to go out and freeze, also agreed.
Originally, Wang Dajiao wanted to go to Liu Qiang immediately, but because of Wang Zhaodi, she had to compromise.
"Okay, go and make some porridge. We'll go early tomorrow morning."
Seeing Wang Zhaodi's unmoved look, Wang Dajiao could only order Ye Qingshan around.
"Why me, mother?"
"If not you, then me? The porridge was cooked by the fool before. Now that the fool is gone, who else can cook it?"
...
Compared to Wang Dajiao's loving mother and filial son, Ye Ming's family is much warmer.
When Ye Ming returned home, Su Xiaorong had already prepared dinner.
"Husband, the meal is ready. You and Brother Qiang should eat it while it's hot. I'll go boil some water."
"I won't eat. My family is waiting for you. But sister-in-law, don't be scared to death when you see what your husband has hit."
Su Xiaorong looked puzzled. What could be so scary to hit that she fainted? Could it be a worm?
"Brother Qiang, don't tease me."
Liu Qiang just smiled and turned away.
"Husband, what did you catch today?"
"It's right outside the door. Go and see."
To give Su Xiaorong a surprise, Ye Ming didn't bring the wild boar inside. Instead, he placed it on the snow in the yard.
With that, Ye Ming took Su Xiaorong's hand and led her outside.
Su Xiaorong felt a little shy at Ye Ming's gesture. She tried to pull away, but found it was useless.
"Husband's hand is so warm! I thought it would be cold after a day of freezing."
For a moment, Su Xiaorong wished she could hold Ye Ming's hand forever.
"Here, look at my catch of the day!"
"Wow, such a big wild boar, and even piglets!" Su Xiaorong was shocked and marveled at Ye Ming's ability, but then something seemed to occur to her. She anxiously examined Ye Ming.
"No, Xiaorong, what are you looking for?"
"Husband, are you hurt? Such a big wild boar, you didn't get hurt, did you?"
Ye Ming raised his head proudly. "How could a mere wild boar possibly hurt me, your husband?"
"Husband, you're lying! How could you and Brother Qiang easily defeat a wild boar that size?"
Su Xiaorong had seen wild boars before. When she was little, her grandfather was killed by a wild boar. Several strong men in the village hadn't even tackled it, and it had gotten away.
"It's true. If you don't believe me, check carefully when you wipe my body later."
Su Xiaorong's face burned even hotter at this. "Husband, you're teasing me again."
"Hahaha, no more teasing. I'll bring this wild boar inside and we'll eat."
"Husband, I'll help you." Su Xiaorong was so excited that she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.
"Husband, how much silver can these wild boars sell for?"
"I guess thirty or forty taels, what's the problem?"
Although she knew they could fetch a lot of money, the approximate figure made Su Xiaorong even more sleepless. "You can sell so much! You're so capable, husband!"
"Of course I can do anything. Didn't you just try it?"
"Husband, you're such a jerk! I'm ignoring you."
The next morning, Ye Ming was helped by Su Xiaorong as she packed up her things.
"Husband, aren't you taking all the wild boar?"
"No, it's delicious. We'll keep some for ourselves."
Although Ye Ming's purchases over the past two days had been a bit pricey, Su Xiaorong still considered them a bit extravagant. But Ye Ming was the head of the family; he could do whatever he pleased. All she had to do was support him.
"Okay, husband. Be safe on your way home and get up early. I'll be waiting for you at home."
"Yes."
For a moment, Ye Ming began to enjoy the feeling of having someone waiting for him at home every day. Thinking of this, he unconsciously quickened his pace.
He thought that today would be the day they could complete the family division, free themselves from the vampire traps of Wang Dajiao and his family, and live a good life with Xiaorong.
A constant surge of energy surged through his body. "Let's go to Liu Qiang's first. He should be waiting for me."
Just as Ye Ming arrived outside Liu Qiang's door, he heard Wang Da Jiao arguing.
"Wang Da Jiao, stop being unreasonable!"
"Muramasa Liu, I didn't attack you because you're Muramasa. If your son doesn't hand over the idiot, don't blame us for not leaving."
Liu Dahai and Liu Qiang looked at the three scoundrels, helpless.
"Wang Da Jiao, aren't you afraid of divine retribution for doing this?"
"What divine retribution should I face? It's only natural for a mother to adopt her son. I'm asking my son for money. What's it to you?"
"Yeah, tell us where that little bastard lives."
Seeing the three aggressive men, Ye Ming couldn't bear it anymore. He opened the door and went in, kicking each of them.
"I'm here. Aren't you looking for me? I'm coming!"
"Ouch, you little bastard!"
The three men cried out in pain, cursing as they lay in the snow. Ye Ming didn't give them a chance, kicking them with his legs.
"It's only natural to return a son's adoptive mother to his son."
"How dare you tell God that you are my mother?"
"Oh, that's what my mother said. Why are you kicking me? Kick her!"
