Chapter 11 Human Heart
The news that Xu Baozhu and Qian Jin had brought back the wild boar that had ruined the crops spread like wildfire. Soon, the road home was full of people, adults and children, who followed them all the way until they entered Qian's yard.

"Ah, the second brother really brought the big pig back!" The little sister of the Qian family was surprised and delighted, and walked around the wild boar several times, and gestured to Qian's mother in a novel way: "Aniang, look at how big it is, There are several that are my age."

Mother Qian looked at her dotingly, "Okay, okay, come quickly and help cook, don't delay your brother and the others from doing things."

"Hey!"

Qian Xiaomei responded sweetly, and quickly followed into the kitchen.

The wild boar had been shot, but how to divide it became a matter of concern to everyone in the village. Many people came to join in the fun, guessing that the two families might fight because of this thing.

Thinking of this, Jiao Shi, the second sister-in-law of the Xu family, was overjoyed.

"It's good to fight, let them be proud!"

After hearing her words, some provocateurs deliberately provoked people: "This treasure girl is really unkind, your Xu family's uncles and brothers are still there, find someone with a different surname, and give all the benefits to others, how can you be so rude?" Those who work, this doesn’t put you in the eyes at all.”

Jiao felt that the man was her bosom friend, so she held his hand with tears in her eyes and began to talk.

"Who says no, this treasure girl, you said that we helped her a lot when we were young, how could we treat others badly, our family still has an old lady, who used to secretly give her things from our house, we Have you ever said anything? I really grew up and my heart hardened, I just raised a white-eyed wolf, the poor old lady is so painstaking!"

Xu Feng, the eldest son of Xu's second son, only felt ashamed and hurriedly dragged people away from Qian's place.

"What are you asking me to do? Am I wrong? That girl is a white-eyed wolf. She doesn't think about her own family when she has good things, but thinks about outsiders."

"Didn't our family know you about the third uncle's family all these years? If you say this now, you won't be afraid of being laughed at when you say it."

"Joke at me, who dares to laugh at me, you call here and ask, who won't say that I, Jiao Chun'e, know how to behave and do things, you brat, to hate your old lady so much because of that broom star, I think it's really worth raising you!"

Xu Feng didn't want to hear it, so he just dragged him into the house.

The second child Xu came out of the house when he heard the sound, and as soon as Jiao saw him, he became concerned, and no longer cared about what Xu Feng said about her, he hurriedly dragged people into the house, and said: "That pig is so big, girl Bao You must be able to share a lot, you are her second uncle, and you went to her wedding a few days ago and spoke for her, you go tell her and find a way to get some back."

Xu Lao Er had a bitter face, "The things are hunted by others, what should I do if I go? Don't go!"

As soon as Jiao heard this, he became angry, pointing at the person and yelling: "No, you want face, why don't you go and kill one of them, it's thin-skinned there now, do you know how long our family hasn't seen each other?" It's too dirty, you worthless bastard, I just want your face, yes, you have the face, none of us..."

The more Jiao said, the more angry she got, she sat down on the ground and wailed, "Oh, what crime did I do? I married you, a useless piece of trash, and gave birth to so many children for you. Well done, I usually don't want to eat or wear, I leave it to you, but in the end, everyone blames me, blames me, I don't live, forget it if I die, you can feel at ease after I die. "

When Xu's second son started a dispute over Xu Baozhu's killing of wild boars, the Xu family's boss was also not at peace.

Mrs. Xu just stepped into the house with one foot, and she heard her eldest daughter-in-law Liu's yin and yang say: "Look, I just said, sometimes, you just can't be too nice to people, or your elbows will always turn out and throw things away." They were all taken out, but they didn’t bring any of them back.”

This is scolding Mrs. Xu.

She knew it in her heart, but in the current situation, she could only act as if she hadn't heard anything, didn't know anything, entered the door tremblingly, walked to her usual place and sat down, but it wasn't warm yet. Seeing that the eldest daughter-in-law knocked off her daughter's hand holding vegetables with a chopstick, she said cursingly: "Is this what you little girl should eat? You don't even look at yourself. It's useless at home on weekdays." , and want to eat meat, I think you want to eat fart!"

The little girl was scolded for no reason, burst into tears, and was beaten again by her mother, "Why are you crying? If you want to cry, get out and cry. Don't be embarrassing like me. You look upset!"

After Mrs. Liu finished cursing, she threw half of the moldy bun into Mrs. Xu's bowl, and explained with a smile:
"I'm sorry mother, this is the only condition in the family. Let's leave these things to Erlang and the others. Only when men are full can they work hard. Come on, eat this."

The old lady Xu looked at the bun, feeling sore in her heart, and looked at her eldest son, who hung his head without saying a word.

This attitude made her understand everything.

The old lady Xu got up and went out with staggering steps.

……

Xu Baozhu's side.

After lunch, the two families sat down to discuss food sharing.

Xu Baozhu had already made up his mind, and took the initiative to say: "Our family is small, and we can't eat that much, so we only need half of the half, but... the four legs must be given to us."

"Only half of half?"

The eldest brother of the Qian family was shocked, "This is not in compliance with the rules. You and Ah Jin went together, we can't take advantage of you."

Qian Jin also followed suit and said: "Yes, Sister Baozhu, without you, our family would not be able to take this big thing. We can't divide it up like this. What kind of meat is there in that leg? It's all bones. It's not fair to you."

Qian's father and Qian's mother remained silent.

Xu Baozhu's suggestion, from their own considerations, they undoubtedly agree with. There are about ten people in their family, and there is an injured patient. They are indeed more in need than Xu's family, but the things are beaten together by others, and they have a heart I also understand that, just like what the second child said, if there is no Xu Baozhu, there is no way to take it down. People are thin-skinned, so they can't do such unkind things, and they can't say such things.Now Xu Baozhu's willingness to give up is exactly what they want, but the two sons...

If they were really split halfway, they would agree, but they were afraid that they would think about it in their hearts, thinking about it for a long time.

The old man Xu is an honest man, he doesn't have so many twists and turns, the things were taken down by his daughter and others, and the daughter said so, so he naturally had no objection, and persuaded: "Ah Cheng, Ah Jin, I know You are kind, but our family really doesn’t need that much, and it will break if left unattended, and you, Cheng, are still injured and need to be taken care of, so don’t argue with us.”

These words reached the hearts of the parents of the Qian family. Father Qian held the hand of the old man Xu, and he was grateful, "Old Xu, thank you for understanding us. From now on... If there is any need for your family in the future, please contact me." Let's say it, and we will never refuse."

"Yes." Old man Xu nodded.

After the two agreed, they started to work. The men were all around the wild boar, dealing with it, and the women were boiling water in the kitchen. Zhu Yun had never done any work, and he didn't even know how to cook with firewood. Embarrassed, Xu Baozhu led him in and taught him how to use flint, how to pull a bellows, and how to boil water. While he was busy, he caught sight of two familiar figures standing outside the courtyard of the Qian family.
