AWB Chapter 340 Tiger Skin
Chapter 340 Tiger Skin
Seeing the pity on the faces of the villagers below, Village Chief Yang hurriedly explained:
"The poison in this tiger is from rat heads. Once you eat this poison, there's no cure. Don't take any chances!
Let me be clear, don’t think that it’s okay if you eat less!
Eating even a small piece of this meat can be fatal!
Don't let any family covet these pieces of meat, or they will ruin their lives in vain!"
It's no wonder he said so much. Nowadays, even rotten meat will be taken home and roasted and eaten.
At this moment, seeing the expressions of the villagers below, Village Chief Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But don't kill the tiger when no one in the village dies, otherwise the tiger will die and then kill people.
Seeing that the village chief spoke so seriously, many villagers put aside their previous thoughts.
Village Chief Yang then continued:
"As I said before, we were able to get rid of this tiger thanks to Daya and the brothers from the North Courtyard!
Therefore, the tiger skin and bones will also be given to them. Do you have any objections?"
Yang Yongyan was the first to speak out: "I have no objection! This tiger was killed by the North Courtyard, so there's no problem with dividing it this way!"
Goudan also said loudly: "I have no objection!"
Immediately afterwards, a group of men who followed the tiger hunter also stood up to express their opinions.
Upon seeing this, Village Chief Yang directly ordered:
"Yongyan, go home and push the cart later.
Once the tiger bones are removed, send them along with the skin to the brothers in the North Courtyard!"
As he spoke, Village Chief Yang looked at Lu Tianming next to him and advised:
"Brother Lu, please don't refuse. Our entire village will remember your kindness!
If you keep pushing it and something happens again, we'd be embarrassed to bother you again!"
Hearing him say this, Lu Tianming no longer refused.
I declined before because I was worried that someone in Linshan Village might have other ideas.
Now that Village Chief Yang and the villagers have no objections, he will not push it away anymore.
After all, Daya and Master Yan did the most to help with this tiger!
As soon as Village Chief Yang finished speaking, Yang Shulin, who was standing on the side of the crowd, wanted to slip away.
He lowered his head and hid behind Bai Xing'er, then walked out quickly.
Seeing this, Shulin Niang, who was standing behind him, was so angry that she poked him with her arm and said in a low voice:
"Woods, hold your head high!
Look at how proud your wife is walking in front. Do you really let her be the head of our family?
The wife looks up and the husband looks down, what a mess! "
Yang Shulin hid and did not go to the mountains to hunt tigers yesterday, for fear of being discovered. He is very nervous now!
Seeing his mother like this, he said angrily:
"Mom, Goudan came to call me last night, but I didn't go!
If you get called out here, it will be troublesome, so please be quiet!"
When Goudan's mother heard that her son was saying this, she said confidently:
"What are you afraid of? Didn't your wife go there last night?
Our family has a child, what else can the villagers say? "
Yang Shulin was young after all, and not as shameless as his mother. He said irritably:
"Okay, stop talking. It would be so embarrassing if people found out!"
As he spoke, he saw Goudan in the crowd and deliberately changed direction to get further away.
But often the more you fear something, the more it will come. Goudan noticed his sneaky figure and looked over. After seeing that it was him, he shouted:
"Woods, what are you hiding for?
I called you to go up the mountain to hunt tigers yesterday, why didn’t you go?
Of all the able-bodied men in our village, you are the only one who didn't go!"
The voice was quite loud, and the attention of the people walking and discussing nearby was drawn to it.
Goudan shouted and ran over here quickly.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Yang Shulin explained with an embarrassed look:
"I had a cold stomach yesterday, and I ran around to the toilet all night, so I didn't have time to go up the mountain."
Goudan looked at him suspiciously: "Is it such a coincidence? Then why did your wife go up the mountain?"
Without waiting for Yang Shulin to say anything, Mother Shulin stepped forward and stood in front of her son, holding her head high and saying:
"The trees are already thinning out, why don't you believe it?
Do you have to let me show you the shit in the toilet before you believe it?"
Goudan always knew that Shulin's mother was a fierce person, but he never expected her to say something so disgusting. He unconsciously stepped back.
Seeing Goudan take a step back, Mother Shulin thought she had convinced him and continued:
"Besides, someone from our family went out yesterday. My daughter-in-law went up the mountain to hunt tigers!
She is good at using a knife, just as good as a man!
We didn’t take advantage of the village!”
As Mrs. Shulin spoke, she looked up and glanced at the villagers around her.
Seeing this, the people around her also avoided her sight.
Mrs. Shulin has always been a hot-tempered person. If you argue with her, it would be embarrassing if you lose the argument, and it would be dishonorable even if you win.
Goudan looked at Yang Shulin who was hiding behind his mother, and felt contempt in his heart.
If he didn't dare to go, he could have just said it directly, but he had to hide behind the woman.
Although the other villagers nearby didn't say anything, they all knew what was going on.
But after all, they were from the same village, so he didn't say anything else.
Bai Xing'er heard the noise behind her, turned around and saw Yang Shulin hiding behind her mother-in-law and refusing to come out, and she thought of the scene last night again.
This man is so timid, even worse than an ordinary woman.
Thinking of how he had urged me to go up the mountain last night, I felt even more disappointed.
She began to reflect on whether she had really married the right person.
Her mother once told her that a woman needs someone to rely on in order to survive.
But in life, we can't escape the four necessities of life: food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Let’s talk about clothes first. Everything she wears now was bought by herself. She even altered two of her old clothes and gave them to her two younger sisters.
As for food, ever since she married into the Yang family, she changed from three meals a day to two meals a day, and from eating dry food for every meal to drinking porridge every day.
Secondly, in terms of living, the Yang family’s house is far inferior to the North Courtyard in terms of safety and warmth.
Last but not least, you need someone to rely on if you encounter danger.
This time, a man-eating tiger appeared in the village. Her husband wanted to hide in the cracks of the ground and not come out. He was not as brave as her.
For a moment, Bai Xing'er was in a state of confusion.
She ignored her aggressive mother-in-law and her husband who was hiding behind her, and went straight home.
......
Lu Qingqing walked back side by side with Aunt Lu.
"Aunt, we were able to get rid of the tiger thanks to the Aconitum you gave us. You should have a share of the credit today!"
When Second Aunt Lu heard what Lu Qingqing said, she shook her head and said:
"In the final analysis, this is the result of your risky fight. Don't tell anyone about that thing anymore."
Although Lu Qingqing was a little confused, she still planned to make a hat or something for Erya after she got the tiger skin.
She looked ahead at Erya, who was jumping and playing in the snow with Lu Yuanyun, and said with a smile:
"Not only is Arya taller than before, she's also much happier!"
Aunt Lu looked at Erya and smiled gently:
"Yeah, that's what children should be like, just like when you were at the Lu family..."
As soon as the words left her mouth, she stopped.
Not only did she not want to talk about the days at the Lu family, but Daya probably didn't want to talk about it either.
Beside her, Lu Qingqing was also a little dazed when she heard her mention the Lu family.
The days after fleeing the famine seemed especially long. Looking back now, it feels like a lifetime ago.
Ever since the barbarians attacked the team, she and Old Man Lu and the others have been separated for a long time.
Thinking of her younger brother Dazhuang, Lu Qingqing felt a little nervous.
Where is that well-behaved and sensible boy now and how is he doing?
