Today at noon, the strong aroma of meat and bone soup floated in the sky above Wangjia Village. The dogs in the village were almost drying their saliva and howling with greed.

Just after lunch, the village chief came to Mingyue's house with his two sons and two daughters-in-law.

The village chief took out a small book bound with yellow paper and handed it to Mingyue, "Mingyue, the pork has been divided. There are fifty-six households in our village, and each family has been divided into two kilograms of meat. If the bones are not enough, the wolves will be mixed in."

Meat together, that's okay

It's divided evenly enough. This is the account book. You keep it and put it together with the list of people who lent you money last time. From now on, it will be a favor of your family. The pig's water has been brought to you and has been cleaned.

And suet, that one

The bucket is made of pig blood. Didn't you say you want to fill it with blood sausage? I also specially left two kilograms of pork belly for you. I have asked your two sisters-in-law to help make bacon. It just so happens that you can eat bacon after eating these pigs.

Yes, I left it for you

Five big bones. There are many people in your family who drink soup. How many of them should you keep outside? Let your brother put the rest in the well with the bacon and keep it for you to eat slowly. Wolf skins and other things, you

Brother Wang will go to town tomorrow to help you sell it."

The eldest son of the village chief's family was very honest. He walked to the corner carrying the bacon and bones.

"Sister, I know where your well is. Your mother dug it so that you could have cool fruits in the summer. I even came to help you. It's been a long time since I've seen you.

We are home. I will leave a big bone for you outside first, and put the rest into the well for you. You can take it out whenever you want."

The eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief's family quickly walked to Mingyue and said in a low voice: "We secretly left three big ribs for you. You can eat them slowly. Your two brothers-in-law and you are both growing up.

You have to eat well, yes,

Don't let others know, lest they say that father-in-law is partial and unfair in dividing things. Although no one will rob you, there are a few women in our village who like to say that they are typical of those who get a bargain but still behave well. It's annoying to hear them talk about it, isn't it?

?”

The village chief's second son and his wife put the buckets they were carrying in the yard.

The second daughter-in-law said: "By the way, Mingyue, your brother Wang's family is making meat sauce. He said he would send you some later. When you get busy with farming, you can just eat it with the meat sauce. All your products are sold.

Well, your sister-in-law will come over later to calculate the money with you, so that you can rest assured."

The second child asked: "Sister Mingyue, how do you deal with the pig blood and intestines? I'll help you. I haven't changed the clothes I just killed the pig. I'll just go home and wash up after I finish helping you."

It was a bit hot at noon today, so Mingyue asked her two brothers-in-law to have lunch and go home for a nap. Mingyue had just finished feeding Mu Yunkai rice soup, and she was a little confused when she saw how enthusiastic the people were.

She placed the empty bowl on the stone table in the yard, asked the village chief to sit down, and then went to the side to talk to her brothers and sisters-in-law.

"Brother, okay, leave one bone, that's enough. Sister-in-law, thank you. Second brother, please help fill the blood sausage. I'll tell you how to do it. I'll leave it to you here. I'll change the pig intestines, lungs, and kidneys."

Dao, you all come to my house to eat tonight, and then I invite Brother Wang and his family, thank you for your help during this time."

The village chief grabbed Mingyue and said sincerely: "My child, all the wild boars and wolves you shot were given to us, which is enough to express our gratitude. We can't come to your house to eat. First, there are too many of us. Please cook.

Not only does it waste time, it mainly wastes food.

, the second is, we all come to your house, if others see it, we will have ideas, and speaking of it, all of them have helped you; in this way, you can cook a few dishes later, and we will take some back, and treat it as

I ate at your house, listened to me, and followed your king

The eldest brother's family also does the same thing. I will help you deliver his food to him, and then you can go to the fields when you need to. Also, if you can't go hunting in the future, you can go into the mountains by yourself. Remember to call the men in the village.

Although it is said that you have a mountain to live on, as long as you work hard you will never die of hunger.

You have a strong temper and want to fight, we know, but you can't go into the mountains and take risks by yourself. Moreover, look, the prey you brought back has been shared with everyone. In the future, every family should contribute to hunting.

You must remember what I said!"

Mingyue agreed with a smile, and then went to cook.

She made stir-fried kidneys, couple's lung slices, fat sausages, and boiled blood sausages, and packed one portion each for the village chief's house and Brother Wang's house.

The village chief's family of five carried the food basket home with swallowing saliva.

When the village chief came home, he pointed to the food basket that his two daughters-in-law brought into the kitchen and said to the old woman: "Look, this is Mingyue's craftsmanship. If I hadn't been so full after eating pork bone soup at noon, I would have wanted to eat two more bowls."

Fan, she is like her mother, she is very kind-hearted, she treats us all as a family, she cares about us no matter what, she is also smart, as long as she reaches out to do something

Everything she did was cooked very well. With the dishes she gave, our family can have dinner in time for the Chinese New Year. Is the pig head roasted yet? Go and cut the roasted pig head meat and pig ears.

Send the plate to Mingyue! I just told the old Wang family next door that our two families should share less pork head meat, and let Mingyue taste everything."

The village chief suddenly remembered something, turned around and ordered his eldest son: "Boss, take your wife to each house to inform them, and go together to help Mingyue plow the ground in the afternoon. If you take other people's meat, you can't take it for free. Each of their families will get something."

But they are all worth half a tael of silver. Our family also gets extra care from Mingyue Girl. You two brothers will bring your wives to help later."

Aunt Wang was making skin jelly at home. She looked at the dishes Mingyue brought on the stove and thought about the bowl of meat sauce she had just sent to her eldest son. She felt that her family was stingy, "Old man, the village chief next door

Didn't you say that when the pig's head meat is roasted, you have to share it with Mingyue? Why don't you go to Mingyue's house with someone from their family later? You can find a small bucket for Mingyue to put this jelly, as well as our meat.

Jiang, give Mingyue another bowl."

Uncle Wang saw Mingyue leading his brothers-in-law to the ground, so he and the village chief's second son carried buckets and food baskets and chased them directly to the ground.

"Girl Mingyue, your aunt insisted on bringing it to you. She was not happy if I was a moment late. She was afraid that someone would come to my house later and take over your jelly and a bowl of meat sauce. Your aunt said that you are the best

I love eating the sauce she made. If it’s not enough, ask your mistress to go to my house to get it. The pig’s head meat is what we both agreed to give to you, so just keep it. Here, you can give it to me at home.

, I will dig the ground for you."

"Thank you Uncle Wang, thank you Auntie, thank you village chief uncle and second brother, it's enough to eat. I don't have to worry about cooking this spring. Please tell Auntie Wang not to send more meat. Your family doesn't get much meat in total."

, and gave me two bowls of meat sauce." Mingyue took the food basket and thanked her very much. Although the meat sauce was mixed with mushrooms, it only took two kilograms of meat to make much meat sauce. Wang

big brother family

She still had a lot to eat, and the leftovers might not be enough to eat a few meals. Mingyue thought about going to the mountains tomorrow to catch some pheasants, rabbits, etc. and send two to his family. Moreover, she couldn't really ask Uncle Wang to help her dig the ground.

After all, Brother Wang and his brothers no longer let their father work in the fields. She would be embarrassed if she asked an old man to work for her family, so she directed Mu Yuntian to send back the food basket and bucket.

"My mother-in-law didn't eat much at lunch, so I just let her try something new. Maybe she likes it. Uncle Wang, second brother, you and Xiaotian will help me send the things back, and explain to Xiaotian how to store the food.

Sorry to bother you. Xiaotian, remember to invite Uncle Wang and Second Brother for some tea when you get home!"

Mu Yuntian happily took the food basket from Mingyue's hand, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, "Uncle Wang, Second Brother Wang, please excuse me."

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, look!"

The food delivery person had just been sent away, and then a group of helpers came. Mingyue looked at Mu Yunhe's horrified eyes, and immediately smiled.

Mu Yunhe is like a monk with two feet. "Sister-in-law, their land has been planted. What are they doing with hoes? Also, they are coming towards us all. Sister-in-law, I haven't done anything bad recently." !If they come to wrongly accuse me, you have to make the decision for me!"

Mingyue glanced at him sideways, "Look at your future! Don't worry, they are not here to find you, they are here to help."

Mu Yunhe finally put his heart back in his stomach, "But, sister-in-law, why did they come only this afternoon? Our land is almost finished!"

Mingyue slapped him in the face, "Okay. Shut up! You still have to push the envelope! Why did you come here only this afternoon? Because courtesy is reciprocal. I didn't know what kind of virtue your shepherd family was before, and I don't know if it's worth helping, especially if you You, who knows if you will cause trouble for yourself?! I didn't ask them for help before, but now everyone should think that our performance is okay, so here we are. Remember, if you don't want others to treat you Well, you yourself must first let others see your fiery heart, your sincerity and kindness. Insight into worldly affairs is knowledge, and understanding of human relationships is art. The way of getting along between people is very profound! By the way, Speaking of knowledge, I think of it. It seems that since I met you two brothers, you have never read a book or written. When the land is finished, your eldest brother will be well soon. Then I will discuss with him about your studies. If you are young, you should study more."

Mu Yunhe scratched his head and said weakly: "But, sister-in-law, it costs money to study, and it costs a lot. My third brother and I have been sleepy since we were young, and we can't pass the exam. Wasn’t your money wasted then?”

Mingyue pinched Mu Yunhe's arm hard, "You're not young anymore, but you don't have any ambition at all! Also, who said that if I ask you to study, you have to get fame? Only by studying can you be sensible. Only when you understand things can you be a good person, and only then can you be invincible in doing things in the future."

Mu Yunhe screamed in pain, "Okay, sister-in-law, please let go. I understand. I will listen to my sister-in-law. I will go forward to greet the villagers."

While they were talking, the villagers had already arrived at their homestead.

Seeing Mu Yunhe running toward the villagers, Mingyue also stepped forward to welcome everyone into the field.

The village chief's eldest daughter-in-law took the lead and called to the young adults behind her, "Come on, the forks and hoes in your hands are moving. Their family still has three acres of land. Each of us can help her family plow the land in two strokes." Do you see that there? Wait a while and dig a manure pit at the end of her land. The newly dug land needs fertilizer. Her family needs fertilization. Only with fertilizer can the crops grow well."

Everyone shouted in unison, "Okay! Just look at Mingyue!"

There were more than two hundred people, and in less than an hour, all the work was completed in three strokes, five divisions, and two divisions.

"Brothers and sisters-in-law, please come back! We will handle the rest of the small work on the edge of the field and the edge of the cesspit ourselves. Thank you very much for today. When the work is over, I will treat everyone to meat and wine!" Mingyue saw that many people stopped what they were doing. She took one look at the farm tools and knew that everyone thought the remaining work was too small, so she thanked everyone and let them go back.

Mu Yuntian was a little slow in delivering the things. When he came back, everyone had slowly dispersed.

Mu Yunhe smiled and sent everyone to the field.

Mu Yuntian complained a little to Mingyue and said, "Sister-in-law, it was done so easily. Why didn't you ask them to help earlier?"

Mingyue handed the shovel in her hand to Mu Yunhe, and gave Mu Yuntian a shudder, "Do you think asking for help is easy? Don't ask for help easily, save the favor, and wait until there is a big problem before asking for help. If you

Go and trouble others every now and then. No matter how good-tempered you are, they will annoy you until you

When something big happens, your favors are almost used up, and everyone has annoyed you so much, who will help you then. Besides, everyone helped me before because of my mother's sake. They know how to be grateful, but I don't.

You cannot repay kindness with kindness. If you want to live a good life, you must rely on your own abilities, so that you can last long."

"Oh, by the way, Xiaotian, what is mom doing at home? Does she still not eat?"

Mu Yuntian looked at Mingyue with a smile, "Sister-in-law, my mother ate a whole plate of jelly. She also drank a bowl of porridge and ate two steamed buns with meat sauce. You don't have to worry."

Mingyue regretted it after asking, because Xiaomeng told her that her evil mother-in-law had eaten and drank enough to climb the wall now...
