Lian Fangzhou thought for a while and said with a smile: "Ah Jian will not lie to me! Of course I believe it!"

Ah Jian raised her eyebrows and smiled, feeling an inexplicable warmth in her heart.

After Lao Zhang and Xiao Zhang left Lian Fangzhou's house, they went to Aunt Zhang's house and gave them the remaining two pieces of tiger meat and two tiger bones.

Tiger meat is a rare and rare thing, and you may not be able to eat a bite in a lifetime; tiger bones are excellent for making wine and strengthening your body.

When Uncle Li saw it, he smiled and said: "You are too. How big is that tiger? There are so many people in the village to share. I'm afraid you can't get two pieces yourself. And this tiger bone is even more precious." , give us everything!"

Lao Zhang hurriedly laughed and said: "Brother-in-law is offended, and we have kept it for ourselves! This is brought by Tete for you! If it weren't for this A-Jian you introduced, how could things go so smoothly? This A-Jian, still It's really not easy!"

Lao Zhang praised Ah Jian with sighs and smiles, and Aunt Zhang and Uncle Li also came to ask questions, and they were deeply impressed and sighed.

Xiao Zhang's complexion was not very good. Hearing what his father said, he only picked good ones, so he sneered and said, "Brother A Jian and A Ze are both good, but some people in our village are too dishonest! It's really shocking to talk about it." angry!"

Lao Zhang didn't expect his son to speak out, and it was too late to stop him, so he couldn't help but glared at his son, "You child, you really..."

But Xiao Zhang glanced at him and said, "Father, there's nothing wrong with that, my aunt and uncle are not outsiders! Besides, Brother Ah Jian was invited by them, so tell them so that they can have a clear idea in their hearts." ! Save what happens in the future!"

Aunt Zhang and Uncle Li were shocked when they heard this, and Aunt Zhang hurriedly said: "Brother, what's going on? You must tell me clearly! Otherwise, I will return to you in the future." How can I meet the Fangzhou family!"

Old Zhang sighed softly when he heard this.

Xiao Zhang glanced at his father and said angrily: "My father won't tell me, let me tell! It's not just about hunting big bugs! Earlier, my aunt and I proposed to use a pig to set a trap." I won’t talk about it, you don’t know, after hunting the big worm, those people looked at the tiger skin and became greedy again, and wanted to occupy the tiger skin behind Brother Jian’s back. Organized, the tiger skin should belong to the village, and as for Brother Jian, he has already offered him two taels of silver, so he is not at a loss! But this tiger skin is in excellent condition, worth at least a dozen taels of silver!"

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang unconsciously let out a low cry, and blurted out: "How could they do this! How can they change their minds when they have said something beforehand!"

Thinking that Ah Jian was introduced by herself, Aunt Zhang couldn't help but stumbled: "If this is the case, how can I meet him in the future!"

"Who says it's not!" Xiao Zhang said angrily, "I insisted with a few brothers who admired Brother Jian, and said that if such a contradictory thing spread, our entire village would be ridiculed and looked down upon! In the end, those talented people I had to give in. I said a lot of unpleasant things, and I told people to hide it from my brother Jian!"

"It's even more ridiculous," Xiao Zhang said again: "Those people had to give up their tiger skins, and they actually thought of letting Brother Jian and Aze leave at dawn! They share a share of tiger meat! They don't even think about it, if it wasn't for Brother Jian's ability, they would still want to eat tiger meat? It's fine not to be eaten by tigers!"

Both Uncle Li and Aunt Zhang turned yellow.

Uncle Li sighed: "It's really too much! Don't talk about such a dangerous and important matter. Even if someone helps you with ordinary things, you have to leave a meal, right? Driving people away early in the morning is really..."

After Xiao Zhang uttered all the aggrieved words, he felt much better. Hearing that my uncle and aunt agreed with me, my complexion became even better, and I sighed: "The behavior of those people is so shameless that I don't like it! Afterwards, after several of us discussed it, we put Jane Eldest brother and Aze invited to our house for dinner, accompanied by a few brothers who are good friends on weekdays, and it also saves him from being with those people. In case of any gossip, we will feel sorry for it! No, we father and son after breakfast The two will send them back, and visit uncle and aunt by the way!"

"Da Lang is sensible!" Aunt Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and said with a smile: "You are thoughtful! Hey, I will never dare to talk to Ah Jian about this kind of thing again! By the way, that tiger meat , but did you give it to them?"

"Give it!" Xiao Zhang nodded, "It's those of us who went up the mountain with Brother Jian who insisted on giving it, no matter how reluctant they are!"

Xiao Zhang still felt a little bored when he said this. He gave it, but he didn't give much, and he still felt a little bit sorry.

"Oh," Aunt Zhang sighed, "This is a mess! I really won't care about such trivial matters in the future!"

Uncle Li glanced at his brother-in-law and nephew, and quickly comforted him: "Don't think too much about it, A Jian and A Ze are not the kind of people who are petty, and neither is Fang Zhou! Fortunately, this matter has been resolved , that's it!"

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what you said!" Aunt Zhang also hurriedly nodded and smiled.

Xiao Zhang and his son also felt much better in their hearts. They nodded with a comfortable smile, and started chatting about other gossips.

That night, it snowed again in the middle of the night, and it was surprisingly cold for several days until the Chinese New Year. The mantra of the big guys when they meet and greet on weekdays has also changed from "Where are you going?" and "Have you eaten yet" to "It's so cold!"

Lian Fangzhou looked at the well-trimmed roof and the windows covered with thick window paper, and felt particularly proud of her foresight.

There is still a thriving charcoal fire burning in the house, and the brothers and sisters are wearing warm and thick clothes. This winter, no matter how cold it is, there is nothing to worry about.

Lian Fangzhou specially bought a large fat pig weighing 150 to 60 catties to slaughter, and invited Aunt Zhang, Zhang Lizheng, Niu Shi, cousin's family and neighbors to have a lively meal of slaughtering pigs.

The family kept half of the pork, and the other half was sent to the compound for them to share. Of course, Qin Feng and Su Ziji had their own share, and she specifically told Mrs. Li to stay alone and give them a separate cooking.

Qin Feng and Su Ziji will take care of those servants in the future, and they must show that they are superior and different from others.

In this age, the master must not be too approachable. This is what Lian Fangzhou personally learned.

It's the New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye, and the whole village seems to be filled with a strong New Year's atmosphere, and there are laughter and laughter everywhere. No matter how poor people are, they will celebrate the new year happily today, trying to find a good meal, so as to have a good omen in the coming year.
