Chapter 149: I’m Feeling a Bit Uncomfortable
Lu Xiangxiang snickered, her laughter crystal clear, sparking a gleam in the rheumy eyes of the leper squatting by the fire, his shifty eyes rolling around.
Shen Meng brought Lu Mingkai back home, where Lu Zhenping was sharpening a knife in the courtyard.
"Sharpening for what? Is that, a chopper?"
"Mhm, I’ve asked someone to tell Xiao Bin, we’ll head to the mountains tomorrow afternoon to hunt game. Just by looking at the grain distribution, you can tell our family won’t get much meat. If we don’t hunt for some, we won’t have any meat to eat this year."
Shen Meng: "...."
Nonsense, she had already taken two leg portions of meat from her space earlier, she would cook them for dinner tonight, hmph!!!
"Sleepy!"
"My son’s sleepy, I’ll catch a nap with him, too. There’s meat and cabbage in the kitchen, can you chop it up for the filling? I’m going to make buns, dumplings, and wontons tonight. Chop up all that meat. Instead of complaining about me, better do more work. You’ve got so much unused energy every day."
Lu Zhenping: "..."
The afternoon they slaughtered the pig, Mingyang, Ming Liang, and Ming Fang were squatting to the side, waiting for unwanted parts like the pluck or bones to be discarded so they could swoop in and grab them. Then, by roasting them according to their mother’s method, they could eat them and that way, all the village kids would have to acknowledge them as the boss.
