Chapter 147 Let’s share the wolf meat together!

Qiao Ran waved her hand: "Auntie, you don't have to be so polite. We are all fellow villagers. We are escaping together and facing various difficulties and dangers together. We should help each other. It is not a big favor."

Qiao Ran said it calmly, but Aunt Tian secretly decided to keep this great kindness in her heart and let her son always remember his sister Ran's life-saving grace.

Qiao Ran was helping the injured villagers treat their wounds, while the uninjured men were already treating the killed wolves.

All the wolf carcasses were gathered together and counted. There were 18 wolf carcasses in total.

Wolf meat is not tasty, it is astringent, sour, woody and hard.

But for these refugees who find it difficult to have enough to eat while fleeing the famine, as long as there is meat, no matter what kind of meat it is, it is a delicious meal.

Even though they had just received a lot of food from Qiao Ran and the Wu family, there was no telling when the long journey to escape would be completed, and the food would not last long.

Eating only wild vegetables and roots will make them feel weak. Eating meat is a good thing for them to replenish their physical strength.

Everyone who had just eaten a delicious meal of venison began to share the wolf meat excitedly.

"Come on, come on, everyone, come here and share the wolf meat together!"

Qiao Erhe held a sharp boning knife given by Qiao Ran and was skinning the wolf while greeting everyone.

These wolf skins can also be sold for money, so you have to pay attention to your skills when peeling them, and don't peel them to pieces. The more complete the skin, the more valuable it is.

A dozen wolf skins, peeled off and tanned, can be sold to some fur merchants the next time they encounter a town, and they can earn at least a few hundred taels of silver.

The skinned wolf meat is distributed to all the people who help to kill the wolves.

The Qiao family also got a small share of half of the wolf meat. Although Qiao Ran didn't like eating wolf meat, she knew that wolf meat was also a medicinal food in traditional Chinese medicine.

Wolf meat is not delicious, but it has a warming and tonic effect.

It can nourish the five internal organs, warm the stomach and intestines, protect against wind and cold, replenish qi, replenish the essence, nourish fatigue, etc. It is suitable for people with cold accumulation in the abdomen, but should not be eaten by those with yin deficiency and internal heat.

Everyone is working hard on the road, and overexertion will lead to fatigue.

Consumption sickness is also a common internal disease in traditional Chinese medicine in modern times. It is a sub-health state caused by excessive fatigue, mental stress, irritability, serious illness and long-term illness, loss of vitality, etc.

Therefore, eating several meals of warm and tonic wolf meat is very beneficial to the recovery of everyone’s essence, blood and vitality.

Qiao Ran asked her grandma to take cover and put the large piece of wolf meat in her own space to keep it fresh.

Although the weather is gradually getting cooler, the temperature during the day is still very high, and it will easily deteriorate and smell if left outside.

Since several servants of the Wu family also killed the wolves with everyone, more than ten kilograms of the wolf meat was also divided among the Wu family.

The person who received the meat would send one or two people to happily marinate or cook the meat so that it could be stored without getting smelly.

Others learned their lesson and used fire to dry the remaining blood stains on the ground to prevent the smell of blood from attracting other beasts.

After finishing these things, it was already midnight. Everyone packed up and prepared to rest. We have to continue our journey tomorrow!

However, everyone is destined not to have a good rest tonight.

Two people in the Qiao Dewang family were killed and one was seriously injured.

The whole family was very sad that the two strong laborers had become like this, but they still watched other villagers happily praising Qiao Ran and sharing the wolf meat.

Only a few soft-hearted women came over to express their condolences. The others glanced at him from a distance and quickly turned away, fearing that they would be blackmailed by this shameless family.

The Qiao Dewang family was naturally very angry, secretly hating the callousness of these villagers. Two people in his family had died, and no one came to take pity on them or send them anything to express their condolences.

Qiao Fagui's body was chewed beyond recognition by hungry wolves. Huang took one look at it and rolled his eyes and fainted. After waking up, he couldn't help but vomited out the little food left in his stomach until he vomited until He vomited out green bile and never dared to look at his second son again.

As the only strong man in the family, Qiao Dewang could only bite the bullet, resist retching, collect the stumps and broken arms of his second son, wrap them in a broken straw mat, and dig them in the forest. The pit was buried.

The body of the second daughter-in-law was cleaned up by Huang and the eldest daughter-in-law together, but there was not even a broken straw mat. They were just carried directly to the pit and buried together.

The second son, the couple, had only been married for a few years and had only one daughter, Bianzi, who was just over two years old. She was ignorant and didn't understand anything. She was pinned to the ground and kowtowed three times by adults, which was considered as a farewell to her parents.

As for the future of this girl, Qiao Dewang has already planned it, and he will adopt her to the eldest couple and let her consider her uncle and aunt as her parents.

In the future, her family will never tell her that she is not the biological child of the eldest couple, let alone let her know that her biological parents were killed by her biological uncle.

After burying the two dead, they began to worry about the injured again.

Qiao Fafu's left shoulder and back were injured, he lost too much blood, and was frightened by the tragic death of his second brother. He fell unconscious and developed a high fever.

Qiao Dewang had no choice but to ask the village chief for some herbs to stop bleeding and reduce fever.

The medicine to stop bleeding was crushed directly and applied to the wound, but the medicine to reduce fever had to be decocted and taken.

Qiao Honglian sat in front of the earthen stove and made a fire to cook medicine. She had a bowl of thin rice porridge and a piece of bitter and dry wild vegetable pancake for dinner. It would be fine if she fell asleep at this moment, but she had to get up to work again, so she was very hungry. My stomach growled.

As she numbly stuffed dry branches into the stove, she was thinking about the satisfied smile on Qiao Ran's face when she ate meat and drank soup, and the scene when the villagers praised Qiao Ran.

Qiao Honglian was really filled with hatred. Why was it that she was not the one favored by the old god?

Why don't I get praise from everyone because I don't have Qiao Ran's abilities?

Why is Qiao Ran treated as a maid and slave while she is loved by her family?

Why is Qiao Ran so lucky, but she is so miserable?

In the past, she could laugh at Qiao Ran for being a wild child without a father, but now, her own father was lying on the ground, his life or death uncertain.

Even if he can be revived, the shoulder with broken bones must be disabled. What is the difference between a disabled father and a dead father?

From now on, her father will no longer be able to work with his hands, and many tasks will be greatly reduced. The second uncle and second aunt died again, and the family suddenly lost two and a half laborers. The family's life will definitely be more difficult in the future.

As for myself, I'm afraid it will be even harder and more miserable.

Qiao Honglian had this idea, and so did Huang.

She only gave birth to two sons, and her family was still living such a difficult life. Now that one of her two sons is dead and one is injured, how will she live in the future?
