Chapter 9 Wild Goose Stew

When everyone's voices subsided, Liu Shuigan said: "Lin Chunniang, where is that big bird? You take it out first."

Lin Chunniang had a sullen face, went into the house, took out the big bird and put it on the ground.

Liu Shuigan stepped forward to take a look and found an arrow stuck in the belly of the wild goose.

He pulled out the arrow, and there was a small mark engraved on the arrowhead. It was the watermark mark of the Peizhou Army, indicating that the arrow that shot the wild goose came from the Peizhou Army.

He said to a group of villagers: "This wild goose has a short arrow stuck in its belly. It must have been shot by someone before it fell down."

Liu Zhaodi thought that the village chief's uncle was on her side, so she nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's it, that's why I picked it up."

Liu Shuigan asked her: "Sister-in-law, where did you pick it up?"

Liu Zhaodi rolled her eyes and opened her mouth: "The wild prodigal in front."

The Yeluzi is right in front of the Lin family, not far from here.

Liu Zhaodi also knew that the place where she picked up the wild geese must not be too far away from the Lin family, otherwise Lin Chunniang's attempt to snatch her wild geese would not be settled.

Liu Shuigan: "Let's go, take me there and have a look."

Liu Zhaodi was not afraid of being exposed, so she led Liu Shuigan and a group of villagers who were watching the fun, and pointed to the location, "Here, this is it."

Liu Shuigan took a closer look and said, "Are you sure you picked up the wild goose here?"

Liu Zhaodi: "That could be wrong. I came out from home with a bowl in my hand in the morning and wanted to come here to bask in the sun. I saw a wild goose lying here and quickly picked it up. As a result, that dead girl Lin Chunniang came over to follow me. He grabbed me, and because of his strength, he even hit me, causing me to drop the bowl. Uncle, you have to make the decision for me!"

Liu Shuigen did not answer her question, stepped aside, and said to the others: "You guys should come and take a look."

The others didn't know what was going on and craned their necks to look.

Liu Jingen asked: "Third brother, what are you looking at? What your sister-in-law said can still be false. You should make the decision for her quickly."

The third brother is really hard at work.

It doesn’t matter what his affairs are like, just keep it to your own family and ask questions about this and that.

Liu Shuigen raised his eyebrows: "Making the decision? What is the decision? Did she pick up the wild goose? Brother, take a closer look. If the wild goose really fell here as she said, why are the reeds here so good? The roots aren’t broken? Why aren’t there even any indentations on the grass?”

I really thought he was blind!
Liu Zhaodi was dumbfounded. Why is this different from what she thought?
I'm afraid this village chief's brother-in-law has something wrong with his brain. He doesn't care about his family and is looking for trouble with her!
She quickly changed her words: "Uncle, I remembered wrongly, it wasn't here, it was there."

She pointed to a place again, which was a place of compacted ground.

Liu Shuigan gave her a sharp look, and Liu Zhaodi shrank in response to his glare.

The others were not stupid. After being prompted by Liu Shuigen, they reacted and looked at Liu Zhaodi with contempt.

"Liu Zhaodi, didn't you just say that you fell here? Why did you change your story now?"

"The wild goose really fell into the Lin family, right?"

"Liu Zhaodi likes to take advantage of others. I think what she says may not be true."

Liu Shuigan waved his hand: "Let's go and have a look at the Lin family yard."

Arriving at the Lin family yard, Liu Shuigen saw the signs he expected -

"Come and take a look, there is a bloodstain here. The wild goose was hit by an arrow. Although it did not die and flew over our village, it must have been injured, so when it fell, the blood from the wound flowed to the ground. There is also There were a few feathers dropped by wild geese.”

Liu Shuigan picked up a feather that had been trampled into the soil and held it up for everyone to see.

"So, the wild goose did fall in the Lin family's yard. Liu Zhaodi, what else do you have to say?"

Liu Zhaodi: "..." Because her surname is Liu, the people of the Liu clan are naturally on her side, but that doesn't mean that the people of the Liu clan are as indifferent to right and wrong as she is.

After all, there are still a few bad people in the crowd.

After learning the truth, the people surnamed Liu also felt very embarrassed.

"Liu Zhaodi, why are you so shameless? The wild goose obviously fell in the Lin family's yard. Why do you say you picked it up yourself?"

"She didn't take enough advantage. Last time she even pulled a big radish from my vegetable patch."

"Isn't the Lin family always very unlucky? It's really strange that a wild goose fell into her yard."

"A wild goose that big must have more than ten kilograms of meat, right? The Lin family is very lucky."

"That's the little doll picked up by the Lin family? She's so handsome and looks lucky. Could it be that she brought the Lin family's good luck?"

……

Liu Zhaodi was also thick-skinned. After the truth about Ye Ge was revealed, she even said: "Brother-in-law, forget about Ye Ge. What do you think about Lin Chunniang beating me? Look, she knocked out all my good teeth." , the slap marks on my face haven’t gone away yet…”

Liu Shuigan glanced at her and said, "This is a matter between you women. I have no control over it. If you don't accept it, just fight back. What's the use of calling me?"

Liu Zhaodi: "..."

Lin Chunniang smiled.

Lin Cuiniang also smiled.

She touched Lin Xi's head in her arms and said, "Xi Bao, Uncle Shui Gen is a good man."

Lin Xi spit out milk bubbles against the blue sky.

When the truth came to light, the villagers dispersed. After all, they still had a lot of work to do, but they didn't have that much free time to waste here.

When everyone was gone, Lin Chunniang turned around and saw the little girl holding the dead wild goose, stroking the fluffy and smooth feathers with her little hands, and muttering something in her mouth.

She walked over and listened and found that what she said was: "Big fat goose, eat meat."

Lin Chunniang chuckled and touched her sister's head, "Okay, let's eat meat tonight. Later, I will pluck the feathers from the wild goose and stew it. When your second brother and others come back in the evening, we will start eating." "

Just as she was told, Lin Chunniang boiled water, soaked the wild goose in it, plucked the feathers, and processed them cleanly. No internal organs or intestines were wasted, and they were washed cleanly without any odor.

There are no knives at home, not even kitchen knives or wood knives. After all, knives are made of iron and are not cheap.

Lin Chunniang went to her husband's house and borrowed a kitchen knife, chopped the wild goose into pieces, put it into the pottery cauldron, scooped in two large ladles of water, lit the fire with a straw handle, and then poked dry wood into the stove hole. Burn slowly.

Lin Yuniang squatted on the side, holding her little face in her hands and staring without blinking.

Lin Chunniang rubbed her head and said, "Yu'er, help sister watch the fire."

Lin Yuniang nodded: "I'll help Sister look at the fire."

Afraid that Liu Zhaodi would come to cause trouble again, Lin Chunniang did not go out again. She went to the back of the house to tidy up the vegetable patch, water it and fertilize it.

Lin Cuiniang gently placed the sleeping Xibao on the bed and touched her little hand lovingly. This child was so well-behaved, not noisy at all, and easy to take care of.

He was so sinful that he was abandoned by his parents after he was born and lived in the Lin family. Until now, he didn't even have a drink of milk.

But when she picked up her needle and thread to mend her clothes, she put all these thoughts aside.
