70: Raising a wife, the whole village is inhaling the aroma of stewed meat.

Why did you bring back four wolves again?

"Mom, you're right! I really did encounter a pack of wolves today!"

Zhou Feitian immediately said worriedly, "You're really lucky, kid. Wolves aren't exactly benevolent birds. Are you alright?"

"No, I'm perfectly fine!"

Zhou Qingwen smiled in a rough, manly manner: "Dad, Mom, I'm thinking of cutting off a wolf's leg and sending it to Yu Yalan tonight."

Zhou Feitian looked at the wolf and said, "It's up to you. You decide."

"Also, I've kept all the wolf kidneys for myself this time. I'll sell them; there are people who specialize in buying wolf kidneys, and they can fetch a good amount of money."

Zhou Qinghe then said, "I still remember the aroma of the wolf kidneys I stir-fried with ginger last time. Third brother, your cooking skills are amazing! Could you save a pair to stir-fry together?"

Zhou Qingwen smiled and said, "Alright, brother, then keep a pair!"

"Alright! Let's get started!"

"Second brother, skin the wolf, I'll sell it tomorrow."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll peel them in a bit."

The sister-in-law's eyes widened in disbelief. So many wolves?

The second sister-in-law looked at it and said, "How much money will our third son make this time?"

The sister-in-law exclaimed in surprise, "That's hard to say."

"We'll find out tomorrow. Let's go stir-fry some more wolf meat; the third brother must be starving."

Zhou Qingwen said, "Yes, please, sister-in-law, stir-fry more meat and add more chili peppers!"

The older sister-in-law immediately grabbed a large bunch of chili peppers from under the eaves and said, "Okay, I'll definitely put in a really spicy kick!"

"Second sister-in-law, keep the fire going, let's make some spicy stir-fried wolf belly!"

"good!"

Then, the kitchen started stir-frying some fragrant and spicy wolf belly, which smelled absolutely delicious.

Zhou Qingwen put all his darts back in his own shed.

Although the shed was simple, it did provide some shelter.

Zhou Qingwen changed his clothes inside the house, revealing several abrasions on his body. Just then, Liu Yue'e came in and saw him: "Oh dear! Third brother, you have several wounds on your back!"

"Mom, it's okay, you'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Zhou Feitian stepped forward and said, "Let me see."

Zhou Feitian looked at it and said, "Yue'e, go get some medicinal wine. The bleeding has stopped, but it needs to be disinfected."

Zhou Qingwen had no choice but to go shirtless, and under the dim light of the oil lamp, Zhou Feitian carefully washed his hands with medicated wine first, and then applied the medicated wine to them with cotton.

"Hiss~"

"Does it hurt a lot?"

"There's a little, but it's not a big deal, Dad, you can keep applying it."

"You brat, next time you see a wolf, stay far away. You killed that wolf with a dart? How could the pack possibly let you go?"

"Because I was almost at the village, the wolf pack didn't follow me."

"Thank goodness, otherwise the injuries would have been much more than this."

"Yes, I'll be careful."

"Put your clothes on! Don't take a shower today. Just wipe it down and don't touch the wound. It will be fine in a few days. Rest at home for the next few days and don't go up the mountain."

"Okay, sure."

Zhou Qingwen naturally understood that if he went up the mountain again with so many wolves, wouldn't the whole village be driven mad with jealousy?

Others went up the mountain and got their legs injured by wild boars, leaving them lame!

And what about him?

Several wolves were brought into the house!

The villagers must be devastated!

Zhou Feitian then said, "After nightfall, we'll go together to send the wolves we're going to sell away. We don't need to wait until tomorrow."

"Okay, sure."

Zhou Feitian picked up the dirty clothes again and handed them to Liu Yue'e, saying, "Go wash your clothes. I have something to say to Lao San."

"Okay, sure."

Liu Yue'e then went out.

"I have no objection to you sending wolf legs to the cowshed, but after you send the wolf legs, you should also put a small bottle of my medicinal wine over there. I saw that family during the day and they seemed to have several injuries and were bleeding."

I stopped their bleeding during the day. I was planning to bring them some medicinal wine when you got back, but since you're bringing wolf legs, I'll bring the medicinal wine along with them.

Zhou Qingwen said excitedly, "Thank you, Dad. If it weren't for you protecting their family, they would definitely have been bullied by the villagers."

"Don't worry, they've finished their work for today. This afternoon, I had your older brother go over and help them for almost two hours."

Zhou Qingwen nodded: "Okay, once we sell the wolf meat, we'll take out the money and divide it among the whole family. Life will only get better!"

"Hey kid, I'm telling you this not so you can get a share of the money, but if you're willing to help your older brother and second brother's families, you'll be the leader of your own family!"

Third brother, you've really grown up!

Zhou Qingwen said excitedly, "Dad, I understand. A family must be united. If I go hunting, my eldest brother and second brother's family will help with things at home, and I will feel more at ease."

Besides, if the brothers aren't united, outsiders will come and bully us! I understand that!

Zhou Feitian said urgently, "Today, the Yu family almost got bullied. Luckily, your second brother noticed early and went up to argue with them, which is how we managed to grab the land closest to us, so we didn't have to be assigned wasteland."

Zhou Qingwen nodded: "Okay, Dad. My eldest and second brothers have treated me well. I want to date Yalan from the Yu family. If it were someone else, they would probably make a fuss about me separating from the family or even kicking me out of the village."

My family members don't object to me at all, and they've even helped my partner's family like this. I feel so warm-hearted!

"Well, if you like this Yalan girl, then get along well with her. As for that Luo Xiuqin, I don't think she's any good either; she's a complete ingrate!"

We used to save our food and fed her for three years, and this is how she treats us! Ugh! She's despicable!

"Dad, I've kept this to myself. I'll make Luo Xiuqin confess when the opportunity arises!"

Zhou Feitian's eyes flickered slightly as he said, "You can't vomit anymore, but you shouldn't associate with Luo Xiuqin anymore, lest you upset Yu Jiayalan, the girl you're dating!"

"Okay, sure."

"Okay, I'll go wash my hands first, then we can eat."

Just then, my sister-in-law called out from outside, "Dad, third brother, come out, dinner's ready."

Zhou Feitian responded, "Mm."

"They're here."

The third brother, Zhou Qingwen, also came out wearing a small gray shirt, without even buttoning it up, revealing his lean and capable physique.

The sight made the eldest and second sisters-in-law blush.

The eldest brother saw this and said, "Third brother, get dressed!"

Zhou Qingwen immediately said, embarrassed, "I'll button it up, I'll button it up right away!"

Zhou Qingwen immediately turned his back and buttoned up his clothes.

The moon was just beginning to shine, and the family sat down to eat outside the shed.

At this point, Zhou Feitian said, "The foundation of this house is almost finished. We'll start laying the adobe bricks on top tomorrow. If things go smoothly, it should take about four or five days. If things go slowly, it should take about seven days to lay the tiles."

The family took two boxes of steamed buns, a bowl of wolf meat soup, and several stir-fried dishes.

The meal was very satisfying.

"My sister-in-law's cooking skills have improved; the meat she stir-fries is getting more and more fragrant."

Zhou Qingwen ate meat while talking, his mouth stuffed full of meat!
