Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1524

Chapter 1524: Sharing Meat ( 2 )

An hour later, the wild boar had been butchered, and the meat, bones, and organs had been taken care of. Now, with the staff weighing everything, everyone waited in anticipation.

"The wild boar weighs 405 kilograms. The total meat is 350 kilograms, with the bones weighing around 55 kilograms. To avoid any discontent, we will divide every part in half. Does anyone have any objections?" An Xuyuan asked.

Hearing this, the villagers had no objections. With the meat divided equally, they wouldn’t have to worry that Dong Li and Chen Jianmin would take all the best parts.

Seeing that no one objected, An Xuyuan nodded and added, "Since the amount of meat is limited, it will be distributed based on the household register. Each household will receive the same amount."

This time, the villagers with fewer family members cheered, while those with large families were unhappy. But since the meat had been cut and each family received the same amount and same parts, no one could complain.

While the villagers lined up to get their shares, Dong Li turned to his junior brother and said, "Ah Min, you choose first."

Chen Jianmin didn’t stand on ceremony and made his pick. His family’s lard was almost used up, so he chose two-thirds of the fatty meat, some pork belly, and bones. He knew that Lu Jueyu loved lean meat, so he left all the lean meat for her.

When Dong Li saw this, he smiled and said, "Ah Min, my family still has lots of lard. You can take all the fatty meat. Also, I will take the intestines, trotters, and the head, so you take more of the meat."

Since he said so, Chen Jianmin had no objection. They divided the meat for a while, and when Chen Jianmin went to get basins, Dong Li gave him more meat. He hadn’t killed the boar, and he had already taken all the blood, so it was reasonable to give his junior brother more meat.

After dividing the meat, he put it in his bamboo basket and left before Chen Jianmin returned. As he left the Chen family’s house, he noticed that Han Lihua and Han Liling were following him after getting their share of meat.

Seeing how thin they were, Dong Li recalled his sister’s condition before they were adopted. So, he stopped in his tracks and turned around. He waved at them and said, "Come over."

The two sisters already regarded him and Chen Jianmin as their benefactors. So when they heard his words, they trotted over obediently.

Dong Li put down the basin in his hand and the bamboo basket he carried before rummaging through it. After a moment, he took out a pig trotter, some pork belly, and mushrooms.

Afterward, he placed them in Han Liling’s bamboo basket and said, "Both of you are very brave today, but you must have been frightened. Take these back and ask your mother to make something delicious."

Hearing this, Han Lihua nodded and replied with a grin, "Thank you, Brother."

Patting her head, Dong Li said, "Next time, if you want to go to the mountain foothills, don’t go alone. You can come to my house and go there with me and my sister."

Since Li Lingyun already had plenty of meat, Dong Li didn’t count his share. He planned to cook the blood and give some of it to him later. After giving half of the meat to his eldest uncle and grandpa, he went to the Lu family’s house.

After giving the rest of the meat to his maternal grandparents and uncles, he finally returned home with a basin of wild boar blood and some mushrooms he had found.

That evening, the scent of meat dishes filled the air as all the villagers prepared a meat dish. While the portion of meat they received was small, it was better than nothing.

At Li Chenmo’s house, Dong Li cooked a big pot of wild boar blood dishes and sent one-third to his second uncle. The rest of the dishes were eaten by the family during dinner.

After a satisfying meal, the family washed up and returned to their rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, the news about how Chen Jianmin hunted a fully-grown wild boar with Dong Li’s help spread throughout the entire Xie Village. Even villagers from nearby villages heard about the matter.

When the Wei family heard the news, the entire household was shocked, especially Father Wei.
