System: The Path of a Mortal Being Stronger Through Being a Mother
Chapter 15 The Mother of Unfilial Sons Part 15
Lin Miao took a look and saw that it was Zheng the hunter from the village.
She put her hands on her hips, threw the deer aside, and said contemptuously: "Why, you want to steal it?"
Hunter Zheng said seriously, "The law stipulates that if someone hunts without a license, the hunter can seize their prey."
As he said this, he stretched out his hand and tried to pull the deer away.
Lin Miao had never seen such a shameless person, so she hit his hand.
Hunter Zheng cried out, "You bitch, I'm going to sue you and make you pay double the money."
Lin Miao showed her ID contemptuously.
The surrounding villagers didn't know him, but Hunter Zheng knew him.
He left in embarrassment, but in his heart, he hated Lin Miao and felt that she had offended him.
Wang Sen waited all day yesterday, but his mother didn't come back. He was very worried, but what could he do?
Not only did he not know where his mother would be in the mountains, he also did not dare to enter the mountains.
Lin Miao became a hunter, but not many people in the village knew about it. When she didn't come home at night, everyone was talking about it.
Many gossipers started spreading rumors, and finally there was a rumor that Lin Miao was eaten by wild beasts in the mountains, and the rumor sounded like it was true.
Wang Hai heard about it and went to Wang Sen's house to scold him: "You are such a good third son. You don't know how to be filial and let your mother go up the mountain and get into danger."
He even wanted to break the lock of his mother's room, shouting: "This room belongs to my mother, everything in it belongs to my mother, and I have a share of my mother's things!"
This made Wang Sen very angry. His eldest brother didn't even worry about their mother's safety, but was now in a hurry to divide the things, as if their mother was really dead. He was so heartless.
He suddenly understood his mother's sadness.
He didn't get much sleep last night, so as soon as he heard a noise, he came out to see if it was his mother coming back.
Although his mother said she might not come back at night, it was the first time he felt worried about her.
Looking at this shameless elder brother, he felt chilled. Was he easy to bully just because he was young?
Wang Sen ran into the kitchen, took out a chipped kitchen knife and rushed forward: "That room belongs to my mother, no one can touch it."
Wang Hai and Fang were so frightened by his fierceness that they ran away screaming, shouting, "When mother comes back, I will let her teach you a lesson about your bad temper. You don't know how to respect your elder brother..."
Wang Sen said fiercely: "Get out..."
Tears started flowing down his face. Where had the brother who loved him when he was a child gone? How had he changed as he grew up?
……
Now as soon as he heard the sound, he ran out.
Seeing that his mother really came back, he didn't even notice that Lin Miao was carrying a stag on her back. He just felt a sigh of relief and his feet staggered.
Lin Miao put the deer in the yard.
He said to Wang Sen, "Old Third, go get some cold water and some food. I'm starving."
In order to hurry on her way, she hadn't eaten anything this morning. The biscuits she had eaten in the morning had long been digested. She drank up all the water along the way.
Wang Sen finally reacted and quickly poured some cold boiled water and brought it to his mother.
Another large bowl of rice was brought, with some fried vegetables with oil residue on top.
Lin Miao looked at her hands and asked him to fetch some clean water to wash them before starting to eat.
While eating, she asked Wang Sen to go to the head of the village to hire a mule cart to go to the county town, as the price of the goods could not be sold in the town.
Wang Sen went directly to the headman's house. His mother said that he could go there today and come back tomorrow, and that food and lodging would be provided, and the fee would be 200 coins.
The ox cart was too slow, and Lin Miao was afraid that the deer would not live to see tomorrow.
When Wang Sen arrived at the headman's house, the headman had also heard that Lin had caught a live stag. This was a big deal as it was worth a lot of money.
Without saying a word, he asked his second son Xu Qingsong to pack up, drive the mule cart, and take Wang Sen to his home.
Lin Miao finished her meal in a few bites and drank some water. Seeing Wang Sen coming back, she picked up the deer and put it on the mule cart.
When the villagers saw her put a buck weighing dozens of kilograms on the car easily, they put some of their thoughts aside.
Such a thin old woman is so strong.
Before, everyone knew that she was very strong, and they laughed at her for being a woman and being like a wild mule.
Now, you can't provoke her casually. My man doesn't have the strength to do that.
Lin Miao asked Lao San and Xu Qingsong to look after the deer while she packed up and set off.
She went into the house and changed her clothes. After a while, she got in the car and said to Wang Sen, "Don't walk around these few days. Look after the house. I'll be back after I sell the things."
Wang Sen was very happy and quickly responded: "Don't worry, Mom, I'm here for you."
Humph, if big brother dares to come to his house again, he won’t be polite.
Wang Sen gave all the money he had left to his mother.
The boy was smart enough to know that his family was poor, so he bought an old pot that someone had discarded, leaving him with only one or two taels of silver.
Lin Miao left him a wild rabbit for him to stew and eat. She had already put the other wild rabbit and the chicken in the space, and then set off.
Their mule cart was moving in front, and behind it was a group of villagers, talking excitedly.
Lin Miao and the other man ignored them and drove the mule cart all the way to the county town.
After all, it was a mule cart, so it was much faster. We reached the county town in less than two hours. If we were any later, the city gate would have been closed.
Lin Miao paid the entrance fee, 2 cents per person and 8 cents per mule cart.
Livestock have to pay a fee to enter the city, and they have to put a bag behind their buttocks to prevent them from defecating anywhere...
Xu Qingsong knew all of this. He would go to the city to visit his brother every once in a while. His brother Xu Qingfeng was already a scholar and was studying in the county school.
Lin Miao asked him to pull the deer directly to the largest restaurant, in front of Jufulou, and asked the waiter to ask the owner whether he would accept the live deer.
After a while, the shopkeeper of Jufulou came out. When he saw the deer, his eyes lit up.
Lin Miao saw a clue and thought it was exactly what he needed. She didn't have such good eyesight before, but now she has a very good eye and other people's expressions can hardly escape her attention.
The owner of Jufulou was in need of such a rare item because he was going to host a banquet tomorrow, so he naturally wanted to get it.
Even if it is not needed, this stag is still valuable. The men of those wealthy families love stag blood the most...
He looked at the stag carefully. Although its leg was injured, it could live for some time if it was well taken care of.
Knowing that Lin Miao was the owner of the deer, he said, "Madam, can we have a word with her?"
Lin Miao nodded and asked Xu Qingsong to help watch the deer. Xu Qingsong nodded and told her not to worry, and Lin Miao followed the shopkeeper into Jufulou.
The two bargained for a while, and finally settled on 180 taels. Lin Miao specially asked the shopkeeper to prepare some small change and a copper coin for her.
It's difficult to sell at a higher price in a small county, and the shopkeeper didn't try to lower the price.
She treated Xu Qingsong to a good meal in this restaurant, which cost her one tael of silver.
Although Xu Qingsong's family was relatively well-off, he had never eaten in such a large restaurant.
When he saw that Lin Miao had ordered four dishes, two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, he hurriedly said, "Aunt Wang, that's enough, you can't eat so much."
Lin Miao just told him to be polite and planned what to do tomorrow...
