I fought guerrilla warfare in the Yimeng Mountains during the Anti-Japanese War

Liu Caiyun didn't come back to her senses for a long time. She was really scared this time. She looked at the wild boar with blood gushing from its head, looked at Heiwa who was in high spirits after recovering, and looked at a hand reaching out to her. The blur in front of her eyes gradually became clear. She saw Chen Feng reaching out to pull her, so she handed his hand over. Chen Feng exerted force and Liu Caiyun was pulled up, but her legs were still very weak. Chen Feng quickly supported her shoulders. After a long while, she felt that she could stand up, and then she said to Chen Feng with a red face:

All right.

After Chen Feng let go and saw that everything was fine, he asked Heiwa to reload the ammunition quickly. He also loaded another bullet to make sure the magazine was full. Then he dealt with the wild boar. He took out a hatchet from his waist, which had been sharpened a long time ago. He cut the wild boar's neck, cutting the aorta. Blood flowed out. Only by releasing the blood can the quality of the meat be guaranteed. Otherwise, it would be bloody red, which would not affect eating, but would affect selling.

Leaving the bag and bullet belt on his back to Heiwa, Chen Feng carried the wild boar on his back, lifted the Hanyang rifle, and asked Heiwa to support Liu Caiyun. If they didn't hurry home, it would be dark. After being supported by Heiwa for a while, Liu Caiyun could walk by herself. She was really scared just now. Looking at Cheng Hao in front of her who was carrying the wild boar as if walking on flat ground, she admired him very much. It was good enough that she didn't have to carry anything. It would be unreasonable to let the little boy Heiwa support her. In order to save time, it was a bit tiring to walk back. Liu Caiyun was out of breath, but seeing that Chen Feng was still calm with the wild boar on his back, she didn't feel embarrassed to ask Chen Feng to take a break before walking. Heiwa was obviously too excited and kept chattering all the way. He also contributed to killing the wild boar. Chen Feng told the two of them to try to talk in a relaxed manner when they go back, just say that they saw a wild boar and shot it to death before it ran away, otherwise they might not be allowed to go out next time. Heiwa agreed readily, and Liu Caiyun also stuck out her tongue mischievously. This younger brother has grown up and has become more thoughtful.

Liu Minggui had been waiting behind Chen Feng's house for a long time. It was getting dark. Why hadn't the three kids come back yet? If she had known, she wouldn't have let her daughter go up the mountain with her. She was so scared. If she ran into bandits, it would be the end. Why didn't she think about this last night? Although the bandits in the vicinity rarely harmed the people around them, if her beautiful daughter was encountered in the mountains, she would be kidnapped immediately. Chen Weiping also came back earlier today. He was mainly worried that Chen Feng would run around with his daughter. Seeing Liu Minggui waiting anxiously, he comforted her:

Don't be anxious, it's not dark yet, I think he'll be back soon.

Comfort didn't work. Liu Minggui was still panicked. Suddenly, he saw three figures coming down the mountain. He hurried to meet them, and Chen Weiping followed them.

Liu Caiyun saw his father from a distance, and felt a little aggrieved because of fear, but he did not show it, and said carelessly:

Dad, my brother Xiaofeng killed another wild boar and said I should get a share of it too?

Liu Minggui then noticed the wild boar Chen Feng was carrying. My God, this wild boar must weigh 400 kilograms! He quickly circled around his daughter:

Caiyun, you’re not hurt, are you?

Liu Caiyun smiled sweetly:

Without Dad, the wild boar was shot dead by Xiaofeng and Heiwa as soon as it showed its head, and they didn't even have time to run away.

Liu Minggui breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he was not injured.

Several people returned to Chen Feng's home together. Chen Feng put down the wild boar and breathed a sigh of relief. He felt better than the day before when he went into the mountains. This wild boar was estimated to be almost 400 kilograms, but it was easier to carry than the last 300-kilogram wild boar. He sent Heiwa home to call his parents. Heiwa also made a contribution this time. What was given was given, and what was divided according to the merit was divided. The two should not be confused. Liu Minggui found out how the wild boar was killed. His daughter did not help, so he could not shamelessly share the wild boar. They were all fellow villagers, and face was more precious than pork.

However, Liu Caiyun didn't want to leave and wanted to have a free meal of pork. Liu Minggui had no choice but to wait with a thick face, determined not to let his daughter ask for anything.

Cheng Hao sharpened the hatchet and kitchen knife again, waiting for his father to boil water. He thought that before killing the Japanese, he would kill two wild boars first, just as a practice. When the Japanese came, he would kill them like wild boars!

Uncle Tian and Aunt Tian came and heard that Xiaofeng had killed another wild boar. Heiwa was very excited and shouted that it was his contribution and he could get a share of the pork. The couple knew their son's weight. They were frightened when they heard about the wild boar at first, but when they saw their son jumping around, they slowly listened to their son's explanation of the battle record and realized that their son's gun belonged to someone else and the shot he fired was probably useless. It must be Xiaofeng's shot in the head that was fatal. They knew what was going on, and the couple was dragged by Heiwa to Chen Feng's house.

Seeing that everyone was present and the water had not yet boiled, Chen Feng proposed a distribution plan. In this situation, his father Chen Weiping could not interrupt casually. At most, he could say a few words of reason in the event of unfair distribution. Chen Feng said to the few people:

I had been planning to help my dad wipe the dried sweet potatoes today. Last night Uncle Liu brought some dumplings over and asked Heiwa and I to accompany Sister Caiyun into the mountains to relax. At noon we had dumplings made by Caiyun's mother in the mountains. Heiwa and I hunted the wild boar, and we all know the situation. My family hasn't finished eating the offal yet, and it's gone bad after being left out for too long. You two families can discuss and divide it equally. You two families can split the pig's head in half, I'll take one leg of pork, and you two families can split the other leg equally. Heiwa will take the hind leg, and Sister Caiyun will take the front leg. How about it?

Liu Minggui and Tian Fuli both realized that Xiaofeng was trying to highlight the contributions of Heiwa and Caiyun. They blushed and hurriedly gave way:

Inappropriate, inappropriate.

Chen Weiping had been listening and was very satisfied with his son's distribution plan. His son had grown up and was more thoughtful. He did not try to please others or make them feel that he deserved it. When he heard the two parents pushing each other, Chen Weiping spoke up:

It's settled. Xiaofeng's distribution is more reasonable. Don't push it away. Xiaofeng is an adult now, and his say is final in this family. We are all neighbors, so why do we have to calculate so much about whether there is a little more or a little less?

After hearing this, Liu Minggui and Tian Fuli nodded in agreement. Their family got a great deal. Caiyun's mother saw that Caiyun and his father had not returned home after dark, so she locked the door and took a lantern to Chen Feng's house to see what was going on. She was also worried about her daughter. When she heard that her family also got a share of pork, she was overjoyed. She whispered to her daughter and found out that it was Xiaofeng who was generous when he got the share. Otherwise, Heiwa's family could only get a pig's head. It was a privilege for her family to get four pig trotters.

After the distribution plan was determined, everyone was in high spirits. The water was boiled, and Chen Feng began to shave the hair and gut the animals. Liu Minggui helped to scoop water for washing. Heiwa went to boil water. Heiwa's mother and Caiyun's mother were washing the goods. Heiwa's father went to fetch water under the moonlight. Caiyun wanted to light a lantern for her, but was stopped by Heiwa's father. The moon was bright and the small courtyard was bustling with activity.

After Chen Feng divided the pork into three portions, he was not stingy and took out more than half of his own ribs, which together with the meat weighed probably twenty pounds. He chopped it roughly and put it in a basin to wash it. After the people who washed the other goods finished using the pot of hot water, he cooked the ribs for everyone to eat together.

Tian Fuli came back with water and poured it into the water tank. Chen Feng scraped the hot water in the pot into two buckets and carried them out to the yard for everyone to use. He carried the ribs into the house and asked Heiwa to continue to boil water. He riveted the ribs, filtered out the foam, and added various ingredients. He covered the pot and told Heiwa to turn the fire up high. He took a bench and sat in the yard to watch everyone work.
