Chapter 42: Xu Family’s Shock

Watching his sister fighting with the wild boar, Xu Minglei was terrified, but fortunately, his sister was quick enough to avoid the boar’s tusks.

Xu Mumu kept looking for a suitable spot to attack, realizing the sickle was not effective against the wild boar.

When the boar’s tusks were about to attack her again, this time Xu Mumu didn’t dodge. She directly grabbed the boar’s tusks with her left hand, and with her right hand fashioned into a fist, Xu Mumu used almost eighty percent of her strength to punch the boar’s head.

The boar’s head was dented by Xu Mumu’s punch, and after a few struggles, it fell down directly.

"Sis, are you okay?" Seeing the boar was motionless, Xu Minglei quickly jumped down from the tree.

"I’m fine, just a little tired." Xu Mumu said with a smile. This boar must weigh three to four hundred pounds, and selling it would fetch quite a bit of money, not to mention the meat is enough to fill us up.

The other kids were petrified, only now coming back to their senses.

"Sis, you’re amazing, so strong." Tiedan looked at Xu Mumu with admiration.

"Big sister is the best." Xu Tao also admired Xu Mumu greatly, feeling that his big sister was capable of anything and very strong.

"Big sister, you scared me to death, the wild boar was terrifying." Xu Minglei clung onto Xu Mumu’s hand, unwilling to let go, knowing that if something happened to his sister, he would never forgive himself.

"Don’t be afraid, remember, I am very strong." Xu Mumu gently comforted the little fellow, thinking today must have frightened him.

"But it’s still very dangerous." Xu Minglei stubbornly said.

"I know, but you can’t encounter boars every day." Xu Mumu smiled helplessly.

"Big sister, aren’t we going to have lots of meat to eat?" Xu Jiaojiao, who was quite scared before, was no longer frightened now that the boar had been killed by Xu Mumu.

"Yes, Little Tao, go sneak back and bring my dad and your dad to help carry the boar back." Xu Mumu told Xu Tao.

"Okay, I’m going right now." The little fellow nodded seriously, then dashed downhill.

Xu Mumu and the others were not far from the deep mountains; running downhill would take more than half an hour.

Xu Mumu rested there for a while after comforting Xu Minglei, then began examining the wild boar. Its tusks really weren’t small; she hadn’t tasted wild boar meat before but imagined it tasted similar to domestic pork.

"Sis, I want to eat pork too." Tiedan was almost drooling, as it had been over half a month since they last had pork at home.

"Once we clean up the boar, I’ll cut a big piece of meat for you." Xu Mumu said with a smile. During this time, Tiedan had been quite obedient, and Xu Mumu had grown fond of the little fellow.

"Big sister, look, mushrooms." Xu Jiaojiao pulled Xu Mumu over to look underneath a nearly decayed tree trunk, where pure white mushrooms were growing, looking very delightful.

"Bring the basket over, we’ll have mushrooms and meat slices tonight." Xu Mumu said with a smile, and reached out to pick the largest oyster mushrooms.

Meanwhile, Xu Tao, who had run back, found no one at home and went straight to the fields to find them.

It was still work time in the fields, where they were probably digging up crops and preparing to plant wheat and rapeseed.

"Grandpa, Uncle, Dad, come quickly, I need to talk to you." Xu Tao called out anxiously from the ridge.

"Little Tao, what’s the matter, has anything happened at home?" Old Xu planted rapeseed seedlings into the dug pits and covered the roots with soil.

"Something’s happened, hurry up, big sister asked for you." Xu Tao was anxious; the big wild boar meant lots of meat.

"What happened to Mumu?" Xu Minghui was the first to approach.

"Hurry up, we’ll talk in a quieter place." There were so many people here; although nowadays capturing prey doesn’t mean sharing with the whole village, it wouldn’t be good if too many people knew.

"What’s all this secrecy about?" Xu Hai frowned.

"Old Xu, what’s up, quitting work already?" An old man of similar age to Old Xu looked over curiously from a distance and asked.

"Something’s come up at home, you all keep working." Old Xu waved his hand; anything involving Xu Mumu wasn’t insignificant.

Meanwhile, on the second field, Xu Xue was working. Though she couldn’t earn full work points, earning a bit more was still good.

Seeing Xu Tao come to call people, urged by Xu Mumu, she was curious, as so many uncontrollable events in this life made her not as happy about her rebirth.

Who knows what Xu Mumu was up to again, she wondered.

"What did you say??" Old Xu suspected his ears were playing tricks on him, and the same suspicion curled through Xu Hai and his sons, as well as Xu Po.

Xu Mumu punched a wild boar to death?? Who’s being fooled with stories of that weak little Xu Mumu?

"Grandpa, it’s true, the boar is huge, let’s hurry up and bring it back." Xu Tao urged anxiously; he wouldn’t believe it if he hadn’t seen it himself.

"Oldest, Fourth, take the tools and check it out, make sure Mumu is safe." Old Xu instructed his two sons.

"Grandpa, I’m going too." Xu Minghui stepped forward.

"Okay, I’ll take care of the leave for you." Old Xu nodded; Xu Minghui, young and strong, could help if they encountered any wild animals.

"Little Tao, is Mumu alright?" While walking uphill with a stick, Xu Hai inquired, still worried.

"Big sister is fine, she’s probably resting there now." Xu Tao replied with a grin, knowing they were going to have plenty of meat.

"How did you guys encounter a wild boar?" Xu Minghui asked, somewhat believing Xu Tao, knowing a bit about his sister’s skills.

Vividly, Xu Tao recounted the earlier events, which would make Mumu sigh; who knew the kid had a talent for storytelling?

Xu Tao’s animated retelling left Xu Hai and the others in a daze.

When they reached Xu Mumu’s location, seeing his daughter unharmed, Xu Hai felt relieved. Their attention was immediately drawn to the large wild boar on the ground; indeed, the boar was both large and striking.

"There really is a boar." Xu Po’s eyes widened, and looking at the dent on the boar’s head, his pupils contracted—how much strength was needed to achieve that?

Xu Hai’s gaze was similarly captivated by that dent; swallowing hard, he glanced at his composed daughter, who was surrounded by little kids gazing at her with admiration.
