Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 5 - Selling Meat

" you can look somewhere else " said Yu Dong as she took out the butchering knife and saw that Fang Chi had gone a pale blue shade " its fine to feel queasy but don't get sick , look somewhere else until I finish "

Fang Chi was relieved when Yu Dong asked him to look away , he was really scared at the sight of that sharp knife , he really didn't want to see any blood or anything gruesome , he immediately looked away while Yu Dong butchered the boar , she was immaculately clean and soon she finished chopping up the boar , she was also in a hurry because her little mer was in labour and could give birth anytime before that happened , she wanted to get him some chicken soup .

She quickly finished piling the chopped meat , blood and even the offals in the buckets and tied the other boar to her back and stood up , though it was heavy with her spiritual energy as a cheat trick Yu Dong didn't feel it was too heavy " you can look now "

She had cleaned the blood on the ground by sweeping away the soil and debris and buried the waste materials in the ground . Once she had cleaned enough , she thought that It was alright for Fang Chi to look .

Fang Chi turned his head and looked at Yu Dong who was carrying two heavy buckets of meat and bones while she left the lightest one that had blood and offals in the other - though Fang Chi didn't know what Yu Dong was going to do with the offals and blood , he still picked it up - feeling a bit complex .

Every one in the village said that Yu Dong was unreasonable and spoiled , she never did anything to help anyone , instead she kept troubling others no matter what who it was - but seeing her now , it didn't feel like she was someone who troubled people . If she did , why would she leave the lightest buckets for him to pick . 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Yu Dong deliberately didn't put the buckets and boars in her spiritual world she wanted the villagers to see that she was a great hunter and they could buy meat from her - just as she expected the second the villagers saw that she was carrying a heavy , fat and chubby boar an uproar issued at once .

Those who didn't rush to bring money were shocked and upset but those who snuck to bring it were happy , they immediately rushed towards Yu Dong house . Seeing the villagers rushing in her house direction - Yu Dong shouted " whoever brings me an old hen , I will give them an ounce of extra pork belly !"

When the villagers heard that there will be extra meat they were excited but then they remembered that they didn't have an old hen among them a woman with swallow face and upturned nose shrieked in delight and rushed to bring the old hen from her home , a single hen for free pork belly ? She would happily exchange !

Ye Liu who was tending to Chen Mi heard the hustle and bustle and frowned why were the villagers making so much noise ? Even Shen Li who hardly ever got angry said "Liu go and see what happened , shoo the women away if they are here for money , tell them we haven nothing "

Shen Li thought that the women were here to ask for repayment , Ye Liu thought so as well but when he walked outside and saw a single file with women standing in it - he was shocked .

" Why are you standing here ?" What was with this queue just from how many people Yu Dong borrowed ?

" Ye Liu you don't know ? Yu Dong hunted two boars and is going to sell them soon - ah here she is ". Exclaimed the woman , Ye Liu followed her line of sight and was stunned because coming in his direction was Yu Dong with a boar in hand and two buckets that were filled with meat and bones in other .

Ye Liu was shocked to see this scene but some where in his shock he bristled at the young mer who was chatting with his wife and happily smiling - you brat what are you doing ?

Yu Dong saw the huge queue then she saw Ye Liu , she placed the buckets and the boar on the ground and took out some pork belly , some bones and lean meat from her bucket and handed it all to Ye Liu " keep it , And give some to Fang Chi he helped me carry so much stuff "

" No don't " blushing Fang Chi tried to refuse but Yu Dong shook her head and interrupted him " you better take it or I will have to shy away from asking help from you again " ( Ye Liu : why do you need his help ? Am I dead or what?)

When Yu Dong said it like this Fang Chi had no option but to follow Ye Liu in who chopped a piece of pork belly for him like he was chopping his enemy .

Back to Yu Dong who took out another bucket and butchered the other boar on the plank on which mother Yu butchered pigs .The villagers have never seen such a clean butchering and were shocked at how cleanly Yu Dong butchered the boar " its the old rule , first come first served - if the meat finishes before your turn there will be no fighting - You didn't give me any advance and I didn't promise anything except the extra meat for an old hen , got it ?"

The villagers nodded while the others who came late sighed , as they glanced at the long queue - today it might be impossible for them to get some meat .

Yu Dong had two boars and the prices she set was lower than the pork sold at town but still it was a reasonable price - the villagers all brought a lot , those who couldn't buy the expensive lean meat and pork belly brought the ones with bones while some who were well off brought the pork belly and lean meat .

Yu Dong had specifically kept a thick chunk of pork belly for the woman who brought the old hen and gave her the bones and pork belly as per her choice - the woman was very happy with the thick pork belly even though it was just an ounce it was still fat !

By the time Yu Dong finished selling the meat - she made enough money that was to say some one or two taels but it was only because ahe had the meat of two boars it was the freshest when sold .

" do you - do you have any meat left ? I - I just want to buy an ounce of anything " a soft and scared voice asked her and Yu Dong who was cleaning the pork tripe looked up , it was a little mer , even smaller than Chen Mi , he looked weak and thin and badly malnourished " an ounce ? Yes I have some bones left , do you want it ?"

" I - I do " said the little mer his eyes trained on the cleaned pork tripe

" do you want to buy this as well ?" Asked Yu Dong once she was done weighing an ounce of bones and saw the little mer looking at the tripe .

" No , I have no money -"

" You can keep it " looking at the thin boy , Yu Dong felt a bit sympathetic , she had seen a lot of malnourished kids in the apocalypse and she always tried to help them when she could " its going to waste any way - No one's buying it see ?"

She pointed at the tripe that was filled to brim of the buckets , the little mer hesitated " is - is it tasty ?"

" if you know how to cook " said Yu Dong " if you cook it properly it will taste like chicken, and its filling as well " and it was a great source of protein

" Alright , I will take some " said the little mer as he took the tripe Yu Dong handed him and hid it inside his shirt , then a little hesitating he looked at Yu Dong who went back to cleaning tripe " Thank you " he whispered and ran away , this was the first time anyone gave him something purely out of kindness , even though it was waste - it was the thought that counted .

Yu Dong who was cleaning the tripe had no idea that just a bowl of tripe got her and her kindness , actually got her - her first most fervent pursuer in the future .f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮
