Chapter 36: A Tuft of Fur

When Village Chief Meng Bai heard Mrs Li’s incessant nagging, he instantly began to frown.
Usually, he could easily turn a deaf ear to Mrs Li’s words, but today wasn’t quite the same. This pile of animals by right belonged entirely to Fang Zhengzhi himself.
He had already, with great difficulty, persuaded Fang Zhengzhi to change his mind, if any further changes occurred, the conclusion wouldn’t be as simple anymore.
When the other villagers heard Mrs Li’s complaints, they also became rather unhappy. Village Chief Meng Bai declaration to distribute the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog to the Fang family was something everybody had already expected and had no complaints about.
After all, when Fang Zhengzhi entered the hunting squad, all the prey he hunted belonged to him. These words were announced by the village chief in front of everybody.
Furthermore, the Southern Mountain Village had barely any yield after being in the mountains for such a long time. If it weren’t for Fang Zhengzhi, the other animals wouldn’t have been caught, not even mentioning the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog.
”Mrs Li, all these hunted prey today actually belongs to Zhengzhi!”
”Indeed, it is already very kind of Zhengzhi to offer to split these animals with everyone.”
A few of the villagers standing beside Mrs Li quietly began to remind her.
”Since Mrs Li doesn’t exactly agree with this distribution method, I think I can make some changes!” Fang Zhengzhi stepped out of the crowd at this moment.
Village Chief Meng Bai was taken aback, but he didn’t attempt to stop him. Because, Fang Zhengzhi was now qualified to speak in the Southern Mountain Village.
The other villagers, seeing that Fang Zhengzhi had spoken, also looked on curiously.
”Ah, at least Zhengzhi can reason properly. Luckily auntie didn’t take care of you for nothing. Quick, tell everybody, what changes should be made!” Mrs Li was overjoyed when she saw Fang Zhengzhi step out. When she heard the villagers’ discussions, she had also thought of giving up. But now it seemed that Zhengzhi was still a kid after all, how could he actually contend against adults?
”I think we should distribute the other animals to the rest, then my family and the Li family will share this Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog together. What do you think auntie Li?” Fang Zhengzhi winked a few times at Mrs Li.
”Sharing the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog among my family and your family?” Mrs Li never imagined that Fang Zhengzhi would actually be so generous. She immediately grinned delightedly, ”That makes sense, I agree with this form of distribution!”
The rest of the villagers also heard what Fang Zhengzhi had said. Their eyes widened. I completely don’t understand this. Wasn’t he highly intelligent just now, how did he suddenly become so dumb?
Qin Xuelian also became quite worried, and wanted to step out to prevent this.
Unfortunately, she was held back by Fang Houde.
”Don’t worry!” Even though Fang Houde was simple and down-to-earth, he knew that his son was indeed not stupid. Since Fang Zhengzhi had said these, he definitely had his reasons.
Even if they really had to share half of the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog with Mrs Li, as long as it was reasonable, Fang Zhengzhi would also approve of it.
”That means, Auntie Li has agreed to it?” Fang Zhengzhi continued to ask.
”I agree, of course I agree!” Mrs Li nodded, her head bobbing like a chicken pecking on its feed.
”Sure! Then let’s invite village chief and everyone else to bear witness to this moment. Today, the prey over here won’t be distributed to Auntie Li, then, I’ll share a portion of the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog with Auntie Li!” Fang Zhengzhi nodded and looked towards Village Chief Meng Bai.
”Ok!” Village Chief Meng Bai nodded. Since Fang Zhengzhi himself volunteered to distribute the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog, he didn’t bother to unnecessarily involve himself any further.
The rest of the villagers also began to nod their heads one by one, looking at Fang Zhengzhi with an expression of someone looking at a fool.
Mrs Li naturally didn’t have any further comments and instantly accepted.
Then…
