Everyone burst into laughter, really blessed with divine power, one slap and even those with martial arts skills need to be careful. Old Man Wang is probably annoyed that his son, after years of hard practice, can’t compare to a young kid. Zhang Qingshan curiously looked at Zhang Guoqing’s arms and hands, "Now, how much can you lift at most? If ten strong laborers fought against you, could you win?" Zhang Qingfeng slapped his thigh and stomped his feet, laughing, "Brother, he fought with six thugs, got hit on the back of the head and you forgot? He’s just got brute strength." Seeing everyone laugh, Zhang Guoqing helplessly raised his eyebrows, "This was a mistake of my life, can you not mention it? Who knew those scoundrels would sneak attack. I’ve never met anyone daring enough to ambush me, just got caught off guard." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲·𝗻𝗲𝘁 Zhang Qingfeng glanced disdainfully, "Back then, we were all kids, making you the king of the kids here. Now there are people waiting to put a sack over your head and hit you. They all hate you for taking the golden baby. You’re not being fair; many people were waiting for the golden baby to grow up. But just as she was growing up, you hurriedly took her home. Who else would they ambush?" Zhang Guoqiang clapped his hands and agreed, "Brother Qinghe, you didn’t know, this guy was confused at the time, wondering who dared to hit him over the head. I said, just in case someone put a sack over his head, then he realized. And he has the nerve to say Jiao Jiao was his little wife from the start, such thick skin. Just happened Uncle Zhou was there to tear his cover, thinking about someone’s daughter at such a young age." Zhang Guofu retorted, "Don’t say that, Xiao Wu and Jiao Jiao have been holding hands since they were kids, and didn’t some people call them little husband and wife, so affectionate. A handful of wild fruits, Xiao Wu would wipe it on his clothes and stuff it into Jiao Jiao’s mouth. If any kid tried to snatch it, he’d punch them. He always wanted Jiao Jiao to play the bride when playing house. Do you guys remember? Every time they ran out, either up the mountain to catch wild pheasants and rabbits or to find Jiao Jiao, holding her little hand. They’d whisper at the village bridge, Xiao Wu would run out with goodies for Jiao Jiao as if she was his wife." Zhang Qingshan laughed joyfully and kept nodding, "I still remember, every time another kid wanted Jiao Jiao to be the bride, he’d step up and beat them. So domineering, at that time Grandpa praised Xiao Wu for being impressive. Xiao Wu stopped wearing split pants at three, and at four or five, begged his second aunt to sew up Jiao Jiao’s pants at the village entrance, all the old ladies laughed. Jiao Jiao was still being carried by Aunt Zhou, just learning to walk." Zhang Qingyan followed, "That’s not surprising, I remember Xiao Wu caught a wild chicken at five, Grandpa helped kill it, he held the chicken leg to roast on a fire. It was all burnt black, wrapped in leaves, and sneaked to the bridge, running to give it to Jiao Jiao. Thinking back now, it’s quite funny. At five, you already knew to give things to a four-year-old girl. Xiao Wu, did you know back then she was your wife?" Zhang Guoqing faced everyone’s teasing with great helplessness. The topic had drifted too far, even the four old folks above were laughing and watching with their mouths agape. He forcibly changed the subject, "Brothers, how about we head to the creek beforehand the day after tomorrow? There are wild deer and goats there. With any luck, we might catch a few, sell them, or keep them for the New Year as pot fillers." Zhang Qingfeng nodded excitedly, "We should go there first, these three villages have plenty of people. If they scatter, those wild animals might be scared into the deep mountains. We’ve got nothing to do these days. Count me in, Xiao Wu." "I’ll go too, let’s go early the day after tomorrow and come back early." "I’ll go with you, we really need meat. Bring our gear the day after tomorrow." "No need to say, if you all go, I have to follow. Maybe I’ll find some good medicinal herbs along the way." As the eldest, Zhang Qingshan saw everyone wanted to go, waited for them to finish speaking, then suggested, "Let’s meet at Uncle’s at 6 the day after tomorrow, get back near dark to avoid attention. Don’t spread it around. Prepare more dry food, bring a small pot, Xiao Wu, you prepare the pot. It’ll be the seven of us brothers, the ones left at home can go the day after. Having too many from the three houses take leave isn’t a good look, give people a heads up too, it’s not good to go with too many. That’s settled, any additions?" Zhang Guofu thought about it, then shook his head, "I think elder brother arranged it well, nothing to add, just have my mother prepare more dry food." Zhang Qingfeng and Zhang Qingyan both shook their heads indicating they had nothing to add.
