Pig Killer

Chapter 210

"Because everyone has his own little plans in mind?" The big tiger looked at her with his round eyes and said.

"Yes! We will be the ones to deal with your father when the time comes..." Shen Hui'e's eyes like black jade turned slightly and said, "Just like the county magistrate threw me into the prison as bait to lure your father."

"But the county magistrate failed! Let's fight our way out." The tiger looked at her with big round eyes.

"Hey! There are only a few people in the entire county government!" Shen Hui'e said unhappily, "Don't take it for granted and apply it mechanically." Pointing at him with her index finger, she said, "By then, there will definitely be heavy guards. Under their noses, two fists can't beat four hands, understand?" She added bluntly, "There are too many people, you can't kill them all, and you will just die of exhaustion in the end."

"Can't we outsmart them?" The raccoon tapped his head with his index finger and said, "My mother once said that fighting a war doesn't rely on brute force, it relies on this."

"So what should we do? It's not just using your brain." Shen Hui'e looked at them with amusement and said, "Sometimes brute force is so strong that even if you have ten heads you still can't come up with a solution."

Da Chong and the others tilted their heads and thought about it foolishly.

"Go to sleep. Maybe there will be a solution in your dreams!" Shen Hui'e stood up and pulled Li Nu and said, "Don't worry about the fire. It will be extinguished once it is out."

"I know." Xiaodouzi nodded hurriedly when he heard that.

Shen Hui'e pulled Li Nu into the inner room to sleep. She lay on the bed and thought silently, how should she get along with this guy?

Things have their priorities, and the weather is getting colder soon.

&*&

"Hui'e is different from what I thought. She has changed a lot." Huang Zhongchang said as he walked on the cobblestones.

She wasn't as haggard as he thought, but she had a bad temper! She simply didn't take him seriously.

I never dared to speak so loudly before. Where did her gentle self go?

Now she is strong enough to kill pigs.

"You dare to look me in the eye. You're really rude." Huang Zhongchang said with some complaint.

"I was forced to do it." Huang Bochang said with emotion, "After you left, I almost couldn't make ends meet." His dark eyes reflected the moonlight and shone with silvery white light, "Finally, I took over your pig slaughtering stall, and life got better." Then he said, "If this person wasn't a little more assertive, she would have been bullied to death." He smiled and said, "When you were not at home, she supported the family and was used to being the boss. It's not easy for a woman."

"It's not easy for me!" Huang Zhongchang said aggrievedly. She couldn't stand seeing her family members saying good things about her.

"We know!" Huang Bochang tilted his head slightly and watched him walk away, saying, "So we work hard to make money. If something happens again, we hope to get the money to redeem it."

"There have been so many changes at home in the two years I've been away!" Huang Zhongchang said in surprise.

"Yes! Fortunately, we made money, otherwise we would have been starving." Huang Bochang said with deep emotion, "We would have been chewing tree bark and digging grass roots."

"What kind of business are you doing?" Huang Zhongchang asked curiously.

Huang Bochang explained the situation at home in detail as they walked.

Huang Zhongchang was dumbfounded after hearing this, and came to the conclusion that his wife was involved in everything.

Didn't they doubt this? Apparently, they were completely obedient to this woman.

It seems like I am controlled by others now! I can't get hard.

"It's dark at home, I can't see anything. Can you tell me about the changes at home?" Huang Zhongchang said casually, "It won't make a fool of yourself."

"Nothing has changed?" Huang Bochang thought seriously and said, "The bed has become higher, so it will be much more convenient to keep warm in the winter."

"I see." Huang Zhongchang nodded slightly, his messy hair hiding the thoughts in his eyes.

Huang Bochang stamped his feet and said, "The cobblestones on this road were also started by my sister-in-law." He excitedly said, "And my sister-in-law made flowers out of this pork, it's really delicious." He looked at him regretfully and said, "It's a pity that fewer people are raising pigs now, and basically no one raises them anymore."

"Because of the repeated grain collection," Huang Zhongchang said angrily, "but our food has not changed at all, and has even become worse."

"That's right! People are almost eating tree bark and digging grass roots, where is there anything left to feed the pigs!" Huang Bochang said with a grim face, "Most people don't have anything to feed the pigs this year."

"Maybe it will be okay next year!" Huang Zhongchang said hopefully with green eyes.

"It's all right, it's all right! We have grain, and our production is higher than other places, so we can raise pigs. We don't have to pay such heavy taxes." Huang Bochang looked at him with a beaming face, and his voice was full of joy. He smiled and said, "Even if we raise pigs next year, it will take about ten months for us to eat them."

"Why?" Huang Zhongchang asked anxiously.

"You, the butcher, forgot that it takes time for pigs to grow." Huang Bochang looked at him with amusement and said, "It used to take longer, but now castrated pigs take about ten months or a year to grow fat and can be slaughtered."

"It's going to take so long!" Huang Zhongchang said rudely while sucking his saliva, which was particularly loud in the silent night.

"We can't help it. We almost killed all the pigs before the New Year. We don't have any food, so how can we continue to raise pigs? We killed them all early." Huang Bochang sighed, "I thought you could kill the pigs when you came back, so that my sister-in-law could have a rest. Now it seems that's not possible."

"I don't have time!" Huang Zhongchang said regretfully.

"That's right!" Huang Bochang looked at him gently and said, "The changes in the house, the roof is hung with straw mats, so things won't fall off the roof when you sleep. It's more convenient to take a shower." He talked about the changes in the house in detail as he walked, "In short, it's more comfortable and convenient to live here than before."

So unscrupulous? Huang Zhongchang muttered in his heart.

Huang Zhongchang's dark pupils rolled around as he said, "Why are there so many wonderful ideas? Why weren't there any when I was here?"

"It's all because you're gone. I'm forced to do this." Huang Bochang said confidently, "Without you at home, I have to do many things myself. I have to find ways to do it!"

Huang Zhongchang looked at him in surprise when he heard this. Is this possible?

She is obviously not my wife. These things cannot appear out of thin air.

I have been married to her for eight years, why didn't I take it out earlier?

Is this a human or a ghost? My family really can't tell!

I was completely won over by her, without any doubt.

From what we can see so far, she has not harmed my family, so if she dares to do anything bad, I am not afraid of her, and I have plenty of people around me now.

"We're here." Huang Bochang said as he looked at the people moving around in front of him and lit up a handful of firewood.

"Oh!" Huang Zhongchang came back to his senses and said.

Huang Bochang shuddered as the cool wind blew and said, "You can bear with it here for a while, and then go back home."

"Brother, I can't leave my brothers." Huang Zhongchang declined politely, "We've been here all this way, and I'm used to it." The flames danced on his face, flickering, "Sometimes we don't even dare to light a fire for fear that the flames will reveal our whereabouts."

"Alas..." Huang Bochang looked at him distressedly and said, "My second brother has suffered."

"No, no, everyone is the same. I didn't feel it was hard. It was worth it to be able to escape alive." A sunny smile appeared on Huang Zhongchang's face.

"We can cut down trees and build a wooden house first." Huang Bochang made a prompt decision, "We will start after we finish planting winter wheat."

"It would be better to attack Hezhong Prefecture directly!" Huang Zhongchang said without thinking.

"I need to discuss this with my sister-in-law and my uncle." Huang Bochang looked at him with bright eyes.

"Brother-in-law?" Huang Zhongchang thought for a long time before he understood what he meant. "Big Chong's uncle?"

"Your eldest brother-in-law has been going to Hezhong Prefecture for the past two years and is very familiar with the area." Huang Bochang said with a simple smile, "It would be most appropriate to ask him about the situation."

"Does he know anything about military matters?" Huang Zhongchang raised his eyebrows and asked, "How many troops does Hezhong Prefecture have? How are their defenses deployed?"

"This..." Huang Bochang was stunned by the question.

"We'll talk about it later." Huang Zhongchang looked at him with his dark eyes and said, "Isn't farming more important? Let's do it first." He smiled and said, "The weather is not that cold yet."

"Okay then!" Huang Bochang had no choice but to say this after hearing this. He really had no say in this matter.

"Brother, please go back! It's still dark, so take a nap." Huang Zhongchang said embarrassedly, "Brother, please help me until now."

"We are brothers, why bother talking about trouble or not?" Huang Bochang said unhappily, "Don't say such polite words in the future." He smiled and said, "I'm leaving now, you should also get some sleep, what tomorrow..." He smiled and said, "We should talk about it after daybreak."

"I'm leaving, you go over quickly!" Huang Bochang said to him gently.

"I'm going over there." Huang Zhongchang walked over and turned back to watch him leave.

"Brother Huang!" Awu walked over and looked at him and said.

"Is everything arranged?" Huang Zhongchang asked, staring at him.

"It's arranged, but the weather is getting colder and colder, and the clothes we are wearing are simply not enough to keep up." Awu looked at him in embarrassment.

"I've thought of a solution." Huang Zhongchang looked at him warmly and said.

"What can we do? There are so many of us!" A clear voice sounded in Huang Zhongchang's ears.

Huang Zhongchang raised his eyes and looked over, smiled slightly and said, "Jixian, let's talk by the fire."

"Okay!" Zhang Jixian responded with a smile.

The three of them sat by the campfire, and Huang Zhongchang told them the news he had received.

"That's great." Zhang Jixian said with a rare smile on his face.

Huang Zhongchang looked at Zhang Jixian without blinking and said with a smile, "It's rare for a steady Jixian to smile."

"I'm not made of wood." Zhang Jixian looked at him with amusement and said.

"It's not wood, it's just that he doesn't care about worldly things." Huang Zhongchang looked at him sincerely and said, "How do those words go? Like the clear wind and bright moon, the immortals under the moon, the gentleman is like jade." He sneered, "How can it be like us rough bearded men."

Zhang Jixian chuckled and shook his head slightly, "You're just talking nonsense again."
