Pig Killer

Chapter 201

"When I heard the news that my second sister-in-law was arrested by the police, I was almost scared to death." Huang Shuchang said as he looked at them with lingering fear.

"That kid, Da Chong, was scared at first, but later he shouted and killed the county magistrate and his men, and he wasn't afraid at all." Huang Bochang said with a gentle smile, "But he scared me." Then he said, "I was stunned at the time."

"Why are you so calm?" Huang Jichang said in surprise.

"My sister-in-law taught him well!" Huang Bochang thought about it seriously and said, "The little guy can handle things now."

"Yeah! That's what my second sister-in-law is like. She never panics when things happen and actively tries to find solutions." Huang Jichang nodded when he heard that.

"Our Yuanji and Zhaoye have been learning from my sister-in-law for a while and have become much calmer." Huang Bochang looked at them with a smile in his eyes and said, "That kid dared to argue with me." He smiled gently, "This kid now speaks in a set way, and the key is that he can convince me."

"Convince people with reason, right?" Huang Jichang said with a smile when he heard it.

"Yes!" Huang Bochang chuckled and shook his head, "I hope my second brother will come back soon!"

"Can you rescue my second sister-in-law when you come back?" Huang Shuchang said worriedly.

"This..." Huang Bochang was speechless and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Second brother is alone?" Huang Jichang looked at him without blinking and said, "It won't work! We can't ask second brother to exchange for second sister-in-law!"

"I think it's all the same, let's just do it! If we do it, all problems will be solved." Huang Shuchang looked at him with green eyes and said, "Brother!"

"Let's wait a little longer until the autumn harvest is over and take a look at the grain collection situation." Huang Bochang said after thinking it over seriously.

"What if we continue to endure it?" Huang Jichang said worriedly.

"Second sister-in-law will have to stay in jail." Huang Shuchang raised his eyebrows and looked at him and said.

"It's very likely that our production has increased, so we can save some anyway. At least we have a stutter and won't make trouble." Huang Jichang looked directly at his eldest brother and said, "We can still make a living by tightening our belts."

"Uh..." Huang Bochang could only say, "We'll see after the autumn harvest."

"Brother, you can't hide from it. You will have to face it sooner or later." Huang Jichang looked at him seriously with his dark eyes.

"Yeah!" Huang Shuchang nodded in agreement.

"I know, but this hasn't happened, so let's not think too much about it." Huang Bochang pursed his lips and looked at him and said.

"Brother, this is not just wishful thinking. We need to have ideas in our minds. It can't be a mess." Huang Shuchang said when he heard it.

"Don't call me big brother! Can you think of a solution?" Huang Bochang said somewhat uncomfortably.

"What can we do? You are the eldest brother after all!" Huang Jichang said leisurely.

"Our way is to just do it!" Huang Shuchang said readily.

"Hey! This is the best one." Huang Jichang looked at him with sparkling eyes and said, "If you are hesitant, you will end up making Second Sister-in-law suffer more."

"It's easy to do! We can rush in right now with a knife in hand." Huang Bochang looked at them unhappily and said, "The key is what to do after we do it! What should we do next?"

"Well..." Huang Jichang was speechless, "What should I do from now on?"

"Look! We don't know anything about it, and we've never done it before." Huang Bochang pointed at them and said, "Go ask your second sister-in-law later."

"Second sister-in-law, do you know what to do? This has never happened to us before! It's the first time for everyone." Huang Jichang looked at him with a puzzled look on his face.

"Your second sister-in-law has read a lot of bamboo slips, and they contain everything." Huang Bochang said, looking at them with his dark eyes.

"Okay, I'll ask my second sister-in-law later." Huang Shuchang let out a sigh of relief.

"Go home quickly and divide the spoils. Take the weapons to Tiefeng to get them repaired." Huang Bochang said, quickening his pace.

"Brother, brother, we won't keep those spoils! Divide them all." Huang Jichang hurriedly caught up and asked.

"Of course, why do you keep it? It's not much. We are from the same village, it would be bad to keep it!" Huang Bochang tilted his head and looked at them and said, "Everyone has worked hard these days."

What else can we say now? Divide the spoils.

"Aren't you afraid?" Shen Changsheng said as he looked at his eldest nephew walking.

"Afraid!" The big tiger brother and sister nodded in unison.

"It's no use being scared!" Li Nu said as he looked at them with innocent eyes.

"Don't panic when encountering problems, find ways to solve them." The big tiger looked at them with his shining eyes and said.

"That's right!" Shen Changsheng looked at them tenderly and asked with concern, "Can you guys stay at home?"

"It's possible!" The tiger looked up at him and said loudly, "After delivering the meal to A Niang, we still have to go to the fields to harvest the autumn harvest."

"Send food?" Shen Penglai frowned slightly when he heard this and said, "From what you said, you want to cook for yourself!"

"Yeah!" The big tiger nodded.

"Don't you know how to cook?" Shen Penglai asked worriedly.

"Yes! I learned it from my mother." The big insect looked at them and said with a smile, "It may not look as good as my mother's, but it will be edible when it is cooked."

"No, no, leave the meal delivery to your aunt and the others." Shen Penglai shook his head vigorously.

"We can do it." The big insect looked at them firmly and said, "Every household is short of food now, we can't!"

"I don't need food from you guys." Shen Changsheng said with amusement, looking at him like a little adult.

"That's not necessary. Uncle still has to harvest the crops and help us with the harvest. Just leave this small matter to us." The big tiger looked at them with his black eyes and said sweetly.

"You can go to jail." Shen Changsheng said worriedly.

"It's settled." The big tiger looked at them with his big round eyes and said, "Uncle told us to give it a try. If it doesn't work, you guys can step in."

"Okay!" Faced with his nephew looking at him eagerly, Shen Changsheng had no choice but to agree.

At most, I would follow them to the prison to take a look.

Without their father around, they have grown up so fast in the past two years without realizing it.

It seemed that my second sister, who was also a spoiled girl, had supported a family and remained calm in times of crisis.

The Shen Changsheng brothers sent their eldest nephew, niece, and Xiao Douzi home before leaving.

"Brother, can they do it? Let's just ignore it." Shen Penglai looked back at the closed door and said.

"We'll follow them secretly." Shen Changsheng said gently, "How can we leave them alone?"

"But I'm thinking again, shouldn't we also make preparations early for our children?" Shen Changsheng said with his distant eyes looking at the cobblestone ground beneath his feet.

"What are you preparing for?" Shen Penglai looked at him in confusion.

"Like Da Chong and his friends! They don't panic when things get bad. Even if their parents get into trouble, they can take care of themselves." Shen Changsheng raised his eyebrows and looked at them and said, "It's hard to say what will happen in this world. What if something happens to us? They won't even be able to eat a hot meal."

"Cooking?" Shen Penglai's eyes almost popped out of the window.

"Why are you so surprised? No matter what time it is, we have to take care of our mouths first! No matter how it tastes, we have to eat it cooked!" Shen Changsheng looked at him with his dark eyes and said, "They can live well without us around."

"Alas... this change really caught us off guard. How could it become like this?" Shen Penglai said with emotion upon hearing this.

"If it was like last year, Fang would just farm hard and inherit his father's business. I don't know what has become of him now." Shen Changsheng clenched his fists and looked at him and said, "Luckily, I started learning boxing and kicking techniques in the second half of last year. Even with my mediocre skills now, I can still scare people. At least my archery skills don't miss the target anymore, and I won't be bullied. Otherwise, I would be a lamb to be slaughtered."

"Okay!" What else could Shen Penglai say? "In this world, the children must grow up and be able to do things." He took a deep breath and said, "I will go back and teach them well. At least they have to protect themselves."

"Yeah!" Shen Changsheng nodded slightly.

"When will my second sister come out?" Shen Penglai asked with concern.

"Let's see how the higher-ups collect grain after the autumn harvest." Shen Changsheng tilted his head slightly and looked at him and said.

"What if there is no additional levy, or the grain collection is within our affordability?" Shen Penglai asked, staring at him with his dark eyes.

Shen Changsheng looked at him in astonishment and said, "You think too highly of them. They are only good at scraping the ground." He snorted coldly, "They don't care whether we live or die! They want to suck our marrow out of our bones."

"I mean, what if! The higher-ups find their conscience?" Shen Penglai looked at him with his clear black eyes and asked, "Then the second sister will not be able to come out." Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said, "If the second brother-in-law comes back, she can come out too. I don't know when he will be back."

"It's hard to say?" Shen Changsheng said with dark eyes.

"Why is it so difficult to say? Why doesn't my second brother-in-law come back?" Shen Penglai looked at him with bright eyes and said.

"Maybe he'll become a bandit, like those bandits." Shen Changsheng frowned slightly and looked at him and said, "Or maybe he won't come back in order not to implicate us."

"What do you mean by not implicate us? This has already implicated my second sister." Shen Penglai said angrily, "He is eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks, while my second sister is suffering in prison!"

"Your second brother-in-law is not that kind of person. He is a very loyal person." Shen Changsheng looked at him with deep black eyes and said, "He will not abandon us."

"He won't abandon his parents, but it's hard to say about his wife and children." Shen Penglai said with a roll of his eyes.

"What do you want to say? Your life is in danger, and you still have the mood to look for a woman." Shen Changsheng looked at him unhappily and said, "Stop thinking nonsense."

"It's not wishful thinking. We are all men. We can't have simple minds!" Shen Peng said to him with a wink.

"Why don't you have it?" Shen Changsheng looked at him with a smile.

"I was just thinking about it, but now the grain tax is increased every day, and I have no intention of doing it." Shen Penglai looked at him with a sad face and said, "I just think about having enough food every day."
