Pig Killer

Chapter 115

Now there are also strainers made of wicker, which are very smooth and practical.

After making the fish head soup, Shen Hui'e went to the backyard. At this time, the four rafters had been planted in the ground.

Liu Ding was directing them to compact the ground, "Work harder, you haven't eaten yet!"

"Brother Liu, the meal we just ate will be gone after a while of work." Ah Si muttered in a low voice.

"I made fish balls. If you want to eat them, you can eat them now." Shen Hui'e quickly interrupted.

"Did you hear that? Second sister-in-law has made delicious food for us. Help us." Liu Ding said, patting his butt with the wooden board in his hand.

"Hey!" Ah Si responded loudly with a smile.

Liu Ding placed the wooden board directly into the groove on the rafter.

"Sister-in-law, is this okay?" Liu Ding clapped his hands and turned to look at her and said, "It will be installed soon. Just put the wooden board in the slot." He smiled and said, "The space is not small. Two people can stand there."

"It's okay, it's okay. It's for one person only." Shen Hui'e said while looking at the space inside.

"It's only one person tall. I don't dare to make it too high." Liu Ding stretched out his hand and gestured.

"Sure!" Shen Hui'e nodded in understanding, "No one will stand up straight, they all keep their heads down."

Liu Ding stood inside and said, "There are thick wooden boards on top, it's very tight." He pointed outside and said, "The bathtub is also surrounded by wooden boards to prevent it from being blown away by strong winds."

"Yeah! That's very thoughtful." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at the wooden boards around her.

"But this wood is easily rotten due to being exposed to wind, sun and rain. Be careful after a long time so that it doesn't hit anyone." Liu Ding said seriously.

"I know!" Shen Hui'e nodded and asked curiously, "This water outlet."

"Here!" Liu Ding came out. "Go in and take a look. Are you satisfied?" He watched her go in. "It was pulled out. I tried it and it doesn't leak."

"Is it comfortable?" Shen Hui'e asked worriedly, reaching out to try it out, "It's quite smooth."

"There's a slot inside, and it fits perfectly." Liu Ding looked at her gently and said, "Even when a bucket is full, it can flow smoothly."

"The front door is installed halfway." Liu Ding pointed to the front and said, "Then hang a straw curtain, so it won't be a problem even if it's blown up by the wind." He smiled and said, "I once wanted to install the door from top to bottom, but it's dark now, so this is the only way."

"You've been very thoughtful." Shen Hui'e looked at him gratefully and said.

"You have a ladder at home, right? I didn't have time to make one." Liu Ding looked at her with his dark eyes and said, "If you don't have one, it's not too late to make one later."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Shen Hui'e nodded hurriedly.

"I'll get some water now. You can take a look and see if there's anything inappropriate and we can change it." Liu Ding looked straight into her eyes and said carefully.

"It's just what I want." Shen Hui'e looked at him gratefully and said, although taking a shower still requires manual labor, it is already very good to be able to take a shower.

A group of women were bathing in the river. She was not quite used to it because it was easy to expose herself and the water was not clean either.

Shen Hui'e watched with her clear eyes as they installed the bathroom, poured the water into the bathtub using the ladder, and filled it up with the lid.

Liu Ding also demonstrated the 'faucet', saying, "This is the right amount of water to pour out, right?"

"It's so convenient to flush like this!" The big tiger looked at the rushing water with a smile on his face.

"Come here and wash your feet." Liu Ding called him.

The big bug put his feet in the water and said, "This water is really cold."

"The water just drawn from the well is of course cold. After a day of sun exposure, the water will become warm." Shen Hui'e pointed at the sun in the sky and said, "See if you can reach and turn off the water."

The big tiger stretched out his arm, touched it with his foot, and turned off the water.

"Okay, as long as you can reach it." Shen Hui'e said with a smile on her face.

"I've calculated the height. It's just right to stand here. There's no need to adjust it even after my second brother comes back." Liu Ding said to them with a smile.

"Now that Dad is back, our house has changed a lot. I wonder if he will be scared." Li Nu looked at them with her big, bright eyes and said.

"Haha..." Liu Ding laughed when he heard that, "No, your father has seen a lot of things." He smiled and said, "But he has definitely never seen these things. He will be shocked at most."

"You guys chat while I make fish balls for you." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her deep, clear eyes and said, "Remember to wash your hands when you go to the front yard."

Shen Hui'e went to the front yard, picked some vegetables from the vegetable garden, and pulled out two green onions.

After washing and chopping, everything was ready. When Liu Ding and others came, I put the fish balls into the fish head soup. When serving, I put all the vegetables into the big iron pot.

Fish balls are rolling in the milky white fish head soup, and the green vegetables are dotted in it, which makes people's appetite grow.

Shen Hui'e placed all the fish balls on the long table. "Don't be polite. There's more in the pot after you finish eating! Make sure you eat your fill."

"We are not polite to the second sister-in-law." Liu Ding picked up the chopsticks and looked at his brother and said, "Eat!"

"Hululu..."

"Hurrah..."

They are really not particular about food, but that also proves that what they cook is delicious.

For a cook, eating delicious food and finishing it all is the best recognition of himself.

The five guys were really big eaters. After eating a big pot of fish balls and fish soup, only the bottom of the pot was left.

"Brother Liu, how much is that bathroom?" Shen Hui'e asked with her clear eyes as he put down his bowl and chopsticks.

Liu Ding reached out his hand to wipe his mouth casually and said with some embarrassment, "This is a bit expensive."

"How much do you think it will cost? Second sister-in-law can afford it now." Shen Hui'e looked at them with bright eyes and said, "The rafters and the bathtub are made of solid wood, which is not cheap."

Liu Ding pursed his lips and offered a price, "If you don't need it now, you can pay part of it first."

"No problem." Shen Hui'e responded readily, "Wait, I'll get you the money."

Shen Hui'e took the money and handed it to him. Liu Ding counted it and found that it was obviously too much.

"Don't count it now. I asked you to squeeze in time to finish it. I'm sorry for delaying your work." Shen Hui'e said with a smile, "make it an integer." Looking at him who was still counting the money, she said, "If you keep arguing with my second sister-in-law like this, she won't ask you to do any good things in the future."

"Second sister-in-law, you don't know how much I have earned these days." Liu Ding looked at her with his dark eyes and said with great apology.

"That's hard-earned money, you deserve it." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her bright dark eyes.

"Then, sister-in-law, if there is anything you need to do, just tell me." Liu Ding asked straightforwardly, no longer being pretentious.

"I really have something to do. Let's make a few boxes to store our things." Shen Hui'e pointed to the backyard and said, "It should be the size of a bathtub, and it should be square. Curved ones are too troublesome."

"How many do you want?" Liu Ding said readily.

"Four, please! In pairs." Shen Hui'e gestured with her hand.

"Okay!" Liu Ding nodded with a smile.

"Kill the pig lady, kill the pig lady." Neighbors shouted in front of the meat stall.

"We saw a big thing standing in your backyard. What is it for?"

The wall is too low, so anything that happens in the yard will soon become known to everyone.

"Can we go in and have a look?"

"Come in! I asked Brother Liu Ding to do it. Let him explain to you what that big thing is used for."

"Please come in!" Liu Ding said with a smile upon hearing this, his heart beaming with joy. Although many people here cannot afford it, if they spread the word, business will come to them.

Liu Ding led them to the backyard and finally saw clearly what this big guy was used for.

Chattering about the advantages of this bathroom.

"The benefits to us are obvious. We don't have to worry about going into the river."

"This is great. I'm sweaty after coming back from the river. It's so convenient to take a shower at home. I can take a shower anytime and anywhere."

"Especially when cooking in the summer, oh my god, the kitchen is so stuffy, they want to cook me. After a meal, I sweat like rain, as if I was fished out of the water."

“This is great for us.”

When it comes to price, everyone looks embarrassed.

"Mother, I saw their faces change when they heard the price." Li Nu tiptoed over and said in a low voice.

"That's normal. The bathtub itself is expensive, and with the four rafters, it's not cheap either." Shen Hui'e looked at her with her bright eyes.

In ancient times, wooden furniture were all large pieces, and the wood would be prepared early when preparing dowries for girls.

"Can Uncle Liu get the business?" Li Nu asked worriedly.

"A wealthy family in the county has a daughter." Shen Hui'e looked at her with her dark and bright eyes and said.

"They have servants. They are not afraid of boiling water or carrying water." The cat slave muttered in a low voice.

"Some people will like new things." Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows and looked at her and said, "Not all nobles have hot springs."

"Hot spring?" The raccoon slave looked at her questioningly and asked.

"Quanshui knows, right?" Shen Hui'e saw her nod, and then said, "It's hot all year round." She looked at her with warm eyes.

"Oh! There is such spring water." The raccoon looked at her with watery eyes and said, "Aniang likes cleanliness. It would be great if we had a hot spring."

"Silly girl, even if there is a hot spring, we can't get it. Only the top nobles can enjoy it." Shen Hui'e looked at her with her bottomless dark eyes and said.

"Why?" Li Nu looked at her puzzledly and asked.

"Because it's rare! Scarcity makes things valuable! So we have to offer it to noble people, just like your uncle knew about tofu, the first thing he thought of was to offer it." Shen Hui'e looked at her with her deep and penetrating eyes and said.

The raccoon pouted, looking reluctant.

Shen Hui'e reached out and rubbed her head. She tried her best to give her children a comfortable life, but she really couldn't do anything about their birth and bloodline.

"After two days of sun exposure, the water will be hot and we can take a shower at home." Shen Hui'e bent down slightly and tapped her nose and said gently, "Are you happy?"

"Happy!" said the cat slave with the corner of his mouth curled.
