Pig Killer

Chapter 134

"Hot stir-fry?" Tie Feng tilted his head slightly and looked at his wife and said, "Is that ok?"

"For the sake of the child, I endured it. What else can I do?" Shen Yun'e pouted and said aggrievedly, "We only want this one. I won't have any more children."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I won't give birth to a child." Tie Feng followed her words and tried to comfort her, trying to coax her first.

"Is there enough flour at home?" Shen Hui'e asked the couple with clear eyes.

"Enough, enough, enough! The newly harvested wheat is enough for the two of us in my family." Tie Feng said cheerfully, "The weather is good this year."

"Just eat cold noodles with garlic juice, it's sour and appetizing." Shen Hui'e said to them with her bright eyes.

"Yeah!" Shen Yun'e calmed herself down and said, "I just lost my composure."

"It's okay, I understand. I also have a bad temper because of the hot weather." Shen Hui'e looked at them gently and said, "It's good to express your temper, otherwise it's uncomfortable to hold it in your heart." Her eyes fell on Tie Feng and said, "Brother-in-law, please bear with me."

"I understand. This year is exceptionally hot. It's humid, hot, and stuffy." Tie Feng looked up at the scorching sun through the layers of leaves and said, "This man is sweating even without moving."

"Brother Tie has a harder job. He has to work in the shop in such hot weather." Shen Yun'e said to her husband with heartache.

"Please be considerate of each other." Shen Hui'e looked at them tenderly and said, "It will be fine when the weather cools down."

"Ah! When will the beginning of autumn come?" Shen Yun'e said pitifully while looking at them with a sad face.

"It's almost time, it's almost time, the dog days of summer are coming." Shen Hui'e counted on her fingers and said, "Ah! It's less than a month."

"Ah..." Shen Yun'e looked up at the blue sky and said, "It would be nice if it rained!"

"Maybe it will go down soon." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed when she heard it.

"Let's go." Shen Yun'e stood up and said, "Second sister, when are you going to make mung bean powder, can you send me some?"

"Okay, okay." Shen Hui'e stood up and looked at her and said, "Think about something happy and make yourself happy."

"My head is like a mess right now." Shen Yun'e pointed her index finger at her head and said, "I just want to cool down, cool down, I want to jump into the well."

"Don't use well water! The shock of cold and hot can easily make you sick," Shen Hui'e reminded them.

"No, I was just kidding!" Shen Yun'e looked at her with amusement and said, "There's water drying at home! It's convenient to wash up. It won't go into the river, what if you slip!"

"Persevere, persevere, summer will be over soon." Shen Hui'e encouraged her.

"Yes!" Shen Yun'e nodded obediently, "Let's go."

"I'll take you there." Shen Hui'e and the others escorted the couple out of the house.

"Mother, Fourth Aunt seems to be very hot. She hasn't even sweated." Li Nu pointed to her forehead and neck and said, "It's all sweat."

"It looks like it must be very tiring." Da Chong said, pursing his lips.

"Is it so hard, mother?" Li Nu asked her with wet eyes.

"Yes!" Shen Hui'e looked at them with eyes as gentle as jade and said, "But when I saw you for the first time, all my tiredness was forgotten." She added tenderly, "Seeing you grow up day by day without any disease or disaster, and being able to help me with work, I am even happier." She joked, "It's not in vain, it's better than raising a puppy."

"Mom, we are much better than the puppy." Da Chong said a little embarrassedly.

"Mother, just now Fourth Aunt said that she would not have any more children. Is that true or false?" Li Nu asked, looking at her with his watery eyes.

"It's fake." Shen Hui'e said without thinking, "After giving birth, I forgot everything that happened before."

"Is giving birth to a child scary?" Li Nu looked at her with deep fear in his eyes.

"It's not scary. Didn't I give birth to both of you?" Shen Hui'e reached out and rubbed her head, saying, "Look, I'm fine."

"Why do women have to give birth to children but men don't?" Li Nu looked at his brother with his big, blinking eyes.

"You...you...what are you talking about?" The big tiger stammered, "This is God's arrangement."

"Hehe..." Shen Hui'e shook her head and chuckled, "Let's go! It's too hot outside."

"Will grandma come?" asked the big tiger, looking at her with his big, round eyes.

"I've already told her how to make mung bean jelly. If she wants to make it, just make it. You'll know tomorrow." Shen Hui'e looked at them with eyes as gentle as jade and said, "By the way, if they make it, please send our mung beans to your grandmother."

"Hey!" the tiger responded crisply.

"Can this mung bean jelly only be eaten in summer?" Li Nu suddenly remembered and asked her.

"It can be stir-fried and eaten in winter." Shen Hui'e looked at them with a smile and said, "It tastes very good! Fry more minced garlic, it has a strong garlic flavor..." The sound of the two people swallowing their saliva could be heard.

"If you're so greedy, let's stir-fry it tomorrow." Shen Hui'e looked at them lovingly and smiled.

"Okay!" The big tiger nodded vigorously when he heard this.

As expected, no one can resist something so delicious, mung bean jelly, the best food in summer.

In addition to the bitter summer and poor diet, the people have to do farm work in the fields and manage the autumn crops.

In order to harvest fruits in autumn, fertilizers must be applied and weeding must be done constantly.

You can imagine how horrible the dog days of summer are.

You can't do it at night because the light is not good and you can't tell the difference between the seedlings and the grass.

Since we can’t find anyone for now, we have to resolutely transform the farm tools.

Especially the plowshare, which was the biggest headache for her when plowing the land. She first modified the plowshare to save time and effort.

&*&

Shen Hui'e carried the plow and took the children to her brother-in-law Tiefeng's blacksmith shop.

Before I even got close to the blacksmith shop, I could feel the huge firepower.

Shen Hui'e listened to the sound of iron hammering coming from inside, put down the plow, and waited under the shade of a tree across the street.

"How long will it take?" Da Chong looked up at his mother and asked.

"It shouldn't take long. It's so hot in the shop, your uncle will definitely come out soon." Shen Hui'e muttered softly when she heard this.

Sure enough, not long after, the clanging sound stopped.

"Uncle, are you there?" Da Chong shouted towards the shop.

"It's a big beast!" Tiefeng's mellow voice came from the blacksmith shop.

"My mother is here too." Da Chong raised his voice and shouted again.

"Wait a moment, I'll be out right away. It's too hot in this shop." Tie Feng replied quickly. After a rustling noise, he lifted the straw curtain and walked out of the blacksmith shop.

"Huh..." Shen Hui'e was startled unexpectedly. Tie Feng looked like a cooked shrimp at this moment, his whole body was red.

"Why are you here, Second Sister?" Tie Feng looked at her with his bright dark eyes, and said in surprise at the plowshare under her feet, "Why are you here with a plowshare?"

"After some modification, plowing the land will be easier." Shen Hui'e said, kicking the plow under her feet.

"How can I modify this? I can only make the plowshare sharper." Tie Feng stared at the plowshare without blinking and said, "Now that we have the bellows, this is a very simple thing."

"This is already very good." Shen Hui'e looked at him gently and said, "Can this plowshare be like this?"

"What?" Tie Feng looked directly at her and said, "Let's talk about it in the room."

"Okay!" Shen Hui'e put the plow on her shoulder and said, "Let's go!"

"Let me take it!" Tie Feng looked at her with his dark eyes and stretched out his hand.

"No, no, I can still carry this little weight." Shen Hui'e smiled and said, "It's only two or three steps away, I can carry it."

Tie Feng took two quick steps and went to open the door.

Shen Hui'e carried the plow into the yard and saw Shen Yun'e sitting under the pomegranate tree, making clothes for children.

"Second sister, why are you here?" Shen Yun'e looked at her in surprise and said, pretending to stand up.

"Don't get up, don't get up. We sisters don't have to be so polite." Shen Hui'e said quickly.

"I'll go get you some water." Shen Yun'e put down her needlework and looked at them and said.

"We are still thirsty!" Shen Hui'e put the plow on the ground and said to Da Chong and the others, "Where is the water? Let Da Chong and the others fetch it."

"There is boiled water in the earthenware jar on the square table in the room." Shen Yun'e sat down again and said.

The big tiger and the raccoon slave ran into the main room.

"What are you doing carrying the plow?" Shen Yun'e looked at her in surprise.

"Brother-in-law, do you want to take a shower first?" Shen Hui'e said as she looked at Tie Feng who was still steaming hot. She was sweating like rain and looked like she had just been fished out of the water.

Tiefeng waved the fan in his hand and said, "No, no, Second Sister, just tell me if you have something to say."

"I will talk for a long time, you should cool down first! I'm not in a hurry." Shen Hui'e looked at him gently and said.

"Go! I'll talk to my second sister." Shen Yun'e urged him.

"I'll be back soon." Tie Feng got up and left.

"Let's eat now!" Shen Hui'e looked at her with concern and asked.

"The cold noodles are delicious, and they didn't make a fuss after eating them." Shen Yun'e let out a long sigh and smiled slightly, "Now I feel finally full."

"They are our children, and they all love to eat pasta." Shen Hui'e smiled when she heard that.

"Haha..." Shen Yun'e's face was full of smiles, completely sweeping away the haggardness and fatigue of the past few days.

"I had trouble eating a few days ago, mainly because I was worried that it would be bad for the baby." Shen Yun'e stroked her bulging belly and said, "I kept telling myself that I had to eat. I don't know if it was just my mind. Or maybe the cold noodles are really delicious."

"Both, both." Shen Hui'e looked at her with a smile and said, "What's more, the baby loves his mother, so he behaved well and stopped making trouble."

"Haha..." Shen Yun'e looked at her second sister with a smile, "I like to hear that."

"Is this dress made?" Shen Hui'e looked at the small dress in her hand and asked, "Isn't it a little big?"

"It was winter when the baby was born, so he must have spent most of his time in bed. By the time he could be taken out, it was already spring and flowers were blooming." Shen Yun'e picked up the clothes on the wooden table and shook them.
