Pig Killer

Chapter 190

"It's not good to be content with a small fortune." Shen Hui'e looked at Huang Bochang and the others with her deep black eyes and said, "The world changes too fast, and that little bit of wealth will soon be gone."

"I understand it very well, I understand it very well." Huang Bochang said with a wry smile, "If I hadn't made money last year and had a good harvest, I would have had to take my whole family out to beg for food." He sighed heavily, "Years of disaster and famine were not so difficult before."

"Because there is no end to the world now." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her deep and bottomless eyes.

"Yes! It will be fine after the season is over. There is hope." Huang Bochang nodded vigorously.

"As long as we have food in our hands, we won't be worried." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with calm eyes.

"We still have to find a way to grow more land." Huang Jichang looked at them with his bright black eyes and said, "Should we buy a cow?"

"Are you buying land?" Huang Shuchang tilted his head and looked at him and said.

"Buy them all, buy them all." Huang Bochang said with a smile.

"The output from the land is too little." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her dark pupils.

"We're not lazy. We've worked very hard." Huang Bochang spread out his hands and said, "Look at these calluses."

"I know, there are no idle people in a farming family." Shen Hui'e looked at his rough and calloused hands and said, "Simply put, raise pigs and chickens!"

"Isn't it being raised?" Huang Jichang said to her with his dark eyes shining.

"Does raising a few pigs count as raising? That's too petty. Pigs need to be hundreds or thousands, and chickens need to be tens of thousands." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with a smile.

"Hiss..." The three Huang brothers gasped in unison when they heard this.

"The whole body of a pig is a treasure!" Shen Hui'e looked at them with a smile and said, "It's just a thought now. We don't have that much food. How long can the common people afford to collect food like this?"

When talking about this bad thing, everyone wilts like eggplants hit by frost.

"Second sister-in-law has a special liking for raising pigs! Only when we raise pigs can Second sister-in-law kill the pigs, right?" Huang Shuchang joked when he heard this.

"That's right." Shen Hui'e looked at them calmly and asked with a smile, "Is the pork delicious?"

"Delicious, delicious." Huang Jichang nodded vigorously, "Especially the castrated pigs, they are so delicious!"

"If we raise more, the profits cannot be underestimated." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with a smile.

"There's a chance!" Huang Bochang said to them with gentle eyes.

Shen Hui'e looked at them with her crystal clear eyes and said, "I want to buy land. Is there anyone selling it here?"

"Really? No one will sell their land if they can survive. Land is our lifeblood. No one will sell it unless they can no longer survive." Huang Bochang stared at them with his dark eyes and said, "Then buy a cow. It's a big strong one."

"We'll go buy a cow later." Huang Bochang said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, are you going to buy a cow?"

"I can't do that. I have nowhere to put it after I buy it!" Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed, "Cows are big guys."

"That's right!" Huang Bochang smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. We bought some and can use them together when we plow the land."

"Yeah!" Shen Hui'e nodded with a smile.

"Let's go." Huang Bochang stood up and said, supporting himself on the wooden table.

"I'll see you off." Shen Hui'e and the others saw the Huang brothers off.

"Even the suspended ceiling business is gone." Da Chong looked at her with disappointment in his dark eyes.

"Food is the basis of life. It affects survival. If there is a problem with it, it will affect all aspects." Shen Hui'e's crow-like eyelashes trembled slightly, and her black eyes flashed with tiny lights as she looked at them and said, "Man is iron and rice is steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will be hungry!"

"Alas..." The big tiger sighed like an old man.

"You guys! It's not the time for you to worry yet." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with eyes as gentle as jade.

"It's right in front of us, how can we not worry about it!" The raccoon slave muttered with a pout.

"The summer harvest is over, let's go hunting." Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows slightly, revealing her beautiful big peach blossom eyes.

"Why don't you catch fish?" The raccoon asked with innocent eyes, "It's hot now, so we can go into the water."

"There are fewer fish and many people catching fish. We won't join in the fun." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her bright dark eyes and said.

"Last year we bought crabs, loaches, and small shrimps!" said the big insect nostalgically, "I guess we won't be able to sell them this year."

"Let's not talk about last year! The more we talk about it, the sadder we get." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her dark eyes and said, "Pain comes from comparison."

"Oh! I see." The big tiger responded listlessly.

"Go home!" Shen Hui'e patted his shoulder and said, "Cheer up, the sky hasn't fallen yet." She smiled and said, "Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up."

After paying the tax, there was only a little wheat left at home, and they had to hunt to supplement it.

Fortunately, there is a lot of game in the forest, and my archery skills have improved a lot with each hunting trip.

Of course, it is inseparable from the bowstring made of snake skin, which greatly improves the distance and accuracy.

With game and existing food, it's no problem to fill my stomach.

It was just daybreak and Da Chong and his companions were running around the county town as usual.

As soon as Da Chong and his companions walked out of the city gate, they saw their uncle escorting five or six people. Their faces were beaten like pig heads, and their bare bodies were covered with bruises and were tied up.

"Uncle, what's going on?" Da Chong asked curiously.

"They came to steal food and almost caused a fire that burned down our village. Fortunately, the fire was put out in time." Huang Bochang said with lingering fear.

"They are so despicable. This thatched house can't withstand even a flame." The big tiger looked at them angrily and said.

"Don't be angry. Fortunately we caught them. They are dead." Huang Bochang stretched out his hand to stop his nephew and said.

"You now?" The big tiger blinked its black eyes and looked at them and said.

"Send them to the government office." Huang Bochang looked at them with a smile and said, "You guys go and do your own things!"

"Hey!" Da Chong and the others bowed and saluted.

After returning from his morning run, Da Chong told his mother about this.

"Fortunately, fortunately, otherwise the loss would be immeasurable." Shen Hui'e said thankfully, patting her chest.

"What will be the verdict for those people?" Li Nu said viciously with a dark face, "They really deserve to die."

"I don't know about that." Shen Hui'e shook her head slightly when she heard that. She had never come into contact with the laws of this dynasty, so she really didn't know.

The verdict was announced quickly. Not only did he fail to steal grain, he also set fire. His crime was extremely serious, so he was sentenced to death and executed immediately.

This also served as a reminder to each village, and they all began to organize their own joint defense teams.

Even within this city, every household had to send someone to stand guard at night, for fear of any unexpected events.

Everyone responded well to the issue of their own safety, and Shen Hui'e and the others sent out a big insect.

"Is it okay?" Shen Hui'e asked her son worriedly.

"Sure! Why not? It's just one night of sleeplessness!" Da Chong said cheerfully, "It only takes ten days to get a turn. It's okay. I can do it. I'll go with Brother Douzi."

"Okay then!" Shen Hui'e had no choice but to say.

Because of the joint defense and increased vigilance, many villains were caught.

From the memory of the natives, although they did not reach the point where they left their doors unlocked at night, it did not happen from time to time like it does now.

Fortunately, fortunately, they were discovered in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Shen Hui'e carried the pheasant to the blacksmith shop and knocked on the door of Shen Yun'e's house. "How is it? The weather is too hot." Looking at her in short-sleeved shirt and shorts.

"You're cool enough." Shen Hui'e looked her up and down and said.

"At home, there's no need to be so particular." Shen Yun'e smiled and said, "It's really too hot. I'm holding that little guy, like a stove, heating him up."

"How is it? Did you get prickly heat from covering yourself up?" Shen Hui'e looked at her with concern and asked.

"No, no, I took the medicinal herbs given by Doctor Li, boiled the medicine soup, and took a bath, so I didn't get prickly heat." Shen Yun'e looked at her with a smile in her starry eyes and said.

"Where is my eldest nephew?" Shen Hui'e looked around and looked at the little guy lying on the mat, "Wow! You are so cool." The little guy was wearing a red bellyband.

"Aren't you afraid of mosquito bites outside?" Shen Hui'e said worriedly.

"There's a medicine bag tied around my ankle, so it can't be bitten." Shen Yun'e said with a grin.

"Ankle?" Shen Hui'e said with a smile, "I tied it on my hand because I was afraid he would put it in his mouth!"

"Yes!" Shen Yun'e took off her straw sandals and sat cross-legged on the straw mat.

Shen Hui'e put the pheasant in the kitchen, washed her hands, and took a small stool to sit on the edge of the mat. "The pheasant is still alive! After clipping its feathers, it may be able to survive for two days. Even if it starves for two days, it's okay."

"I can't even sustain it for two days. I'm hungry." Shen Yun'e said embarrassedly with a grin.

"Then eat it." Shen Hui'e said cheerfully with a slight smile, and then asked with concern, "How is it? Is there enough milk?"

"Enough!" Shen Yun'e looked at her with her starry eyes and said, "Thank you, second sister, for hunting. Otherwise, it would be impossible to feed him so much and make him plump."

"What are you thanking me for? He will call me second aunt from now on." Shen Hui'e bent down and picked up the little guy.

"Go pee first, don't let it pee on you." Shen Yun'e said worriedly.

"Hey!" Shen Hui'e squatted in the vegetable garden holding the little guy, "Come, apply some fertilizer."

"Huahua..." The little guy peed a big pee.

"So good." Shen Hui'e kissed the little guy's soft and smooth face, "He's not shy at all! Some kids won't let you hold them."

"Second sister, you come to see us from time to time, so of course you recognize me." Shen Yun'e looked at her with almond-shaped eyes as she sat on the bench and held her son in her arms.

"He smells good, and doesn't stink at all." Shen Hui'e grabbed his lotus-like arm and kissed him, "Those kids are so dirty, I don't even want to look at them a second time."

"I use the water dried in the yard, and I bathe frequently. I also use the pig pancreas made by my second sister to bathe, so of course it smells good." Shen Yun'e said, looking at her with her starry eyes.

"There's not much left, use it sparingly." Shen Hui'e warned her, "Without a pig to kill, I can't make pig pancreas even if I want to."
