Pig Killer

Chapter 130

"You have such a kind heart." The noodle shop owner looked at her and said gently.

"No! If I put myself in their shoes, I also hope that someone will treat my child well in the future." Shen Hui'e looked at her with her bright dark eyes and said.

The noodle shop owner looked at her enviously and said, "Why don't I have children?"

"You didn't let Doctor Li take a look!" Shen Hui'e said as she looked her up and down like an X-ray machine.

He runs a noodle business, has some wealth, and looks healthy!

"See a doctor?" The noodle shop owner looked at her and said, blinking her almond-shaped eyes.

"Yes! If there is something wrong with your body, who else should you go to if not a doctor?" Shen Hui'e looked at her with clear eyes.

"It's so embarrassing to see a doctor!" The noodle shop owner looked at her embarrassedly.

"If you want to know why? Whether you are in good health or not, you must find a doctor." Shen Hui'e looked at her with clear eyes and said nothing more.

As for whether to see a doctor or not, that is none of her business.

The noodle shop owner had a face full of hesitation and struggle in her eyes, but when a customer came over, she greeted him warmly.

"Mother, will she go to see a doctor?" Li Nu said to his mother with his watery eyes.

"It's hard to say." Shen Hui'e looked at her with her deep black eyes and said, "People should never be afraid of illness and avoid seeing a doctor. If you feel unwell, you must see a doctor."

"Yeah!" Li Nu nodded obediently, and suddenly remembered, "My mother's crabs and shrimps have no meat and are not delicious at all. Is there really anyone who buys them?" He was deeply skeptical.

"Haha..." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed, "These side dishes are not for them to eat the meat, but for the taste."

"I don't understand. I still like eating meat, and big chunks of meat are best. They taste delicious." The cat slave looked at her with his bright eyes and said.

"We don't need to understand, they just need to spend money to buy it." Shen Hui'e said, scraping her straight nose with her fingers, "But you must like loach."

"It's slippery, like a snake." The raccoon slave blinked his watery eyes and looked at her and said, "This has a lot of meat, and it tastes good even when stewed."

Speaking of loach, Shen Hui'e thinks of a famous dish, loach in tofu, which has a strong local flavor.

When the crabs and shrimps came, they were indeed small.

"Mother, look, there's no meat on them." The cat slave said, pointing at the fighting crabs in the fish basket.

"After frying, we can eat it directly. It's crispy." Shen Hui'e said with a grin.

"You want it!" the children looked at her nervously and said.

"Of course, they are delicious." Shen Hui'e looked at her with eyes as gentle as jade and said without turning her head, "Son, give them money."

"Come on, wash your hands first." The big tiger said in a loud voice.

The children washed their hands happily and went home happily with the copper coins.

"Mom, what should we do with these?" said the cat slave, looking at the little ones covered in mud.

"Wash them first, then soak them in salt water to let them spit out the mud." Shen Hui'e looked at them with bright eyes and smiled, "Watch me show off my skills tomorrow."

&*&

"How are you going to show off your skills, sister-in-law?" Huang Bochang strode in and asked.

"What delicious food do you want to cook now?" Shen Changsheng, who came later, looked at them with a smile on his face and said.

"Why did you come together?" Shen Hui'e looked at them in surprise.

"Uncle, uncle." Da Chong and Li Nu stood up and saluted.

"Be good!" Huang Bochang said, looking at them lovingly.

"Sit down, let's sit down and talk." Shen Hui'e pointed to the bench and square table under the loofah rack.

The vines of the loofah are now long enough to cover a piece of sky and earth.

Huang Bochang and Shen Changsheng lifted up the hems of their clothes and sat down.

"Uncle, uncle, have some water." The big tiger came out with a pitcher of water and poured it into the two bowls that the cat slave had placed there.

"How come you have time to come here?" Shen Hui'e looked at them in surprise and said, "Aren't you busy?"

"I have good news to tell you today. I got a big deal." Huang Bochang picked up the coarse earthenware bowl and took two hearty gulps.

"What big deal is it that makes uncle so happy?" Da Chong asked, looking at him with curious eyes.

"The suspended ceiling business has expanded to the back house of the county government office." Huang Bochang said happily like a child.

"Wow..." Shen Hui'e cupped her hands, looked at him sincerely and said, "Congratulations." She then asked curiously, "How did you get it?"

"I really have to thank my eldest brother-in-law this time." Huang Bochang said carefully, "Before doing this business, my sister-in-law reminded us to be careful of idlers who steal chickens and dogs. We are not afraid of this. No one dares to touch the reputation of the Huang family. Once the name of my second brother is mentioned, everyone will know it. There is no need to worry about this." He picked up the rough pottery bowl and took two more sips, saying, "Money can move people's hearts. There are really people from the government who come to blackmail us. When we invite them to dinner, they want to show respect to us openly or secretly."

"Haha..." Huang Bochang said this and laughed.

"Uncle, uncle, please don't laugh!" Li Nu said anxiously to his uncle.

"Let me tell you!" Shen Changsheng put down the rough pottery bowl in his hand and said slowly, "My brother-in-law invited us to dinner, and the county magistrate next door also invited me over for some business. The place where I hosted the dinner was exactly the luxurious place where my brother-in-law hosted the dinner. It was a coincidence that we ran into each other, so I went to say hello. When this group saw the county magistrate, they immediately wilted."

"A higher-ranking official can crush people to death!" Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with a smile.

"That's absolutely right." Shen Changsheng said with a gleam in his dark eyes.

"Some of the shops that owed us wages have also settled their debts," Huang Bochang said happily.

"There really are unscrupulous businessmen!" Da Chong looked at his uncle in surprise.

"There are all kinds of birds in a big forest." Shen Hui'e snorted, "Not everyone is honest and trustworthy."

"They were so scared that they knocked on our door in the middle of the night." Huang Bochang looked at them happily like a child and said, "The bill was settled quickly."

"Then you must be careful when constructing the ceiling for the back house of the county government office!" Shen Hui'e looked at him cautiously and said.

"Of course. The mats and checkered mats must be of the best quality." Huang Bochang nodded heavily. "Our father personally reviewed it."

"Also, when you get to the county government, the backyard is full of female relatives. Don't look around and don't bump into others." Shen Hui'e looked at him with deep and penetrating eyes and continued to instruct, "Dress cleanly and neatly, don't be sloppy."

"Yeah!" Huang Bochang nodded vigorously after hearing that, and then asked, "Anything else? We haven't met the noble person yet, what should we do then!" He became more and more anxious as he spoke.

"Don't ask me about this." Shen Hui'e looked at Shen Changsheng and said, "Brother has met the county governor. He knows this rule better than I do."

"Brother-in-law, I'm counting on you." Huang Bochang clasped his hands and bowed.

"I'll tell you later." Shen Changsheng responded readily, "Second sister is right. If you are going to work, no matter whether the clothes are new or not, at least you should wear them neatly." He smiled and said, "In summer, we can go shirtless at home, but if you go to the backyard of the county government office, you have to wrap yourself up tightly."

"Brother-in-law is absolutely right to remind me." Huang Bochang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat when he heard it.

"Besides, other people's floors are made of wood, and your shoes..." Shen Changsheng stared at him in straw sandals, his feet were all dusty.

"What should we do?" Huang Bochang looked at them anxiously and asked.

"Take off your straw sandals outside and put on clean cloth socks." Shen Hui'e looked at him with clear eyes and said.

"That's right!" Huang Bochang nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

"Be careful not to get pricked." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her dark eyes.

Huang Bochang was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled and said, "My feet are covered with thick calluses, even thorns can't penetrate them. Don't be afraid."

"It's done. You've cleaned the floor." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her eyes as black as jade.

"We always clean up for the host." Huang Bochang said seriously, "Of course the county magistrate has to be more careful."

"That's all I want to say. You need to have life in your eyes and be more lively." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her bright dark eyes.

"I understand! I've benefited a lot from watching your sister-in-law do business." Huang Bochang looked at her with his dark eyes and said, "I was worried at first, but now your business is booming."

"We are forced to do this. Put yourself in their shoes and think about it. Make the owner satisfied." Shen Hui'e looked at them gently and said, "The buyer is our bread and butter. Only if we make him satisfied can we feel comfortable paying!"

"Haha..." Huang Bochang shook his head and chuckled, "What did you say just now?"

"We are thinking about how to eat the crabs and loaches we caught." Shen Hui'e said to them with a smile in her eyes.

"These crabs have no meat and are too small. It's not worth the effort. Loaches are okay." Huang Bochang said with some disgust when he heard this.

"You can fry the crabs in lard and eat them directly." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with a smile.

"Deep-fried? That's too..." Huang Bochang shook his head slightly, "I can't do this. I'm reluctant."

"Can it be sold?" Shen Changsheng looked at her worriedly and said.

"As long as it tastes good," Shen Hui'e said confidently, "If it doesn't work, we can eat it ourselves."

"Okay!" Shen Changsheng had no choice but to say, "Aren't you killing pigs?"

"We can't eat pigs like this! We can't even get one a day. The Xiong brothers have started killing dogs." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her sparkling eyes and said, "I have no choice but to find a new way to eat them. This won't last long because it's seasonal! After this time period, they'll be gone."

"That's right!" Shen Changsheng looked at her gently and said, "It's too hot. If you don't want to work, don't work. It's past the hottest time. Anyway, there are no pigs to kill now!"

"I will." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her jade-like eyes and said, "In addition to selling these, we can also eat them ourselves. With less meat, we can eat more grain."

"We can't live without meat. We will feel tired without meat." The big tiger looked at them with its black eyes and said.

"Is it not possible to eat fish?" Shen Changsheng said when he heard this.
