A car accident, our family of three crossed
Chapter 182 Pheasant
Master Wan waited for news in the courtyard from night to dawn, but still couldn't wait for the hunter Chai to return. As soon as the sun rose, he couldn't wait any longer and sent the butler Wan to Shangtang Village to inquire about the news.
"Go to Shangtang Village quickly to see if the man named Hang is dead."
Like Master Wan, Steward Wan also waited all night without rest. After receiving Master Wan's instructions, he immediately rushed to Shangtang Village without stopping.
Arriving at Shangtang Village, he lurked near the Hang family and secretly observed. Not long after, the gate of the Hang family yard opened, and the Hang student unexpectedly walked out of the yard intact and stretched outside the door. He thought he had seen it wrong because he had not slept all night and was too tired, so he rubbed his eyes and looked again, and the other person was still there stretching his muscles intact.
Butler Wan couldn't help but grit his teeth in hatred. They were cheated. The master's worries came true. That person really took the money and didn't do the job. It was really hateful.
In order not to alert the enemy, Wan Guanjia left after confirming that Hang Shuheng was still alive. After returning to the county town courtyard, he hurriedly went straight to the main house.
"Master, Master, this is terrible. I went to Shangtang Village and found Hang Tongsheng alive and well. That man, that man really ran away with the money."
"What did you say? That man took the silver but didn't go to kill the Hang family? How despicable." Upon hearing this, Mr. Wan was immediately furious.
The little money they had was actually cheated away by someone. It really proved the old saying that when people are unlucky, even water gets stuck in their teeth.
Butler Wan was very upset and blamed himself, "It's all my fault for not being able to judge people well enough to find such a liar."
"Master, what should we do next?" The money left now is not enough to hire another killer. Can we find those street thugs? In this way, their behavior of hiring a killer to kill people will most likely be exposed.
"What should I do? How do I know what to do?" Mr. Wan said angrily.
On the other side, hunter Chai spent several hours last night to finally return to Shangtang Village. At that time, the sky was still gray and not bright. He turned around and went up the back mountain, changed out of his night clothes and put on his hunter's clothes.
He shot two pheasants and waited until it was bright in the morning, when people got up, before carrying the pheasants down the mountain and asking from house to house.
He thought that ordinary people would not be willing to buy two pheasants at the same time. After he asked around, he would go to the Hang family as well, so that it would not easily arouse suspicion.
Sure enough, after he went down the mountain and asked several households, they all asked for the price and then shook their heads and sent him away.
He knocked on the door of the next house and a middle-aged woman opened the door.
"Who are you?" Aunt Sun asked curiously when she saw that the man was unfamiliar.
Hunter Chai quickly raised the pheasant in his hand and explained why he came. "Sister-in-law, I'm a hunter from a nearby village. I just shot two pheasants this morning. Do you want some?"
So that's what happened. Aunt Sun suddenly realized what was going on and asked about the price. "How much do you sell this pheasant for?"
"Two for sixty cents."
"Oh my! Thirty cents a chicken, that's several coppers more expensive than a domestic chicken!"
"Sister-in-law, the meat of the wild chickens in the mountains is firmer than that of domestic chickens. They are more expensive than domestic chickens. Why don't you buy them? This will save me from having to take two wild chickens to the county town."
"We are a poor family and cannot afford such good food." Aunt Sun seemed to have thought of something and said, "But I know a family that might like it. How about I take you there and ask them?"
"That's great. Thank you, sister-in-law."
Aunt Sun thought that Song Ning always liked to prepare delicious food, and pheasants were not often available. Maybe she would be willing to buy one if she saw it, so she led the hunter Chai towards the direction of the Hang family.
Chai the hunter didn't expect that she would lead him directly to the place he finally wanted to go, which saved him a lot of trouble.
"It's this house. There lives a young couple and a smart child. I don't know if they are home now." Aunt Sun knocked on the door and shouted inside: "Shuheng, Shuheng's wife, are you home?" Their family often went to the city, so she was not sure.
Soon, the door opened and Hang Shuheng came out. He saw Aunt Sun and a strange man standing outside the door. He looked at them and asked, "Aunt, what's the matter?"
"Shuheng, this guy is a hunter from a nearby village. He shot two pheasants and came to me." Aunt Sun shook her head and said with a smile, "It's not a festival, how can we bear to eat such delicious food? I thought your family is very particular about food, maybe you will like this pheasant, so I brought it here."
"I see." Aunt Sun is still as warm-hearted as ever.
Hang Shuheng turned his gaze towards the hunter and looked at him again. It was no wonder that he was suspicious. Something like that happened last night, and today a new face appeared in the village. It was hard for him not to think too much. However, the other party looked at him eagerly with a silly smile on his face, and he could not see anything abnormal.
"Uncle, how much do you sell this pheasant for?"
"Two together, sixty coins." Chai the hunter picked up the pheasant and suggested, "Look, this pheasant is still alive. If you can't finish two at once, you can keep it in a cage."
"Okay, I'll take them all. You wait here while I go get the silver."
Hang Shuheng came out quickly and handed the sixty copper coins that had been counted and strung together to the other party, "Sixty copper coins, count them."
"Okay, thank you, thank you!" Chai Hunter took the copper coins and counted them carefully. "Yes, sixty copper coins, no more, no less."
At this time, Yangyang's little head popped out from behind Hang Shuheng, but hid back after seeing the stranger.
When Chai the Hunter saw him, he was stunned for a moment. They looked alike, very alike. Then he praised calmly, "This child is so handsome!" This child is good-looking, and it is reasonable for any normal person to praise him when seeing him.
Aunt Sun agreed greatly when she heard this, "Brother, you really have good taste. Yangyang is the most beautiful child of our village chief, hahahaha..."
"That's not surprising. If the father looks good, the child will definitely look good too." While speaking, he glanced at Hang Shuheng. The man was indeed handsome, but he didn't look like the child at all.
Hang Shuheng didn't take the praise to heart. He was used to accepting compliments from others.
The enthusiastic Auntie Sun said quickly, "Brother, do you think this child doesn't look like his father? This child, he inherited the genes of his grandma."
