After becoming a top-notch peasant woman, she continues to be a top-notch
Chapter 10: Fanning the Pig
At this time, the rest of the Qiao family also came back. Qiao Chao heard the voice and walked out of the kitchen, "It's time to eat!"
Mrs. Qiao Chen looked at her boss, who was wearing an apron and had greasy hands. "Boss, are you cooking today? Where's Mrs. Zhen?"
At this time, Zhen Yue was already sitting next to the dining table, waiting for everyone to gather and start eating.
Qiao Chao: "Well, you guys try it." Qiao Chao was still a little proud. It was just a simple dish, it wasn't difficult for him. As expected of him, he was smart and learned it in a short while.
Mrs. Qiao was actually afraid that he would overcook the chicken and rabbit meat, so she quickly went into the kitchen and saw that the dishes on the table looked OK. She glanced at Zhen Yue and said, "Mrs. Zhen, have you tried it? Is this dish OK?"
Zhen Yue: "I haven't tried rabbit meat, but chicken is okay."
Mrs. Qiao Chen patted her chest and said, "That's okay." At least Mrs. Zhen didn't scold her eldest son, which means it's still okay.
The family quickly washed their hands and sat at the dining table. There were two kinds of meat today, so everyone ate more happily. However, Mrs. Qiao Chen still took out half of the chicken and rabbit meat, "Save this for tonight." How could they eat so much meat in one meal? What a waste.
Zhen Yue hadn't thought of this, but she just let Qiao Chen do it, so she just let it go. Zhen Yue couldn't eat the rabbit meat, but Qian thought they could eat a few more pieces, which was really a good feeling.
After eating and drinking, Qian cleaned up and washed the dishes. Zhen Yue returned to her room to rest, while Qiao Dashan and Qiao Er continued to fix the pig pen that had not been finished in the morning. Qiao San returned to his room to study. The two teachers were resting, so he did not go to school for the past two days.
Qian and Qiao Chen were doing needlework under the eaves. Occasionally they would make a few handkerchiefs and sell them for a penny or two at the shops in the town.
Qiao Chao came to Qiao San's room, "Third brother? Are you reading a book?" Qiao Chao glanced at the book in Qiao San's hand, and he recognized the words on it.
When Qiao San saw Qiao Chao coming in, he quickly put down his book and stood up, "Brother."
Qiao Chao asked him to sit down. "Third brother, you can read. I want to ask you if you know who the current emperor is?"
When Qiao San heard him ask this, he immediately stood up, looked around and whispered, "Brother, why do you ask this question?"
Qiao Chao: "No, when I went to work in the county before, I heard people telling stories about how the emperor had confiscated property and exterminated clans and so on. I was curious and wanted to ask." He looked at Qiao San's frightened expression and lowered his voice.
Qiao San: "We cannot know the emperor's name."
Qiao Chao: "Do you know the current country name and year number?"
Qiao San: "It is now the thirty-fifth year of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Qiao Chao: "Is it the Zhou Dynasty now? Then what dynasty was before the Great Zhou Dynasty? Do you know what dynasty it was before the Great Zhou Dynasty, third brother?"
Although Qiao San didn't know why his elder brother asked this, he still answered obediently: "It's Daxia."
Daxia? Isn't it his family's?
So, he has come to the latter dynasty now?
"How long did Daxia survive? Do you know which emperors Daxia had?"
Qiao San: "Great Xia has only gone through three dynasties: Emperor Xia Cheng, Emperor Xia Qian, and Emperor Xia Yin."
Qiao Chao: ...If I'm not mistaken, Emperor Xia Qian should be him.
Qiao San: "Brother, why are you asking these questions?" Even if the emperor confiscates the property and exterminates the clan, what does it have to do with them?
Qiao Chao: "I'm just testing you." Qiao Chao patted his shoulder and said, "Study hard."
"Oh."
Qiao Chao returned to the room. Zhen Yue was already resting on the bed, and the others had their own things to do. He thought for a moment, then walked out, got a machete, and carried a backpack, and went out, "I'll go out for a while."
Before anyone else could react, Qiao Chao had already walked out.
Qiao Chao went to the mountain again. He ate all the rabbits he caught yesterday today. As for the piglets he had to raise, he wanted to get more meat.
It was not until the afternoon when the sun was not so strong and the other members of the Qiao family went to work that Zhen Yue woke up and sat in the yard. She looked at the piglets in the pigpen. If the pigs were raised like this, they would still have such a fishy smell.
She remembered that those people in her previous life should have fanned the pigs when they raised them. Zhen Yue stood up and walked to the pig pen. After confirming that it was a boar, she touched her chin and said, "Wait for Qiao Da to come back, or let him fan the pigs?"
Speak of the devil, here comes the devil. Qiao Chao came back from outside at this time. He put down his knife first, then put down his backpack. Then he took out a dead deer, some bird eggs, a dead pheasant, and some wild fruits from the basket.
Zhen Yue looked at him, "How did you get here? Did you go to the mountains?"
Qiao Chao: “Yeah.”
Zhen Yue looked at him and felt more and more that this man was very different from the original owner's husband in her memory. The original owner's husband couldn't be so powerful. If he was really that powerful, this family couldn't be so poor.
Zhen Yue lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then looked up at Qiao Chao again: "Keep the deer, and sell it at the market early tomorrow morning. Don't let the villagers see it, or ask some wealthy families if they want it. Take the rest to the kitchen."
Qiao Chao knew that Zhen Yue was suspicious of him. She thought she would say something, but she said nothing. Qiao Chao was ready to deal with her questions, but she just arranged everything so easily.
"Okay." Qiao Chao did as Zhen Yue said. He washed a few fruits and handed them to the three little girls. The three little girls who were playing with stones on the side happily took them and said, "Thank you, uncle."
Qiao Chao came to Zhen Yue again and handed her one. Zhen Yue took it and said "Thank you" very smoothly.
Qiao Chao also glanced at her. This rude village woman actually knew how to say thank you?
Zhen Yue ate fruit and looked at the piglet, "How's your knife skills? Are you fast enough?"
Qiao Chao: “Wh…what?”
Zhen Yue thought about the marks on the dead deer and said, "It should have been fast enough."
Qiao Chao:?
Zhen Yue raised her chin and pointed at the piglet over there, "That piglet, get ready and fan it in a moment."
Qiao Chao: "!!! What? What's going on?"
Zhen Yue glanced at his lower body and said, "It's just fanned, cut it off and become a pig eunuch!"
Qiao Chao's pupils shrank, he felt a chill under his body and took two steps back.
Zhen Yue raised her eyebrows, "What are you afraid of? I'm not trying to incite you. I'm talking about a pig, are you a pig?"
Qiao Chao took two steps back in horror. This rude village woman was actually... actually... so scary!
Zhen Yue's expression turned cold, "Don't let me curse!"
Qiao Chao felt a chill on his back, thinking, why would he, an emperor, be afraid of such a village woman? Oh, no, he shouldn't be afraid, he just... just... well, because she is a pregnant woman.
Qiao Chao swallowed his saliva and said, "I know...I know. But I can't do it alone. And I don't know how to do it."
Zhen Yueyi thought, what if the pig moves violently?
"Then you can go together after father-in-law and second uncle come back."
Qiao Chao responded. Somehow he suddenly looked forward to the expressions of those people when they heard that they were going to fan the pigs.
