Pig Killer

Shen Hui'e's clear eyes curved and she asked with a smile, "Are the roasted rabbit and fish balls delicious?"

"Uncle!" Da Chong shook Shen Changsheng's arm and said, "Mother asked you if it was delicious?"

"It's delicious." Shen Changsheng came back to his senses and nodded hurriedly.

"My business is doing well!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with her deep and clear eyes and said, "With the money I earned these days, I can buy a pig and still have a surplus!" Her clear and mellow voice was as pleasant as the sound of a clear spring in a mountain stream.

"Does our family lack money? Just ask for it and we won't be able to give you any!" Shen Changsheng looked at her unhappily and said.

"My married daughter is taking money from her parents' home, shouldn't my sister-in-law be angry?" Shen Hui'e said jokingly.

"She dares!" Shen Changsheng said with a raised eyebrow.

Shen Hui'e was shocked when she saw this, "I... I was just kidding. Of course, my sister-in-law won't do that." She looked at him with calm eyes and said, "I don't know when Da Chong's father will come back. I can't always rely on others!"

"Others? Are we others?" Shen Changsheng looked at her angrily.

"I have to set an example for my children!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with her glazed eyes and said, "At least I have to teach them to be self-reliant! Life is too long. Even if you feel sorry for my hard work, they will grow up eventually."

Shen Changsheng was breathing heavily, his eyes fell on his pair of nephews, looking at their tender faces and pure eyes.

It's not a pleasant feeling to live under someone else's roof. My sister is right, God helps those who help themselves.

"Next time you go to the countryside to collect pigs, send the child to us." Shen Changsheng pointed his index finger at her and said, "There is no room for negotiation on this matter. An elder brother is like a father."

"Okay!" Shen Hui'e had no choice but to respond, "Don't worry!" She said with confidence in her eyes, "We will definitely not let the pigs run around. We will chase and intercept them. It's really embarrassing."

"A good girl actually killed pigs. You can ask around and find out who does this job?" Shen Chang looked at her angrily and said, "You're still laughing."

"Kill the pig and you'll have meat to eat!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with eyes as pure as black crystal and said, "Brother, wait for the pork. I'll tell my sister-in-law how to make it and ask her to make it for you. I guarantee it'll be delicious."

"I never knew you were so greedy." Shen Changsheng looked at her with a look of sadness in his eyes, "If I marry..."

"Brother!" Shen Hui'e raised her voice to interrupt him and glanced at the child.

Who to marry? How can I say this in front of the children!

Shen Changsheng was startled and said quickly, "It's better that Da Chong's father has not been recruited."

"I want to, too." Shen Hui'e looked at him sincerely and said, "But there's nothing we can do! Disobeying the order will result in death." She quickly added, "Let's not talk about this. God bless Da Chong's father to be safe and sound."

"Bless, bless." Shen Changsheng said immediately after hearing this, and changed the subject, "Are you teaching the children to read?"

"Yes!" Shen Hui'e smiled at him with clear eyes, "No matter what you do in the future, you have to learn to read, otherwise you will be cheated and still be stupid enough to count money for others!"

"You made this brush." ​​Shen Changsheng said in a deep voice, pointing at the brush on the small wooden table.

"Is it good? It's made of rabbit hair." Shen Hui'e's ink-black eyes reflected the setting sun and flashed with tiny lights.

"We don't lack brushes at home. You just need to tell me." Shen Changsheng glanced at her and said, "You are really good at making brushes with willow twigs and rabbit hair."

"Practice writing big characters, that's all." Shen Hui'e spread her hands helplessly and said, "We don't have bamboo here, wolf hair is the best, I don't like to see wolves, it can be fatal."

"Wolf?" The big beast asked, looking at her with its round, sparkling eyes.

"Wolf hair is the best brush, wolf hair." Shen Hui'e looked at them with eyes like glass beads and said, "We are practicing big characters! Let's use rabbit hair, brushes, and clean water. If you use ink, it will easily get all over your body."

Shen Changsheng knew that this was meant for himself!

"There are letters at home. When your handwriting becomes beautiful, you need ink to copy it. You won't refuse, will you?" Shen Changsheng looked at her unhappily and said.

"No, no." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed when she heard that.

"Um..." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her dark eyes, "Brother?"

"Hmm?" Shen Changsheng looked at her and said, "What do you want to say?"

"I thought of using pig hair to make it look like this." Shen Hui'e dipped her brush in water and drew the shape of a toothbrush.

"What? What is this used for?" Shen Changsheng looked at her in confusion and asked.

Shen Hui'e blinked her clear eyes and blurted out four words, "Clean your teeth!"

It's so ugly not to brush your teeth. It's impossible to even get close to her and talk to her.

Shen Hui'e gestured with her index finger, "Just brush out the stuff stuck in your teeth, rinse your mouth, and clean your entire teeth. You don't have to go through the trouble of picking your teeth."

Shen Changsheng's eyes lit up when he heard this and he said, "That's a good idea." He hesitated for a moment and said, "But the pig hair is hard, I don't know if it will prick my mouth."

"You'll know after you try it." Shen Hui'e looked at him with a smile.

"You are going to slaughter a pig tomorrow. This pig hair is a good choice for you to keep. I'll find someone to do it." Shen Changsheng looked at her tenderly and said.

"I wonder if it can be exchanged for money?" Shen Hui'e said as she looked at him with a gleam in her deep and bright eyes.

"This?" Shen Changsheng twisted a few strands of his beard and thought seriously.

"Ordinary people use bamboo or wood, and chopsticks are of similar length, but dignitaries use jade to show their status." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her bright eyes and her voice was full of temptation.

Shen Changsheng's eyes widened and his jaw almost dropped.

"Are you that surprised?" Shen Hui'e looked at him with amusement, her bright black pupils.

"No!" Shen Changsheng shook his head slightly, looking her up and down in surprise and said, "You are obsessed with money now."

"Now that you're in charge of the household, you know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive. A penny can make a hero fall!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with her dark and bright eyes and said with deep emotion.

"Okay! I'll try." Shen Changsheng looked at her with his dark eyes and said.

"Protect your teeth so that you don't lose all your teeth when you are 30 or 40 years old." Shen Hui'e said enthusiastically, "Rich families care about this very much. What's the point of living if you can't enjoy delicious food?"

Nowadays, all the food is coarse and it hurts your teeth to eat it, which causes great wear and tear on your teeth.

"It's ready. Bring it to me first." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her crystal clear eyes.

"Okay!" Shen Changsheng looked at her gently and replied.

"Speaking of money, do I need to borrow some money from you, brother?" Shen Hui'e said bluntly.

"How much do you want to borrow?" Shen Changsheng looked at her enthusiastically and said.
