Pig Killer

"Really?" Shen Hui'e looked up at the red pebbles and smiled, "They are quite beautiful. Let's put them in the most conspicuous place, okay?"

"Okay!" The raccoon looked at her with his bright eyes and said, "I'll pick out the colored pebbles."

"So good." Shen Hui'e looked at her with eyes as gentle as jade and said.

Please slaughter the pigs early in the morning, and go to the countryside to collect pigs at noon. If there are no pigs to slaughter, catch fish and kill them. Use the remaining time to cover the ground with a layer of pebbles.

After half a month, the house and front yard were paved.

"Mother, this road is clean to walk on, but it's a little painful to walk on." Da Chong stood on one leg in front of her and grabbed her arm.

"What's the feeling?" Shen Hui'e looked at him with amusement.

“I can’t explain it, and it doesn’t hurt…” Da Chong said as he looked at her with a frown.

"I understand. It's just sore and swollen." Shen Hui'e stamped her feet and said, "Foot massage is good for the body." She smiled and said, "You'll get used to it."

"This ground is much more comfortable to look at." Shen Hui'e's bright dark eyes looked at the cobblestone ground and found it pleasing to the eye.

"Mom, why isn't it raining?" said the cat slave, looking up at the blue sky.

"Spring rain is as precious as oil, but it seems that it hasn't rained recently." Shen Hui'e frowned and looked at the blue sky without a trace of clouds. "I wonder how the crops are doing?"

"Mother, I want it to rain so I can see if the ground is good." Li Nu stomped on the cobblestone ground.

"It will definitely be better. I won't step in the mud anymore." Shen Hui'e smiled and said, "Just wait! You will know when it rains."

"Then we'll wait." The raccoon slave said with a smile, "Mother, mother, is the iron pot not ready yet?"

"I don't know. I didn't dare to urge her." Shen Hui'e stroked the hair beside her ears and said, "What's that sound?" She turned her head to look at the door and heard someone shouting outside, "Second sister, second sister, I've made this iron pot for you."

"He's your uncle." Shen Hui'e said with bright eyes, "Let's go and take a look."

The mother and her two daughters walked to the door in two or three steps. Tie Feng walked over from a distance, looked at them and shouted, "Second sister, I have made this iron pot for you." He smiled and said, "Come and see, is it like this?"

"Mother, I don't see the big iron pot!" The tiger even stood on tiptoe to look around, "Where is my uncle?"

"Here it is!" Tie Feng patted his shoulder and turned around.

Seeing the true face of Mount Lu, the tiger was speechless and said, "It's so big!"

"It's really big!" Shen Hui'e looked at the big iron pot with great satisfaction, her bright eyes filled with smiles.

The big iron pot covered Tiefeng's entire back.

Tie Feng walked to the stall, untied the hemp rope on his chest, took down the big iron pot, and placed it on the chopping board. "Second sister, come and take a look. Is this the big iron pot you want?"

Shen Hui'e looked at the big iron pot in front of her and said, "This is what I wanted." She picked it up in one go.

"Be careful, be careful, it's very heavy." Shen Yun'e looked at her worriedly and said, "Second sister, my husband has been working day and night for your pot!"

"Thank you two for your hard work." Shen Hui'e looked at them with bright eyes and said, "I'll let you eat the delicious food I made later."

"That's pretty good." Shen Yun smiled and looked at her. "We've tried it. The food grilled on the iron plate is delicious. The food cooked in the big iron pot must be good."

"Haha..." Shen Hui'e looked at her with a smile on her face and said, "That's right!" She put the iron pot down. It was indeed heavy.

Shen Hui'e tapped the iron pot with her fingers, making a crisp sound that was really nice to hear.

"Mrs. Pig-killer, this is a big pot, how much food should be stewed in it?"

"It's enough to stew a pig."

“Can you finish this?”

“Sell it!”

"Ah! Now we are in for a treat."

Shen Hui'e listened to the discussions and looked over. She saw people on the third floor and the third floor outside.

Shen Yun'e looked at her with a smile and said, "They all followed us here. I shouted all the way."

"Mrs. Pig-killer, hurry up and use this iron pot to make some delicious food for us to see."

Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed when she saw this, and looked directly at Shen Yun'e and his wife with a clear gaze. What a smart person!

My brother-in-law Tiefeng walked over carrying a large iron pot on his back, attracting everyone's curious gazes, and everyone gathered in front of the meat stall.

Shen Yun'e looked at her worriedly and said, "Second sister, the iron pot you want is too big. This stove can't support it."

"It doesn't matter. Let's build another earthen stove and put up the big iron pot." Tie Feng said cheerfully, and then asked with a smile, "Where should we build it?"

"It's right here." Shen Hui'e pointed to one side of the stall and looked up at the thatched roof. "It's just right. It won't get wet in the rain." Standing on the open space, "The height of the earthen stove should be waist-high."

"So high?" Tie Feng looked at her in surprise.

"Stupid!" Shen Yun'e looked at him in disapproval and said, "You're standing while cooking! If you don't stand higher, your waist will be bent." She smiled and said, "You try standing over here, and you still think it's too low!" After a pause, she said, "Listen to my sister, this big iron pot is for her to use."

"Second sister, let's build it the way you say." Tie Feng said readily.

"We have to make adobe bricks first. The bricks have to be fire-resistant, otherwise the fire will be too strong and the bricks will be burnt into pieces." Shen Hui'e looked at them worriedly and said.

"The bricks we use to build the earth stove are all specially made, so there's no problem burning it." Tie Feng smiled and said, "I had people prepare the big iron pot as early as when we made it."

"Thank you." Shen Hui'e looked at him gratefully and said.

"What are you thanking me for? You're my second sister." Tie Feng said with a smile, and said with some embarrassment, "How do I build this stove? I've never built one before, so I'm not sure."

"I'll draw it for you, and we'll discuss the details later." Shen Hui'e said simply, looking at the big bug and said, "Go get a firewood stick."

"Hey!" Upon hearing this, the big tiger turned around and ran towards home. When he came out again, he was holding a burning fire stick in his hand.

Shen Hui'e took the fire stick and rubbed it on the ground twice to extinguish the flame, then drew a stove directly on the yellow soil of the street.

"This is the stove eye, where firewood is placed. It needs to be propped up with iron rods." Shen Hui'e pointed at the stove and said, "When the ashes are burned out, they will fall directly down, making it easier to remove the ashes."

"This stove is so convenient." Tie Feng looked at her in amazement.

"As for how big it should be, it depends on this big iron pot. We can take some adobe bricks and place them first." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her bright eyes and said.

"This way I'll have peace of mind." Shen Yun'e nodded quickly in agreement.

"Okay, I'll let them come now." Tie Feng said anxiously.
