Yan Zhenshen looked at Li Guaizi, whose face was red, and asked, "Do you want to get out or not?"

As he said this, he smashed the machete hard on the chopping board.

Li Guaizi subconsciously took a step back, then smiled flatteringly: "Look at how generous you are, young man. I'm here to take care of your business. Pig head meat is eight cents a pound, right? Give me ten cents."

This is definitely asking for trouble. You can either buy the whole pig head or half of it. How do you get the ten cents?

Yan Zhenshen is actually helpless in dealing with this kind of person. If you scold him, he will shamelessly refuse to give in. If you hit him, that's even better, he will definitely blackmail you.

"Why, you can't sell it for ten cents? Then fifteen cents, no more." Li Guaizi said seriously, "If you sell it for any more, I won't have money to buy wine."

Chu Xiao, who was sitting at the back, was amused by what he saw. This Li Guaizi was really talented.

He didn't even stand up, just sat there and said, "Brother Shen, there are a lot of bones in a pig's head, shave off the top of his head."

Yan Zhenshen really didn't know which part of the pig's skull was, but he obediently chopped off the pig's head. He picked the one with the most bones and threw it on the chopping board without weighing it: "Fifteen cents."

How could Li Guaizi be so nice? "I want meat, but this piece is all bones."

"Aren't there a lot of bones in a pig's head?" Chu Xiao finally stood up and said, "It's all cut up. If you don't want it, I'll have to find someone to judge for me."

People are generally idle in winter, and someone has already poked his head out to see what's going on.

Li Guaizi wanted to take the initiative when he saw more and more people gathered around him, but Chu Xiao spoke faster than him: "Uncle Guaizi, we have cut the pork head for you. You can't refuse to buy it, otherwise you won't be able to sell it to others."

The onlookers saw that the pig's head had been chopped into pieces and knew that no one would buy it, but since it was chopped into pieces, the stall owner would suffer a huge loss, so some people started to support him.

"If you can't afford it, don't let them chop it up. How can you sell it after it's been chopped up like this? Hurry up and pay."

"That's right. In this cold winter, people earn money by selling meat. Don't refuse to pay."

The person who said this was probably a vendor selling things in the winter, and he could best understand the helplessness of encountering such customers.

Li Guaizi was surrounded by a group of people and said angrily, "I said I only want fifteen cents."

Chu Xiao chuckled: "Uncle Guaizi, don't joke around. Who doesn't buy a whole pig head by the pound? I've already given you a discount because we're from the same village. How can you still refuse to pay?"

The people behind him also thought it was funny. It was the first time they had heard of a pig's head for 15 cents. "Hey, sir, as a man, can you have some dignity? You should be content with the bargain you are getting. A pig's head for 15 cents, don't make fun of us."

The onlookers also laughed.

Li Guaizi's face turned even redder. Although he was a shameless person, that was only in private. This was the first time he was laughed at in public.

He never expected Chu Xiao to do this to him. He glared at him fiercely and asked, "How much money?"

"This pig head weighs at least 20 kilograms. We are all from the same village, so I'll give it to you as 20 kilograms. You just need to pay 160 coins."

Under the urging of everyone, Li Guaizi had to pay, but he had less than 160 coins on him.

Chu Xiao shook his head helplessly, "Look, you don't have that much money, why do you ask us to help you cut it open?"

Li Guaizi's face became even uglier. He rummaged around again and took out a longevity lock that a child was wearing, which he had pulled off the little bastard's neck yesterday.

"This is more than 160 coins. I'll mortgage it to you first and exchange it back in two days."

Li Guaizi did manage to steal the lock, but he had no intention of exchanging it for money. After all, Brother Lin treated his son like the apple of his eye, and the longevity lock was bought by his ex-husband for his child.

As long as this thing is in his hands, Brother Lin will never be able to run away.

Chu Xiao knew where this thing came from at a glance. After all, Li Guaizi’s husband had no children.

"Okay." Chu Xiao took the longevity lock and let Li Guaizi take away the chopped pig's head.

But Li Guaizi came to the county town empty-handed, so he needed something to pack.

At this time, the person who had supported the argument before spoke up: "Want to buy a backpack? A large one is five cents, a small one is four cents, and a rattan basket is three cents."

This price was definitely one cent more expensive than usual, but Li Guaizi just wanted to leave quickly, so he spent four cents to buy a small backpack, put the pig head in it, and turned around and left.

The vendor selling the baskets saw the man walking away and tossed the copper coins, "Bah, you insist on packing garlic cloves when you have no money."

Then he turned to Yan Zhenshen and said, "Alas, it's bad luck to meet such a person. Don't be angry. It's inevitable to meet him when doing business."

Chu Xiao was not angry. The one who should be angry was Li Guaizi.

When everyone left, Chu Xiao smiled slyly: "Brother Shen, have you found the pig's crown?"

Yan Zhenshen also chuckled: "I didn't find it."

"It doesn't matter if we don't find it. Someone will be so angry that he's going to smoke." Chu Xiao put the longevity lock into his pocket. He wanted to see if Li Guaizi would come to exchange it.

Yan Zhenshen continued to pack up and asked Chu Xiao to go back and sit against the wall. There was shelter from the wind and next to him was the stove of the man selling crackers, so it wouldn't be too cold sitting there.

Chu Xiao didn't try to be stubborn. He sat back in his original seat and waited for Yan Zhenshen to finish cleaning up. He bought a few crackers before they went back.

When they got home, Yan Zhenshen pushed the person directly into the house.

Then he diligently helped to take off his shoes and put on his cloak, and finally hugged him in his arms and kissed Chu Xiao on the neck several times.

Chu Xiao chuckled: "It's so itchy, Brother Shen, please stop making trouble, it's too itchy."

Yan Zhenshen wanted to do this when he saw his husband's fox-like smile in the county town, but it was not good to do it in public. Now that he was back in his room, he really wanted to eat this little fox up.

"Husband, it's great to have you." Yan Zhenshen buried his head in Chu Xiao's neck.

"That's good to know." Chu Xiao pushed Yan Zhenshen's big head proudly: "If you know your husband is good, then you have to hurry up."

Yan Zhenshen closed his eyes and took a deep breath, the corners of his mouth slowly raised: "Well, hold it tightly."

Chu Xiao pushed him again: "Okay, go out and do your work. Remember to give the biscuits to the third sister."

Yan Zhenshen was a little unhappy. His husband was not like this before. He especially liked to stick to him, but now...

Is it possible that he is going to develop into the same trend as Wang Wu, and will be increasingly disliked by his husband?

But he is neither gossipy nor talkative, so why do you dislike him?

Chu Xiao: “…” I won’t take the blame for this. This is just the natural transition from newlyweds to an old married couple, okay?
