Chapter 25, Pig Dead Sellers

"Feed the pigs?"

"Feed the pig..."

Generally speaking, there are several plantains planted at home, and the leaves of the plantains are used to wrap something, but this is the first time I have heard of plantains being fed to pigs.

"What if something happens to you?" Shi Lu asked.

Zhao also felt in her heart, what if she was fed to death?
Zhu Erlang looked at Zhu Xiao.

Zhu Xiao faintly said, "I can't die!"

"Heh!" Lu Shi sneered, "If you say you can't die, you won't die. Let me tell you, I can't control you if you want to feed plantains to pigs, but what if you feed pigs to death?"

"If the pig is fed to death, I will let you handle it!" Zhu Xiao said in a deep voice.

That's what Lu Shi was waiting for.

"That's what you said, your parents are here, if you feed the pig to death, I'll sell you to the county town to be a maid!" Lu said solemnly.

In my heart, I wish Zhu Xiao would feed the pig to death with plantains.

That way she could justifiably sell Zhu Xiao to the county seat.

Zhu Xiao is the best-looking among the three sisters. If she is sold to the Goulan brothel in the county, she will definitely be able to sell her for more money.

Besides, Zhu Xiao has the hottest temper, Zhaodi and Hua'er listen to her, once Zhu Xiao is sold, no one in this family will dare to challenge her again.

"Yes!" Zhu finished the novel and turned to chop plantains.

Mrs. Zhao hid a little far away.

Zhu Hua'er was very worried, squatting beside Zhu Xiao, "Second Sister..."

"Don't worry, I won't die!" Zhu Xiao whispered.

It is that the plantain pigs cannot be eaten all the time, and the pigs will not grow meat if they eat too much.

In that room, Zhu Erlang was still immersed in Lu Shi's words.

Just because he fed the pig to death, Zhu Xiao was going to be sold to the county seat. Is this really his mother?How many children's grandma?

He wants to separate the family, even if he doesn't want a penny or has nothing, he still has to separate the family.

In this family, what's the point of working so hard without even getting a penny in your hands?
Turn around and continue sharpening your hatchet and scimitar.

This kind of machete is not the thin one, but thick, with a slightly curved tip, which can be used to cut grass or hook things.

Zhu Xiao asked Zhu Hua'er to boil a pot of water first, chop the plantains and put them in the pot to simmer, then boil water in another pot, when the water boiled, put some rice bran, stir vigorously, scoop some stewed plantains into it , boiled into a thin pot, scooped in a wooden barrel, and cooked several pots in a row.

Mrs. Zhao has been watching from the side, not interfering at all.

She was afraid that the pig would be fed to death, and her mother-in-law would sell her too.

When the pigweed was cold, Zhu Huaer called Zhu Erlang to come and feed the pigs.

This is the pig's supper.

Although Zhu Erlang was a little worried about feeding the pig to death, he was also inexplicably looking forward to it. If he really fed the pig to death and sold Zhu Xiao, he would definitely not follow, and maybe he could take the opportunity to raise the family.

Zhu Erlang also had his own plans in mind.

Pigs also like to eat plantains, they are delicious.

"..."

Zhu Erlang took a deep breath, it seemed that the pig couldn't die.

Zhu Xiao took Zhu Hua'er to hunt pigweed again.

"Second Sister, since pigs can't die from eating plantains, we'll keep feeding them with plantains. Why do we have to kill pigweed?" Zhu Hua'er asked puzzled.

"Pigs eat too many plantains and don't grow meat!"

"..."

Zhu Huaer was stunned.

Whispered, "Second Sister, if Grandma knows that pigs don't gain weight after eating plantains, will they scold us to death?"

"So let's not tell her, just feed her for one or two days a month, just wait, I will find a way to separate the family, and then I won't have to work so hard!"

Zhu Huaer's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help complaining, "I'm not afraid of suffering, but I'm afraid of working hard and not saying a good word, and I will be beaten and scolded!"

Not enough to eat, not warm to wear.

That's what hurts the most.

"It will pass!" Zhu Xiaoshen whispered.

The days when you can't see the future like this will pass soon.

When they returned home with pigweed on their backs, it was already dark, because little Lu's leg was injured, so Mrs. Zhao was cooking in the kitchen while Mrs. Lu was directing.

The noon buns were left over, so I only needed to make two dishes. Zhu Xiao went in to find sugar, melted another bowl of sugar water and brought it to Zhu Zhaodi to drink.

Completely ignoring Lu Shi's vicious and hateful eyes.

He went to the house to feed Zhu Zhaodi, and came back to break two eggs for the steamed egg custard. When the egg custard was steamed, he carried it out of the kitchen under Lu Shi's black face.

"..."

Lu Shi wanted to get angry, and wanted to grab Zhu Xiao and beat him up like before.

But thinking of Zhu Erlang who refused to go to the town, and Shu Xiu, his son and grandson, he forcibly endured it.

It's just six eggs a day. If you keep eating this trick, how much will you eat in a month?
Lu couldn't figure it out, but she knew it must be a lot.

Zhu Dalang went to town in the afternoon, and he wanted to stay at home like Zhu Erlang, but his son was still studying in school and needed money everywhere, so he didn't dare to be so capricious.

During dinner, the whole family sat together and ate in silence. No one spoke, especially when the atmosphere was weird.

After dinner, Mrs. Zhao got up to wash the dishes, Zhu Xiao took Zhu Hua'er and left.

"Second Sister..." Zhu Hua'er whispered.

"Since she wants to be a good person, let her do it. What do we care about? Get some rest and go to the mountains with me tomorrow morning!"

"What are you doing in the mountains?"

"Find something to make money!"

Hearing Qian, Zhu Hua'er's eyes were as bright as stars.

After washing it casually, and helped Zhu Zhaodi to go to the convenience, washed her too, and the three sisters fell asleep.

Zhu Erlang took a cold shower, returned to the house, and Mrs. Zhao hadn't come back yet, so he sat on the kang and thought about it.

As a man, with his daughter-in-law by his side, he would definitely think about those romantic things, so when Mrs. Zhao came back, he urged her to wash up. The lower body will start to move.

After being suppressed for a long time and being released, Zhu Erlang felt quite refreshed. He pulled Mrs. Zhao into his arms, and just about to say a few gentle words, he also contacted the relationship between husband and wife, and asked her to do the sorting work, not to help Dafang with work, Zhao's soft voice came, "You have to go to the mountain tomorrow, go to sleep!"

"..."

Immediately Zhu Erlang couldn't say a word, let go of Zhao Shi with a "hmm", turned around and fell asleep.

"..."

Zhao looked at the roof and bit her lip.

Turning her back to Zhu Erlang, she remembered the cloth and money Zhu Erlang had given her.

He pursed his lips and closed his eyes with a smile.

It was dawn, and because Zhu Erlang was going into the mountains, Mrs. Zhao got up early to cook.

Squeeze a few steamed corn buns, stir-fry some pickles, and let Zhu Erlang take them with you.

It's just that Mrs. Zhao didn't expect that Zhu Xiao and Zhu Hua'er got up so early.

"you……"

"We're going into the mountains too!" Zhu Xiaoxiao said, scooping brown sugar into the jar.

But I found that it was empty and there was nothing inside.

He immediately understood that it was Lu Shi who took the candy away.

"Hua'er, go to the chicken coop to see if there are any eggs!"

"Ok!"

Zhu Huaer immediately went to the chicken coop to look for eggs.

Seeing Zhu Xiao pinching the bun, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but said, "Xiao Xiao, listen to your mother and don't fight your grandma, we can't fight her!"

Zhu Xiao looked up at Mrs. Zhao, "How do you know if you haven't tried it? You are used to this kind of life, and it's up to you if you want to live like this for a long time, but our three sisters don't want to!"

She had to jump out of this fire pit!
