Chapter 141 Catching Pigs
Chapter 141 Catching Pigs
Huo Yunchao pushed a wheelbarrow to Zheng Shaoxuan's new home and said deliberately: "Brother Zheng, the old patriarch specially arranged this house for you. Firstly, it is close to the Huo family's ancestral hall, making it convenient to go to and from school; secondly, it is close to a well. It is convenient for me and Sister Xiaocao to have water; Sanlao's house will easily deteriorate if it is left idle for a long time, and it is popular only if you can live there."
Zheng Shaoxuan understood instantly: "Brother Huo, I understand."
Huo Yunchao said the old patriarch's additional request: "The old patriarch wants the students to finish their homework in the ancestral temple and then go home to help with housework. The old patriarch is worried that some students are good and will not learn from the bad, just like me before. It’s an excuse to study instead of working in the fields.”
Zheng Shaoxuan hesitated to speak. He knew that Huo Yunchao was not decent in the past, but he felt that no one could make mistakes without being a sage. His brother Huo could just change his ways, and there was no need to hold on to the past.
Huo Yunchao said with a smile: "Hey, brother Zheng, don't look at me with that strange look. I am self-aware and I am not afraid of being laughed at. If I am wrong, I am wrong. I admit my mistakes and correct them. I am not ashamed."
Zheng Shaoxuan nodded, and just as he was about to say something, a parent of a student ran over in a hurry: "Master Zheng, I just heard that you are moving to the village. Otherwise, I would go with Yun Chao to help you move."
Zheng Shaoxuan thanked the other party politely, but he couldn't match the other party's enthusiasm and brute force, and forcefully took the wheelbarrow away.
Huo Yunchao raised his eyebrows. He couldn't help but take a few more glances at the student's parents. If he remembered correctly, this was Huo Yunrong, Huo Yunyao's eldest brother. I had never found Huo Yunrong to be so knowledgeable and knowledgeable before. Could it be that Huo Yunyao was the one who pointed it out?
Huo Yunrong walked in front pushing a wheelbarrow. He didn't deliberately ride with Zheng Shaoxuan.
He didn't yell at Huo Yunchao just because of his seniority.
He was so knowledgeable and knowledgeable that Huo Yunchao couldn't help but think highly of Huo Yunrong. Knowing how to observe people's emotions is a very practical advantage.
The three of them soon arrived at the door of the new home they were about to move into. The door was open, and there were more than a dozen people, men and women, inside, including those who moved tables and chairs, those who cleaned, those who inspected tiles, etc. Everyone had their own things to be busy with.
Huo Yunchao searched his eyes but did not see his wife: "Where is Ning Niang?"
Huo Yunyao replied: "My younger siblings are helping Mrs. Zheng clean up in the back room."
Huo Yunchao said calmly: "Brother Zheng and Sister Xiaocao are going to live here for a long time, and the chickens and pigs raised at home have to be driven over. Brother Zheng and I can't handle the pig, so we have to ask my mother Ning to help."
When Huo Yunrong heard Huo Yunchao's words, his face twitched a few times, and his mouth moved to say something. Before he could speak, his brother Huo Yunyao gave him a look, and he swallowed the words back with a dark face.
Huo Yunchao ran outside the house and shouted: "Ning Niang, come out! I can't deal with Brother Zheng's pig, so you have to do it yourself!"
This voice succeeded in causing everyone in the house to fall silent.
Lin Xiaocao noticed the different expressions of the women in the room and laughed out loud, breaking the strange silence: "Ning Niang, Huo Di really doesn't know how to hide and tuck in. You really want to let the whole world know that you have something." How capable he is.”
Regardless of what they were thinking, the women in the room all agreed when they heard what Lin Xiaocao said.
Xu Ning didn't pay attention to the reactions of other people in the room. She said to Lin Xiaocao: "Sister Xiaocao, you guys are busy first. I'll go home and get the pig cage."
Catch the pig. "
"Ning Niang, thank you for your hard work." Lin Xiaocao thanked her sincerely.
Xu Ning smiled and said, "If my sisters don't say these unscrupulous things, I'll leave."
As soon as Xu Ning left, the women in the room looked at each other. They had been worried about the identity of Xu Ning's coffin and were not willing to deal with her.
Even though Huo Yunchao's reputation became more and more famous and he created more and more ways to make money, they still didn't like Xu Ning privately.
It's not like "picking up the bowl to eat, putting down the bowl to scold the mother", they are simply "not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of the worst", afraid of getting some bad luck.
Lin Xiaocao silently took in everyone's reactions. She didn't show it on her face, but she was worried in her heart.
There is strength in numbers, so the inside and outside of the house are kept clean and tidy.
Lin Xiaocao repeatedly thanked everyone who came to help, and gave each of them some candy to express their gratitude. Xu Ning specially brought this to her. Although the parents of the students came to help voluntarily, she had to give some small gifts.
The parents of the students held the well-packaged candies in their hands, and the smiles on their faces were a little more eager. They went directly to the vegetable field to pick up some vegetables and deliver them to them without going home.
Lin Xiaocao knew their intentions and did not refuse their gifts. She expressed her gratitude seriously and collected the vegetables piled up into small piles by category. Lao Caiye helped pick out the vegetables and feed them to the pigs and chickens. The fresh ones were washed and put away.
Huo Yunchao had a unique skill in cooking. Lin Xiaocao was going to ask Huo Yunchao what his plans were before making other arrangements.
Zheng's Pig Pen
Zheng Shaoxuan was a little embarrassed: "Brother and sister, how about I go in and help you?"
Xu Ning shook his head and spoke firmly.
Ding: "Brother Zheng, don't worry."
Huo Yunchao said directly: "Brother Zheng, just put your heart back in your stomach. It will only be a disservice if the two of us go in. Professional matters should be left to professionals. Ning Niang, let's make a quick decision and I'll get you some water." handwashing."
Xu Ning quickly jumped into the pig pen. The pig that was originally humming at Zheng Shaoxuan immediately became more obedient as soon as it smelled Xu Ning's breath. It lay on the ground and made a grunting sound.
"Go in."
Xu Ning grabbed the pig cage with one hand and the pig's head with the other. With a little effort, he stuffed the pig into the pig cage. It took less than two minutes.
If the pig cage he brought wasn't a little too small, Xu Ning could have finished the job in one minute.
Zheng Shaoxuan was filled with admiration: "Brother and sister, you are really a hero among women!"
"Brother Zheng, I have followed my father to kill pigs and sheep since I was a child. The pigs are afraid of me." Xu Ning explained seriously.
Zheng Shao It’s even harder to put it in a pig cage after all the effort. I can’t do it without two people helping me. Sister-in-law, you are really amazing!”
When Huo Yunchao came in with water, he heard his brother Zheng praising his wife, and said to Yourong: "Brother Zheng, those people in the village laughed at me for getting married, but they didn't know that I had chosen a good home for myself."
Xu Ning gave him an angry look and couldn't help complaining to Zheng Shaoxuan: "Brother Zheng, don't listen to his nonsense. He is not afraid of making people laugh."
Huo Yunchao was not angry even after being scolded and said with a smile.
: "Hey, Ning Niang, I've filled the water, come and wash your hands."
