Pig Killer

Chapter 127

"Of course, we need to continue researching new ways to make noodles." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her crystal clear amber eyes and said, "Noodles nowadays can't be kept for a long time. It's best if the noodles we make can be kept for five or six days so that people won't get upset."

"It's not okay in this weather!" Shen Changsheng gently waved his fan, looked up at the bright sun through the lush branches and leaves, and said, "It's not okay overnight."

"It definitely won't work in summer, but what about spring, autumn, and winter?" Shen Hui'e said, looking at him with her clear and bright eyes.

"Then what other tricks can you come up with?" Shen Changsheng looked at her curiously and asked.

"Wait until it's ready, please let me taste it." Shen Hui'e looked at him with a smile.

"Good!" Shen Changsheng nodded and smiled, "You really put a lot of effort into this food."

"Food is the most important thing for people!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with a smile and said, "It's not pleasant to be hungry. When people are hungry, they can do anything inhumane."

The experienced Shen Changsheng nodded in understanding and said, "That's right."

"When the granaries are full, one will know etiquette!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with deep and penetrating eyes and said, "It is better to study food than to spend money on wine and women."

"Ahem..." Shen Changsheng started coughing in shock at the shocking words.

"Why are you so surprised? Researching food can benefit the majority of people and make money." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her glassy eyes and said, "Living a life of debauchery not only ruins others." She whispered, "Robbing women." She snorted and said, "It also ruins your own body. Lust is a knife that scrapes bones! Besides the disadvantages, are there any advantages? The bamboo slips record that the king indulged in wine and women, but they were approved in large quantities."

"I have nothing to say." Shen Changsheng looked at her and said after a long pause, "It's good to study food. Study more."

"Speaking of steel knives, is the big knife that your brother-in-law made for you easy to use?" Shen Changsheng said, recalling the past.

"Brother, do you think it is useful?" Shen Hui'e asked with a smile.

"It's very useful, it can cut wheat ears very quickly." Shen Changsheng said with a smile, "The wheat husk pillow is also very comfortable."

"Our pillows are usually too hard and too high." Shen Hui'e touched the back of her head and said, "They are uncomfortable. These wheat husks were originally used for burning, but they don't last long. Now they can be put to good use."

"It's indeed a comfortable pillow." Shen Changsheng looked at her gently and said, "Why didn't I think of it."

"Because most people won't think this way, they will just follow the path of their predecessors." Shen Hui'e looked at him calmly and said with a smile without blushing or panting, "Besides, who would think about these trivial things!"

"Your idea makes life seem very convenient." Shen Changsheng looked at her with admiration through his dark eyes.

"Snap!" Shen Hui'e stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, looking at him with bright eyes and said, "That's right, I just want to make life comfortable and convenient, and pursue a higher quality of life."

"Then continue." Shen Changsheng looked at her gently and said.

"I'll just continue to think about it." Shen Hui'e looked at him with bright eyes.

"Is my second sister-in-law here?" Liu Ding shouted towards the yard while standing outside the stall.

"Woof woof..." Huang Er barked twice, and the dog looked at them in the yard.

"It's Uncle Liu." Hearing the voice, the tiger stood up and ran out, bowing respectfully, "Uncle Liu."

"Good boy!" Liu Ding looked at him with a smile and said, "Where's your mother?"

"Are you there?" Shen Hui'e came over and looked at him with a smile, "What's going on in the middle of the day?"

"Yes!" Liu Ding pointed at the bamboo dragonfly above his head and said, "I have a way to make it move on its own."

"What?" Shen Changsheng looked at him in surprise.

"My elder brother-in-law is here too!" Liu Ding bowed and said to Shen Changsheng.

After Shen Changsheng returned the gift, he urged him, "Tell me what to do?"

"The idea given by my second sister-in-law is like a spinning top." Liu Ding smiled innocently, "I tried it and it worked." He smiled and said, "Wait a moment, I will install it for you."

Liu Ding fiddled with the hemp rope on the bamboo helicopter for a while, then pulled the rope under his feet and put on wooden shoes.

"Do it like this." Liu Ding put on his wooden shoes and stepped on them with a clacking sound. When the hemp rope was tightened, the bamboo dragonfly turned by pulling and releasing it.

"Wow... the bamboo dragonfly is spinning." The raccoon said with his eyes wide open like black grapes as he watched the spinning bamboo dragonfly.

Liu Ding stepped on the ropes with a clicking sound. The hemp rope made a squeaking sound and the bamboo dragonfly spun around.

"This is amazing." Shen Changsheng's jaw almost dropped.

"Just keep stepping on it." Liu Ding looked at them regretfully and said, "If you step too fast, the bamboo dragonfly will spin fast. If you step slowly, it will spin slowly."

"I understand." Shen Hui'e nodded with a smile.

"Uncle Liu, let me try." The big tiger looked at him with green eyes.

"Here." Liu Ding made way and said.

The big insect put on wooden shoes and stepped on the wooden boards with a click-click sound. He tightened the hemp rope, and the bamboo dragonfly flew around.

"How did it start to turn? What were you thinking?" Shen Changsheng asked him curiously.

"I..." Liu Ding said with a chuckle, "You definitely won't be able to guess it."

"Don't keep us in suspense. Just tell me." Shen Changsheng looked at him and urged.

"The woman is winding a hemp rope, which is spinning very smoothly." Liu Ding said while gesturing with his hands.

They had all seen this thing before, so they understood it as soon as it was explained.

"You've thought of all this." Shen Changsheng said, patting his shoulder.

"Haha... I didn't think of it, I saw it." Liu Ding looked at them and said with a smile, "Under the shade of the tree, the woman was seen by the hemp rope." He smiled and said, "I thought about it and tried it, and it worked."

"Uncle Liu, this way, I won't have to use my hands to pull the bamboo dragonfly." The cat slave looked at him with eyes like black grapes and said, "It will turn too slowly that way."

"Yes! This is much simpler." Liu Ding looked at them and said with a smile like a child.

"Thank you!" Shen Hui'e clasped her hands and looked at him to thank him.

"Why are you so polite, sister-in-law?" Liu Ding looked at her with a smile and said, "I am thanking you because I can't finish the business with you."

"That's because you have good skills!" Shen Hui'e looked at him sincerely with her glassy eyes.

"That's right. My craftsmanship is not good enough. No matter how good my second sister-in-law's idea is, it can't become a reality." Liu Ding smiled naively. "Okay, that's all I have to do. I have to go back quickly. There is a lot of work to do!"

"Let's go!" Shen Changsheng patted his shoulder and said, "We won't see you off."

Liu Ding bowed to them and said, "I'm leaving." Then he turned and left.

After Shen Changsheng watched him leave, he looked at the bamboo dragonfly that was still spinning and said, "It would be nice if it could spin on its own."

"Are you still not satisfied with this?" Shen Hui'e looked at him with amusement.

"Whose feet are stepping on it when I fall asleep tonight?" Shen Changsheng said with great regret, "If it could turn by itself, I would definitely have a good sleep in the summer."

Shen Hui'e muttered to herself: I want it too! Power, without electric drive, it's just a thought.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Shen Hui'e said honestly, and then added with a smile, "It's still very cool in the countryside."

"That's what I said." Shen Changsheng smiled and said, "Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll leave too."

"Goodbye, I won't see you off." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at him with a smile in her eyes.

"Let's go." Shen Changsheng waved to them and left.

Shen Hui'e and the others watched him leave before saying, "Let's go inside!"

"Mother, can't we make one in this room?" The big insect looked at her with its black eyes and said, "Although it can't be turned at night, it can be used during the day!"

"Go find your Uncle Liu later and make one inside the house." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her dark eyes.

"I guess Uncle Liu doesn't have time!" The big tiger looked at her with his round eyes and said.

"Don't worry, just wait!" Shen Hui'e looked at them with eyes as black as black jade and said, "We can't delay your uncle Liu from making money." Looking at the shade of the tree in the yard, she said, "When our tree grows bigger, the shade can cover the house, and it will be cool in the summer."

"This tree grows so slowly." The big insect said with its black eyes looking at the big tree in its yard.

"Haha..." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed, "It's too slow for your uncle Liu to do it alone."

"Forget it then." The big tiger had no choice but to say.

"If you feel too hot, take a shower." Shen Hui'e said, her eyes falling on the backyard.

"I know." Da Chong looked at her with his innocent eyes.

"The summer harvest is finally over. Now it's time to catch up on the new words we missed." Shen Hui'e said as she glanced at them.

"I haven't written for some time. I don't know if you still remember it." Cheng Donglai scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Even if you forget, you will remember it soon." Shen Hui'e encouraged them with her jade-like eyes as they looked at their guilty consciences.

The sun was scorching, and the day was unexpectedly hot.

Fortunately, the day dawned early and the pigs were basically sold out before the sun rose.

It seemed that the neighbors were more afraid of the heat than she was.

The sun was so strong that there were few people on the streets, and the streets were distorted by the sun.

Huang Er lay under the shade of the tree, sticking out his tongue.

The weather is too hot. People are lazy and don't want to move.

"What do you want to eat?" Shen Hui'e cleaned up the meat stall and said to them.

Even though I was wearing thin clothes, they were soaked with sweat.

The ancients were not so conservative. Women exposed their forearms and collarbones, and did not cover their entire bodies tightly.

"It's too hot. I have no appetite." The big insect said listlessly, just like a leaf drooping in the sun.

"How about cold noodles?" Shen Hui'e said to them with her clear and bright eyes.

"Cold noodles?" The tiger's eyes lit up instantly.

"I'll make the egg pancakes. Da Chong, go into the house to get some money and buy some mung bean sprouts." Shen Hui'e said, her eyes fixed on Da Chong.

"Hey!" Da Chong responded crisply, took the copper coins, carried the vegetable basket, fanned himself with a straw fan, and left the house.

"What is cold noodles?" The cat slave said with his big, bright eyes as he looked at the mother who was scooping noodles.
