Chapter 140 Chapter 140: He is raising pigs [asking for monthly votes]
Zhai Huan is cold and reserved by nature. He is often stern in front of outsiders, but he never smiles at his relatives, especially his cousin Zhai who he has watched grow up. Le, he also knows him best.
To put it crudely, if Zhai Xiaofang sticks his butt out, he will know what shit is brewing in his belly and what ideas he has in mind.
He asked: "What is Xiaofang thinking about?"
Zhai Huan's smile was a bit dangerous.
Zhai Le subconsciously straightened his back and said timidly: "I was just thinking...brother seems...not to see this going smoothly?"
"Of course, it's better to be more chaotic."
The tax issue may be a trigger.
Zhai Le suddenly looked up at his cousin, opening and closing his mouth to say something but not knowing where to start. He wiped the sweat from his palms on the hem of his knees and muttered: "It would be better somewhere...it's not like I haven't seen the days of those common people..."
A stable situation is conducive to the common people. Recuperate and recuperate.
Even small-scale armed fights between villages will affect people's lives, let alone large and medium-sized wars that can cost tens of thousands.
Thinking about the scenes along the way, Zhai Le still hopes that there will be no war and no war, so that the people can live in peace for a few days.
How could brother not understand this?
"Haha, Xiaofang's thinking is still too simple. The northwest is not a big place, but there are many people making plans. Only by muddying the water in the pond can you know who is restless."
Zhai Huan knows that chaos in the northwest of the mainland will happen sooner or later, and the current situation is just the calm before the storm.
With or without that fuse, the ending is very different.
The situation in the northwest of the mainland can basically be described in one sentence - the little devil in the temple is strong, and there are many bastards in the shallow pool.
It seems like a situation where countries are restraining each other to balance each other, but in fact it is a volcano that has enough energy and is waiting to erupt.
Zhai Le had no choice but to sigh.
Compared with the overall situation, the individual is too weak.
He couldn't help but complain - wasting time dealing with these things, it would be better to drink and have fun with Brother Shen, it would be so nice!
Zhai Huan knew with just one glance that his cousin couldn't sit still, so he said with a smile: "You can go out to play, but you can't cause trouble in the near future. If a stranger wants to make friends with you, you need to be more vigilant."
If the escort was really tax money——
Even if the county guard hinted that it was a fake team to confuse the outside world, Zhai Huan did not dare to take it lightly. After all, the credibility of a person like the county guard who is used to sneaking into the camp is quite low. Who knows whether what he said is true or false or just a test?
Even if he knew that his cousin was not a reckless man with no ambitions, he was still worried that Zhai Le would be taken advantage of unintentionally.
Zhai Le cupped his hands and pretended to accept the order.
Responded in a deep voice: "Brother, I dare not fail to obey your orders."
Zhai Huan shook his head with a smile.
While the two brothers were talking, the rest of the chessboard had been cleared up, and he said: "Xiaofang, play two games with me for my brother."
"Okay, but after the game is over, Ah "Brother, I want to have a drink with my little brother." He shook the wine jar he brought back from Shen Tang.
Zhai Huan said with a smile: "Okay, it's up to you."
There is a good atmosphere of brotherhood and respect here, but Shen Tang's side is not so good - this also depends on the fact that she went down the mountain with Chu Yao today. Speaking of the city. Chu Yao had to be busy with something, so he informed another cheap student to prevent the butcher family from thinking something happened to him and running away.
It is not convenient for Shen Tang to follow suit.
She made an appointment with Chu Yao on a time and place to meet, so she was so bored that she found a street corner and started working in her old business - selling wine and paintings.
Yes, you read that right, there are also paintings for sale.
The price for on-site painting and portraits is quite low, equivalent to a jar of wine. People passing by were attracted by the aroma of the wine, and occasionally came to ask about the price, but no one cared about the on-site painting package. Shen Tang was not in a hurry, wearing a rough reed hat and basking in the sun leisurely.
Until——
A slightly familiar incense penetrated the tip of my nose. Shen Tang raised the brim of his hat and asked who was coming.
“Mr. Gu, why is it you again?”
The young man was quite amused: "I should ask this next time. I haven't seen Shen Lang for a while, how is Shen Lang doing?"
Shen Tang changed his lazy and boneless sitting posture and subconsciously Sit up straight, smiling but not smiling: "I'm doing very well."
I cursed at my bad luck in my heart.
The person coming is none other than Shen Tang’s natural nemesis—
Gu Chi!
This person's way of being a scribe is simply a chatty nightmare.
Xiaocheng said it was not big, but it was not small either. He could find a place to set up a stall, but how could he always meet people like Gu Chi?
Gu Chi's mouth twitched slightly when he heard Shen Tang's heartbroken thoughts.
Hearing this, uninformed people may think that Gu Chi is like a pervert, squatting around Shen Tang, but little does he know that he just happened to be passing by on the next street. Under normal circumstances, the voices of ordinary people are chaotic, noisy and illogical. This young man is different. When he is bored, he can compose stories in his heart, with sounds, colors and pictures. He cannot ignore them even if he wants to.
“Where is Mr. Qi Yuan? He didn’t follow?”
"You mean Yuan Liang? He stayed at home to take care of the piglets. Those piglets have just been slaughtered and need someone to take care of them."
Shen Tang's words were surprising.
Gu Chi: "...???"
Take care of...
Piglets? ? ?
"Qi Yuanliang went to raise pigs?" He was stunned for a moment, almost suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears, and his expression almost cracked - Qi Yuanliang, who was famous in the northwest and had enemies everywhere, and many forces talked about it with gnashing of teeth, changed his profession. Become a pig farmer?
Seeing his reaction, Shen Tang laughed out loud: "Strictly speaking, that should be my pig, but I had to go out, so I asked Yuan Liang to help take care of it. Why do you look like this?"< br>
Gu Chi: "...seriously ?”
Shen Tang: “It’s absolutely true.”
The bandits around Xiaocheng are not the only one that Shen Tang and his gang have raided. There must always be a few capable guards left in the lair. , one of Gong Shuwu or Shen Tang must stay. Chu Yao lost his heart and had to be accompanied by someone, so Shen Tang volunteered to follow him.
Before leaving, she repeatedly told Qishan to treat her pigs well. Each one of them was severely damaged by "castration" and needed careful care. It wasn't just a litter of piglets, it was braised pork ribs, braised pig's trotters, sweet and sour pork loin, braised pork with pickles...
Qishan's face was ugly, but he still agreed.
Rounding up, I pray that there is nothing wrong with raising pigs in the mountains.
Gu Chi smiled meaningfully: "I would like to see it with my own eyes."
If I could eat a bite of the pig raised by Qishan, hum, even if the pork was so smelly that it would be hard to swallow. , he can also eat two bowls!
Shen Tang said: "What's so good about that?"
Gu Chi secretly shook his head.
He has seen a lot of strange and weird things in the world, but he has never seen Qishan raising pigs, and he cannot imagine the scene.
I have never seen it before, so it is rare, so it is beautiful.
Gu Chi seemed to be chatting or testing something: "Besides raising pigs, Qi Yuanliang has done nothing serious lately?"
Shen Tang was dissatisfied and retorted: "Why is raising pigs so unfair?"
Food is the first priority for the people.
Things related to eating are serious matters!
Gu Chi knew that Shen Tang was wary of him, and did not want to dwell on useless topics: "It's not going to be peaceful these days."
Don't believe Qi Shan doesn't know this.
Even with a good temper, it is impossible to raise pigs peacefully.
