Pig Killer

Chapter 284

"We've become rich all of a sudden." Huang Zhongchang said with blurry eyes, "It feels like I'm dreaming. I hope everything will be gone when I wake up!"

"Do you want to pinch your flesh and feel it?" Shen Hui'e grabbed her hand and said.

Huang Zhongchang gritted his teeth and pinched his arm, saying, "It hurts, it hurts..."

"I was just joking, but you're serious!" Shen Hui'e looked at him with amusement and said, "Besides, you don't have to use so much force!"

"I'm really afraid it's fake." Huang Zhongchang looked at her with emotion through his dark eyes.

"Really!" Shen Hui'e said with a smile in her eyes as she looked at him who was worried about gains and losses, "This will be our capital for the future."

"Yeah!" Huang Zhongchang nodded vigorously after hearing this, and then he said, "It must be kept secret, keep it secret."

"I know! Now only you and my third brother know." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at him with a smile in her eyes.

"Oh, yes, how do we mine these?" Huang Zhongchang asked anxiously.

"There are still miners! They can continue mining." Shen Hui'e stopped and looked at him and said, "We just need to improve the living conditions in the mines and ensure safety during mining."

"It's as it should be, as it should be." Huang Zhongchang nodded hurriedly, "We are all risking our lives. We don't know if we can see the sun tomorrow after we go down."

"How did you know?" Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows and looked at him and said, "Did you hear about it?"

"I've seen it. Life is so miserable." Huang Zhongchang said with a sigh.

"Once the situation here is stable, let's go to the mine and take a look." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her ink-black eyes.

"Yes!" Huang Zhongchang nodded vigorously, "These have to be in our own hands."

"Mr. Huang, General Shen."

Shen Hui'e bowed to the patrolling soldiers and said, "Keep warm."

"Uh-huh!"

"Let's go!" Shen Hui'e watched them leave.

Shen Hui'e greeted everyone along the way and returned to the county magistrate's mansion.

&*&

"Mother, mother." When Da Chong and Li Nu saw them coming back, they immediately ran out to greet them.

"Just wait here!" Shen Hui'e looked at them both tenderly.

Li Nu took her hand and said, "It's done."

"The person is already dead." Shen Hui'e said calmly, "It is definitely him."

"Go in quickly, it's cold outside!" said Da Chong, pulling his father's hand.

The family of four entered the county magistrate's mansion and went to the study, where there was a kang, so it was warm!

"You guys chat, I'll go to the kitchen to take a look." Shen Hui'e said to them with bright eyes.

"Kitchen? Do you have to do it yourself?" Huang Zhongchang said to her with his eyebrows twitching.

"I'll go move my mouth." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her clear and bright eyes.

"Okay then!" Huang Zhongchang looked at her with his bright black eyes and said, thinking for a moment, "We'll go too."

"You're going to the kitchen?" Shen Hui'e looked at him in surprise.

"Can't I go?" Huang Zhongchang blinked his dark eyes and looked at her.

"You are a man!" Shen Hui'e said jokingly as she looked at him with her pure eyes.

"This guy is still a man!" Huang Zhongchang said with some guilt.

"You should stay and read these official documents!" Shen Hui'e pointed to the bamboo slips on the table and said, "Learn the basic situation of Hedong County as soon as possible."

"Well then!" Huang Zhongchang had no choice but to say, "Let me finish reading the file, and then we can talk."

"Is it okay?" Shen Hui'e looked at the file on the table and then at him and said, "No, let your son read it to you."

"You..." Huang Zhongchang's face flushed as he looked at her and said, "I can read."

"Haha..." Shen Hui'e slapped her mouth and said, "I'm sorry for talking too much." She slipped away and said, "I'm leaving."

&*&

Da Chong and Li Nu both covered their mouths and laughed.

"What are you two laughing at?" Huang Zhongchang asked embarrassedly.

"Nothing? Don't be angry, Dad. Mom didn't mean that." Da Chong explained with a smile on his face, "Dad is very hardworking."

"You might as well not explain!" Huang Zhongchang looked at him with a helpless look.

"Dad, Dad, look at the files." Li Nu pulled him to the table and said.

"Look too." Huang Zhongchang sat cross-legged on the futon and looked at them and said, "The stool is more comfortable. It's uncomfortable to sit cross-legged for a long time."

"Haha..." The big bug looked at him with his dark eyes and said, "Let Uncle Liu and the others do it!"

"These tables and chairs were delivered a long time ago. Why haven't the furniture in the County Magistrate's Mansion changed much?" Huang Zhongchang couldn't understand.

"I know!" The tiger looked at him with its round eyes and said, "Because tables and benches are for us common people to sit on, as nobles, they want to be unique, how can they be the same as us!"

"Maybe!" Huang Zhongchang pursed his lips and said, "Look at the files."

"My mother has sorted them into different categories." Da Chong said as he looked at the files on the table.

"How did you know that?" Huang Zhongchang looked at him, not quite understanding.

"There is a label on it, with my mother's handwriting." Da Chong said, pointing at the bamboo slips.

Sure enough, the handwriting is different from the one inside the bamboo slips. By reading this, I can know the approximate content of the bamboo slips and have a rough idea of ​​it.

We can't hold a celebration banquet now because it's too cold outside and all the dishes are cold. We might as well distribute the ingredients to the cooks and let them cook them themselves in units of 500 soldiers.

Of course, Shen Hui'e and the others couldn't finish all the pig-killing dishes, so they carried the food boxes to Wu Baizhu and the others.

Shen Hui'e pinched her brows, she really couldn't get these official positions and military ranks.

"What are you worried about?" Huang Zhongchang looked at her with concern and asked.

"Official position, military rank?" Shen Hui'e blurted out.

"Just follow the court's!" Huang Zhongchang said without thinking.

"Then I have to study hard." Shen Hui'e looked at them with clear eyes and said, "After all, we don't have much contact."

"As you should!" Huang Zhongchang pointed at the food on the table and said, "Eat, eat, or it will get cold."

After eating and drinking, the dishes and chopsticks were taken away.

"Dad, Dad, how long can we live here?" The big tiger looked at him with its black eyes.

"This... isn't this up to us?" Huang Zhongchang hesitated and told the truth.

"Then are you still going to renovate this county governor's mansion?" The big tiger blinked its innocent eyes and looked at him and asked again.

"Don't change it, just make do with it! Who knows when we might run away..." Huang Zhongchang pursed his lips and said, "Let's evacuate! Strategic evacuation." He smiled and said, "It won't cost a lot of money. Money should be spent wisely."

"Renovate the County Magistrate's Mansion?" Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows and looked at him and asked, "How do you plan to modify it?"

"I don't plan to make any major changes, it's just that this cushion is uncomfortable to sit on for a long time." Huang Zhongchang looked at her with his dark eyes and said.

"Tables and benches?" Shen Hui'e smiled and said, "Just make them if you want. They won't break."

"It can't be destroyed. I'm afraid that if we evacuate, this city and everything in it will be destroyed." Huang Zhongchang told the truth. "Smashing, looting and burning." He looked at her with dark eyes and said, "Not all forces, even the government troops, allow soldiers to cause trouble. It's normal."

"Forget it, let's not waste it." Shen Hui'e said immediately after hearing this, "This is also good, let's experience how the nobles live." After a pause, she said, "Okay, you guys stay here, I have to set up the military camp outside the city."

"Are you coming back tonight?" Huang Zhongchang said with his dark eyes flashing slightly.

"Oh! I won't come back. Now that we have more weapons, we have to start training quickly." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her jade-like eyes and said, "As a general, you have to be with the soldiers." She looked at her two children and said, "What about you! Do you live in the county governor's mansion, or..."

"I'll live in the military camp with my mother." The big tiger looked at her with round eyes and said, "I still want to learn how to ride a horse!"

"I'm following my mother too, and I need to train!" The raccoon said with his big, bright eyes looking at her. Kaba, Kaba said with his big, watery eyes, "Where's my father?"

"Of course I'll follow you. Just come here during the day." Huang Zhongchang said to them with his deep dark eyes.

"Yeah!" The two brothers and sisters of Da Chong said happily as they jumped and danced.

"What do you mean?" Shen Hui'e said to him with her eyes slightly narrowed.

"We are a family! We should be together!" Huang Zhongchang grinned at her. It was really worth it to see that her face always remained calm even when faced with a catastrophe.

"Yes! Yes! The conditions at home were not very good before, but now the conditions in this barracks are much more formal." Huang Zhongchang said to her with a smile.

"No, the conditions in this barracks are no better than at home, and they can't even be compared to the county magistrate's mansion." Shen Hui'e looked at them with eyes as black as jade.

"Then I can't stay in the county governor's mansion." Huang Zhongchang looked at them with dark eyes and said, "What will the soldiers think of this? Besides, it's better to live outside the city. If the enemy really attacks, it's easy for us to run away. If we are in the city and are surrounded, we will be made a fool of ourselves."

"Cough cough..." Shen Hui'e coughed twice in shock.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Da Chong looked at her with concern.

"It's okay, it's okay." Shen Hui'e shook her head slightly and waved her hands.

"Speaking of dumplings, we haven't eaten them for a long time." Li Nu said while sucking his saliva.

"Little greedy cat!" Shen Hui'e scratched her upturned nose with her index finger and said, "When things settle down, we'll make something delicious."

"I don't want to eat now, I know you are busy." The raccoon touched the tip of his nose with his index finger and asked curiously,

"What do you do next?"

"Murder!" Shen Hui'e said to them with a smile.

The room, which was as warm as spring, felt like it had fallen into an ice cellar and was shivering with cold.

"What are you talking about in front of the children?" Huang Zhongchang glanced at her complainingly and said, "They are still young!"

"This is the truth. If we fail to protect our family business, it will be a disaster for our descendants." Shen Hui'e looked at them with cold eyes.

"Aren't you afraid of scaring them?" Huang Zhongchang said in a low voice.

Shen Hui'e looked at him with a smile and said, "You think we are going to the execution ground? I want the children to feel the anger of the common people."

"Oh!" Huang Zhongchang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.
