Chapter 420 The Wasted Grandson
As soon as Xie Lian walked to the door, he clearly heard Helian Bijun's words.
His body stiffened and he stopped subconsciously.
Helian Changjun did not answer.
At this moment, he was lowering his head, eating the wolf meat in the bowl in big mouthfuls like a greedy puppy.
Seeing her brother being so useless, Helian Bijun couldn't help but feel sad.
She would rather let her brother fall in love with that annoying girl than see him only have eyes for that bowl of meat.
It seems that my younger brother can only be a Helian eunuch in this life!
At this time, Shen Wan and others were feasting in the hall.
"It smells so good!" The big girl chewed on a piece of bone with relish. "Sister, take me with you when you go hunting wolves next time. I want to learn too!"
Before Shen Wan could speak, she saw Erbao frowning like a little adult.
He said seriously with a sullen face, "Girls are better off not going. Wolf hunting is too dangerous."
"Who says girls can't go?" The big girl's face darkened, and she retorted in a childish voice, "Isn't my sister a girl?"
Erbao looked at her for a while.
He didn't say anything, just lowered his head and continued eating meat.
Forget it, I won’t bother with her anymore.
Fourth Aunt is right. You can’t argue with girls. You have to give in to them.
"Aunt Wu, I want to learn too!" Dabao wiped his greasy little mouth and said in a muffled voice, "Once I learn how to catch wolves, I'll have meat to eat every day!"
When they heard that he wanted to learn, everyone lowered their heads and started eating.
With Dabao's character, if he were to learn martial arts, who knows how many people in the world would suffer.
"Fifth Uncle!" Seeing that everyone ignored him, Dabao looked at Xie Mubai like a spoiled child.
Xie Mubai didn't want to pay any attention to him.
"Uncle, please teach me!" Seeing that he ignored him, Dabao stretched out his shiny little hands and pulled Feng Er's clothes.
He wanted to push him away, but when he heard the word "uncle", Feng Er's eyes softened.
"Get lost!" Xie Murong pushed Dabao away and said angrily, "Don't you see how dirty your hands are? How dare you pull someone else's clothes?"
"Listen up, you must behave yourself from now on, or I'll beat you up!"
Mrs. Li only talked about taking care of the child, but the little Virgin Mary actually took action.
Under her corporal punishment, Dabao has indeed become much more obedient than before.
Seeing Xie Murong yelling at him again, Dabao immediately burst into tears: "You are all bad people, bullying me because I have no parents..."
"I want my father, I want my mother..."
At this time, Xie Lian came over.
Hearing his grandson's shrill cry, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Kid, what's wrong?" He walked up and patted Dabao on the shoulder.
Although he didn't remember anything, as long as this little fat boy was his grandson, he couldn't just ignore it.
Xie Mubai and Shen Wan are really something.
The child was crying so hard, but the elders didn't care and just focused on eating.
Even if the child has shortcomings, can't we just educate him slowly in the future?
"Get out of here, you old bastard!"
Dabao was already furious, and now that this unruly housekeeper dared to pat him on the shoulder, he became even angrier.
His face darkened and he pushed Xie Lian away.
This sudden push completely stunned Xie Lian.
He has lived for fifty years, but this is the first time someone has called him an immortal.
This person happens to be his own grandson!
Xie Mubai, however, looked as if he was used to it.
His face was dark, and his voice was cold without a trace of warmth: "Black Hawk, send him to the small dark room!"
When Black Hawk heard this, he picked up Dabao and walked towards the backyard.
"Let me go, you bastard!" Dabao struggled desperately, still cursing obscenely, "I'm the eldest grandson of the Duke of Zhenguo!"
"My fifth uncle has no children, so I will definitely inherit the title of Duke of Zhenguo in the future."
"When I become the Duke, the first thing I'll do is cut you slaves into pieces!"
Hearing the vicious curse, the blood color on Xie Lian's face disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Is this child really his own grandson?
"Uncle Shui, don't pay attention to him. This kid has always been like this." Seeing Xie Lian standing there motionless, Shen Wan hurriedly smiled and said, "Hurry up and sit down to eat. The meat will not taste good if it gets cold."
Upon hearing this, Ran Qiu immediately helped Xie Lian sit down.
"Uncle Shui, please sit down. The young lady has reserved a bowl of the tenderest meat for you." She smiled and quickly brought a bowl.
Looking at the wolf meat in the bowl, Xie Lian had no appetite.
He thought for a moment and asked, "Has the child always been like this?"
"That's right!" Before Xie Mubai could answer, Hu Dahai laughed first, "To be honest, he's doing pretty well now."
"When I was first exiled, I was such a hateful person!"
"If I didn't beat children, I would really want to cut him into pieces."
"But Uncle Shui, don't mind it. This child was raised astray by his mother, who is a complete piece of shit."
Xie Mubai told Xie Lian everything that happened along the way, including Zhao's romantic history.
Who would expect a woman with evil intentions like Zhao to raise a good child?
Thinking of this, Xie Lian felt a little uncomfortable.
"You guys have been eating wolf meat before the food arrived from the state capital?" He didn't want to think about it anymore, so he quickly changed the subject.
"What else?" Shen Wan smiled mischievously, "Of course, if there aren't enough wolves in the mine for us to kill, that's another story."
Black Hawk opened his mouth but was too embarrassed to speak.
He really wanted to say that if they continued killing at this rate, they would definitely wipe out all the wolves near Lanyang City.
Xie Lian wanted to speak, but Xie Mubai said coldly, "Everyone, eat quickly."
"Wan'er wants to pickle some wolf meat later. After we finish eating, let's all work together."
After hearing this, everyone started eating quickly.
After dinner, everyone went to the backyard.
Black Hawk and Feng Er were responsible for peeling the skin, while Chen Wan and Ran Qiu and other women were pickling them.
The weather in winter is so cold that meat doesn't spoil easily.
If you marinate it with coarse salt, it will probably be no problem to keep it until the beginning of next spring.
There are simply too many wolves.
Everyone worked hard all night before hanging the pickled wolf meat in the kitchen.
"I can't do it anymore, I'm sleepy!" Shen Wan yawned and said lazily.
Xie Mubai reached out and held her in his arms, saying gently, "If you're sleepy, go back to sleep quickly."
"You too, why do we have to do it at night? Can't we do it during the day?"
Of course not!
If Shen Wan encountered the disaster victims while pickling wolf meat in broad daylight, she would definitely share some with them.
It’s not that she is bad, but you can’t give her too much at once.
If you provide food occasionally, the victims will be grateful.
But if it is provided all the time, they will take it for granted.
What if one day I don’t provide it, won’t they scold me to death?
Shen Wan did not answer.
She just yawned and said weakly: "I want to sleep during the day..."
She was born petite and cute, and now that she was dozing off, Xie Mubai was reminded of the little puppy he raised when he was a child.
It looks like that. It really looks like that.
They are all soft and cute.
"Okay, let's go to bed now!" Xie Mubai pinched her nose and smiled dotingly.
Just as I was about to go upstairs, I saw Chu Wei rushing in in a panic.
"Oh no, something big has happened!" He said with a pale face and stammering.
