Chapter 48 Turn off the lights and go to sleep (2/2)



Xiaohu raised his chin towards Cheng Chuan and hurried over to help.

"The dealer comes to get the pork before daybreak. He has old customers who are familiar with him, so he doesn't have to worry about selling it. But we don't dare to do anything rash. We only kill two pigs a day, no more."

Cheng Chuan nodded and watched Huang Weimin cut the pig's neck with a knife and catch the pig's blood in a basin.

Xiaohu has been working with Huang Weiminmin since he was a child, so he is used to it, and Cheng Chuan is a little unfamiliar with him.

He knew a little bit about how to kill pigs, because in autumn people would go up the mountain to hunt, and the most hunted animal was wild boar.

No one in the team knew how to slaughter a pig, but he was strong, so the team leader forced him to do it and just slaughter and chop the pigs at will.

Just turn the live pigs into pork.

Huang Weimin took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Boy, if you can't do it, just go chop the meat. Don't be afraid of that."

He thrust a big knife into the wooden board. Cheng Chuan picked it up, squatted on the ground, cleaned the pork, chopped it into pieces, and put it in a bag.

When the sky in the distance began to light up slightly, a crisp bicycle bell rang out.

The car stopped immediately and a man came over pushing a bicycle.

"Are you ready?"

"Okay, okay, take them all."

Xiaohu quickly moved the pork out and put it on the back seat of the dealer's bicycle.

Huang Weimin lit another cigarette and gave one to the dealer.

"Who is that person?"

"Little Tiger brings people."

"Is it safe?"

"Just wait a couple of days. This is hard work, not something anyone can do. If he can't do it, let him go."

Huang Weimin didn't think anyone could persist. He came to the mountain to slaughter pigs at three or four o'clock every day, and then had to go to work after returning.

No one can stand it.

At least he and Xiaohu didn't have to go to work, and they could even have some time to sleep when they returned to the supply and marketing cooperative.

Huang Weimin had no choice. His wife's medical treatment was expensive, so he had to take risks and work harder.

But there is no need for that kid to do that. He will probably regret it in two days.

"Okay, I'm leaving."

"Be careful."

Cheng Chuan stood aside, listening to them talking, and looked down at the blood on his hands.

The bicycle wheels rustled as they passed over the dead leaves.

Xiaohu followed a few steps forward, but couldn't see the bicycle anymore. "Master, then Chuan and I will leave too."

Huang Weimin waved his hand in agreement.

The two men walked down the mountain and squatted by the Pei Pei River to wash their hands.

"Brother Chuan, my master has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Don't listen to what he says. He's a very nice person."

"Um."

"Oh, right," Xiaohu moved closer curiously, "Where's my sister-in-law? Brother, why didn't you go home just now? Are you sleeping at my sister-in-law's house?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Cheng Chuan washed his hands, stood up, and ignored Xiaohu's silly look.

"I was right, brother. But sister-in-law is so beautiful. Did you agree to come to work for her? Sister-in-law is an educated youth, so will she go back? Are you two dating? Will you follow sister-in-law to the city in the future?"

There were also some educated youth left in the village, but not many.

The educated youth were intellectuals, and these old-fashioned people could only see the novelty.

Xiaohu was so curious that his head was about to rack his brain, and he followed Cheng Chuan to ask more questions.

Cheng Chuan didn't say anything, he didn't know either.

He didn't even dare to think about the future, and he knew he shouldn't continue with the young educated youth.

It would be unreasonable to take a step forward, but he was reluctant to take a step back.

We can only take one step at a time.

Following the rising sun, Cheng Chuan walked towards Wu Xiaohua's home.

He wanted to boil the water before going to work so that she could drink hot water when she got up.

Wu Xiaohua yawned and stood by the door to get some fresh air to sober up. Just then she saw the two of them walking back. "Wang Xiaohu? What are you doing here?"
