take this sword then."Ripple decisively took the sword.La Ye immediately dragged the boss away to discuss the price. Although they weren't short of gold coins, they didn't want to be taken advantage o...Ripple smiled and said:
"These wild boars are probably following you, and in the end it's a bargain for me. Just take them."
Then he picked up a wild piglet and shoved it straight into Wen Zhaoming's arms, continuing to say:
"You take this little one back and eat it, make sure to nourish your body. Recently, you should still not go up the mountain."
Your wounds aren't fully healed yet. What if you run into another wild beast like last time
"Even if you don't cherish yourself, you should think of your sister."
Wen Zhaoming didn't speak this time because he was indeed struggling to climb the mountain. But what Miss Su said was also right, if something happened to him, his own sister would definitely have to rely on others, and he couldn't refuse her request.
"Thank you, Ms. Su. I owe Ms. Wen."
"
Then we just go our separate ways.
"
Wen Zhaoming nodded in agreement. After all, they were four women; if anyone saw them, they would be gossiped about endlessly. This was also why, even though there were people in the village willing to take him into the mountains, he refused to join them.
The other two had already carried a wild boar each. An He extinguished the fire and placed the other piglet in a cage. Then, the four of them quickly descended the mountain and walked towards Sujiazhuang.
When Su Wu saw the heavily laden guards return, he was startled. He looked around but didn't see the young lady, so he finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Su Zhuangtou, the young mistress said that the tenant farmers worked hard during the autumn harvest, so let's go hunting in the mountains and get two wild boars. We'll slaughter them soon and each household will get a piece of meat."
Thank you for your gift, Miss.
Su Wu immediately smiled, unable to hide his joy. Who wouldn't be happy to have free meat to eat
The tenant farmers harvesting crops in the fields, upon hearing this, all broke into smiles and loudly thanked the two for their kindness, gratefully acknowledging that they had such benevolent landlords.
The ripples had already returned to their residence with their attendant, and then they spoke in a low voice:
That little piglet will be slaughtered tonight. I've been eating vegetarian food these past two days and it's making me sick. I need a change of taste.
Yes, Miss!
An He immediately smiled and agreed.
Although she claimed to be a vegetarian, she knew humans needed meat for energy. So, she immediately grabbed the piglet and prepared it for dinner.
In the evening, the air above Sujiazhuang was filled with the aroma of meat. Every tenant who ate meat thought fondly of Lianyi.
Everything was going smoothly on Ripples' side, but Wen Zhaoming was a little disheartened. Before he even reached his doorstep, someone told him that his uncle had gone to his house.
A flash of ferocity crossed Wen Zhaoming's eyes, but he quickly lowered his gaze and thanked her before quickening his pace towards home. However, before entering, he killed the piglet and hid it in the firewood pile, then carried the basket inside.
"Hey Ming, you're finally back"
A strange and eerie sound came, and in the next moment, Wen Zhaoyue ran over and took her older brother's hand.
Wen Zhaoming first smiled at his younger sister, then took down the backpack behind him and placed it directly on the ground. He said in a faint tone:
“You can stay at home, I can't. I have to support my younger sister, so I went to the mountains to pick vegetables early this morning. Just tell me what you need.”
How dare you speak to me like that I'm your elder!
You killed my unborn elder sister. What attitude do you want me to have when speaking to you If my elder sister were still alive, would you even be allowed in our house She would have kicked you out long ago.
"You"
Wen Sandi was speechless after being ridiculed. This was a stain on his life. Because of this incident, his second sister took her entire family out of the house and hasn't spoken to him since.
“Just say what’s on your mind, don't put on airs in front of me. If you had even a shred of respect for elders, I wouldn't treat you this way. Don't think that getting married changes anything. You are just like your father. I want to see if your son will be able to get married someday.”
"Well, well, how are you doing I went to great lengths to find a suitable match for you. Since you're so ungrateful, forget it!"
"If you have something good happening, don't you think of your son first It's my turn, isn't it Don't even think about tricking me. Just leave! I'm not interested. In front of the village elder, I said that before my sister reaches adulthood, I won't consider marriage!"
Wen Zhaoming's pair of cold eyes stared straight at his younger brother, Wen Sandidi. What he said also lacked any warmth.
Wen Sandi's eyes flashed with a hint of guilt, and he immediately said loudly:
"You're blind to your own good fortune!"
Then he stormed out of Wen Zhaoming's courtyard, grumbling and cursing.
Wen Zhaoming's face was cold as he closed the fence gate and went back into the house, shutting the door firmly behind him to block out the curious eyes watching the commotion.
Wen Shao Yue only then opened her mouth to say:
"Big brother, after my uncle arrived, he went around everywhere, even looked into the rice bin in the kitchen and wanted to rummage through cabinets. I stopped him, then he went outside and called a neighbor Mr. Li. Mr. Li said he was going to call you."
"Yue Yue is doing the right thing, but after your uncle comes, don't open the door for him and don't let him into the house, understand"
"Well, I got it."
Yue Yue nodded.
Wen Zhaoming went to the bedroom and then discovered that the room had been ransacked. Luckily, Yueyue was young and hadn't noticed. Thankfully, all the silver was on him, so the other party probably didn't find anything.
"Big brother, what does little uncle want to do"
Yueyue tilted her head and asked.
He can't stand to see our family doing well.
Wen Zhaoming said softly.
He is the villain!
"Stay away from him in the future."
"Okay, big brother."
Not until nightfall did Wen Zhaoming go to the firewood pile to retrieve the piglet, shutting the door behind him and cleaning it in the kitchen before salting it for preservation. He planned to wait until the neighbors were out in the fields tomorrow morning before preparing it for a meal.
Leaving now, San-di's face was contorted in anger. He felt a murderous rage building within him.
Back then, he couldn't stand Cen Ge'er's acting and got angry, pushing him which resulted in Cen Ge'er having a miscarriage. His beloved second sister, who always favored him, actually beat him up after the incident. He didn't admit his fault, so his second sister beat him every day. He still remembers his second sister's eyes at that time, so strange and cold.
But even his own mother dared not stop him, only urging him to admit his mistake. He didn't dare to argue back because he could feel Second Sister hitting him harder and harder. He didn't want to die, so after crying and admitting his fault, Second Sister's family left. He still remembers what Second Sister said at the time.
"Neither my husband nor I want to see him. Every time we do, I think of my five-month-old daughter and feel like killing him to avenge her."
He finally waited until that Cen Ge'er died. He even celebrated for it, believing all along that his second sister treated him that way because of that man's pillow talk. So once the other party was gone, he went to introduce a new husband to his second sister.
Instead of being grateful, the other party directly kicked him out and said that without his brother, now the second sister was also dead, her child disliked him just like she did, so he wouldn't be polite to them, and would never let the two of them have a good life.
Immediately, Wen San-di turned and went in another direction.or a moment, Lian swiftly plunged her blade into their throat.As the opponent hadn't fully collapsed yet, she immediately turned back to support Raul. The defensive magic circle in front of Raul was a...
