The Sickly Scion's Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool Chapter 50 - Killing a Pig

Chapter 50: Killing a Pig

Shen Yijia did not know that someone was already eyeing her meat and wallet.

She was dealing with the wild boar in the courtyard.

Although she had eaten a lot of meat, she had never killed a boar before. Thus, she moved Song Jingchen to the courtyard and let him read his book while giving her instructions.

Madam Li boiled water while the twins helped to peel the boar’s fur. The family worked hard.

“Mother, let’s keep the four legs and sell the rest in the restaurant. I’ll go up the mountain to hunt again after we’re done eating.” Shen Yijia’s thoughts were simple. It was convenient to cut off the four legs.

Besides, she felt that it was too easy for her to hunt in the mountains and get meat for her family.

“I agree to sell it, but how can a girl like you keep running into the mountains? It’s so dangerous.” Madam Li was amused by Shen Yijia’s words.

Shen Yijia stuck out her tongue and muttered, “I don’t think I’ll be in more danger than the prey in the mountains.”

Song Jingchen glanced at her, his lips moving, but he didn’t say anything in the end.

He finally realized that it was not easy to make Shen Yijia give up on something.

Together, they cleaned up the wild boar.

Shen Yijia raised her knife and cut off the wild boar’s four legs along its abdomen. Each leg weighed about 15 pounds.

The pig’s head and body were still there. Blood kept flowing from the stumps of the boar’s legs, and soon it was all over the ground.

Shen Yijia patted her head. Its blood was edible. She quickly ran to the kitchen and got four basins to collect the blood.

Song Jingchen’s eyebrows twitched. Brother Hao and Sister Huan weren’t so subtle. They were so frightened that they retreated away from Shen Yijia.

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. The meat was going to be eaten, did it matter how she cut it?

Anyway, it wasn’t important to her.

Madam Li took a basin and prepared to move the four legs to the kitchen.

Shen Yijia picked out two of the smaller legs and said, “Didn’t An Dong help out? I promised to send some meat to his family. I’ll send these two over.”

As for the others, she wasn’t familiar with them and had no intention of giving them any meat.

Song Jingchen paused and said casually, “You’ve been working hard today. Let Brother Hao and Sister Huan go.”

Shen Yijia asked uncertainly, “Are you sure the two of them can carry it?”

Was it really a good idea to use child labor?

Song Jingchen glanced at Brother Hao and Sister Huan. The two of them shrank away and said in unison, “Sister-in-law, we can do it.”

Not again. Not again.

When they were still in the capital, their big brother liked to look at them like this whenever they made a mistake. Then, he would punish them severely.

It had been a long time since he looked at them like that, but this gaze had long been engraved in their bones.

Shen Yijia blinked and did not object.

Seeing the two little ones run out with the boar trotters, she tilted her head and bent down to face Song Jingchen.

She narrowed her eyes and concluded, “Something is off about you.”

Song Jingchen looked at the little face in front of him and tried his best to ignore his wildly beating heart. He pretended to be calm and said, “No, you’re mistaken.”

After a pause, he changed the topic. “You stink. Go take a shower and change your clothes.”

Shen Yijia blushed and took a few steps back from Song Jingchen. She lowered her head and sniffed herself.

She argued indignantly, “I’m not the one who stinks. It’s that pig.”

As she spoke, she ran towards the kitchen. When she reached the door, she turned around and glared at Song Jingchen. “I’m not going to shower. I’m going to hug you to sleep tonight. You’re gonna stink as much as I do. Hmph!”

Song Jingchen remembered the scene of them sleeping together for the past two nights and blushed. Then, he laughed.
