Qingfeng Li naturally didn't know what adults were thinking. It was rare to have free books to read, so no matter how hard or tiring he was, he would definitely let the children read books first.

It doesn't matter if their house is completed a few days later. Anyway, they won't have no place to live.

Da Chen patted Qingfeng Li's shoulder lightly. "You still act like the sky is falling. If your sister sees you, she will definitely spank you again."

Upon hearing this, Qingfeng Li immediately raised his head and glanced at the door with a somewhat panicked expression.

At this moment, Li Qingxiu didn't care whether Li Qingfeng was happy or not, because she, Li Dazhuang and the others had already started preparing to slaughter the pig.

When the men came to the yard to kill the pigs, they found that the four pigs were not tied and all were dead. No wonder they were so quiet and not noisy.

Li Zheng, who was watching from the sidelines, felt a little regretful when he heard that the pig had died and said, "Oh, pig blood was wasted in vain."

Li Dazhuang frowned and said, "No, this pig is clean and there are no wounds."

Li Zheng was very curious when he heard this, but unfortunately he couldn't act casually at this time.

Li Erzhuang took a careful look around a wild boar, even the pig's butt, but he still didn't see any wounds.

He looked at Li Lei and asked, "Erwazi, can you see how this pig died?"

Li Lei didn't answer, but touched the pig's body with his hand, but he didn't find any hidden wounds. It wasn't until he touched the pig's neck that he suddenly realized what was going on.

"This wild boar was strangled to death." After Li Lei said this, he touched the other three wild boars and found that they were all strangled to death. "They were all strangled to death, and the bones in the pig's neck were broken."

When the others heard that the four wild boars had been strangled to death, they all turned their shocked eyes to the busy little figure in the kitchen.

Mother! Li Qingxiu is really terrifying. They could not imagine the cruel scene of Li Qingxiu, a little girl, strangling a pig to death.

Li Ziyue looked at Li Qingxiu with great admiration. "Wow! Qingxiu is really amazing."

She really felt that Li Qingxiu and her brother were a perfect match. One was a strong heroine and the other was a weak scholar. Wow! They really match each other no matter how you look at them!

Li Qingxiu felt Li Ziyue's fiery gaze and couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. This girl must be thinking about her and Li Xuan again.

She took a basket and put some meat buns in it and handed them to Li Ziyue who was looking at her in a daze. "Bring these meat buns to your mother and your brother to eat. Go quickly, the buns will get cold soon."

Li Ziyue was brought back to her senses by Li Qingxiu's words. She felt warm in her heart when she looked at the big meat bun that was still smoking. "I didn't expect that you would even take care of my mother and brother. Thank you, Qingxiu."

"You're welcome, go quickly!" In fact, Li Qingxiu couldn't stand Li Ziyue's gaze, so he just found a reason to send her away.

At this time, a few people happened to come to Li Zheng to deal with something, and Li Zheng asked those people to carry him and Li Ziyue away together.

Li Dazhuang and Li Qingxiu asked for a few wooden barrels to put pig blood in. Although the wild boars were dead, their bodies were still quite warm, so they still had to put the pig blood.

As for the wild boar that was still warm after it died, Li Dazhuang, Li Erzhuang and Li Lei had no doubts in their minds. They thought that Li Qingxiu had strangled the wild boar not long ago.

The wild boar, which was silent and did not struggle, started to bleed much more smoothly. Li Qingxiu and the big and small Chens carried buckets of hot water to the yard and let the men start shaving the pig hair.

Mrs. Chen was about to say that there were not enough barrels and she wanted to go home to get the barrels. But when she turned around, she saw Widow Jia entering the yard carrying two barrels in one hand.

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "That's unfortunate. I wanted to say that I didn't have enough barrels and I had to get a bucket, so you came with the bucket."

Widow Jia put the bucket on the ground and said: "I knew yesterday that Qingxiu's niece was going to slaughter four pigs. I thought the bucket would not be enough, so I brought it over as soon as I finished my work. Oh, I was late. I didn’t expect you all to start shaving pig hair.”

Li Qingxiu pulled Widow Jia away and said, "It's not too late at all. I also left you a bowl of white porridge and two meat buns in the pot. Eat first and then get busy with your work."

Yesterday, Li Qingxiu told Widow Jia not to eat breakfast until she came to her house to eat breakfast, so now Widow Jia's chest is pressed against her back from hunger.

When she heard that Li Qingxiu asked her to have breakfast, Widow Jia was not polite, so she said to Xiao Chen and a few men: "Then you guys work hard first, I will have breakfast and then come back."

Xiao Chen waved her hand: "Go and eat, it's quite busy here."

Mrs. Chen put some hot water and coarse salt in a wooden basin in the kitchen. After stirring the salt to dissolve, she poured the pig blood in and stirred it again.

As soon as Widow Jia came in, she felt that the bloody pig blood affected her appetite. After saying hello to Mr. Chen, she brought breakfast into the room to eat.

When Mrs. Chen saw this, she smiled and cursed at Widow Jia's back. "This woman, I didn't know she was so particular."

After the pig hair was shaved clean, Li Lei was responsible for dissecting the pork. Li Dazhuang and Li Erzhuang began to bleed the second wild boar.

The elder and younger Chen sisters were responsible for boiling water and doing chores. Li Qingxiu, who was strong, was responsible for carrying pig blood or hot water back and forth.

The little boy, whose injuries were much better, stood by Li Lei's side and watched as Li Lei raised his knife and cut open the wild boar.

Take out the entrails of the wild boar and throw them into the barrel. The little boy stared at the pig into the water with eyes full of longing.

When Li Qingxiu wasn't paying attention, Li Lei cut off some pig liver and threw it on the ground. The little boy wagged his tail happily, then slurped and ate the pig liver on the ground into his stomach.

In fact, Li Qingxiu saw this scene, but the little boy was her own pet, and it was okay for Li Lei to feed him some pig liver, so she didn't stop him.

Widow Jia still remembered that the pig sesame made by Li Qingxiu was delicious, so she volunteered to help Li Qingxiu wash the pig sesame.

Li Qingxiu was naturally happy for someone to help her wash the pig's water. It was not easy to wash the pig's water on such a cold day, and it had to be washed several times.

She originally wanted to bring some flour and alkali for Widow Jia to wash by the stream with hot spring water, but Mrs. Chen had already brought a bucket of freshly baked plant ash to Widow Jia.

Li Qingxiu thought about it and decided not to send flour. I guess if she gave away the flour, those women would have to say that they wasted food.

It would be better to wait until Widow Jia cleans the pig waste, and then secretly wash it with flour herself. Washing the pig waste with flour and alkali can remove the odor and dirt from the pig waste.

While they were busy walking around, Zhao Cuihua came to the door with a basket. She kept praising Li Qingxiu's steamed buns for being very delicious. Even Li Xuan, who had no appetite these days, ate two of them in one go.

Seeing Widow Jia carrying the plant ashes and the pig sewage to leave, Zhao Cuihua knew that Widow Jia was going to wash the pig sewage, so she took the plant ashes and said she was going to wash the pig sewage with Widow Jia.

Mrs. Li Zheng wanted to mess with her, but Widow Jia repeatedly waved her hands and said she couldn't help it.
