The Beginning of Siheyuan: The Pig Killer of Qinjia Village

After returning to the village office, Chang Wei tidied up and prepared to cook.

At noon, we planned to have some chicken stewed with mushrooms. The pheasants were not big, about two pounds, so Chang Wei chopped up two of them.

Qin Huairu saw Chang Wei chopping the chicken, and she went to the earthen stove to light a fire.

People in the village only have two meals, one after nine o'clock and one after four or five in the evening.

So Qin Huairu was smart enough not to go home, because there would be no food to eat at noon.

Stir-fry the pheasant in a pan, then cook it with smoke and water. Add more water as it is very durable.

Wash some rice in a porcelain basin, add appropriate amount of water to cover it, place it on the grate, and steam it together with the pot where the chicken is stewed.

After the rice is steamed and the chicken is cooked, add some mushrooms and various seasonings, stir-fry and it can be served in minutes.

Qin Zhengshan's desk became a dining table for the two of them.

I can only say that people of this generation have really big appetites. Qin Huairu ate three big bowls of rice, almost catching up with Chang Wei's appetite.

If they were of the same body size, Chang Wei would definitely be defeated.

The two of them ate up all the food, even the soup was soaked in rice.

Qin Huairu did not look like a lady at all. She squinted her eyes and touched her belly. She supported her body with her elbows on the table, holding her chin, and ate with a look of satisfaction.

"Burp~ Brother Wei, why is the food you cook so delicious!"

Seeing that Miss Qin Huairu's image was greatly ruined, Chang Wei couldn't bear to look at her and stood up to clean the table.

"Go home quickly! Your parents might think they ran away with someone."

Qin Huairu giggled, then stood up to help, reaching out to collect the bowl in front of her.

"I won't run away with anyone!"

I added in my heart, I will stick to you for the rest of my life, I won't run away with anyone else? Unless that person is you...

Chang Wei quickly put away the dishes and piled them up, glanced at Qin Huairu's belly that bulged out her clothes, and muttered in disgust.

"It's the same as how many months pregnant you are."

"Who are you talking about?"

Qin Huairu's pretty face turned red. Now that she was familiar with the game, she became bolder and started scratching Chang Wei with her claws and teeth.

Chang Wei smiled playfully, put down his bowl and chopsticks, turned around, put his hand on her slender waist, pushed her against the wall, and did a wall-dong.

Qin Huairu was stunned, and instantly quieted down, her cheeks heating up and becoming hot. After waiting for a few seconds, she saw Chang Wei didn't move, so she quietly lifted her eyelids and peeked. What she saw was Chang Wei's deep eyes and charming smile, and she quickly lowered her head, her slender little hands tightly grasping the corner of her clothes.

Chang Wei raised his eyebrows slightly, and stared at her with his deep eyes.

Qin Huairu felt as if she was stripped naked under Chang Wei's gaze. Her heart was beating fast, her eyes were flickering, and her eyes were full of tears.

She mustered up her courage, slowly closed her eyes, tilted her face upwards, and waited for the heart-pounding, embarrassing moment.

"If you're tired, go home. I won't entertain you."

Chang Wei laughed, raised his hand and gently wiped the oil off her mouth, then turned around, picked up the dishes and left.

〈Why are you tilting your face up and closing your eyes? ...Look at your mouth full of oil, and you don't even know how to wipe it off, and you need my help, you are so lazy.〉

Qin Huairu instantly opened her big eyes, which were full of autumn water, stomped her feet in anger, and tears burst out of her eyes.

Idiot, I'm already prepared, you think I want you to help me grease my mouth...

Humph~ You big idiot, you are so stupid, I will never talk to you again!

Ta-da! Ta-da! I went out and found my target at a glance.

He ran to the well, rushed over to Chang Wei who was squatting and washing dishes, and pushed him with all his strength.

As a result, the push failed. The angry Qin Huairu was like a little wild cat. She lay on Chang Wei's back and bit his shoulder hard.

Chang Wei saw that she was angry and embarrassed, so he didn't dare to tense his muscles and pretended to scream with his teeth bared.

Qin Huairu seemed to be still unsatisfied after taking a bite, and kicked Chang Wei's butt again, angrily cursing, "Chang Wei, you are a super big idiot, a big idiot~"

She wiped her tears, turned around, twisted her little butt and left without looking back.

Listening to the footsteps gradually fading away, Chang Wei: emmm...

How can you lay eggs if there’s not even a nest prepared? Will your parents be happy?

Jia Dongxu howled on the side of the road for a while, then walked towards the bus stop with a look of grievance on his face.

He kept muttering to himself that he had already shot Chang Wei and the matchmaker to death a hundred times, and even shot Qin Huairu to death no less than fifty times.

Qin Huairu, you actually fall for a country butcher and look down on me. You are so blind.

He is just taller than me, stronger than me, and better looking than me...but he is not as good as me.

After crying, the stingy person began to think, I will go back and ask my mother to settle accounts with Sun the matchmaker for not telling the truth and making me embarrassed. I will ask her to return the two dollars, and also compensate me for a day's work and car fare, and ~ there is also money for shoe repairs...

Chang Wei didn't think much about the joke with Qin Huairu. He washed the pots and pans, took the tools, and headed straight to the gravel homestead in the back mountain.

There are no stones to fill the foundation ditch, so today Qin Zhengshan led everyone to mine stones on the mountainside.

Arriving at the homestead and hearing the knocking sounds, Chang Wei saw a corner at the back of the mountain where a dozen people were mining stones under the scorching sun.

A bunch of them have been opened. I have to swing the sledgehammer one by one. This is a physical job.

Chang Wei walked over and greeted him from a distance.

"Uncle Shan!"

Seeing Chang Wei coming, Qin Zhengshan wiped his sweat and called a middle-aged man beside him to come over.

He introduced Chang Wei with a smile.

"Awei, this is Qin Zhengchuan, the second son of my second uncle. You can call him Uncle Chuan. He is an expert at making kangs and building houses. His craftsmanship is well-known in the surrounding villages."

Chang Wei smiled and walked forward, calling for help and handing cigarettes to the two men.

"Uncle Chuan, please stop smoking. I'll trouble you to take care of the house building."

Qin Zhengchuan nodded, picked up his cigarette, looked at Chang Wei and made a suggestion.

"Awei heard that you were going to lay some stones in the yard to facilitate washing after slaughtering the pig. I suggest that you lay a stone trough in the east yard that is large enough for you to use for slaughtering the pig, so that it will be convenient for washing and the blood will not be everywhere..."

"Uncle Chuan, I'll listen to you, you're a professional." I don't know anything about building a house, but other people are more professional than me, and this is their job. It's right to listen to them, Chang Wei smiled and nodded.

"Oh, and we need to build a dry toilet."

Qin Zhengshan interrupted with a smile.

"Don't worry! The second brother came to see the land early in the morning and chose a spot for you."

After careful consideration, Chang Wei took out a wad of change from his pocket and handed it to Qin Zhengshan. The villagers were not paid on a daily basis, but they had to pay first to buy materials such as adobe bricks.

"Uncle Shan, this is 150. If it's not enough, I can make up for it. It's so hot in this village. Does anyone grow watermelons? Buy some to quench the thirst of uncles and aunts."

Qin Zhengshan saw the wood beside the homestead as soon as he arrived in the morning. It took a lot of time to go up the mountain to cut wood. It was too dangerous to carry the wood down the mountain, so it took a lot of time. No one could do it like Chang Wei.

"That's enough. You've even prepared the foundation trench and roof beams. It will save you a lot of time."

"Uncle Shan, Uncle Chuan, you guys keep busy while I go up the mountain. We still need a lot of wood."

Chang Wei said hello and went up the mountain with his tools.

"Second brother, let's go to Uncle Qi's house and take a look at the watermelon field he has. I see the watermelons are quite big."

Qin Zhengshan invited Qin Zhengchuan to go to the village together. Chang Wei is a very capable guy.
