Chapter 271 It’s not convenient here

Zhang Xingwang returned to the house, originally thinking about wasting some time talking to Wang Xiulan and the old lady and making up some nonsense.

As a result, the old lady poured him some water calmly, saying that her grandson must have said a lot when he just went out, and he must be thirsty, so he should moisten his throat quickly...

Mother Wang Xiulan did not worry or ask questions as expected. She looked like a bullied woman, but occasionally she secretly showed dissatisfaction to the old lady. Now she looked at Zhang Xingwang with resentment...

That look seemed to show how unfilial he was. Zhang Xingwang muttered in his heart, "I didn't plan to carry you up the mountain to find a cave. Isn't the look you give me like an ungrateful person a bit too much?"

Zhang Xingwang quickly avoided Wang Xiulan, and looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fighting like bulls. He thought that this time it was because of his own affairs, and the woman was making things difficult for the woman. He asked the fourth sister who was rolling her eyes:

"Is mom okay? Why do you look a little weird?"

"What could have happened to mom? Grandma said a few words to her. Don't get involved. Brother, tell me what you do?"

Seeing the fourth sister's expression as if she had discovered a new world, Zhang Xingwang did not answer her. He just heard that Wang Xiulan was fine. He guessed that the old lady had already taken care of the aftermath for him. It was true that an old person in the family is like a treasure, which saved him a lot of trouble.

During the conversation, the old man asked about food three times, but was blocked by the old lady every time he opened his mouth. Zhang Xingwang also said that he would talk about it in the evening, after all, he had not yet made up a complete reason.

When the meal was almost ready, Zhang Xingwang saw that it was almost time, so he said that he had an appointment with his accomplice and was going out. After hearing this, the old lady gave Wang Xiulan, who was hesitant to speak, a look that said "you don't remember", and then held down the fourth sister who wanted to get up, and said to Zhang Xingwang in a calm voice:

"Go, come back soon, grandma will wait for you to come back for dinner..."

Looking at Wang Xiulan's aggrieved and worried look, he said unhappily:

"What are you looking at me for? Why don't you take your granddaughter to cook? This is a good opportunity to see how your cooking skills have improved recently."

After arriving at the kitchen, looking at the absent-minded Wang Xiulan, the old lady sighed and said:

"Xiu Lan, don't blame me for saying that. You didn't catch up. My brother from my mother's family is in trouble because of this. We are worried about some things, which makes him hesitate to go out.

Women are soft-hearted and cannot tell us some things in detail. Your nagging will only make him go out and be distracted.

Just listen to me, prepare the meal for him to eat when he comes back, and don’t ask about other things if you can. I know everything my grandson does, there is no mistake…”

After she finished speaking, she looked at Wang Xiulan who seemed to be thinking about something, and her granddaughter who was not paying attention at all, and then she quietly asked:

"How's the matter you were asked to monitor going? Is there a girl my dear grandson is dating recently?"

At this point, Wang Xiulan finally perked up and replied:

"Mom, you don't know that Yu Li whom I told you about before... Today I met another woman, she is very pretty. Xingwang insisted that she was someone else's wife, but I don't think she looks right.

I guess he wanted to fool me. I saw it with my own eyes. At that time, the woman ran straight towards Xingwang, laughing happily..."

The old lady laughed so hard that her teeth showed, and she applauded repeatedly, then asked:

"Xingwang is really capable. He got so much food. Do you have enough food at home?"

"Mom, we've never run out of food at home. It was just before the New Year when Xingwang brought back over a thousand kilograms of food from somewhere, but he took it away later.

Anyway, he always managed to get a lot of food every now and then, and we could even have a meal of fine grains occasionally. Anyway, since he recovered from his illness, we have never been hungry again, and we even went to a restaurant last month."

"Of course not. My grandson is very promising. Don't even mention you. No one in our family has not benefited from my grandson. We, the old couple, are the most blessed in the whole village now.

I eat and dress better than the brigade secretary. Whenever my grandson comes, he brings me gifts, such as candy and snacks, and meat all the time. I would never have dared to imagine such a life before."

After the old lady finished her rambling, she looked at the clumsy Zhang Ruonan and suddenly became furious. She started to yell at Zhang Ruonan:

"You silly girl, how come you can't even cook a meal? You have to..."

Zhang Ruonan was now struggling madly with the food in the pot with a frown on her face. Looking at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatting leisurely and supervising her at the kitchen door, her heart was broken. Thinking of her own great goal, she buried her head and began to work hard on cooking.

When Zhang Xingwang arrived at the pile of rocks on the mountainside, it was already completely dark. Looking at the woman sitting on the ground and poking ants out of boredom, he murmured in his heart. He was also feeling childish, but there was a little difference between a hunter and the women he usually saw. Maybe she was practicing some skills.

The woman looked up at Zhang Xingwang, stood up, patted the dust off her hands and buttocks, smiled shyly at Zhang Xingwang, probably a little embarrassed, and pointed to the forest behind her and said:

"Actually, I just arrived too. Let's go to the woods quickly. It's not convenient here..."

Zhang Xingwang listened to the "pa pa" sound and the woman's lewd words, and his heart was in turmoil. He thought that it was fortunate that Wang Xiulan was not here. If she saw this scene, even if he had a mouth full of mouths, he would not be able to stop her from thinking of a nickname for her grandson...

He took out a flashlight and followed the woman into the woods. The old man and the man were guarding a wild boar. They were really professionals. They tied the boar up like a dumpling and even tied up its snout.

The second brother gasped and struggled occasionally symbolically to show that he was still alive and fresh.

The old man's shrewd smile was faintly visible in the dark woods. He looked very tired. He must have rushed here without stopping for a moment. After catching his breath, he smiled at Zhang Xingwang and said proudly:

"Little brother, I haven't seen you for a while. Come and take a look at this wild boar. It's still alive. I've been raising it for more than ten days."

Before Zhang Xingwang could reply, he heard the man next to him muttering in dissatisfaction:

"I would have smoked it earlier. It took me more than ten days to raise the pigs, and I think the pigs are thinner than those smoked ones..."

The man's muttering was obviously a bit loud, and in the silent woods the volume was even louder...

The old man's face darkened when he heard this, and he almost couldn't hold back his shrewd smile. He gave the man a look that said "you don't know anything", then turned to Zhang Xingwang and said:

"My son is ignorant. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Live meat is definitely better than dead meat, and fresh meat is easier to sell than smoked meat. Don't you think this makes sense? Should we still follow the old process?"

Zhang Xingwang looked at the old man pretending to be calm, then used the flashlight to look at the weak wild boar on the ground, nodded decisively, and replied:

"It's definitely better to be alive. Anyway, it's hard to weigh. Please kill it before you go."

When the man heard the first half of the sentence, he was still thinking that he had wronged his father. After hearing the second half, he and the woman gave the old man a "kind" look.
