Chapter 35

Five or six li away, it took only 10 minutes to drive the sled.

On the way, Wang An didn't sing any ditties and wanted to make some small moves, but was beaten and pinched by Mu Xueqing!

Wang An couldn't help but sigh; it seems the last time was Mu Xueqing's tacit consent! If this old woman really resisted, the man wouldn't be able to do anything at all!

After arriving at his father-in-law's house, seeing the two pigs brought over, the whole family was quite happy!

His brother-in-law, Mu Xueli, was even more excited and wanted to show off his pig-butchering skills, but the pigs were frozen solid, giving Mu Xueli no chance at all.

Mu Xueli went to fetch firewood happily, burning fire in the stove to thaw the pigs!

Wang An ignored him and went into the room to chat with his father-in-law, and by the way, teased his sister-in-law.

At home, he had two little sisters, and at his father-in-law's house, he had a sister-in-law; the three little sisters were all quirky and especially cute!

Perhaps because he was lonely for his whole life in his past life, Wang An especially liked children!

Butchering the pigs was impossible; it was freezing cold... mainly, someone had to accompany his father-in-law to chat!

His father-in-law was still more important! No problem!

"Xueting, brother-in-law brought you pork to eat. Am I good?" Wang An asked his sister-in-law with a smile.

"Yeah, brother-in-law is the best! I've been craving pork!" his sister-in-law swallowed her saliva and said sweetly.

"Hahahaha, then shouldn't you thank brother-in-law?" Wang An said like a big bad wolf tempting a little white rabbit.

"Thank you, brother-in-law!" his sister-in-law blinked her watery eyes.

"So that's it, just a thank you?" Wang An pretended to be surprised and continued to execute his scheme.

His sister-in-law blinked her big eyes and thought for a long time, not knowing what brother-in-law meant!

Seeing his evil plan was about to succeed, Wang An pretended to talk to himself: "If only there were a little sister who would kiss me on the face, that would be great!"

Mu Xueqing, standing at the door, saw this scene and covered her mouth to giggle, seemingly wanting to know how her sister would react.

Her father-in-law and mother-in-law watched this scene with smiles.

His sister-in-law looked at Wang An and asked innocently: "Just like how Daddy kisses Mommy?"

Uh!

Wang An was stunned on the spot!

Mu Xueqing, who was peeking, turned around and quietly went to the outer room!

His father-in-law's eyes widened!

His mother-in-law was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red, and she pretended not to care and scolded: "You silly girl, talking nonsense."

Wang An was stunned for a moment before reacting; this was too damn awkward!

He pretended he hadn't heard anything and didn't dare to look around at the awkward faces!

He just continued looking at his sister-in-law and said: "Then to show your gratitude, shouldn't you kiss brother-in-law?"

His sister-in-law didn't speak, but pounced over and kissed Wang An on his big cheek!

Wang An laughed loudly and held his sister-in-law in his arms.

This child was already 7 years old, yet she wasn't as tall as his two little sisters at home, and even lighter, as if she had no weight at all!

He felt that his two sisters were already malnourished enough and small enough!

And since he was reborn, his family basically had meat to eat every meal, and the three little ones drank some malted milk every day; his two little sisters were already visibly fatter than before!

But he didn't expect his sister-in-law to be even worse! This was skin and bones, not even two taels of meat on her whole body!

"Mom, where is the malted milk I gave you last time? Didn't you give Xueting any to drink?" Wang An frowned and said.

"No, no, I was just thinking..." Liu Ruxin stammered, not finishing.

Wang An interrupted impatiently: "Thinking what? What's there to think about? Look how thin this child is!"

Actually, Liu Ruxin wanted to tell Wang An that they intended to sell these things or exchange them for daily necessities!

Normally, when a son-in-law comes, he should be served well.

These things should have been taken out to entertain Wang An, but most of them had been sold or exchanged by her!

So she was stammering, wanting to ask Wang An to be more understanding!

Wang An actually didn't think much of it; life was so bitter, there was nothing to pick on!

He was just angry for his sister-in-law's body!

He also didn't act like a son-in-law at all, as if he were the master of this house!

After speaking, he seemed to feel it was inappropriate, but he didn't restrain himself and continued with some anger: "Go find it quickly and brew a bowl for Xueting!"

Although Liu Ruxin was strong, she felt guilty toward her children, and at this moment, her son-in-law was like a bandit, so she was still a bit afraid!

She hurriedly found the malted milk from the west room and even brewed a bowl for Wang An, but Wang An didn't touch it and gave it all to his sister-in-law!

Watching his sister-in-law drinking the malted milk happily, small sip by small sip, and even holding the bowl and insisting that her parents, eldest sister, and brother take a sip!

Wang An felt bitter in his heart and smiled as he stroked his sister-in-law's head, which was full of withered yellow hair!

In the outer room, Mu Xueli had already started performing the pig-butchering method with excitement.

Don't say, this kid really had a talent for being a butcher! He butchered the pork with a sense of artistry!

The pig, frozen solid and not yet fully thawed, turned into small pieces of pork and bones under his knife; he didn't need an axe at all, and he found the bone joints and pried them open directly with the knife!

Mainly, the speed was especially fast, and when butchering the pig head, in a few strokes, the pig head came off! Awesome, truly awesome!

Anyway, Wang An couldn't do it; Wang An always used a big axe, especially when butchering the pig head, with a life-risking posture, swinging the axe until it almost flew off!

But it didn't delay eating pork! On this point, no one could say anything!

At noon, his mother-in-law made a table of 8 good dishes.

Stewed big bones, soybean paste braised ribs, pork belly stewed with sauerkraut, stir-fried tenderloin, dried chili stir-fried pork intestines, pig-killing dish, and vegetables with dipping sauce.

There was also pheasant and rabbit stewed with dried mushrooms; the portion was a bit small, probably his mother-in-law stewed a small portion of the pheasant and hare he brought.

It's just that there was no wine. Wang An liked to drink in his past life and didn't plan to quit in this life, but the conditions didn't allow it!

During the meal, Mu Xueli mentioned again that he wanted to roam the mountains with Wang An, but Wang An had the lesson of Li Biao and really didn't want to agree!

Mu Xueli said with a grin: "Brother-in-law, how was my pig-butchering technique today?"

Wang An nodded: "Hmm, seriously quite good!"

Mu Xueli said: "Then brother-in-law, look, I'm idle every day, just let me go into the mountains with you! I can do odd jobs, and I'm seriously capable!"

Wang An didn't speak for a long time. This is the thing: once bitten by a snake, you're afraid of a rope for ten years! Because Li Biao almost killed Wang An!

Seeing Wang An seemed hesitant, his father-in-law spoke: "Son-in-law, don't worry about my and your mother's opinion. After you left that day, Xueli told us, and we all agreed!"

Wang An thought to himself, this is not about whether you agree or not! It's that I'm afraid of being scammed! I'm afraid of being scammed! I was almost damn killed!

If this brother-in-law scams his brother-in-law again, wouldn't that be even worse!

Before Wang An could think of the wording, Mu Xueqing spoke: "Xiao An, why don't you take Xueli to roam the mountains? It can also make life at home better!"

Fine, the wife has spoken, so it wouldn't be appropriate not to agree! Besides, life at his father-in-law's house was indeed too poor; giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching him how to fish!

Wang An nodded and agreed this time!

Mu Xueli knew clearly how difficult it was for a hunter to take someone into the mountains when he had nothing and knew nothing!

Seeing his brother-in-law nod and agree, he was so happy he almost jumped off the kang.

Wang An saw his brother-in-law was very excited and hurriedly suppressed him: "Xueli, you know what this mountain-roaming work is. Between brother-in-law and brother-in-law, I have to say the ugly words first!"

Seeing his brother-in-law nod, he continued: "You come into the mountains with me, you must listen to me in everything, and you must listen to me. Can you do that?"

Mu Xueli hurriedly nodded and said: "That's a must, you are the mountain-roaming leader, of course I have to listen to you!"

Wang An found that his brother-in-law seemed to know the rules of mountain-roaming well, nodded, then pointed to the pork on the table and briefly told him about the process of taking Li Biao into the mountains!

After finishing, he saw that except for his sister-in-law who didn't understand much and was lowering her head to eat meat, everyone was looking at him in shock.
