I’ll Butcher Pigs to Support You! 39p2

Chapter 39 p2

Country folk were poor. To them, a family that ate meat every day was already wealthy. Now that the New Year had just passed, they had just had a taste of meat. Seeing this now, they were just hoping to get a bargain. Seeing that the price wasn’t much cheaper, and buying it would cost them several days’ worth of food, they all left.

The corners of Song Yugui’s mouth twitched. She pushed the small cart home again.

Just as she reached her gate, she saw two women, each carrying a basket, walking over from a distance. One had a cold expression, the other was full of spirit.

She heard a not-so-clear woman’s voice say, “I feel like cutting pig feed is so interesting. Can you take me to cut it again tomorrow?”

It was clearly the female lead.

And next to the female lead, her wife’s mouth didn’t move at all, silent.

It wasn’t until she reached her gate and saw her that her originally cold and clear eyes instantly filled with grievance.

Song Yugui was about to smile and say, “I’m back,” to her wife, but seeing this, she frowned. “Xizhi.”

She called out, but the slender girl only glared at her with her large, watery eyes, then hesitantly, hesitantly walked up to her, her expression even more wronged, her small mouth pouting.

Song Yugui didn’t know what had happened. She only saw her wife walking with the female lead she had just said she didn’t like yesterday, looking so sad and angry. Could it be that the female lead had bullied her?

Although with the female lead’s personality in the novel, she wouldn’t take the initiative to bully people, but on the contrary, she was very friendly to people. But in the novel, my wife was still a murderous villain.

But after actually transmigrating and experiencing it?

She was clearly a soft bunny candy, letting people bully and knead her, rarely resisting. This kind of personality was far from the description in the novel, so it was clear that the novel could not be trusted.

If the female lead bullied her…

Hmph, even the female lead can’t bully her!

Song Yugui’s face turned slightly cold.

“What’s wrong? You were at home alone today. Were you bullied?”

It had never been like this before. It was only this time that the female lead had moved in that it was like this. It was hard for her not to be suspicious.

Chi Xiangyue was quite surprised. This ice-cold beauty I’ve been with all day, how come the moment she sees her family, she looks as if she’s suffered a great grievance? Weren’t we having a great time?

Shen Xizhi was wronged, but she couldn’t say it in front of others, so she just pressed her lips together and leaned against Song Yugui’s embrace, her long lashes lowered, covering her watery eyes.

It instantly made one’s heart soften.

Song Yugui couldn’t help but think, Which bastard bullied my wife?

She cursed her father in her heart, but her face was calm. She reached out and took the full basket of pig feed from Shen Xizhi’s back.

Seeing this, Chi Xiangyue quickly took the one on her own back as well. “There’s more, there’s more. This is yours too. This is what I cut. I went with her to cut it.”

She emphasized.

The corners of Song Yugui’s mouth twitched again. So the female lead even went up the mountain to cut pig feed for their family.

“Thank you, Miss Chi.”

Chi Xiangyue waved her hand. “What’s there to thank me for? Just let her take me with her next time she goes to cut pig feed.”

Song Yugui: …

Damn it, I’m being pestered.

“Miss Chi must be joking. How can we let you do our work for us?”

She gently held the woman who was exceptionally clingy today and refused to leave her embrace.

She patted her reassuringly.

Shen Xizhi pressed her lips together and kept nuzzling her embrace.

Chi Xiangyue was dumbfounded. This beauty has two faces. She wasn’t like this when she was with me.

Wasn’t she cold and taciturn by nature?

She might be taciturn, but this cold nature…

Chi Xiangyue was stunned.

It took her a long moment to realize that the other was talking to her. She quickly shook her head. “It’s alright, it’s alright. I’ve never done these things before, so I just wanted to try it myself. Look at what I cut. It’s neat, isn’t it?”

She lifted her own basket again and showed it to Song Yugui, her face full of pride.

At least she had helped her family cut it. Out of courtesy, she said thank you again and looked down at her frail, wronged wife.

Her small face was wrinkled up, as if she only wanted to talk to her and not see anyone else.

“Shall we go in and talk?”

“Mmm, mmm. I’m tired.”

She didn’t even glance at the female lead and just nodded.

Song Yugui was certain in her heart. Her sudden change is indeed related to the female lead. Thank god, I thought it was because of me.

“Miss Chi, my wife is not feeling well, so I’ll take her back first.”

She even said it very politely.

Chi Xiangyue was stunned again, almost suspecting that she had heard wrong.

What did she say?

Shouldn’t they be… sisters?

What did she mean, ‘wife’?

Does a sister call her own sister ‘wife’?

Song Yugui half-held Shen Xizhi and carried her into the courtyard.

Shen Xizhi could actually walk, but she just wanted to cling to her wife, so she deliberately stayed in her arms and refused to leave.

The pork was just covered with a cloth and left outside for now. Coaxing her wife was more important.

Song Yugui pressed her down on the bed and squatted in front of her, her brow slightly furrowed, her expression quite serious.

“Why are you so wronged the moment you get back? Did Chi Xiangyue bully you?”

It wasn’t that she was overthinking it, because it looked like…

Shen Xizhi bit her lip, nodded, then shook her head, and said sullenly, “She kept pestering me today… I wanted to go and cut pig feed alone, but she insisted on going with me and kept talking to me.”

Song Yugui: …

So it was just that.

It seems that my villain really hates the female lead. Just talking to her makes her so angry and wronged.

Song Yugui hadn’t even thought about the current situation in her heart when she was suddenly hit on the shoulder by Shen Xizhi. It wasn’t heavy, like a cat’s scratch, but she still looked up in a daze and saw her wife’s eyes red with anger. “It’s all your fault! You clearly, clearly promised me last night, QAQ.”

Song Yugui: …

Sure enough, a person can’t be happy too soon. The fire has finally burned to me.

“I got up early in the morning. I didn’t have time to call you.”

Song Yugui was guilty, her brown eyes darting around. Shen Xizhi’s large, watery eyes stared at her.

“If… if you hadn’t lied to me and left secretly without me, she wouldn’t have been able to pester me all day! Anyway, it’s all your fault!”

The young woman sat on the bed and stomped her foot in anger.

Song Yugui was in a difficult position. “But it was really too early. I was afraid you wouldn’t get enough sleep and would be very tired.”

“You’re not tired. What’s there for me to be tired about?”

Shen Xizhi pouted and turned her head away in anger, not looking at her.

Song Yugui had no choice but to coax her. “Your body is weak. I can’t bear to see you work so hard.”

The person opposite her had watery eyes and didn’t accept her explanation at all. She sniffled her slightly red nose. “You clearly think I’m a bother and don’t want to take me!”

How could she admit to that? She immediately refuted, “Nonsense! How could I think you’re a bother? I could think anyone is a bother, but not you! Alright, alright, don’t be angry. I specially bought you some pastries. Why don’t you try them, okay?”

The pastries had been bought specifically to coax her, as she had guessed she would be angry.

Song Yugui took out the pastries from her robes. She had carefully protected them all the way, and they were still warm.

Shen Xizhi’s mood only improved a little when she saw the pastries.

But she was still very unhappy.

“I don’t want to eat pastries. I want to go to town with you. I don’t want to be left behind alone…”

She didn’t like to be alone.

In the past, when Song Yugui wasn’t like this, she would have wished she could be alone, wished that Song Yugui wasn’t around. But now…

Song Yugui had already changed. She had become the best person to her in the world, so she wanted to be with her.

She was actually very afraid of being lonely, very afraid of being alone.

She just liked to cling to her.

Song Yugui is a big idiot. She won’t even satisfy this small request, always thinking she’s doing what’s best for her, never asking her what she wants.

Bad person.

“You… why don’t you eat some pastries first? They’re very delicious. Didn’t you say you liked that water chestnut cake last time? I bought it for you again. Why don’t you try it and see if it’s delicious? If you like it, I’ll buy it for you often in the future, okay?”

Shen Xizhi glared at her. Am I that easy to coax?

“I want to go to town with you tomorrow.”

She said with a cold face, stating her request.

After she spoke, her eyes looked at Song Yugui with a cold and quiet expression, as if to say, If you dare to say no, just you try.

Song Yugui was choked for a moment, and finally had to raise both hands in surrender. “Alright, alright. I’ll definitely take you tomorrow, definitely, okay?”

She promised again and again.

Shen Xizhi’s expression finally improved a little, but she was still very unhappy, her voice cold. “If you hadn’t lied to me, I wouldn’t have been pestered today. It’s one thing for you to like her, but I don’t like her.”

The young woman turned her head again, leaving Song Yugui with only a clear, beautiful jawline and a head full of confusion. “When did I ever like her? You can’t just spread rumors when you’re angry, can you?”

Shen Xizhi’s eyes were cold.

Song Yugui: …

“If you don’t eat these pastries, I’ll take them and give them to Auntie Li.”

As she spoke, she was about to take the pastries back. Shen Xizhi quickly hid them behind her back. This time, she finally looked at her properly, still angry. “You want to take back something you’ve already given away? Song Yugui, are you that petty?”

“Who told you to be angry with me all the time and even spread rumors about me? What do I like about Miss Chi? I just looked at her for a little while yesterday, and you’re still holding a grudge. Your heart is as small as a needle’s eye.”

Shen Xizhi bit her lip, not reacting to her words of complaint. Her small face was as cold as frost. Song Yugui couldn’t help but reach out and rub her cheek, rubbing it until she could no longer maintain her cold expression. She could only lower her head, her dark hair hiding the expression on her face. “I haven’t seen you all day. Can’t I be angry for a little while?”

I’m not that angry, just saying a few words. Is that not allowed either?

When she was angry, she liked to talk nonsense. Song Yugui was also used to it. She rubbed her tender face for a long while, sat down with her, and then put her arm around her shoulders, ignoring her struggles to pull her into her embrace.

She chuckled helplessly. “Alright, alright. Then you can remember to forgive me after you’re done being angry.”

Shen Xizhi lowered her eyes and didn’t speak. Of course she would forgive her. If she didn’t forgive her, what else could she do? She couldn’t let go anyway.

It wasn’t a big deal. A little fuss was enough. It wouldn’t be good if she fussed too much and made her lose her pity.

Shen Xizhi seemed to have been forced to lean against her after her struggles were ineffective. She only muttered, “The pastries you bought for me, you’re not allowed to give them to anyone else.”

Her own wife was so delicate and soft. Although she often threw tantrums, she was generally very obedient and endearing.

Seeing that she was no longer making a fuss, Song Yugui’s tone also softened. “They were originally bought for you. If you like them, I’ll buy them for you again tomorrow.”

She stroked her head.
