Chapter 73: Chapter 73 If You Can’t Finish, Feed It to Pigs
Chapter 73 -73 If You Can’t Finish, Feed It to Pigs
Ye Xiu was no fool; she knew exactly what her two sons were like. It was clear that Bai Ye was just following Bai Yu’s lead.
Bai Yu didn’t say anything, but Ye Xiu knew he had taken it in, and that was enough.
Ye Xiu’s change was too abrupt, leaving them somewhat bewildered and unsure of what exactly had happened.
She was already about to leave, and this time, Ye Xiu was more determined than she had ever been before.
Bai Da wanted to say something, but he feared that speaking might only make Ye Xiu despise him more. For a moment, he simply didn’t know what to say.
Bai Da’s silence not only hurt the group pet but also chilled Ye Xiu’s heart.
This man, he was always like this. When unsure of what to do, he’d choose silence. Even now, he didn’t consider where he might have gone wrong. Forget it, she had little desire to see them, anyway.
“Your salary, bring it to me when it’s issued. I won’t come back before the end of the month.”
She needed some peace, true peace.
“I’ll take you.”
Bai Da immediately spoke up, but Ye Xiu refused, her face darkening.
“If you have the time to take me, then tend to the house. What about the vegetable and corn fields? Have you forgotten? It’ll be time soon to harvest the corn, won’t it?”
Ye Xiu truly couldn’t fathom how Bai Da had managed before so as not to let Xingxing…
Ye Xiu stared in disbelief at Bai Da.
“No, no. It was Dad who helped me bring it back before.”
Bai Da quickly clarified, not wanting to be misunderstood by Xiuxiu again.
“This year, you’ll handle it yourself, Dad has his own fields. It’s already wrong we couldn’t look after him, how could we let him take care of you? I’m leaving.”
Ye Xiu sighed; what was she to do with Bai Da?
Even though Ye Xiu had told him not to see her off, Bai Da still followed her to the village entrance.
Midway, Ye Xiu on her bicycle saw Bai Dan coming back on his own bike, and Bai Zhi, who was laughing happily behind him.
Grandfather and granddaughter were chatting about something, both beaming—it was good to see. As long as Xingxing was happy, that was enough.
[Xingxing, seeing your smile makes Mommy so happy. Hopefully, you can keep smiling like this forever. Mommy hasn’t seen your despair, you must be very disappointed.]
Ye Xiu watched for a long, long time, until she couldn’t see them anymore, and only then did she keep going.
After his return, Bai Da saw the group pet crying bitterly, and although his heart ached for her, he himself wasn’t feeling any better. He was panicking; if things went on like this, Xiuxiu would surely leave him.
He couldn’t let Xiuxiu down, what did she tell him to do? Oh, the housework.
“Bai Ye, Bai Yu, go and wash the clothes now. With so many clothes, are you planning to wait until next year? Hurry up and take them down to the river.”
Indeed, although the house had plumbing, the water flow was weak, and it was common to wash clothes at the river.
There was no detergent, only soap, and they would rub the clothes by hand and then beat them with a stick.
Bai Ye instinctively started to say that Bai Zhi could do it, then he remembered that Bai Zhi hadn’t been at home for a while now. Each carrying a basin, the two of them limped their way to the river.
The group pet was still shedding tears, feeling miserable and wronged. She truly wanted her sister to come back, she wanted to apologize, and she wanted to leave seriously, but her mother had misunderstood her.
She didn’t want to cry, but the tears kept flowing. Bai Da sighed; he couldn’t bear it.
“Xixi, Mommy wasn’t talking about you; it’s just that Daddy made her angry, and she misunderstood. Please don’t cry.”
“Daddy, does Mommy not love me anymore?”
The group pet was afraid, scared of returning to the past when she was bullied, scolded, and had no food without the protection of her parents.
“Not at all, Mommy is just very angry and feels sorry for your sister. If we change, she will forgive us.”
He said this, but he didn’t even know where to start with the changes.
“Mhm, mhm, as long as you don’t abandon me, I will try my best. I’ll learn to cook; I’m going to the kitchen now.”
The group pet wiped her tears and went to the kitchen. Not long after, she shouted aloud.
Bai Da hurried over; the group pet had cut her hand.
…
Today’s business had been very good, Bai Zhi and Bai Dan were both very happy, so Bai Dan went to buy Bai Zhi’s favorite food, the fatty intestines.
Okay, it wasn’t specifically for that, it was just that when he went to buy meat and saw the fatty intestines, he bought them, and they even threw in a big bone.
The meat, sold out…
However, the original owner liked it, and coincidentally Bai Zhi did too.
Passing by their own cornfield, Bai Zhi’s eyes sparkled.
“Grandpa, stop, stop.”
Hearing his granddaughter’s voice, Bai Dan didn’t hesitate to stop.
“What’s wrong with Xingxing?”
Bai Dan saw his granddaughter’s gaze toward their cornfield; she must be craving corn.
“Do you want to eat corn? I’ll go find you some tender ones.”
Without another word, Bai Dan hopped down and was ready to head into the field.
“Grandpa, get some ripe ones too, I want all of them.”
Corn is a wonderful thing, whether tender or ripe, it can be turned into many delicious dishes.
Speaking of which, she felt a bit nostalgic. As a child, there would be people who came to the village with a carry-on stove, add in corn and rice, take some of their own corn cobs.
They could pop popcorn, but she preferred corn buns. Roasted corn was tasty, too; yes, she’d make buns in the afternoon. They could still be taken up the mountain tomorrow to eat.
Bai Zhi was still pondering how to eat them when Bai Dan had already come back with a big pile of corn, all husked.
Bai Zhi stared, somewhat dazed.
“Actually, Grandpa doesn’t need that much.”
She estimated that there were at least twenty bundles.
“No worries, we have plenty at home, and if we can’t finish, we’ll feed the pigs.”
Bai Dan laughed, unconcerned.
But, but that phrase, why did it sound a bit off?
She’s not a pig, thank you very much.
“Grandpa, let’s go back.”
However, at times like this, it was best to keep silent.
“Okay, let’s go.”
Bai Dan loaded the corn onto the tricycle and took Bai Zhi home.
The fatty intestines were delicious, but likewise, dealing with that particular flavor was a big challenge.
It was difficult for others, but for Bai Dan it was just a piece of cake.
He used to buy them frequently because his old lady also liked them. Once cooked, Xingxing and the old lady would share bite after bite, polishing it off.
So, he had experience.
Holding the fatty intestines and also the cornmeal, Bai Dan was ready to head to the riverbank.
“Xingxing, play at home, I’ll go clean the fatty intestines.”
These intestines, they must be rubbed and cleaned with cornmeal alone to remove that specific taste, and the heart and lungs that came with them needed to be dealt with as well.
“Okay, Grandpa, be careful.”
Bai Zhi nodded. This time, they had also brought back two big bags of potatoes, how could they make Braised Pork Intestines without potatoes?

But there was no hurry now, Bai Zhi first prepared to cook the big bone broth, which would be needed later.
