Song Tan’s Chronicle

Chapter 209: 208. The sixth pig

Views:

When Song Tan asked this, everyone reacted -

"Yeah, how many pigs did you say?"

Among them, Song Sancheng's butt was about to leave the stool. At this moment, he couldn't help but turn his head and look towards the invisible back mountain.

Zhao Fangyuan was stunned for a moment: "Six, I counted correctly, three black and three white!"

"How is that possible!"

Song Sancheng felt that his memory was insulted: "It's clearly two black and three white!"

This piglet was very precious when it was bought. Wulan kept talking about it for several nights before going to sleep. In addition, at the beginning, he carried the pig feed bucket to feed it every day. Song Sancheng knew which one was the strongest and which one was a little weak. But in the past half month...

He finally couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and said, "I'll go to the back mountain to take a look."

Because he finally realized that Qiao Qiao had been in charge of the back mountain for the past half month.

Thinking of this, Song Sancheng was a little puzzled: "Didn't any of you go to the back mountain to check for the past half month? Did you really let Qiao Qiao be in charge of the mountain?"

People say: Even if you have millions of dollars in wealth, the hairy stuff doesn’t count.

This shows the meticulousness and caution of the breeding industry.

But their family was so busy that no one noticed that Qiao Qiao had actually been taking care of the back mountain for half a month and nothing happened.

—If one more pig is no big deal.

After thinking about it, he had been to the back mountain, but the focus was definitely not on the pigs and chickens. At most, he would just take a stroll around the beehives.

At this moment, the silent grandfather Song Youde was also thinking hard:

"I remember that I wanted to go there in the morning and evening, and Qiao Qiao always said that it was fine, fine... and interrupted me and called me. Now that I think about it, Qiao Qiao has been feeding me a lot recently."

If we feed pigs the same food five times a day, wouldn’t that mean we have too many pigs

Now, everyone couldn't sit still anymore and hurried to the back mountain.

In the small classroom nearby, Qiao Qiao moved her butt uneasily and whispered, "Teacher Xin, I heard them talking about pigs. I raise pigs. Can I go and take a look?"

"No." Xin Jun usually seems to have a good temper, but once he enters the classroom, he is still very intimidating.

His expression was serious now: “Pay attention in class.”

Qiao Qiao is still a little afraid of the legendary teacher.

He nodded obediently and continued to stare at the textbook.

He was so well-behaved that Xin Jun softened her heart. She looked at the time and added, "The get out of class will be over in ten minutes."

Qiao Qiao's eyes lit up!

At this moment, everyone had already arrived at the back mountain, including Zhao Fangyuan, who was anxious to join in the fun.

They bypassed beehives and bushes and finally came to a free-range pigpen and chicken coop surrounded by fences deep in the back hills.

The two sheds are very close to each other. The chicks have shed their yellow fluff and gradually grown mottled feathers. They look much worse than when they were little.

But no one would mind thinking that they would be able to lay eggs in a few months.

At this moment, this group of medium-sized chicks were slithering all over the mountains and fields, digging and scratching the ground with their sharp claws, pecking at food with their heads down, eating stones, insects, and even ants, looking for everything they could eat.

In the pigpen, when the piglets heard someone coming, they immediately gathered around with loud and vigorous grunts, some even lying on the fence above the pig feeding bowl unwillingly.

this…

Everyone was speechless.

Zhao Fangyuan was right, there were indeed six pigs, three white and three black.

The black one was a little hairy and rough, much smaller and thinner, but full of energy, grunting and groaning along with the other pigs, as if it had long been accustomed to being raised by people.

but…

“This is a wild boar!”

Song Sancheng's eyes widened: "Where did the wild boar come from?"

How could Song Tan know!

As far as she could remember, she had never seen a wild boar in the village.

Song Youde looked around and asked, "Is it possible that the fence on the mountain was broken and the wild boar got in?"

"impossible."

Song Tan denied it outright: "Your Majesty, you are guarding here every day, and you are doing a great job. How is it possible that the net is broken and there is no movement?"

However, Song Youde pointed at the little black pig with his pipe:

"Then tell me how it came about?"

Song Tan: …

It's not responsible for raising pigs, why ask her! This matter... This matter has to be handled by Qiao Qiao.

Oh, this kid!

The arrival of wild boars is never a bad thing, and Song Tan felt happy about it.

However, although Song Tan expressed his trust in the king, Song Youde and Song Sancheng still quickly walked around the fence on the mountain and indeed found no damaged or loose areas.

This is strange, this little wild boar couldn’t have fallen from the sky, right

Besides, the mountain behind is not very big. Although there have been no wild boars here in previous years, the piglets are here. Will the wild boars rush over one day to attack us

Oh my, although killing wild boars is allowed nowadays, they are unarmed, what can we use to kill them

Song Sancheng and Song Youde looked at each other, and both father and son were a little worried.

At this time, Qiao Qiao also rushed over panting.

"Sister, please don't chase my pig away."

He was about to cry tears of grievance.

"He's small and doesn't eat much, so just add two more meals a day."

Song Tan couldn't help but feel distressed: "My dear, do you know where these pigs you raise will go in the future?"

If it's true love, you might as well get rid of it now.

But that's impossible. She is not a fairy. She is just an ordinary person. How could she refuse the pork that was delivered to her door

Even though this little piglet is a wild boar and grows slowly, it should be able to weigh more than 100 kilograms by the end of the year, right

Wow, it sounds like he’s an insider.

For example, although Qiao Qiao can’t recognize all the characters, she has never made a mistake in counting.

Song Sancheng quickly asked, "Where did this pig come from?"

Qiao Qiao closed her mouth and stopped talking.

When Song Tan saw this, he realized that it was not just that he didn't know, it was obvious that he didn't want to say it!

She had no choice but to promise: "Don't worry, we will raise this pig as usual and feed it more food. Can you tell me where it came from first?"

Qiao Qiao has always trusted her sister unconditionally.

After all, his mother had coaxed him into giving him pocket money before, but she eventually forgot about it.

But my sister said that she paid him a salary and showed him the account book every day, and there was never a day short of money!

Although he still hasn't received the money...

Anyway, this time Qiao Qiao answered very straightforwardly:

"The king brought it."

"How did you bring it?"

Qiao Qiao pointed at the one-meter-high fence and said, "I was playing with Dabai here, and Dawang went to the mountain. When he came back, he held the piglet in his mouth, and then he jumped over in a flash."

He gestured and spoke it out.

At this point, Qiao Qiao still felt a little aggrieved: "I thought it was the king's baby."
