Chapter 488: Killing the Pretender
The Xu family house was filled with applause and cheers. Grandpa Zhou felt inspired in an instant, smiling broadly. After so many years, he finally experienced that old feeling once again.
Xu Ying and Huo Chen also liked the names of the two children very much, and no one had any objections. They simply decided on the names: Zhou Zhiyi and Huo Zhinan.
Eldest Sister-in-law Xu didn’t dare stay in the house for long. She turned around and, together with Second Sister-in-law Xu, went to the kitchen to cook.
Today at noon, there were many people at home. The Zhou Family added up to almost twenty people and there was plenty of food to prepare.
Xu, Second Brother Xu, and Third Brother Xu were also busy. One went to the vegetable greenhouse to pick vegetables, another ran to the pond behind to fish, and another went to the breeding ground on the back hill, where he caught two large roosters and two large ducks, and then cut several tens of pounds of pork at the breeding farm before heading home.
Nowadays, the pork, ducks, and chickens from the back hill had a partnership with a food factory.
The factory in the village even used the stocks from the breeding grounds in Xujia Village first.
After returning home, Third Brother Xu directly placed the meat in the courtyard. Old Hui, upon seeing the meat, was delighted, wagging his tail at Third Brother Xu like a dog.
Third Brother Xu saw Old Hui’s behavior and couldn’t help but laugh, patting Old Hui on the head: "You’ll eat after a while."
Third Aunt Zhou saw this scene and scoffed, thinking that Third Brother Xu talking to a dog was absurd, as if he were a fool; dogs can’t understand human speech.
Little did she know that, the next second, when Old Hui heard what Third Brother Xu said, he became even happier. He nudged Third Brother Xu’s head with his own and ran to lie down in front of Granny Huo.
