He handed the chicken to Sheng Hanjing. “Second Brother, kill the chicken.”
“Me?” Sheng Hanjing had been watching the show, but now he pointed at himself and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. “Kill the chicken?”
Kang Weizhen was walking over to pick some vegetables to wash them. When she heard this, she felt that she was making things too difficult for Hanjing. Her son had always been gentle and soft. When he was younger, he would take a detour even when he saw ants on the road. When he saw homeless puppies on the road, he wouldn’t even move his feet. Instead, he would bring the lost puppies to the police and ask them to find a home for the puppies. As a result, he was late for school many times.
Fortunately, he had good grades and good looks, so the teachers did not pursue the matter.
But killing a chicken… Haha, that would probably be very difficult for him.
Before Sheng Hanjing could take the chicken, his hands, which were skilled at playing the piano, started to tremble. However, before he could touch the chicken, Sheng Yang grabbed it before he could. Unlike Sheng Yuxi’s clumsy movements, she grabbed the chicken’s wings with practiced ease. “Let me do it.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised his hand and slashed down. Blood gushed, and the deed was done.
“…”
“…”
“!!!”
Three extremely shocked faces. They had no time to say anything.
The three of them remained silent for a long time. When it was time to eat, Sheng Hanjing’s thin lips were still trembling slightly. “Sister, weren’t you afraid?”
“Afraid of what?” Sheng Yang ate with a dazed expression.
Sometimes, when she went to the laboratory, she needed to dissect something. There were human skeletons in the laboratory as well.
Killing a chicken was child’s play.
However, Sheng Hanjing and Sheng Yuxi had never seen the things she did in the laboratory before, so they couldn’t imagine it.
After the meal, the family spread open a bamboo bed and bamboo chairs at the entrance of the house. They ate watermelon to cool down. They looked at the night sky and counted the stars. This was a life that did not exist in the city. Sheng Yuxi found it especially novel.
It was ten o’clock and Grandma Liu was a little tired, so she decided to return to her room. Sheng Yang and Sheng Hanjing supported her up the stairs.
Grandma Liu smiled and gestured. “I’m not so old that I can’t move.”
When they were in her room, Sheng Hanjing took out his violin. He was used to coaxing the elderly. “Grandma, since you’re Sheng Yang’s grandmother, then you’re also my grandmother. I’ll play the violin for you so that you can sleep better.”
Grandma Liu beamed with joy and nodded repeatedly.
Grandma Liu also felt happy that Yangyang could be in such a warm family.
This way, even if she left, there was nothing to worry about.
As she listened to the beautiful music, Grandma Liu felt extremely relaxed and soon fell asleep.
Sheng Hanjing gently put down the violin and walked out side by side with Sheng Yang. The two of them heard from the caretaker that Grandma Liu had been well recently but there was one problem. Perhaps it was because of her age, she couldn’t sleep much and it was difficult for her to fall asleep. However, today was different. Sheng Hanjing had just played one song and she had already fallen asleep. Her sleep wasn’t as shallow as usual either.
“Thank you, Second Brother,” Sheng Yang said sincerely.
“We’re family, what are you talking about?” Sheng Hanjing casually threw the million-dollar violin into the cabinet and freed up his hand to rub Sheng Yang’s head. “I wasn’t just saying that casually. Your grandmother is my grandmother.”
Sheng Yang smiled, revealing her beautiful white teeth.
Sheng Hanjing smiled at her.

The next day, Huang Xiangyu came again. However, this time, she did not come empty-handed. She did not bring along the measly stir-fried vegetables that her mother had perfunctorily given their family once before. She was carrying a tray filled with a few dishes. They were all good dishes. Her mother had personally made delicious prawns and some delicious cold dishes as well as braised food.
They were really going all out this time!
