The whole mountain is my hunting ground

When Zhao Jun returned to the West Room, he immediately noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

"What's going on?" Zhao Jun asked Zhao Chun with a smile, "You haven't seen my brother-in-law for a week, why aren't you happy?"

Zhao Chun glared at Zhou Jianjun fiercely and rarely answered his brother's words.

At this time, Zhao Jun sat sideways on the edge of the Kang, and then said to Zhou Jianjun: "Brother-in-law, the wild boar behind the house is for you."

"Ah?" Zhou Jianjun was stunned when he heard this, but Zhao Jun said: "It's the end of the year, look at where the incense should be burned, and let's burn incense."

"Um..." Zhou Jianjun hesitated a little, but he was more embarrassed. He had borrowed his brother-in-law Guang from his brother-in-law a lot this year, and the wild boars and roe deer he gave as gifts were all brought to him by Zhao Jun.

Zhao Chun on the side listened to Zhao Jun's words and looked at Zhou Jianjun with an increasingly unkind look. Zhao Chun still can't figure out why he, Zhou Jianjun, came here empty-handed.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Zhao Chun moved his legs apart and kicked Zhou Jianjun on the lower back.

"Ah ha!" This time it didn't hurt, but it shocked Zhou Jianjun suddenly.

Zhou Jianjun turned around and met Zhao Chun's sharp eyes, and did not dare to say a word for a while.

Zhao Jun smiled when he saw this, but did not laugh out loud. In his impression, the relationship between the eldest sister and the brother-in-law was quite good, and the couple would just talk and laugh about anything. Situations like this were rare.

Thinking and thinking, the smile on Zhao Jun's face froze. He suddenly remembered that on the day he returned to his hometown in despair in his previous life, his eldest sister made dumplings at home and his brother-in-law went out to buy soybean paste. During dinner in the evening, my brother-in-law scolded me. But the brother-in-law mostly hated the iron, saying that he lost such a good job and broke up such a good family.

When it was said that Zhao Jun was not angry, he was mostly filled with emotion and bitterness. But just when Zhou Jianjun wanted to say a few more words under the influence of alcohol, he was kicked by Zhao Chun.

Thinking of that scene, Zhao Jun hurriedly hugged Zhou Jianjun and said to Zhao Chun: "Sister, why are you doing anything?"

When Zhao Jun said this, Zhao Chun couldn't help but laugh. She glared at Zhou Jianjun sideways and curled her lips and said, "Look at him to make him angry."

Zhou Jianjun chuckled. He knew he was in the wrong and couldn't tell Zhao Jun why he was kicked.

"Brother-in-law, um... tomorrow we will go for a walk in the mountains. If we don't come back at noon, we will be early in the afternoon." Zhao Jun said to Zhou Jianjun: "When we come back, I will use Xiao Chen's car to take you home. That's it. The wild boar will be loaded on the car for you, as well as the wild boar and black blind man I shot the day before yesterday. Mom has left some meat for you, so you can load a lot of it."

After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Zhou Jianjun didn't know what to say. Even brothers are not so helpful. Besides, over the years, Zhou Jianjun has only seen his brother-in-law help his brother-in-law, but he has never seen his brother-in-law help his brother-in-law.

At this time, Zhao Chun kicked Zhou Jianjun on the lower back again, but this kick was lighter than the previous one.

Just listen to Zhao Chun say: "You should thank my brother for giving you food and gifts this day."

"What are you talking about, sister?" Zhao Jun stretched out his hand to pull away Zhao Chun's foot from kicking Zhou Jianjun, and said with a smile: "Aren't we a family?"

"That's right!" Zhou Jianjun followed the words, hugged Zhao Jun and said to Zhao Chun, "Isn't this my brother too."

After talking to Zhao Chun, Zhou Jianjun said to Zhao Jun: "Jun, it's up to you to see how my brother-in-law treats you in the future!"

Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this. He believed Zhou Jianjun's words.

At this time, Zhou Jianjun saw a smile on Zhao Chun's face, climbed up the pole and said: "Chun'er, our brother will drive tomorrow, will you come back with me?"

Upon hearing Zhou Jianjun say he was going home, Zhao Chun's face suddenly darkened and he said angrily: "I won't go back!"

"This..." Zhou Jianjun wanted to persuade her again, but Zhao Jun said: "Brother-in-law, let my sister stay at home for a few more days."

Zhao Jun heard from Wang Meilan this morning that Zhao Chun still wanted to stay at home for a few days. He said that Zhao Chun was worried that Ma Ling would come in in the future and that she would cause trouble to her younger siblings if she returned to her parents' home as an eldest aunt.

In this regard, Zhao Jun felt that Zhao Chun was overly worried. But the eldest sister wanted to stay at home, and he supported it with both hands.

"This..." After being rejected by Zhao Chun and persuaded by Zhao Jun, Zhou Jianjun knew that his wife would not be able to take him back tomorrow.

But when Zhou Jianjun thought of my mother's earnest hope and the fifty yuan this morning, he bit the bullet and said to Zhao Chun, "Chun'er..."

"Okay!" Zhao Chun didn't give him a chance to speak at all. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Come back next Sunday. When it's over..."

At the end of the sentence, Zhao Chun did not finish the whole sentence, but clenched his fist and gently punched Zhou Jianjun on the back.

This time Zhou Jianjun understood that his wife wanted him to behave well when he came next Sunday.

…

November 29, 1987, Sunday.

Zhao Baotou, who was going to go hunting in the mountains today, woke up early, put a pot of dog food in person, and then fed all the dogs in the two yards.

Zhao Youcai fed the dogs and got close to them to communicate with them, and he had quite a lot of dogs. After Zhao Youcai finished feeding the dogs, an hour passed.

When Zhao Youcai came back from outside, everyone in the family was up except for two little girls and a little boy.

Wang Meilan stewed a pot of frozen tofu and potatoes, with a curtain full of sticky bean buns on top.

When Zhao Youcai entered the house, he saw Wang Meilan placing sticky bean bags on the curtain. He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Where are you putting the sticky bean bags?"

"My mother gave it to me," Wang Meilan replied, seeing Zhao Youcai stunned, she winked at him.

"Ah..." Only then did Zhao Youcai realize that he now has two biological mothers, and the person Wang Meilan was talking about just now should be Ma Ling's mother.

"Yesterday I gave some meat to my in-laws." Wang Meilan said with a smile: "My mother had to give me half a bag of sticky bean buns."

"Okay!" Zhao Youcai nodded when he heard this and said, "This is just right to eat before going up the mountain to keep you hungry."

Wang Meilan looked at him and smiled, then put the lid on the pot and asked Zhao Youcai, "Can I make you a bowl of sugar water before you leave?"

As soon as Wang Meilan said this, Zhao Youcai suddenly recalled an unhappy past. He clicked his eyes and walked into the house, just in time to see Zhao Jun wandering underground with Xiao Zhouxuan in his arms.

"It will be very difficult for you to buy back that dog." What Zhao Youcai said shocked Zhao Jun. He hurriedly handed the child to Zhou Jianjun, and then walked out and said, "No, that little girl was so happy when she got home yesterday. ."

"It's not Niuniu." Zhao Youcai stopped Zhao Jun and said, "If you buy that green dog back, it won't even be able to eat anymore."

Zhao Jun frowned when he heard that. To the Northeastern people, whether it is a person or a domestic animal, if it cannot be eaten, it means that it is choked.

"Could it be that we just got home?" Zhao Chun asked from the side.

"It's not like that." Zhao Youcai curled his lips, shook his head slightly and said, "It's not that it doesn't eat, it also eats, but not much."

After hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Zhao Jun stopped and did not go out.

…

Frozen tofu stewed with potatoes.

Northeastern authentic braised soybean tofu is naturally frozen outdoors, and the original white soybean tofu turns golden yellow.

Each piece of frozen tofu has honeycomb holes on it. After being stewed in an iron pot over firewood, the tofu is filled with soup, and you get a burst of soup with every bite.

He put a bowl of vegetables and soup into the bowl, smashed the roasted peppers in the stove pit into the soup, and Zhao Youcai ate three large bowls in a row.

He also ate the staple food. When Zhao Youcai picked up the twelfth sticky bean bun, no one else was using chopsticks on the table.

"Then what..." Wang Meilan couldn't help but said: "Are you still eating?"

"Huh?" Zhao Youcai was startled, and then said angrily: "You won't let me eat this damn meal?"

"No, who can prevent you from eating it?" Wang Meilan said, "I'm afraid you will be injured."

Wang Meilan only ate three of these sticky bean buns, while Zhao Jun and Zhou Jianjun only ate six each.

"It's okay!" Zhao Youcai brought the sticky bean bun to his mouth and took a bite, then pulled open the rhubarb rice dough and took out the red bean filling inside.

"Haha..." Zhao Chun said with a smile: "My dad is such a good eater, even Jianjun and my brother can't eat him."

As soon as Zhao Chun finished speaking, several dogs barked outside the house, and Li Dayong and Li Baoyu, father and son, came over fully dressed.

Zhao Youcai quickly ate the twelfth sticky bean bun, pushed the bowl, took out the cigarettes and distributed them to Li Dayong and Zhou Jianjun.

While several people were smoking, Wang Qiang, Lin Xiangshun, and Jie Chen came together.

Today is a holiday at the forest farm, and everyone is just idle at home. We go up the mountain together not to make money, but just for fun.

When they saw them all coming, Zhao Youcai, Zhao Jun, and Zhou Jianjun hurriedly put on their leggings.

That's right, Zhou Jianjun also went for a walk today. Otherwise, he would have to wait until Zhao Jun came back before seeing him off, so he might as well follow him for a walk up the mountain.

In this way, there were eight people in the group, Zhao Jun, Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Wang Qiang, Lin Xiangshun, Zhou Jianjun, Li Baoyu, and Jie Chen. Among them, the Zhao family's father and son each carried a semi-automatic, Li Dayong carried Zhao Jun's No. 16 pipe, Wang Qiang carried his own gun, and the rest came from Zhao's house with knives and hand axes. out.

There were so many people dressed up for hiking, and the hunting dogs in the yard immediately broke into camp.

The hunting dogs howled and jumped one by one in front of the kennel. The three red dogs in the big kennel went crazy when they saw Wu Long and Er Hei across from them. They had never hunted before and couldn't help but feel confused and a little scared.

As for Hua Niuniu, this little bitch had never hunted before, but when she saw the male dogs getting excited, Hua Niuniu smelled the scent that excited her, and immediately jumped out of the kennel and stood facing the flower dragon.

Then, Hua Niuniu's tail was raised high, her butt was pointed up in the sky, her two front legs were leaning on the ground, and her two hind legs were kicking back against the soil.

Seeing Hua Niuniu like this, Hua Long, who had just joined the industry recently, immediately forgot about the excitement of hunting and couldn't help but approach Hua Niuniu.

But the next second, Hualong was grabbed by Zhao Jun.

After the iron chain around his neck was gone, Hualong jumped up to Hua Niuniu, stretched out his mouth and smelled Hua Niuniu's butt.

"Go!" Zhao Youcai raised his leg to push Hualong away. Hualong wanted to attack again, but was forced back by Zhao Youcai's kick.

"Woof! Woof!" Hualong was very dissatisfied.

"Ouch! Ouch!" Hua Niuniu was even more dissatisfied.

"Is this bitch going to pick up the seedlings?" Zhao Youcai tilted his head and glanced behind Hua Niuniu's butt. Before Zhao Jun could say anything, Zhao Youcai waved his hand and said, "When you get back, tie this bitch to Erhei! "

It should be said or not, Zhao Duotou is really good at Erhei.

"Dad, this dog..." Zhao Jun was about to dissuade him, but Zhao Youcai pulled him away with his hands.

After pushing Zhao Jun's hand away, Zhao Youcai raised his hand and pointed forward, saying to Zhao Jun: "Send the dog back to him as soon as possible tomorrow."

"Huh?" Zhao Jun followed what Zhao Youcai expected and saw the green tiger standing in front of the kennel. It looked at the noisy yard quietly, howling and jumping up in the yard after being unchained, and anxious to go up the mountain. The green dragon and black dragon who were hunting around looked at the busy people in the yard.

"This dog is finished!" Zhao Youcai said: "Seeing people going up the mountain, it is not excited at all. What kind of work is left?"

After hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Zhao Jun clicked his eyes and remained silent.

Zhao Youcai is right. If a hunting dog is not excited about hunting, can it still be called a hunting dog?

"Bang!" When Zhao Jun was silent, Zhao Youcai hit Zhao Jun on the shoulder and said, "This dog is finished. It's an old dog. It took so much effort to drag it out. How many days can it still work? Do you want me?" He said, please send it back to someone as soon as possible, and return the 100 yuan to your mother when you are done."

While Zhao Youcai was talking to Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu and others had already loaded all the hunting dogs that were going to fight into the car.

Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai also walked out. When the father and son walked to the warehouse, they heard the roar of a black tiger coming from inside.

Dog owners can tell the dog's mood and state from its barking. At this time, the black tiger's barking is full of eagerness and desire.

Today's black tiger can be regarded as a qualified hunting dog. Since the battle with the Siberian tiger, the black tiger has not gone up the mountain. Although Zhao Jun caught the prey and gave it meat the next day, and even gave it ginseng and chicken soup to drink every day, the hunting dogs could not be contained. They yearned for the mountains and were eager to hunt and fight.

If they are not allowed to go up the mountain for a long time, they will become aggrieved and scream in the direction of the mountain. This is called mountain wailing in the siege industry.

"Take a look!" Zhao Youcai turned around and pulled Zhao Jun again and said, "Those like Huzi know how to go up the mountain."

After hearing his words, Zhao Jun suddenly turned his head and looked at Qinghuo.

At this time, the old dog was still standing quietly in front of the kennel, his fur all over his body was loose, and his whole body was really lifeless.

Zhao Jun suddenly couldn't figure it out. It was understandable that the dog was so thin. Even if the dog came back to life, it was understandable. After all, it had not been hunting in the mountains for more than half a year, almost a year. It would lose weight if it had no meat to eat, and it would come back to life if it saw less battles.

But how did this dog get here?

The big-headed dog in the past would never be willing to die in a kennel. The more powerful a dog is, the more temper it has, and it is impossible for it to stop wailing.

But this dog usually doesn't bark.

The dog barked twice since Zhao Jun saw it.

Zhao Jun did not go out with Zhao Youcai, but walked quickly to Qinghuo himself.

As he approached, Zhao Jun met Qinghuo's bright, black eyes.

From those eyes, Zhao Jun saw a special emotional color that Zhao Jun could not describe. But he has always believed that all things have spirits, and dogs are the most understanding of human nature.

"Tiger!" Zhao Junping stretched out his hand to hold the green tiger's chin, bent his fingertips back, gently scratched the green tiger's chin, and asked, "Follow me up the mountain?"

As soon as Zhao Jun said this, the old dog understood it instantly.

The green tiger lowered its head and arched its nose into Zhao Jun's hand. As it turned its head, its body rose up and a pair of front paws rested on Zhao Jun's body.

There was still no sound coming out of the old dog's mouth.

But at this time, Zhao Jun vaguely guessed the reason. He hugged the green tiger, touched its back and said, "If you go out with me, you can't get lost!"

When Zhao Jun said this, the green tiger's drooping tail stood up and swayed rapidly.

At this time, the sound of a car horn was heard outside the door. Zhao Jun untied the iron chain around Qinghuo's neck. When Qinghuo landed, he suddenly swayed and his loose fur shook.

"Let's go!" Following Zhao Jun's order, Qinghuo followed Zhao Jun and walked out of the courtyard.

When a person and a dog came out of the yard, Zhao Youcai, who was sitting in the passenger seat, opened the car door, pointed at Zhao Jun and said, "Why the hell did you lead it out? As soon as this dog got home, you led it up the mountain and ran away. How do you fix it if it’s lost?”

I took leave the day before yesterday and I owe a chapter. I will continue writing, but it will have to be a little later, probably around two or three o'clock. Brothers, if you are sleepy, go to bed first and see you again tomorrow morning
