The whole mountain is my hunting ground

As soon as Zhao Youcai asked Zhao Jun to deliver fish to the Zhou family, Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan, and Zhao Chun all looked at him.

"What are you giving me?" Wang Meilan glanced at Zhao Chun quickly, then turned to Zhao Youcai, and lowered her voice and said, "I'll wait for you!"

Zhao Chun, on the other hand, rolled his eyes at Zhao Youcai and said angrily: "Dad, are you chasing me away?"

After saying this, Zhao Chun didn't wait for Zhao Youcai's reaction. He pointed to Zhao Jun and said, "Brother, get up and drive. Send him back to us now."

"Sister!" Zhao Jun grabbed Zhao Chun who was about to go to the ground and said, "Why are you going back? Why don't you make me a quilt tomorrow? You didn't even make the quilt for your brother's wedding."

At this time, Wang Meilan saw that Zhao Chun's eyes were a little red, she stretched out her crossed legs, kicked Zhao Youcai twice, and shouted in a low voice: "You little tiger calf, go to that room!"

"No, no." Zhao Youcai also knew that he was cheating, so he hurriedly went back and added: "Can I get rid of my daughter? I thought that the fish were alive, so I asked my son to take two to my mother-in-law, and then tell my mother-in-law, Our eldest daughter won’t go back now.”

Hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan, and Zhao Chun turned their attention to Zhao Youcai again.

After drinking in the evening, Zhao Youcai's face turned red. He squinted his eyes and smiled at Zhao Chun, saying, "My eldest daughter, let's stay at home. Dad hasn't had enough time with you yet?"

When Zhao Chun heard this, he rolled his eyes at Zhao Youcai again. No one is stupid, so it would be strange to believe him.

Suddenly, Zhao Chun remembered something and immediately smiled at Zhao Youcai and asked: "Hey? Dad, how much did you sell the three pigs you caught today for?"

Zhao Youcai was startled, and then he realized that he had offended his eldest daughter again.

"Oh." As soon as Zhao Chun finished speaking, Wang Meilan tilted her head and said, "That's a lot of money?"

As she said that, Wang Meilan stretched out three fingers and said: "Three pigs, one pig is calculated as five hundred catties, three to five thousand and five cents, one catty of meat is five to six cents... Oh my god, seven to eight hundred cents."

Zhao Youcai: "..."

"What kind of pig?" Zhao Youcai smiled bitterly and said, "A pig is worth five hundred catties. Lan Na, who do you think you are?"

Wang Meilan glanced at Zhao Youcai with a smile and said, "You are such a big guy and can catch five hundred kilograms of pigs. Why don't you pinch it with your hands?"

"I..." After hearing this, Zhao couldn't move his head.

"Then what..." Wang Meilan raised her head slightly, her chin pointed slightly, and Zhao Youcai said: "There have been many guests at home recently, and the money has been quite expensive. Why don't you support me?"

"I still have the money to buy ginseng." Zhao Chun whispered quietly and said, "I still have to refund forty."

Zhao Youcai: "..."

Seeing the three women looking at him with smiles, as if they were staring at lambs to be slaughtered, Zhao Youcai laughed secretly in his heart and thought: "Do you still think I am the Zhao Youcai from before?"

Thinking of this, Zhao Youcai put his hand into the inner pocket of his cotton-padded jacket, took out a wad of money, and unfolded it into twenty large coins in his hand.

Seeing the money, even Zhao Hong and Zhao Na came over holding the dolls.

"Dad!" Zhao Hong grabbed Zhao Youcai's arm and said, "Buy schoolbags for us two!"

"Dad!" Zhao Na grabbed Zhao Youcai's hand.

"Buy!" Zhao Youcai divided out two pieces of unity and gave one to Zhao Hong and one to Zhao Na.

"No?" Wang Meilan saw this and shouted, "Why do you give your child so much money?"

"Don't make any noise!" With money, Zhao Youcai's whole person changed. He raised his neck at Wang Meilan and said, "Didn't you hear that my daughter wants a schoolbag?"

"I want a schoolbag..." Wang Meilan was about to say something else, but she saw Zhao Youcai quickly found ten pieces of money, threw it at Wang Meilan's feet, and said: "With these one hundred yuan, whatever is needed at home, just buy it. .”

Wang Meilan glanced at Qian in surprise, and then at Zhao Youcai in surprise. At this time, Zhao Youcai divided out five more and threw them in front of Zhao Jun, saying: "It costs fifty to buy the stick, I'll pay for it."

Looking at the wealthy Zhao Youcai, Zhao Jun was also confused.

Zhao Youcai glanced at Zhao Jun, snorted softly, and said, "Isn't it just this little money? What else can you do?"

After saying that, Zhao Youcai glanced at the three big unity cards left in his hand, tilted his body, reached into his trouser pocket and took out another twenty yuan, and then stuffed the five big unity cards into Zhao Chun's hand and said: "This is for my eldest grandson. I don't know how to buy anything. You can buy it for your child after that."

"Dad!" Zhao Chun was instantly moved and pushed the money towards Zhao Youcai with his backhand, saying, "I don't want it."

"Why don't you want it?" Zhao Youcai pushed the money back to Zhao Chun and whispered: "Take it, my daughter, dad gave it to you."

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Youcai looked back at the door, then leaned in front of Zhao Chun and whispered: "Should I not let Jianjun get fifty yuan? I gave it to him too."

Zhao Youcai knew that Zhou Jianjun couldn't keep the fifty yuan, so he might as well sell it to his daughter, so he told Zhao Chun directly.

"Yeah!" Zhao Chun nodded heavily. At this time, she had forgotten the previous unpleasantness with Zhao Youcai, and she also felt that her biological father was on the same page as her.

"Hey? His dad." At this time, Wang Meilan called Zhao Youcai. When Zhao Youcai looked at Wang Meilan, he saw Wang Meilan putting money into his pocket and asking: "Tell the truth, how many pigs did you catch?"

"Huh?" Zhao Youcai was startled, and then Wang Meilan asked again: "How much money do you have to earn? To be so generous to us."

"I asked you to say this!" Zhao Youcai rolled his eyes at Wang Meilan and said angrily: "Then I knocked ten pigs and sold them for a whopping four hundred yuan. Didn't I give them all to you when I got back?"

After hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Wang Meilan clicked her eyes and stopped talking.

"Dad!" Zhao Jun asked from the side: "Are you still going up the mountain tomorrow?"

In the past, Zhao Jun would definitely not ask this kind of question, but recently Zhao Youcai asked for leave. Moreover, Zhao Jun wanted to go up the mountain tomorrow, so he asked Zhao Youcai.

"I'm not going." Zhao Youcai waved his hand and said, "I'll go to work tomorrow."

"Yes, just don't go." Wang Meilan continued.

Hearing Wang Meilan's words, Zhao Jun, Zhao Youcai, and Zhao Chun all looked at her, and Wang Meilan smiled and said: "I earned four hundred that time, and the next day I knocked someone's old cow, and I paid one thousand. This time I can't win." Come on, just accept it when you’re ready.”

As soon as Wang Meilan said this, Zhao Youcai's face darkened, he moved his legs to get off the kang, and walked away.

Seeing Zhao Youcai leaving, Wang Meilan laughed, took the money from Zhao Chun's hand, stuffed it into Zhao Chun's pocket, and said, "My dear daughter, put the money away. If your father gives it to you, just take it."

Zhao Chun felt quite embarrassed, but he also felt warm in his heart. Since he returned to his parents' home, his mother gave him gold, his father gave him money, and his younger brother and younger sister all kissed him. For Zhao Chun, he was really happy.

"Son!" Wang Meilan called Zhao Jun and said, "It's time to say it or not. It's a good job to catch the fish today. Let's catch a few more nets tomorrow. When you get married, we'll have a banquet at our house and we can put another fish on the table."

"Okay, Mom." Zhao Jun agreed, and Wang Meilan muttered: "Who has a network? If not, let's borrow it."

"Oh my god." Zhao Chun said, "I have a network, but I can't connect to it myself?"

"That's right." Wang Meilan said: "If you want to help the people, it will be fine. Let's make some threads for him to weave."

When Wang Meilan mentioned Zhang Yuanmin, Zhao Jun also thought of that old boy. Shouldn't say it, Zhao Jun really misses him after not seeing him for a few days.

At this time, deep in the mountains, in a shack in the west of Xiaolingchang.

Under the horseshoe lamp, Zhang Yuanmin and Gu Yang leaned together, and the two of them stared at the little book in Zhang Yuanmin's hand.

In the little book, there is an illustration of the story of Zhuge Liang's Tianshui taking Bo Yue. Looking at Jiang Wei who prostrated himself under Zhuge Liang's cloak, Zhang Yuanmin said to Gu Yang, "Did you see it? This is Jiang Wei, Phoenix!"

"Phoenix?" Gu Yang stared and said, "Isn't that a bitch?"

Mountain people have not read books and do not know that Phoenix is ​​a male and a female, but regard it as a name. The dragons and phoenixes embroidered on those old-fashioned wedding quilts and pillows represent auspiciousness. In their view, the dragon represents men and the phoenix represents women.

"That's not true!" Zhang Yuanmin shook his head and said: "Phoenix is ​​pretty cool anyway, Jiang Wei is also great, Zhao Yun's old lamp is so evil, the two of them are doing all sorts of things."

When Gu Yang nodded, Zhang Yuanmin changed the subject and asked, "Brother, who gave you your name?"

"My dad." Gu Yang replied.

"It's an average name." Zhang Yuanmin shook his head slightly. Seeing that Gu Yang didn't take it too seriously, Zhang Yuanmin said, "Why? It sounds like that old foreign devil."

I don’t know why, but the words coming out of Zhang Yuanmin’s mouth are extremely confusing and inflammatory, and it is extremely easy to gain the trust of others.

"Tsk!" After hearing Zhang Yuanmin's words, Gu Yang said with some distress: "There's no other way, then..."

"Why didn't you recruit me?" Zhang Yuanmin said, "Let's change the name."

"Change your name?" Gu Yang frowned and said, "Change what?"

"What do you think about changing my name to Gu Wei?" Zhang Yuanmin thought hard, and after failing to persuade Xiao Lingdang and Yang Yufeng to change their names, he finally decided to blame others.

"Gu Wei?" Gu Yang frowned and said, "That's my third sister from my uncle's family."

"It's not Gu Wei." Zhang Yuanmin said, "It's Gu Wei, Jiang Wei's Wei."

"Are you feeding me chicken feathers?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind Zhang Yuanmin. Liu Hanshan raised his head from the pillow, frowned at Zhang Yuanmin, and said: "At night, I light the lamp and boil the oil without sleeping. I'm so fucking dreaming. , I want you to wake me up!"

"Stop it!" Zhang Yuanmin glared at Liu Hanshan and said, "If you stop it, I won't let you fight against the blind man tomorrow."

"If you don't lead me, I will tell Zhao Jun." Liu Hanshan said nothing and turned away from Zhang Yuanmin.

Zhang Yuanmin held up the little book and gestured to the back of Liu Hanshan's head, then stood up and took off the horseshoe lamp, got off the kang and sent it out the door. Then he came back and got on the kang, calling Gu Yang: "Go to sleep, we have a tough battle tomorrow. .”

Hearing Zhang Yuanmin mention the word tough battle, Gu Yang thought of the black blind man. When he thought of the black blind man, Gu Yang pulled up the quilt and covered his head.

It's late at night and people are not quiet.

Zhao Youcai once had a dream. In the dream, he was rich, and stacks of large knots were sewn into his cotton-padded jacket, making the cotton-padded jacket look like a battle armor.

Tonight, Zhao Youcai had the same dream again.

"Haha! Haha! Hahahaha!" Zhao Youcai couldn't help but giggle in his sleep, waking up the little lynx sleeping between the pillows of him and Zhao Jun.

The little lynx jumped over Zhao Jun's head and landed between the pillows of Zhao Jun and Zhou Jianjun.

Not long after the little lynx lay down, Zhou Jianjun suddenly laughed, shocking the little lynx to get up again.

Compared with Zhao Youcai, Zhou Jianjun's dream was much simpler. He dreamed that he and Zhao Jun and a group of people were setting up a net in Dongdagou. Big fish weighing more than ten kilograms or twenty kilograms covered the entire river one after another.

The little lynx jumped over Zhao Jun and jumped back between Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai.

At this time, Zhao Youcai had calmed down. The little lynx retracted its short tail, curled up, and leaned its head on Zhao Jun's pillow, with its butt facing Zhao Youcai.

Not long after the little lynx fell asleep, Zhao Youcai suddenly sat up in shock and looked around in panic.

The room was dark, and Zhao Youcai's mind went blank when he woke up. He looked around blankly.

Suddenly, Zhao Youcai seemed to remember something, and he moved his hands to the left and right to fumble. The moment he touched Zhao Jun's quilt, Zhao Youcai grabbed the quilt and lifted it up with force.

Zhao Jun woke up with a start, stood up and turned on the light, looked at Zhao Youcai through his sleepy eyes, and asked, "Dad, what are you doing?"

When the lights came on, Zhao Youcai looked at Zhao Jun, glared and asked, "Where is my cotton-padded jacket?"

"Cotton-padded jacket?" Zhao Jun was stunned, stretched out his hand and pulled the black cotton-padded jacket under Zhao Youcai's quilt, pulled it in front of Zhao Youcai, and asked, "Dad, why don't you put it on your feet?"

Zhao Youcai grabbed the cotton-padded jacket and nervously touched its surface.

Seeing Zhao Youcai's appearance, Zhao Jun asked: "Dad, did you sleep cold?"

"Ah, it's not cold." Zhao Youcai replied lightly, finally coming back to his senses.

Previously, Zhao Youcai dreamed of turning cotton-padded jackets into money armor, but when he turned around, he lost the cotton-padded jacket.

"Dad, what's wrong?" Zhao Jun asked with concern. At this time, Zhou Jianjun also woke up. Drowsily, he opened his eyes under the dazzling light and asked, "Dad, Xiaojun, what's wrong?"

"Ah, it's okay." Zhao Youcai said, "You two go to sleep."

"My father is asleep." Zhao Jun turned around and said to Zhou Jianjun: "Brother-in-law, you can go to sleep. He will still go to work tomorrow."

Turning off the lights and lying down, Zhao Jun and Zhou Jianjun quickly fell asleep, but Zhao Youcai couldn't sleep.

He put his arms outside the quilt and clasped his hands tightly together. At this time, Zhao Youcai felt very uneasy. He was a little worried about the money he kept in Lin Xiangshun's kennel.

This is not because Zhao Youcai doesn't trust Lin Xiangshun. Lin Xiangshun has lived in his house for three years, so he is just like his own child. However, the more Zhao Youcai thought about it, the more he thought the kennel was unreliable.

Sometimes, some things are not that big at first, but the more you think about them, the more annoying and uneasy they become.

As time passed, Zhao Youcai fell into deep uneasiness. He tossed and turned, staring at the little lynx from one o'clock in the morning to three o'clock in the morning, neither one nor the other lynx fell asleep.

The room was dark, and Zhao Youcai couldn't see clearly the clock on the wall. He was uneasy for a while. When he heard some movement in the outer room, Zhao Youcai knew that it was Wang Meilan who was getting up.

Zhao Youcai sat up, took the cotton-padded jacket covering his feet and put it on, then put on his cotton trousers and went to the ground.

"Ouch!" Wang Meilan, who was lighting the fire in front of the stove, heard the sound of the door opening behind her. She turned around and asked, "Why did you get up so early?"

"Ah, I'm going to the latrine." Zhao Youcai replied and walked out quickly.

It’s past three-thirty in the Northeast winter morning, but before four o’clock, it’s still dark outside.

Zhao Youcai, who came out of the house, didn't care about anything and hurried out of the hospital with a flashlight.

It was all in vain, Zhao Youcai walked out with a purpose, and did not notice that Black Tiger's kennel was empty.

When he saw Zhao Youcai coming, Erhei, who was standing outside the kennel, let out a mournful cry.

"Er Hei!" Zhao Youcai had something on his mind, so he didn't pay attention to distinguish Er Hei's cry. He just thought it wanted to get close to him, and immediately called Er Hei: "I'll be back soon!"

With that said, Zhao Youcai left the yard.

Coming out of his yard, Zhao Youcai walked quickly to Lin Xiangshun's house. When he arrived outside Lin Xiangshun's courtyard, Zhao Youcai frowned. As he opened the fence and entered the courtyard, he swiped his flashlight under the east wall and couldn't help but secretly thought: "It's broken!"

Then, Zhao Youcai took long strides and ran towards the backyard.
