The whole mountain is my hunting ground

In the ward, Zhao Jun was slightly startled. He had been very busy these days. If Zhang Yuanmin had not mentioned this matter, Zhao Jun would not have thought of it.

Looking at Zhang Yuanmin who seemed to be giving his last words, Zhao Jun let go of his hand and said: "Okay, big brother, I understand, you can take good care of him."

At this time, Wang Meilan took out several family members' wishes for Zhang Yuanmin and handed each piece of money to Yang Yufeng one by one. Among them, Zhao Jun also accompanied the old lady twenty times.

Seeing the kindness of several families, Yang Yufeng was moved and grateful. After she accepted the money, Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan said goodbye to her and Zhang Yuanmin, and then left with the little bell.

After coming out of the ward, Zhao Jun did not rush out. Instead, he went to the water boiling room to collect water from military kettles and glass bottles.

The glass bottle has a rubber stopper so it doesn't leak when filled with water. These days, rural areas use it as a hot water bottle.

Zhao Jun stuffed the glass bottle filled with hot water into Xiao Lingdang's arms, and then the three of them came out of the hospital.

On the way home, Wang Meilan, holding the little bell in her arms, said to Zhao Jun: "Son, where can I buy that big Jeep?"

"I really don't know about this." Zhao Jun glanced at Wang Meilan and asked with a smile: "Mom, do we really buy it?"

"Buy!" Wang Meilan quickly glanced around the car and said, "We have our own car, so it's convenient for us to go anywhere."

"We want to buy a car, and my dad has to say that we spend money blindly." Zhao Jun gave Zhao Youcai eye drops while talking and laughing.

"Again?" Wang Meilan, who had to listen to people's words, immediately grasped the key points of Zhao Jun's words. But with Xiao Ling Ding around, Wang Meilan didn't say anything too strong. She just moved her left hand away from Xiao Ling Ding and moved forward. He waved and said, "Son, it's Mom's birthday. You buy her a big color TV. Before your birthday, Mom buys you a big Jeep."

"Ah?" Zhao Jun felt a little hopeful after hearing this. The 212 Grand Jeep can be considered a luxury car these days. Today, the salesperson selling TVs gave it a price of thirty-four or five thousand. Zhao Jun knew that it was almost the same amount.

The current 30,000 yuan would have been equivalent to 3 million yuan when Zhao Jun was reborn. It was definitely the price of a luxury car.

"Hey?" Zhao Chun interrupted: "Mom, isn't my brother's birthday next month?"

"Auntie, when is my uncle's birthday?" Hearing this, Xiao Lingdang turned to ask Zhao Chun.

"The second day of the twelfth lunar month." Zhao Chun said: "There is still another month to come."

Wang Qiang can remember Wang Meilan's birthday, and Zhao Chun also remembers Zhao Jun's birthday.

"Buy!" Wang Meilan wanted to get a TV but Zhao Jun had to agree, but now she wanted to buy a car, but she decided directly with a wave of her hand.

"Son, you can find someone to ask around these days." Wang Meilan said to Zhao Jun: "Look where they sell that stuff. Mom will go buy it with you."

Zhao Jun nodded and smiled, and Zhao Chun said to Wang Meilan thoughtfully: "Then before I go home, my brother can drive me off in his own car."

This little wife has no intention of going back for a while.

As Zhao Jun and the four of them got closer and closer to home, every household in Yong'an Tun lit up their cooking smoke and turned on their lights.

Outside the Zhao Family Courtyard, Zhao Youcai, Wang Qiang, Jie Chen, and Li Ruhai worked together to push up a four-meter-long pine pole and set it up on the right side of the Zhao Family Courtyard Gate.

At the top of the pine pole, there is a triangular frame made of pine sticks.

Jie Chen tied the pine pole to the side of the courtyard gate with iron wire. Wang Qiang used pliers to tighten the iron wire.

At this time, Li Ruhai fixed the lit candle in the red lantern, and Zhao Youcai used a three-meter-long larch pole to lift the red lantern.

There is a wire ring on each of the two bottom corners of the tripod on the top of the pine pole. The lanterns are hung on the rings, one on the left and one on the right. They are red and bright in the dark night, which is very festive.

While Zhao Youcai was hanging up the lanterns, Wang Qiang and Jie Chen tied poles in front of the Li Family Courtyard. Immediately afterwards, the same two large lanterns were hung.

When Zhao Jun drove his car into Yong'an Tun, he saw four red dots hanging in the air from a distance. He pointed them out to Wang Meilan. Wang Meilan was startled and said: "My, is there a fire on the mountain?" ?”

"No way." Zhao Jun knew what was going on. He had given the red lanterns and ten thousand plum blossoms to Jie Chen, and asked Jie Chen to take care of things at home.

A few minutes later, the car stopped outside Zhao's courtyard. Wang Meilan, Zhao Chun, and Xiao Lingdang in the passenger seat all stared out the window in shock.

Under the light of fiery red candles, tens of thousands of plum blossoms were in full bloom on the tents of Zhao and Li's two courtyards, which was crystal clear and really pleasing to the eye.

For a moment, Wang Meilan was fascinated by the sight. She got out of the car and walked slowly to the tent, looking up at the plum blossom branches. The fiery red candlelight hit Wang Meilan's face, making her face glow, and it seemed that the wrinkles left by time on her face had faded away. .

Amidst the barking of dogs, people came out of two houses. Today Wang Meilan celebrates her birthday, and the two families open fire together.

"Minister, get in the car with me and carry something!" When the minister came out, Zhao Jun greeted him and pointed back.

"What are you buying here?" Zhao Youcai muttered and followed Jie Chen towards the car.

When he saw Zhao Jun and Jie Chen working together to lift a big thing covered with cloth from the car, Zhao Youcai asked in surprise: "What is this?"

"Get up, come on!" At this time, Wang Meilan appeared behind Zhao Youcai, gently pushed him away, and then called to Zhao Jun and the minister who was holding the TV: "Slow down!"

After Zhao Jun and Jie Chen carried the TV over, Wang Meilan directed Wang Qiang to move things on the trunk.

Wang Qiang sent the sack down, and Xie Sun and Liu Lanying took it. Wang Qiang sent down the butter paper bags tied together again, which contained Changbai cakes. Zhao Ling walked into the yard holding them.

"Xiaomei." Wang Meilan opened the carriage door, took out a cake and handed it to Jin Xiaomei, saying, "What do you see here?"

"What is this?" Jin Xiaomei stepped forward to take a look and said in surprise: "Sister-in-law, is this cake so big?"

"Take it!" Wang Meilan handed it to Jin Xiaomei and said, "This is for you."

"Huh?" Jin Xiaomei was startled when she heard this and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, no one in my family celebrates birthdays..."

"Tsk!" Before Jin Xiaomei could finish her words, she was interrupted by Wang Meilan. Wang Meilan patted her on the arm and said: "But you can't eat it on your birthday? Our family has something to do the day after tomorrow, so you can arrange it for this thing. Come on, do you think you have any face?"

Hearing Wang Meilan's words, Jin Xiaomei's eyes suddenly lit up. Everyone wants to make a grand event when doing things. Jin Xiaomei happily held the cake and whispered in Wang Meilan's ear: "Sister-in-law, I'm going back first." We're making a stew. We'll figure out how much this cake will cost tomorrow."

Wang Meilan smiled and waved her hand, and Jin Xiaomei ran away holding the cake.

After Wang Meilan took off her cake on the carriage, she turned around and saw Wang Qiang carrying a bunch of butter paper bags behind him, which were all kinds of food that Zhao Jun bought later.

After Wang Qiang died, Zhao Youcai was empty-handed. Wang Meilan rolled her eyes at him and disliked him for not working.

When Wang Meilan and Zhao Youcai entered the room, Zhao Jun had already unpacked the TV. Adults and children gathered around, especially the children, who curiously touched the TV with their little hands.

As Zhao Chun said, this is the first TV set in Yongan Forest District.

"Why are you buying this thing?" Zhao Youcai didn't expect that the big thing Zhao Jun and Jie Chen were carrying was a TV. At this time, he looked at Wang Meilan and asked, "How much does it cost?"

"Two thousand and nine." Wang Meilan thought for a moment after reporting the number, and then added: "There are no tickets, so my son gave them an extra hundred, which is exactly three thousand."

"Oh my God!" Zhao Youcai felt heartbroken when he heard this, and frowned: "Three thousand yuan to buy this thing? After the Gregorian calendar year, how good would it be to buy the one from us?"

At this time, everyone in the room, except Zhao Jun, Zhao Chun and the children who had no idea about money, all looked at Wang Meilan.

They all felt that Zhao Youcai was right. In less than a month, the farm would sell household appliances to forest farm workers at discounted prices in the form of benefits. It’s not worth buying it at this time.

"We want that place too!" Wang Meilan said arrogantly: "When we move to that end, the house will be big too. There will be one in the east room and one in the west."

Zhao Youcai: "..."

Zhao Youcai was a little speechless. He now had three rooms and had to go to his house every day to punish so many people. We are moving to the fifth floor of our new home. Can't our home be converted into a carriage and horse shop?

Zhao Youcai didn't dare to say such weird words in front of outsiders. Except for Zhao Youcai, others felt that what Wang Meilan said made sense. The only disadvantage of buying two TVs is the expense, but this disadvantage is not a problem for the Zhao family at all.

"Okay, two." The old lady was afraid that Zhao Youcai would say something that would disappoint Wang Meilan, so she immediately called Zhao Youcai and said, "The two of you will buy it, and we will watch it first."

Having said this, the old lady turned to Zhao Jun, waved her hand, and said, "Little one, turn on the TV for us to watch."

As soon as the old lady said this, everyone became anxious. They had heard that watching TV was good, but none of them had ever watched it.

"It won't work today, Grandma Jiang." Zhao Jun explained to the old lady: "We have to put the antenna outside to connect it. It's just a waste of time. Let's fix it tomorrow... huh?"

Zhao Jun suddenly froze in the middle of his words. He looked around and asked Wang Qiang, "Uncle, where is that antenna?"

When Zhao Jun moved the TV, he specifically told Wang Qiang to put the TV antenna in place.

"Antenna?" Wang Qiang was also startled, looked up at Zhao Youcai and asked, "Brother-in-law, where is the antenna?"

At that time, Wang Qiang was carrying a lot of things in his hands, so he handed the antenna to Zhao Youcai. Wang Qiang weighed the thing and it wasn't too heavy, so he wasn't afraid that Zhao Youcai wouldn't be able to lift it.

"Who are you asking?" Zhao Youcai asked, "How do I know that thing?"

Wang Qiang twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Just the one around the corner, won't I give it to you?"

"Ah..." Zhao Youcai clicked his eyes and said, "I'm looking for scraps of scrap metal. Let me throw them along the tent behind the warehouse."

"Get it back quickly!" Wang Meilan anxiously dragged Zhao Youcai out to the outhouse and said, "Without that thing, there would be no TV."

Zhao Youcai heard this and hurriedly ran out. Looking at the closed door, Wang Meilan's eyes were sharp. Others didn't know it, but she knew Zhao Youcai best. Whenever there was some scrap metal at home, Zhao Youcai would secretly pull it away and then take it to the blacksmith's furnace to exchange money.

As Zhao Youcai found the TV antenna, the room was filled with laughter again.

As the two stews of chicken stewed with mushrooms and iron pot stewed goose were served, Jin Xiaomei and Zhao Ling started cooking again.

Zhao Youcai and Wang Qiang didn't go up the mountain empty-handed today. They chased a group of roe deer on the mountain. Zhao Youcai shot twice and Wang Qiang shot once, and they captured three roe deer in total.

They dragged the roe deer home in the afternoon, and the women who had just made thousands of plum blossoms began to grill the roe deer and cut the meat in preparation for today's dinner.

Chicken stewed with mushrooms, iron pot braised goose, sauced roe deer legs, fried roe deer in water, fried river fish, braised wood frogs with sauce, fried fungus with cabbage, fried wild boar with wild bracken, fried wild boar with red mushrooms, sugared rock sugar radish, Shredded potatoes and sliced ​​sausages filled into a pot and steamed.

There were twelve dishes in total, and the table could hardly be set.

But before eating, Zhao Jun put the cake on the table and inserted candles as gifts. Wang Meilan celebrated her forty-third birthday, and the candles were definitely not enough for forty-three. Anyway, Zhao Jun turned the cake around and put candles on it.

When the lights went out, candlelight shone on everyone's faces. At this time, Zhao Hong started to sing a birthday song to Wang Meilan with Zhao Na, Li Xiaoqiao, Xiao Lingdang, Wang Tian, ​​Wang Xue, and Lin Xiaobao.

Zhao Jun taught Zhao Hong this in advance, and then asked Zhao Hong to teach other children. Zhao Jun had no doubt whether the second sister could complete the task, because he had told Zhao Hong that if he taught it, he would be rewarded.

When the children sang happy birthday in unison, Wang Meilan was slightly startled, and then tears filled her eyes.

There is no such thing as making a wish these days. Wang Meilan blew out the candles amidst everyone's blessings.

Before Li Baoyu turned on the light, the room fell into a brief darkness. At this time, Wang Meilan looked at the red lantern hanging high outside the window, feeling slightly absent-minded.

"Mom! Let's cut the cake." Zhao Jun took a knife and said to Wang Meilan: "This cake is big, let's share it among the whole family."

"Yes." Wang Meilan nodded with a smile, and Zhao Jun cut the cake and put it in Wang Meilan's bowl first with the expectant eyes of all the children, and said: "Mom, you have a try."

Wang Meilan was not polite, picked up the bowl, picked up the flowers on the side of the cake with chopsticks, and put it into her mouth.

At this time, the cream was hard, but Wang Meilan felt that it was a delicacy in the world. After taking a bite of the soft and fragrant cake dough, Wang Meilan put down the bowl with satisfaction.

"Jiang Nai!" Zhao Jun cut the second piece of cake and wanted to give it to the old lady, but the old lady waved her hand and refused, saying: "Give it to these kids first. How greedy are you looking at each of them?"

Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this and gave the cake to his little cousin Wang Xue first. Although this cake is not small, it cannot hold a large number of people. Children get more, adults get less. Women take more bites, men take less bites.

"Come on, eldest son!" Zhao Chun held Zhou Zhou with one hand and used the chopsticks with the other to pick up a little cream and put it into the child's mouth.

"Oh, oh, oh." Seeing the child grinning, the old lady smiled and said, "This kid is really good at eating!"

Although the child is small, he will be happy if he eats something sweet.

Looking at the cute little boy, everyone had smiles on their faces.

At the same time, Yongsheng settled the Zhou family. Zhou Jianjun was still sitting alone on the Kang, taking a bite of a big cold biscuit, and the crumbs of the biscuit fell on his clothes.

This is to make up for yesterday. I drank too much yesterday. This year is completely over for me. I have to update it. The update is getting later and later these days, but I can’t do it anymore.

Today's update, tonight at 6pm.

There are two places in the front that need to be slightly modified. Wang Meilan celebrated her 43rd birthday. The color TV that Zhao Jun's family bought was 21 inches and cost 2,900.

My family's conditions were not good in the past. It was only after I came back from Rakshasa that I bought a TV for my family. So, I really didn’t know the price of a TV before. I asked someone yesterday and it was almost the same price.
