The whole mountain is my hunting ground

The old Su family is not a local household in Yongan Forest District. Not to mention that Zhao Jun is not familiar with them, even if it is Zhao Youcai, he only knows the deceased Su Dehai, and they are just nodding acquaintances, and there is no courtesy exchange.

At this time, when Zhao Jun heard the Su family asking Zhou Jianjun about him, he knew why they were looking for him without asking.

There are no secrets in the village. Hong Yuntao and Su Dehai returned to Yongfu Village at midnight the day before yesterday. Yesterday morning, the news of their death spread in the tofu shops and small shops in the four villages.

So when Wang Qiang saw Zhou Jianjun last night, he asked him if he came to Zhao Jun to fight the big brown bear.

Zhou Jianjun went to Yongan yesterday for two purposes. He did want to ask Zhao Jun to help, but Zhao Jun didn't respond to the conversation at the dinner table yesterday, so Zhou Jianjun knew that his brother-in-law was not willing to go.

At this time, when Su Dejiang asked about Zhao Jun, Zhou Jianjun frowned. He also guessed what the Su family was going to do, but his brother-in-law was on his side, and Zhou Jianjun didn't want to embarrass Zhao Jun.

"Old Su, second brother." Zhou Jianjun helped Su Dejiang up and said to him, "Hurry up and help my aunt."

Su Dehai is only 26 this year, and his son is only four years old. It is impossible for him to take over the forest farm. So when Zhou Jianjun went to the Su family to provide relief to the widows and orphans yesterday, he discussed with the Su family that Su Dejiang would take over his brother's job, and then Su Dejiang would give his nephew 20 yuan of salary every month. As for Su Dehai's widow, the forest farm also took care of her, so that the female comrade could also do odd jobs in the canteen and logistics.

She would soon be a forest farm employee, and Su Dejiang didn't dare to offend Zhou Jianjun. Hearing what Zhou Jianjun said, Su Dejiang hurried to help his mother.

Li Yulian lost her husband early in her life, and she has been living with her youngest son Su Dejiang in the past few years. At this time, Su Dejiang came to help her, and the old lady was a little reluctant, but she had to get up reluctantly.

"Leader Zhou!" Li Yulian held Zhou Jianjun's hand, shaking with tears in her eyes and said, "You have to take care of my Dehai's affairs."

"Auntie, we will definitely take care of it!" Zhou Jianjun said kindly, "Today we will send Xiao Su away, and tomorrow our security team leader will go up the mountain again."

Hearing Zhou Jianjun's words, Li Yulian didn't agree with it.

In 1987, whenever there were mountain animals causing trouble in Yong'an Forest District, Zhao Jun would always solve the problem.

The wild boar king who blocked people in Yongshengtun, the wild boar king who killed two people in Xinlengchang, the black bear who bit Jiang Hua and Tao Dasheng to death...

Especially when Li Daguai died in Yongshengtun a while ago, what happened if the entire security team was dispatched? The security team couldn't solve the problem, and the upper bureau sent a special tiger-hunting team, but what happened in the end? Wasn't it Zhao Jun who killed the tiger?

So when someone wrote the gift account at the Hong family not long ago, and then went to the Su family to write the gift account, and told the Su family about Zhao Jun's arrival, Li Yulian, who learned the news, rushed here with her family.

But because the family members were not united, the matter was anticlimactic.

Everyone present could see clearly, and the Hong family did not say anything when they saw this situation.

Seeing the Su family leave, Zhao Jun in the crowd did not step forward. He did not want to care about this matter. According to the old generation, mountain animals that killed people are taboos, and they should not be touched if possible.

But for Zhao Jun, the main reason was that the relationship was not in place. Zhao Jun did not want to talk about that.

It was not that Zhao Jun was hard-hearted, the snow on the mountain was thick, and the brown bear was big.

It is said that black bears under 300 kilograms are not qualified to hurt big pants. The black bear that caused Zhang Yuanmin to be hospitalized weighed more than 300 kilograms, and it was not easy for hunting dogs to chase it.

Fortunately, the black bear fell into the turtle pit and suffocated to death, otherwise it would have been a fierce battle.

The brown bear that hurt Hong Yuntao and Su Dehai was much bigger than the black bear that day. It could not be trapped even in the turtle pit that the black bear had.

In other words, the brown bear's activities were less restricted in the heavy snow.

Therefore, Zhou Chengguo could not catch the shadow of the big brown bear yesterday. If he wanted to deal with it, he had to rely on hunting dogs to track it.

But there was heavy snow on the mountain. When the brown bear suddenly attacked and injured the dog, the dog was affected by the snow and could not escape.

Even if the Zhao family dog ​​gang had armor on their bodies, they would still be at risk of injury and death from the brown bear's big slap.

He was not familiar with the old Su family, so what did Zhao Jun want? For fame? For profit?

Reputation, Zhao Jun felt that his reputation was good enough. Besides, he did not help those people for fame before. He had a reputation today because it was natural.

As for profit, Zhao Jun looked down on it even more. That brown bear gallbladder was worth a lot of money, but if any dog ​​died because of it, Zhao Jun would feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, Zhao Jun did not accept the job, and he believed that if he did not accept it, his brother-in-law and Uncle Zhou would not force him to accept it.

As the Su family left, the crowd of onlookers also dispersed, and Zhao Jun walked out of the village with Lin Xiangshun, Li Baoyu, and Han Dachun.

Hong Yuntao and Su Dehai both died suddenly, so the mourning shed could only be set up outside the village. There will be a small ceremony in front of the mourning shed later, and Zhao Jun and his friends can participate or not.

After that, the coffin will be sent to the mountain, and then the pit will be burned and buried on the mountain.

Whether to participate in these things also depends on the relationship. If you have a good relationship, you can go and help. For such things, the people in the village usually contribute more.

Just like in Zhao Jun's previous life, when Wang Meilan died, almost all the men in the village followed her up the mountain.

Zhao Jun and his friends had a hard time last night, and they were not prepared to follow her up the mountain, so they walked out of the village. The commuter bus has been parked outside the village, and they can get on the bus and wait first. When everyone is gathered, they will go to the forest farm to work.

"Jun." Han Daming asked Zhao Jun as he walked, "Where is my master? Why did he let you come here by yourself?"

It's not that Zhao Jun can't come, just like Li Dayong, Li Baoyu and his son have come. It's just that Li Baoyu is accompanying Zhao Jun and others to join in the fun. He can come or not. But Li Dayong cannot do that. He is the head of the old Li family.

In the same way, the head of the old Zhao family is Zhao Youcai. Regardless of whether it was in name or otherwise, there was no reason for Zhao Jun to come alone.

Zhao Jun had already explained this matter in the car. But to those people, Zhao Jun only said that his father had a cold.

As for Han DaMing, Zhao Jun didn't have so many worries. But just as he was about to say something, he was stopped.

Looking at the young woman wearing linen and mourning, and the four-year-old child, Zhao Jun couldn't help but frown.

"Brother Zhao." It was not Zhao Jun who identified the young widow. Liu Cuiping, Su Dehai's daughter-in-law, knelt down in front of Zhao Jun when she arrived. And she knelt down, dragging the child to her knees as well.

Zhao Jun was suddenly startled, and he subconsciously hid back, feeling helpless.

Is this moral kidnapping?

It was excusable, but Zhao Jun went around to the child, put his arms around the child's waist and helped him up. At the same time, he said, "You are the sister-in-law of the Su family, right? We can't do this."

After Zhao Jun helped the child up, Liu Cuiping's kneeling there seemed a bit awkward. But Liu Cuiping still didn't get up and said to Zhao Jun with tears in her eyes: "Brother, my Dehai..."

"Alas!" Zhao Jun sighed heavily, interrupted Liu Cuiping and said, "Sister-in-law, I may be wrong to say this. But Brother Su is no longer here, so you have to mourn. If you don't do it for yourself, you also have to take care of the children."

At this time, Liu Cuiping was still kneeling, but there was nothing she could do. She was a widow, and Zhao Jun couldn't reach out to help her. If he helps her, she can't afford it, and it will be troublesome for the two of them to stand in a stalemate.

Liu Cuiping was startled and her tears stagnated. At this time, Zhao Jun took out five yuan from his pocket, folded it and stuffed it into the child's pocket.

Then, Zhao Jun said to Liu Cuiping: "This is my intention. After finishing my sister-in-law's business... I will leave first."

After saying that, Zhao Jun let go of the child, gave Liu Cuiping a fist, walked around the child and left.

"No..." Liu Cuiping stood up subconsciously. She wanted to stop Zhao Jun but it was too late.

When Liu Cuiping came here with her child, there were people watching the excitement around. Zhao Jun stuffed five yuan into the child's pocket but did not write a gift account. This favor was meaningful enough and no one could say anything else.

Even the gifts received by the old Su family today were unlikely to reach the hands of Liu Cuiping and her mother-in-law. It's okay if anything written in Su Dehai's name belongs to her; if it's for her mother-in-law Li Yulian, it belongs to Li Yulian; if it's for her brother-in-law Su Dejiang, it belongs to Su Dejiang.

Zhao Jun did not go to Su's house to write the gift account before, which means that Zhao and Su's family were rude. Now they gave the child five yuan. This gift should not be returned.

Five dollars may be more or less, but in people's eyes, Zhao Jun is interesting enough. Even if he doesn't fight the brown bear for Su Dehai, no one can fault him.

Being treated like this by Liu Cuiping, Zhao Jun felt a little uncomfortable.

After coming out of the village, Zhao Jun and others got on the commuter bus.

Han Dachun was always in the car. The couple had no children and rarely participated in weddings and funerals. Han Dachun would only be present unless he was Han Dachun's colleague in the cafeteria or a relatively good friend in the village.

Han Dachun didn't give gifts to Hong Yuntao and Su Dehai today, but he had to go to work with the car, so he stayed in the car.

"Brother." Han Daming followed Zhao Jun onto their commuter bus in Yong'antun. After the brothers said hello, Han Daming said to Han Dachun: "After work, I want to see my master."

"You go." Han Dachun said: "Don't say you went, I have to go too."

"No need, Uncle Da Chun." Zhao Jun said to the Han brothers: "Uncle Da Ming, my dad is fine."

"That won't work either." Han Daming smiled and said, "That's my master."

After saying this, Han Daming turned to Han Dachun and said, "Brother, I will stay with you tonight."

"Okay, let's stay. We have room at home." Han Dachun responded to his brother, then turned to Zhao Jun and said, "Jun, they have to finish their work in a while, why don't you just sit in the car and take a nap?"

The "you" in Han Dachun's mouth include not only Zhao Jun but also Li Baoyu and Lin Xiangshun. They all looked tired.

"Yeah!" Han Daming echoed from the side: "No one is coming up now, there is a place here, you can lie down there and have a sleep."

"Uncle Daming." Zhao Jun said with a wry smile: "I can fall asleep even sitting down."

…

Yong'an Village Zhaojia.

Zhao Youcai slept soundly, but he was woken up by a burst of crying and shouting.

Zhao Hong and Zhao Na were on either side of Zhao Youcai, one on the left and the other on the right. The two young ladies lay on Zhao Youcai and cried bitterly.

The children were dying in their sleep. Last night Zhao Jun and the others came back and started tossing so much that the three children didn't even wake up.

When Zhao Jun left this morning, Zhao Hong and Zhao Na woke up. When the two little girls woke up, they screamed for their dad.

Zhao Youcai slept like a dead pig, and Wang Meilan felt sorry for and hated him. Zhao Youcai didn't make the whole family sleep well because of his troubles;

The men came to look for him in the middle of the night, and the women were worried that their men had not slept well either.

So, Wang Meilan said angrily to her two daughters, "What are you looking for, your dad? Your dad is kicking the cannon eggs."

When Wang Meilan said these words, even Xiao Lingdang cried.

Wang Meilan had no choice but to coax three children. But when Zhao Hong and the others were going to see Zhao Youcai, they were stopped by Wang Meilan.

Because Zhao Youcai had a fever and was talking nonsense at around five o'clock in the morning, scientifically speaking, he caught a cold, and unscientifically speaking, he might have caught something in the mountains.

Regardless of whether it was scientific or unscientific, Wang Meilan did not let the three children go to see Zhao Youcai.

After not sleeping all night, Wang Meilan felt uncomfortable all over. But she felt sorry for her son and took over the task of feeding the dog.

At this time, after washing the pots and bowls, Wang Meilan took the warm dog food out to feed the dog.

When she left, Xiao Lingdang could not stop the two little aunts. And she was also very worried about Zhao Youcai, so she followed Zhao Hong and Zhao Na.

When the three children came in, they saw that Zhao Youcai was pale and lying straight on the kang. Zhao Hong was stunned.

At this time, little Zhao Na went over to call Zhao Youcai, but Zhao Youcai did not wake up. When Zhao Na turned around and asked Zhao Hong, "Second sister, what happened to our father?", Zhao Hong burst into tears.

As Zhao Hong said, "Our dad is really kicked by a cannon's egg", the two little girls threw themselves on Zhao Youcai and cried. Xiao Lingdang tried to persuade them but couldn't stop them.

"Cough! Cough!" Zhao Youcai coughed twice because of the pressure from his two daughters. He opened his eyes with difficulty and called out in a hoarse voice, "Second daughter, old daughter!"

"Dad, you are not dead?" Zhao Hong's words almost made Zhao Youcai angry to death, but he quickly realized that his second daughter was still young and ignorant, and she was just worried about him.

"Second daughter, Dad is not dead." Zhao Youcai showed Zhao Hong an ugly smile and said, "Dad still has to save up the betrothal gift for my second daughter to say that she is a son-in-law."

This is Zhao Youcai's recent idea. Although this idea was not recognized by Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun, Zhao Youcai felt it was pretty good.

"Dad!" Zhao Hong threw herself on Zhao Youcai and put her chubby little face on Zhao Youcai's old face without any disgust.

Just when Zhao Youcai was feeling very relieved, Zhao Hong choked up and said, "I thought you wouldn't come back."

Zhao Youcai: "..."

"Ahem." After a light cough, Zhao Youcai still said to Zhao Hong kindly, "Second daughter, what are you talking about? Dad..."

Before Zhao Youcai finished speaking, Zhao Hong stood up and pointed at the little bell who was wiping Zhao Na's tears and said, "Lingdang's father went up the mountain and didn't come back."

Little bell: "..."

Zhang Yuanmin didn't come back for the time being, but Wang Meilan came back at this time.

Zhao Hong and Zhao Na were crying in the house. Wang Meilan, who was feeding the dog outside, didn't hear them, but the dog heard them.

Seeing Qinglong and Qinghuhu barking at the west room of her house, she really thought that Zhao Youcai had brought something unclean back with him. He didn't make trouble before because his son was calming him down. As soon as his son left for work, the dirty thing started to make trouble.

Wang Meilan was frightened when she remembered that there were three little girls in the room. She hurriedly ran to the west room, entered the room and listened to what Zhao Hong said, and came over and slapped Zhao Hong.

This slap was on the shoulder, Wang Meilan didn't use much force, and Zhao Hong, who was wearing a cotton jacket, didn't feel any pain.

But Wang Meilan pointed at Zhao Hong and scolded her: "No, don't talk nonsense, your brother Zhang is fine, what nonsense are you talking about?"

At this time, Zhao Youcai wanted to speak to protect his second daughter, but he couldn't help coughing when he opened his mouth.

When he coughed, Wang Meilan remembered that he had a fever, and hurriedly waved her hand outside to urge the three little girls to go out.

"Lan Na!" The three little girls went out, and Zhao Youcai just stopped coughing, so he said to Wang Meilan: "Why are you hitting the children?"

"I don't hit the children, I hit you!" Wang Meilan said and slapped Zhao Youcai.
