The whole mountain is my hunting ground

"Uncle!" Seeing that Zhao Youcai was about to run away, Li Ruhai hurriedly raised his right hand and shouted to his back: "Listen to what I have to say!"

Zhao Youcai stopped, turned around and asked Li Ruhai, "What's going on?"

Li Ruhai trotted in front of Zhao Youcai, and Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, and Lin Xiangshun also came together.

I just heard Li Ruhai say to Zhao Youcai: "Uncle, my mother and my aunt have agreed at home that the little tiger cub will be raised by my elder brother. When he is raised, it will belong to him and my brother."

It stands to reason that Li Ruhai brought the little lynx back. Even if it were to be divided, Li Ruhai would have to have a share, or it would be half for both families.

But neither of these two families is stupid. Otherwise, they would not have been able to silence Zhao Youcai and Li Dayong if they had not followed what Jin Xiaomei said.

And according to what Jin Xiaomei said, if Li Baoyu was half as good as Li Baoyu, Li Baoyu would get married and separate after the year, and Li Dayong would have no way to keep this little lynx.

"The two of them agreed?" Zhao Youcai knew something was wrong when he heard this, and immediately said dissatisfied: "The two of them agreed, right?"

After saying that, Zhao Youcai turned around and strode home.

Seeing this situation, Li Dayong glared at Li Ruhai, and then chased over to persuade Zhao Youcai.

In fact, Li Dayong had a clear mind. Since this matter was decided by Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei, it was basically a done deal.

In addition, Li Dayong also knew that Zhao Youcai's tough words were actually just to save face in front of the juniors. In this case, I have to go over and give some advice so that my elder brother can get off the ground.

Seeing that Zhao Youcai and Li Dayong were gone, Lin Xiangshun pointed to the side road and said to the Li brothers: "Baoyu, Ruhai, then I'm going back."

The roads in the village extend in all directions, so Lin Xiangshun could follow them forward for a while and then turn. But Lin Xiangshun felt that something was wrong, so he decided not to get involved.

"Hey!" Li Baoyu responded: "Brother Shunzi, please slow down."

Li Ruhai also waved his hand and said, "Goodbye, Brother Shunzi!"

After watching Lin Xiangshun leave, Li Baoyu raised his hand and patted Li Ruhai twice on the shoulder, then smiled and said: "You kid, you have a future!"

Li Ruhai rolled his eyes at his brother, stretched out his hand and pulled Li Baoyu's hand off his shoulder in disgust.

They are the only two brothers in the Li family. Li Ruhai usually calls Li Baoyu brother and Zhao Jun eldest brother.

His eldest brother is rich, and slapping him twice is a sign of unity. But his brother, like him, has little money in his pocket. After slapping her hands twice, I managed to hold back a witty remark.

Li Baoyu also saw Li Ruhai's dislike of him, but he didn't mind at all. Instead, he hugged Li Ruhai's shoulders, and the two brothers walked home happily.

But compared with them, the brothers Zhao Youcai and Li Dayong were not happy. Although they walked very fast, they scolded their sons as they walked.

Zhao Youcai scolded Zhao Jun, while Li Dayong scolded Li Ruhai.

It is said that money is a man's courage. Recently, with a little money, Zhao Youcai became more obsessed with fighting siege.

To give an inappropriate example, this is like those emperors in ancient times who were talented and resourceful. In their later years, when they were physically aging and mentally weak, they singled out the prince for his faults.

As for the old Zhao family, although there is no inheritance of the throne, Zhao Youcai is not unable to move. On the contrary, he was in his prime, physically at his peak in every aspect.

But in this half of his life, what Zhao Youcai is most proud of is not his cooking skills, but his experience in fighting sieges.

Just like every time he drank too much, Zhao Youcai would tell people around him about his majesty in the mountains and forests in the past.

Since Zhao Jun became famous, others have often praised Zhao Jun to Zhao Youcai.

Maybe sometimes, these people still think Zhao Youcai has some respect, so they praise Zhao Jun to the extreme, as if he is more powerful than Zhao Youcai's father.

It’s just an outsider, but as a mother, Wang Meilan spared no effort in praising her son. In addition, the couple sometimes bickered, so Wang Meilan would use her son to hit Zhao Youcai.

All this made Zhao Youcai very unhappy. He thought that when he gave up hunting and went to the forest farm to cook for others, it was not so that he could have a stable income to support his wife, children and children.

Now that I am not old yet, why am I being compared to others?

Therefore, Zhao Youcai could not help but have the thought of winning.

Of course, these are based on the fact that Zhao Jun's family's conditions are getting better and better. With no worries about food and clothing, Zhao Youcai wanted to come out again so that he could take back the position of Yongan's first gunner from his son.

But this road is destined to be bumpy. Now the front and back of the family yard are full of people, and there is no room for Zhao Youcai's dog gang.

Zhao Youcai had no choice but to place the three red dogs in Hong Yuntao's house. For this reason, Zhao Youcai had to give Hong Yuntao two yuan and twenty kilograms of corn noodles every month.

However, Zhao Jun will get married in the next year. When the house and yard are vacated, Zhao Youcai will have a place to raise dogs.

But now, counting Erhei, Zhao Youcai only has four dogs, and the two puppies among them are still nursing. When these two puppies grow up, it will take at least two or three years to drag them into mature hunting dogs.

Zhao Youcai didn't want to wait another day!

It was also a coincidence that Zhao Jun led the dog gang into the mountains to fight the siege and brought back a nest of young jackals. Jackals are natural hunters. They can hunt when they grow up, and they can hunt much faster than hunting dogs.

Therefore, Zhao Youcai set his sights on those three jackals again. In terms of experience in fighting sieges, Zhao Youcai and Zhao Jun are comparable.

However, most of Zhao Jun's experience was provided by later generations, while Zhao Youcai learned many of his experiences from his seniors.

When Zhao Youcai followed his father down the mountain, he met an old man who was a real master. By chance, Zhao Youcai heard Lao Shan Huozi bragging about his experience in training jackals.

What Li Ruhai heard this morning was only a small part. Zhao Youcai still had money in his stomach. He was waiting for Zhao Jun to fail in training the jackals so that he could take over.

But before he could take action, Zhao Jun saw another lynx, and it was still a cub.

For a moment, Zhao Youcai was a little jealous of his son, wondering how this boy could be so lucky.

However, even if Li Dayong can understand things, Zhao Youcai naturally understands them too. He knew that now that the lynx was in Zhao Jun's hands, it would be difficult for him to dig it out.

Zhao Youcai and Li Dayong entered from the courtyard gate and hurried home. Behind them are Li Baoyu and Li Ruhai.

As soon as Zhao Youcai opened the door, Wang Meilan, who was heating food in front of the stove, smiled at him and said, "Ah, I'm back."

"Yes." Zhao Youcai nodded and strode towards the room after hearing the laughter and laughter coming from the west room.

Before Wang Meilan could recover, she saw Li Dayong coming in. Wang Meilan smiled and said: "Dayong, you are here just in time. Xiaomei will come over soon, and we will stay here to eat in the evening."

"Hey!" Li Dayong nodded, and then hurried to the west room.

Wang Meilan blinked, then shook her head, and put the leftover basket from yesterday into the pot.

As soon as Zhao Youcai entered the room, he saw Zhao Jun, Zhao Hong, Zhao Na and Li Xiaoqiao sitting around the Kang.

Seeing Zhao Youcai entering the house, Zhao Jun smiled at him and said, "Dad."

As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, he saw Li Dayong again and greeted him again: "Uncle Li."

While Zhao Jun was talking, Zhao Youcai came to the edge of the kang. He squeezed between Zhao Hong and Zhao Na and saw the little lynx lying on the kang.

"Oh!" The first time he saw this gadget, Zhao Youcai felt a kind of love from the bottom of his heart.

He stretched out his hands, clasped the little lynx's waist together, and then held it in his hands with his backhand.

At this time, Li Dayong, who was following Zhao Youcai, his eyes lit up when he looked at the little lynx.

To the three little girls, this little guy was like a kitten, very cute and rare.

But for Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai, they like this little lynx because it is a natural hunter in the mountains and forests. It is the most powerful cat among the black waters and white mountains, behind the Siberian tiger and the Siberian leopard.

The door to the outer room was opened again. Li Baoyu and Li Ruhai said hello to Wang Meilan and then came to the west room.

At this time, Zhao Youcai held up the little lynx and called to Li Dayong: "Dayong, see if it's a male or a female?"

Li Dayong really listened to Zhao Youcai's words. He stretched out his hand to brush the hair between the little lynx's hind legs, took a closer look and said to Zhao Youcai: "Brother, this is a male."

"Ouch!" When Zhao Youcai heard this, he quickly stopped and held the little lynx in his arms, and then said to Li Dayong: "This is going to be raised well. It will weigh one hundred and eighty pounds, but it will be awesome... Hey... Hey! "

Before Zhao Youcai finished speaking, Zhao Jun took the little lynx away from his arms. Zhao Youcai glared at Zhao Jun, just as Wang Meilan shouted from outside: "Put the table down and get ready to eat!"

Zhao Youcai glared at Zhao Jun fiercely and walked towards the east room. Li Baoyu took the opportunity to come over and slapped the little lynx twice on the head.

"Oh." Li Baoyu said to Zhao Jun with a smile: "Brother, this thing looks like a kitten."

"Yeah." Zhao Jun put the little lynx into the pine box and asked a few little girls to go down to wash their hands and eat.

At this time, she heard someone knocking on the door. Wang Meilan hurriedly pushed the door open, and Jin Xiaomei came in sideways carrying a large plate. On the plate were four pig's trotters, one pig's tail and two pig's ears.

Ten minutes later, the banquet started at Zhao Jun’s house. There was a round table where adults and children were seated.

Although there are not as many dishes today as last night, there are pig head meat sliced ​​into plates and meat jelly cut into mahjong pieces, both of which are dipped in garlic paste.

The pig's trotters, pig's tail and pig's ears are all salty. Jin Xiaomei sauced them first and then smoked them. Then she cut the pig's trotters into pieces and the pig's ears into shreds. Although there were few pig tails, they were cut into pieces and shared among everyone.

Coupled with the folded baskets of leftover vegetables from yesterday, the two families had enough to eat.

After eating and drinking, Zhao Youcai and Li Dayong followed a few little girls and squeezed onto the kang in the west room, teasing the little lynx for a while.

It wasn't until Jin Xiaomei helped Wang Meilan put away the dishes and chopsticks that she called the four Li family masters home.

After the Li family left, Wang Meilan laid out the bedding in the east room and came over to greet Zhao Youcai and the two little girls back to sleep. Unexpectedly, Zhao Youcai carried the little lynx and went down to the kang.

"Hey, Dad." Zhao Jun saw this and quickly stopped him. At this time, the little guy's claws are at a disadvantage, and it is a good time to establish a relationship with it. How could Zhao Jun let Zhao Youcai take it away.

Being stopped by Zhao Jun, Zhao Youcai frowned and said to Zhao Jun: "You are so jealous of me, so let me hug you for the night."

What Zhao Youcai said is true. This kitten-like thing is very attractive to children. Zhao Hong and Zhao Na both like it.

So, after listening to Zhao Youcai's words, Zhao Na hurriedly said to Zhao Jun: "Brother, let me hug the cat and sleep."

Children don't know what a lynx is or what a tiger cub is, so the little girls call the little lynx a cat.

"This..." Facing his lovely sister, Zhao Jun really didn't know how to refuse.

Fortunately, at this time, Wang Meilan came from the door, pointed at Zhao Na and said: "You can pull it down, you and your sister, you two are doing somersaults and gestures while sleeping. It sleeps with you all night, so you two have to learn from it." Grind to death."

After saying that, Wang Meilan turned back to Zhao Youcai and said, "Put it down quickly and go back to the house to sleep."

"What are you leaving behind?" Zhao Youcai still tried to win over her: "My daughter likes it, so just let them hug her."

"What kind of hug?" Wang Meilan said angrily: "Can they hug each other?"

"They can't hold each other..." Zhao Youcai smiled and said, "I'll hold her."

"Go to the other side!" Wang Meilan reached out and snatched the little lynx from Zhao Youcai's arms, turned around and handed it to Zhao Jun.

Zhao Jun took the little lynx and said to Zhao Hong and Zhao Na: "You two go back to sleep and come back to play with the kitten tomorrow morning."

After hearing what their mother said just now, Zhao Hong and Zhao Na knew that they could no longer hug the kitten. They only heard Zhao Na say crisply: "Brother, let me touch the kitten again."

"Hey." Upon hearing this, Zhao Jun squatted down and let Zhao Na reach out and touch the little lynx's head gently. When Zhao Na touched her head, the little lynx narrowed her eyes.

"I'll touch it too!" Zhao Hong also stepped forward and held one of the little lynx's paws. This little guy is really sensible and keeps his claws hidden.

"Okay, okay." Wang Meilan stepped forward, hugged a girl with one hand, and said, "Go to bed quickly and touch her again tomorrow morning."

With that said, Wang Meilan turned around and said to Zhao Youcai, who was standing there: "What are you looking at? Go back."

Zhao Youcai had no choice but to leave sadly.

After they all left, Zhao Jun placed the little lynx on the edge of the kang. As soon as the little guy landed, he lay down and curled up.

Zhao Jun pulled the footbath from under the table next to him, poured hot water into it from the thermos bottle on the table, then got up and went to the outhouse, pouring half a ladle of cold water out of the large vat.

Zhao Jun turned around and prepared to pour some cold water into the footbath. But when he turned around, he found that Zhao Youcai had approached his door again at some point.

"Dad, dad." Zhao Jun shouted twice before Zhao Youcai turned around and looked at Zhao Jun with a smile.

As soon as Zhao Youcai smiled at him, Zhao Jun knew what he was going to do, and immediately said: "Dad, go back to the house and go to bed. You have to go to work tomorrow."

As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, Wang Meilan's voice came from the east room: "Zhao Youcai, it's time to wash your feet! The water will get cold soon!"

"Hey!" Zhao Youcai didn't dare to neglect and walked quickly to the east room.

Zhao Jun went back to the house to mix water and soak his feet. When he wiped his feet with a rag, the little lynx was already curled up on the edge of the kang and sleeping.

It was cold outside at night, so Zhao Jun didn't go out to pour water. He pushed the footbath under the table, then took a small bowl from the table, and picked up the malted milk bucket standing aside.

Zhao Jun went to the grocery store to buy this for the little lynx at night. No way, who makes this gadget worth so much?

Fortunately, it only lasts for about twenty days, and then it can eat solid food. This bucket of malted milk is enough.

The barrel containing malted milk was a tin barrel. Zhao Jun held the tin barrel with one hand and flicked it twice with the other hand.

"Cang! Cang!"

With two crisp sounds, the little lynx's little pointed ears moved and it instantly got up from the edge of the kang.

This was Zhao Jun's intention. After returning in the evening, Zhao Jun knocked twice before making malted milk for the little lynx.

The little lynx didn't react at the time, but when the hot water washed away the malted milk, the little lynx lost control.

Now it was the second time that the little lynx heard the sound of Zhao Jun knocking the bucket. He actually knew that dinner was about to begin.

Zhao Jun opened the bucket, poured a spoonful of malted milk into the small bowl, and then poured a little warm water from his teapot into it.

At this time, the little lynx had already come to Zhao Jun. It stretched out a calf and stepped on Zhao Jun's legs tentatively, as if it wanted to get closer to the food.

Zhao Jun took a chopstick from the table against the wall and stirred it in a small bowl. After stirring up all the malted milk, he took a thermos bottle and heated water in the bowl.

As soon as you pour the hot water, the aroma will overflow. At the same time, Zhao Jun felt his thigh sink. When he looked down, he found that the little lynx was already on his thigh!

Although it is small, its posture is extremely strong.
