The whole mountain is my hunting ground

Zhao Jun and Jie Chen came out from the Tunbu and walked home together. When he arrived at the door of his house, Jie Chen went first to the courtyard, while Zhao Jun went to the latrine.

When Zhao Jun came out of the latrine, he happened to see Zhao Youcai coming back from collecting soybeans.

"Dad!" Zhao Jun called Zhao Youcai, but his father ignored him with a sullen face.

"What's going on?" Zhao Jun was a little confused, thinking that when he was eating last night, he looked at Zhao Youcai and he was quite happy. What's going on after sleeping all night? Didn't sleep well?

Zhao Jun's guess was indeed correct. After they left yesterday, Zhao Youcai was brutally stabbed by Wang Meilan.

This knife hurt Zhao Youcai's body. After falling asleep, Zhao Youcai had a dream. He dreamed of his old rival Zhang Zhanshan.

In Zhao Youcai's dream, he was bullied by Zhang Zhanshan. Zhang Zhanshan took a knife and cut Zhao Youcai's flesh repeatedly, which was painful.

When he woke up this morning, Zhao Youcai was not very happy. When he thought that the four hundred yuan he had just saved the day before yesterday had to be taken out and handed in today, how could Zhao Youcai be happy?

"Dad, Dad!" Zhao Jun suddenly remembered something and hurried over to stop Zhao Youcai.

Zhao Youcai glanced sideways at Zhao Jun and said calmly: "What?"

"Dad." Seeing Zhao Youcai stop, Zhao Jun leaned over and whispered to him: "I have a way to make money, will you do it with me?"

"Money?" When Zhao Youcai heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he asked Zhao Jun, "What's the point?"

Zhao Jun glanced around, and when he saw no one around, he said to Zhao Youcai: "Dad, if you have money in your hand, just give me one thousand. When it's over, after one year, I can get you three thousand."

Zhao Jun said this, he really meant well. When he came back just now, Zhao Jun also thought about it. In this business of making money, you have to get your buddies to do it together. If possible, include the eldest sister and the old uncle, and if there is money, we can all make money together.

Everyone else is taking him with him, so he can't leave his own father behind. Therefore, Zhao Jun thought of making internal arrangements with Zhao Youcai to help him hide it from Wang Meilan.

In this way, after making money, Zhao Youcai's pockets will be bulging, and he will no longer have to think about hunting.

But what Zhao Jun didn't expect was that as soon as he opened his mouth to raise the money, Zhao Youcai's expression suddenly changed.

Invest one thousand and get three thousand back at the maturity of one year. Nowadays, this sounds like a scam!

For a moment, Zhao Youcai only thought that Zhao Jun was sent by Wang Meilan to inquire about his small treasury!

I just blackmailed myself for four hundred last night, I just slept all night, and I woke up again in the morning? What a deception! How unreasonable!

"Get lost!" Zhao Youcai yelled, and at the same time gave Zhao Jun a hard look, and walked into the house holding the basin of soybean curd.

Zhao Jun: "..."

Zhao Jun was dumbfounded by the scolding. He obviously had good intentions, so how could he be treated like this?

Zhao Youcai entered the courtyard carrying a basin and shouted to the next door: "Da Yong!"

As soon as Zhao Youcai finished speaking, Li Dayong came out of his house with a basin and took two pieces of tofu from the partition wall.

This morning, both families had soybean stewed with potatoes. But Zhao Jun's family likes to eat this dish with rice, mix the stewed tofu and potatoes into the rice, and then add pickles to make it delicious.

When Lao Li's family eats soybean stewed with potatoes, they like to eat it with steamed buns, especially Li Dayong, Li Baoyu and Li Ruhai. The three father and son like to dip the steamed buns into vegetable soup.

It is said that hot tofu cannot be eaten in a hurry. Instead of mixing the tofu with rice, the Li family uses chopsticks to pick apart the tofu cubes, cut them into small pieces, and then slurp them in their mouths.

Suck the tofu and bite the steamed bun. Li Dayong has to have a meeting today, otherwise he would have to take a sip.

There is no way, even if living standards have soared recently, Northeastern men's favorites will always be soybean tofu and dry tofu.

Li Dayong chewed steamed buns and tofu, and then stretched out his chopsticks to pick up potatoes.

But at this moment, Li Dayong suddenly stopped. Only then did he realize that Li Baoyu and Li Xiaoqiao, who were sitting to his left and right, didn't move their chopsticks and were all looking straight at him.

Li Dayong glanced blankly to the left and right, and finally turned his attention to Li Ruhai, who was sitting on the edge of the kang.

At this time, Li Ruhai was different from Li Baoyu and Li Xiaoqiao. He was actually eating.

But he only ate the staple food and didn't even take a bite of vegetables. He kept holding the steamed buns in his hands and kept bringing them to his mouth.

The key is that the child lowered his head, and tears kept dripping from the corners of his eyes, falling on the buns and on the edge of the kang table.

Li Dayong's mouth paused while he was chewing. Suddenly, he felt a little stuffy. The tofu and white-flour steamed buns no longer tasted good.

At this time, Jin Xiaomei came in with a bowl. The bowl in her hand was filled with sorghum rice. This meal is leftover from yesterday, and Jin Xiaomei is going to clean it up.

As soon as Jin Xiaomei entered the room, she saw Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, and Li Xiaoqiao sitting at the kang table. No one moved their chopsticks, and they all looked at Li Ruhai.

Jin Xiaomei turned her eyes and suddenly felt her heart tightening. She took a few steps closer, put the bowls and chopsticks in her hands on the kang table, then pushed Li Ruhai hard on the shoulder and said, "Tell me! What do you really want?"

Again, no dog should be beaten when eating, let alone humans?

Furthermore, the older generation is very taboo about this and try not to make their children cry when eating.

If a child as old as Li Ruhai cries while sitting at the dinner table, it's usually because something happened at home, his father died or his mother died, or else it wouldn't be like this at all.

"You idiot!" Li Dayong threw his chopsticks on the kang table and stood up to clean up Li Ruhai while holding the kang table with one hand.

In fact, last night, Li Dayong beat Li Ruhai when he came back from drinking next door. So when Li Baoyu came back, Li Ruhai had toilet paper blocking his nostrils.

At that time, Li Ruhai begged for mercy and promised not to dare to do it again today, but this morning at dinner, this guy did it again.

Jin Xiaomei saw that Li Dayong was anxious, raised her hand to stop him and asked Li Ruhai, "What do you really want?"

Jin Xiaomei knows her family well and knows that Li Ruhai has a very tough character. Let's just talk about his mouth. Jin Xiaomei and Li Dayong have never taken care of Li Ruhai since he was a child, but it's useless to hit him.

Jin Xiaomei is also afraid that this kid will behave like this every day when eating. This kind of problem cannot be solved by fighting. Moreover, this is his biological son after all, so you can’t give him a bad rap, right?

Therefore, Jin Xiaomei decided to take a step back and make some concessions if it really didn't work.

When Jin Xiaomei said this, Li Dayong stopped moving. He was very busy and tired throughout the day. He left early for work and returned late for work. When he got home, he had to spank his children every day. This...

Li Ruhai raised his face, looked at Jin Xiaomei, and then his eyes instantly moved to Jin Xiaomei's feet, landing on the pair of leather shoes.

Feeling Li Ruhai's gaze, Jin Xiaomei quietly took a step back.

They all came from hard times. When their living standards improve, they will inevitably show off and show off. Whether it's a little vanity or a love of face, it's all human nature.

The conditions of Lao Li's family are now good, and Jin Xiaomei's back was hardened when she returned to her parents' home a few days ago. But once she returned to Yongan Village, Jin Xiaomei was always with Wang Meilan.

Who can compare to Wang Meilan who wears gold and silver? Although Jin Xiaomei wouldn't say she was jealous, she was very envious in her heart.

But since arriving home the day before yesterday, Jin Xiaomei put on the small leather shoes Li Ruhai bought, and her whole self-confidence suddenly increased!

Although these leather shoes are not expensive, none of the women in Yong'an Village have them!

Even Wang Meilan didn't wear leather shoes!

In other words, in this regard, Jin Xiaomei is the leader among the women in Yong'an Tun!

Therefore, when Li Ruhai looked at the pair of leather shoes, Jin Xiaomei felt not very good.

"Mom!" Li Ruhai said, "You have to return the leather shoes and marmot hat I bought to me!"

Hearing this, Jin Xiaomei turned to look at Li Dayong, and then slightly tilted her chin towards Li Ruhai, meaning: Up!

Li Dayong also obeyed, and immediately put his right hand on the wrist of his left hand and rolled up his cuffs.

Seeing that something was not going well, Li Ruhai shouted at the top of his lungs: "You are beating me and asking for my things. You can't do anything I say!"

Hearing what Li Ruhai said, Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei were both startled.

Li Ruhai glanced at Li Dayong, saw that his father had not moved, then looked at Jin Xiaomei, and then said with a cry: "You either don't hit me, or if you want to hit me, don't take my things!"

In fact, Li Ruhai and Zhao Youcai both made mistakes and were taken advantage of, and they were both willing to spend money to eliminate the disaster.

After promising to give Wang Meilan four hundred yuan, Zhao Youcai was fine. But after being beaten, Li Ruhai even lost his leather shoes and marmot hat.

This was what Li Ruhai couldn't bear.

Nowadays, there is no way to get the beating back, so the leather shoes and the marmot hat must be returned!

That's why Li Ruhai was so good at dinner last night and breakfast today.

Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei looked at each other, but Li Dayong cast a questioning look at Jin Xiaomei.

Jin Xiaomei's eyes fell on the leather shoes she was wearing, and she felt a little reluctant to part with her. But with her youngest son like this, Jin Xiaomei would be lying if she said she didn't feel sorry for the child.

So, Jin Xiaomei sat sideways on the edge of the Kang, picked up her chopsticks and said to Li Ruhai, "Let's eat."

Hearing what Jin Xiaomei said, a smile suddenly appeared on Li Ruhai's face. He knew that since Jin Xiaomei said so, the new leather shoes and marmot hat would be returned to their original owners.

Li Ruhai couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought about the upcoming Winter Games swearing-in meeting at Yong'an Forest Farm.

…

At the same time, at Zhao Jun’s house.

Zhao Youcai was sitting on the Kang table, eating rice. On his right was Jie Chen, and to the outside was Zhao Jun; on his left was Zhao Na, and then Zhao Hong.

Perhaps because he was in a bad mood, Zhao Youcai's appetite was much smaller than usual.

Just after dinner, I heard the dogs barking in the yard. Wang Meilan, who was outside the house, looked outside and saw Zhang Yuanmin and his family of three coming.

That Zhang Yuanmin, not to mention how good he is at fighting the besieger, but looking at his outfit, he is indeed quite intimidating.

He was wearing a thin cotton-padded jacket made of light yellow material, with gray burlap outer trousers underneath. Because it rained the day before and was freezing yesterday, he wore boots on his feet.

The most important thing is that Zhang Yuanmin was carrying a long black cloth bag across his back, a No. 16 shotgun on his shoulder, and an assault knife on his waist. He was fully armed.

As soon as Zhang Yuanmin entered the house, he first said hello to Wang Meilan who was washing dishes in the outer room, and then he didn't go inside and directly shouted: "Brother, let's go!"

At this time, Zhao Jun came out of the back room and said to Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother, come in, don't be in a hurry!"

"What time is it?" Zhang Yuanmin said as he walked towards the west room, "Why aren't you in a hurry?"

"Didn't it rain the day before yesterday?" Zhao Jun said with a smile: "It was still freezing yesterday, so we have to wait for it to melt before going up."

In the past, Zhao Jun always told Li Baoyu and others that they learned about the mountain environment and the habits of wild animals through siege.

In fact, there is another point, which is the change of weather.

Normally, if you want to go into the mountains to hunt dogs, you have to go into the mountains just after six o'clock in the morning. If Zhao Jun and others had a car, they would have to leave home at seven o'clock.

But it rained and snowed the day before yesterday, and by evening it was freezing in the mountains, with a layer of ice forming on the slopes.

Yesterday was cloudy and the daytime temperature was below freezing. There is no temperature and no sunshine, so the layer of ice in the mountains is still there.

The temperature is rising today, and the maximum temperature during the day can reach three or four degrees above zero. The key is to have a sunny day.

In this way, the layer of ice on the mountain will melt away at eight or nine o'clock. At this time, it was time to go into the mountains to fight the siege.

Otherwise, if there is that layer of ice, people and hunting dogs will step on it, and it will make noise, and wild animals will run away early when they hear the noise, which is not conducive to encirclement.

Besides, don’t go too late.

If you go into the mountain after ten o'clock, not only will the ice on the sunny slopes melt, but even the leaves will be dry. In this way, the leaves are still ringing all over the sky, which is not conducive to hunting dogs.

So, rush up there at eight or nine o'clock. By this time the ice had melted, and the skin and leaves on the surface were all wet, making no sound even when hounds or people stepped on them. If the hunting dog goes all the way up the sunny slope, it can even touch the pigs.

After Zhao Jun explained, Zhang Yuanmin was very interested. He said to Zhao Jun with a smile: "Brother, what you just said is the book about astronomy and geography, right?"

"Ah?" Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this and said: "Brother, you just rub smoke powder on me, what can I know? What about astronomy and geography? Haha..."

"It's okay." Zhang Yuanmin waved his hand to Zhao Jun and said with a smile: "This time, your elder brother knows. I was a little lacking in this aspect. Today, after listening to you, brother, my brain suddenly became smarter."

"What?" Zhao Jun was startled. He couldn't understand what Zhang Yuanmin was talking about.

At this time, Zhang Yuanmin mysteriously waved to Zhao Jun and Jie Chen, indicating that they would lean their heads over and that he wanted to say something in private.

When the two of them came over, they heard Zhang Yuanmin say: "I've been reading a book recently, and I saw the formations of the Jie Jiao disciples in the book. They were so awesome! The Heavenly Jue Formation, the Fiery Flame Formation, etc., I didn't feel in vain after reading them. Look, I’ll think about it when I have nothing to do at home.”

Zhao Jun couldn't help but frowned when he heard this. This person can read the little book as a teaching material, so what kind of head does he have?

At this moment, Li Baoyu opened the door and came in. Seeing the three of them with their heads together, he hurriedly asked: "Brother, what are you studying?"

"Alas!" After Li Baoyu said this, Zhang Yuanmin sighed heavily.
