The whole mountain is my hunting ground

At this time, the cost of food and clothing in the forest area was far less than that in the city. For some people in the forest area, they may have never seen Western clothes.

Forestry farm leaders and village cadres, for example, only wear Chinese tunic suits when attending formal occasions at work.

There are also young couples getting married, and the woman makes clothes for the groom, usually buying wool to make a Chinese tunic suit.

Brothers Li Baoyu and Li Ruhai work in a forest farm, which has newspapers and publications. Although these items have long expired when they are delivered to the forestry, they can also allow forestry workers to understand some of the conditions outside.

The Li family has always been a "farming and reading family".

Li Baoyu and Li Ruhai both liked to read those newspapers and periodicals. The two brothers looked at the illustrations in the newspapers and saw the well-dressed suits of foreign businessmen and foreign guests. Li Baoyu once told Li Ruhai that when he got married, the old Liu family would give him Make a tunic suit, and then he has to spend money to make another suit for himself.

At that time, Li Ruhai hugged his brother's arm and said, "Brother, bring one for me when you do it. I don't have a big lump like yours, so I can save materials."

After Li Ruhai finished speaking, Li Baoyu ruthlessly told him to get lost.

When Li Ruhai asked him to help buy wool to make clothes, Li Baoyu immediately understood what was going on.

Although Li Baoyu's attitude today was not as rough as that day, he still rejected Li Ruhai.

But seeing Li Ruhai turning away angrily, Li Baoyu couldn't help but sigh. He knew that if he didn't agree to Li Ruhai, this kid would have to tell the "Legend of Xiao Bajie" written by himself at the Winter Games Gala.

"What a fool you are..." Li Baoyu twitched the corner of his mouth and said angrily: "After buying the materials, who can make it for you? Tailor Feng of Yongsheng, I guess he doesn't even know what a suit looks like."

As soon as Li Baoyu finished speaking, Li Ruhai sat up, reached for the kang cabinet, opened the door that belonged to him, leaned over and rummaged inside for a while, then took out a small book and handed it to Li Baoyu.

"What is this..." Li Baoyu couldn't help frowning after taking a look. He could see pieces of cut newspapers sandwiched in the middle of the small book.

"Oh my god!" Li Baoyu exclaimed, "Did you cut the newspaper?"

"Brother-in-law Zhou said it's okay." Li Ruhai took the notebook back from Li Baoyu and opened the page to see several photos of Carter's visit.

Carter had never been to China when he was in power. But after he got down, he kept running to China.

This picture is of Carter shaking hands with the eldest son of the Deng family when he came to China in June 1987. The seven or eight people in the photo are all wearing suits, ties, and big leather shoes.

Li Ruhai pointed his finger at the people in the illustration and said, "Show this to Tailor Feng. He promises to make it."

After saying that, Li Ruhai looked up at Li Baoyu, who was sitting a head taller than him.

Li Baoyu twitched the corners of his mouth, looked at each other and said, "Why don't I do it for you?"

As soon as Li Baoyu said this, Li Ruhai pursed his lips, biting his lower lip with his upper teeth, and his cheeks bulged.

"Huh?" Li Baoyu saw this and said hurriedly: "What? Are you going to cry? I'm telling you, if you call Sa Huan'er this late at night, I'll pull my legs and throw her out for you."

After Li Baoyu finished speaking, he saw that Li Ruhai still looked like that, so he asked angrily: "What are you thinking?"

"My mouth is scratching!" Li Ruhai finally spoke, but as soon as he spoke, Li Baoyu felt that his four words were full of threats.

At this time, Li Ruhai said again: "Tomorrow at noon I will go to the second cafeteria first, and then I will go to the first cafeteria after that. I will give them..."

"Okay!" Li Baoyu closed the work manual, interrupted Li Ruhai directly, and then said: "Go to bed quickly, I will go to Yongsheng at some time, talk to Tailor Feng, and just leave him to buy wool. Let him make a suit for both of us."

"Then I have to go with you!" Li Ruhai smiled brightly when he heard Li Baoyu agreed. He placed his hands on the seam between his shoulders and slid down both sides of his body. He gestured while saying: "See and then give it to me." Make a little waistcoat, I see them wearing something like that."

"Ha!" Li Baoyu heard this and laughed: "You mountain cannon, that's called a vest, and you also have a waistcoat..."

…

Early the next morning, Zhao Jun and Zhang Yuanmin got up at half past four. When they got up, Song Lan was already kneading a large amount of noodles and steamed buns in the outer room.

After the pickled cabbage soup and steamed buns were served, and Zhao Jun had just sat down on the kang, Jie Chen came back.

When everyone saw him coming back, they didn't even bother to eat. Before they could let Jie Chen into the room, they heard Song Lan ask: "Brother, how are you, Brother Chen?"

"It's not bad." Jie Chen said, "My life was saved. I woke up for a while in the morning. He was noisy and in pain. The doctor went over and gave him an injection. After that, he gave him some medicine and he fell asleep."

"Okay!" After hearing what Jie Chen said, Huang Gui nodded slightly and said, "As long as you can save your life!"

After saying that, he invited Jiechen into the house for dinner, and asked Guofu to go to Jiang Weifeng's house to tell Huang Yan the good news.

After several people got on the kang and sat down around the kang table, Song Lan came in from the outhouse carrying a large basin of pickled cabbage soup, followed by Huang Minqiang who was carrying the bowl.

Sauerkraut soup is very simple, just cut the sauerkraut leaves into thin strips with a razor blade, then heat the oil in a pot, simmer the chopped green onions, then put the cut sauerkraut into the pot and stir-fry.

Sauerkraut needs oil. If possible, add more oil. When the sauerkraut is slightly dry, add water to make soup.

The soup is stewed below, and the dry food is steamed in a curtain drawer above. The steam is ten to fifteen minutes, and the dry food and soup are cooked together.

Even though this pickled cabbage soup is simple, it tastes exquisite.

When making soup, burn the dried chili peppers dried in autumn in front of the stove pit.

When the pickled cabbage soup is put into a bowl and placed in front of the diners, the diners themselves break up the roasted dried chili peppers and add them to the soup.

After the dried chilies are roasted and burnt, break them into pieces. And this crushed chili is fragrant and crispy even when soaked in soup.

At this time, take a sip of the hot pickled cabbage soup. The soup is sour and spicy at first. As you drink the soup slowly, you can taste the slightest saltiness in the soup.

Then put the chopsticks in the bowl and pick up a piece of dried chili, wrap it in pickled cabbage and put it in your mouth, along with a mouthful of dry food. Whether it is white flour steamed buns or large pancakes, they are all so fragrant.

Song Lan put the basin of pickled cabbage soup on the edge of the kang, while Huang Minqiang also put a pile of bowls on the kang table.

Song Lan raised his hand and took down the top bowl. He took the bowl in his left hand and the spoon in his right hand. He filled a bowl with vegetables and soup and sent it to Zhang Yuanmin first.

Zhang Yuanmin took the soup, put the bowl in front of him, then took the roasted dried chili pepper, holding the stem of the chili pepper with his left hand, and breaking it off from the tip of the chili pepper with his right hand.

Song Lan continued to serve soup. Her second bowl of soup was for Zhao Jun, but when she served it to Zhao Jun, it was different from serving Zhang Yuanmin.

Song Lan stirred the spoon into the basin, and what was served was filled with vegetables, leaving Zhao Jun's bowl with more vegetables and less soup.

When handing the bowl to Zhao Jun, Song Lan said with a smile: "Brother, you eat more vegetables and less soup. Why don't you read the cards with them for a while, and it's time to go to the toilet halfway."

Zhao Jun: "..."

Okay, Song Lan had good intentions, so Zhao Jun didn't say anything and silently took the bowl and started breaking the chili peppers.

At the same time, Zhao Youcai, who was far away in the Yongxing Brigade, drank all the pickled cabbage soup at the bottom of the bowl, then put the bowl down with his left hand, put down the chopsticks with his right hand, touched his stomach, and smiled at Li Wencai: "Uncle Li. , this pickled cabbage soup is so hot and refreshing."

"Are you full?" Li Wencai smiled and said, "You have to eat more if you go up the mountain, otherwise you will be hungry halfway through."

"Well, I haven't eaten less." Zhao Youcai said: "I can't pretend to you. We are running around in the mountains, and this meal in the morning is the most important. If you eat well, you can survive until eleven or twelve o'clock in the morning. Otherwise, you’ll be hungry at ninety o’clock.”

"That's okay." Li Wencai said, "I'll steam those two-faced steamed buns, and you two will get some more later, so you don't go hungry at noon."

"Hey!" Zhao Youcai agreed and went down to the kang. At this time, there were two semi-automatic rifles lying across the edge of the kang.

Either way, Tao Dabao really does his job!

This morning, Tao Dabao sent Zhao Youcai a gun without even waiting for Zhao Youcai to come over. He even got two semi-automatic rifles and four packs of bullets.

The bullets wrapped in brown paper are five horizontally and five vertically. One pack is twenty-five rounds, and four packs are a hundred rounds.

When Tao Dabao came to deliver the gun, he even exchanged a few words with Zhao Youcai and Li Wencai. After Tao Dabao left, looking at Zhao Youcai who was smiling, Li Wencai said from the side: "Youcai, your boy is really honorable."

"Huh?" Zhao Youcai was startled when he heard this, thinking why did he mention that boy again?

Li Wencai pointed at the gun in Zhao Youcai's hand and said, "In all these years since Director Tao came back, the only outsiders who can make our brigade use guns are you two!"

These words were indeed good words, but Zhao Youcai felt something was wrong after hearing this. He should be the father protecting his son.

Didn’t they all say that thirty years ago, they respected their father and their sons, and thirty years later, they respected their sons and their fathers. My son is only in his early twenties, so he travels all over the world just relying on his son's reputation?

This couldn't help but make Zhao Youcai hold back his energy, thinking that he must create greater glory again and find Zhao Pao, the flower dog who roared in the mountains and forests back then!

With this belief in mind, Zhao Youcai, who had eaten and drank enough, sat on the edge of the kang and put on his leggings silently. Then he took the invasion knife from the old kangqin beside him and put it behind his back.

When Li Wencai handed over the dry food, Zhao Youcai took it and handed it to Wang Dalong to load. After the two of them carried the Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, Zhao Youcai went out of the house with Wang Dalong at Li Wencai's instructions and let go of the eight hunting dogs. , taking them straight to the southwest.

Today's dog siege, according to the agreement, Zhao Youcai has to bring the Qin brothers with him. The guest house is in Team 1, and the Qin brothers are in Team 7. It takes more than 20 minutes to walk from the guest house, and it takes nearly half an hour to reach Team 7.

If you bring a dog, it will take longer, estimated to be about forty minutes.

So they made an appointment, and Zhao Youcai and Wang Dalong set off on time with their dogs at half past six. Qin Dong and Qin Bei will arrive at the roadside at seven o'clock, waiting for Zhao Youcai and Wang Dalong to come and meet.

When Zhao Youcai and Wang Dalong were approaching the entrance and exit of Team 7, they saw two people standing in front of them from a distance.

Zhao Youcai frowned, squinted his eyes and muttered, "Who is that?"

Among those two people, one was Qin Bei, but the other was not Qin Dong.

This man is 1.8 meters tall, but he has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.

At this time, the green dragon and black dog who were leading the way had arrived in front of Qin Bei. The two dogs circled around Qin Bei and the man, and then both returned to Zhao Youcai.

When Zhao Youcai approached, Qin Bei came with the man and introduced him to Zhao Youcai: "Uncle Zhao, this is my brother-in-law Li Mingxiang."

After speaking, Qin Bei pointed to Zhao Youcai and Wang Dalong successively and introduced to Li Mingxiang: "This is Uncle Zhao, and this is Brother Wang."

"Uncle Zhao." Li Mingxiang took off his handbag, shook hands with Zhao Youcai, then extended his hand to Wang Dalong and said, "Brother Wang."

"Hey, Brother Li." Wang Dalong held Li Mingxiang's hand, looked at Qin Bei and said, "Brother Qin, Brother Li is your brother-in-law, so he is my uncle Li's eldest nephew?"

This life was a bit chaotic. Zhao Youcai on the side didn't care about it, but he thought that the Li Ming in front of him should be the Li Mouse, his little bitch, who Wang Dalong was eyeing.

"Yes!" Qin Bei nodded and said with a smile: "My eldest brother had some work at home today. He couldn't come. After that, he was worried that Uncle Zhao would be hunting wild boars or something and no one would pull him away, so he summoned my brother-in-law. .”

Zhao Youcai didn't think much about it. He just thought that there was something wrong with Qin Dong's family, and he called Li Mingxiang here to take advantage of Qin Dong's share of the meat.

Therefore, Zhao Youcai didn't have any extra words, he just asked a few people to hurry up. After all, they didn’t have a car and had to walk the more than ten miles of mountain road.

At this time, Qin Dong, who had something to do at home, came to a house to the south of his home.

Qin Dong went straight into the courtyard without calling anyone when he arrived at the gate. As he entered the courtyard and walked inside, he heard movement near the west wall.

I saw the warehouse door over there was open. Qin Dong quietly went over, leaned on the warehouse door and looked in. He saw a woman closing the cabinet door.

These days, every household has a warehouse, and in the warehouse there are cabinets nailed with wooden boards, and there are doors in the cabinets to store rice, flour and grain. Otherwise, when a fire is lit in winter, the floor of the outhouse will be too hot, and it will be easy to store too much food.

However, when storing food in warehouses, the doors of the cabinets must be kept tightly closed for fear of attracting rats and sparrows.

When this woman closed the cabinet door, her back was turned to Qin Dong. She was tall, about 1.7 meters tall, with two long legs and straight legs. She wore an embroidered cotton-padded jacket on her upper body. She was really decent and well-fitting, and could not hide it at all. Her graceful figure.

The woman clicked the door nose, and when she was hanging up the lock, Qin Dong had already slipped behind her, reached out and slapped the bulge above her leg.

"Snapped!"

"Oh my god!" Qin Dong was so sudden that the blow definitely didn't hurt, but it frightened the woman, who immediately turned pale and turned around in a hurry.

The woman turned around and saw that it was Qin Dong. She threw her hands and hit him. While hitting him, she cursed: "I'm so jealous of you. You scared me to death."

"Hahaha..." Qin Dong didn't hide or fight back. He stood there and let the woman beat him, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't flirt with me. Wow, it's so good if you flirt with me."

"Go away!" The woman's face changed, and she lowered her voice and said, "Don't say anything, the child is at home."

"Ah!" When Qin Dong heard this, he quickly whispered: "Ah, the child is not in school?"

"What time is it?" The woman replied angrily at first, then her face softened and she whispered: "You can come back later."

"I'm not coming today." Qin Dong said, "Don't you have something serious to do today?"

"You have something serious to say." The woman rolled her eyes at Qin Dong and said, "You asked me to cheat on you again."

"Sister." Qin Dong approached the woman and said, "Let's take care of this person today. From now on, your family will not be short of meat."
