When Zhao Jun returned to the West Room, he immediately noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

"What's going on?" Zhao Jun asked Zhao Chun with a smile: "You haven't seen my brother-in-law for a week, why aren't you happy?"

Zhao Chun glared at Zhou Jianjun fiercely and rarely answered his brother's words.

At this time, Zhao Jun sat sideways on the edge of the Kang, and then said to Zhou Jianjun: "Brother-in-law, the wild boar behind the house is for you."

"Ah?" Zhou Jianjun was stunned when he heard this, but Zhao Jun said: "It's the end of the year, look at where the incense should be burned, and let's burn incense."

"Um..." Zhou Jianjun hesitated a little, but he was more embarrassed. He had borrowed his brother-in-law Guang from his brother-in-law a lot this year, and the wild boars and roe deer he gave as gifts were all brought to him by Zhao Jun.

Zhao Chun on the side listened to Zhao Jun's words and looked at Zhou Jianjun with an increasingly unkind look. Even now, Zhao Chun still can't figure out why Zhou Jianjun came here empty-handed.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Zhao Chun moved his legs apart and kicked Zhou Jianjun on the lower back.

"Ah ha!" It didn't hurt at all, but it shocked Zhou Jianjun suddenly.

Zhou Jianjun turned around and met Zhao Chun's sharp eyes, and did not dare to say a word for a while.

Zhao Jun smiled when he saw this, but did not laugh out loud. In his impression, the relationship between the eldest sister and the brother-in-law was quite good, and the couple would just talk and laugh about anything. Situations like this were rare.

Thinking, thinking, the smile on Zhao Jun's face froze. He suddenly remembered that on the day when he returned to his hometown in despair in his previous life, his eldest sister made dumplings at home and his brother-in-law went out to buy soy sauce. During dinner in the evening, his brother-in-law scolded him.

. But the brother-in-law mostly hates the fact that iron cannot become steel, saying that he lost such a good job and broke up such a good family.

It was said at that time that Zhao Jun was not angry, but was filled with emotion and bitterness. But just when Zhou Jianjun wanted to say a few more words under the influence of alcohol, he was kicked by Zhao Chun.

Thinking of that scene, Zhao Jun hurriedly hugged Zhou Jianjun and said to Zhao Chun: "Sister, why are you doing anything?"

When Zhao Jun said this, Zhao Chun couldn't help laughing. She glared at Zhou Jianjun sideways and curled her lips and said, "Look at him to make him angry."

Zhou Jianjun chuckled. He knew he was in the wrong and couldn't tell Zhao Jun why he was kicked.

"Brother-in-law, um... tomorrow we will go for a walk in the mountains. If we don't come back at noon, we will go early in the afternoon." Zhao Jun said to Zhou Jianjun: "When we come back, I will use Xiao Chen's car to take you home. That's it.

That wild boar will be loaded on the car for you, as well as the wild boar I shot the day before yesterday, Heixiazi, mom has left some meat for you, so I can load a bunch of them for you."

Hearing Zhao Jun's words, Zhou Jianjun didn't know what to say. Even brothers don't help like this. Besides, over the years, Zhou Jianjun has only seen his brother-in-law help his brother-in-law, but he has never seen his brother-in-law help his brother-in-law.

At this time, Zhao Chun kicked Zhou Jianjun on the lower back again, but this kick was lighter than the previous one.

I just heard Zhao Chun say: "You should thank my brother for giving you food and gifts this day."

"What are you talking about, sister?" Zhao Jun stretched out his hand to pull away Zhao Chun's foot from kicking Zhou Jianjun, and said with a smile: "Aren't we a family?"

"That's right!" Zhou Jianjun followed the words, hugged Zhao Jun and said to Zhao Chun, "Isn't this my brother too?"

After talking to Zhao Chun, Zhou Jianjun said to Zhao Jun: "Jun, it's up to you to see how my brother-in-law treats you in the future!"

Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this and believed Zhou Jianjun's words.

At this time, Zhou Jianjun saw a smile on Zhao Chun's face, climbed up the pole and said: "Chun'er, our brother will drive tomorrow, will you come back with me?"

Upon hearing Zhou Jianjun say he was going home, Zhao Chun's face suddenly darkened and he said angrily: "I won't go back!"

"This..." Zhou Jianjun wanted to persuade her again, but Zhao Jun said: "Brother-in-law, let my sister stay at home for a few more days."

Zhao Jun heard from Wang Meilan this morning that Zhao Chun still wanted to stay at home for a few days. He said that Zhao Chun was worried that if Ma Ling came in, she would cause trouble to her younger siblings if she returned to her parents' home as an eldest aunt.

In this regard, Zhao Jun felt that Zhao Chun was overly worried. But the eldest sister wanted to stay at home, and he supported it with both hands.

"This..." After being rejected by Zhao Chun and persuaded by Zhao Jun, Zhou Jianjun knew that his wife would not be able to take him back tomorrow.

But when Zhou Jianjun thought of his mother's earnest hope and the fifty yuan this morning, he bit the bullet and said to Zhao Chun: "Chun'er..."

"Okay!" Zhao Chun didn't give him a chance to speak at all. He immediately waved his hand and said: "Come back next Sunday. When it's over..."

At the end of the sentence, Zhao Chun did not finish the whole sentence, but clenched his fist and gently punched Zhou Jianjun on the back.

This time Zhou Jianjun understood that his wife wanted him to behave well when he came next Sunday.

…

November 29, 1987, Sunday.

Zhao Baotou, who was going to go hunting in the mountains today, woke up early, put a pot of dog food in his hand, and then fed all the dogs in the two yards.

Zhao Youcai fed the dogs and got close to them to communicate with them. He had quite a lot of dogs at home. By the time Zhao Youcai finished feeding the dogs, an hour had passed.

When Zhao Youcai came back from outside, everyone in the family was up except for two little girls and a little boy.

Wang Meilan stewed a pot of frozen tofu and potatoes, topped with a curtain full of sticky bean buns.

When Zhao Youcai entered the house, he saw Wang Meilan placing sticky bean bags on the curtain. He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Where are you putting the sticky bean bags?"

"My mother gave it to me," Wang Meilan replied. Seeing Zhao Youcai stunned, she gave him a wink.

"Ah..." Only then did Zhao Youcai realize that he now has two biological mothers, and the person Wang Meilan was talking about just now should be Ma Ling's mother.

"Yesterday I gave some meat to my in-laws." Wang Meilan said with a smile: "My mother had to bring me half a bag of sticky bean buns."

"Okay!" Zhao Youcai nodded when he heard the words and said: "This is just right to eat before going up the mountain to stave off hunger."

Wang Meilan looked at him and smiled, then put the lid on the pot and asked Zhao Youcai, "Can I make you a bowl of sugar water before you leave?"

As soon as Wang Meilan said this, Zhao Youcai suddenly recalled an unhappy past. He clicked his eyes and walked into the house, just in time to see Zhao Jun wandering underground holding Xiao Zhouxue.

"It will be very difficult for you to buy back that dog." What Zhao Youcai said shocked Zhao Jun. He hurriedly handed the child to Zhou Jianjun, and then walked out and said, "No, that little girl got home yesterday. She was so happy.

.”

"It's not Niuniu." Zhao Youcai stopped Zhao Jun and said, "If you buy back that green dog, it won't even be able to eat anymore."

Zhao Jun frowned when he heard that. To Northeastern people, whether it is a person or a domesticated animal, if it cannot be eaten, it means that it is choked.

"Could it be that we just got home?" Zhao Chun asked from the side.

"It's not like that." Zhao Youcai curled his lips, shook his head slightly and said, "It's not that it doesn't eat, it also eats, but not much."

After hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Zhao Jun stopped and did not go out.

…

Frozen tofu stewed with potatoes.

The authentic Northeastern marinated soybean tofu is naturally frozen outdoors, and the original white soybean tofu turns golden yellow.

Each piece of frozen tofu has honeycomb holes on it. After being stewed in an iron pot over firewood, the tofu is filled with soup, and you get a burst of soup when you bite it.

He put a bowl of vegetables and soup into the bowl, smashed the roasted chili peppers in the pit into the soup, and Zhao Youcai ate three large bowls in a row.

He also ate the staple food. When Zhao Youcai picked up the twelfth sticky bean bun, no one else was using chopsticks on the table.

"Then what..." Wang Meilan couldn't help but said: "Are you still eating?"

"Huh?" Zhao Youcai was startled, and then said angrily: "You won't let me eat this damn meal?"

"No, who can prevent you from eating it?" Wang Meilan said, "I'm afraid you will be injured."

Wang Meilan only ate three of these sticky bean buns, while Zhao Jun and Zhou Jianjun only ate six each.

"It's okay!" Zhao Youcai brought the sticky bean bun to his mouth and took a bite, then pulled open the rhubarb rice dough and took out the red bean filling inside.

"Haha..." Zhao Chun said with a smile: "My dad is such a good eater, even Jianjun and my brother can't eat him."

As soon as Zhao Chun finished speaking, several dogs barked outside the house, and Li Dayong and Li Baoyu, father and son, came over neatly dressed.

Zhao Youcai quickly ate the twelfth sticky bean bun, pushed the bowl, took out the cigarettes and distributed them to Li Dayong and Zhou Jianjun.

While several people were smoking, Wang Qiang, Lin Xiangshun, and Jie Chen came together.

Today is a holiday at the forest farm, and everyone is just idle at home. We go up the mountain together not to make money, but just for fun.

When they saw them all coming, Zhao Youcai, Zhao Jun, and Zhou Jianjun hurriedly put on their leggings.

That's right, Zhou Jianjun will also go for a walk today. Otherwise, he would have to wait until Zhao Jun comes back to see him off, so he might as well follow him for a walk up the mountain.

In this way, Zhao Jun, Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Wang Qiang, Lin Xiangshun, Zhou Jianjun, Li Baoyu, and Jie Chen were a group of eight people. Among them, the Zhao family and his son each carried a semi-automatic tree, Li Dayong carried Zhao Jun's No. 16 pipe hanging tree, and Wang Qiang carried him

With his own gun, the others came out of Zhao's house with their knives and hand axes.

There were so many people dressed up for hiking, and the hunting dogs in the yard immediately broke into camp.

The hunting dogs howled and jumped one by one in front of the kennel. The three red dogs in the big kennel looked like crazy when they saw the five dragons opposite.

Doubtful and a little scared.

As for Hua Niuniu, this little bitch had never hunted before, but when she saw the male dogs getting excited, Hua Niuniu smelled the scent that excited her, and immediately jumped out of the kennel and stood facing the flower dragon.

Then, Hua Niuniu's tail was raised high, her little butt was pointed up in the sky, her two front legs were leaning on the ground, and her two hind legs were kicking back against the soil.

Seeing Hua Niuniu like this, Hua Long, who had just joined the industry recently, immediately forgot about the excitement of hunting and couldn't help but approach Hua Niuniu.

But the next second, Hualong was grabbed by Zhao Jun.

After the iron chain was removed from his neck, Hualong jumped up to Hua Niuniu, stretched out his mouth and went to smell Hua Niuniu's butt.

"Go!" Zhao Youcai raised his leg to push Hualong away. Hualong wanted to attack again, but was forced back by Zhao Youcai's kick.

"Woof! Woof!" Hualong was very dissatisfied.

"Ouch! Ouch!" Hua Niuniu was even more dissatisfied.

"Is this bitch going to pick up the rice?" Zhao Youcai tilted his head and glanced behind Hua Niuniu's butt. Before Zhao Jun could say anything, Zhao Youcai waved his hand and said, "When you get back, tie this bitch to Erhei!
