Yang Shuqiu's words made Xie Zhong fall into silence. He knew that the old man meant that Zhang Yuanmin's current situation was a bit dangerous, and Zhang Yuanmin's family needed to make the decision at this time.
"Old Jiang!" Jie Zhong turned around and saw Jiang Jinyou. He called to him and said, "You drive the sledge, and we will take him to Lengchang."
Jie Zhong didn't listen to Yang Shuqiu and decided to save people first.
He called Liu Hanshan and Gu Yang to help, and several people wrapped Zhang Yuanmin in cotton jackets and carried him onto the sledge. Jiang Jinyou drove the horse, accompanied by Xie Zhong, Liu Hanshan, and Gu Yang, and left Lengchang and went straight to Yong'an Forest Farm.
Just as Zhang Yuanmin was breaking into Heixiongcang, Zhao Jun drove to Yongshengtun and parked his car next to Zhou Jianjun's house.
As soon as the car horn sounded, Hu Sanmei, who was cleaning the cabinets in the house, dropped the rag and ran out. At this time, Zhao Jun had entered the Xue family yard.
"Fourth brother! Fourth brother!" Zhao Jun shouted: "Is fourth brother at home?"
As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, the door of Xue's house was pushed open from the inside. Xue Zhongjie appeared at the door and shouted: "Brother, come in, come in!"
"We're not going in." Zhao Jun responded: "I'll get you a half-drawn pig. You come out and we can pull it down."
The cannon egg that Zhao Jun shot earlier was divided into two, and half of it was given to Zhang Lifu. Zhang Lifu later sent it to the forest farm canteen to pay back the money, and then lent the money to Zhao Youcai.
And this half was reserved for Xue Zhongjie. On that day, Zhao Jun promised Xue Zhongjie that after hunting wild boars, he would give Xue Zhongjie some wild boar meat.
Xue Zhongjie ran to Zhao Jun and went out of the hospital with Zhao Jun. At this time, he happened to bump into Hu Sanmei coming out of the house.
Not seeing Zhao Chun and her son, Hu Sanmei felt bad for a moment, but she didn't show it in person and still greeted Zhao Jun warmly.
Xue Zhongjie was extremely happy when he saw the two hundred kilograms of pork halves in the trunk.
"Brother." Xue Zhongjie said: "You gave too much."
"Brother, it's a festival." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "The one with more, give it to my uncle and make dumplings for the children."
"Okay, brother." Xue Zhongjie said gratefully: "Fourth brother, I won't be polite to you anymore. From now on, if I know where there are mountain animals, I'll tell you Xin'er, if you catch them, they'll be yours."
Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this and helped Xue Zhongjie drag the half-drawn wild boar into his house.
This wild boar meat was not skinned or deboned, so it had to be taken into the house and placed under the fire wall to let it cool down.
After helping Xue Zhongjie with his work, Zhao Jun declined the couple's invitation and walked out of Xue's house and into Zhou's house.
Before entering, Zhao Jun took a net bag from the carriage, which contained two carp and two crucian carp.
Zhao Jun entered the house carrying his net bag and saw that Hu Sanmei had already made sugar water for him.
"Mom." Zhao Jun picked up the net bag and said with a smile: "I brought the fish for you."
"Oh!" Hu Sanmei was a little surprised and said, "Where can you put all these fish?"
"We lowered the net yesterday." Zhao Jun put the fish in a basin for Hu Sanmei, and then walked into the house and said, "My mother said the fish was quite fresh, so she asked me to bring two to you."
Hu Sanmei did not mention the fish again, but handed the water cup to Zhao Jun, and then asked: "Did your brother-in-law leave it to your place to fish yesterday?"
There is nothing better than knowing a son like a mother.
At this time, Hu Sanmei knew that her son must be fishing, so he didn't come back yesterday.
"Yeah." Zhao Jun also helped Zhou Jianjun cover up and said, "We had guests at home yesterday and gave my brother-in-law too much to drink."
"Um..." Hu Sanmei thought for a moment, then asked: "Is it fine for your sister and the child to stay with you?"
"Very good." Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Why don't you make me a quilt today? Otherwise, my sister will come back."
"Ah..." After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Hu Sanmei nodded slightly. The old lady was not ignorant. It was reasonable for her daughter-in-law to make a wedding quilt for her brother.
Therefore, Hu Sanmei no longer thought about Zhao Chun not coming back.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door twice outside the house. Hu Sanmei asked, "Who is it?" The door opened and someone came in. It turned out to be Li Cuiying, Xue Zhongjie's daughter-in-law.
"Auntie, they gave you bonuses." Li Cuiying held a small basin in her hand and smiled at Hu Sanmei: "I'll take some time in the morning and give you some to try."
Huahong is a fruit that is similar in shape to an apple but much smaller than an apple.
This thing is not produced in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces, but in winter, red flowers, frozen pears, and frozen persimmons are shipped from the south to the northeast.
This small fruit comes frozen and can be eaten in the same way as frozen pears or frozen persimmons, by placing it in cold water to soften.
Zhao Jun got half a pig today. Xue Zhongjie and his wife finished their words of thanks, and the red fruit was also their deepest wish.
After Hu Sanmei saw off Li Cuiying, she came back and invited Zhao Jun to eat the red fruit.
Each fruit has a handle at the top. Zhao Jun twisted the handle, put the fruit into his mouth, closed his mouth and took a sip, then put the peel and pulp into his mouth, and then pulled the core out of his mouth by the handle.
The soft red fruit has a soft skin and turns into a soup. It tastes sour and sweet with a hint of coolness. It feels good to eat it while sitting on the fire pit.
Zhao Jun ate six in a row. Seeing that he liked it, Hu Sanmei pointed out the window and said: "My child, there is half a bag of this stuff in the big tank outside. If you want to eat it, you can take it all away in a while. We don't have it either."
People eat it.”
"No need, aunt." Zhao Jun waved his hand and said, "I can just eat two. I don't usually eat these things."
"Take it back to Xiaohong and Xiaona to eat." Hu Sanmei said, "Little girls are happy to eat this stuff."
Speaking of this, Hu Sanmei suddenly remembered something and said to Zhao Jun: "The day before yesterday, your brother-in-law left home for a walk in the morning. I also told him to let him go home and buy some apples for the two sisters.
.”
"Ah, haha." Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this and said, "Auntie, we all have our own family, so we don't need to buy anything?"
"Huh?" Hu Sanmei was stunned. She got some information from Zhao Jun's words. If Zhou Jianjun bought apples, Zhao Jun would not say that. And even if Zhou Jianjun did not buy apples but bought other things, Zhao Jun would not
so.
Last time it was fifty, this time it was fifty. Hu Sanmei gave Zhou Jianjun a hundred yuan two weeks ago, but he went to his in-laws and bought nothing. Hu Sanmei felt a little angry.
Coupled with the fact that her daughter-in-law and grandson did not come back, Hu Sanmei immediately made a decision.
"Jun!" Hu Sanmei looked at Zhao Jun, pushed the small basin of red fruits in front of Zhao Jun, and motioned for Zhao Jun to continue eating. Then Hu Sanmei said: "What did you do with the stuff?"
"We haven't started yet." Zhao Jun picked up a small fruit, brought it to his mouth, sipped it, and said with a smile, "Isn't it just starting today?"
"Well, that's just right." Hu Sanmei moved her legs up, sat cross-legged and said, "I'll follow you later, I'll help you do it."
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was startled and then heard Hu Sanmei say: "Didn't my aunt say that when you come that time, your sister and I will go when you are in bed?"
"Yeah..." Zhao Jun remembered that this was indeed the case, but once Hu Sanmei left, wouldn't there be no one in the house?
"Auntie." Zhao Jun asked hurriedly: "What will happen when my brother-in-law comes back at night?"
"Don't worry about him." Hu Sanmei waved her hand aside and said, "I'll be back in two days, and he won't starve to death."
From Hu Sanmei's point of view, four pairs of Zhao Jun's wedding couples were quilted. Even without the help of others, she and Zhao Chun would have been busy in three days. What Hu Sanmei thought was that after finishing making Zhao Jun's quilt,
Take Zhao Chun and Zhou Wen home immediately.
Thinking of this, Hu Sanmei asked Zhao Jun: "Jun, aunty, I can't cause you any trouble, can I?"
"Auntie, what are you talking about?" Zhao Jun said hurriedly: "It would be great if you could help me with my work."
As he spoke, Zhao Jun showed a smile on his face and said, "Auntie, shall we leave now?"
"Wait for me to clean up, clean up." Hu Sanmei said and got off the kang, went outside and dug out half a bag of frozen red fruits from the tank, and then went to the warehouse to get a few kilograms of wild dried pears, fungus and hairtail fish.
"Auntie, look what you are doing with something," Zhao Jun said.
"Take it for us all to eat." Hu Sanmei thought of the fish that Zhao Jun had just brought, so she picked up the fishnet and said to Zhao Jun: "Take it back here too."
"Auntie, that's for you." Zhao Jun said, "If you don't want to eat it in the past two days, you can leave it outside to freeze."
"Your brother-in-law has been doing these things every day for the whole spring and eight summers." Hu Sanmei waved her hand and said, "Don't talk about eating, I have already cleaned up enough."
After saying that, Hu Sanmei once again handed the net bag to Zhao Jun and said: "We are all members of our own family, take it."
"Auntie." Zhao Jun took the net bag and thought for a while, then said to Hu Sanmei: "This fish... you don't want it, I want to give it to my brother Zhou."
"Where is Zhou Chengguo?" Hu Sanmei asked. Seeing Zhao Jun nod, Hu Sanmei glanced at the net bag and said to him: "My child, listen to my aunt, you give two to Chengguo, and then give two to the village elder Qi's family.
strip."
Zhao Jun knew as soon as he heard that Hu Sanmei was letting him make friends. Although the village chief was not a high-ranking official, he responded to every call in the village. As the chief of Yongsheng Village, Qi Shengli was definitely a figure in these eight villages.
"Auntie." Zhao Jun smiled bitterly and said, "We are inferior. Usually I can't talk to people."
"That's what I'm afraid of." Hu Sanmei said, "Auntie will take you there. When you get home, you put the fish down, say a few words and we'll leave."
"That's okay." Hearing what Hu Sanmei said, Zhao Jun accepted her kindness. The two of them came out of the house with a big bag and a small bag. When they got in the car, they happened to meet Xue Wanyou who was returning home.
"Sister-in-law." Xue Wanyou shouted to Hu Sanmei from afar: "What are you going to do?"
"Go to Yong'an." Hu Sanmei gestured towards Zhao Jun and said: "This kid will get married after the Chinese New Year. I will make him a quilt."
"Zhao Jun."
"Uncle Xue."
Zhao Jun and Xue Wanyou greeted each other, and Xue Wanyou asked Hu Sanmei: "How will the family be organized after you leave?"
"The house is just like this." In order to see her grandson, Hu Sanmei did not care about anything. She said to Xue Wanyou: "You have time, just take a look at it. I will be back in two days."
"Does Jianjun know?" Xue Wanyou asked again, but Hu Sanmei said: "If you see him at night, tell him that if I don't come back tomorrow, I will come back the day after tomorrow."
After hearing what Hu Sanmei said, Xue Wanyou stopped asking any more questions. Hu Sanmei got into the passenger seat and Zhao Jun drove straight to Zhou Chengguo.
Sister-in-law Zhou was still so enthusiastic when she saw Zhao Jun. She wanted to stay with Zhao Jun for dinner, but Zhao Jun declined again.
When handing a carp and a crucian carp to Mrs. Zhou, Zhao Jun said to her: "Sister-in-law, my brother ordered the half-drawn pig from Ruhai, so you don't need to worry about it. I will deliver it to you before New Year's Day."
Zhao Jun had said this to Zhou Chengguo before. At this time, he told Mrs. Zhou personally, and Mrs. Zhou was very moved. After seeing off Zhao Jun and Hu Sanmei, she waited for the car to disappear from her sight, and then
Then he turned around and went back to the house.
The next stop was the home of the village commander Qi Shengli. Zhao Jun parked his car outside the courtyard of Qi's home, got out of the car with the fish in hand and followed Hu Sanmei inside.
Hu Sanmei, who was familiar with Lao Qi's family, went to the door and patted it twice, then pulled the door open and shouted inside: "Auntie."
Qi Shengli's wife is still alive and well in her seventies this year. The old lady and Qi Shengli's wife are both pretty good to Hu Sanmei.
At this time, in the west room of Qi Shengli's house, plates, bowls and chopsticks were still placed on the kang. Qi Shengli was sitting at the table with the guests, while Zheng Xuekun and Zheng Donghai, father and son, were eating.
Logically speaking, it was already past nine o'clock, and everyone should have finished their meal by this time. However, the Zheng family and his son stayed in Tunbu last night. When Qi Shengli passed by this morning, they were seen eating cold water and eating the leftover dry food from yesterday.
, I felt a little intolerable.
So, Qi Shengli took them home and asked his wife to give them a hot mouthful.
With radish soup and steamed buns with noodles, Zheng Donghai ate five steamed buns by himself, and he is still drinking the soup on the table.
Hearing that Hu Sanmei was coming, Qi Shengli's daughter-in-law, Sun Yufen, came out of the east room, and Qi Shengli came out of the west room.
In the east room, Qi Shengli's mother even shouted: "Third daughter, are you here?"
"Here you go, Auntie." Hu Sanmei responded, then reached back and grabbed Zhao Jun and said, "Give me the fish, Auntie Qi."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "This is..." Looking at Zhao Jun, Sun Yufen did not dare to recognize him. At this time, Qi Shengli introduced to her: "This is Zhao Jun."
As soon as Qi Shengli said these words, he heard a banging sound coming from the west room. It was the sound of the rice bowl falling on the kang table and the bottom of the bowl hitting the kang table left and right.
"Ah?" Hu Sanmei glanced into the inner room and asked Sun Yufen with a smile: "Is the boy back?"
"No." Qi Shengli said, "We have two guests at home."
"Then we won't go into the house." Upon hearing that there were guests, Hu Sanmei quickly lowered her voice and whispered: "Zhao Jun caught some fish yesterday, and he came over today. I said I will give you Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi two fishes."
Bar."
"Oh, thank you!" Qi Shengli smiled and hugged Zhao Jun. When Sun Yufen took the fish from Zhao Jun's hand, she hurriedly said to Hu Sanmei: "Sister-in-law, you and Zhao Jun go into the house..."
At this point, Sun Yufen pressed her face to Hu Sanmei, covered her mouth with one hand and whispered: "The two guys who are here to collect mountain goods will leave in a moment."
"Huh?" Sun Yufen's voice was very low. Zheng Xuekun and Zheng Donghai in the room couldn't hear it, but Zhao Jun next to Hu Sanmei could hear it clearly.
Yesterday, Zhao Jun led the Zheng family and his son home from Dongdagou. Unexpectedly, they ran away, which made Zhao Jun's trip in vain.
In Zhao Jun's opinion, these two old boys are not particular. You can leave if you want, and you can leave if you don't want to take our things, but why do you have to tell me? They are already at the door of the house, and you two can run away on your bike.
,Aren’t you kidding me?
"Uncle Qi." Zhao Jun raised his head slightly, tapped his chin towards the door of Zheng's west room, and then asked Qi Shengli in a low voice: "Are these two people named Zheng?"
"Yes." Qi Shengli looked at Zhao Jun and asked in surprise: "How do you know?"
"Uncle Qi." Zhao Jun did not answer Qi Shengli's words, but raised his hand to gesture towards the west room and said, "Can I meet them?"
