After leaving Xu Changlin's house, Zhao Jun ran back home.
Turning to the right, he saw that the second house was his house. A man suddenly jumped out from behind the pile of firewood next to him, startling Zhao Jun unexpectedly.
"Ouch... my mom!" Zhao Jun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was Wang Meilan and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Waiting for you!" Wang Meilan quickly walked to Zhao Jun's side, held Zhao Jun's arms with both hands, and pushed Zhao Jun forward while asking: "What did Old Xu Pao say?"
"He didn't say anything." Zhao Jun said, "I went there to say a few words, but I felt like he might not know."
This is true. Just now at Lao Xu's house, when the old man mentioned borrowing knives, it was Mrs. Xu who spoke to him.
"Then what should we do?" Wang Meilan's face suddenly collapsed. She felt that the little goldfish, the big goldfish, the gold thorn, and the gold bracelet were moving away from her.
"Mom, it's okay." Zhao Jun leaned into Wang Meilan's ear and whispered: "Old Xu Pao gave me a clue."
"Huh?" When Wang Meilan heard this, her slumped face lifted up instantly. At the same time, her eyes lit up, and she felt that the little goldfish, the big goldfish, the gold bullion, and the gold bracelet were back again!
"I will go up the mountain in a moment." Zhao Jun said, "I will go to Lengchang, my eldest brother, to find the third uncle. He knows the old man."
"Ah!" Wang Meilan's eyes brightened even more. Although she had never met Xing San, she knew that the old man was not an outsider.
It's easier to do things if you have your own people.
While the two of them were talking, when they arrived at the door of the house, Wang Meilan patted Zhao Jun and said, "Son, mom steamed those buns this morning. You can take them to the old man."
After saying that, Wang Meilan started to run into the house.
Zhao Jun saw this and smiled lightly.
But at this moment, Wang Meilan paused and stopped abruptly. Then, Wang Meilan turned back to Zhao Jun and said, "Son, Mom wants to tell you something."
Seeing Wang Meilan's serious face, Zhao Jun couldn't help but be startled, and then asked: "What's wrong, Mom?"
"Um...your dad." Wang Meilan said, "Your dad has a lot of things that he needs to take care of."
Wang Meilan wanted to tell Zhao Jun about helping Zhao Youcai catch wild boars early in the morning, but when she was making buns in the morning, Zhao Jun asked her about lending money to the old man.
Since gold and treasure were involved, Wang Meilan forgot about Zhao Youcai.
When she said this, Zhao Jun subconsciously asked: "What else did he beat?"
Or rather, they are two mothers. When Zhao Youcai told Wang Meilan last night, Wang Meilan had the same reaction.
"No, no." Seeing that Zhao Jun had misunderstood, Wang Meilan waved her hands and said, "Can you still beat other people's animals?"
After saying this, Wang Meilan clicked her eyes, clicked her eyes. The last time Zhao Youcai slaughtered a cow was on November 12th. It was just over a month ago, and he slaughtered an old cow again.
"Ah, what's the matter with my dad?" Zhao Jun asked, and Wang Meilan replied: "He promised to catch wild boars for others, isn't this a series of incidents? Your dad said that he will never go up the mountain again, but on the other side
I'm waiting for a wild boar to give as a gift, this..."
When Zhao Jun heard this, he twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but said: "He might as well kill someone else's cow. This is more troublesome than paying someone else money."
Zhao Jun didn't even need to ask, he knew that the gift must be given before New Year's Day. But today is the 23rd, and the Gregorian New Year is about to pass. He already owes Xu Baoshan Wild Boar, so he has to help Zhao Youcai with the task.
"Son." Wang Meilan gave Zhao Jun a tug and said, "This is not about losing money, this is about making money."
With that said, Wang Meilan pointed to the mountains in the distance and continued to say to Zhao Jun: "That wild boar... isn't there on the mountain? Just catch it."
Zhao Jun was speechless, but at this moment, he heard someone shouting: "Sister! Great nephew."
"Hey! Qiangzi!" Seeing that her brother was coming, Wang Meilan hurriedly waved to call Wang Qiang over.
"Uncle." Zhao Jun also said hello to Wang Qiang. At this time, Wang Qiang was carrying a gun and came to find Zhao Jun and the others to go up the mountain.
"Sister." Seeing Wang Meilan's mysterious look, Wang Qiang asked with a smile: "What are you two doing?"
"Qiangzi, let me tell you, our father..." Just as Wang Meilan was about to speak, she heard Zhao Jun say intentionally or unintentionally: "The minister is here!"
Wang Meilan looked to the east and saw her minister trotting over.
Jie Chen came to greet the three of them, but Wang Meilan swallowed her words as soon as they came to her lips.
After entering the house and packing up, Zhao Jun, Wang Qiang, Jie Chen, and Zhao Weipeng walked out of the house and prepared to go up the mountain to fight the siege.
Seeing that all four of them were carrying guns, the dogs in Zhao's courtyard instantly became a mess, each one pulling on the chain and howling.
"Young minister, let the dogs go!" Zhao Jun waved to Jie Chen, and then Li Baoyu walked out of the next door. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "Brother, Xiaohua and Niuniu, I will let you go."
"Let go." Zhao Jun said, "You let those three dogs go, too. I will lead them all!"
"Those three dogs?" Li Baoyu was stunned when he heard this. He knew that Zhao Jun was talking about the three dogs sent back by the Yongxing Brigade.
Li Baoyu glanced at the row of dog kennels under the east wall of his house, and saw that there were two dogs and three dogs standing outside the kennels. They were also hunting dogs, and they were all howling and wanting to go up the mountain.
But Li Baoyu did not let the dogs go, but climbed over the wall, walked to Zhao Jun, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, aren't those three dogs my uncle's dogs?"
"It's ours." Zhao Jun smiled, waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and release the dog for me."
Zhao Youcai said it himself that he would never hunt again.
Moreover, Zhao Jun is now helping him. The job of catching wild boars will definitely not be possible without dogs. After the four dogs, Dahuang and Big Fat, are missing, Zhao's dog gang helps the dogs find the prey.
"It's your order!" After hearing Zhao Jun's words, Li Baoyu jumped over the wall happily and let go of the five dogs in the front and back yards of the house.
Immediately afterwards, inside and outside the courtyards of the Zhao and Li families, a group of dogs that had just been restrained were running around, chasing, fighting, and urinating everywhere.
Hearing the movement outside the house, Zhao Youcai, who was sitting on the kang, glanced out the window, and then let out a long sigh: "Alas!"
Zhao Youcai felt very tired. Seeing Zhao Jun and the others taking their dogs up the mountain, Zhao Youcai felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't want to go up the mountain from the bottom of his heart.

After all the hunting dogs were loaded into the car, Jie Chen drove, and Zhao Weipeng, who was generous and fat, took the passenger seat. Zhao Jun and Wang Qiang were accompanying the dogs in the trunk, and the uncle and nephew happened to say
some words.
When the car left Zhao's house, it was not in a hurry to leave the village, but went to Zhang Yuanmin's house first.
After arriving at Zhang Yuanmin's house, Zhao Jun got out of the car alone. After opening the door with the key he took from Wang Meilan, Zhao Jun went directly into the east room of Zhang's family.
There are two corners in the kang, and many people will nail two wooden boards diagonally across the corners to make a simple quilt stacking rack.
Get up every day, fold the bedding and put it on the shelf, and then pull up the curtain to prevent the bedding from getting dusty.
Zhang Yuanmin's home is different from other homes. In other people's homes, there are stacks on each side of the room. However, in the two corners of the Kang room in the east room of Zhang Yuanmin's home, there are stacks on each side of the wall, and the curtains are also drawn.
Zhao Jun climbed onto the kang and first opened the curtain at the southeast corner. Seeing that the piles on the shelf were bedding, Zhao Jun closed the curtain again.
Then, Zhao Jun went to the southwest corner, opened the curtain, and saw a long black cloth bag standing diagonally on the quilt rack.
This long black cloth bag is longer than the stacking frame, so one end is leaning against the wall.
If you don’t know, you might think that the Zhang family is offering some kind of treasure.
Zhao Jun stretched out his hand to grab the long black cloth bag and sank it in his hand. According to what the little bell said, this was the pig hook that Zhang Yuanmin planned to pass on to future generations.
Zhao Jun dragged the long black cloth bag to the edge of the kang and opened the bag. Touching the cold steel hook, Zhao Jun sighed softly and murmured to himself: "I really miss my elder brother a little bit."
After a brief moment of seeing things and thinking about people, Zhao Jun carried the tied pig out of the door.
Seeing Zhao Jun come out with a big iron hook, Zhao Weipeng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, called out to the judge: "Minister, what did your brother Jun have?"
Jie Chen, who had recently started watching "The Romance of the Gods", smiled and replied: "That is the Zhang family's secret treasure, the pig-binding hook."
"What the hell?" Zhao Weipeng graduated from junior high school and had a certain level of education but could not understand Jie Chen's words.
After Zhao Jun picked up the treasure from Zhang's house, the car left Yong'an Village and went straight to the mountain field.
More than forty minutes later, the car stopped outside the small yard. Zhao Jun asked Wang Qiang to watch the dog in the car while he got out of the car carrying the things for Xing San.
Jie Chen and Zhao Weipeng also got out of the car. Jie Chen wanted to see Jie Zhong, but Zhao Weipeng was just curious and wanted to see what Lengchang was like.
"Third uncle, are you in the house?" When Zhao Jun opened the door and entered the shack, Xing San was sitting on the edge of the kang, smoking and twisting the condom.
Xing San was stunned when he heard the movement, and a rare smile appeared on his old face.
"Why are you here?"
While talking, Xing San saw Zhao Jun carrying two triangular bags and couldn't help but frowned and said, "What are you holding?"
"Bring you something to eat." After saying that, Zhao Jun went to the edge, put two bags on the kang, and then took out the things one by one.
"Third uncle, these are steamed buns." Zhao Jun took out two large butter paper buns and said, "My mother steamed them this morning, stuffed with beef."
"Oops!" After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Xing San threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stretched out his hand and eagerly opened a paper bag.
Xing San has never eaten anything good since he was born as a mountain dog. He hasn’t eaten dumplings in more than ten years. It wasn’t until Zhao Juncheng brought him a bag this year that he had enough.
This time they brought steamed buns again, and Xing San was very happy.
"Hey? Hey! Third uncle!" Seeing Xing San holding a bun and about to stuff it into his mouth, Zhao Jun quickly snatched the bun off and said, "It's frozen, you can't eat it like that!"
It doesn't matter if the old man doesn't wash his hands. The key is to walk all the way. Although the buns are not frozen solid, they are in a semi-frozen state. Eating them directly is very stomach-breaking.
Zhao Jun put the buns on the butter paper, then walked to the shelf next to the door, took out the small stew pot, opened the lid and said to Xing San: "If you want to eat, let's eat it first."
Although the buns didn't reach his mouth, Xing San felt warm in his heart. He waved his hand to Zhao Jun and said: "Don't let it go, put it on the stove lid and bake it."
With that said, Xing San took the buns and put them on the stove lid.
"You old man." Zhao Jun put down the stew pot and walked back to the kang. He took something out of his pocket and said, "Don't cause trouble for yourself."
"Yeah!"
"It's okay, just eat two pieces." Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Just talk lightly or something."
Saying that, Zhao Jun took out two pills for pain relief and two pills of golden gourd smoke from his pocket.
Since he started smoking the cigarettes Zhao Jun brought him, Xing San also discovered that these cigarettes were indeed better than leaf cigarettes. This time without saying anything, he happily accepted what Zhao Jun brought him.
"Third uncle, are you still going up the mountain now?" Zhao Jun asked.
"It's not a good time." Xing San pointed to the condom on the ground and said, "I go to the condom every now and then."
After saying this, Xing San smiled and said: "I sold all the meat to Mr. Jie."
"Okay." Zhao Jun nodded and said, "You can eat it yourself, don't just sell it."
"Yeah, I'm not short of words." Xing San smiled at Zhao Jun, and then asked, "What are you doing here today? Are you going hunting in the mountains again?"
"Yeah." Zhao Jun did not calm down with Xing San, but said directly: "Even after hunting, I will bring you to see you. After that, I still want to ask you something."
"Whatever you say." When Xing San spoke, he directly picked up the buns on the stove lid and turned them over.
"Third uncle, do you know anyone who sells knives on credit?" Zhao Jun asked: "Song, what the hell is Song An?"
"Song Anfu, Song Anlu." What Zhao Jun didn't expect was that Xing San reported two names at once.
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was stunned and asked, "Two of them?"
"Ah!" Xing San nodded and said, "Both brothers, we both sell knives on credit."
"Which one of them knows Old Xu Pao?" Zhao Jun asked again, and Xing San replied: "That's Song Anlu."
"Is he a beard?" Zhao Jun asked again.
"Yeah!" Xing San felt something was wrong when he nodded, and asked Zhao Jun: "Boy, why did you ask about him? This man is not even old."
"Ah...he is a relative of my mother's family..." Before Zhao Jun could ask, Xing San said: "Yes, your mother and father are Wang Dapapa, and Wang Dapapa's mother-in-law's surname is Song."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Ah?" Zhao Jun said in surprise: "Third uncle, do you still know my eldest grandma and the others?"
"I know you! Why don't you know me?" Xing San smiled and said, "I even carried a big bag for his family."
"Really?" Zhao Jun clicked his eyes. Recalling the content of his previous chat with Xing San, his eyes suddenly lit up and he asked: "Third uncle, your family originally belongs to Weiguang?"
Weiguang Village is located southwest of Yong'an Village, with a distance of thirty-five miles between villages and villages.
This morning at Old Xu's house, Xu Changlin once said that Song Anlu turned out to be from Weiguang Village.
"Yeah! My family used to belong to Weiguang."
"Third uncle, I heard that he moved later, right?" Zhao Jun asked. Xing San nodded and said, "Yes, he moved to Hebei."
"What?" Zhao Jun was surprised when he heard this and asked, "Moved to Hebei?"
"Ah..." Xing San smiled when asked by Zhao Jun. He pointed to the door and said, "North of Xiaohong River."
Zhao Jun: "..."
Zhao Jun was speechless for two seconds and sighed softly: "Isn't that north of the Xiaohong River Yongsheng?"
"Go further north to Yongsheng." Xing San frowned slightly and thought, "What's the name of that village?"
"Xinmin." Zhao Jun gave him the answer. Xing San nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, it's Xinmin."
For some reason, Zhao Jun asked Xing San another question out of nowhere, saying: "Third uncle, does Song Anlu know Blind Pang?"
Recently, Zhao Jun has been thinking about the old hut on the hill opposite Widow Wang's door frame. He has also gone there. It is indeed a good ginseng land, and he has made a lot of money. But Pang Xiazi leads the ginseng gang. If he grows ginseng, he will make a fortune.
If so, it would be impossible not to leak the news.
Therefore, Zhao Jun thought of the gold his grandfather had provided to the Anti-Japanese Alliance. I just heard from Xing San that Song Anlu was not far from Yongsheng Tun after he moved, and the Pang family was in Yongsheng Tun.
After Zhao Jun asked, he saw Xing San and Xing looking directly at him and said in shock: "What did you hear?"
"No." Zhao Jun was a little confused by Xing San's question, and just said: "What's the matter, Third Master?"
Xing Sandao: "Then Song Anlu is Blind Pang's father."
"What?" When Xing San said this, Zhao Jun was so shocked that he jumped up from the edge of the kang and said, "How is that possible?"
