Chapter 222. Jinluan Palace and Smelly Thatched Cottage
"Catch fifteen?" Zhao Youcai looked at Wang Qiang in disbelief and said, "How is that possible? Did they fall into the roe deer's nest?"
Roe deer is also a social animal, but it is not like wild boar, which can live in groups of more than ten or twenty.
If there are five or six roe deer in a group, it is considered too many.
Zhao Jun and others shot fifteen roe deer in one day. Even if they were less, it would take three gangs of roe deer to get enough.
We hunted three gangs of roe deer in one day. How did we do this?
But what Wang Qiang said next left Zhao Youcai stunned.
Wang Qiang raised his right hand, waved his palm in front of Zhao Youcai's eyes, and said, "We fought five battles today, and not a single one of the four gangs of roe deer escaped."
Zhao Youcai looked at Xing San and saw Xing San nodded slightly. Zhao Youcai hurriedly asked: "Why are you knocking?"
"What?" Wang Qiang said with a smile: "My nephew is really clever. There are two gangs of people and two gangs of dogs. One gang leads a bunch of dogs into the ditch and pond to block the fight. That gang leads another gang.
The dogs went up the mountain to block the fight..."
"That's not right! You're just kidding!" Zhao Youcai said, "If you guys can fight twice in one day, that's pretty good. It's pretty good."
"Brother-in-law." Wang Qiang smiled at Zhao Youcai and said, "Then I want to tell you, did the group of people who went to the battle go up in a big jeep?"
"Big Jeep..." After hearing Wang Qiang's words, his expression suddenly changed.
He was an expert at fighting sieges, including dog sieges, sneak sieges, and battle sieges. Zhao Youcai was able to do it all. As soon as he heard Wang Qiang's words, the feasibility of several plans suddenly appeared in his mind.
Naturally, Wang Qiang would not lie to Zhao Youcai. The mountain farm to the south of Yingbei Mountain, which connected several forest classes, had been cleared and was the habitat of roe deer.
Today, the Zhao family gang counted the dry land on the hilltops and hunted four groups of roe deer in one day, fighting five battles in total.
Why do four groups of roe deer fight five wars?
Because there was a group of six roe deer, four of them were held down by the dog gang, and two of them ran away.
Then, Zhao Jun drove with his dogs and surrounded the two roe deer.
At this time, Jie Chen, who had gone into the house to get wax, led Wang Meilan out of the house.
After leaving the house, Wang Meilan glanced outside the courtyard door, then climbed over the wall to Li's house to call for help.
The old lady, Xie Sun and others all came, but the Zhao family always had business coming and going, so they all went to the Li family in the west courtyard.
In the west room of the Li family, Li Tongyun was studying with the children. In the east room, Li Ruhai and the women were standing around collecting skins.
With Li Ruhai here, there are endless new things to talk about, and the women don't feel bored when they work.
After being greeted by Wang Meilan, everyone put down their work and came outside.
It's almost four o'clock, and it's getting dark outside. No one will come to sell goods anymore, so it's time to make dinner.
When they walked out of the Li family's courtyard, they saw the car parked in front of the Zhao family's fence.
Wang Qiang and Jie Chen stepped forward and lowered the guardrail of the rear compartment of the liberation vehicle, and the hunting dogs jumped off first.
At this time, the hunting dogs all had full stomachs.
After five battles today, I was really not tired. Even Xing San didn't feel anything bad.
But dogs can't do it. People run in cars, but dogs run in the mountains. Fortunately, there is nothing nearby in this mountain field. When you go up the mountain, you just follow the car and don't take the wrong path. This is how the Zhao family dog gang persevered.
But after the fifth battle, the dogs were exhausted.
In order to reward the dog gang, Zhao Jun picked out the largest roe deer for them to eat.
A large green millet that weighed more than 90 kilograms when alive was eaten by the hunting dogs. In the end, only a hind leg of the roe deer was left.
And these hunting dogs, all of them full of belly, wandered around and got close to the family members, and then went back to their dens to rest.
We got a total of fifteen roe deer, fed one to the dog, and there are still fourteen left. The jeep will definitely not be able to fit them, so they will have to be put in the trunk of the Jiefang truck.
The hunting dogs were all full, but there was a certain dog that was in need. In order to protect the live roe deer and their meat, Zhao Jun came back in the back of the car.
Men, women, old and young all began to unload the roe deer from the trunk of the car. There were nine live roe deer and five skinned roe deer.
"Xiaomei, Chunyan!" Wang Meilan called people and ordered: "Go across the whole house to finish roasting the roe deer. Remove the ribs and blanch them quickly. After they are finished, stew them. Then take some meat from the backbone and let's blanch the vegetables.
The rest of the gāo) will be chopped up and stuffed after the meal!"
Wang Meilan was excited to have meat at home.
"Don't forget about the dumplings and steamed buns first." Zhao Youcai stopped Wang Meilan and said, "What about the older live roe deer?"
Wang Meilan was stunned when Zhao Youcai asked. She wanted to put it in the backyard, but suddenly she remembered that there were a bunch of pigs in the backyard.
"I have to buy those pigs..." Zhao Youcai wanted to say a few words as soon as he got up the energy, but if he didn't say anything, he felt suffocated.
In the past, Zhao Youcai was not like this, but recently he has been at home with five spines and six beasts. He has been scratching his head and covered his howling wind, and he is no longer normal.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law." Seeing this, Wang Qiang quickly stopped Zhao Youcai from talking and said, "Don't we still have a big iron cage in the Tunbu? Let's borrow it here and there."
"Is that possible?" Zhao Youcai said: "The roe deer can't stand up even if it goes in, so why can't it die of suffocation?"
"Just one night, nothing will happen." Wang Qiang said: "Just one night first, and then let the aid workers hammer in a few more stakes tomorrow."
Roe deer is not like pigs and sheep. It is not a domestic animal, but a wild animal. If you put it in a pen, it will jump out with all its strength.
In the past, when the Zhao family raised roe deer, Zhang Yuanmin nailed a frame to restrain the roe deer and keep it within a small area.
Later, this trick was passed on to Xishantun by Li Ruhai, and then the roe deer breeding business in Xishantun began.
"There used to be those piles, but they were all demolished..." Zhao Youcai was about to blame anyone when he caught a problem. Zhao Jun hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Dad, just demolish them. It turns out that the four racks are not enough.
Where are these nine roe deer?"
With that said, Zhao Jun looked at Yang Yufeng and asked, "Hey? Sister-in-law, where is my eldest brother?"
When Zhang Yuanmin was ill at home, Yang Yufeng and Xiao Lingdang were at home with him, and no one came to Zhao's house.
At this time, Zhao Jun saw Yang Yufeng but not Zhang Yuanmin. Zhao Jun felt a little strange.
"Ah..." Yang Yufeng quietly glanced at Zhao Youcai, and then said to Zhao Jun: "Where is your eldest brother at home?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Why didn't he come?" Zhao Jun asked: "Where is the bell?"
"The bell is in the west courtyard, and I'm studying with Xiaoyun." Yang Yufeng said: "Your eldest brother... your eldest brother said he wasn't very enthusiastic, so he didn't come over."
"Oh my God." When Zhao Jun heard this, he thought that Zhang Yuanmin had caused the black blind man to fall and suffered sequelae, so he asked Yang Yufeng nervously, "Sister-in-law, why don't you take him to the hospital for a checkup?"
Going?"
"No, no need." Yang Yufeng hurriedly refused and said, "There's nothing important for him. He'll be here soon."
In fact, Zhang Yuanmin was fine at all. He didn't come to Zhao's house because he was afraid that Zhao Youcai would force him to take over his job.
Zhang Yuanmin is so smart. He knows that no matter what happens the first time, there will be a second time, and there will be countless times in the future.
If you don't handle it well, you won't be able to go up the mountain when you get better.
Isn't it better to go to the mountains to fight for siege than to pick up guests at home?
So today, Zhang Yuanmin came to Zhao Jun for a walk. He felt that Zhao Youcai looked at him wrong, so Zhang Yuanmin hurriedly found an excuse and ran away.
"What...his dad!" At this time, Wang Meilan said to Zhao Youcai: "Go to the Tunbu and borrow some of those big cages from Guofeng. When you are done, tell Guofeng that our family is killing pigs to entertain guests.
.”
Hearing what Wang Meilan said, Zhao Youcai curled his lips, and then said to Zhao Jun: "You drive and follow me."
The big iron cage had to be put on a cart to pull it. Zhao Jun hurriedly called Li Baoyu and Xie Chen to get on the cart.
"I'll go too." Wang Qiang said, "I'll help move the things. When I'm done, I'll tell Brother Guofeng that my family will treat him to a treat on the 25th and let him eat pork."
"Let's go, uncle." Zhao Jun waved to Wang Qiang, then turned to Xing San and said, "Third uncle, you can rest at home, and you can work hard all day."
After saying that, Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu got into the trunk and asked Jie Chen to drive. Zhao Youcai and Wang Qiang sat in the passenger seat.
At this moment, Li Ruhai jumped into the trunk and said to Zhao Jun: "Brother, I will help you with your work too!"
The car started and we arrived at Tuenbu within two minutes.
At this time, the lights were still on in the Tunbu. When the six people entered the house, they saw Zhao Guofeng packing things there.
"Ouch!" Zhao Guofeng was startled when he saw a group of them coming and said, "What are you doing here?"
"Guofeng." Zhao Youcai said to Zhao Guofeng: "You can lend us a few more of those big iron cages in the warehouse."
When Zhao Youcai came this time, he had two things to do. One was to borrow a large iron cage from Zhao Guofeng, and the other was to invite Zhao Guofeng's family to his house to eat butchered vegetables on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month.
When talking to Zhao Guofeng about these two things, there must be a clear order. You must first talk about borrowing the cage, and then you can talk about treating guests to eat butchered vegetables.
After hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Zhao Guofeng immediately took out a large number of keys from his trouser pocket without saying a word.
There was a rope tied to the key ring, and the other end of the rope was tied to Zhao Guofeng's trouser belt.
"Let's go!" Zhao Guofeng found the key to the warehouse, pinched it with his hands, and said, "I'll take you there."
"Why do you agree so happily?" Zhao Youcai smiled and said, "It's quite a face-saving gesture."
The two of them were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship has become very good. When Zhao Guofeng's father was in trouble, Zhao Youcai and Zhao Jun's father, Zhao Dazhu, helped each other greatly. Only then did Zhao Guofeng's father give him a slap in the face.
Later, he turned a blind eye and allowed Zhao Youcai to take away a package of silver jewelry from the Wang family from the Tunbu.
"Look at what you said." Zhao Guofeng said with a smile: "You are all here, can I still tease you?"
Coming out of the house chatting and laughing, Zhao Guofeng opened the warehouse door, held up a flashlight and swung it inside, saying to Zhao Jun: "Jun, you put on your gloves and take them down one by one. Take as much as you can."
Zhao Jun agreed and went into the warehouse with Wang Qiang and others to lift the cage.
Zhao Youcai and Zhao Guofeng did not do anything. They were outside the warehouse. Zhao Youcai took out Shilinyan from his pocket and gave it to Zhao Guofeng, saying: "On the 24th, my family is killing pigs. You lead our mother, younger siblings and Jinshan. You guys
Come to my house and eat pork.”
"Okay." Zhao Guofeng responded. Seeing Zhao Jun and Wang Qiang carrying a cage out, Zhao Guofeng said, "Jun, how many wild boars have you caught these days?"
"I haven't caught any, uncle." Zhao Jun said this, and Zhao Guofeng said: "I was thinking that if you wanted to catch more, you could sell me one and I would give it as a gift."
"Uncle, do you want a roe deer?" Zhao Jun asked, and Zhao Guofeng said, "Are there any roe deer?"
"Yes." At this time, Zhao Jun and Wang Qiang pushed the cage onto the trunk of the car, turned around and said to Zhao Guofeng: "Uncle, when do you want it, just tell me and I will take it home for you."
"That's okay." Zhao Guofeng said, "How much will it cost after we finish it? I'll give it to you."
"Then what more money do you need?" Zhao Youcai took over the conversation and said, "I will treat you as your eldest nephew and respect you."
"Nothing else." Zhao Guofeng shook his head and said, "I can eat this and give it as a gift. This is another matter."
While Zhao Youcai and Zhao Guofeng were chatting, Zhao Jun and the others installed four large iron cages on the car.
"I'm leaving, Guofeng." Zhao Youcai left a word to Zhao Guofeng and turned to leave.
At this time, Zhao Jun took out a small cloth bag from the cab and brought it to Zhao Guofeng.
"Jun." Zhao Guofeng was stunned, looked up at Zhao Jun, and asked, "What is this?"
Zhao Jun thrust the small cloth bag into Zhao Guofeng's hand and said with a smile: "Uncle, this is the thing you asked me for last time."
"Ah..." Zhao Guofeng squeezed the bag and felt the shape of the things inside. His eyes lit up and he said: "Roe Deer Whistle!"
After Zhao Guofeng finished speaking, seeing Zhao Youcai looking at him, Zhao Guofeng hurriedly explained: "This is... a friend from the village who asked me to get it for him."
"You can pull me down." Zhao Youcai waved his hand and said: "They say this thing was done for a friend, but in fact it's all a bitch!"
"Get lost!" Zhao Guofeng laughed and scolded, and slapped Zhao Youcai on the back.
The car pulled six people and four large iron cages back to the Zhao family. Zhao Jun and Wang Qiang carried one, Li Baoyu and Jie Chen carried one, and they all went to the Li family courtyard.
Now, only the Li family's warehouse still has some space, while the Zhao family has no space at all.
Li Ruhai and Zhao Youcai were still left outside the hospital. At this time, Li Ruhai took the initiative and said to Zhao Youcai: "Sir, let's lift one of them too."
"Are you so active?" Zhao Youcai looked at Li Ruhai and said, "What have you done to get excited about today?"
"I'm not horny, uncle." Li Ruhai said with a hint of grievance: "I stayed at home to help my aunt pick up the fox skins in the morning, and in the afternoon I picked up the yellow leaves and other things with them."
When Zhao Youcai heard this, he glanced at Li Ruhai and said, "Aren't you going to learn from me?"
"Uncle, I won't learn from you." Li Ruhai smiled and said: "My elder brother said that I won't be allowed to run in the mountains until I am twenty years old. He also said that I am too young and asked me to calm down and wait until I am older.
Later, I will find a technical position for me and let me learn a trade."
"You..." Zhao Youcai's expression changed drastically. He had finally managed to win over Li Ruhai, so why did he defect to Zhao Jun again?
"How can you learn from me? Just listen to him..." Zhao Youcai was interrupted by Li Ruhai midway through his words.
"Uncle, there is an old saying in China." Li Ruhai said with a smile: "Tell good birds to choose trees to roost in."
"What the hell?" Zhao Youcai frowned. He was uneducated and couldn't understand this.
At this time, Zhao Jun and Wang Qiang came out empty-handed to lift the cage. Li Ruhai stepped forward, stretched out his hand and said: "Brother, let me help you."
The three of them carried the big cage and walked inside. Wang Qiang smiled and praised Li Ruhai, saying: "Ruhai Xing, you are becoming more and more sensible."
"Hehe, I learned it all from my elder brother." Li Ruhai smiled and said: "There is an old saying in China: when you are next to gold, it is like gold; when you are next to jade, it is like jade; when you are next to it, the carpenter knows how to saw; next to the Golden Palace, Ganoderma lucidum grass will grow;
If you have a smelly latrine, it will probably have dog urine moss on it!"
