Looking from a distance, the man was still walking forward, with his back to Zhao Jun.
But without looking at the face, you can tell that this person is Zhang Yuanmin just by looking at the man's short stature, his big crotch, and his two short legs tugging at each other when he walks.
But what surprised Zhao Jun was that he had only been away for a few days, and where did this old boy get a gun? And judging from his posture, he should have just come out of the mountain field.
Zhao Jun was also helpless, thinking that this big crotch would be painful if he did not seek death for a day.
When the first horse-drawn sledge passed by Zhang Yuanmin, Zhang Yuanmin saw Li Baoyu sitting on the sledge and turned back to wave to him.
Zhang Yuanmin was stunned. He was about to call Li Baoyu and ask him to pull him along, but he remembered that Li Baoyu was walking with Zhao Jun.
At this time, Zhang Yuanmin hurriedly turned around when he heard the stamping of horse hooves on the ground and the shouts of the car owner driving the car from behind.
The moment he saw Zhao Jun, his face burst into laughter, waving his arms and shouting: "Brother! Brother!"
Without Zhao Jun's words, Li Laowu reined in his horse and stopped the sledge beside Zhao Jun.
"Come up quickly." Zhao Jun called Zhang Yuanmin to get on the sledge, but in front of Li Laowu, Zhao Jun did not ask Zhang Yuanmin where his gun came from.
But when Zhang Yuanmin sat down next to Zhao Jun, Zhao Jun suddenly saw a big slap mark on Zhang Yuanmin's left cheek.
This is a slap in the face!
"Brother." Zhao Jun leaned close to Zhang Yuanmin's ear, trying his best to control his voice so that Li Laowu wouldn't hear, "What's going on?"
"Brother! Are you back?" When Zhao Jun asked, Zhang Yuanmin almost burst into tears. He pulled Zhao Jun and said, "I am..."
Upon seeing this, Zhao Jun quickly held down his hand and winked at him, which meant that there was an outsider.
Zhang Yuanmin was stunned for a moment, but when he saw Zhao Jun's eyes, he realized what he was saying and stopped talking.
The horse sledge quickly entered the village. Zhao Jun did not ask Li Laowu to send Zhang Yuanmin home. Instead, when they passed a place relatively close to Zhang Yuanmin's home, Zhao Jun asked Li Laowu to stop the sledge and let Zhang Yuanmin go home on his own. "Brother." Zhao Jun said to Zhang Yuanmin: "You go back first, and I will visit you when I have time in the afternoon."
"Yeah." Zhang Yuanmin nodded and said, "Brother, I'll stay home and wait for you."
Zhao Jun waved his hand to him and then gave Li Laowu directions.
Before Zhao Jun's house was outside, Xiao Hua jumped off the sledge and ran back to Li Baoyu's house.
Zhao Jun waited for the sledge to stop, then walked into the yard with the black dog in his arms, leaving Li Laowu to tie the horse outside.
Zhao Jun quickly came to the door of his house. Because he was holding the black dog and couldn't free his hands, he kicked the door with his foot and shouted: "Baoyu, open the door."
"Coming, coming." As soon as he finished speaking, Li Baoyu pushed the door open from the inside.
He just brought back the cub, rhubarb, and white dragon first, but he only followed Ji Lin, who was driving a horse and sledge. So Li Baoyu couldn't go back to his home first, so he had to take Ji Lin and the three dogs into Zhao State.
Military home.
"Baoyu, go ahead." Zhao Jun handed the black dog in his arms to Li Baoyu. Li Baoyu subconsciously took it and heard Zhao Jun say to him: "You can carry it home first."
"Ah?" Li Baoyu was stunned when he heard this, and then heard Zhao Jun explain to him, saying: "This dog is wicked. It must be put together with the little bear and the white dragon, and it must not be beaten from morning to night? You first kill the rhubarb
Let it go to my house and take it to your house to raise it."
When Li Baoyu heard this, he thought so. These dogs are all injured now and cannot be tied outside. They have to be kept in the house.
But the black dog is cheap and rotten. If he is placed with the little bear and the white dragon, he will have to fight every day. But Dahuang is honest, so let’s do what Zhao Jun said first.
While the two were talking, they saw Li Laowu walking into the yard with the sack containing the chickens in both hands.
Zhao Jun hurriedly ran up to him, took the sack from Li Laowu's hand, laid it flat on the ground, then stood up and said to Li Laowu: "Brother Wu, come into the house with me and drink some water."
After saying that, Zhao Jun turned around and took Li Laowu into the house, while winking at Li Baoyu.
The two have been brothers for many years. Li Baoyu understood with just one glance. He nodded to Zhao Jun and walked towards his home with Black Tiger in his arms.
As soon as Zhao Jun led Li Laowu into the house, he saw Wang Meilan holding a thermos bottle in one hand and a teapot in the other, and was about to walk into the back room.
When she saw Zhao Jun come in, the mother's face lit up with joy and she said with a smile: "My son is back." After saying that, she saw Li Laowu following Zhao Jun, and she hurriedly welcomed the guests into the house to get on the Kang.<
/p>
"Mom, Mom." Zhao Jun stopped Wang Meilan, took the thermos bottle and teapot from her hands, and then said to her: "Before we came back, Uncle Tao's family brought four chickens. Our family and Baoyu's family are two families. Now,
They all have to be put in sacks outside, so hurry up and take a look, call me Aunt Li, and share them."
"That's too polite." Upon hearing this, Wang Meilan handed the thermos bottle and teapot to Zhao Jun, and then told him: "They sent them back to you, so you can keep them for a meal."
p>
"Okay, Mom, I understand.
Zhao Jun entered the back room and poured water for Li Laowu and Ji Lin. Then he pulled a stool and sat on it. He smiled at them and said, "My mother told us not to leave at noon. We will go back after dinner at home."
."
"That's incredible." Li Laowu turned to look at the big clock hanging on the wall, and then said to Zhao Jun: "It's only about ten o'clock. Let's have a drink of water and rest for a while before leaving."
"Fifth Uncle, you have finally come here, why are you leaving in such a hurry? Besides, you have to eat something when you get to my house?" Zhao Jun advised sincerely: "My house is too
There’s nothing good about it, but whether it’s big dumplings or steamed buns, if you take one bite and leave, I’ll feel happy.”
Hearing this, Li Laowu glanced at Ji Lin, but saw Ji Lin shaking his head and saying to Zhao Jun: "Zhao Jun, we accept your wishes, but we won't eat. Hunting this time has delayed the family a lot.
It’s work. Besides, we’re about to start farming, so we have to get ready to go home.”
While several people were talking, they heard the sound of the door opening outside. Zhao Jun got up and went to the outhouse to take a look. When he saw Li Baoyu coming in, he took out the money from his pocket, counted out two pieces and handed it to Li Baoyu.

Li Baoyu didn't answer, but looked at Zhao Jun.
Zhao Jun came to him and whispered: "Baoyu, hurry up to the small shop and buy them some dry food."
"Just buy dry food?" Li Baoyu lowered his head and looked at the two yuan in his hand. Two yuan is a lot these days. If you want to buy stove fruits, trough cakes, and large biscuits, you can buy a lot.
"Yes." Zhao Jun nodded and signaled Li Baoyu to go quickly. The two of them have to drive the sledge for a while, and it will definitely be inconvenient to get the canned food. Why not get some dry food? If you are hungry on the way, you can give it a sip.
Li Baoyu took the money and left. The moment he opened the door, Zhao Jun saw Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei, who were binding chicken loose in the yard.
Zhao Jun returned to the room again and said a few words to Li Laowu and Ji Lin. After the two of them finished drinking a tea jar of water, Zhao Jun stood up and took the thermos bottle to ask them to refill the water, but Ji Lin gave them
Stopped.
"Zhao Jun, stop working, we won't drink anymore." Ji Lin said, got down from the kang, and then said to Li Laowu: "Uncle Wu, let's go back then?"
"Go back." Li Laowu simply got off the kang, stretched his arms into the sleeves of the cotton-padded jacket draped over his shoulders, and walked out.
If Zhao Jun wants to stay, he will not be able to stop him at this time.
Fortunately, as soon as he arrived at the door of the room, he saw the door open, and Li Baoyu walked in with eight butter paper packets in both hands.
His posture shocked Li Laowu and Ji Lin.
Zhao Jun hurried over, took four butter paper packets from Li Baoyu's right hand, held the rope with both hands, handed it to Li Laowu, and said: "Uncle Wu, you are in a hurry when you come here, my brothers are
Buy you some dry food."
"This... you..." Li Laowu looked at the butter paper package handed over by Zhao Jun, feeling a little embarrassed to accept it.
"Uncle, don't do this." Zhao Jun didn't allow him to explain. He hung the rope with the butter paper bag on Li Laowu's finger, and then continued to say with a smile: "Let you follow Ji
Brother, you are not going to eat at home. This is what Baoyu and I share. You two can take it. If you get hungry on the way, you can take a bite, right?"
"Okay!" Hearing what Zhao Jun said, Li Laowu smiled happily and said: "You kid can do it, your fifth uncle will take it."
At this time, Li Baoyu also smiled and handed the dry food in Ji Lin's hand. He came back on Ji Lin's sledge. Although Ji Lin was driving the sledge against the wind and the two could not say anything, it was easy for young people to get along with each other. Then several people invited each other again, and after saying polite words about coming to each other's homes when they were free, Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu sent Li Laowu and Ji Lin out.
As soon as I went out, I saw Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei holding two chickens. They were studying something there.
When she saw Li Baoyu coming back from buying dry food, Wang Meilan knew that the two of them could not eat at home, but out of politeness, she took the initiative to invite them.
After sending the two away, Jin Xiaomei was about to go home with Li Baoyu with two hens. Zhao Jun hurriedly stopped Jin Xiaomei and said to her: "Auntie, you need both of these chickens."
Circle it, don’t let the little flowers pounce."
"Oops!" Jin Xiaomei reacted immediately after hearing this. She didn't raise chickens at home before, so she really never thought about this problem.
Now when Zhao Jun said it, she realized that the old hen really had to be penned up, otherwise it would easily get into the dog's belly if it wandered around.
But there was no dog cage at home, so Jin Xiaomei thought about it and ordered Li Baoyu, "Boss, hurry up to the warehouse, take out the big basket, and put it there for the chickens first."
"Is it okay if our family is locked up in the warehouse?" Wang Meilan asked Zhao Jun with some uncertainty: "Then Qinglong can't be beaten by chickens, right?"
The newly arrived chickens need to be familiarized with the environment first. After they recognize their home, it will be fine if they are allowed to wander around the farm. But that is not possible now. If they want to disperse now, they will have to run away.
These days, the yard gate is usually open during the day, and the fence and tent can't stop the chicken.
Therefore, Wang Meilan wanted to arrange the two of them in the barn. But the green dragon was already three months old, and the little puppy could run and jump, and was very happy. Wang Meilan was really afraid that it would bite the chicken.
Regarding this issue, Zhao Jun was also very cautious. After thinking about it, he said: "If you leave it for a few days, a month, or two months, it should be fine."
"Okay." Wang Meilan opened the barn door and threw the two chickens in. Now the barn is bustling with chickens, sheep, and dogs. If the bear hadn't been sold, Zhao Jun's family would have
I’ve built a small zoo.
"Son, come into the house quickly." Wang Meilan threw the chicken in, turned around, clapped her hands, and called Zhao Jun into the house. She hadn't seen her son for several days, and the mother missed her son very much, so she pulled Zhao Jun and went there.
Walk inside the house.
As soon as she opened the door and entered the house, Wang Meilan shouted: "Daughter, your brother is back."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Zhao Hong and Zhao Na running out of Zhao Jun's room.
Someone came to the house just now, and the two little girls were arranged to go to Zhao Jun's room. Even if they heard Zhao Jun later, they couldn't bear to come out.
At this time, when they heard Wang Meilan shouting, the two little girls opened the door and came out.
In this family, it seems that Zhao Youcai is the only one who does not miss Zhao Jun.
"Brother!" Zhao Hong rushed over, hugged Zhao Jun's legs, and shouted: "I miss you."
"Brother..." The other little drama was more dramatic, and he even cried.
Zhao Jun hurriedly knelt down and held both sisters in his arms. At this time, he heard Zhao Hong ask in his ear: "Brother, what delicious food did you bring back for us when you went out this time?"
p>
"I..."
Zhao Jun was startled, but then he thought that he had brought food to his two sisters after going out several times. But today, they were sent all the way back, and they really didn’t buy anything.
Zhao Jun patted Zhao Hong's back with his hand and said gently: "Sister, what do you want to eat? I will buy it for you later."
"Don't spoil her all the time." Wang Meilan said from the side: "She eats a lot every day."
Zhao Jun smiled, touched Zhao Hong and Zhao Na's little heads, and gently pushed them towards the back room.
At this time, Wang Meilan asked Zhao Jun: "Son, what do you want to eat for lunch? Mom will cook it for you."
Hearing this question, Zhao Jun really thought about it seriously. Although the conditions are difficult these days, he really has no shortage of words. In Tao Xiaobao's house these days, Li Yunxiang is really entertaining him.
To be honest, Zhao Jun is a little tired of eating meat.
He thought again and again, and finally said to Wang Meilan: "Mom, I want to eat hand-made noodles."
"Mom, let's make noodles now!" After Wang Meilan said that, she went to get the basin. While taking the small basin out of the big basin, she asked Zhao Jun: "Do you want hot soup? Cold soup?"
Hot soup noodles are easy to understand, but the cold soup mentioned by Wang Meilan is boiled noodles in Northeast China, which is also known as braised noodles.
"Have you eaten some water?" Zhao Jun said: "I've been a little bit hot from eating in the past two days, so I need something to cool down."
"Okay." Wang Meilan opened the bowl rack, took out the dough bag, poured the dough into the basin, then added water to stir the dough, and then kneaded the dough.
When she woke up, Wang Meilan went out and brought back two pieces of wild boar tenderloin, and said to Zhao Jun: "Mom, put more meat in, and let's make a meat sauce."
"Okay..." Zhao Jun nodded helplessly. There was nothing we could do about it. Their family only had a lot of wild boar meat.
Wang Meilan put the meat in cold water. The meat cannot be completely melted. If it is left in the water for a while, it will have to be cut if it is half melted.
"Hey, that's right!" Suddenly, Wang Meilan turned to Zhao Jun and asked, "I was so busy that I forgot to ask you, why didn't Hua Xiaoer come back?"
