Chapter 438. The overt and covert struggles between the Zhao family and his son
That night, Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu and the ministers came to have dinner at Zhang Yuanmin's house.
Because the bear paws were stewed, they were cooked like a steamer in Zhang Yuanmin's house.
So, Zhang Yuanmin set up a table in the yard, and several people ate together in the yard.
Three meat dishes, braised bear paws, bear meat stir-fried with chili, and braised fish in soy sauce.
These fish were caught by Zhang Yuanmin's net in Qiantianxia, and he went to the river specifically this afternoon.
Yang Yufeng squeezed all kinds of small fish from the Internet, gutted them, picked out the scales, oiled them, and stewed them in soy sauce.
By doing this, the little fishes will become crispy even with their heads and bones.
Toufu radish, Erfu cabbage.
At this time, the cabbage in the field has not grown yet, and they are all large and juicy leaves.
Tear a large piece of cabbage leaf, place a piece of rice with chopsticks on top of the cabbage leaf, place the small fish wrapped in sauce on the rice, tear some green onion leaves, and sprinkle coriander segments on top.
Then, roll up the cabbage leaves and take a big bite. This kind of vegetable wrap contains both meat and vegetables, and its fragrance is really indescribable.
Zhao Jun didn't drink, so he ate the rice dumplings with great gulps. Xiao Lingdang, who was full first, went to the vegetable garden three times in a row, picking out big-leaf cabbage and picking it up for Zhao Jun.
Zhang Yuanmin, Li Baoyu, and Jie Chen started to change cups and drank happily.
It wasn't until they were tipsy that Zhao Jun stopped them. After all, they had to hunt deer deer tomorrow, and drinking too much would delay things.
These three people also listened to Zhao Jun's words. After Zhao Jun said it, the frequency of their drinking dropped.
Jie Chen likes to eat bear paws. According to him, he has always wanted to eat them, but has never had the chance to eat them.
Hearing what he said, Zhao Jun and others persuaded him to eat more. In fact, these things are similar to pig's trotters when finished. Zhao Jun and the others prefer to eat bear meat and stir-fry chili peppers.
By the time they had finished drinking and eating, it was already dark, but the chatter became more and more animated. Yang Yufeng hung up a kerosene lamp in the yard and made tea for the four of them.
After the tea was finished, Zhao Jun was ready to take Li Baoyu and Xie Chen back. Before leaving, Zhao Jun said to Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother, we won't take the dog tomorrow, so you don't have to go to my house. I will follow Xie Chen."
I’ll pick you up at half past six.”
"Okay." Zhang Yuanmin responded, but Li Baoyu sighed and said, "I have to go to work tomorrow, so I can't shoot fragrant deer." After saying that, Li Baoyu patted his thigh in annoyance and said, "I haven't done it yet.
Have you ever beaten fragrant deer?"
When Zhao Jun heard this, he smiled and said: "Brother, there are many things we haven't fought before."
"That's right!" Li Baoyu nodded, stretched out his hand to count, and said, "We have caught the big paw, but we have never beaten it. We have never beaten the native leopard or the red dog."
As soon as Li Baoyu finished speaking, Zhao Jun continued: "We have never fought a hanging sheep."
"The Hanging Sheep?" Li Baoyu was stunned. Li Baoyu had also heard the story that Zhao Jun had heard when he was a child, but neither of them had ever seen the Hanging Sheep.
At this time, Zhang Yuanmin, who was waving a cattail leaf fan, laughed, and after attracting everyone's attention, he pointed the cattail leaf fan at the distant mountains.
"Brother!" Zhang Yuanmin said to Zhao Jun: "If you want to fight the hanging sheep, you have to go to Qingshi Lazi."
"Oops!" When Zhao Jun heard this, he hurriedly asked: "Brother, do you know this too?"
"Yeah!" Zhang Yuanmin put away his fan and nodded: "When my father was alive, he caught hanging sheep."
"Ah?" Zhao Jun suddenly became energetic and asked: "I, Uncle Zhang, can still pick up the pole?"
"Yes." Zhang Yuanmin blinked twice and recalled: "When my father was alive, he caught deer alive. He also went to Xing'an Mountains and caught Wandahan. Hiss..."
Zhang Yuanmin frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "What year was that? After drinking, I can't remember clearly in my head, but I know that the production team over there in the double horse rack asked my dad to help them catch the hanging sheep."<
/p>
"Double horse stand?" Upon hearing this place, Zhao Jun knew clearly and asked Zhang Yuanmin: "Did they capture me, Uncle Zhang?"
Zhang Yuanmin shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"Then why don't you know?" Li Baoyu asked: "Then if you caught it, you caught it. If you didn't catch it, you didn't catch it."
Zhang Yuanmin glanced at Li Baoyu, then picked up the big teapot and took a sip of tea before saying: "When my father came back, my mother and I asked him, but he didn't say anything and just told us not to ask."
When Zhao Jun heard this, he understood more clearly. He was afraid that Li Baoyu would ask further questions, so he asked Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother, can you get off the pole?"
Then, Zhao Jun was afraid that Zhang Yuanmin would not understand after drinking, so he asked him again, "The kind of pole that can catch hanging sheep."
"Yes!"
As Zhang Yuanmin nodded, Zhao Jun looked happy and said with a smile: "Brother, you can do it, you can do this."
"Yes." Li Baoyu also said: "Brother, you are hiding everything!"
A hidden secret scratched Zhang Yuanmin's itch. He laughed, but Zhao Jun asked: "Brother, why haven't you caught that thing? I heard that catching hanging sheep can make more money than medicinal deer."
."
"Alas!" Zhang Yuanmin sighed and said, "That thing is not easy to control. Sometimes it is so choked that one can even squat on it for a year. If the eldest brother wants to catch it with all his fingers, the whole family will starve to death."
"Brother." Zhao Jun asked Zhang Yuanmin again: "Then what are we going to do for you?"
"It can't be done now." Zhang Yuanmin said: "You can't beat the hanging sheep or rattle the leaves. That thing can't even hear the slightest movement. It can't do anything with the snow slide either. Roe deer can even fly on the snow, let alone it."
When Zhao Jun heard this, he understood instantly and continued: "Then we have to wait until the grass is gone?"
"Yes!" Zhang Yuanmin nodded and said, "You have to wait until the grass is gone and the grass is as tall as a man, and the hanging sheep can't see whatever is being planted. Then you can put it on."
"Then wait for next year!" Zhao Jun said, stood up from the bench and said to the three of them: "Wait for next summer, we will also catch two hanging sheep."
……
Go back home and sleep after a night.
The next day, because they were going to hunt fragrant deer, Zhao Jun and his ministers got up at around four o'clock.
When they got up, they heard the sound of exploding things in the outer room.
When Zhao Jun came out, he was stunned.
I saw Zhao Youcai in front of the pot, putting eggplant pieces into the pot, and beside him were potato slices that had just been oiled.
While Jie Chen went outside to get water to wash his face, Zhao Jun approached Zhao Youcai and asked, "Dad, what are you doing?"
Zhao Youcai smiled at Zhao Jun and said, "I'll make you some local delicacies. Have you never eaten them? Huh?"
As Zhao Youcai spoke, he saw Zhao Jun take a step back. He couldn't help but be startled, and then said angrily: "What's wrong with you kid? You want to go hunting in the mountains, what's the point of your dad cooking you a meal?"
As he said that, Zhao Youcai asked Yanli to take out the eggplant pieces from the oil pan, and then poured the chili slices next to them into the oil pan for a while.
At this time, I heard the sound of pouring water from outside the house. After washing my face outside, I poured the water directly on the ground. I guess it was Jiechen who was about to enter the house after washing his face.
Therefore, Zhao Jun did not follow Zhao Youcai in circles and asked him directly: "Dad, what do you want to do? Just tell him."
"Haha..." Zhao Youcai chuckled, stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Jun on the shoulder, making Zhao Jun hide away.
The smile on Zhao Youcai's face froze instantly, and then he said to Zhao Jun: "You are going to pay your salary in the next two days, can you give me an extra ten yuan?"
Zhao Jun frowned at Zhao Youcai and asked, "Dad, what do you need money for?"
Zhao Youcai glanced at the door of the east room, and when he saw that there was no movement inside, he whispered to Zhao Jun: "Security Team Hong Laoer's dog has laid cubs, and I plan to take care of him."
"Ah?" Zhao Jun closed his eyes and asked Zhao Youcai in disbelief, "Dad, our big ewe has no milk now. You are such a bastard, what are you going to feed it?" p>
"Look." Zhao Youcai straightened his face and said, "You didn't listen to what I said?"
When Zhao Youcai said this, Zhao Jun understood, "Dad, you mean to buy even his bitch."
"Yeah!" Zhao Youcai nodded and said, "That bitch of his can chase away roe deer and badgers, and it only takes a few drags."
After Zhao Youcai finished speaking, seeing that Zhao Jun was silent, he asked, "Is it okay? Why do I have to go to such trouble to discuss something with you?"
Zhao Jun took a deep breath, pointed outside the house and said: "Dad, look at where we have room now. If you have a whole litter of dogs, where will you raise them?"
"Don't you have room in your new house?" Zhao Youcai said, "There are two rows of doghouses in the front and back yard."
Zhao Jun gave Zhao Youcai a strange look, and then said with a smile: "Dad, I haven't lived in the house where I got married yet. If you let the dog live in it, if my mother knows about it, she won't be able to fight you out and follow the dog."
Let’s live together?”
"What the hell..." Zhao Youcai was furious when he heard this, and was about to raise his hands immediately, but when he saw the minister coming in, he put his hand on his head, pretended to scratch his head and said to Jie Chen: "Jie Chen, how did you sleep last night?
Huh?"
"It's very good, uncle." Jie Chen took a look at the food cooked by Zhao Youcai and said with a smile: "Uncle, what are you doing? It looks troublesome?"
"The earth is three delicacies." Zhao Youcai used a large spoon to scoop out the bear oil, and said to his ministers: "You have to go up the mountain every day to fight the siege. I will give you some oil and water."
When Xie Chen heard this, he quickly praised Zhao Youcai and said, "Uncle, you are still thoughtful."
That is to say, these days, people are short of oil and water. A few years later, this dish will be eaten in the early morning, and no one will be able to eat it.
After praising Zhao Youcai, Xie Chen said to Zhao Jun: "Brother Jun, my uncle is too kind to you, and I am afraid that you will be short of money and water."
"Haha..." In front of Jie Chen, Zhao Jun just laughed, but in his heart he thought: "He is not afraid that I will be short of oil and water, he just wants to let me scrape some oil and water here."
How could Jie Chen know what was going on between these two men? This boy even told Zhao Jun while they were eating.
"Brother Jun, I came at the right time. I've eaten so much delicious food in the past two days, some of which I've never tasted before."
"Then you should eat more." Zhao Youcai said to Jie Chen kindly, "It's just like home here. My uncle doesn't stay at home every day. If you want to eat something, just tell your aunt."<
/p>
"Yes!" Wang Meilan said beside her: "We will no longer be outsiders."
"Yeah!" Jie Chen nodded while chewing the rice. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he said: "Uncle, aunt, if you have any work at home in the future, just call me and I will do it for you."
Wang Meilan smiled when she heard this and said to Zhao Youcai: "Look how good this kid is."
"It's not bad." Zhao Youcai responded, and then asked Zhao Jun and his ministers, "Why are you going to fight today?"
"Fragrant deer!" Zhao Jun replied: "My brother Zhang found a nest of fragrant deer and went to hunt them today."
"Yeah!" When Zhao Youcai heard the word "Xiang Deerzi", he paused with his chopsticks, rolled his eyes, and said to Wang Meilan: "Lan Na, go make some more miso."
"Huh?" Wang Meilan was startled, pointed into the sauce bowl, and said to Zhao Youcai: "Isn't there some more?"
"I made this last night." Zhao Youcai brought the sauce bowl over, showed it to Wang Meilan, and said, "Look at this, it's all dry."
These days, there is no refrigerator and no plastic wrap.
Take the bean paste out of the sauce jar and place it in a bowl. The water on the surface will evaporate.
This kind of sauce does not affect the consumption, even a little warm water and a little warm water will do.
But no matter what he said just now, they were all polite words, and Jie Chen was still a guest after all. Therefore, when Zhao Youcai said this, Wang Meilan took the small bowl, stood up and walked out.
It takes a long time to make the sauce, and the sauce needs to ferment, which requires high temperatures.
Therefore, when Northeastern people make sauce, they always put the sauce jar outside the house where the sun can shine.
Seeing Wang Meilan carrying the sauce bowl out of the house, Zhao Jun frowned and turned to look at Zhao Youcai.
In Zhao Jun's opinion, this old guy just wanted to take care of his face when there was a guest at home, and he would not be like him, so he dared to kick his nose and get slapped in the face.
Zhao Youcai happened to look at Zhao Jun and smiled at Zhao Jun: "Son, can you take care of that Musk thing?"
Zhao Jun looked at Zhao Youcai and replied calmly: "No."
Zhao Youcai smiled when he heard this and said: "Musk is different from bear's gallbladder. Bear's gallbladder has to be dried in the shade. It can only be weighed in the store after it is taken to the pharmacy. But for musk, if you just take it over, they will accept it."
"Yeah." Zhao Jun nodded and asked, "What then?"
"Then..." Zhao Youcai said, "Dad knows someone in Lingnan. If you buy some musk and give it to me, dad will take it and sell it for you."
"Dad." Zhao Jun smiled and said to Zhao Youcai, "I won't bother you anymore. You have a very busy day."
At this point, Zhao Jun glanced at Jie Chen, and then said to Zhao Youcai, who was about to speak: "Jie Chen's brother-in-law is the manager of the supply and marketing cooperative. Can we just go to him and be done with it?"
"Ah?" Zhao Youcai was stunned and turned to look at Jie Chen.
Jie Chen didn't know what the two men were doing, so he just smiled at Zhao Youcai and said: "Yes, uncle, don't worry, we can help you over there in Lingnan."
"That's okay!" Zhao Youcai smiled reluctantly and said to Jie Chen: "My nephew, please eat quickly and eat more of that dish."
At this time, Wang Meilan walked in. When she came in, she only heard Zhao Youcai persuading the ministers to eat. She also felt that Zhao Youcai was quite reliable today. When she was sitting on the kang, she asked with a smile: "What are you guys talking about?" Zhao Youcai hurriedly said: "I didn't say anything..."
Zhao Jun interjected from the side and said: "Mom, my dad just said that if you want to buy musk, you have to sell it quickly..."
As soon as Zhao Jun opened his mouth, Zhao Youcai knew he was going to be bad, but when he heard Zhao Jun continue to say: "Mom, we are going to shoot musk today, and tomorrow Jiechen and I will go to Lingnan. Then, Mom, you will go with us." p>
"Ah?" Wang Meilan was startled when she heard this and said, "You can just go. What should I do?"
Zhao Jun smiled and said to Wang Meilan: "I'm getting married now. You said you wanted to make it big. We just have this opportunity and the car is passing by. Let's go buy some good cigarettes, good wine, and some good candy. It's not so hot now.
, you can save anything with sugar. When you’re done, buy two more good clothes for Ma Ling.”
"This..." Wang Meilan hesitated.
But at this time, Zhao Jun glanced sideways at Zhao Youcai. Zhao Youcai felt that there was a hint of threat in Zhao Jun's eyes, and his heart couldn't help but hurriedly advised Wang Meilan: "Lan Na, just go with your child. Our family is not here now."
The difference is that much money."
"Okay!" As soon as Zhao Youcai said, Wang Meilan finally made up her mind to go to Lingnan to do some shopping.
But what Zhao Jun was thinking was that as soon as he arrived in Lingnan, he would take me to the hospital, and then he would check everything from head to toe first.
