Chapter 450. The pinnacle of Xiaowei-catching the feet
Before Li Baoyu had time to ask what Li Ruhai and his future sister-in-law had been chatting about, the honking of cars and the barking of dogs came from outside the house.
Zhao Youcai is back!
Wang Meilan took two steps forward, moved her hands to the left and right, separated Li Baoyu and Li Ruhai who were blocking the way, and then strode out of the door.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Jun hurriedly followed, followed by Li Baoyu, Li Ruhai, Li Dayong, Jin Xiaomei, Jie Chen, Zhao Hong, Zhao Na and Li Xiaoqiao.
When everyone came out of the yard, the hunting dogs had already entered the yard one after another. The Zhao family's dogs returned to the Zhao family, and the Li family's dogs returned to the Li family.
When the Li family's dog entered the courtyard, it didn't look for Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun who were walking in front. Instead, it went straight to pounce on Li Baoyu who was behind.
Seeing Li Baoyu surrounded by rhubarb, small flowers, tabby cats, and tabby wolves, Li Ruhai remained unmoved and trotted after Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan with excitement on his face.
At this time, Zhao Jun had also followed Wang Meilan. He lightly touched Wang Meilan's arm and whispered: "Mom, Ruhai is here."
Wang Meilan frowned and said nothing. At this time, Zhao Jun said again: "Jie Chen is still here."
"Yeah." Wang Meilan gritted her teeth and squeezed out three words from between her teeth: "Mom knows."
These days, there are very few parents who spoil their children, so one thing parents always say is: "When someone comes to the house, you will get angry."
This is because whenever guests come to the house, parents will indulge their children and will not educate their children in front of the guests.
Because in that case, firstly, the home will not look good, and secondly, it will be suspected of driving guests away.
But in the Zhao family, the situation is special. The children are quite obedient, but the problem lies with the adults.
But Jie Chen lives in Zhao Jun's house, so no matter how much Zhao Youcai goes too far, Wang Meilan cannot quarrel with him. Otherwise, Jie Chen will not be able to stay at Zhao Jun's house.
Of course Wang Meilan knew this, so after she came out of the Li family courtyard, she stood quietly by the courtyard wall and looked at Zhao Youcai, who was reaching for the car, waiting to pick up the three fat men.
At this time, Little Bear, Bailong, and Big Fatty had all returned to Zhao's courtyard, and only Three Fatty was still in the car.
Lin Xiangshun was on the carriage, untying the rope that tied the three fat men. As soon as the rope was opened and Zhao Youcai caught it under the carriage, the three fat men could get off.
But when Zhao Jun came out of Li's courtyard, Sanpang became excited, and when it moved down, Lin Xiangshun and Zhao Youcai noticed it. Zhao Youcai subconsciously turned around and saw Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun not far away. Wang Meilan
His eyes were cold, and Zhao Jun...
This kid glanced at himself, then sighed and shook his head, pretending to hate iron but not steel, which made Zhao Youcai very angry.
"Second Aunt, we came back late and the car broke down halfway." Lin Xiangshun turned over and got off the car. He explained to Wang Meilan first, but when he saw Zhao Youcai standing motionless, he turned around and picked up the third fat man from the car.
Come down.
At this time, several members of the Li family, as well as Zhao Hong, Zhao Na, and Jie Chen all came out of the courtyard.
Li Ruhai couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he didn't see the scene he imagined appeared. Li Dayong, Jin Xiaomei and Li Baoyu were secretly relieved.
At this time, the three fat men who landed on the ground rushed in front of Zhao Jun. When Lin Xiangshun turned around, he saw nine people, large and small, lined up in front of Li's house. It was so sudden that Lin Xiangshun was shocked.
Lin Xiangshun was startled. He knew that it was definitely not a good thing for these two families to line up to greet them.
"Shunzi." At this time, Wang Meilan asked Lin Xiangshun: "Is your uncle home?"
"Ah!" Lin Xiangshun knew that Wang Meilan was asking about Wang Qiang, so he said: "I will send it back to my uncle first, ahem..."
At this point, Lin Xiangshun felt that he should go home, so he said: "Second Aunt, Uncle Li, Aunt Li, I have gone back too, and there is still dinner waiting for me at home."
"Then you go back quickly." If it were in the past, Wang Meilan would definitely leave Lin Xiangshun at home to eat. But today, she had trouble eating at home, so she didn't stay.
When Wang Meilan said this, Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei didn't stay either. Lin Xiangshun rushed to the minister and said: "Brother, I will be off work next week. You, Xiaojun and Baoyu, come to our house and let your sister-in-law do it."
A few dishes, let’s eat and drink.”
"Okay, Brother Shunzi." Jie Chen responded with a smile, and Zhao Youcai turned around and wanted to call Lin Xiangshun, but when Lin Xiangshun turned around and left, he got in the car and started running.
Watching Lin Xiangshun drive away, Wang Meilan called Li Baoyu and said, "Baoyu."
"Auntie!" Li Baoyu hurriedly stepped forward to obey the order.
Wang Meilan ordered: "You know which box contains dried noodles. Go and take out two bundles and some cans for us to eat."
"Hey!" Li Baoyu agreed, hurried to the car, grabbed the railing with both hands, turned over and got on.
At this time, Zhao Youcai finally found an opportunity to interrupt, and he laughed and said: "It's so late, you haven't eaten yet?"
As he said that, he pretended to look at Li Baoyu nonchalantly and said, "What did you buy?"
But what he didn't expect was that Wang Meilan suddenly asked: "Have you finished eating?"
"Ah?" When Zhao Youcai heard this, he knew something was wrong.
Lin Xiangshun just said that when they came back, their car broke down halfway. Therefore, none of the three people who went to fight the siege had anything to eat.
Wang Meilan heard what she said, so if she still asks this question at this time, there must be something fishy.
Wang Meilan didn't wait for Zhao Youcai's reply and said directly: "After you finish eating, you can go home and burn it in the stove. It's cold in the room."
Zhao Youcai blinked twice. He felt that Wang Meilan's eyes were colder than at home. But right now, he didn't dare to say anything.
At this time, Li Baoyu was holding two bundles of noodles and two bottles of cans and was about to get off the carriage. Zhao Jun hurried over and reached out to take a handful.
Seeing this, Wang Meilan said to Jin Xiaomei: "Brothers and sisters, hurry back to the house, clean the pot, cook a pot, and cook some noodles."
"Hey!" Jin Xiaomei agreed and hurriedly walked into the courtyard. Before leaving, she even held Zhao Hong and Zhao Na in hand.
It's almost nine o'clock, and she's hungry too.
"Like the sea." Although she was not in her own home, Wang Meilan started to give orders, otherwise these people would be standing at the door, staring at Zhao Youcai, and no one would be able to go back if she didn't have a head. p>
Therefore, Wang Meilan said to Li Ruhai: "Go to your garden quickly and see what vegetables are there. Pick some of them and bring them to your mother to cook."
Li Ruhai was full, but not hungry. But seeing that the excitement was no longer there, he listened to Wang Meilan and turned around to go back.
Before leaving, Li Ruhai wanted to take his sister Li Xiaoqiao back with him. But when he reached out to hold Li Xiaoqiao's hand, Li Xiaoqiao turned her body to one side and threw her hand down, with a look of disgust on her face.
When Li Xiaoqiao thought about it, her second brother was really going too far. He had cakes for lunch and four dishes for dinner, but he didn't care about his biological sister.
When Li Ruhai saw this, he was not angry. He just pinched his nose at Li Xiaoqiao, made a face, raised his legs and entered the hospital.
"Jie Chen." Wang Meilan said to Jie Chen, "You've been tired from driving all day. Go inside and rest for a while."
Then, Wang Meilan said to Li Dayong again, "Dayong, go back and pour some water for the child."
"Hey!" Li Dayong responded and cast a helpless look at Zhao Youcai.
It's just that he was blind, and Zhao Youcai couldn't see clearly the look in his eyes.
Then, Li Dayong led Li Xiaoqiao and the ministers into the Li family yard.
The most trouble-making person was undoubtedly Li Baoyu. After he got off the carriage, he took the noodles and cans from Zhao Jun, and then ran directly to the courtyard without Wang Meilan looking for steps.
At this time, there were only three members of the Zhao family left outside the Li Family Courtyard.
Wang Meilan stared at Zhao Youcai with her eyes and asked coldly: "Are you going to siege?"
Zhao Youcai didn't speak. He only spoke through his nose and responded: "Hmm."
"Oh!" Wang Meilan said angrily: "How many wild boars and blind bears are you hunting all day long?"
Zhao Youcai pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "I didn't hit anything."
"Oops!" When Wang Meilan heard this, she looked even more surprised and asked again: "Are you hunting a tiger? An elephant?"
Zhao Jun could hold it back before, but when Wang Meilan mentioned the elephant, Zhao Jun couldn't help it anymore. He carried his body over, shrugging his shoulders, but still suppressed his displeasure and made a sound. p>
Seeing Zhao Youcai lowering his head and saying nothing, Wang Meilan snorted coldly, turned around and left. Before leaving, she called Zhao Jun and said: "Son, come in quickly and eat."
"Hey!" Zhao Jun agreed, but he was afraid that he couldn't help laughing, so he didn't look at Zhao Youcai and followed Wang Meilan into the yard.
At this time, Zhao Youcai was left alone outside the hospital. When the cold wind blew, Zhao Youcai's stomach growled a few times.
……
When Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun entered the Li family's house, Jin Xiaomei had already cooked the eggplant shreds in the pot and was ladling water into the pot. She only had to wait for the water to boil before the noodles could be cooked.
"Sister-in-law, come into the house quickly." Jin Xiaomei said: "Let Dayong pour you some water."
To be honest, they spent a whole day shopping outside today, but Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei mostly took the car, so they were really not tired.
But after returning home, Wang Meilan was very angry. At this time, she was not polite to Jin Xiaomei and walked into the east room of the Li family.
But Zhao Jun stayed in the outhouse and said to Jin Xiaomei: "Auntie, we won't bother you tonight. Let's sleep all night. When we get up tomorrow morning, Baoyu, Jiechen, I, and we will unload the truck." p>
"Okay." Jin Xiaomei smiled and said to Zhao Jun: "Xiaojun, you also come into the house, the noodles will be cooked in a while."
"Okay."
When Zhao Jun entered the house, he saw Li Dayong holding the cylindrical can of saury and chatting with Wang Meilan.
Swordfish is hairtail. These days, hairtail that can be seen in the Northeast is only available in winter, and it is also shipped frozen.
That's it, it's only available in the town. Small shops in the villages don't dare to buy it.
However, every Chinese New Year, the forest farm will prepare some benefits for employees, sometimes including hairtail.
Therefore, Li Dayong has eaten hairtail before. But this is the first time he has seen this canned hairtail.
Because the canned fish sold in Yong'an Tun is usually made of small yellow croaker.
Seeing Li Dayong holding the tin can in his hand, Zhao Jun suddenly remembered something and asked Li Baoyu beside him: "Baoyu, after finishing the cans we bought last time, do you keep that can?" p>
"Yeah." Li Baoyu nodded and said, "My dad cut one to use as an ashtray, and the rest are kept in the warehouse."
If it is more than ten or twenty years later, the cans will be crushed, discarded or sold as scrap.
But these days, empty cans are also a new thing. The Zhao family and the Li family put them neatly on the shelves in the warehouse.
"Find them all for me tomorrow." Zhao Jun said to Li Baoyu, "I'm useful."
"Hey!" Zhao Jun's words are almost the same as an imperial edict for Li Baoyu. If Zhao Jun says it is useful, then it must be useful.
"Brother Jun." At this time, Li Ruhai came over and said to Zhao Jun with a playful smile: "I think we are buying two more boxes of cans. If you don't have enough of the empty ones I have at home, I will help you drink some more.
”
"You're not needed." Zhao Jun smiled and pushed Li Ruhai away. At this time, Jin Xiaomei came into the back room and asked, "Xiaojun, I just remembered, are our dogs not fed?"
Don’t think about it, you must not have fed it. Zhao Youcai hasn’t caught anything this day, can he still feed the dog?
Zhao Jun looked up at the big clock hanging on the wall and said to Jin Xiaomei: "Auntie, we won't feed them tonight. Get up tomorrow morning and feed them half full. Then, Jie Chen and I will go up the mountain and catch whatever we see."
What."
"Okay." Jin Xiaomei responded, then greeted Li Baoyu and Li Ruhai, saying: "Baoyu, Ruhai, put the table."
The noodles are about to be cooked, and everyone is almost starving. They are busy setting up the kang table and getting bowls and chopsticks.
After the hot soup noodles were in his mouth, Zhao Jun said to Jie Chen: "Jie Chen, let's get up early tomorrow and unload the things in the car. We will set off on time at six o'clock and take the dog up the mountain."
Tomorrow is Monday and Li Baoyu has to go to work, so Zhao Jun didn’t say these words to him.
"What are you doing so early to catch wild boars?" Li Dayong heard this and continued: "You can just go up before driving the wild boars to make their nests."
If ordinary people go to the mountains for siege, there is nothing wrong with starting from home at six o'clock, but they still have to walk for one or two hours into the mountains.
But Zhao Jun has a car, and it only takes half an hour. When he reaches the top of the mountain at 6:30, the dew has not yet dried.
Zhao Jun took a sip of noodles, chewed the noodles and said vaguely: "Go up early tomorrow. I'll walk around the mountain and find a place with a lot of roe deer and big men."
Hearing Zhao Jun's words, it didn't sound like he was trying to escape, so Li Baoyu asked: "Brother, what are you going to do?"
When Zhao Jun heard this, he glanced at the ashtray Li Dayong had made out of empty cans next to him, and then said to Li Baoyu: "I want to catch some jiao (zhuo) feet (jiao), some live roe deer, and some live deer." p>
"Oops!" As soon as Zhao Jun said this, Li Dayong didn't even eat the noodles. He looked at Zhao Jun in surprise and asked, "Are you still going to trick someone?"
"Yeah." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "I learned it from an old man when I was checking rulers on the mountain in the spring."
What Zhao Jun said was pure nonsense, but by saying this, he could arrange a reasonable excuse for the skills he knew.
"Brother Jun!" Jie Chen couldn't help but said: "If we catch them alive, the roe deer and the big man can be sold for a lot of money."
At this time, Li Dayong also put down his chopsticks, looked at Zhao Jun and said: "This old man who knows how to play tricks is extraordinary. In Da Xiaowei, he is the best!"
