Hearing Ma Ling say that she wanted to help him find the dog, Zhao Jun's first reaction was that Ma Ling learned the whereabouts of the black tiger from others, and immediately got off the kang, pulled on her shoes and ran outside the house.
When Zhao Jun came out of the yard, he saw Ma Ling standing under a big tree not far away, smiling at him and waving to him.
Zhao Jun trotted to Ma Ling and asked, "Did you help me find the dog?"
"No." Ma Ling smiled and shook her head. Seeing Zhao Jun's surprise, she explained: "But I can help you find it."
"What?" Zhao Jun felt a little confused whether he hadn't woken up or something.
Ma Ling smiled and said, "Follow me to Mrs. Han's house, and I'll ask her to do the math for you."
Zhao Jun was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he quickly stopped Ma Ling and said, "You can pull her down. That old lady Han is just fooling people all day long."
"It can't be..." Ma Ling's eyes widened in shock at Zhao Jun's words, and she murmured: "I feel like she is nothing, her calculations are pretty accurate."
"Huh?" When Zhao Jun heard what she said, he was still wondering if there was something wrong with his ears. If I remember correctly, in her last life, Ma Ling often said that the old lady Han's fortune telling was nothing.
Hasn’t this girl suffered a loss in this regard?
When Zhao Jun thought about it, he believed that it was his duty to persuade Ma Ling to abandon feudal superstition. If nothing else, the key was a waste of money.
Thinking of this, Zhao Jun asked Ma Ling inquiringly: "You said she calculated it accurately for you, but let's take a look, what did the old lady Han calculate for you?"
"This..." When asked by Zhao Jun, Ma Ling seemed a little embarrassed. She lowered her head slightly, her face was red, and she rubbed her clothes with her little hands. She didn't say anything for a long time.
Zhao Jun was startled and felt something was wrong, so he stretched out his hand, tapped Ma Ling's elbow twice with his index finger, and asked urgently: "What did the old lady Han say?"
"She said..." Ma Ling turned around and turned her back to Zhao Jun. She held her braid with one hand and rubbed the hair at the bottom of the braid with the other. Her voice was as thin as a mosquito and she whispered: "She said that we are together.
It’s a good marriage.”
These words made Ma Ling speak softer and quieter, but Zhao Jun was not far from her and heard them clearly.
Zhao Jun understood what was going on. Before the two got married in their last life, Ma Ling also asked the old lady Han for a fortune telling, and the old lady Han said the same thing. As a result, her life was miserable, and Ma Ling decided that the old lady was not good at telling fortunes.
No.
It's up to you to have feelings.
Zhao Jun shook his head helplessly, but the mistakes that should be corrected still had to be corrected. So, he straightened his back and said to Ma Ling shamelessly: "We have a good marriage, do you need her to say that? I am a young man.
, you can have whatever you want. You girl, you have to have looks, you have character, you have character, who can’t see that we two are so good?"
Ma Ling blushed when Zhao Jun praised her, but then she thought about it and realized that Zhao Jun was right.
Seeing Ma Ling slightly dazed, Zhao Jun struck while the iron was hot and persuaded: "Let's not talk about anything else. If those gadgets from the old lady's house were really powerful, could someone have cleaned them up like that ten years ago?" p>
After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Ma Ling turned around and looked at Zhao Jun with her beautiful eyes wide open. At this moment, she felt that what Zhao Jun said made sense.
Seeing that Ma Ling didn't speak, Zhao Jun continued: "Look, old Mrs. Han always says she knows how to do this and can break that. She and her son haven't been in contact with each other for many years, why doesn't she break it for herself?
?"
Zhao Jun's question stopped Ma Ling again. Indeed, old Mrs. Han didn't even understand her own family's affairs, how could she care about other people's affairs?
At this time, Zhao Jun said to Ma Ling again: "Look, how can any of the girls in our village who are as big as you believe this? If you believe this, don't let others make irresponsible remarks or point fingers.
Did you order it?"
When Ma Ling heard this, she immediately raised her head and looked at Zhao Jun nervously.
The era is different and the environment is different. In rural areas at this time, as long as the family is not a rotten family, they all care about whether others will poke their spine in the back.
Although those traditional feudal things are not illegal at the moment, the ten years of violent storms have just passed, and people in the mountains are still frightened. They are still quite taboo, otherwise Han Shang would not stop walking with his parents.<
/p>
Thinking of this, Ma Ling couldn't help but feel annoyed and a little scared. She was afraid that if people in the village really talked about her, the Zhao Jun family would dislike her because of this.
If you are really rejected because of your husband's family, can you still get married? This time is not like in the future, nothing is easier than getting married or getting divorced.
These days, just like Zhao Jun and Ma Ling, two young people are engaged. If one party breaks off the engagement, all the villages in the world will know about it. No matter what the reason is, if the woman's engagement is broken off, it will be very difficult to find her husband's family in the future.<
/p>
Moreover, even if they are married, if the old Zhao family is discussed by the villagers because of this matter, how will they deal with the parents-in-law?
Thinking of this, Ma Ling's pretty face gradually turned pale. When Zhao Jun saw this, he quickly comforted him: "I have no other intentions, the key is to consider you. You said that in our village, these girls are as big as you, then
The longest one is the most beautiful."
"Huh?" Zhao Jun's sudden change of topic made Ma Ling at a loss for a moment, but as she reacted, her pretty face turned red, like a ripe red apple.
Zhao Jun smiled and said: "How can a beautiful girl like you believe that? We don't care about that. Let's just live our own lives."
"Yes, I remember!" Ma Ling felt a little relieved after hearing this, her head became a little heavy, and she said: "Let's live a good life!"
As soon as this place appeared, Ma Ling came to her senses instantly. She was being too unreserved, so she quickly left a few words to Zhao Jun and ran away.
Looking at Ma Ling's leaving figure, Zhao Jun let out a sigh of relief. It is estimated that Ma Ling can save a lot of money between now and her wedding.
Zhao Jun returned to the house and looked at his watch. It was not yet one o'clock in the afternoon. But now that everyone was up, Zhao Jun did not intend to sleep anymore. He wanted to go to the southern land to see. If he arrived in the southern land, he could not find him yet.
If it's a tiger, then he will go to 42 Lengchang tomorrow to take a look.
Although he didn't think that the black tiger was stolen, he looked all over the village and couldn't find it, so he went to 42 Lengchang. If he was sure that it wasn't there, he would feel at ease.
So, Zhao Jun called Jie Chen, and the two of them headed all the way to the southern land. At this time, in the shack of the leader of 42 Lengchang, four people, Zhang Laibao, Xu Guohua, Jiang Ershuan and Zheng Jinming, got up from the kang.
They were so scared last night that they didn't sleep all night. At about four o'clock this morning, the dogs stopped barking, and they sat on the kang to watch for a while. After six o'clock, the four of them went to bed one after another.
It was already noon when he woke up, and Zhang Laibao couldn't go up the mountain. He went out to see the black tiger first. When he saw the black tiger wagging its tail at him, Zhang Laibao reached out and touched the big head of the black tiger and said "good dog".<
/p>
Then, Zhang Laibao went to see his green dog, black dog and two little black bears. From yesterday noon to now, the four of them were hungry, with their chests pressed against their backs. But Zhang Laibao still didn't let them eat enough, and only ate a little.
Share the potatoes with them.
But for Heihu, Zhang Laibao was really interested and gave Heihu all the wild boar ribs left over from yesterday's shave.
Xu Guohua also wondered how unfair it was for Zhang Laibao to feed the dog like this. But Zhang Laibao said that the black tiger was new and it must be fed well, otherwise it would not be properly fed.
What Zhang Laibao said makes sense, but the dogs and bears he raised were unbalanced. After they finished eating the potatoes in the basin, they licked their lips and watched the black tiger chew the bones.
It stands to reason that Xu Guohua has to go home today. But the east side where the dog bit him last night is the only way for him to return to Yong'antun. Now let Xu Guohua go home, and Xu Guohua will say nothing.
Zhang Laibao asked Jiang Ershuan to send Xu Guohua back, but Jiang Ershuan said nothing and did nothing. Xu Huaguo was afraid. Isn't he not afraid anymore?
Zhang Laibao saw that Jiang Ershuan was afraid, so he said that he would give Jiang Ershuan the gun to carry, but Jiang Ershuan still refused. He said that if the claws were really big, they would be useless even if they were broken!
Zhang Laibao had no choice but to keep Xu Guohua for one more night. This afternoon, the four people in Lengchang were all nervous. No matter what the dog barked for, they were all afraid.
And this afternoon, Zhao Jun was not idle either. He was looking for conciliators in the southern land until he met Zhang Yuanmin and Yang Yufeng who were working in the fields. The two of them did not even do farm work and accompanied Zhao Jun in the fields.
Looking for a dog.
They searched until about four o'clock in the afternoon, but could not find the black tiger. After Zhao Jun and others met, when he saw Zhang Yuanmin, he shook his head and said to Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother, I have been so busy today that I forgot, last year
You and your co-workers fought against those two gangsters, but I took them to Lingnan and sold them. The money is still in my hands. I have been looking for a dog since I came back last night, and I haven't spared the time to deliver it to you."<
/p>
Hearing this, Zhang Yuanmin waved his hand and said, "Brother, let's not talk about money for now. Let's look for the dog first. That's it for today. Tomorrow you can look for it wherever you want. My eldest brother will go with you."
"Sister-in-law, I'll go look for you too." Yang Yufeng echoed from the side.
Zhao Jun nodded, and then said to Yang Yufeng: "Sister-in-law, you can stay at home and work tomorrow. My eldest brother can follow me, and we will go into the mountains."
When Yang Yufeng heard this, she still said: "I can also go into the mountains. I picked mushrooms, schisandra and other things every day a while ago. I am no worse than your elder brother when I run in the mountains."
"No, no." These were not outsiders, so Zhao Jun explained directly to them: "I want to go to 42 Lengchang tomorrow."
After saying that, seeing everyone confused, Zhao Jun explained the relationship between Jiang Ershuan, the leader of 42 Lengchang, and Zhang Zhanshan.
After Zhang Yuanmin listened, he said to Zhao Jun as if he had some understanding: "Brother, don't tell me, what you are thinking about is not impossible!"
When Zhao Jun heard this, he asked: "What's going on?"
Zhang Yuanmin said: "Zhang Laibao has not been at home these days. I heard the second son of the Xu family who works behind our family said that Zhang Laibao seems to have gone into the mountains and is not going to any farm!"
"Oops!" As soon as Zhang Yuanmin said this, Jie Chen interjected: "Brother Jun, maybe it was the roast chicken Zhang who did it!"
Zhao Jun thought that Zhang Laibao had already entered the mountain, so he was not the one who stole the dog, but the old Zhang family were not good birds. Although Zhang Zhanshan fell, there were still Xu Meihua and Zhang Laifa.
In Northeastern dialect, these two girls are called: mice with chicken feathers stuck in their tails. They are not good birds!
"Brother!" Seeing that Zhao Jun was silent, Zhang Yuanmin said from the side: "We are going tomorrow, don't we have to bring anything to the trouble?"
Zhao Jun blinked and said to Zhang Yuanmin thoughtfully: "Brother, you bring an invasion knife. You don't have to worry about the rest."
"Sure!" Zhang Yuanmin said: "Then early tomorrow morning, I will go home to find you!"
After discussion, Zhao Jun, Jie Chen, Zhang Yuanmin, and Yang Yufeng parted ways and went back to their respective homes.
When they arrived at home, Wang Meilan, who was cooking in front of the stove, saw them coming back and looked outside the house. She didn't see Black Tiger, so Wang Meilan sighed softly.
Zhao Jun didn't say anything. He returned to his room, lay down on the kang, put his head on his hands, and looked at the roof without saying a word.
Jie Chen didn't know what to say, so he accompanied Zhao Jun quietly. At this time, the aroma of meat came from the outhouse, and Wang Meilan was cooking braised bear meat in the big pot.
At half past six, Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, and Li Baoyu arrived home from get off work.
The three of them entered Zhao's courtyard together, but seeing that Black Tiger did not come back, Li Dayong climbed over the wall and returned to his home.
When Zhao Youcai and Li Baoyu entered the room, Li Baoyu and Wang Meilan said hello and ran to the back room. Zhao Youcai followed Li Baoyu instead. However, Zhao Youcai entered Zhao Jun's room and only said a few words to the minister before going to check on him.
It's dark.
Li Baoyu sat on the edge of the Kang and asked Jie Chen about the day and his plans for tomorrow. When he heard that Zhao Jun was going to No. 42 Lingchang tomorrow and the reason, Li Baoyu clapped his thigh in annoyance and said to Zhao Jun: "Brother, I
The team has a mission tomorrow and I can’t go with you!"
"It's okay." Zhao Jun said: "With Jiechen and Brother Zhang, the three of us are enough."
"Then don't drive there!" Suddenly, Zhao Youcai interrupted, making Zhao Jun startled. Then Zhao Youcai said again: "If you want to drive away, you can listen to the traffic from a long way away. They
What if you are still on guard? Go over there quietly, and when you see the dog there, catch him. Then, kill them to death."
Zhao Youcai's words made Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu and Jie Chen nod their heads. Wang Meilan, who had appeared at the door at some time, raised the corners of her mouth slightly after hearing this.
Zhao Jun ate a lot of this meal tonight. After the meal, he washed up, washed his feet, and went to sleep on the kang.
Zhao Jun, who had been tired for a day, quickly fell asleep. Zhang Laibao, who was in 42 Lengchang, like Zhao Jun, also took off his clothes early, got on the kang, and fell asleep.
Although Zhang Laibao got up late today, sleeping during the day and sleeping at night are different. He didn't sleep well last night, and Zhang Laibao was not energetic all day.
Not only him, but also Xu Guohua, Jiang Ershuan, and Zheng Jinming. The four of them simply drank a sip of wine at night and fell asleep due to the drunkenness.
But not long after they fell asleep, the black tiger outside moved his ears and heard only the sound of snoring inside. Then he looked at the lights and turned them off. There was only moonlight and starlight around him, and he bared his teeth at Zhang Laibao's black dog. "Woohoo...hoo..." As soon as the black tiger's demonstration sounded, the black dog got excited, got up and barked at the black tiger.
"Woof! Woof! Woof..." The barking of dogs pierced the night sky. The surrounding cicadas, insects, and night birds were not as loud as this sound.
When the dog barked, the four people sleeping in the shack suddenly woke up!
