When Zhao Jun said he wanted to borrow a gun, Mrs. Zhou was stunned on the spot. She looked Zhao Jun up and down.
At this time, Sister-in-law Zhou was a little confused about Zhao Jun's thoughts. In her opinion, Zhao Jun was so young that he didn't look like he could shoot a gun.
Then what does he want to borrow a gun for?
It can’t be said that Zhao Youcai wants to use it, right?
Sister-in-law Zhou thought about it a lot, and there was only one possibility, that is, Zhao Jun wanted their home gun.
But this doesn't make sense.
Because just now I wanted to give the copper gall to Zhao Jun, but Zhao Jun didn't want it. You know, such a big copper gall can be sold for two thousand yuan in the store at the foot of the mountain.
Zhao Jun didn't even want the more valuable bear bile, so how could he want their guns?
"Brother..." Sister-in-law Zhou was a little embarrassed. Zhao Jun saved her man's life today and returned the bear bile to their family. This was definitely a great kindness to the old Zhou family.
Now, this is the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle. Not to mention borrowing it, Mrs. Zhou would be willing to give it to Zhao Jun.
But there is a problem, a gun is a murder weapon. Sister-in-law Zhou is afraid that Zhao Jun is young and inexperienced. What if something happens if something happens to him when he goes out with a gun?
Regardless of whether it hurts someone or herself, as long as something happens to Zhao Jun with this gun, Sister Zhou will never feel at ease in her life.
Sister-in-law Zhou thought about it again and again, but she didn't know what to say. The words of rejection came to her lips several times, but she couldn't say them out.
At this time, Lin Xiangshun, who had been watching with cold eyes, spoke, and he said: "Sister-in-law, if Zhao Jun wants to borrow a gun, then you can lend it to him."
"This..." Sister-in-law Zhou looked at Lin Xiangshun, her eyes full of confusion and confusion.
Lin Xiangshun smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, Zhao Jun knows how to shoot, and even shoot and pick up, he has killed several blind bears."
When Zhao Jun heard this, he laughed and said to Sister-in-law Zhou: "I will only borrow this gun for a few days. When my old brother Zhou recovers, I will send it back to you."
"It's all easy to talk about." Although Sister-in-law Zhou is still a little worried, she can't let Zhao Jun lose face after talking about it, right?
Immediately, she warned Zhao Jun: "Brother, hunting is not like anything else. Look at your brother, isn't it all paid for by the blind bear? You have to pay attention."
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. I'm just wandering around outside the mountain farm, so I may not be able to fight."
A few people chatted for a while, and Zhao Jun and Lin Xiang said goodbye to Sister Zhou. They got into the car, and left the hospital and drove to the mountain farm as Sister Zhou watched them off.
On the way back, Zhao Jun no longer had to take care of Zhou Chengguo, so he sat in the passenger seat. He held the rifle in his arms and kept stroking it with his hands along the way.
Seeing Zhao Jun like this, Lin Xiangshun couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
By the time the car arrived at Zhao Jun's house, it was almost eleven o'clock at night, but Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan were still awake and were waiting for Zhao Jun's return with lights on.
Zhao Jun got out of the car and dragged Lin Xiangshun into his home. You must know that he and Lin Xiangshun had not eaten anything since the afternoon's work. On the way back, Zhao Jun heard Lin Xiangshun's stomach growling.
Although I don’t know if the Lin family’s sister-in-law left food for Lin Xiangshun, but since they have arrived at their doorstep, they cannot let Lin Xiangshun go back hungry.
Seeing Lin Xiangshun and Zhao Jun coming back together, Wang Meilan hurriedly asked Zhao Youcai to set up the Kang table, and then brought them the warm food in the big pot.
The rice was sorghum rice and the vegetables were wild boar stir-fried with sauerkraut. A small pot full of rice and a large pot full of vegetables were all eaten up by the two of them.
After eating and drinking, Lin Xiangshun drove home. Zhao Youcai stared at Zhao Jun with his eyes, which made Zhao Jun's scalp numb.
"Dad, your son has done good things today." Zhao Jun couldn't bear it anymore, so he spoke first.
Zhao Youcai still stared at him intently and asked: "Now that you are causing trouble, are you going to do something big this winter?"
When Zhao Youcai asked him this question, Zhao Jun was happy. He only heard him say: "Dad, your son will go up the mountain and wander around, and come back with some meat to honor your old man."
Hearing this, Zhao Youcai was silent for two seconds before he said, "You also know what Zhou Chengguo is capable of. Just be careful in everything you do."
"I know, Dad."
Zhao Youcai added: "After the New Year, your sister and father-in-law will arrange for you to go to work. Before that, please don't cause any trouble."
"I……"
As soon as Zhao Jun opened his mouth, Wang Meilan walked in from the outhouse and said, "I run into the mountains every day. This time I have a gun, and then my running will be more practical in the future."
Zhao Jun secretly thought something was wrong and hurriedly said: "Dad, Mom, it's almost a little late now. You two should have a rest. My dad will get up early to go to work tomorrow."
"I have to rest. There will be another reception at the venue tomorrow." Zhao Youcai waved his hand at Zhao Jun and said, "Go back to sleep."
"Okay." Zhao Jun jumped up from the kang and ran to his room as if he had been granted amnesty.
"You!" As soon as Zhao Jun left, Wang Meilan immediately lit Zhao Youcai's finger and lectured: "Why don't you give him the gun?"
Zhao Youcai shook his head and said, "With or without a gun, your son would also run into the mountains. It would be safer if he had a gun."
At this point, Zhao Youcai saw what Wang Meilan wanted to say, shook his head and said: "Your son is good at shooting. Maybe he can give you another bear bile one day."
Wang Meilan:……
…
Early the next morning, before Zhao Jun woke up, Li Baoyu hurried into his room.
As soon as he came in, he brought a cool air with him, which made Zhao Jun tremble.
"Brother, why did you come back last night?"
"How is Brother Zhou doing?"
"besides……"
As soon as Li Baoyu came in, he was met with a series of questions. Zhao Jun had no choice but to get up from the kang, wrap himself in a quilt and tell Li Baoyu what happened after yesterday.
But before Zhao Jun could finish speaking, Li Baoyu jumped up from the kang and looked at the wall behind him. Sure enough, there was a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle hanging there.
Li Baoyu stepped forward and took off the gun, holding it in his hand and playing with it.
"Brother, shall we go up the mountain tomorrow?" Li Baoyu asked Zhao Jun excitedly.
"Come on!" Zhao Jun responded, turned around and opened the kang cabinet door behind him, took out a roll of woolen tickets, shook his hands and threw it to Li Baoyu.
"Take these and bring them back in time."
"Okay!" Li Baoyu held a gun in one hand and money in the other and was about to rush out, but was stopped by Zhao Jun.
"Put the gun down."
"Ah!" Li Baoyu laughed and said, "I was so excited that I almost forgot."
After Li Baoyu left, Zhao Jun got up from the kang, washed briefly, and then started to have breakfast.
Before he could finish his meal, Li Baoyu rushed in again, came in front of Zhao Jun, slapped the curly ticket on the table, and took out five bullets from his pocket.
"What's going on?" Zhao Jun was very confused. He got the bullet back, but why didn't he spend any money?
Li Baoyu smiled and said: "The bullet was given by Zhao Jinshan."
"Who?" Zhao Jun asked back. It wasn't that he didn't hear clearly, but he couldn't believe it.
"Zhao Jinshan." Li Baoyu said it again, and explained: "Zhao Jinshan said that he doesn't need money for this bullet, but if we want to shoot a wild boar, we have to give him a wild boar thigh; if we want to kill a bear, we have to give him a wild boar thigh.
