Chapter 674. Ma Ling goes to the market and Zhao Jun leaves the camp
Although I don’t know how heavy the sleet will be today, it has been cloudy since the morning. No wonder Wang Meilan is worried about Zhao Jun going out.
But Zhao Jun insisted on going out for a walk, so Wang Meilan went to the east room to get a raincoat for Zhao Jun.
By the time Wang Meilan found the raincoat, Zhao Jun was already at the door.
"Son." When Wang Meilan came out and took a look, she immediately felt something was wrong and asked Zhao Jun, "Don't you carry a gun?"
Zhao Jun took the raincoat, stuffed it into his shoulder pocket, and then said to Wang Meilan: "I'll go to Brother Zhang's house, get his sand gun, and see what gadgets I can sneak back."
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Wang Meilan knew that Zhao Jun was not going to look after Xiong Xiongzi, so she didn't worry about him going out alone.
Zhao Jun opened the door and came out of his house. When the dogs in the yard saw that he was wearing clothes for going up the mountain, they thought he was going to fight for a siege today. Regardless of the weather, they jumped up one by one in a hurry, barking or snorting. People have human speech, and animals have animal speech.
Although the dogs in the Li family's courtyard next door did not see Zhao Jun, they all became restless when they heard the barking of the dogs in the courtyard.
It stands to reason that the two hunting dogs went up the mountain the day before yesterday and followed Zhao Youcai for two consecutive battles. They rested at home for a day yesterday. Logically speaking, the excitement should not be so high. But the two battles the day before yesterday made these dogs feel aggrieved. Today
I really want to follow Zhao Jun up the mountain and have a good time.
But Zhao Jun couldn't understand the intentions of these dogs for a while, and today's weather was not suitable for siege, so Zhao Jun only untied Qinglong and took it out of the yard.
He led Qinglong all the way to Zhang Yuanmin's house. He didn't plan to go into the mountains today. At most, he would just hang around and look at the pheasants, and shoot them if they were gray-skinned.
But whether it's a semi-automatic rifle or the barrel-mounted gun placed in Li Baoyu's place, they all fire 7.62 bullets. Once shot, these gadgets will probably be gone.
Therefore, Zhao Jun went to Zhang Yuanmin's house and borrowed his long-sight No. 16 shotgun.
That shotgun can shoot sand bullets and solitaires. When hunting big animals like wild boars, black bears, roe deer, and deer, use single-point bullets. When hunting small things like pheasants, jumping cats, and greyhounds, use shotgun sand.
bullet.
Today, Zhang Yuanmin, Jie Zhong and Jie Chen went to Lingnan to collect people, and Xiao Lingdang went to school again, leaving Yang Yufeng alone at home.
At this time, Yang Yufeng was feeding geese and ducks in the yard. When Zhao Jun came with the dog, Yang Yufeng hurriedly came over and asked: "Brother, what are you doing here?"
"Go out for a walk." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, give me my eldest brother's gun."
"You can use a gun." Yang Yufeng looked up at the sky and said, "It's raining and snowing today."
"It's okay." Zhao Jun patted his pocket and said, "I have a poncho with me. I'll be back as soon as I can."
"Okay!" After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Yang Yufeng said: "Brother, can I get it for you?"
"Yeah." Zhao Jun nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, please get it for me. There are still bullets."
Yang Yufeng responded and turned around and ran towards the house. After a while, she came out with Zhang Yuanmin's gun and two small cloth bags.
When Yang Yufeng approached, Zhao Jun first took the two bullet bags and tied them one by one around his waist.
These two bullet bags were specially sewn by Yang Yufeng. The mouth of the bag is loose and has a button.
There was a cloth belt sewn on the outside of the bag. Zhao Jun tied the bag around his waist. The bullet bag was hanging under his waist. He could reach out and take out the bullets.
Moreover, these two bullet bags are sewn with different colors of cloth. The blue bag on the left contains sand bullets. The black bag on the right contains single-head bullets.
At this time, there are twenty bullets in each of the two bullet bags.
After Zhao Jun put them on, he stretched the corners of his coat down and covered the bullet bag.
Then, Zhao Jun took the gun and carried it on his shoulder. After saying goodbye to Yang Yufeng, he led Qinglong all the way north.
Along the way, Zhao Jun put his hands in his pockets and did not lead the dog, letting Qinglong run around and lift his legs to urinate. He walked all the way north, and after passing through several houses, he heard someone calling him from the west: "Zhao Jun!"<
/p>
Hearing the sound, Zhao Jun and Qinglong both followed the sound. This dog is also smart. It hears people calling Zhao Jun every day and knows that this is the name of its master.
When Zhao Jun saw the person shouting, he immediately raised his arm with a smile, waved twice at the person, and then trotted towards him.
Upon seeing this, Qinglong wanted to leave a scent under the big willow tree, so he quickly followed it.
Zhao Jun came to Ma Ling and asked with a smile: "What are you doing? It's going to rain soon."
Ma Ling also smiled at Zhao Jun and replied: "There is an episode today, I'll go over and take a look."
Speaking of this, Ma Ling looked down at the green dragon next to Zhao Jun's legs, then looked up at the gun Zhao Jun was carrying, and asked: "Are you going to hunt today?"
"Ah." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "I don't have much fun at home, so I thought I would take a walk around the village."
With that said, Zhao Jun glanced at Ma Ling on her way and asked again: "Are you going to do the episode yourself?"
Zhao Jun thought about it. If Ma Ling was alone, he would send the dog home and accompany Ma Ling to a market.
But Ma Ling smiled and said: "My mother will go too."
After saying that, Ma Ling also glanced back, but she didn't see Wang Cuihua, so she turned back to Zhao Jun and said, "My mother... will have to wait a while to catch up with me."
Zhao Jun smiled. He knew his mother-in-law very well. Not to mention the conditions at Wang Cuihua's family, the key was that this person was very particular about her clothes.
For example, if she was going to the market today, she would have to find all the clothes she could wear, try them on one by one, and finally decide on the one that she liked the most today.
Fortunately, her character was not passed on to Ma Ling. On the contrary, Ma Ling was troubled by her mother's grinding since she was a child, which also developed the girl's impatience, which can be said to be as jealous as hatred.
No, originally the two of them agreed to go to the market together, and they would go early and come back early to save themselves from the rain and snow.
But Ma Ling waited and waited, and Wang Cuihua lingered in the room. Ma Ling couldn't stand it anymore, so she decided to meet Wang Cuihua at the market.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Regarding his future mother-in-law, Zhao Jun certainly could not say anything treacherous, so he only asked Ma Ling: "What are you and my aunt going to buy? Will there be any for sale today?"
"Yes!" Ma Ling nodded and said, "I agreed with them that day to bring it to me today."
Under Zhao Jun's curious eyes, Ma Ling explained to Zhao Jun: "I'm thinking about buying some wool and knitting a sweater for my dad..."
At this point, Ma Ling lowered her voice and continued: "I'll knit you another neckband."
Neck gaiter, similar to a scarf.
It's just that a scarf is a very long piece that goes around the neck in a circle. A neck gaiter is a circle that goes in from the top of the head and around the neck, so it got its name.
When she said she wanted to give Zhao Jun a gift, Ma Ling seemed a little embarrassed and asked quickly: "What color (sǎi) do you like? There are black ones, gray ones...and yellow ones." p>
"I don't want yellow ones." Zhao Jun said, "I can't wear them if they are too fresh."
"It's not fresh." Ma Ling said, "It's khaki."
"Ah..." Zhao Jun heard this and asked again: "You said you want to knit a sweater for me, Uncle Ma. What color does he want to knit?"
"My dad wants to be black." Ma Ling said with a smile: "He said he would do it."
Carrying the paste means carrying the dirt. These days, people in forest areas do not have the conditions to practice hygiene. It is also difficult to wash clothes in winter. Many people wear shiny clothes.
"Then I want to be gray." When Zhao Jun heard that Ma Dafu wanted to be black, he made a decisive choice. After all, Ma Ling didn't know what a couple's model was, but Zhao Jun did.
Suddenly, Zhao Jun remembered something and hurriedly asked Ma Ling: "How do you sell that thing? Is it not weighed in pounds?"
In her previous life, Ma Ling often knitted sweaters and trousers for Mr. and Mrs. Zhao Jun, so Zhao Jun knew that wool was not cheap.
I remember that in 1993, Ma Ling knitted a big sweater for Zhao Jun. Ma Ling used a full two kilograms of wool for that brown sweater, and it also had twisted patterns on it.
As soon as Zhao Jun put on that sweater, anyone who saw it would take a second look.
But the cost was that the wool needed to buy that sweater cost Zhao Jun one month's salary at the time. For more than sixty yuan, he bought two kilograms of wool, and it only contained 50% wool. Although the wool now is not as expensive as that time, it still costs about ten yuan a pound. Ma Ling wants to knit a neckband for Zhao Jun. It costs more than two taels of wool for thick needles, and three or four taels for fine needles. The money is nothing to Zhao Jun, but Ma Ling doesn't make any money. She helps the family with work and farming. Ma Dafu and Wang Cuihua will give her some, but I guess this girl doesn't have much money now. p>
"It's not a pound." Ma Ling looked at Zhao Jun and said with a smile: "I will knit a fine needle for you. I will buy four or two threads. If there is any leftover, I will knit you a pair of gloves."
"Oh!" Zhao Jun said happily when he heard this: "That's great!"
I'm happy, but Zhao Jun can't give Ma Ling money. This girl is different from Li Ruhai. If Zhao Jun wants to give her money, Ma Ling will not only not be happy, but will fall out on the spot.
After hearing Zhao Jun's promise, Ma Ling smiled happily and said: "I will knit it for you first, and the scarf will be finished in a few days. Then you can wear it when you go up the mountain, so that the wind will not hurt your neck."
"Yeah." Zhao Jun nodded with a smile and said, "That's good."
Ma Ling smiled faintly and was about to speak when Zhao Jun said: "My aunt is here."
Ma Ling turned around and saw Wang Cuihua walking quickly this way.
"Auntie!" Zhao Jun greeted Wang Cuihua when he was far away. Wang Cuihua saw Zhao Jun and shouted with a smile: "What are Zhao Jun doing?"
"Walking around."
As soon as Zhao Jun replied, Wang Cuihua said: "Don't run too far, go early and come back early."
Hearing the words "Go early and come back early" coming out of Wang Cuihua's mouth, Ma Ling couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Zhao Jun exchanged pleasantries with Wang Cuihua and then watched her and Ma Ling leave. Then, Zhao Jun put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the north exit of the village.
……
When Zhao Jun walked out of Yong'antun, Zhao Youcai and others had already boarded the commuter bus.
Li Ruhai was a little unusual today. He did not sit with Zhao Youcai and the others, nor did he join in the crowd.
He sat alone in the row behind Zhao Youcai and the others.
The child didn't dare to sit in front of Li Dayong because he was afraid that his father would sneak up on him from behind. Now he is no longer afraid, but Li Ruhai still felt uneasy and was always on edge.
As colleagues got on the bus one after another, someone had noticed something strange about Li Ruhai. Both sides of the child's cheeks were swollen, as if someone had slapped him.
But Li Dayong and Li Baoyu were both there, and no one came to talk. Only Zhang Laifa looked back at Li Ruhai from time to time, and then smiled with gloating.
The key is that he gloated and let Li Ruhai see it, which made Li Ruhai grit his teeth.
At this time, Han Dachun walked behind. He had a good relationship with Zhao Youcai, and he was also good with Li Dayong.
When Han Dachun came over, Li Dayong raised his hand to signal him. Han Dachun nodded and smiled, and then sat next to Li Ruhai.
"Uncle Han!" Someone came, and Li Ruhai suddenly felt more at ease. He stood up from his seat and stretched out his hands to Han Dachun.
This made Han Dachun stunned. He held Li Ruhai's hand and sat down next to him. Just as Li Dayong turned around, Han Dachun asked in a low voice: "Dayong, what are you doing? Why are you beating the child?"
There were so many people in the car who blushed when they saw Li Ruhai, but no one came to ask except Han Dachun.
This is because if you ask, you will be suspected of watching the excitement.
But Han Dachun is different. They have no children, and they are quite rare towards the children of the Zhao and Li families, especially the boys from the two families.
Now that Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu are both grown up, Han Dachun is particularly interested in Li Ruhai.
"No." Before Li Dayong could speak, Li Ruhai hurriedly took over the conversation and said, "My dad didn't hit me."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Han Dachun immediately turned around and looked at Li Ruhai.
And Li Ruhai whispered: "Yesterday... I started fighting with someone."
These days, when children are fighting, no adult can reach out. Therefore, Li Ruhai found such an excuse, thinking that if he said this, Han Dachun would not ask any more questions.
But Han Dachun didn't need to ask at this time. He turned his face and looked directly at Zhang Laifa, who was in front and right.
This kid, Li Ruhai, is quite capable of living in the countryside. Even though he is young, he has to give him some respect, regardless of age or gender. I am afraid that the only ones who can fight Li Ruhai are the two boys from the Zhang family. Zhang Laifa was looking at the excitement when he suddenly met Han Dachun's eyes. Zhang Laifa felt excited and quickly turned his face to the other side.
In the eyes of Han Dachun, his behavior was a sign of guilty conscience, and Han Dachun secretly sneered in his heart.
Han Dachun is not a local, he moved here later. After he moved here, he found someone to arrange for him to live in the forest farm canteen.
At that time, Yongan Forest Farm had only one canteen, and Zhao Youcai, Zhang Zhanshan and Han Dachun all worked together.
At the beginning, Zhang Zhanshan bullied Han Dachun a lot. Later, Zhao Youcai helped Han Dachun once in a fight. From then on, Han Dachun followed Zhao Youcai. Later, Han Dachun even asked his younger brother Han Daming to worship Zhao Youcai as his teacher.
It can be said that the Han brothers are Zhao Youcai's right-hand men in the cafeteria, otherwise Zhao Youcai would not have put his private money in Han Daming's hands.
Over the years, Han Dachun has often fought with Zhao Youcai and Zhang Zhanshan. Now that Zhang Zhanshan has passed away, leaving behind three orphans and widowed mothers, Han Dachun cannot bully Zhang Laifa.
But when he thought that this kid dared to hit Li Ruhai, Han Dachun thought that even if he couldn't do it himself, he still had to say something for Li Ruhai.
So, Han Dachun stared at the back of Zhang Laifa's head and said loudly: "Which little bastard gave us such a beating?"
