Chapter 769. The Shao family sends ginseng and the card game begins
Song Changhai's words stunned Zhao Jun. They all said that generals would inevitably die before the battle, and few hunting dogs that went up the mountain could live a safe life.
Today you go up the mountain to eat meat, but tomorrow you may be buried under the roots of a pine tree. This is the life of a hunting dog.
The key is that people's feelings towards guard dogs and hunting dogs these days are different from people's feelings towards pet dogs ten or twenty years later.
The hunting people all love dogs, and they will cry when their hunting dog dies for many years, but it is impossible to ask them to feed the dogs with sticks.
Therefore, even Huang Gui and Zhang Yuanmin could not understand Zhao Jun's idea.
As for why Zhao Jun has this idea, it has nothing to do with his past life. He just wants to do whatever he thinks of.
At this time, Zhao Jun did not answer Song Changhai's words, because he knew that no matter what he said, Song Changhai and the others would not be able to understand.
So, Zhao Jun changed the subject and said to Song Changhai with a smile: "I'll go over and take a look first. If his house has those Erjiazi and lampstands, they shouldn't be too expensive, so I'll buy a seedling."
"That can't happen." Song Changhai shook his head and said, "Their gang brought out the small pieces of dough and secretly found a place to bury them."
"It's okay. If you have it, you'll have it. If you don't have it, pull it down." After Zhao Jun finished speaking, he raised his hand and gestured outwards, and then said to the old lady: "Song Nai, I'll go first, don't worry."
"Okay, okay!" the old lady responded cheerfully, flicked her tobacco bag hanging on the pot, and said, "I'll smoke a cigarette first."
Zhao Jun greeted Song Changhai, Song Gang and his son again, then went out with Huang Gui, Zhang Yuanmin and Jie Chen and went straight to Lao Shao's house.
After Zhao Jun went out, Song Changhai stretched his neck and glanced out the window. When he saw Zhao Jun and the others walking out of the hospital, he turned back and said to Song Gang who was beside him: "This young man is quite honest. Son, in the future you should make more friends with such people."
."
"Second brother!" As soon as Song Changhai finished speaking, Song Lan said from the side: "You think people are so accurate. This little brother is so benevolent and righteous, Li Song, you know, right?"
"Ah!" After hearing this, the three generations of the Song family immediately gathered together to listen to Song Lan's story about how Zhao Jun rescued Li Song's daughter in a righteous way.
……
They all lived in the same village, and Zhao Jun and others soon arrived at Lao Shao's house.
As they approached the Shao family compound, the group met Shao Zhiqiang coming out of the hut.
"Ah, Brother Huang!" Shao Zhiqiang called Huang Gui, then raised his hand to greet Zhao Jun and others, and asked: "What are you doing here?"
"Are you going to your house?" Huang Gui said when he saw Shao Zhiqiang was stunned, he pointed at Zhao Jun and said: "My brother wants to buy Miao Bangchui, why don't you come to him?"
"Ah!" Shao Zhiqiang smiled when he heard this, raised his hand and gestured to his courtyard: "Quick, let's go into the house."
Shao Zhiqiang let several people into the house, and just in time the Shao family members were there. After greeting each other, Shao Yunjin seemed to have a special regard for Zhao Jun. He didn't ask about Huang Gui, but asked Zhao Jun: "Boy, didn't you go up the mountain today?"<
/p>
"No, let's take a rest today." Zhao Jun smiled faintly, and Shao Zhiqiang continued: "Zhao Jun said he wanted a mallet."
"Ah." Shao Yunjin nodded twice and asked Zhao Jun: "What do you want a mallet for?"
Zhao Jun did not say that he wanted to buy Bangchui to make soup for the dog. He only said: "Old man, I am looking for a prescription for the whole Miao Bangchui."
Upon hearing this, Shao Yunjin turned to Shao Zhiqiang and said: "Zhiqiang, what do you think this child wants? You can get it for him."
Nowadays, the two old men of the Shao family are no longer in the family, and the person in charge of the Shao family's ginseng gang is Shao Zhiqiang. All the dried ginseng in the Shao family is now in the hands of Shao Zhiqiang.
"Okay, sir." Shao Zhiqiang responded to Shao Yunjin, and then asked Zhao Jun: "Zhao, what do you want to use it for? Grinding powder, soaking wine? Or making soup like my brother Huang?"<
/p>
"Make soup." Zhao Jun gestured to Huang Gui beside him and said with a smile: "This is what my brother gave me."
Zhao Jun thought, the big black tiger was about to catch up with an adult when he saw it running 120 pounds, so he gave it Huang Gui's dosage of medicine. Once it was cured, it would be fine.
Even if it can’t be cured, I tried my best!
As soon as Shao Zhiqiang heard Zhao Jun's needs, he blinked quickly and said to Zhao Jun: "Just in time, I still have a bastard in my hand, seventy or eighty years old. When lifting the ginseng, the apprentice was young and had to be shaved.
Broken."
Having said this, Shao Zhiqiang shook his head slightly and said: "But it won't affect the efficacy of the medicine. We can use it at home without any problem."
"That's great!" Shao Zhiqiang thought Zhao Jun didn't understand, but Zhao Jun knew how to use sticks.
Ginseng is sold in appearance, but in terms of medicinal uses, even if the whiskers of this seedling are broken off, it will not affect the medicinal efficacy of ginseng.
However, cut-off ginseng cannot be sold at a high price due to the difference in quality. Such sticks are cheap and affordable, which means they are cost-effective.
At this time, Shao Yunjin waved his palm towards Shao Zhiqiang and said: "Go and get it (qiu) back and forth."
Shao Zhiqiang agreed and came back soon with a small red cloth bag. When he arrived in front of the kang, he saw Shao Yunjin reaching out to him.
Without saying a word, Shao Zhiqiang placed the red cloth bag in Shao Yun's golden palm. The old man put the red cloth bag on the Kang table and opened the bag with one hand to reveal a ginseng.
Shao Yunjin held the reed head and held the ginseng in front of his eyes. He only glanced at it and put it down again. Then he folded the corner of the red cloth over the ginseng and pushed it towards Zhao Jun.
"Boy." Shao Yunjin said to Zhao Jun: "Do you think it's okay?"
"Okay!" Zhao Jun said directly to Shao Yunjin without even looking at it: "Old man, you always say it's okay, then it must be okay."
After saying this, Zhao Jun faced Shao Zhiqiang and said: "Uncle Shao, that's it. See how much we cost, and I'll give it to you."
"This..." Shao Zhiqiang just started to speak, but he saw Shao Tianpeng shaking his head at him. When Shao Zhiqiang was stunned, he heard Shao Yunjin say: "Boy, you think this mallet is good, just take it away."
"Ah?" Zhao Jun was startled and looked at Shao Yunjin. He murmured in his heart. The old man wanted to give this mallet to him, but he didn't have such a big problem with him! p>
To say that Zhang Yuanmin rescued his lost great-grandson, it would be enough if Shao Jun was the only child of the old Shao family. But Zhang Yuanmin is Zhang Yuanmin, and Zhao Jun is Zhao Jun. If Zhao Jun wants to take advantage, he can let Zhang Yuanmin come forward.
Buy it, you will definitely save a lot.
But Zhao Jun disdained to do such a thing, and he did not dare to accept Shao Yunjin's kindness at this time.
"Old Master." Zhao Jun smiled at Shao Yunjin and said, "No reward for no merit."
Shao Yunjin chuckled and said, "You saved my sister yesterday, and I thank you for that."
"Huh? Ah!" Zhao Jun turned around and saw that the girl Shao Yunjin was talking about was Mrs. Song. It turned out that the old lady sent the ginseng because of the old lady.
"Old man." At this time, Zhao Jun felt that the matter was difficult to handle. He shook his head and said: "Second Uncle Song thanked me yesterday and invited us to his house for dinner."
"He's the one who's grateful, and I'm the one who's grateful." Shao Yunjin said to Zhao Jun seriously: "That little old lady, look how skinny she is, she's so kind to me, I..."
At this point, Shao Yunjin smacked his lips and then continued: "At our age, there is nothing we can do whether we die or not, but I can't watch her die in front of my eyes."
Hearing what Shao Yunjin said, Zhao Jun lamented the friendship between the two old men, but it felt wrong for him to hold back the stick like this.
"Take it, kid." At this time, Shao Tianpeng spoke beside him, and then saw him reaching out to hold the red cloth, holding the ginseng in his hand, wrapping the ginseng in the red cloth, and placing it in front of Zhao Jun, and said: "
What we carry in the mountains is not worth much."
This old man is so loud that he is almost catching up with Wang Meilan!
"Old Master, Master Shao." Zhao Jun said to the two old men of the Shao family: "I have to say something, where is this mallet... I am not eating for others, I have a lame dog, and I am very curious about that dog.
..."
"Okay! Okay!" Before Zhao Jun could finish speaking, Shao Yunjin raised his hand and interrupted: "I don't care about you, you are feeding dogs or pigs, that is your business.
”
After saying that, Shao Yunjin pointed at the small red cloth bag on the corner of the Kang table and said, "Take it."
"Thank you, old man." After saying this, Zhao Jun did not refuse.
This seedling stick costs about one hundred yuan. Zhao Jun is going to go up the mountain to catch a wild boar for Lao Shao's family tomorrow. Isn't it much better to use such a favor than to buy ginseng with money?
"Huh?" Suddenly, Shao Jun raised his hand and pointed out the window and said: "The old Song family car is here!"
Everyone heard the sound and looked out the window, just in time to see Song Changhai helping the old lady out of the car.
Zhang Yuanmin glanced at Zhao Jun and said to himself: "Don't you tell the old lady to come back in half an hour?"
Zhao Jun frowned and thought to himself: "This old lady must be waiting in a hurry. Okay, she's here."
This old lady was an honored guest to the Shao family. Shao Tianpeng and Shao Zhiqiang went out to greet her. When they invited the old lady into the house, Lin Yueying and Shao Jun were waiting outside.
Zhao Jun and others also went to the kang. Only Shao Yunjin sat firmly on the kang and waited for the old lady to enter the room before he said, "Are you here to do it?"
"I'm here to watch the cards with you." When the old lady spoke, she had already reached the edge of the kang. Shao Tianpeng stepped forward to lend a hand, and together with Song Changhai, he helped the old lady onto the kang.
The old lady sat cross-legged across from Shao Yunjin, put down the big pipe and pot on the kang table, and said: "Last night, when I was just getting excited about playing cards, I asked the old boy to scream 'Oo Yao' to scare me away.
”
"Ah," Shao Yunjin said, "I sat next to you, and when I saw you, you passed by in a flash."
"Go to the other side! You're so stupid!" The old lady said angrily: "You old fool, you won three hundred horses from me yesterday. How did you expect to win?"
"Then there's no need to think about it?" Shao Yunjin said proudly: "If you lose, I will win."
When the two old men were bickering, everyone onlookers were smiling. At this time, the old lady took advantage of the situation and said, "Should I let you win? I will win everything back for you today!"
"Oh, today..." Shao Yunjin frowned and said, "Xiao Tang is here to see the health center, isn't he? Why do you think you came to my house? If we want to see the cards, we have to go to his place!"
”
Speaking of this, Shao Yunjin looked aside, pointed at Shao Zhiqiang and said, "How about letting my grandson come up?"
"Your grandson?" The old lady glared at Shao Yunjin and said angrily: "You, your grandson, and your son, if you three beat me, how much will I lose?"
"Hahaha..." Shao Yunjin laughed, and pointed at Song Changhai and said: "The waiter can't do it either. Doesn't his butt hurt after sitting for a long time?"
Hearing what Shao Yunjin said, Zhao Jun and Zhang Yuanmin both looked at Song Changhai. Yesterday, Song Changhai said that he couldn't sit down. Zhao Jun thought he had a bad waist, but when the old man said that his butt hurt, this...
Song Changhai and Zhao Jun looked at each other and immediately said without any hesitation: "I used to drive a tractor while driving in the brigade, but then I got hemorrhoids."
There’s nothing bad to say about this. These days, if you drive a tractor, a pole machine, etc., and sit on something cold in the winter, it’s strange that you won’t get hemorrhoids for a long time.
"This is a good idea." Zhao Jun continued: "Uncle Song, look at who is picking badgers. You want him to have a big badger. Pull the skin off and use it as a cushion. After that, oil the badger to make it bigger.
It’ll be fine next spring.”
"Really?" Song Changhai's eyes lit up when he heard this and said, "Then I have to try."
At this time, Zhao Jun was waiting for the old lady to let him join the card game. He just spoke just to attract everyone's attention so that the old lady could direct her words towards him.
But at this moment, Shao Yunjin raised his hand and pressed it to Song Changhai, saying: "Try it, it can be taken internally or externally, I think it will work."
When the old man said these words, no one could react. After about two seconds, the whole room burst into laughter.
Song Changhai was not angry when Shao Yunjin teased him. Instead, he laughed the loudest.
"Old bastard!" The old lady was amused as she banged the cigarette pouch on the corner of the kang table. Then she pointed the cigarette pouch at Shao Yunjin and said, "You are so old and you still don't look old. I'll use the cigarette pouch to grind the pot."
Kill you!"
"Hahaha..." After the old man said his witticism, he was not very happy. When the old lady scolded him, he laughed loudly, and then said: "You have beaten me to death, who will read the cards with you?"
"Who can't watch the cards with me?" The old lady looked aside, pointed at Zhao Jun pretending to be casual, and said: "My child, come here!"
"Ah?" Zhao Jun pretended to be surprised and said: "Me?"
"Yeah!" the old lady said, "It's up to you! Who can't do it by looking at the cards?"
At this time, Zhao Jun looked at Shao Yunjin and asked: "Old man, do you think I can do it?"
Shao Yunjin glanced at Zhao Jun and said with a smile: "Can you play?"
"Yes!" Zhao Jun responded: "None of us rural people know how to read cards."
"As long as you know how to do it." Shao Yunjin said: "It makes a difference who I win is?"
After speaking, Shao Yunjin waved to Zhao Jun and said: "Come on, serve!"
Then, Shao Yunjin looked at Shao Zhiqiang and said: "Go, bring the cards back and forth!"
"You two, please don't sit together!" At this time, the old lady pointed at Shao Tianpeng and said, "Tianpeng, sit over there on the edge of the Kang."
"Hey, Auntie, I listen to you." Shao Tianpeng smiled and sat down.
There is a square table with a large piece of deerskin on top, and a small deck of cards fastened on the deerskin.
The small cards are made of the same material as poker, but are narrower and longer than poker. The playing method is similar to mahjong, and there are also cakes, strips, and ten thousand, and there are water margin characters painted on them.
A deck of cards has a total of one hundred and twenty cards. As the saying goes: One hundred and twenty cards can cure illnesses and heal injuries.
At this time, Zhao Jun, Shao Tianpeng, the old lady, and Shao Yunjin were sitting in the southeast, northwest, and the eldest, Shao Yunjin, played the cards counterclockwise, followed by the old lady, Shao Tianpeng, and Zhao Jun.
I have to say that Zhao Jun has so many clever ideas. He and the old lady got off to a good start in the first game!
