Chapter 89. Persuasion

"Hurry up and pull him down." Upon hearing that Li Baoyu was trying to trick his brother again, Zhao Jun hurriedly stopped him and said, "Ruhai has just been able to go to the ground, so don't harm him."

That day, Li Ruhai secretly followed Zhao Jun, and Li Baoyu went up the mountain, but was beaten so hard by Li Dayong that he couldn't get up from the bed for several days.

"Then you are short of money, what should you do with this dog?" Li Baoyu widened his eyes and asked, "Brother, are you a deadbeat?"

Zhao Jun shook his head, thinking that Wang Dalong's debt was not good, but said: "It's okay, I'll go home and ask my mother for money."

"My aunt..." Li Baoyu hesitated for a moment, but after thinking about it, he still said: "Like my mother, I put the money in their pockets and don't take them out."

"What are you talking about!" Zhao Jun's eyes narrowed when he smiled, but he said: "You can't talk nonsense, what do you do if you drink too much?"

When they arrived at the door, they parted ways and went back to their respective homes.

The family members already knew that they came back late, because Yang Yufeng had personally visited both families before the meal, and invited them to have dinner together at her home.

Neither Zhao nor Li went, but with Yang Yufeng's notice, they didn't have to worry about their son coming back late.

Zhao Jun tied the white dog in Hua'er's kennel. At this time, Hua'er was still recovering from his injuries in the house, so he let the white dog occupy the magpie's nest first.

Then, Zhao Jun came into the house to see Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan.

Seeing her son coming back, Wang Meilan hurriedly poured him a cup of hot water and asked about what happened on the mountain today. After hearing what Minister Li and Li Erchen had done, Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan didn't know what to say.

If you deceive people once, it doesn't matter. If you deceive people again and again, then there is a problem.

However, this time it was not Zhao Jun who was tricked, so Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan just made a few comments and let it go.

Then, Wang Meilan asked Zhao Jun what dishes he had eaten at Zhang Yuanmin's house. When Zhao Jun finished naming the dishes, Wang Meilan was surprised. Eight dishes were enough. The key is that there were six meat dishes in it. This specification was true.

That's enough, but meeting the in-laws is nothing more than that, right?

Seeing that Wang Meilan was in a good mood, Zhao Jun came to her side, put his arm around his mother's shoulders and said, "Mom, do we still have leftovers for soup?"

"Yes." Wang Meilan looked at him in surprise and asked, "What? Didn't you have enough to eat at his house?"

"I'm full." Zhao Jun said: "I brought a dog back, and the dog's belly is still pinched. Mom, you can boil some corn noodles for it, and then order some vegetable soup."

"What the hell?"

When Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan heard this, they both got off the kang, put on their cotton-padded jackets and walked out.

After going out to the courtyard and taking a look, the two came back to the house. Zhao Youcai asked Zhao Jun: "Isn't that the Dalong family's Mengxi Chuanzi? How did you get it back?"

Wang Meilan pulled Zhao Jun and said earnestly: "Son, did you pick it up? Relatives say that if you want to pick up someone else's dog, you have to give it back."

"I didn't pick it up, I bought it."

Zhao Jun took Wang Meilan to sit down and told his parents what happened after meeting Wang Dalong today.

After listening to what Zhao Jun said, Wang Meilan remained silent and said nothing.

Seeing my mother like this, Zhao Jun also felt dizzy.

He was just about to give some persuasion, but unexpectedly, Zhao Youcai on the side suddenly spoke.

"Lan, give your son fifty yuan."

"What?"

"What?"

Not only Wang Meilan was surprised, but also Zhao Jun.

Zhao Jun never expected that his father would step forward to support him at this time.

Wang Meilan also didn't expect that she looked at Zhao Youcai in disbelief.

Zhao Youcai said: "Now that your son's fame has spread throughout the forest area, can you still stop him from going up the mountain? If you have a whole lot of dogs, he can work for him, and he can also use his strength."

At this point, seeing that Wang Meilan was still silent, Zhao Youcai said again: "Your son is so good at beating the black blind man. He will have to go out to play the harp in the future. There are too many dogs, at least he can protect him."

When Zhao Youcai said this, Wang Meilan's expression changed.

She had been married to the Zhao family for many years, and her ears were numb from the hunting stories she heard. She knew that the black blind man would knock down the thing when it lay down, and he would lie down wherever he went, waiting for someone to pass by.

It breaks out again and hurts people.

Just like that day, Xing Zhiyong and Li San were chasing a black bear with guns drawn. The black bear suddenly burst out from behind a fallen tree and almost killed them.

But if there were dogs that recognized bears, this would never happen.

Moreover, when a dog is surrounded by danger, the dog will usually protect its owner and will not hesitate to sacrifice its life for this.

Wang Meilan had previously opposed Zhao Jun's hunting, not because of anything else but because she was worried about his safety.

As the saying goes: If the earthen jar is not broken outside the well, the general will inevitably die in battle.

After all, hunting is dangerous. Who can guarantee that nothing will happen to you?

Over the years, many famous gunners have lost their lives in the mountains and forests.

Zhao Jun's marksmanship is good, but how does it compare to Zhou Chengguo?

Wang Meilan also knows that black bears are courageous and lynx skins are valuable, but after all, this is not the time when Zhao Jun and his grandfather hunted. At that time, the elderly had to rely on hunting to support their families.

But now, when I have a serious job and earn less, I am at least stable. Why would I go to the mountains to risk my life with black bears and wild boars?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Youcai stopped hunting after having a son and concentrated on working in the forest farm.

In Wang Meilan's heart, no matter how many black bear gallbladders there are, they are not as important as her own son.

In her opinion, although her family is not rich, they still have enough food and clothing.

Moreover, Zhao Jun will go to work in a forest farm after the new year. It’s still a good job. Isn’t it better than hunting with your head on your back?

Therefore, Wang Meilan has always opposed Zhao Jun's hunting in the mountains.

After the obstruction failed, Wang Meilan chose to confront Zhao Jun by not supporting him.

He holds the financial power, and if he doesn’t provide money, Zhao Jun will have no guns. Without guns, he may just play for fun.

But what Wang Meilan didn't expect was that her son was not ordinary capable. Not only did he have a gun, he also had to recruit soldiers and dogs.

In fact, she was not short of the fifty yuan, but she still wanted to prevent Zhao Jun from developing the hunting business.

It's just that Zhao Youcai is right. It can't be stopped now. In this case, why not make Zhao Jun safer?

Thinking of this, Wang Meilan sighed softly, crossed her legs and got on the kang, opened the kang cabinet door, and took out a thick dozen of money from the bottom of an unoccupied flower mattress.

Under the scorching gazes of Zhao Youcai and Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan counted out fifty yuan and held it in her hand instead of handing it to Zhao Jun.

"Son." Wang Meilan looked at Zhao Jun and asked, "Do you have to give back the gun you have now?"

"Yes." When Wang Meilan asked about the Type 56 semi-automatic, Zhao Jun said without thinking: "As soon as Brother Zhou is discharged from the hospital, I will send it back to him."

"Then mom, give your dad money and let him buy you another gun."
