After squatting with an older brother for a while, Zhang Yu felt that his thighs were numb from squatting.
Fortunately, the wait was not in vain after such a long time, and the prey entered the circle one after another.
The eldest brother took Zhang Yu and started to move. He carefully changed the direction and blocked the way he came from.
"Are you ready?"
"Okay."
The elder brother turned on the flashlight in confusion and shined it at the pheasants not far away. Zhang Yu quickly stretched out the pole and lassoed those pheasants.
Today's new skills in the field, hunting skills, came into use. With the help of the experience bar, the trap was fast and stable, and eight were caught in a few minutes.
Zhang Yu specifically picked male condoms, but there was nothing he could do about it. The male's hair was so beautiful, and under the light of the flashlight, it was much more conspicuous than the female's.
The male is also of a big build, so it was the eldest brother who stopped Zhang Yu in the fight with eight of them.
As a qualified hunter, we all know that when hunting, we usually go for the big ones and leave the small ones behind. This is to not damage the ecological environment and also to ensure that we have something to hunt in the future.
The same goes for pheasants. Although there are quite a lot of them, they can't handle the crowds. It's not just my family who traps pheasants. It's the end of the year, and every household wants to trap a few to satisfy their children's cravings.
The elder brother turned off the flashlight, used sticks and leaves from the ground, tied the eight chickens together, and hung them on Zhang Yu's pole.
"Let's go home. After being out for a while, my feet are freezing."
"That's right, it's better for us to be active, otherwise the cold will get worse."
It's okay if the elder brother doesn't say it. As soon as Zhang Yu said this, he felt that even the cotton-padded jacket couldn't block the cold wind, and the small wind whizzed into his neck.
"Why, it's quite warm here. I heard that old fool say that his family's ancestral home is HLJ. What's the name of that place called JMS City?"
"It's really cold there. It can get as cold as minus 40 degrees at night. It takes a while to go to the hut."
"Don't tell me, the Kang in Lao Hu's house is warm, and I don't know how his house is built. Next year, I will ask Lao Hu to tidy it up for us, and then give him a bottle of the Xifeng wine you brought.
”
These mixed surnames in the village can be found everywhere. Zhang Yu's family is originally from Shandong. Later, the older generation traveled to Guandong and also went to Northeast China. However, when the war broke out and the three northeastern provinces fell, Zhang Yu's ancestors moved their family to Peking.
Settled down around Sijiucheng.
Several other companies also came at this time, but of course they came in different directions.
"Brother, didn't our family also move from the Northeast? Which province was our family originally located in?"
"Hey, I heard this from my father too. Our grandfather's generation went to Liaoning and settled in Dalian, which is still far behind HLJ."
"We only heard a story about that generation. We have never experienced it. I also heard my grandfather say that the sea cucumbers in Liaoning are delicious."
"Can we eat now? We can just listen to these things. We don't need to take it seriously. It's like our ancestral home. We also listen to it and know the name of our roots."
The eldest brother's words are rough but not rough. What the elders say is that they hope that their descendants can return to their roots and don't forget where they come from.
But even if I remember, what can I do? If I want to go back to my ancestral home, I have to wait until after the reform and opening up. It will still be more than ten years. At that time, how many old relatives in my hometown are still alive, and how many people still know about Zhang Yu?
This one.
When the time comes to go back, the most I can do is renew the family tree, and otherwise just start talking nonsense.
While the two were talking, a few more lights lit up in the field, and it looked like they were here to catch pheasants.
The eldest brother said hello to the acquaintances and took Zhang Yu back home.
After returning home, the two brothers didn't kill the pheasants immediately. They just found a high place and hung them up.
One is to prevent weasels from visiting at night, and the other is that Zhang Yu plans to deliver it alive to the master. When the master wants to eat it, he can kill it and eat it now, and the taste will be more delicious.
The next day, Zhang Yu got up early in the morning, washed up, and changed his outfit.
After dinner, I hung two pig legs and two pheasants on the bicycle, and then gave my parents a few instructions.
"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving. I'll be back in the evening. If it's too late, you don't have to wait. Just leave the door open for me."
This Lijiazhuang is not close to Sijiu City. It has to be 40 to 50 miles away. The reason why Zhang Yu didn't want to come back a few years ago was because he felt that the journey was too far and it was inconvenient to come back and forth.
Fortunately, now that we have bicycles, these roads are no longer a problem.
But when your son travels far away, how can a mother not miss him?
"Hey, okay, then ride slowly on the road. Don't rush. Safety first. If time is tight, you can stay in the city for one night and come back tomorrow."
It's the end of the year, and Zhang Yu doesn't want to deal with those people in the compound anymore, for fear that something will happen and affect his mood.
"I understand, mother, I have decided to come back today, so you can go back to the house."
After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he got on his car and quickly drove away from Lijiazhuang and rushed to the city. When he met acquaintances on the road, Zhang Yu would nod and say hello.
Hum hum hum, I don’t know how long I rode, and finally I saw the entrance of Master Ma’s courtyard.
"Squeak."
The car stopped at the door, and Zhang Yu pushed the car into the courtyard.
The pendant on Zhang Yu's car attracted everyone who was busy working in the yard.
Looking at the two pheasants, they all marveled, these things are really rare in the city.
Sometimes I am lucky enough to encounter pigeons in the market, but they are all taken away by the dignitaries, so there is nothing to do with ordinary people.
"Young man, whose relative are you?"
An aunt on the side asked a question.
"Xiaoyu?"
Master Ma was working in the house. Through the window, he saw a group of people gathered in the yard, so he came out with a broom to take a look.
Master Ma pushed through the crowd, came to Zhang Yu, and took a look at the pendant.
"Why are you here, kid? You are not at home right now. You are helping your parents clean up the house. Why are you here?"
Master Ma also knew it and asked, what else could be the reason for Zhang Yulai? Isn’t the reason just on the handlebar?
The tacit understanding between master and apprentice made Zhang Yu immediately understand what the master meant, wasn't he just trying to show off?
"I miss you, master. As the saying goes, one day is like three autumns. I haven't seen you for several days, so I plan to come and see you."
"It's not a coincidence. Yesterday, my brother, my brother, and my dad went hunting in the mountains and happened to catch a wild boar."
"While I was carrying the wild boar home and carving the meat, I thought of you, master."
"I don't think I can eat it myself. I have to give you some, Master, so you can try it. I think the meat is too little and you won't be satisfied with it. I just removed the two pig hind legs and loosened them for you."
."
"By the way, there are also these two pheasants, which I also caught last night. Let's bring them to Master so that you, Master, Brother Ma, and your whole family can have a taste."
When Zhang Yu was talking, the residents of the compound cast their envious eyes on Master Ma. Do you find this kind of apprentice with a lantern?
Many of these residents are old masters from other factories, some of whom are on the same level as Master Ma, but none of them are apprentices like Zhang Yu.
After eating the meat, I was still worried that the master had not eaten it, so I thought about sending it to the master. I was afraid that the meat would not be enough to eat, so I directly arranged two pork thighs and added two pheasants.
Think about my disciples again. The comparison is in the sky and on the earth. There is no comparison.
Master Ma looked at the old guys with envious eyes, which made him feel happy. He returned the favor with a proud look, and carried the things home with Zhang Yu.
The old men in the back could only express their gratitude eagerly and swallow their saliva greedily.
