Chapter 414 Helping the Widow Relegated to the Second Line

Chew cud, also known as rumination.

This is a living habit of herbivores such as old cows and roe deer.Specifically, after eating for a period of time, they will spit out the food that has not been digested in the stomach, and then chew it before eating it.

And Zhao Jun said that the black tiger chewed backwards. When eating bear meat in the mountains before, this guy swallowed four pieces of bear meat in a row, then ran aside, spit out all the bear meat in a place where there were no other dogs, and enjoyed it slowly. .

Zhao Jun knew that what Heihu did had nothing to do with chewing cud or ruminating, but just wanted to eat more and protect food.

It was the first time Zhao Jun had seen such a superb product in his two lifetimes.

Unlike the black tiger who ate with ditches and flats, Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu did not eat in the mountains at noon.So after boiling the water and dipping the bear bile, Wang Meilan warmed up some leftovers and leftovers for them, so that Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu could spare a bite. After all, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and they should have dinner soon. up.

After dinner, Li Baoyu went home, while Zhao Jun went back to his room to sleep.If there is no accident, then Han Shang should have been invited by Zhao Guofeng to see Old Mrs. Jiang, and now, Han Shang can't come.Why don't we wait until night before asking Han Shang to give these dogs an injection.

Not long after Zhao Jun fell asleep, he was woken up by the barking of a dog. He sat up from the kang and looked out the window. Then he heard a noise in the outer room, and it was Wang Meilan who went out from the room.

Seeing that the old lady had gone, Zhao Jun lay down again, and continued to sleep while he was still sleepy.

But as soon as Zhao Jun fell asleep, Wang Meilan entered his room, went to the edge of the kang, and whispered, "Son, son!"

"Mom, what's the matter?"

Zhao Jun opened his eyes and saw that Wang Meilan was looking at him with a smile, and she was still holding a stack of Great Unity, about forty or fifty.

Zhao Jun reacted immediately and asked, "Uncle Zhao sent money?"

"Yeah." Wang Meilan smiled and said, "I asked Jinshan to send it."

Zhao Jun lifted the thin quilt that covered his stomach, got up from the kang, and said to Wang Meilan, "Mom, divide the money up. Let our family keep one, send one to Uncle Li's family, and give the rest to me. I'll send it to Brother Long."

"Okay!" Speaking of this, Wang Meilan was good at it. After doing some calculations in her mind, she counted out sixteen pieces of money from the wad of money, put them next to Zhao Jun's pillow, and then took out a piece of five yuan from her pocket. Two pieces of cards, put together with the sixteen cards of Great Unity that were just distributed.

Zhao Jun took the money, got off the kang, put on a cloth shirt, pulled the cloth shoes and left the house.

At this time, it was almost 04:30, in Shanchang Village, the sun was setting and the breeze was blowing.

Zhao Jun walked slowly towards Wang Dalong's house, but just as he turned to the right, he suddenly stopped.

It turned out that there were two people squeezed between the earth wall of Sun's house and the big willow tree that he turned right.

A man and a woman, the woman next door is Jiang Xiaolan, the widow of Sun Dachin.And that man was none other than Wang Dalong who Zhao Jun was looking for on this trip.

The corner of the wall formed a right angle, Zhao Jun was on one side, and the two people were on the other side.Zhao Jun leaned against the wall and heard them whispering.

"Sister." Wang Dalong said: "Brother, I'm sorry, I can't get that blind man's palm."

"Yo!" When Jiang Xiaolan spoke, the voice made Zhao Jun frown, and the tone was adjusted.In the latter words, it is fadia.

Jiang Xiaolan said: "I promised me yesterday, why did you change your mind today? Did you send it to some little girl or daughter-in-law?"

"Hehe..." Wang Dalong smiled apologetically: "Look, what are you talking about, sister? How can there be any little daughter-in-law? Let me tell you, I saw Mrs. Jiang when I left the village today. I felt sorry for her. I couldn't bear it, so I told Zhao Jun and Baoyu to leave the blind man's palms to the old lady."

Well, Zhao Jun's good deeds are all on him.

"Oh!" Jiang Xiaolan stretched out her hand and patted Wang Dalong's chest, and said with a smile, "You're pretty smart."

"Hehe..." Wang Dalong laughed and said, "Then you see, I have always been nice to you, haven't I?"

Jiang Xiaolan rolled her eyes at Wang Dalong and said, "Then if you want to say that, if I have something to do, don't you have to help me?"

Hearing this, Wang Dalong leaned on Jiang Xiaolan, leaning his shoulders against his shoulders, and asked with a smirk, "How do you want me to help you?"

Jiang Xiaolan pressed Wang Dalong on her shoulders, and with the force of the rebound, the two of them separated a little, looked left and right, and when she saw no one said, "My son is going to junior high school, this half-grown boy will eat me to death, and his father is still there." He died a long time ago, look at you and give me a hand."

"Then what are you talking about?" Wang Dalong said with a smile: "Isn't your son my son? When Big Chin was alive, my two brothers were so good. When he is gone, I have to help him and take care of you two." !"

The more Wang Dalong said, the more he leaned closer to Jiang Xiaolan.This time, Jiang Xiaolan stopped dodging and whispered: "Then you want to help me, what can your wife do?"

"I'm a man, how can I still be afraid of her?" Wang Dalong raised his eyebrows, twisted his mouth, and promised, "I'll kill this blind man, and the village will give me a reward. I'll give you 50 yuan when the time comes." You and our son spend the money first."

"Oh, that would be great."

"Okay?" Wang Dalong smiled cheaply, put his face in front of Jiang Xiaolan, and said, "I'm so nice, you don't even want me to come in and drink water."

"Not today." Jiang Xiaolan said, "My son is at home, wait until he goes to school tomorrow morning, and then come back."

"That's fine, that's fine." Wang Dalong hurriedly agreed.

At this time, Jiang Xiaolan raised her hand to knock off the salty pig's hand that he stretched out, looked left and right in a panic, and then said to Wang Dalong: "Don't worry, wait until tomorrow morning."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xiaolan added another sentence, saying: "Before you come tomorrow morning, bring the 50 yuan too!"

"understood!"

Judging from the meaning of these two people, there must be no big drama today, and Wang Dalong should be going home soon.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jun hastily turned around, walked around, avoiding the gate of Jiang Xiaolan's house, and ran all the way to Wang Dalong's house.

When Zhao Jun arrived at Wang Dalong's house, Wang Dalong hadn't come back yet, only Wei Xiaojuan was at home.At this time, she was busy preparing dinner and picking cucumbers and persimmons in the vegetable garden behind the house.

Zhao Jun entered the front yard of her house, and the four dogs tied in the yard had just hunted with Zhao Jun today, so they were still familiar with Zhao Jun.So, when he saw him coming in, he just yelled twice to remind Wei Xiaojuan of the courtyard.

Hearing the barking of the dog, Wei Xiaojuan hurriedly came over from the backyard with a vegetable basket. Seeing that it was Zhao Jun, Wei Xiaojuan smiled and said, "Xiaojun, have you eaten yet? Sister-in-law orders the whole meal, you can eat here at night."

"It's terrible, sister-in-law." Zhao Jun took out a wad of money from his pocket with a smile, opened the half-folded part, handed it to Wei Xiaojuan, and said, "Sister-in-law, brother Long and I, we are going to kill black blind people today. Give a reward of 500 yuan, me, Baoyu, and him, the three of us, each of us will get one piece, one piece is 160 yuan, I will round it up for you, and get 160!"

That's right, Zhao Jun gave their family an extra forty cents.The forty cents is nothing to Zhao Jun, but the words must be made clear.

"This..." But Wei Xiaojuan listened to Zhao Jun's words, but stared at him blankly, not daring to reach out to take the money.

Zhao Jun was taken aback, and hurriedly said to Wei Xiaojuan: "Sister-in-law, the meat of the black blind man is stored in the mountains. Bring it back tomorrow and ask my brother to carry it back for you. The black blind man is with me. When I sell it for money, You have one too."

"No." Seeing that Zhao Jun misunderstood, Wei Xiaojuan looked at the money in Zhao Jun's hand, frowned and said suspiciously: "Your Brother Long didn't say you have money, he just said to go to the siege with you and ask you to help drag it out." Drag the dog."

"Ah, haha." Zhao Jun laughed, didn't say anything, just took a step forward, put the money into Wei Xiaojuan's hand, and said, "Sister-in-law, you have collected the money." As he spoke, he moved left and right Look, and asked: "My brother Long didn't leave home?"

"Ah... um!" Wei Xiaojuan took the money with a dazed expression on her face, but after hearing Zhao Jun's question, she still replied, "Your brother Long said that these four dogs are all injured, and you have to find Dr. Han to give them an anti-inflammatory injection." .”

"I'm looking for Dr. Han." Zhao Jun nodded with a smile, and said, "That's all right, then save another trip. That's it, sister-in-law. When Dr. Han comes, you can tell him to let him go When you come out of your house, go to my house, and my dog ​​will also have to get an injection."

"Okay, okay." Wei Xiaojuan nodded quickly when she heard this, but seeing Zhao Jun turned to leave, she walked to the door and said, "Xiaojun, why don't you leave and eat at home."

Zhao Jun didn't answer, just shook his head with a smile, waved to Wei Xiaojuan, and then left their house.

Wang Dalong has been restless since before he got married, and he has a young daughter-in-law and a young widow in the north and south.

And a few years later, I went to Yongli Village to get a pair of broken shoes, and they were chased and beaten back.

Can Wei Xiaojuan not have heard of these things?
But these days, there are still some traditional concepts deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.Especially in rural areas, some women drink medicine and hang themselves, but no one gets divorced.

Although Wei Xiaojuan is quite strong at home, as soon as she and Wang Dalong get into a divorce, Wei Xiaojuan will choose to back down.

When Zhao Jun arrived home, he was surprised to find that Zhao Youcai got home early from get off work today and was drinking tea on the kang.

And Wang Meilan rolled the noodles on the chopping board, presumably to make hand-rolled noodles.

Just as Zhao Jun was about to enter the house to say hello to Zhao Youcai, he heard a dog barking outside. Zhao Jun glanced out the open door, and then shouted into the inner room: "

Dad, look, someone is coming! "

Hearing this, Zhao Youcai hurriedly put down the tea mug and got down from the kang.Zhao Youcai knew that since Zhao Jun called him, the person who came here must not be walking around with his family often.

"Who's at home?"

Hearing the sound from outside, Wang Meilan stopped her rolling pin, frowned and looked outside, and said, "Why do I hear this sound, why is it so familiar?"

"Jiangzhou." Zhao Jun said from the side: "Old Jiang Boss is his nephew."

"Ah!" Wang Meilan hurriedly put down the rolling pin, patted her flour-stained hands, and said to Zhao Jun, "Is this your brother-in-law's logistics? Then I have to go out and have a look."

"Let's go." It happened that Zhao Youcai came out from the back room and took Wang Meilan out.In the courtyard, Zhao Youcai yelled at the dog twice, walked to the door with Wang Meilan, and said to Jiangzhou, "Brother, how is the house? I've been busy for the past few days, so I didn't have time to go there."

Zhao Youcai's words were all polite words, and they were all lip service, but the two families didn't know each other well, so that was all they could do.

Therefore, Wang Meilan didn't wait for Jiang Zhou to answer, and said, "Quick, stop standing outside, go inside and drink some water."

"No, sister-in-law." Jiangzhou took a step back and refused, "I just came to thank you. If it weren't for your Zhao Jun, my aunt would not have allowed my uncle to be buried."

As soon as Jiangzhou's words came out, Zhao Youcai and his wife looked at each other, and they didn't speak in a tacit understanding.

Because there is no way to say this, the matter of the old couple, the old lady can do whatever she wants, and you Jiangzhou have no right to decide.Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan, these two outsiders, what else can they say.

Besides, you came to thank me, is there anyone who doesn't want to take something?
Jiangzhou also felt a little embarrassed, smiled embarrassingly, and said, "Brother, my uncle will leave tomorrow morning."

"Ah, then I know." Upon hearing this, Zhao Youcai understood that what Jiangzhou said was a funeral, so he said, "Your sister-in-law and I will go there early in the morning."

"Yeah." Jiangzhou nodded, and said again: "Tomorrow morning is too early, and you all have to go to work, so when the time comes, I will simply arrange a bite to eat. After finishing the work, wait until evening, put it in my uncle's yard, I set up a few tables, brother and your family all come, and my aunt said that I would like to thank you very much."

"Ah, that's fine." Zhao Youcai said, "We'll go there early and help you with your work."

This is also a polite remark, but after hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Jiangzhou said: "No need, brother, I will come to pick you up when the time comes."

As soon as Jiangzhou's words came out, Wang Meilan's eyes lit up.

Whoever handles the business, notify in advance, and those who have friendship at that time, go on their own, this is the rule.

Moreover, no matter whether it is red or white, as long as it is done, the family must be very busy.

In the current Jiangzhou, as the only person in the old Jiang family who can support the appearance, he has to stay at home to entertain guests.

The most important thing is that the two families live in the same village, and no one can get lost after walking a few steps, so why not come to pick them up in person?
However, for Tunli people, this is a kind of great respect.

Zhao Guofeng, the head of the village, did not receive such treatment.And even Zhou Chunming, who is the top leader of the forest farm, has never received such treatment.

Now, this kind of treatment came to Wang Meilan's head, making Wang Meilan, who has become more and more vain this year, feel as sweet as honey.

But Zhao Youcai didn't think so, he asked Jiangzhou from the side, "Brother, how many tables do you plan to set up?"

"My aunt said that she and my uncle have lived in this village for the rest of their lives. We are close relatives. As long as you come to see my uncle off, we will entertain you."

"Oh!" Zhao Youcai was startled when he heard the words, and said, "That's not a dozen tables?"

"I can't sit down." Jiangzhou said with a wry smile, "My aunt said, prepare as twenty tables, and I have to borrow tables and stools later."

These days, meals are usually taken as a family unit, and the whole family will come out with a gift.Like Zhao Jun's family, all five of them will go tomorrow.

"Brother!" Zhao Youcai suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said to Jiangzhou: "Then brother will serve you? It happens that there will be no guests in the venue tomorrow. I will come back after the big pot meal at noon, and help you with work!"

As the master chef of the forest farm, Zhao Youcai has always been very popular. Whenever the forest farm workers have a wedding or a wedding, they always invite him to take charge of the spoon, and then give him some hard-earned money.

The old Jiang's family had twenty tables at a time, and it was not easy to get busy, and the old Jiang's family would definitely not treat Zhao Youcai badly.

"Brother, this is not allowed." Jiangzhou shook his head and said, "You are the benefactors of our old Jiang family. Tomorrow your family will have to sit at the table with the old lady. How can I let you take the reins?"

The moment Zhao Youcai heard the words, his eager heart instantly sank to the bottom.

……

After seeing off Jiangzhou, Wang Meilan patted Zhao Youcai's shoulder with a smile on her face, and said, "Go, go home, I'll cut four noodles for you."

Zhao Youcai didn't speak, and walked into the yard with his head down.Seeing his appearance, Wang Meilan frowned and said, "What's the matter with you? Why are you drooping your head? Our son is getting better and better, and our family's life is getting better and better, but you are getting more and more depressed every day. How can this be Okay? You can learn from me, and you can see how happy I am every day."

After Wang Meilan finished speaking, seeing that Zhao Youcai still didn't speak, she immediately felt that her good mood was ruined, and she said angrily, "No one cares about you anymore. I found out. If there is anything going on in this family, I have to blame my son. You, If not, let my son be the head of the family, and you, as they say, can retreat to the second line!"

"What the hell? He is in charge?" Zhao Youcai finally couldn't bear the grief and anger in his heart, and shouted in a low voice: "I'm only 45! Why should I withdraw from the second line!"

 Add more updates at noon, thank you leader.

  I also thank the brothers who sent me a look and a monthly pass, I am very grateful.
