hunting in 1986

Chapter 125 Chapter 124
Snowflakes fluttered down from the sky again, and the yard that had just been cleaned became pure white again.

When Wang Yuan came back home on his motorcycle, the little girl was playing with the dog in the yard. When she saw Wang Yuan came back, she immediately ran over happily on her short legs:
"Second brother, you are back, did you buy me something delicious?"

"If you eat and eat, you will know how to eat, and sooner or later you will grow into a little chubby girl."

"My grandma said that being able to eat is a blessing!"

"You remember this sentence clearly. My grandma also said that I go to bed early and get up early."

Wang Yuan pushed the motorcycle into the yard and covered it with a large piece of plastic sheeting. The little girl lovingly carried two bricks and pressed the corners of the plastic sheet.

"I bought you a fried cake, take it and eat it."

"Okay, okay, second brother is so kind." The little girl was very happy to get fried cakes, and a few dogs approached to beg for one, but the little girl didn't want to give it to them and hurried into the house.

Wang Yuan entered the house and found his wife Li Yan, sister-in-law Li Ping, and cousin Wang Hu watching TV.

Li Yan helped him take off his coat, and then asked about buying furs.

"I bought it after seeing the quality is good, but the weather is cold and the road is blocked by heavy snow, and the ox cart is too difficult to move. Let's pull it after a while."

"It's okay, you can also drink some water to keep warm." Wang Yuan was still running around in the cold weather, which made Li Yan feel distressed. She brought Wang Yuan a bowl of hot water:
"Let's stew a chicken at noon, and then stew a fish. How about the chicken and fish?"

"Okay, I'll go to the chicken farm to catch chickens later." Wang Yuan's heart is the same as Ming Jing's. Since his sister-in-law came to his house, the richness of Li Yan's cooking has skyrocketed. This is because she loves her sister.

Li Yan's sisters had a very hard time when they were young, and now that the conditions are better, they have not forgotten to help her sister.

As for the sister-in-law staying at his house for a longer period of time, Wang Yuan actually didn't care too much about it. This is normal in many places in this era, after all, the two sisters are also close relatives.

Besides, it's just an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks, and my sister-in-law will also help his family with work.

The four of them were sitting in a warm room watching TV. Wang Hu was always looking for topics to chat with Li Ping.

It's a pity that Li Ping's reaction has been mediocre.

Wang Yuan shook his head helplessly and he didn't know how to deal with such things. Things like feelings and love are too easy to confuse people, and it seems that they are not things that can be easily solved with reason.

After sitting in the warm room for a while, Wang Yuan left the house and went to the chicken farm. He was going to catch two old hens and stew them.

"Wang Wang~"

The three dogs ran after him happily, and there were a lot of dog paw prints on the snow. They were fighting so lively that Wang Yuan couldn't help thinking whether to feed them less food.

Maybe he had guessed the bad thoughts in Wang Yuan's mind, and when the dogs were fighting, the big wolf bumped his head on Wang Yuan's thigh, causing him to stagger and then sat on the snow without his center of gravity.

"What a fool, I shouldn't have brought you out." Wang Yuan angrily grabbed a snow dumpling and threw them.

At this time, a group of children ran over, including his cousin Wang Lei. They ran south happily with small wooden boards or small wooden frames.

"Second brother!"

"Brother Xiaoyuan!"

"Brother Xiaoyuan, are you sitting on the ground?"

Wang Yuan stood up with a smile, patted the snow on his body and said with a smile: "Are you going to Gaha?"

It turned out that the children went to play on a snow slope not far away. The snow slope was about ten meters long, and the snow on it had been compacted.

It's like a natural ski resort.

Seeing the children running away happily, Wang Yuan smiled and continued walking to the chicken farm.

Uncle Wei Guo was still looking at the boiler in the boiler room. It seemed that he had been drinking a lot all morning, and his eyes were a little dazed.

As soon as he got close to him, a smell of alcohol came to his face.

"Uncle Wei, I'm here to catch two chickens."

"Oh, oh, I'll help you catch it."

Wang Yuan didn't need to do anything at all, Uncle Wei Guo directly caught two chickens for him, and his current life is extremely nourishing, and most of the time he won't go home unless his wife comes to call him.

"Uncle Wei, drink less, how uncomfortable it is to be drunk."

"Don't worry if I'm not drunk, I'm easy to get drunk when I drink, but I'm sober."

After bidding farewell to Uncle Wei, Wang Yuan returned home with two old hens. Li Yan and Li Ping had already started cleaning the fish, so Wang Yuan and Wang Hu cleaned the chickens together.

It was almost 1:[-] noon before the stewed chicken and fish came out of the pot.

The little girl also stayed in the courtyard to eat, and the five of them sat cross-legged on the kang and started eating, chatting while eating. Wang Yuan also said that he would go to Jinshi in a few days.

"Go to the pass again? Go to that Gaha?"

"I'll be back soon with some stuff, Huzi, are you going?"

"I...I still won't go."

Wang Yuan couldn't help but sighed in his heart, but he didn't say much, the third uncle and the third aunt didn't want Wang Hu to run around very much, they were very worried about Wang Hu's safety.

Wang Hu also listened to his third uncle and aunt very much.

So although this cousin Wang Yuan wanted to take Wang Hu with him, but the other party didn't want to go, he had no choice but to give up.

The fish was very delicious, and the chicken was also very fragrant. The few people were full after eating a big meal. After clearing the table, Wang Yuan felt sleepy for a while, so he lay down on the kang to sleep.

The days at home are always relaxed and enjoyable. I sleep until 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and when I wake up, I am called by Li Yan to go to the chicken farm to pick up eggs.

Wang Yuan yawned and put on his cotton-padded clothes: "Let's not hire another long-term worker, and counting Uncle Wei Guo, two long-term workers are enough to do all the work in the chicken farm.

3 yuan a day for a long-term worker is quite a lot, and it is quite limited. The key is that we can be completely liberated. "

"Do you really think of yourself as a rich man? Let's go quickly, the chickens will be too hungry to lay eggs later."

Li Yan was very unhappy.

She is used to being frugal, and she feels that there is no need to spend that wronged money.

A few people were walking to the chicken farm. On the way, they ran into "Yu Xiaoli" who was carrying a basket of corn grains. He was just 6 years old, and he was shaking with a basket of corn grains, as if he might fall down at any time.

Behind him was a little black milk dog with folded ears and misty eyes, looking silly and cute.

After seeing Li Yan, Yu Xiaoli immediately shouted happily: "Aunt Yuan, I will exchange corn for eggs."

Wang Yuan looked at Li Yan suspiciously, and Li Yan said:
"The canteen agreed to exchange eggs for snacks, so some villagers in some villages gave the children corn and asked them to come to our house to exchange eggs, and then use the eggs to exchange snacks."

Many adults will not give their children change. Although corn can be sold for money, most people still pay more attention to money than corn.

"There is such a thing."

Wang Yuan's eyes lit up. After entering the chicken farm, he quickly changed the eggs for the little guy. The price of eggs rose rapidly in winter, and a basket of corn could not be exchanged for a few eggs.

He thought of the idea of ​​hiring someone to pick up eggs again, and said directly: "Xiao Li, don't leave in a hurry, pick up eggs at my house, and I'll give you 1 cents for a while, how about it?"

"Really?"

Yu Xiaoli almost suspected that he had heard it wrong. You can earn 1 cents by picking eggs?Isn't this pie in the sky?Why didn't my mother give me money when I helped pick up eggs at home every day?
"Of course it's true, let's go pick up eggs."

After giving him a basket, Yu Xiaoli quickly helped to pick up the eggs, one, two, three... Soon he picked up a basket, and the little guy was sweating on his forehead.

Li Yan wiped his sweat for him, and persuaded him: "Take a break and I'll get you frozen pears to eat, we can pick them ourselves."

"No, I can still pick it up."

Yu Xiaoli went to pick up eggs again with an empty basket. He was full of motivation now, and he just hoped that Wang Yuan could fulfill his promise later.

Wang Yuan poured a bag of feed evenly into the trough, and then looked at Yu Xiaoli who was picking up the eggs quickly. He was thinking—if he cheated and didn't give Yu Xiaoli 1 cents later, would the other party cry aggrievedly?
Li Yan came over with another bag of chicken feed, and said angrily, "You are so good, why did you ask the child to help you pick up the eggs? The child is sweating from fatigue."

"The one who gave the money, he just wanted to make money."

Wang Yuan, Uncle Wei Guo, Li Yan, Wang Hu, Li Ping and others also helped pick up the eggs after feeding the chickens, so they picked up the eggs quickly.

Wang Yuan fulfilled his promise and gave Yu Xiaoli 1 cents, and the latter happily accepted the 1 cents.

"Come pick it up tomorrow? Pick one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and I'll give you 2 cents a day!"

"Really? Then I'll come!"

The smile on Yu Xiaoli's face was so pure and contagious that Wang Yuan, Li Yan, Li Ping and others all laughed in an instant, and the atmosphere was very happy for a while.

Yu Xiaoli really came the next day, and helped pick up two games a day for 2 cents.

On the third day, he not only came by himself, but also called his elder brother "Yu Dali", and each person got 2 cents.

On the fourth day, not only the two of them came, but also a dozen children from the village, including Chen Zhuang, Zhao Quan, Zhao Hai, etc., and even Wang Yuan's cousin Wang Lei.

The scene was extremely lively.

It is also picking up two games a day, and one person gets paid 2 cents. The snacks in the canteen are 1 to 5 cents, so 2 cents can buy many kinds of snacks.

You can also buy some small firecrackers.

In the past, they could only cautiously ask their parents for pocket money, and their parents would throw face at them and even beat them up, and they were unwilling to give them a penny. Now that they can make money by themselves, their self-confidence instantly rises, and they are happy all day long. of.

Of course, Wang Yuan also told them not to yell and jump around in the greenhouse with chickens.Eggs should also be picked up quietly so as not to disturb the chickens.

The children were very obedient, which made Wang Yuan heave a sigh of relief.

This evening.

The red sunset was half covered by the sunset glow, and the red light scattered in the small mountain village, making people's faces red.

After another day of picking eggs, Wang Yuan looked at a group of human cubs in front of him, took out a stack of ten-cent bills and began to distribute money to everyone.

"Twenty cents per person, don't fight for what everyone has."

Every child who got the money was very happy, because the excitement in his heart didn't even feel the cold wind blowing.

"What shall we buy later?"

"Buy spicy strips, I've been buying spicy strips for several days."

"I want to buy firecrackers, the kind that can fly into the sky!"

"Xiao Lei, what about you?"

"I want to buy a small knife. The butcher's knife is too big to sharpen. It's easy to sharpen with a small knife. By the way, there are paints in the store. It's very beautiful when dyed."

In an instant, the other children were clamoring to buy a knife, chattering so loudly that even the air was hot.

尜尜 is a spinning top.

Spinning tops of various materials, large and small, will accompany children almost throughout their childhood, and if anyone has a large spinning top, how many children will die of envy.

Wang Yuan clapped his hands to attract the children's attention, and then said:
"From tomorrow onwards, I won't be sending money to everyone. Uncle Wei Guo will send it to everyone. If you have something to do, you don't have to come. Whenever you want to earn pocket money, just come and pick up eggs."

The children immediately nodded in agreement.

Rural children are very quick at work, and the value of the work they do is completely more than the 2 cents, so Wang Yuan has made a profit.

Of course, the children are not at a loss. Picking up eggs is like playing a game. Why not do it if you can still make money?

Lock the door to the chicken farm.

Wang Yuan, Uncle Wei Guo and the children walked towards the south together, creaking and creaking~ The trampled snow was very slippery, so they walked very carefully.

Behind the crowd were two little milk dogs—one black and one white, which were easy to distinguish.

The little black dog belongs to the boy Yu Xiaoli, and the little white dog belongs to the boy Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai is three years older than Yu Xiaoli, already 9 years old, and he is also a head taller.

Wang Yuan directly bent down and picked up the little black dog from the ground. The little dog stared at him innocently with big watery eyes.

"The fluffy little milk dog is so pretty. Its hair is really black. It's like black coal balls. It has a lot of meat. Have you eaten something good?"

Yu Xiaoli walked on the left side of Wang Yuan, swiping from time to time to make it slippery, he raised his face and said, "Brother Yuan, it's called Xiaobai."

"What the hell?"

Wang Yuan suspected that he had heard it wrong. The fleshy little milk dog in his arms was completely black, and it turned out to be Xiaobai?
Yu Xiaoli answered him again: "I said this little black dog is called Xiaobai."

"Then... what about that little white milk dog at the back?"

Little Zhao Hai bouncingly replied: "It's called Xiao Hei!"

The children obviously knew the inside story, so they all laughed for a moment, and Wang Yuan also laughed loudly:
"The black dog is called Xiaobai, and the white dog is called Xiaohei? Who told you to name them that way?"

Wang Yuan called Xiaobai, and the little black dog in his arms really responded, his ears quivered happily, not only his tail began to shake, but he also stretched out his tongue to lick the air with bright eyes.

Obviously, the little black dog knows that he is called Xiaobai.

When he came to the intersection in the village, Wang Yuan put the puppy on the ground and bid farewell to the children, and then watched the children bounce and walk away on the snow.

The red light of hope elongated the children's shadows, and the cold wind blew by, and the children's laughter was gradually blown away by the wind.

Looking at this beautiful scene, Wang Yuan couldn't help but lose his mind for a while.

Sudden.

Li Yan's voice came from the yard: "Xiao Yuan, isn't it cold standing there?"

Wang Yuan opened the fence door and entered the yard, and said with a playful smile, "Wearing the sweater you knitted for me, no matter how cold it is, I don't feel cold."

"Pfft~"

Li Yan glanced at him in shock, and then her pretty face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and there was a flash of happiness in her eyes, but there was also a hint of bewilderment.

The feelings of this era are reserved and hidden, and will not be revealed easily. Even couples who like each other very much, most of them will never say "I love you" to each other in their entire lives, or even hug each other. , will not kiss.

This is completely different from later generations.

"I'm not doing my job well every day, so wash your hands and eat." Li Yan said angrily, but she still patted Wang Yuan's back twice with joy, and then pushed him into the room.

Dinner is sweet potato and corn porridge, braised pork, fried cabbage with meat, pork head meat, fried shredded potatoes and a plate of fried dumplings left over from lunch.

Wang Hu went back to his own house for dinner, but the little girl stayed here with the big white cat in her arms, so Wang Yuan, Li Yan, Li Ping and the little girl were at the dinner table.

The little girl picked up a fried dumpling, bit off half of it herself, and handed the other half to the big white cat.

"Big white cat, you eat."

"Meow~"

The big white cat sniffed lightly, and then ate the fried dumplings happily. Not only did the tail start to wag slightly, but the beard also raised up.

The little girl likes to eat in Wang Yuan's courtyard, because she will not be prohibited from feeding the big white cat delicious food here, and if it is in the mother's courtyard, if she dares to feed the cat meat, she would have already slapped it. She fucked her ass.

Not only in the eyes of the older generation, but also in the eyes of most of Wang Yuan's generation, cats and dogs are not qualified to eat meat, nor are they qualified to be equal to humans.

"This braised pork is really good and delicious."

Wang Yuan ate a large piece of braised pork. It was soft and not sticky to the teeth, and not greasy at all. After chewing, he swallowed it in his stomach and took a sip of Moutai. It felt comfortable!
With more than 180 million in cash, Wang Yuan feels that he is fully qualified to drink Moutai. Of course, he will drink it quietly at home and not go around to show off, so as not to attract others' envy.

"It smells delicious just seeing you eating. There are still a few yuan here. Eat it quickly."

Li Yan put a few pieces of braised pork into Wang Yuan's bowl, with a gentle smile on her face, she felt very happy watching Wang Yuan devour her dishes.

This also seems to be an endorsement.

Li Ping also took small bites of food. The meals at her sister's house were like Chinese New Year every day, so she didn't want to leave.

"By the way, I'm going to Tsu City tomorrow, and I'm not sure when I'll be back."

"Oh Xingji, come back soon."

"Yes." Wang Yuan ate the fried dumplings.

They burned the kang in the other room, so Li Ping and the little girl went to sleep in the other room at night, and Wang Yuan and Li Yan could live a two-person world in their own room with peace of mind.

the next day.

Now there is no need to collect eggs, so Wang Yuan didn't ask Li Yan to wake up so early, it is comfortable to sleep late in winter.

He got up and fried some steamed buns and eggs, and after eating the leftovers from last night, he wiped his mouth and left on the motorcycle.
