hunting in 1986

Chapter 33 Chapter 33

In the countryside in 1986, marriages were very early.

Those who work in this era are also early. For example, students in technical secondary schools are only 18 to 19 years old when they graduate, and they are directly assigned jobs as cadres.

Ordinary students cannot enter technical secondary schools or high schools, so most of them enter the society early after graduating from elementary school or junior high school.

Wang Yuan is not young anymore, it is very normal for his parents to be anxious about his marriage.

night.

Wang's father and Wang's mother directly stewed meat to entertain Uncle Man and his wife. They were very happy that they could take the initiative to introduce a blind date to their son.

The meal lasted until eight o'clock in the evening. In the end, Uncle Man's face was flushed from drinking, he was wearing a gray cloth gown, and he was shaking when he walked.

"With Xiaoyuan's Zhouzheng appearance this week, and his diligent personality, I will definitely find him a beautiful girl." Grandma Man laughed.

Wang Yuan's face flushed slightly.

Ms. Wang brought food to Grandma Man with a smile all over her face: "Then ask him to take care of Grandma Man."

After the old man and his grandparents left, Wang Yuan's family quieted down, and he gave his parents the money left over from selling fish, and Wang Yuan went to bed.

……

Wang Yuan lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep, the crickets outside the window were chirping, and the light of the moon was shining on the quilt through the window.

In autumn, it is hot for a while at noon, and it is still very cold in the morning and evening, so you must cover yourself with a quilt.

He couldn't sleep, but the big white cat was lying on the right side of the pillow with its paws in its mouth, and it was sound asleep, snoring~ snoring constantly.

"Marriage... Marriage... Why do I think of the pair of sisters I met before when I think of marriage? The blind date introduced by Grandma Man is not one of them, right?"

Wang Yuan was dazed and full of random thoughts, and after a while he woke up the big white cat, and the big white cat meowed angrily.

When it was almost dawn, Wang Yuan slowly fell asleep. When he woke up the next day, he had big dark circles under his eyes, which caused him to yawn repeatedly when he went fishing by the river.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye.

Wang Yuan has not been idle these few days. Li Hang in the city helped him find a senior fitter who made some ground cages for him to catch fish. Now it is much more convenient to catch fish.

Just set up the ground cage early in the morning and evening, and put all the big fish you catch into the space. Anyway, the fish can't be destroyed in it, and you can sell it when you have the opportunity.

In just a few days, more than 400 catties of fish were caught, which really made people happy, but Wang Yuan knew that the number of fish in the river would gradually decrease as time went by.

this day.

Mist shrouded the small mountain village.

Wang Yuan and Papa Wang came back from pulling branches in the mountains and found many people around the door of the third uncle's house, talking a lot. After getting closer, they found out that the third uncle and Huzi went up the mountain this morning to beat the pine cone, and they happened to hit a silly dog. roe deer.

"This roe deer is not small, and it can produce a lot of meat."

"Roe deer meat is delicious in stir-fried vegetables, and it is also delicious in steamed stuffed buns."

"Yes, yes, such a big roe deer is really rare."

Everyone stood in the courtyard of the third uncle's house, talking with their hands in their hands, and let out a white breath when they opened their mouths.

The third uncle spoke loudly and said with a smile: "Let's stay here for lunch, let's eat stewed roe deer meat!"

"Okay, let's have some wine together." Everyone responded enthusiastically.

Standing outside the fenced courtyard, Wang Yuan was moved in his heart. He and Father Wang hurriedly pulled the branches tied with ropes to the house, and then ran back to the third uncle's house.

The third uncle stood next to a group of old men bragging and criticizing, Wang Yuan thought about it, and went straight to the third aunt.

"What's wrong, what's the matter, Xiao Yuan."

The third aunt was about to paste pancakes with stick noodles, and then she was pulled into the back room by Wang Yuan, her face full of doubts.

"Well... There is a friend in my city. He told me a long time ago that he wanted to buy roe deer meat and try it. I guess the bid will not be too low, so can you leave me a roe deer leg? After I sell it, I will give me all the money." Give it to Aunt San."

Wang Yuan glanced at his cousin "Wang Xiaohua" who followed in. The latter was the same age as his own sister "Wang Xiaodie", both 5 years old, with a sallow complexion like a bean sprout, and her clothes were covered with patches.

The third uncle's family is much better than Wang Yuan's, but it's just that they eat more and have bicycles at home.

In fact, it is very short of money.

"Go to the city to sell roe deer legs? Will you not be caught?"

"Selling it secretly, you can't catch it." Wang Yuan smiled and said, "I'm just saying this. If you don't want to sell roe deer legs, third aunt, then forget it."

After speaking, he wanted to go out, but the third aunt hurriedly stopped him: "Don't, don't, don't... I'll go tell your third uncle right away."

The third aunt was completely tempted. There are very, very few ways to make money in the countryside these days, and every penny can't wait to be broken into eight-petaled flowers. Life is very miserable.

She thought, even if a roe deer leg can only be sold for 2-3 yuan, she is content as long as she can get 2-3 yuan.

The third aunt rushed out of the house to find the third uncle. As soon as she arrived next to the third uncle, she heard that Aunt Hong wanted the last roe deer leg.

The third uncle just wanted to agree, but he was too embarrassed to refuse since others asked, but the third aunt said quickly: "No!"

For a moment the air was quiet.

Everyone looked at Aunt Hong and then at Aunt Third, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit delicate.

The third aunt also felt that her rejection was too serious, so she laughed again:
"I still want to send the last roe deer leg to my natal family, so I'm sorry, but I can't give it to Xiao Hongni. I'll give you some meat from other places. The roe deer meat from other places is also delicious."

"Forget it, sister-in-law, I don't want it anymore."

After being rejected, Aunt Hong was very angry, and led the child away with a cold face.

"What's this for? Give her a leg if she wants it. They're all relatives. It's not good to be too stiff." The third uncle felt a little embarrassed, and whispered to the third aunt.

The third aunt felt very wronged, why would she pick and choose roe deer meat for nothing?And the reason why he said to give his natal family a leg is very legitimate.

Why did it seem like I did something wrong in the end?
"Don't worry about it, she just saved it if she didn't pull it down." The third aunt glared at the third uncle, then turned her head and entered the room angrily.

Wang Yuan saw everything in his eyes, so he couldn't say anything, so he said hello to his third uncle and went home.

He didn't tell third uncle about selling roe deer legs in front of the big guys, otherwise third uncle might disagree.

Many people in Wangjiatun have some "weird" thinking. Everyone likes money, but they look down on people who like money very much.

If the big guys know that the third uncle’s house is going to sell roe deer legs, there will probably be rumors saying: "Are you just so greedy for money? Is a roe deer leg worth selling? Can you make a fortune by living so carefully? Cut~"

Gossip can cause mental stress and make people uncomfortable.

So Wang Yuan decided to sell it quietly, there is no need to let others talk about it.

The four roe deer legs are owned, and the first one is kept for the third uncle's family to eat; the second one is shared by the grandparents, second uncle's family, and Wang Yuan's family; on the third day, it is given to a family in the village, who once rescued three Uncle's life; the fourth was sold, claiming to the outside world that it was for the third aunt's family.

As soon as Wang Yuan came home, the third aunt came quietly carrying a basket, and there was a hind leg of a roe deer in the basket.

"Xiaoyuan, I brought you the roe deer legs, you can sell them for as much as you want."

"Don't worry, auntie, I will try my best to sell it at a high price, no matter what, I can earn more than 10 yuan!" Wang Yuan laughed, and what he said was still very conservative.

"so much!?"

Third Aunt couldn't help but took a deep breath, but she was overjoyed immediately, and felt more and more that she was doing the right thing.
