My village can't be like this

Chapter 694 Caught

Zhang An didn't bring much wine, only a jar of about five pounds, and each person got a little over half a pound.

But because it was so strong, everyone felt a little drunk, as if they had drunk several kilograms of wine, and their faces were red and their necks were thick.

With the wine, he ate the entire huge cow's head and tail cleanly.

After eating and drinking to their heart's content and after several changes of tea, the guests and hosts had a great time, and then everyone dispersed and went home.

When Zhang An came back from Yang Laosan's house, the little bully Zhang Dashaoye was suffering. Su Ying was still teaching him to recognize pinyin letters with the preschool textbook as usual.

It was just that when he was first taught, he could still read along, but when he came back a while later and was asked to recognize them himself, he returned all of them to Su Ying.

This made Su Ying very annoyed, just like when she encountered a student in school who just couldn't learn no matter how hard she tried.

"Okay, okay, Qiqi is still so young. Now is the time for him to enjoy a happy childhood. Don't force him to learn these for the time being."

Under normal circumstances, Zhang An might not have dared to speak up to persuade him, but today he had drunk quite a bit of wine and was a little drunk.

It is said that alcohol makes cowards brave, and it indeed made him dare to tease his wife's whiskers.

"Go away. I'm teaching my child. Why are you messing with me? Besides, he's not happy right now. He has everything he wants to play and eat. Which child in the village can have such treatment? Even the slow bird flies first. I'm teaching him now just to lay a foundation for the future, not to abuse him. If someone doesn't know, they'd think I'm his stepmother after hearing what you said."

Seeing her man suddenly interrupting her, Su Ying squinted her eyes and glared at him with some displeasure.

"Alright, alright. The early bird catches the worm because it's stupid. Our son is not that stupid. Besides, Qiqi is less than two years old. There's no need to teach him so early. Let him be happy for two years first."

Although he was drunk, Zhang An was still somewhat rational. He wanted to use the example of helping something grow faster, but when he thought of his wife's personality, he didn't say it in the end.

"Just spoil him. If you don't work hard when you are young, you will regret it when you are old. There will be no turning back when you want to regret it in the future."

Maybe because she was used to being a teacher, Su Ying was more strict with her son. So when little Siqi could speak clearly at such a young age, she had already planned to provide her son with some enlightenment.

But today, with Zhang An's interruption, the serious atmosphere disappeared and Su Ying no longer had the urge to talk about her son.

However, this did not prevent her from blaming Zhang An for her anger.

"I'm his father. If I don't spoil him, who will? Our son doesn't need to be too successful. It's enough for him to live a good life in the future. As for the rest, I will take care of it."

Zhang An’s ideas are completely different from Su Ying’s. He has never thought that his son must succeed in life.

Having returned from the afterlife, he had seen so many things and knew that his son's generation was both happy and unfortunate.

Even if you have a promising future, no matter how smart you are, and even get admitted to the best university, it will still matter. If you don't have any connections at home, you will still have to work like a cow or a horse for this society, a life even more miserable than that of a cow or a horse.

Therefore, he never thought about what his son must be like in the future. As long as he could protect the family and live a leisurely life, that would be enough.

As for being able to let his family live such a life, he is still very confident.

When Su Ying heard this, she immediately glared at him again.

"Okay Qiqi, go find grandma to wash you."

Relying on the alcohol, Zhang An was not afraid of his wife's vicious look and spoke to his son.

Little Siqi heard his father talking for him, and then looked at his mother.

Although he is still young, he has already learned the ability to read people's expressions.

Seeing that Su Ying was just pretending, he ran out of the study and went downstairs to look for his grandmother.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I apologize to you."

After his son left, Zhang An approached his wife with a shy smile and said.

"Go away, you stink of alcohol, stay away from me."

Su Ying didn't even look at him, she just pinched her nose and frowned and said.

"Okay, okay, I'll go take a shower now."

Although he was despised by his wife, Zhang An didn't care and immediately turned around and went out to take a shower.

After the washing was finished, Zhang An shouted to his wife in the study: "Wife, please bring me the clothes. I forgot to bring them."

"You're so annoying, you can even forget such a thing."

Although Su Ying sounded impatient, she still went back to the room and got his clothes for him.

"It's okay. Even though I forgot, I still have you."

Zhang An chuckled and said very proudly.

In fact, he didn't forget to bring the clothes, but did it on purpose.

Because this would give Su Ying an excuse to argue with him and help her vent her energy.

After all, they have been married for so many years and have never quarreled or even argued.

It is for this reason that Su Ying puts all her remaining energy at school into her son when she gets home.

Today, Zhang An suddenly realized that he couldn't continue like this. He couldn't let his wife develop this habit, otherwise his son would have to live in dire straits in the future.

So he thought about how to share his wife's energy so that his son's life would be a little better.

"You're so smooth-talking. I've never seen you like this before. I wonder who you learned this from."

Su Ying noticed that her man had suddenly become a little different and rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.

"You don't know whether it's smooth talk or not. If that's the case, I'll let you feel it again."

Zhang An put on his pants and put his clothes on his shoulders. After coming out, he carried his wife on his shoulders and walked into the room.

The sudden action scared Su Ying.

"What are you doing? Let me go quickly. If our parents and Qiqi see us, I will make you suffer."

Su Ying couldn't struggle and could only stretch out her hands and beat Zhang An's back.

But with her strength, it was as if she was massaging Zhang An's back.

"Don't worry, mom and the others are watching TV downstairs."

Zhang An chuckled, looking like a flower thief.

He returned to the room, put Su Ying on the bed, and then closed the door and lights.

"Stop messing around, it's still early and I still have to prepare for class."

Su Ying had no idea what was going to happen at this time. Even though they were already an old couple, they were still a little shy.

"Your classes have already been completed. Now you just need to review. Why do you need to prepare lessons? Do you think I don't know? Let's work hard now to give Qiqi a brother or sister. Otherwise, he will be so lonely."

The slightly shy tone in Su Ying's voice added fuel to the fire of Zhang An.

He had always wanted to have more children, but the two classes Su Ying had taught were about to take the high school entrance exam, and he was very busy, so the time was not right.

Now that the students are about to graduate, there is no need to think about this issue anymore. The matter of expanding the Zhang family must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

After some tenderness, it was already midnight.

Su Ying no longer looked like she did before, and she leaned delicately on her man's chest.

The beads of sweat on her forehead were enough to show that she was very tired just now.

After being gently embraced by Zhang An, she fell asleep quietly.

As dawn approached, there was another noise in the chicken coop, and Zhang An, who was sleeping soundly, was immediately awakened.

Su Ying was not affected this time and was sleeping soundly.

Zhang An gently pulled his hand away from her neck and closed the window so as not to disturb her.

When I came downstairs, my mother and dad were still asleep.

Because the noise this time was not as loud as last time, and it was almost dawn, they were not woken up.

Zhang An opened the door and walked out. Before he reached the chicken coop, he found that Huiqiu and Xiaohu had already run outside the chicken coop and were staring at the trap under the eaves.

The gray ball couple were flying in the air. When they saw Zhang An coming, they immediately flew down and landed on his shoulders.

Zhang An looked in the direction they were staring at and found that there was indeed something extra in the trap.

It was still dark, so Zhang An could only turn on the flashlight and shine it over there, only to discover that there was a weasel inside.

Now that it was illuminated by the flashlight, even though it was in a trap, it was still baring its teeth and squeaking viciously at Zhang An.

"Hehe, God will not let down those who work hard. I finally caught you, the troublemaker."

When Zhang An saw the weasel with its big tail, his face immediately filled with joy. He finally caught it.

There has been no sign of the weasel these days, and Wang Fang even wondered if it would not come again.

But even so, Zhang An still did not remove the trap, for fear that this thing would come back to haunt him.

Well, after being quiet for a few days, this guy finally couldn't help it and finally launched a charge into Zhang An's chicken coop tonight.

“Ku ...

Just as Zhang An was thinking about how to punish this guy after catching him, the big rooster in the chicken coop immediately crowed.

The sound was very urgent and did not sound like the usual crowing at two or four o'clock in the morning.

Zhang An's heart suddenly skipped a beat. "Could it be that there is more than one?"

So he ignored the weasel trapped in the trap and quickly ran into the chicken coop with Little Tiger and the others.

Sure enough, as soon as I entered the chicken coop, I saw a weasel on the ground, struggling with its own rooster.

The fur of this weasel is not that yellow. Instead, its back is slightly gray-brown and its head is darker, making it look more like a powerful character.

It's just that its body is smaller than the one trapped in the trap under the eaves, but it is longer.

The moment this guy saw Zhang An coming in, he abandoned the chickens in the chicken coop and quickly climbed up the wall.

How could Zhang An let it go so easily? He immediately called on the two gray balls on his shoulders to attack it.

It is still dark now, and this is the time when the gray balls are showing their bravery.

The couple worked in perfect harmony, one chasing from behind and the other intercepting in front.

But the weasel is not an ordinary mouse. It is too fast. Every time when it is about to be caught by the gray ball and the others, it will immediately brake and turn around to avoid their claws.

Because of the restrictions of the roof in the chicken coop, Gray Ball and his wife couldn't catch the thing quickly and could only make some restrictions.

In the end, they failed to catch it and it escaped.

If it were in a wide area outside, it would probably have been killed by Gray Ball and his wife long ago.

However, it was not without gain, as Zhang An still found the way he got in.

It was not anywhere else, but precisely the gap under the eaves.

Although there were traps set under the eaves outside the wall, Zhang An quickly figured out that there was probably a large gap in one part of the trap, and the weasel was so slender that it had a loophole for it to drill into.

But now that I have run away, there is no point in regretting it. I can only wait until dawn to check it out and rearrange it.

But just as Zhang An was comforting himself, the big-haired creatures outside suddenly barked a few times viciously.

Zhang An immediately turned back outside and found that the weasel that came out did not escape, but instead went into the trap and was reuniting with the slightly larger weasel inside.

Zhang An was suddenly overjoyed. He had thought that he could just run away, but he didn't expect that he would be caught.

"It seems that this weasel doesn't have a very good memory. It can still take the wrong path."

After all, if you can get in, you can definitely get out. If you didn't remember the wrong way, how could you have fallen into the trap?

However, when he thought that some of the traps had too much space and they might escape, Zhang An stopped just staring at them. He immediately went back home to find the iron cage, determined to catch them both and put an end to any future trouble.

When Zhang An returned home, he found that his father had already gotten up.

"You got up. The dog was barking so loudly just now. What happened? Did the weasel run away again?"

Seeing Zhang An, Zhang Jianguo immediately asked.

He was not woken up at first, but later the cries of Da Mao and the others became louder and he heard them.

"Yes, they came here again tonight, and there are two of them. Now they are trapped. I will find an iron cage and I must catch them."

Time waits for no one. In order not to give them any chance, Zhang An just told his father something roughly and then went into the room to look for the iron cage.

When Zhang Jianguo heard that two weasels had come and were caught in a trap, he immediately lost all desire to sleep and walked out carrying the wooden ladder from his home.

Sure enough, when he came outside, he saw two weasels jumping around in the trap, squeaking anxiously.

These guys are usually very smart and rarely find themselves in such a desperate situation.

Soon, Zhang An came to the yard carrying an iron cage.

This cage is not small and is made of welded steel, so it is very sturdy. It was used to catch mice in the fields in the past.

But after the advent of gray balls, there were no more rat infestations in the fields, so the cage was put aside.

Now is the perfect time to catch weasels without worrying about them escaping.
