Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 883: The Ubiquitous Secret War

Chu Xiangqian stayed at home for three days. That day, he took Chu Jingrong, Dazhuang and Hongniu with him, and rode his bicycle to the forest farm.

On the roads of this era, driving is not as fast as Chu Xiangqian riding a bicycle.

Of course, someone like Chu Xiangqian, who has extraordinary physical strength and power, will not feel tired at all, which is why he can do this.

If it were a normal person, he would definitely take a car.

As for Chu Jingrong, he sat on the small wooden chair on the front bar of the bicycle, looking here and there along the way, looking so happy.

Whenever he saw the production team's cows eating grass on the ridges of the fields, he would point at them and shout, "Dad, cow, cow, cow."

Chu Xiangqian just thought of it as taking his precious son on an outing, so he didn't ride very fast.

It should have taken only an hour and a half to get there, but it took me three hours to get there.

I didn’t go into the forest farm to avoid another round of social interactions.

You might even be dragged away and forced to have a drink at the forest farm in the evening before being allowed to leave tomorrow.

In the past two years, Ehime has never stopped the bamboo weaving that she is in charge of, so the life in the forest farm and several villages around it has obviously improved a lot.

If Chu Xiangqian entered the forest farm, especially with his eldest son Chu Jingrong, it would be basically impossible for him to leave.

After paying homage to his biological father, Chu Jingrong subconsciously did not smile when paying homage to this grandfather he had never met.

Then, according to Chu Xiangqian's instructions, he burned incense and kowtowed, and waited until he was carried away. After a while, the little guy started laughing again.

However, with the little guy's memory, he can definitely remember where his grandfather is buried.

If he comes a few more times in the future, he will never forget it.

Chu Xiangqian thought about whether to move his father's grave to Hong Kong Island.

Otherwise, when you come back in a few years, even the grave will be gone.

But he just couldn't make up his mind. After all, this kind of thing was not something that could be decided by him, the eldest son.

At least you have to tell your second uncle, third uncle, and even the forest farm.

But I can't tell you why I have to move away.

Even if he didn't mention it himself, there would be a high probability that no one would remember that the eldest of the three brothers of the Chu family was buried on the hillside of the Chu family's earthen house on the other side of the forest farm.

However, if we bring it up and our second and third uncles object and we don't move, it will be more likely to cause trouble.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but secretly think that he would have to continue the bamboo weaving business in the future.

No matter whether the forest farm or the brigade made the money, at least the secretary and cadres of the forest farm and the brigade would never touch the grave of Chu Xiangqian's father.

When we were going down the mountain, we suddenly saw a few wild boars jumping out of the forest in the distance.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but stop his bicycle out of curiosity.

It's only been two years since the famine, and the mountains where the bark of the trees had been stripped clean have recovered to the point where wild boars dare to come out?

The titmouse immediately followed Chu Xiangqian's order and flew away quickly.

Da Zhuang and Hong Niu had also noticed the wild boars and started to get restless.

When Chu Xiangqian first came to this world, he often took the two of them into the mountains to hunt.

Even during the Chinese New Year at the end of 61, I went into the mountains.

Under the pretext of hunting game, more than a dozen wild boars, dozens of rabbits, pheasants and some deer were released from the novice village into the forest.

Chu Jingrong followed his father's gaze and naturally saw the wild boars.

The little guy had a very strong sense of perception. After taking a few glances, he felt that these pigs were very dangerous.

Grabbing Chu Xiangqian's hand, he said, "Dad, please go. I don't like those things."

Chu Jingrong, who had never seen a wild boar, of course didn't know what to call it.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and said, "That's a wild boar. Dad has caught many of them before, but the meat isn't very tasty."

Chu Jingrong didn't like wild boars in the first place, and when he heard that they didn't taste good, he lost even more interest.

But Chu Xiangqian added, "If your uncle Zhuzi, Aiguo, and Aimin uncles made it, it would probably be delicious."

As long as his master and his friends were in Beijing, Sha Zhu would go to the Qianmen courtyard to cook every night with Aiguo and Aimin.

Then, together with those who love the country and the people, we packed our meals in lunch boxes and went home to eat.

Not only Chu Xiangqian didn't care, Xue Jinglan and the others didn't care about the food at all either.

Otherwise, even though they could have managed to rely on the cooking of Master's Wife and Sister Tao alone, after all, they were the ones who cooked both breakfast and lunch.

But without dinner, I can feel more relaxed.

When Chu Jingrong heard this, he immediately started staring at the wild boars again.

Chu Xiangqian had also seen through the mountain sparrow that in the forest, a dozen militiamen with guns in their hands were constantly driving several other wild boars out of the forest.

Seeing that it was human hunting, Chu Xiangqian didn't care about it anymore.

He smiled and said to Chu Jingrong, "Go home first, Dad will go out later to see if he can buy some wild boar meat.

Let Zhuzi and the others make you braised wild boar meat tonight, okay?"

Chu Jingrong nodded quickly, pointed to the road ahead, and shouted, "Let's go, Dad, let's ride faster."

Chu Xiangqian laughed, lowered his head and kissed the little guy on the top of his head, then he took a step and immediately increased his speed.

In just over an hour, we could already see the city walls of the capital.

In the evening, Sister Tao stewed a large plate of wild boar meat for more than three hours and then braised it herself.

Not only Chu Jingrong ate with gusto, but women like Xue Jinglan and the master also said that the food was delicious.

Tao Jie was so happy to receive the praise from the whole family that she smiled.

When he secretly looked at Chu Xiangqian, his eyes were full of tenderness.

Chu Xiangqian already knew what Sister Tao was thinking, but unfortunately he really had no interest in her.

I could only pretend that I knew nothing, but I still praised Tao Jie several times.

This woman was also easily satisfied. She knew that she had been married and the gap between her and Chu Xiangqian was too big. It was enough for her to be able to stay by his side.

Then the love in her heart was easily transferred to Chu Jingrong.

It can be said that her concern for Chu Jingrong is no less than that of Xue Jinglan, his biological mother.

Even when Xue Jinglan was pregnant with her second child, she sometimes became more and more annoyed with the naughty Chu Jingrong.

Because Tao Jie had prepared food in advance today, it was still early when Sha Zhu, Aiguo and Ai Min came over.

When Chu Xiangqian pulled him to the table, he immediately forgot that his wife and children were waiting for him to serve them food.

Fortunately, after dinner, it was only a little after 7 o'clock, which was almost the same time as Shazhu, Aiguo and Aimin made dinner every day.

The three of them carried lunch boxes, pushed their bicycles, said goodbye to Chu Xiangqian, and rode towards Luoguxiang while talking and smiling.

Before I knew it, it has been half a month since I returned to Beijing. It is now the end of November and the weather is getting colder.

After Xue Jinglan got up that day, she felt that this morning was colder than usual, and pushed Chu Xiangqian, who had slept with her last night.

Let him get up and see if it's snowing.

Chu Xiangqian rolled his eyes at his wife and said that if it really snowed, it would only be a little warmer than yesterday.

It will get even colder when the snow starts to melt.

However, despite saying this, Chu Xiangqian still got up and took a look at Chu Jingrong, who was sleeping alone in the small bed.

Seeing that he was covered with the quilt well, I felt relieved.

Apart from being naughty, the little guy does not behave like a 2-year-old baby at all when eating, sleeping, and peeing at night.

After I went out, it actually started snowing.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but feel that he had to prepare to return to Hong Kong Island for the winter. However, Chu Jingrong's birthday was on the 9th of next month, and if he left at this time, his second and third uncles would definitely be unhappy.

After all, this kid is the eldest grandson of the Chu family. His birthday is a big deal in the eyes of his second uncle and others.

So after Chu Xiangqian thought about it, he could only wait until after the 9th.

However, you can also pack your luggage in advance during these ten days.

By the way, let Jinzhi and Jinxiu prepare early.

The sisters and Jin were going to Hong Kong Island for the first time, so they definitely had a lot of things to bring.

Unfortunately, just when Chu Xiangqian wanted to give up and lie down, trouble found him.

Just after finishing breakfast in the morning, I saw my second uncle Xue Jianguo coming to my house with a serious face.

As soon as Chu Xiangqian saw his expression, he knew something was wrong.

Helplessly, he took Xue Jianguo to the study.

Before he even sat down, Xue Jianguo took out a document and said, "A few days ago, airport staff discovered that a person leaving the country was carrying two small lizards.

The other party said it was a pet.

But you should know that in October, we had some shocking news.

After investigation, we found that the two little lizards are only found in the northwest desert. And they also carry residual radioactive elements. "

Chu Xiangqian certainly knew that the mushrooms were cooked and had been successfully made into a unique delicacy.

Unfortunately, I was still abroad at that time, and it was impossible to notify myself in advance to come back to watch the feast.

Seeing Xue Jianguo talking about this, Chu Xiangqian's expression immediately became serious.

I took the document and read it quickly, and immediately understood what my superiors wanted me to do.

He looked at Xue Jianguo and said, "No problem, I'll have someone investigate this guy thoroughly."

Xue Jianguo no longer had any doubts about Chu Xiangqian's power abroad.

While feeling relieved, he still reminded, "Be careful, don't alert the enemy."

Chu Xiangqian chuckled. When it comes to monitoring capabilities, even the technology from decades later would definitely not be as good as that of the tit and the marten.

Especially the yellow marten, which is not big in size, but can eavesdrop on the target's voice from a distance of hundreds of meters.

And even if someone sees it, they will just treat it as a little mouse and ignore it.

Not to mention, the ability of the marten to dig holes and pass through walls is first-class.

Hiding in a tree, underground, or in a house will make it more difficult to be discovered.

Five days later, Shantiao finally found the European expert who volunteered to work in China in Lyon, France.

Under Chu Xiangqian's order, Huang Diaoer also boarded a plane to Moscow.

From Moscow, take a flight to Paris.

The titmouse flew to Paris, and caught the marten to Lyon.

After Chu Jingrong's birthday was celebrated in the Qianmen courtyard, Shanque and Huang Diaoer discovered that an Asian-looking man had come to their house looking for a target.

The conversation between the two also surprised Chu Xiangqian.

This Asian is not only the colonel station chief of Wanwan's investigation room, but also has in his hands a list of several European experts who have been working in the northwest of China for many years.

Chu Xiangqian immediately gave up monitoring the first target, but Huang Diaoer was not in a hurry to withdraw.

Instead, it continued to monitor the target, with the tit flying in the air, following the stationmaster.

Sure enough, the man did not go home, but met several foreigners again.

When the second foreigner appeared, Chu Xiangqian began to sketch with banknotes.

After studying for several years, Chu Xiangqian's sketching skills were now almost the same as those in photos.

Moreover, the characters drawn in sketches are more three-dimensional and lifelike than in photos.

After drawing three sketches, Chu Xiangqian thought about it and picked up the phone to call Xue's house.

He said he had gotten some venison and asked Xue Jianguo to bring it over to honor his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and the old man and lady.

The two men were actually the second uncle and brother-in-law, and they were only talking about ordering venison. Even if someone was eavesdropping, they would be able to figure it out.

Xue Jianguo arrived quickly. Chu Xiangqian had just put the whole deer, which had been cut up, into two bamboo baskets and put them into the storage room.

Then I heard the sound of a car engine, coming from far away.

I simply used a bamboo basket, put half a deer hind leg in it, and when Xue Jianguo came in, I pointed at the bamboo basket and told him to remember to take it away when he left.

Xue Jianguo took a look and nodded quickly.

Eating venison in winter is very nutritious.

The two came to the study and saw the sketches drawn by Chu Xiangqian. Xue Jianguo frowned and asked, "What are these?"

Chu Xiangqian explained, and Xue Jianguo immediately became serious.

When he was about to go to Ouchi to report with the sketch and a few names.

Chu Xiangqian said with a smile, "I think we can kill that Wanwan Stationmaster in France. And I guarantee that we will do it cleanly so that no one will suspect us."

Xue Jianguo rolled his eyes at Chu Xiangqian. This guy was still the same as before, obviously very smart.

But he always likes to kill his opponent directly.

Especially the Wanwan and Neon people.

He hurriedly advised, "Don't act on your own in this matter. Wait until I report everything to you."

Chu Xiangqian shrugged. It was not impossible to keep the man, but he always felt that it was better to kill such a dangerous enemy as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if you are not careful, your opponent will attack first, which would be troublesome.

“By the way, since the enemy has been able to contact the Europeans working here, it means that they have entered our yard and even our living room.

For those technicians working hard at home, protection must be strengthened.

Otherwise, if we fail to poach people, we might as well destroy these technical personnel.”

After listening to this, Xue Jianguo thought about it and nodded very seriously and formally.

Since we can contact foreign experts working in the Northwest, it is indeed not impossible to find out where the technicians who master the core technologies live.

Xue Jianguo's mind was full of worries at this moment, and he had no time to care about the venison in Zhukanli's basket.

Chu Xiangqian had no choice but to push his bicycle and deliver the deer hind leg to Xue's house himself.

The old lady invited me to chat with her for a while, and then we were at Xue's house again at noon, having lunch with the old lady.

Only then was he released.

Chu Xiangqian turned around and went to Shatan Street again.

While Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu were at work, he used the key to open the door and go in.

A deer leg, half a piece of wild boar, and a dozen processed pheasants and rabbits were hung under the eaves of the kitchen.

It's snowing, so these foods should be able to be preserved for a long time.

This winter, Qin Huairu and Lou Xiao'e will basically no longer lack meat.

Next to the rice jar, there were bags of over a hundred kilograms of rice and two bags of flour.

Then he slowly rode his bike home.

But his days became comfortable again. In a meeting room in Ouchi, a heated discussion was taking place.
