Chapter 193 192 Dog Goose

One night after Tang Zhitong came to Anton, he stayed in the wing of Tang Wenbang's house. This room turned out to be the room of his second cousin Tang Wang, which had been vacant since he joined the army.

Although it is no longer cold now, the wing room has not been occupied for a long time, so Tang Zhitong's aunt still thoughtfully lit the fire in the afternoon.

It was a torture for a young man to sleep on a hot bed. Tang Zhitong drank a lot of mountain spring water that night.

If you drink too much water, you have to go to the toilet, but the two dogs outside are not very friendly to Tang Zhitong...

Early the next morning, Tang Zhitong got up and washed his face. After breakfast, Tang Wenbang took a bun and led Tang Zhitong to the place where the dog was tied. He broke the bun in two and handed it to Tang Zhitong.

When the two dogs saw Tang Wenbang, they were overjoyed, wagging their tails with lowered eyebrows and drooping eyes, not to mention how docile they were.

Tang Wenbang first untied the other end of a dog's rope, held the dog in his hand, and walked towards Tang Zhitong.

The native dog was quite big. Tang Zhitong had never seen this battle before, so he took two steps back.

"I'm watching and I can't bite you. Just stand still and don't move." Seeing that Tang Zhitong was afraid, Tang Wenbang reached out and grabbed the dog's collar.

Tang Zhitong nodded and decided to trust his uncle for once.

Tang Wenbang led the dog and slowly walked to Tang Zhitong. Under the dog's gaze, he handed the rope to Tang Zhitong's hand. He grabbed the collar with his other hand and said, "Hold the eucalyptus."

Tang Zhitong did as he was told, and then the dog snorted twice, sniffed at Tang Zhitong's feet, and then sat down just like that!

"Okay, just give him a piece of cornstarch and throw it on the ground." Tang Wenbang let go of his hand at this time and told Tang Zhitong.

Tang Zhitong still did as he was told. After the dog devoured a piece of steamed bun, not only did it not bite or bark, it actually wagged its tail at Tang Zhitong!

"Uncle, isn't this amazing?" Tang Zhitong was quite surprised. He had never seen such a humane dog in his entire life.

"This is a hound used for hunting. It is more humane. Giving you the rope and feeding it is equivalent to recognizing the owner." Tang Wenbang happily explained to Tang Zhitong.

"It's interesting." Tang Zhitong wrapped the dog leash around his wrist, and then touched the dog's head twice. The dog narrowed his eyes and looked like he was enjoying it, and licked Tang Zhitong twice. The surface of his tongue was a little rough, but very warm.

Following this example, the other dog followed suit.

After Tang Zhitong fed the two dogs, he squatted down to stroke the dogs' heads and received a lick. Both hunting dogs were black, and their tongues were black and red.

"Give me the rope. The dog is dirty and has fleas." Tang Wenbang stopped the interaction between Tang Zhitong and Gouzi.

"Uncle, I just saw something black on the tongues of these two dogs. Didn't they eat something bad?" Tang Zhitong handed the dog leash to Tang Wenbang, clapped his hands and asked.

"No, this is called flower tongue. The hunters here have a saying that 'you can see flowers when you open your mouth, and you don't have to worry about food and clothing.' This flower refers to flower tongue." Tang Wenbang explained to his nephew while tying the dog.

"Don't worry about food and clothing, does it mean that the dog doesn't have to worry about food and clothing?" Tang Zhitong asked curiously as he watched his uncle tie the dog up.

"Hahaha, it means that the owner of the dog does not have to worry about food and clothing." Hearing Tang Zhitong's understanding, Tang Wenbang was happy, "This saying means that dogs with colorful tongues are good hunters and can hunt a lot of prey, so the owner does not have to worry about it. food and clothing."

"Oh, oh, Lu is timid. Do you keep this dog for hunting?" Tang Zhitong held Huang on the left and held Cang on the right. Tang Zhitong was a little itchy. It was still early. If he could go to the mountains, it would be quite beautiful. "Occasionally I take it with me into the mountains to pack things, mainly for patrolling the mountains. This is a forest area with many wild animals. Whether it is logging operations or forest clearing operations in the forest farm, the Security Department will organize personnel to patrol the mountains and remove those that are not in use. Wild beasts with open eyes are driven into the mountains to avoid wild beasts hurting people during work." In order to prevent Tang Zhitong from making a joke, Tang Wenbang gave a general explanation to his nephew.

"So, these two dogs can also be considered forest farm employees?" Tang Zhitong had heard of organized dogs before, and this was the first time he saw them.

"It's our dog. How can anyone treat a dog as an employee?" Faced with his nephew's whims, Tang Wenbang replied dumbfounded.

"Hehe, that's because I was overthinking it." Tang Zhitong gave in decisively. The positions were limited and there was no place for people to arrange work, so how about giving arrangements to dogs? It can only be said that times are different and circumstances are different.

"Let's go, I'll take you to your sister-in-law's house to find the door. Your uncle might be waiting for you at home." Tang Wenbang dug out a spoonful of shredded tobacco and lit it.

Tang Wenbang smoked, and Tang Zhitong offered him a cigarette. He thought the cigarettes were boring and wanted to smoke his own dry cigarettes.

"Okay, I'll go with you." The things he brought were almost divided last night, so Tang Zhitong simply went over empty-handed.

Tang Wenbang lives in the east, and Tang Ting lives in the west, not far from the river.

Along the way, Tang Zhitong heard the quacks of geese and ducks from many houses. He even saw many flat-haired poultry waddling toward the river to look for food.

When we arrived at my sister-in-law's house, she was indeed waiting at home.

My sister-in-law's family were all hospitable, even the geese in the house were so hospitable. When they saw Tang Zhitong, they were like fighter jets, swooping over with their necks pressed down.

Tang Wenbang, who was on the sidelines, stretched out his hand to grab the goose's neck, pulled it up and wandered around twice, and threw it out. He didn't care whether the goose understood it or not, and complained: "I ate a biting goose yesterday, why don't you still?" Improve your memory, I will eat you next time."

"Okay, let's eat this today." Su Xiao came out to welcome him. Hearing what his uncle said, he immediately agreed.

"What are you going to eat? You can't live anymore? You can believe it if you scare this flat-haired beast." Tang Wenbang knew that his brother-in-law's family was not rich, so he glared at him and stopped him.

"Uncle, I'd like to trouble you about entering the city." Tang Zhitong changed the topic at the side. It was inappropriate for him to pick it up, and he didn't explicitly say that he was being entertained...

"It's a small matter, you have breakfast here, and we'll go over." After being scolded by Tang Wenbang, Su Xiao didn't look embarrassed at all, and still said to Tang Zhitong in a pleasant manner.

"No, I've eaten at my uncle's house." Tang Zhitong waved his hands repeatedly.

"Have you eaten? If you have eaten, just bring the eucalyptus over there. I was so busy yesterday that I forgot about it. If you make up for it early, your family will be relieved." Tang Wenbang was referring to the telegram.

While drinking last night, Tang Zhitong suddenly remembered that he did not send a safe telegram to Xiao Wang when he got off the car. At that time, he said that he wanted to send a telegram to his family. Su Xiao then said that he would handle the matter and he could find the car.

Tang Gang suggested that he could use the forest farm's phone number to call home, but Tang Zhitong didn't agree. When I rang the phone at night, no one answered in Beitu, and no one answered at the store in front of my house. Even if I called today, it would take a lot of time to wait for the connection. Besides, the call is charged in both directions. If it is not urgent, it is better to send a text message. It is urgent today. You'll receive it in the afternoon.
