Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 229: When the chicken urinates, you give me two bites

"Children, don't be greedy. After Laba Festival, it's New Year. How many days can you drink Laba porridge? Twenty-three, twenty-three, sugar melon sticky, twenty-four, clean the house, twenty-five, frozen tofu, twenty-six, stew pot meat. , twenty-seven to stew a chicken, twenty-eight to make noodles, twenty-nine to steam steamed buns, stay up all night at thirty, twist and turn on the first day of the new year, walk around the streets on the second day of the new year..."

In the courtyard of the old Xu family, Xu Feng was playing rubber band with Jin Yumantang. He was sweating profusely but not tired. He was shouting jingles and having a great time.

In the outer room, Liu Lizhen listened to Xu Feng chattering, holding her forehead and shaking her head: "Er Ning is just talking nonsense, can you fall asleep by jumping rubber bands at night?"

Wang Shujuan said: "He wants Feng'er to stay away and not bother him..."

"Why don't you say that Er Ning has a sharp mind and can think of any trick, just to torture his little sister." Wu Qiuxia said with a smile.

Yang Shuhua squeezed the sauerkraut dry, turned around and said, "Auntie, don't prepare meals for them tomorrow when they go up the mountain. Let them go to my place to eat in the morning."

"That's okay, Shuhua, do you have any cotton wadding on your end?" Han Fengjiao asked.

Yang Shuhua nodded sharply: "Yes, Second Aunt, what do you want to do? Make a quilt or a cotton-padded jacket?"

"Make a cotton-padded jacket."

"You're just asking for money, I think you're looking for a cut! You're just asking me for money, how can I have any money in my pocket..." Xu Laowen patted his trouser pockets and said aggrievedly.

Liu Lizhen added a fire to the stove and said, "Why don't we take off all the quilts and put them on again? Anyway, I have nothing to do at home."

"It's settled." Wang Erli nodded: "Sister-in-law, let's leave in the morning on the third day of the Lunar New Year."

Xu Laowen was in a good mood. He ran up to Xu Feng and the others and jumped his rubber band twice. Xu Feng was so angry that he bared his teeth and screamed. He jumped on his feet twice and became dissatisfied.

"Hahaha, isn't this a metaphor?"

"Let's go for a walk up the mountain."

Hearing what Wang Erli said, Xu Ning immediately thought about it. The two old brothers must be stirring up trouble together. Otherwise, with a normal attitude, Wang Erli would definitely take the opportunity to eliminate Xu Laowen.

"Go away! Hey, these are all stacked up? How much does it cost in total?"

They have no time to relax at home. They have to cook, cook and clean the house all day long. They only have three or four hours of real free time.

At this time, three people walked in from outside the hospital, they were Xu Laowen, Wang Erli and Xu Long. Liu Lizhen looked outside and said in surprise: "Oh my God, it's been a long day and it's not completely dark yet. The three of them Just came back.”

Xu Ning leaned back and broke free, and was about to speak when he saw Wang Erli rushing over, grabbing his arm and saying with a sneer: "Brother, look at your chatter, why is Er Ning not doing good deeds? He is born like that A virtuous person!”

Wang Shujuan was surprised: "Sister-in-law, can you still play cotton?"

Han Fengjiao sells cloth to make cotton-padded jackets for Guan Hua. Although the two families haven't talked about business yet, Wang Hu and Guan Hua are getting along. Besides, when Wanye returns home, why don't she act like an old woman?

Liu Lizhen gave him a blank look and said, "Stop learning jingles from your second son. That's nonsense."

"That's great of you! You're so awesome."

"It's scheduled to be on the third day of the lunar month. I'll be looking for a car at the forestry farm on the second day."

Just when Xu Laowen came into the house, he heard this and said, "What am I like?"

Wang Erli and Xu Long didn't interfere. As soon as they entered the house, Han Fengjiao asked, "Have you found the car?"

He smiled and said: "Listen, my second uncle is still good at nagging."

After saying that, Wang Erli opened the door curtain and entered the east room.

Just as Wang Erli was about to hurry up, he turned around and said, "Didn't Er Ning tell you last time that you wouldn't let us go to Lengchang to see Lei Zi? Why are you so anxious?"

Wang Erli was stunned and waved his hands hurriedly, "Who do you think your second uncle is? Can I be like your father?"

When Han Fengjiao heard about this, she slapped her thigh suddenly, "Oh my God! I forgot about this. How can I deal with this, sister-in-law! Then Leizi is still working in the farm..."

"Okay! Then when I have time, I will ask Qiangzi to make a bow, and I have to build a frame."

Xu Ning said with a smile: "Second uncle, isn't this blocking your way? You can't go out on the street to find some money?"

Xu Laowen let go of his hands and sat on the edge of the kang, covering up the matter, and asked casually: "Why didn't your uncle come over?"

Wang Erli waved his hand, "Brother, what are we worrying about? Everyone has his own way of peeing, do you understand?"

"Yeah, my grandpa's family used to do this kind of thing. I've been doing it for several years, but I have to have the skills to do it."

In the house, Xu Ning, Wang Hu and others were 'playing money', that is, stamping on yellow paper. Wang Biao and Liu Tianen were sitting on the edge of the kang, folding 'grams'.

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Daming stepped into the house, followed by Xu Feng and Jin Yumantang. Liu Daming was holding a sack of mushrooms in his hand and said, "Sister, Lao Jiang brought a bag of mushrooms."

Xu Ning raised his head and said, "What, you want to reimburse me?"

"My sister-in-law..."

Seeing his daughter angry, Xu Laowen laughed and ran over to shave his beard, but was ruthlessly rejected by Xu Feng, who only let him and Li Mantang hold rubber bands while she danced with Li Jinyu.

Liu Lizhen stood up and opened the lid of the pot, using the gourd and gourd to pour boiling water into the kettle, "Why did Jiao'er go to Wanye and settle down with Erli?"

"Ah, I just remembered. No, what does Er Ning mean? Why aren't you allowed to go?"

Just as Xu Ning was about to start, Xu Laowen hurriedly rushed over in three steps and two steps at a time. He raised his hand to cover his mouth, glared and gritted his teeth and said, "It's the New Year, can you accumulate some virtue?!"

But now they are covering each other, so they must be working together to do something big.

"It's not good, it's getting longer every day."

"Hey, have you bought everything? Er Ning is doing well now, so my dad and I usually go to the streets during the Chinese New Year. This time it saves us the trouble."

"Hai Quan had to come over a year ago, and Xiao Hua also had to come if she wasn't ready. Are you two prepared?"

"Okay, you need to use new cotton to make cotton-padded jackets. It can also be used to make quilts."

Liu Lizhen was confused by these words, and she asked with a puzzled face: "Old Jiang? How did you meet him?"

"Ah, I met this guy on my way to Nanshan today. I chatted with him on the way. He heard that our family was running out of mushrooms, so he brought him a sack."

Xu Chunlin opened the door curtain and said, "Then give the mushrooms a good mix and take some home."

"What else are you taking here? Just leave it here and throw it away." Liu Daming said.

"Did Lao Jiang say anything?"

Liu Daming entered the room and sat on the edge of the Kang. He took the cigarette from Li Fuqiang and said without thinking, "I didn't say anything."

This old Jiang is also a hunter. He is a few years older than Liu Daming and a few years younger than Xu Chunlin. His wife has passed away for more than ten years, and he and his daughter are the only ones in the family. This daughter is a classmate of Wang Biao and Liu Tianen, and her name is Jiang Qiu'er. .

Although he is a hunter, he mainly deals with yellow-skinned and red-skinned men. Sometimes he doesn't dare to do anything when he encounters a black blind man, so he comes to find Liu Daming. Then Xu Chunlin leads Wang Erli up the mountain to beat the black blind man.

In the first few years, when Xu Long was a soldier and Xu Ning was playing outside, they had four black blind men in the mountains. After the bear bile was sold, Lao Jiang took two shares, leaving each of them with one share, and Xu Chunlin didn't want the bear. He gave the bear skin to Lao Jiang. As time went by, the relationship became closer and closer.

It’s just that Lao Jiang was not very lucky this year. He broke his leg in the mountains and raised it on the kang for three months. The injury just healed in the winter. Then he led the two dogs at home into the mountains to wonder about the other side of the shell. The big solitary pig wanted to earn some bounty, but unexpectedly he was shot through the chest with Xu Chunlin, Wang Erli, and Liu Daming in the mountains.

Lao Jiang didn't know about this before. He listened to Liu Daming's nonsense and counted the days to figure out the time, so he found out...

"Ah, he said that the two dogs at home were kicked to death by the big orphan pig. After that, he said that we came back empty-handed last time, maybe because of his two guns."

Xu Laowen nodded: "Well, I think it's him too. In the next two or three days, I heard that his dog died. You can take half of the roe deer to him tomorrow."

Such a relationship must be maintained. When Lao Jiang broke his leg, Xu Laowen and the others went to see him carrying cans of dry cigarettes, ten pounds of corn noodles, and ten pounds of corn stubble.

After all, these young men provided them with four black blind men, and the bear bile they sold each received three to four hundred yuan. Bear bile was cheap at that time, and the price was certainly not as good as it was in the past two years.

Besides, after Lao Jiang broke his leg, his daughter was the only one left in the family. Without his only source of income, life would definitely be difficult. Besides, Lao Jiang was doing well. I heard that Xu Laowen and others went home empty-handed because of his two shots, so he got a bag of dried mushrooms.

Now the old Xu family, including the Wang and Liu families, are much richer, so they have to come and go, and there is nothing wrong with sending some roe deer and wild boars.

"Yeah! Then you can't tell me about my second nephew? Right, Er Ning..."

Xu Ning waved her hands quickly, "Hey, uncle, don't pull it on me. I'm not the head of the family. Just put a condom on me."

"Haha, aren't you kidding me? Looking at your eyes, I guess you're not holding anything back."

Xu Ning grinned and said, "Uncle, these words make my nephew very sad."

"Hahaha……"

Wang Biao and Liu Tianen looked at each other while listening to their chatter on the kang. Then Wang Biao put down the origami work in his hand and said, "Uncle, I will go and deliver it to you tomorrow."

"You can be found everywhere! You can just stay at home." Wang Erli said.

Xu Chunlin said with a smile: "You three will go tomorrow and get half a yellow-haired pig. Biao, have you fallen in love with Jiang Qiu'er?"

"Hey! Uncle, I'm not complaining! I just wanted to visit...Jiang Qiu'er has been buried in the house all day long. She has a big nose and is blinded by snot. Can I like her?" Wang Biao explained hurriedly.

Hearing this, Xu Ning burst out laughing. His laughter was quite puzzling to the people in the room, because what Wang Biao said was very serious, showing disgust both inside and outside, and there was no laughter at all.

But Xu Ning knew that Wang Biao didn't hold it in well, because Jiang Qiu'er gave birth to two sons for him in his previous life, and he spent an extra 500 yuan for this. In other words, Wang Biao and Jiang Qiu'er are a couple!
"Second brother, why are you laughing?" Wang Biao pouted. He was obviously heartbroken by Xu Ning's laughter, so he pouted to relieve the embarrassment.

"Ah, I didn't laugh at anything. It was just a funny thing to think about."

Xu Laowen raised his eyelids and said, "What's the matter? You Nao Nao makes us happy too."

Xu Ning crossed his legs and said with a smile: "It is said that one night, a derby boy was lying on the wall of another house and was grabbed by a rough man with one hand. After that, the rough man asked him where he was from Gaha. He said two things I don’t know how to solve math problems, but I want to learn…”

When Wang Biao heard this, his face suddenly felt numb. He hurriedly climbed from the top of the kang to the edge of the kang, and put his arms around Xu Ning's shoulders, "Second brother! Second brother! Don't fix it..."

"Hahaha... Do you think it's funny or not?" Xu Ning leaned back and grinned.

Wang Biao's face was red, and he looked at Wang Erli and Xu Laowen carefully. When he saw that their faces were dull, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Laowen rolled his eyes and said: "What am I thinking about? Isn't it just that Biao wrote two poems and wanted Jiang Qiu'er to taste them? Is it right?"

"Ah, how do you know?"

Wang Erli said with a smile: "How many times have we traveled to the mountains with Lao Jiang, how can we not know anything? The last time Biao Tiaowu suppressed the love letter, why was your second aunt angry? She was afraid that he would go to Jiang Qiu'er again... …This pervert!”

When Wang Biao heard this, he was stunned and lay down on the kang, feeling helpless. "It's over now. My reputation in this life will be ruined in the hands of this old woman."

Xu Laowen snorted: "What are you talking about? Are you saying that your mother is an old woman?"

"No, sir, how can I say this? I mean Jiang Qiu'er... I wonder if you don't know about this. Hey, how can I see anyone this time?"

Wang Biao covered his face and got into the quilt, while Liu Tianen grinned beside him and gloated.

"Come on, put the table down quickly, it's up to you to take care of it."

Wang Erli said with a smile: "That's it. Listen to your mother more and stop approaching Jiang Qiu'er. Then let Jiang grab your leg and give you a discount! I don't know who this kid learned from..."

Xu Long stood at the door and crossed his arms, "Who else can I learn from? I learned from his second brother."

Xu Ning raised her voice and said: "Don't rely on me for everything. Why don't you learn from me for good things?"

Chai Bing smiled and said, "You haven't done anything good either."

"Haha..." Everyone in the room raised their heads and laughed.

In the evening, around seven o'clock.

Everyone had dinner at Lao Xu's house, sat on the edge of the Kang, drank some tea, and chatted.

Immediately, the Liu, Wang, and Li families carried their things and headed home. Xu Ning and Chai Bing also took a dip and returned to the west room to turn off the lights and sleep.

Liu Lizhen took out the autumn clothes and autumn trousers that Yang Shuhua bought for us from the cabinet and said, "Shuhua bought us a set of autumn clothes and autumn trousers. The color is very fresh... you can try it."

Xu Laowen was stunned, "Did Shuhua buy it for me? Hey, I... this guy is quite festive, haha..."

Liu Lizhen said: "I also bought a pair of red socks for each of our families. There are sixteen pairs in total. It cost a lot of money."

At first, Xu Laowen was very happy. When he received the autumn clothes, he looked at them and listened to what Liu Lizhen said. He frowned and said, "Why is this kid spending money so blindly? I have several sets of autumn clothes and I can't even wear them."

"Everyone has been bought. Stop saying this. Just wear it if you buy it." Liu Lizhen gave him a blank look.

Xu Laowen sat on the kang and took off his socks, "Don't I want to? This kid has just earned some money and his family is getting better. Why don't you save some money? I didn't say anything when I bought those rice noodles last time. What."

"Hey, isn't this nonsense? I wanted to say this at first, but Er Ning secretly told me that his sister-in-law had a lot of thoughts, and if I push her, my good intentions will easily wilt. I just thought about it. I'm satisfied, my child is thinking about it, if I say those disappointing words, Shuhua will definitely feel unhappy in her heart..."

Xu Laowen nodded as he listened: "That's right. I was very happy just now. I just wanted to talk to you in secret."

These days, few parents are willing to listen to their children, but since Xu Ning learned well, Liu Lizhen has become more and more palatable to his words, almost to the point of believing everything he says.

Even though Xu Laowen was usually at odds and irritated with Xu Ning, this was the way they got along with each other as father and son, and Xu Laowen was also a reasonable person, so as soon as Liu Lizhen finished speaking, he figured it out.

"These two children really regard us as relatives."

Xu Laowen nodded: "Well, I've figured it out a long time ago. It's what it should be. It's good for Er Ning to have these buddies."

"It's not that good. I feel like I'm thinking about all the bad friends he used to deal with. Do you remember those three people he brought back the year before last? Oh my god, they are tattooed with dragons and tigers... but they are also very particular. They give them back before leaving. I'll throw in ten dollars."

"Just accept the money." Xu Laowen curled his lips.

"Are you talking about yourself? Come on, give me your cotton-padded jacket and trousers."

Xu Laowen was stunned, "Gaha?"

"I'll change your clothes tomorrow, please hurry up!"

Xu Laowei muttered a few words in a low voice, and after giving the cotton-padded jacket and trousers to Liu Lizhen, he saw her rummaging through her pockets, but unfortunately she didn't look through anything, and then threw the cotton-padded jacket and trousers on Xu Laowei.

"It looks clean to me. You can keep wearing it tomorrow."

Xu Laowen turned around and pressed his cotton-padded jacket and trousers onto the quilt at the soles of his feet. He turned around and asked, "Did Feng'er sleep with his second brother and third brother tonight? I heard they had a lot of fun in the West House."

"Don't worry about her, you've really spoiled this child. The guys from Erning's supply and marketing cooperative gave her ten pounds of candy and chocolate. She ate three of them in a while, and her mouth turned black!"

"Ah, give me a taste. It's bitter, but there's nothing to eat. Bird is black, bird is black..."

"What do you know? Er Ning said she should eat too much and be unable to sleep. Years ago, I ordered her to be beaten!"

Xu Laowen frowned and said: "Kill her, tell her what you have to say. If you don't understand, let Juaner talk. Don't keep doing it."

Liu Lizhen hummed and laughed twice, "I find it funny even when these words come out of your mouth. Then why are you taking action against Dalong Erning?"

"They are angry with me. How can I keep them if I don't cut them?"

"Then Xu Feng is angry with me. Is there anything wrong with me cutting her?"

Xu Laowen said anxiously: "She's a girl. Cut her. If you want to get angry, just give me a couple of cuts. Come on, I'll stick my butt out for you to cut..."

"Get out of here!"
