Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 233 Make a reservation in advance for painting cakes for mom
At around six o'clock, the sky was illuminated by the dark moon and dotted with starlight.

In the dark mountains, Xu Ning carried 56 half on his shoulders, grinned at Ma Liu, picked up the rope again, and pulled forward with him.

Since they set off from Changchangtang and dragged three deer at around four o'clock, they have walked nearly two points in the mountains. The road is not tortuous, but they need to climb four mountains. The horse is six years old and cannot keep up with the physical strength. , so the two of them almost walked stop and go, and it took them two hours to walk more than ten miles.

Three hundred or four hundred meters further, Xu Ning stood on the mountain ridge and looked down, and saw two car lights, while Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu were on the mountainside, holding Song Mingzi torches.

Xu Ning shouted twice. After hearing this, Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu hurried to his side.

"Fuck, I really can't keep up with the speed of your siege." Ma Liu threw away the rope in his hand, took out the pipe pot from his pocket, rubbed some dry tobacco into it, struck a match and lit it, and Baba took two puffs.

"Is it fast? I think it's okay." Xu Ning grinned.

Ma Liu said with cross eyes: "Do you know how we fought siege ten years ago? There were few dogs to feed back then. Let alone six dogs, few people even raised one dog. They all relied on their own eyesight.

After seeing the trace, they hurried home. Carrying the old foreign gun with their blankets on their backs, three or five people would go into the mountains together. Sometimes they would chase them for two days, and then drag them back. They would not be able to get out for three or four days, and they would wait until they got home to meet their companions. If you divide the meat into pieces, there will be twenty or thirty kilograms of meat left..."

The conditions at that time were naturally not as good as now. Besides, what kind of skills did Xu Ning have? He is young, physically fit and experienced, and his family background is also good.

There are also other reasons, that is, there are too many people living in the mountains around Qing'an, which has led to a decrease in the number of livestock in the mountains. The mountains in the north have a large horizontal span, with Wangxing to the west and Mudanjiang to the east. Although there are many residents along the river, hunters are not. Not much since they mainly fish and hunt.

Seeing Ma Liu dragging half of the deer up the mountain, Xu Ning walked to the front of the car and got in. Chai Bing stepped on the accelerator and drove forward.

"You take the deer heart back and eat it."

Xu Ning nodded: "Sure, this side is adjacent to the Mudanjiang River, and further north is the Lanmuji Hydropower Station. Hufeng and Wolong Mountain are both here, and the livestock is much thicker than ours."

"That's it."

Xu Long asked: "What are you doing again?"

When they parked at the north end of Dongshan Mountain, Xu Ning helped Ma Liu move the half-deer out of the car. Originally, he wanted to give Ma Liu away, but the old man refused to let him go.

"Brother, do you know where the three of us have been?"

Xu Ning said with a smile: "It's nothing. I'm trying to fix the three deer. It will take a lot of time to drag them back."

"That's not good."

"Brother, I saw that the three deer had been shot a lot. Why are they so raw?" Li Fuqiang asked.

"It must have been difficult to hunt animals at that time, after all, the guy and the conditions were just there."

Xu Ning said: "I haven't used the 56 and a half for a long time, so my hand will definitely be raw. It's a good thing that my third brother exchanged guns with me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to catch three deer, and the last one would have chased away nearly two miles."

Li Fuqiang said with a smile: "We have to deal with them!"

"Hit the bastard! This bastard green wolf walked twenty miles for the three of me! The gray wolf was not a thing at all. At that time, I finally found the mouth to pass the gun, and the bastard gave it to the old man when he got up. The sow took it out, and the old sow was so painful that she immediately kicked off. We pushed her back and pushed her away until she was a little bit..."

Xu Ning nodded, handed the cloth bag to Li Fuqiang, and said: "Third brother, you guys get in the car and stop at the north end of Dongshan Mountain."

"Satisfactory!"

Wang Hu said: "That's not good! Second brother, you didn't stay with Qian'er. If you did, these two dogs wouldn't dare to bully the three of us."

Li Fuqiang grinned, picked up the rope on the ground, and handed one to Wang Hu, "Pissing! I knew you couldn't come back empty-handed. Then shall we go down? Hurry home and pack up."

Immediately, Xu Ning and Ma Liu stepped down the mountain first, followed by Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu, dragging the sledge.

"Well, let's go back."

Xu Ning took out the deer blood from his pocket and said, "Then I'll get you a box of deer blood."

Li Fuqiang said: "Brother, there are a lot of pig tracks in this mountain. When we arrived at Miatai Dingzi, we couldn't stop looking at them."

Watching Xu Ning pull out the knife, Li Fuqiang took it and picked a larger deer. He asked Wang Hu to open the deer's legs to expose the deer's chest. He then raised the knife and chopped it into four or five cuts.

Immediately, Li Fuqiang, Wang Hu, and Xu Ning threw the deer into the trunk and climbed into the car. After sitting down safely, Chai Bing drove towards Qing'an.

Xu Ning said: "Then slow down!"

Xu Ning grinned: "Hahaha, I'll peel them off when we get home! What do you think, did you three finish them off?"

Hearing this, Xu Ning did not argue with Ma Liu. Since he said he wanted half a fan, then cut him half of the fan. It would be the same thing to give it to him later if there was anything missing.

"It's just a whole old sow, about two hundred pounds."

"Three deer and one old sow."

"Hey, what are you giving me? Go home quickly and don't come here before the New Year."

They chatted for a while in the car, and soon they entered Qing'an Village. They parked the car at the gate of Lao Xu's courtyard and hurriedly got out of the car. Xu Ning shouted twice towards the courtyard, and Xu Long, Wang Biao and Liu Tianen came. Ran out.

"It's enough, but I can eat more by myself? Chop it up quickly. I have to go to Dongshan later, so hurry up."

"Oh shit! Second brother, did you really trick the deer?" Wang Hu rushed up, saw the deer behind Xu Ning, and exclaimed.

At this time, Ma Liu said: "Give me half, and take back the rest."

Chai Bing came over, smiled and chatted with Xu Ning, and then everyone came to the back compartment. Xu Ning hissed at the green wolf and gray wolf in the car. They also knew that they had made a mistake and were yelled at. After two sounds, he lowered his head and lay down silently, not even daring to raise his head.

"where."

"Hurry up and unload the animals!"

At this time, Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu rushed up. Li Fuqiang asked hurriedly: "Brother, why did you come back just now? Is everything okay?"

"Is that okay? Can half of it be eaten?"

"No, get in the car quickly, I have to clean up when I get home."

Wang Biao's eyes lit up, "Oh shit! Second brother, that's so fierce! The New Year's dishes this time will definitely be pissy!"

"It's not that good. Of the livestock in the mountains, I just barely ate badgers and cowards." Liu Tianen said.

Wang Hu asked: "Stop nagging and help me quickly. The four of us haven't eaten yet. What's for dinner in the evening?"

"Sister-in-law stirred up the stew and steamed a bowl of chicken cakes for you, as well as sauerkraut and other things. There must be four or five vegetables."

"I'll just downgrade this dish by two grades." Xu Ning said with a smile.

Liu Tianen pulled half of the roe deer and said: "The main thing is the steamed stuffed buns stuffed with cabbage and bear oil that we eat in the evening, haha..."

When everyone carried the old sow and the deer into the outhouse, they saw Liu Lizhen picking up bowls and chopsticks, and Xu Laowen and others in the east room chatting.

"Third brother, hurry up and wash your hands and eat. Why did you come back just now?" Xu Laowen asked.

Chai Bing told the truth while washing his hands. After hearing this, Xu Laowen asked, "Did Er Ning go hunting with Ma Liu? Is it the letter that Ma Liu gave me?"

Li Fuqiang just finished washing his hands, opened the door curtain and entered the house, "No, uncle, didn't we go to deliver something to Ma Liu this morning? It happened that Ma Liu was packing his things and going to hunt down the deer, so my brother was looking for a partner.

But Ma Liu was a unique person, and he didn't want to talk to anyone except my brother. So, we divided into two groups. The three of us went to beat the dog, and trimmed the old sow, while the two of them pinched and tracked the old sow. with three deer. "

"Ah, that's what it is. Then sit down and use your chopsticks quickly. You don't have to wait for that little kid. Third brother, take a sip to relieve your fatigue." Wang Erli turned around and took the tea jar on the counter and said with a smile: "It's already morning. I've picked it up for you, and I won't come back even if I wait for you."

Chai Bing became friendly when he saw the medicinal wine and grinned: "Second uncle, give all these to me? I can't drink it."

"Then let me have a drink with you?"

"Drink some! It's not interesting for me to drink alone."

Xu Laowen smiled and said: "Erli, you and Lao San have some drinks, and Qiangzi quickly uses his chopsticks."

"Eh."

Xu Ning went to the latrine first, then washed his hands and opened the door curtain when he came back and went into the house. He found Chai Bing and Wang Erli drinking, while Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu had steamed buns in their hands and pickled vegetables in the other.

After he sat down, he said: "Third brother, it's too early to leave tomorrow. Just leave after nine o'clock."

Chai Bing nodded: "Okay, I'll leave you 56 and a half?"

"Pull it down quickly. We are too far away. If anything happens, you will have to use it."

Chai Bing said: "Let me tell you in advance, during the new year and autumn, you have to go to Wangxing to help protect the farmers, and you will be led by the gangsters and tigers. By then, the village will pay you the same salary as last time."

Xu Ning chewed the bun skin and said with a smile: "That's necessary. I'll call you if anything happens."

Chai Bing turned to Xu Laowen and said, "Uncle, do we need bricks to build a house in the spring?"

Xu Laowen smoked a cigarette and said with a smile: "I have studied bricks, sand, and wood. What, do you know anyone?"

"Who do I know? My house was only built in the first two years. There are a lot of bricks left. I thought I would just leave them. Wouldn't it be good to pull them over and build a courtyard wall?"

Wang Erli asked: "Are your courtyard walls made of bricks?"

"Yeah! The underside of the eaves is also paved with bricks. At that time, my eldest brother said he was afraid of rain, so he completely collapsed the ground under the eaves."

"Hey...brother, is this house built brightly?"

Xu Laowen nodded: "Open and bright! How much did your house cost in total?"

"More than two years ago, seven houses cost more than 6,000 yuan in total. Bricks and sand were expensive, but labor was not much. Uncle, in your forestry farm, wood would not cost much, but the floor in the house must be paved. Brick?"

Xu Ning said: "Third brother, didn't I tell you last time? I want to tidy up the terrazzo floor, and Lao Qian is giving me a contact person."

"Yes, I forgot about this. The terrazzo floor is also very good. It looks brighter than brick paving. Once you enter the house, the floor is smooth and comfortable. My aunt will definitely appreciate it."

Xu Laowen glanced at Xu Ning and said with a smile: "Your aunt is very strange. Isn't it because your brother talks to his mother about this all day long?"

"Ha ha……"

Everyone in the room burst into laughter.

It was past seven o'clock when they arrived home. After dinner, Wang Shujuan and Yang Shuhua removed the table. It was still early before going to bed, so they made some tea. A group of people gathered in the east room to drink tea and chat. .

Liu Lizhen called Xu Ning to the west room and asked Chai Bing what he would do with him when he left tomorrow.

"Deer, roe deer, old sow, pheasant, jumping cat, we don't have much else to play with here. Let's get some from the house."

Liu Lizhen gave him a blank look and said, "Then I don't know yet? I'm asking how much it will cost. The third child came here with a lot of things. Aren't you going to go care for the farmers in the fall of the new year? This is all provided by others. Qian Dao!”

"A deer, half a roe deer, an old sow, four pheasants, four jumping cats, that's all."

Liu Lizhen nodded: "Why don't you get some bear oil?"

"The black blind guy that Wang Xing beat last time produced more oil than we have left. What else can we use?"

"Ah, okay, let's cook some dumplings tomorrow morning and cut some pork jelly..."

Xu Ning frowned: "Why did you prepare pork jelly?"

"Let's do it now. It's been pressed outside for now. It won't be cured until tomorrow morning."

Xu Ning grinned and said, "I've already sorted it out. Why didn't you give me a cut?"

Liu Lizhen reached out and hit him on the shoulder: "You are the most heartless! All the delicious food is waiting for you, and you are still picky..."

Xu Ning hurriedly put his arms around his mother's shoulders and walked to the outhouse, "Hey, why do you pick my old son to manage it? When our house is finished, I will give you the entire big gold plate, how about it?"

Liu Lizhen pulled him away angrily and said, "Just draw a pie for me, just leave it alone."

At around nine o'clock, Li and Wang left, and Liu Tianen followed Wang Biao and Wang Hu back to the house. Xu Ning was a little puzzled, so when Chai Bing was soaking his feet in the west room, he came to the east room and asked Xu Ning. The old man mouthed.

Before Xu Laowen could speak, Xu Feng said: "Didn't I give my uncle two whips yesterday? Today I asked Brother Tian'en to remove them. He took out a small half bag and put it in the courtyard. Then he released it. The old uncle was startled and scolded him..."

Xu Laowen turned around and said, "This is just an introduction. The main reason is that Tianen is not good at studying. Your uncle wants him to go to the street to learn some skills."

"Ah, Tian En is only 15 during the Chinese New Year, why are you so anxious? Why can't you wait until you graduate from junior high school."

Liu Lizhen stood at the counter and wiped some colorful red, then turned around and said, "In four more years, Tian En will have to find a wife. It can be slow or fast. It will go by in a blink of an eye."

Xu Ning nodded: "Please don't get angry, old uncle. Why are you angry with your son during the Chinese New Year? Wait until I have time to go to the street and let Tian En learn something."

Xu Laowen frowned and said, "Why do you want me? Why are you angry with your son during the Chinese New Year?"

Liu Lizhen patted his arm, "You can't understand human language?"

Xu Feng jumped up and down on the kang and said, "Dad, you just want to pick on my second brother!"

Xu Ning looked at Xu Laowen, put his hands in his pockets and walked slowly towards the edge of the kang. Xu Laowen was happy when he saw his actions. Originally, he was just trying something new, and deliberately added some trouble to Xu Ning, so that he could make some money from him. What you didn’t think about came true!

Xu Ning walked to the edge of the kang, turned his trouser pockets with both hands, and grinned: "Nothing! Hahaha..."

"Oh shit, this little brat is just teasing his father! Just stand there!"

"Haha, go back to the house and sleep." Xu Ning laughed twice and ran to the outhouse.

Xu Laowen gasped in anger, and Liu Lizhen sneered from the side: "That's right! Let you play tricks on my son."

"Who is playing tricks? Didn't his words just hit me..."

"You know it in your heart, and I'm telling you, don't think you have some spare money in your pocket, so you just scream!"

Xu Laowen nodded and said: "I really have no money. If you don't believe me, just look in my pocket."

"Hey, you have one hundred and eighty places to hide money. Can I look through them all? Feng'er, take off your clothes and go to bed."

"Yeah, Mom, you can sleep with me tonight."

Liu Lizhen waved her hand: "Pull her down quickly. You are not a good sleeper. Stop getting under my quilt."

"Hey, mom..."
