Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 261 I can’t help but feel at ease

Through the window of the east room, you can see Yang Yusheng and Xu Laowei, holding each other's shoulders and laughing wantonly. I don't know what topic they talked about.

Li Fuqiang saw his brother frowning and asked, "What's going on, brother, why are you frowning?"

"It's nothing..."

At this time, Yang Shuhua stepped out of the room and called out: "His dad, go grab a bundle of firewood and wait for the fire."

"Hey!" Li Fuqiang responded, patting Xu Ning's arm to signal him to quickly enter the house, and then rushed to the woodshed.

Xu Ning stood there, put his hands into his cuffs, and strolled to the latrine. After he untied his trousers and released them, he suddenly felt a chill, and his whole body shivered. After he lifted up his trousers and tied them up, Xu Ning suddenly felt a chill. , he suddenly thought of a ridiculous possibility.

"No way." Xu Ning muttered.

He passed by the west room window and took a look in, and saw Jin Yumantang playing Galaha with Xu Feng. Suddenly something came to his mind, and he said with a firm tone: "I'm really unprepared!"

In the outhouse, smoke rose from cooking, the sound of cooking was heard, and the clatter of spatulas against large pots stopped Xu Ning as he stepped into the door. He turned around and saw Wang Biao looking for a bowl in the kitchen. He walked over and pulled his shoulder, "Biao, come into the house and call your uncle out. Just tell me that I have something to do."

There are two tables on the kang and one table on the ground. Even the adults who had no work to do were all on the kang, the children were all in the west room, and the ground in the east room was still crowded with people. Wang Biao entered the room and put down the bowls and chopsticks, almost unable to turn around.

Xu Laowen took a puff of cigarette and said: "It's very good. I have a good chatting skills and a cultured mind. I used to go to the aid of North Korea just like your father..."

Xu Ning glanced at the door of the courtyard and whispered: "I think the third uncle should be from the Forestry Bureau of our city. Maybe he is the new second-in-command!"

It must not have been mentioned more than thirty times, but it must have been mentioned more than ten times. Xu Ning had to exaggerate, otherwise Xu Laowen would not be able to take it seriously.

So when Xu Ning thought of this, and combined with Yang Yusheng's over and over again to lead the topic to the forest farm, such a ridiculous possibility came to mind.

"Looks like an old farmer?"

"No, don't be nagging, just tell me what you mean."

Xu Laowen was about to shout, but Xu Ning raised his hand to cover his mouth.

Wang Biao was a little puzzled. There were only two steps together. Why didn't the second brother call him? But he didn't ask any more questions, and just took the bowls and chopsticks into the east room.

"Don't shout! Think about it, did he ask you a lot about the forest farm? Then think about the surname of the new second-in-command."

"Ah good."

"How do I know my last name? The city hasn't announced it yet."

Immediately, they walked into the courtyard and happened to meet Yang Yusheng and others coming out of the hut.

But Xu Ning doesn’t want to hide it. If a family is interested, they have to work together. It’s not good to hide it. If it’s as Xu Ning guessed, then when Xu Laowen, Yang Yusheng and others are drinking, , what should I do if I say the wrong thing?
Xu Laowang walked to the entrance of the courtyard with a cigarette in his mouth. He turned around and saw Xu Ning standing under the wall twenty meters away. He squinted his eyes from a distance and said: "Haha, tell me if you have anything to do."

Xu Ning raised her finger and put it on her lips, "Shh! Quietly!"

As Xu Ning said himself, even if Yang Yusheng is not the new second-in-command, he must still be from the Forestry Bureau. Otherwise, why would he be so concerned about the forest farm?

Originally, Xu Ning was a little hesitant, hesitating whether to tell his guess to Xu Laowen.

"Well! Dad, what do you think of my third uncle?"

Immediately, Xu Laowen, Yang Yusheng, Wang Erli, Liu Daming and others swarmed down to the ground, pulled on their shoes and walked out of the east room. Wang Erli and Liu Daming protected Yang Yusheng to the latrine, while Xu Laowen chased after Xu Ning. .

"Go quickly! This kid Erning is really good. I found him very strange at first glance. I just happened to be going to the hut to gather my troops!"

Xu Laolian smoked, "What's going on?"

"Haha, read more newspapers. What words can't you learn?" Yang Yusheng laughed.

When Xu Laowen and Yang Yusheng were chatting happily, they were stunned when they heard this: "What's the matter?"

Wang Erli smiled and said: "Look at Third Brother's culture, I have never heard of this term before."

"No, as long as you don't mention me, Uncle Guo and Master Zhang, just leave them there in the forest farm, and anyone with a discerning eye can see if there is anything wrong."

Because his guess was based on what happened in his previous life and the second half of his life, it was impossible to explain to Xu Laowen.

How did he see it? This matter has to start from the past life. In their previous lives, Li Jinyu and Li Mantang both worked in public institutions. Even if they graduated from high school or technical secondary school, how could they enter a public institution these days without any connections?

"I didn't say anything, I just told you to get out."

"That's definitely not the case! He's just a bit stooped, so he's definitely not a farmer. What do you mean?"

"Go have a j..."

The east room looks bigger than the old Xu's house, because the Li family has one row of missing cabinets, which frees up quite a lot of space.

"Uncle, my second brother has something to do with you."

"I've never heard of a person named Yang Yusheng in the Forestry Bureau before... OK, I know how to talk. You can't put your mind on the right place, why are you thinking about this all day long like your Uncle Guo."

Xu Ning smiled and said: "If I don't think about this matter, how can I go to work in the forest farm? Even though our family is doing well now, if something really happens, the blame will definitely not be revealed."

Xu Ning pulled Xu Laowen and said, "Dad, I heard you and my third uncle chatting for more than two minutes. In such a short period of time, he mentioned the forestry farm more than thirty times."

Xu Laowen nodded in a muffled voice: "Come in."

Xu Laowen turned to look out the window and saw Xu Ning walking down the street. He turned around and said, "Third brother, please sit down for a while. This little bastard in my family has nothing to do all day long. If he doesn't get over it, he'll think of something bad."

When Xu Laowen saw this, he walked over quickly and asked quietly: "What's the matter? Are you hiding from others?"

Xu Laowen took the last puff of his cigarette, poked the cigarette butt into the snow shell, and said, "When you say that, I feel a little bit wrong... I didn't say much just now, did I?"

Xu Ning said: "Then you believe me. I think the third uncle should be from the city's forestry bureau. Even if he is not the new second-in-command, you should pay more attention when chatting with my second uncle."

"What's going on? Did he tell you what he does? He must not have told you. My eldest brother and eldest brother Liguo are related to him, and they don't know what the third uncle does. He just said that he used to be in Ji Province. Later, I worked in our provincial capital for several years..."

"Brother, why don't you take a drink? Third brother said that you won't be allowed to leave the table if you drink later, and you will have to drink a glass of wine after leaving the table."

Xu Laowen grinned and said: "The third brother still knows how to drink, so I have to go for a drink. At this age, people can't hold it back. What kind of drinker does the third brother have?"

Yang Yusheng smiled and waved, pretending to be mysterious and said: "You'll find out later when you drink it."

"Sure, Erli, you and third brother go into the house first."

"Okay." As Yang Yusheng walked toward the outhouse, he tilted his head at Xu Ning and asked, "Why don't Er Ning have a drink with Third Uncle?"

"Third uncle, I quit drinking and can't accompany you. Let my dad and the others accompany you to have a good drink later."

"I heard that your marksmanship is very good?"

Xu Ning said: "The marksmanship is just fine. Third uncle, you are an expert in playing with guns. You have to practice the marksmanship to know whether it is good or bad."

"That's right. You can only know whether the gun is accurate or not after making a comparison."

Xu Ning said with a smile: "Hey, third uncle, do you have any idea of ​​going for a walk in the mountains with us?"

Yang Yusheng was obviously interested in asking this question, so Xu Ning took the opportunity to ask.

"When? I should leave in two days."

"Why are you so anxious? Third uncle, you finally came here. My eldest brother definitely can't let you stay for two days and then leave. Why don't you finish the fifteenth day?"

In the middle of saying this, the two of them just walked into the east room. Li Fuqiang listened at the door and answered: "It will definitely be after the fifteenth day before leaving. Third uncle, please stay here for a few more days."

Yang Yusheng said in a relaxed tone: "Besides, I'm mainly here to check on you and Shuhua. Seeing that you two are living a good life, I feel at ease."

"Hey, Third Uncle, I was the one who did it before. Don't do the same thing as me."

Yang Yusheng turned to look at him, "If I want to be like you, can I still enter your house? Come on, Er Ning, sit next to Third Uncle..."

Li Fuqiang pretended to be unhappy and said: "Third uncle, that's my seat usually. My brother is sitting next to you. Where should I sit?"

Yang Yusheng patted him on the shoulder, "If you don't drink, why are you sitting next to me? You're so stupid, you can sit next to your daughter if you see gold and jade."

"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed.

At this moment, the east room was full of people. Liu Lizhen shouted in the outer room. Wang Hu, Wang Biao, Guan Lei and others turned around and walked out. They picked up the trays, stacked the dishes, and then sent them into the room. , as the sound of "oil" sounded, Yang Yusheng, Xu Laowen and others also took their seats.

Counting from the left based on Xu Ning, they are Yang Yusheng, Xu Laowang, Wang Erli, Liu Daming, Yang Liguo, Xu Long, Wang Hu, Guan Lei and Li Fuqiang. There are exactly ten people in total, and it is not crowded around the table.

The rectangular table next to the end of the kang is where the ladies sit, while the children sit around the table near the end of the kang.

Today's cuisine can be said to be more abundant than the New Year's Eve at Lao Xu's house, because the dishes prepared are quite complicated. One of the dishes, snowy bean paste, made Zhao Lan beat half an egg white, which made her arms sore.

In addition, there are pot-wrapped pork, fried crispy pork, braised pork with wild vegetables, shredded sweet potatoes, braised snapper, fried old man fish, pickled deer tendon, spareribs and beans, bear brain flowers, kelp, tofu and fish ball soup, bear tongue dipped in garlic paste, and Cucumbers mixed with pig ears, tiger vegetables, red sausage platter, cabbage hearts mixed with vermicelli... a total of sixteen dishes!
The cucumbers, side dishes in the tiger dish, dried tofu, pig ears, etc. were all brought by Yang Liguo. Yang Yusheng went to the provincial capital and brought a few pieces of turtle and red sausage made by the meat factory, as well as two barrels Wine and orange juice for children.

"Good! This dish is really good!" Yang Yusheng commented: "We didn't have such conditions at that time. During the Chinese New Year, we ate corn noodle cakes, and if we had sauerkraut stewed vermicelli, it would be delicious!"

"It's not that good. The third brother's words really touched me. One year, my old man specially stored five cabbages in the vegetable cellar. It was just in time for the Chinese New Year, and our family gathered around the five cabbages for the New Year's Eve dinner. ”

Wang Erli nodded: "Yeah, I just looked at five cabbages and ate the pastry. The pastry hurt my throat. My dad boiled some water before swallowing it."

Yang Yusheng smiled and said: "It's a good time for them. Look at this table of good food and good food. Can't they make three bowls?"

Xu Ning said: "Third uncle, I'm not complaining to you. I may not be able to finish three bowls. I'm tired of eating these days."

"Hahaha..." Yang Yusheng laughed.

Xu Laowen smiled and scolded: "This little bastard, tell me he's still out of breath."

"What are you doing when Li Guo is busy? Sha Leng is on the table. Why are there still dishes that haven't been finished?"

Just as Li Fuqiang was about to get up, Yang Liguo opened the door curtain and entered the room, smiling: "I'm going to wash my hands. Third uncle, what should we drink? Should we split up, or should we go alone?"

"Whatever group we share, let's each drink our own drink."

Xu Laowen smiled and said: "Erli, our mission is to accompany the third brother well."

At this time, Li Fuqiang said: "Old uncle, my third uncle's drinking capacity is bottomless. Don't be too honest."

Yang Yusheng said unhappily: "Hey, what are you talking about!"

"Bottomless? That means you can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."

"Anyway, I could drink a pound and a half before, and my third uncle drank about the same amount as me. I collapsed on the bed and fell unconscious, but nothing happened to him, just like us now."

"Oh my god, Third Brother, I can't control your drinking capacity... So what, otherwise I'll just take the drink and surrender."

"Hahaha, brother, you are timid before fighting. How can you be honest? Before a battle, the most taboo thing is to be intimidated. If you tremble first, the enemy will poke your lungs!"

Xu Laowen smiled and said: "Third brother, if you say that, I really don't accept it. Let's have a drink together later."

"Can two cups do it? Three cups!"

"Three cups is three cups, that's it!"

Yang Yusheng clapped his hands happily and said with a smile: "Okay!"

If Xu Laowen had really played some tricks before, but after Xu Ning's reminder, he really took it seriously. After finding out Yang Yusheng's background, Xu Laowen also understood how to chat with him.

Yang Yusheng has carried guns, fired cannons, and killed beautiful ghosts. These people who have been on the battlefield have one motivation, that is, never admit defeat. Just like the education of Xu Laowen and Wang Erli, they have to compare with each other. Only by making progress can we win the battle. This is a kind of spirit.

After everyone was seated, Yang Yusheng stood up and toasted, saying: "First of all, I have to thank my brother and sister-in-law for raising such a capable son. I have heard a lot about Er Ning, some good and some bad, but Through getting along with each other, I feel that Er Ning is quite good!

Just because I couldn't solve the problem, he solved it with one word and with practical actions! Before my old squad leader left, the only people I couldn't worry about were Qiangzi and my old sister-in-law. At first, Qiangzi was really good, not bad in nature, and energetic, which I really found rare.

That’s why I introduced my niece Shuhua to him. They lived a good life for a few years, but after my old sister-in-law left, Qiangzi changed. I didn’t know how to deal with it. I scolded him and beat him. , But it’s all nonsense, you beat me and scold me, but you won’t listen!

I was so anxious that I jumped up and down. At first I wanted to give up and wonder what he liked. After all, I wanted to grab him but I couldn't find his hand. What else could I do? It’s just hard on Shuhua.

This time I came here with great expectations. I really watched Qiangzi get better. I felt so at ease!

I won’t say any more words of thanks, I’m all in the wine. Brother, sister-in-law, none of you need to drink. I have to be quiet first, otherwise I will be sorry for my old squad leader! "

This speech was probably not written in advance, but was performed on the spot by Yang Yusheng. After hearing it, Xu Laowen felt that it was indeed of a high standard, much better than the leaders meeting on the spot.

There is no nonsense in the whole article, and there is no lengthy discussion. It only talks about the causes and consequences, as well as his relationship with Li Fuqiang and Yang Shuhua.

So there was nothing wrong with him drinking this glass of wine alone. At the same time, he also showed off his drinking capacity. He really complied with the saying on the battlefield: give the enemy a blow first and see if he trembles.
