  Chapter 115 Beating Roe Deer with Sticks

   Roe deer looks like a deer, but is much smaller than a deer.

  It is covered with thick, gray-brown bright hair, but there are no spots on the belly like sika deer. ,

  Some roe deer have short three-pronged horns on their heads, while others don't.

   This thing has slender legs and is extremely good at running and jumping. It runs very fast, and usually the hunting dogs can't catch it.

   Roe deer are docile by nature and have no ability to attack, so they all live in groups.

   It likes to inhabit places with a lot of grass and sparse forests, and often moves in secluded bushes.

   The group of roe deer in front of me looked like there were more than a dozen of them. They were running extremely fast, and they were about to run in front of everyone.

   It was Xu Shiyan who reacted quickly and immediately called out to everyone to drive the group of roe deer north.

  So everyone immediately raided from the south, swung axes, saws and other tools in their hands, and drove the roe deer to the north.

  The roe deer was running, and when it saw a person, it panicked immediately, and saw someone holding something to chase them from the south, so it turned around and ran north.

  Bypassing the mountain bag, there is a large shady **** to the north.

  At this time, the temperature is high during the day, and the snow melts and becomes soft and loose. At night, the temperature is low, and a smooth hard cover is frozen on top of the snow.

  Those roe deer had slender legs and small hooves. They rushed to the snow on the shady **** and got stuck in the snow.

  The snow under the ground is too hard, and the roe deer is stuck in the snow and cannot move.

  There is an old saying in the mountains, "Falling snow chases out rabbits, melts snow to hunt roe deer". It's the situation right now.

  Seeing that a dozen or so roe deer were all stuck in the snow, everyone was overjoyed.

  Go forward with the tool in your hand, hit the roe deer on the head, and knock the roe deer down.

   Beating roe deer with a stick, that's how it came about.

  Seeing that none of the dozen or so roe deer escaped, everyone was very happy, so they dragged the roe deer out of the snow.

  Now, I don’t care about picking up the big couplets anymore, I’ll deal with the roe deer first.

   "Wait a minute, I'll go over there and take a look."

  Xu Shiyan felt that something was wrong, so he dropped the roe deer in his hand and looked for it in the direction where the roe deer ran over just now.

  Walking out for two or three miles, I found a dead roe deer on the snow in the woods.

  A male roe deer, quite big, surrounded by blood.

   I don’t know what was bitten to death, my heart, liver and lungs were ripped out, and some of the flesh on my body was gnawed.

  Xu Shiyan looked around, and there were still a few footprints of plum blossoms with five petals on the remaining snow. Just look at the footprints and you will know that it is a wolf.

  Just now, it should be that the roe deer group was targeted by wild wolves and killed a big male roe deer.

  The rest of the roe deer ran away in panic, but met them head-on, and finally, the whole army was wiped out.

  The wolf must have heard someone and scared away, leaving behind the roe deer's body.

   Xu Shiyan dragged the dead roe deer all the way back to join the crowd.

   "Hey, Brother Xu, you are still amazing, and picked up another one. What killed it?"

  The boys were very curious when they saw it, so they came to look at the wound.

   "It's a wolf, let's work around here, be careful." The sooner the spring begins, the more careful it is.

  Everyone’s expressions were serious, and they nodded solemnly, “Well, you have to be careful.

  In the future, when we go into the woods, don't be alone, let's go together. "

  Now, I don’t care about picking up the roe deer, let’s get the roe deer back to the venue first.

  A dozen or so young men each dragged a roe deer back to the arena. This time, they made the other teams envious.

   "Didn't you go into the forest to pick up the big couplet poles? Why did you drag the roe deer back? Where did you meet?"

  The boys talked about the incident in a hurry, and the others felt emotional after hearing it.

   Isn't this luck too good? Just go into the mountains to pick up a big joint pole, and you can also meet a group of roe deer chased by wolves?

   Alas, there is no comparison between people.

  Wang Jiaren also came over, looking at the roe deer that these people under his hands made, he also followed suit.

   "Come on, hurry up and cut open the skin. If you cover it for a long time, it will stink."

   A group of boys, why are you being polite? He hurriedly searched for his belongings, and disemboweled and skinned a dozen or so roe deer.

  No need to work in the afternoon, Wang Jiaren left work for these people in his team in advance, the big guys divided the roe deer meat, and drove the carriage all the way home happily.

   "Daughter-in-law, do you see what I brought back?"

  Xu Shiyan returned home with half a roe deer on his shoulders, and said loudly before entering the house.

  Since I came to Donggang, I have been busy, and I have no guns in my hands, so I have no chance to go hunting in the mountains.

  The meat that was originally brought from the Dongjiang River could not hold back as the weather got warmer, and Su Anying had marinated it into bacon. The family hadn't eaten fresh meat for some days.

  Xu Shiyan opened the door and entered the room while talking, but there was no sign of Su Anying in the kitchen.

   Stretching his head into the east room, he saw his mother Zhou Guilan sitting on the kang, "Mom, why are you here?"

  Xu Shiyan was stunned for a moment, why is mom here at this time?

   "What's wrong? I can't come?" Zhou Guilan gave her son a white look.

   "We're looking at April, and I estimate that your wife is only half a month and twenty days away from having a baby.

   Then I have to come and take care of it? Or count on you? "Zhou Guilan laughed as she spoke.

   "My mother brought two old hens, a basket of eggs, and made small quilts, small clothes, and urinals for the children."

  Su Anying got off the ground with her big belly, and asked Xu Shiyan to put the meat down.

   "This is roe deer meat? Didn't you go up the mountain to work? Why are you still hunting roe deer?"

   Today's Su Anying is no longer the little daughter-in-law who knew nothing before.

  I followed Xu Shiyan on the mountain last winter, and I saw all kinds of prey, and I recognized it at a glance. It was roe deer meat.

   "Well, it's roe deer meat.

  There are not enough poles on the mountain, so we went into the mountain to pick them up, but we met a group of roe deer, and we drove them back into the snowy nest on the shady slope. "

  Xu Shiyan didn't mention the wolf biting the roe deer, for fear that his mother and daughter-in-law would worry.

   "Mom, how is your house? I've been busy since I moved here, and I couldn't even go back for the Lantern Festival. Is there anything going on at home?"

  Xu Shiyan put the roe deer meat in a big basin, took it to the kitchen, and went back to the house to talk with his mother.

   "There is nothing wrong with the family. After fifteen, I decided to divide the family.

  The fourth child brought his wife back to Qingling. He works there, and the Wu family is also there. Years ago, I made some money with you. It is enough to go out and find a house. "

  Bringing the separation, Zhou Guilan looked a little lonely.

  As an elderly person, who doesn’t want their children and grandchildren to be around?

   "Your second brother and his wife have moved out, and they happened to borrow the house of Old Litou's house.

   Just wait for a homestead to be approved from the team, and then build another house.

   When Xiaobo and Xiaotao grow up, they also have a house for them to get married and a wife. "

  Zhou Guilan thinks so far, even thinking about her grandson marrying a wife.

   "Your elder brother is with us, and your father and I will be gone in the future, and the house will be theirs.

  You brothers don’t have to worry about it. It’s been like this since ancient times. Whoever takes care of the elderly will get the family property. "

  According to the logic, it should be divided in this way. The eldest son and the eldest son should provide for the parents, and everything in the family belongs to the eldest son.
