The whole mountain is my hunting ground

"Pull him down quickly." Upon hearing that Li Baoyu wanted to trick his younger brother again, Zhao Jun hurriedly stopped him: "As soon as Ruhai can get to the ground, don't harm him."

That day, Li Ruhai secretly followed Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu up the mountain, but was beaten so hard by Li Dayong that he couldn't get up from the bed for several days.

"Then you're short of money, what's going to happen to this guy?" Li Baoyu's eyes widened and he asked, "Brother, you're not a deadbeat, are you?"

Zhao Jun shook his head, thinking that Wang Dalong's debt was not good, but said: "It's okay, I'll go home and ask my mother for money."

"My aunt..." Li Baoyu hesitated for a moment, but after thinking about it, he still said: "Like my mother, the money that goes into their pockets is not taken out without taking it out."

"What are you talking about!" Zhao Jun's eyes narrowed as he smiled, but he said, "You can't talk nonsense. What happened if you drank too much?"

When the two arrived at the door, they parted ways and went back to their respective homes.

The family already knew that they were late. Because Yang Yufeng had visited both families in person before the meal started, and invited the two families to have dinner together at her home.

Neither Zhao nor Li went, but with Yang Yufeng's notice, they didn't worry about their son coming back late.

Zhao Jun tied the white dog to Hua Xiao'er's kennel. At this time, Hua Xiao'er was still recovering from his injuries in the house, so he let the white dog occupy the magpie's nest first.

Then, Zhao Jun came into the house to see Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan.

Seeing her son come back, Wang Meilan hurriedly poured him a cup of hot water and asked about what happened on the mountain today. After hearing what Minister Li and Li Erchen did, Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan didn't know what to say.

If you deceive people once, it doesn't matter. If you deceive people again and again, then there is a problem.

However, this time it was not Zhao Jun who was tricked, so Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan just discussed it for a few words.

Then, Wang Meilan asked Zhao Jun what dishes he had eaten at Zhang Yuanmin's house. When Zhao Jun finished naming the dishes, Wang Meilan was surprised. Eight dishes were enough. The key is that there were six meat dishes in it. This specification was true. That's enough, but meeting the in-laws is nothing more than that, right?

Seeing that Wang Meilan was in a good mood, Zhao Jun came to her side, put his arm around his mother's shoulders and said, "Mom, do we still have leftovers for soup?"

"Yes." Wang Meilan looked at him in surprise and asked, "What? Didn't you have enough to eat at his house?"

"I'm full." Zhao Jun said: "I brought a dog back, and the dog's belly is still pinched. Mom, you can boil some corn noodles for it, and then make some vegetable soup."

"What the hell?"

When Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan heard this, they both got off the kang, put on their cotton-padded jackets and walked out.

After going out to the courtyard to take a look, the two came back to the house. Zhao Youcai asked Zhao Jun: "Isn't that the Dalong family's Mengxi Chuanzi? Why did you get it back?"

Wang Meilan pulled Zhao Jun over and said earnestly: "Son, did you pick it up? Relatives say that if you want to pick up someone else's dog, you have to give it back to them."

"I didn't pick it up, I bought it."

Zhao Jun pulled Wang Meilan to sit down and told his parents what happened after meeting Wang Dalong today.

After listening to what Zhao Jun said, Wang Meilan remained silent and said nothing.

Seeing my mother like this, Zhao Jun also felt dizzy.

He was just about to give some persuasion, but unexpectedly, Zhao Youcai on the side suddenly spoke.

"Lan, give your son fifty yuan."

"What?"

"What?"

Not only Wang Meilan was surprised, but also Zhao Jun.

Zhao Jun never expected that his father would step forward to support him at this time.

Wang Meilan also didn't expect it, and she looked at Zhao Youcai in disbelief.

Zhao Youcai said: "Now that your son's name has spread throughout the forest area, can you still stop him from going up the mountain? If you have a whole lot of dogs, he can work for him, and he can also use his strength."

At this point, seeing that Wang Meilan was still silent, Zhao Youcai said again: "Your son is so good at beating the black blind man. He will inevitably go out to play with the dog in the future. There are too many dogs, at least we can protect him."

When Zhao Youcai said this, Wang Meilan's expression changed.

She had been married to the Zhao family for many years, and her ears were numb from the hunting stories she heard. She knew that the black blind man would knock him down when he wanted to, and he would lie down wherever he went, waiting for someone to pass by. It breaks out and hurts people again.

Just like that day, Xing Zhiyong and Li San were chasing a black bear with guns on their backs. The black bear suddenly jumped out from behind a fallen tree and almost killed them.

But if you have a dog that recognizes bears, this will never happen.

Moreover, when a dog is surrounded by danger, the dog will usually protect its owner and will not hesitate to sacrifice its life for this purpose.

Wang Meilan had previously opposed Zhao Jun's hunting, not because of anything else but because she was worried about his safety.

As the saying goes: If the earthen pot is not broken outside the well, the general will inevitably die in battle.

After all, hunting is dangerous. Who can guarantee that nothing will happen to him?

Over the years, many famous gunners have lost their lives in the mountains and forests.

Zhao Jun's marksmanship is good, but how does it compare to Zhou Chengguo?

Wang Meilan also knows that black bears are brave and lynx skins are valuable, but this is not the time when Zhao Jun and his grandfather hunted. At that time, the elderly had to rely on hunting to support their families.

But now, when I have a serious job and earn less, I am at least stable. Why would I go to the mountains to risk my life with black bears and wild boars?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Youcai stopped hunting after having a son and concentrated on working in the forest farm.

In Wang Meilan's heart, no matter how many black bear gallbladders there are, they are not as important as her own son.

In her opinion, although the family is not rich, they still have enough food and clothing.

Moreover, Zhao Jun will go to work in a forest farm after the new year. It is still a good job. Isn't it better than hunting with his head on his back?

Therefore, Wang Meilan has always opposed Zhao Jun's hunting in the mountains.

After the obstruction failed, Wang Meilan chose to confront Zhao Jun by not supporting him.

He holds the financial power, and if he doesn't pay, Zhao Jun will have no guns. Without a gun, maybe just for fun.

But what Wang Meilan didn't expect was that her son was not ordinary capable. Not only did he have a gun, he also had to recruit soldiers and dogs.

In fact, she was not short of the fifty yuan, but she still wanted to prevent Zhao Jun from developing the hunting business.

It's just that Zhao Youcai is right. It can't be stopped now. In this case, why not make Zhao Jun safer?

Thinking of this, Wang Meilan sighed softly, crossed her legs and got on the kang, opened the kang cabinet door, and took out a thick dozen of money from the bottom of an unoccupied flower mattress.

Under the scorching gazes of Zhao Youcai and Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan counted out fifty yuan and held it in her hand instead of handing it to Zhao Jun.

"Son." Wang Meilan looked at Zhao Jun and asked, "Do you have to give back the gun you have now in the future?"

"Yes." When Wang Meilan asked about the Type 56 semi-automatic, Zhao Jun said without thinking, "As soon as Brother Zhou is discharged from the hospital, I will send it back to him."

"Then mom, give your dad money and ask him to buy you another gun."
