The next afternoon, an unexpected guest came to the house.

Zhou Heng and his son went to the town again, and they had already made a trip yesterday to contract the lake business. But I didn't bring all the things, and I have to go today.

Anyway, that's the way it is, I only know when I go, you have to bring this, bring that, and you can't do it if it's insufficient.

In addition, you have to go through the business license for raising chickens.

This thing is still a bit troublesome, you have to go to the industrial and commercial department to fill out the form, get a notice, and apply for an animal epidemic prevention certificate to the Animal Husbandry Bureau.

This can't be done on the same day, and you have to make an appointment with someone, and then come to the door for quarantine, and only after passing will the certificate be issued. With this certificate, go to the industrial and commercial department to complete the follow-up of the license.

It's protracted, you have to take it one step at a time.

Busy and busy, busy until the end of the afternoon, and then drove the electric tricycle back.

Along the way, Zhou Heng was afraid that his father would be upside down, so he deliberately drove slowly.

When I was about to reach the entrance of the village, I saw a person driving a motorcycle, driving slowly, as if looking for a way.

Zhou Heng saw the figure of that person, recognized it, and shouted: "Hu Jinhua." ”

Sure enough, it was him.

It's the same classmate I met when I went to town last time to buy fertilizer. This guy had a bad fate, he was imprisoned at a young age, and he was only released now.

Last time, Zhou Heng also brought a chicken to his old mother, and then received a text message from him.

At that time, Zhou Heng told him that everyone could make an appointment to have a meal when they had time, but there was no appointment at that time.

Unexpectedly, he actually found the village today.

Hu Jinhua used to come to his house, but it was still when he was in school, and it was almost ten years since now, where do I still remember Qingxiaolu.

Hu Jinhua turned his head and saw Zhou Heng's father and son, so he stopped the motorcycle, pointed to the ground with one foot, and said hello to them.

He came to see Zhou Heng's family on purpose.

He works at the town's fertilizer shop and only has half a day off a month. There wasn't much going on in the store today, so he took the leave.

He came with two bottles of wine and two cigarettes. This was all received by the family during the Chinese New Year.

Gifts are still exchanged.

Although it is not as good as the local chickens, eggs, and agricultural products that Zhou Heng brought when he went to his house, it is better than empty-handed.

He finally overcame the sense of closure in his heart and walked out today.

Zhou Heng said: "You can come, bring something." Let's go, and my house will go in from here. ”

When he got home, Zhou Heng pulled Hu Jinhua into the courtyard and said, "It's still not the same here, right?"

Hu Jinhua looked around a few times and said, "It seems that there are more fruit trees than before, and there was no such pigsty before." ”

Zhou Heng laughed and said: "You have a good memory, this pigsty was built last year, and I didn't make any money raising pigs, and I raised chickens this year." ”

After a simple greeting, the sense of alienation between the two people has become much closer.

Zhou Faqiang didn't say much, but he didn't dislike Hu Jinhua, and soon went to the tree to pick a few peaches, washed them and brought them over for him to taste.

He also opened his mouth rarely, and said: "Don't think about the past things." Kid, you're still young, and you'll have plenty of opportunities in the future!"

When Zhou Heng went to his house that day, he saw the situation at his house and came back to tell his parents. Therefore, in fact, Zhou Faqiang is quite sympathetic to that family.

The child is young and has no future, which is more bitter than anything else.

Parents have been busy all their lives, not for their children, but the fate of their children is not good, what hope do parents have?

Others may be disgusted with a child who has been in prison, but he knows the details of this child, so he is mostly sympathetic and has no dislike.

To tell the truth, Hu Jinhua is as old as Zhou Heng, isn't he still young! There is still a good chance to struggle.

After a brief chat, Zhou Faqiang carried the hoe on his back and went to the field to prepare to hoe the grass. Young people like to have their elders in front of them.

Zhou Heng didn't sit stupidly, he found two fishing rods at home and said, "Let's go, let's go fishing." ”

This is what he bought when he was in college, he came home from summer vacation and was bored, and he didn't use it a few times later, so he stayed at home.

Walking out of the courtyard gate, the big yellow dog followed diligently, wagging its tail and wagging it, extremely cheerful.

It's windy today, and although the sun is still very strong, it's very cool and comfortable to walk in the shade of the trees.

The green crops in the distance were blown by the wind and swayed with the wind.

Hu Jinhua said: "I used to think that your scenery here is good, after so many years, it seems that nothing has changed, and it is still so good." ”

Walking through such a countryside, it is as if all the worldly troubles in my heart have drifted to the back of my mind.

Turning a corner from the front of the house, it is the road to the back mountain.

Zhou Heng pointed out to Hu Jinhua that behind him was half of the mountain contracted by his family, and the chickens raised on it had been sold, and he was preparing to renew thousands of chicken seedlings.

Hu Jinhua suddenly asked, "How many thousand? Then your parents are busy? Are you planning to be at home?"

This guy can see the point of the problem at a glance, and it seems that his reaction is still so sensitive.

Although his fate is not good, his own ability is still there.

Zhou Heng smiled: "Yes, just stay at home and do it." In fact, when I went to work outside, the money I earned was also spent outside, and I was busy every day, and I didn't know what I had gained. It doesn't matter if you go home to do it, at least you take care of your family. ”

He said the reason why he came back at that time, and that the family really needed young people at home.

Hu Jinhua naturally understands this point.

Over the years, his wife has almost cried blind for him, and all the valuable things in the family have been spent on him, and no one knows this taste better than him.

Therefore, after he came back, he did not think about going to the big city outside, but stayed at home.

But staying at home is not so easy, even if you find such a job, you can't support your family at all, and you need to look at so many faces.

If you are like Zhou Heng, you can have a breeding thing to do, it is very good.

Start your own business, do it yourself, don't need to look at other people's eyes, anyway, if you earn more, you will spend more, and if you earn less, you will spend less, and you will be free.

This is actually the life he dreamed of.

It's a pity that he has a town hukou, how can he have a field at home, so that he can live the life of his dreams?

He sighed: "It's really good to go home and develop." ”

The two of them took fishing rods, but they didn't rush to find a pond, but went to the mountain of Zhou Heng's house to take a look.

In the past, they also went up to the mountains together to play and made wild fruits to eat.

In a flash, so many years have passed.

Although it was still afternoon, the sun was still very strong, and the native chickens on the mountain were very smart, and they all hid under the shade of the trees, some of them rested on their stomachs, and some of them were still turning over insects in the grass and fluttering.

Under the sun, the feathers of the chickens are even more colorful, as if they are shining.

Hu Jinhua looked at these chickens, which were delivered to his house that day, and he knew that this chicken was extraordinary and must be very expensive.

The big yellow dog walked behind them, probably thinking that they were walking too slowly and a little impatiently.

Seeing the chickens resting on the mountain, this guy became playful and rushed left and right in the middle of the flock.

The flock of chickens was originally a small flock under a tree, and the big yellow dog rushed back and forth, seven in and seven out, heroic and unparalleled, and suddenly caused a commotion, flapping its wings and fleeing for its life, "clucking" and screaming.

A veritable chicken flying dog jump!

Zhou Heng smiled helplessly, this guy is really called idle! You have nothing to do and play by yourself, what are you doing to provoke chickens?

In fact, the big rooster in the lead is also very wild, and he is very fierce when he fights.

If this guy really messes with the big, it's not a joke. Chickens fight and peck at vulnerable places such as eyes and noses.

It's really idle, looking for something to do.

Suddenly, seeing that there seemed to be a small thing moving in the distance, Zhou Hengda shouted in a hurry: "Dog, go and chase it!"

In fact, before he could speak, the big yellow dog had already chased him out.

Dogs burst much faster than people.

This is how it chased a hare last time, but today I don't know what is moving there, it is too far away, and there is grass to cover it, so I can't see it clearly.

Zhou Heng also ran over, wanting to see what it was.

After running for more than a dozen steps, the big yellow dog had returned triumphantly with a fat thing in his mouth.

The guy was still "squeaking", and his fat legs were still pulling, trying to escape. It's a mountain mouse.

Mountain mice are different from the kind of mice on the beams at home, these are grown up eating tree roots, or fruits falling from trees, or mushrooms and bamboo shoots on the ground, and they can be eaten.

Look at the head, it's not small, it's quite fat.

Mountain rats are the scourge of the mountains, making holes in the mountains, harming one party, and the reproductive power is large, don't be polite if you catch one, this is the protection of the mountains.

Zhou Heng patted the head of the big yellow dog and said happily: "Little man, you are quite powerful, you can catch it! Take it back and roast it, and share one leg of your food!"

Then he said to Hu Jinhua: "Let's go, let's go back first, peel this thing, marinate the seasoning first, and then bake it for dinner." ”

Anyway, it's close to home, and I just walked out of it.

Hu Jinhua is also very staggered, the dog is really not playing with the mouse, he can really catch it, and the speed is so fast.

There are also people in the town who sell mountain rats to restaurants, but the price is very expensive, I heard that it is more than eighty pounds, and only the local tyrants can afford to eat.

But ah, people who live in mountain villages can eat at any time, without cost, and are guaranteed to be real mountain mice.

In fact, if you have a source of income, living in the mountains is not bad at all.

Hu Jinhua asked, "Are there many such mountain rats in the mountains?"

Zhou Heng said: "I don't know, when I have time, go to a few cages, then I will know." ”

That half of the mountain was contracted by his family, and it should be cleaned up.

The old people say that the meat of the mountain rat is very nutritious, and the taste is very good, the meat is crispy and tough, the bite is strong, and the aftertaste is endless.

While talking, they had already walked back, Zhou Heng went to kill the mountain rats, peel the skin, and then cleaned it and marinated it with a little salt and condiments to taste it.

When my mother comes back to cook later, I'll get it by the way.

It's a pity that there's only one, less is less, hehe.
