Chapter 52: Hunting in the Mountains
Yang Qingyan saw Sun Yuanle responding, immediately turned around and went back to the yard, said hello to Zhang Yueniang, and carried a small basket and a small hoe out of the yard.
After Sun Yuan, who was at the gate of the courtyard, was excited, his mood instantly became tense again.
As soon as Yang Qingyan came out, he saw him pacing back and forth at the door, and thought that he was too slow and made the family wait too anxiously.
"Brother Sun, I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting! Let's go! ”
"Hey! Okay, I'll get you the basket and hoe. ”
As he spoke, the small hoe in Yang Qingyan's hand had been snatched by Sun Yuan.
"Even if you carry the basket, it's not sinking, and when Brother Sun sees the prey, he can react quickly and pull the bow, it's inconvenient to take too many things."
Seeing that Yang Qingyan was insisting, Sun Yuan was not good at forcing it, so he smiled honestly, and the two of them went to the road on the mountain behind the house.
Lin Shen, who was upset by the quarrel between the two women outside the door early in the morning, opened the door and saw Yang Qingyan and a man talking and laughing towards the mountain.
The two walked side by side, and from time to time Yang Qingyan would let out a hearty laugh, and the man commented on the woman beside him with a gentle face, and reminded the woman from time to time to be careful of the stones under her feet.
That warm scene made Lin Shen's face sink even more!
Isn't he really not even a country man? Yang Qingyan, are you blind?
And Xia Qiu and another girl at Lin Shen's door, the moment they saw Lin Shen open the door, the quarrel also stopped abruptly, sorting out the clothes, stroking the hair, and instantly became a quiet woman.
"Brother Lin is early, it just so happens that my family's vegetable garden is not far from your house, I'll pick some cabbage, if Brother Lin doesn't dislike it, this basket of cabbage will be given to Brother Lin."
Xia Qiu carried a basket of cabbage, squeezed another woman behind her, stepped forward with a shy face, and said delicately in front of Lin Shen.
Lin Shen heard the sound of chattering beside him, he was not in a good mood, and Junyan instantly sank.
Looking back, it turned out to be the woman Yang Qingyan had thrown into the dung pit, and the depression in her heart was even thicker.
Just as he was about to get angry, another woman next to him squeezed in again.
"Brother Lin, this is the white flour steamed bun I got up early in the morning, it's still hot, Brother Lin must have not had breakfast yet, if Brother Lin doesn't dislike it......"
Who knows, before the girl finished speaking, a pair of big hands like white jade took over the man in her hand.
"Lin has thanked Miss Fang'er for her kindness, but you don't have to be so polite in the future, Lin still has something to do, so I won't delay the two girls."
After the words fell, Lin Shen carried the basket and entered the courtyard and closed the gate.
Yang Fangfang saw that her white-faced steamed bun Lin Shen accepted it, and the beauty in her heart!
turned around, glanced at Xia Qiu, who was unconvinced, looked at the cabbage in her hand again, and snorted coldly!
"I don't know this at all, and I dare to come to Brother Lin's door to show my courtesy! Brother Lin must have known that you had fallen into the dung pit before, so he refused to eat your things! Hum! ”
When the words fell, Yang Fangfang twisted her small waist and was able to leave with joy!
Is that so? Isn't it true that Brother Lin dislikes himself because of that incident?
Xia Qiu, who was hit and had no skin, felt a grievance in his heart!
She can't beat Yang Qingyan, just last time she was so spicy, she and her mother are not the opponents of that slut, this breath is not out, and I can't block it for a lifetime?
Lin Shen heard that the two people outside the courtyard had already left, cleaned up, and went out.
In the mountains, Yang Qingyan is not the first time to come. It's just that the place where Sun Yuan took Yang Qingyan today was a direction she hadn't been to, so Yang Qingyan also found a lot of wild vegetables and mushrooms.
In a few moments, her little basket was half full.
"Brother Sun, why didn't you see any prey after walking for a long time? Is it the same when you hunt on weekdays? ”
Sun Yuan is now alone with Yang Qingyan, and he is still excited in his heart, and when he speaks, it is as if his tongue is knotted.
"Yes, yes. Hunting is not always so lucky, and sometimes I go home empty-handed. ”
"Huh? Isn't that sometimes a day in vain? ”
Yang Qingyan naturally doesn't understand the suffering of these hunters, so not everyone is willing to rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and these countrymen still pay the most attention to their own fields.
It's just that Sun Yuan's family has little land, and after paying taxes every year, he can only barely eat.
And my grandparents are old, and their health is not very good, and they will see a doctor and take medicine from time to time, which all cost money. Therefore, on weekdays, he would come to hunt and send the game to the market to sell, and if he could not sell it, he would make it into bacon or eat it himself.
Even after three or four years of hunting, their family didn't save any money.
"Bad luck, sometimes you get lost in the mountains, you can't get out for a few days and nights, and sometimes you encounter fierce beasts, and you will be injured, there is a hunter in the next village, who was bitten to death by a group of wild boars in the mountains last year, and when the people in their village found him, they were already miserable and there were no more pieces of meat on his body."
Speaking of hunting, Sun Yuan suddenly stopped being nervous, and his words with Yang Qingyan began to increase.
Yang Qingyan was also able to listen energetically, and admired the young man in front of him even more. But it was more of the bitterness and helplessness that Sun Yuan's mouth felt.
"Actually, Brother Sun, you are still so young, you don't necessarily take the road of hunting, you can do a small business or something, and it is not difficult to support a family."
Sun Yuan listened to Yang Qingyan's words, but only smiled bitterly.
"I went to school for two years, and my father was gone, so I didn't have any skills, and I didn't have the ability to do business."
Indeed, in this era, agriculture, industry and commerce, and businessmen are the last and least statused. But it's not easy to be a businessman.
Otherwise, those rural peasants who can't have enough to eat, just one person, will also go into business.
"Hey, I have a note, it's better for me to make a kind of food, you can also take it to the town to sell, now my family is living on this, at least eat as much as you want."
Hearing Yang Qingyan give himself such an idea, Sun Yuan immediately refused.
If Yang Qingyan's food can buy money, it is also someone else's formula, how can he be cheeky to take advantage of her.
"I can't help it, I can't agree to this, if Sister Yan'er has a recipe for eating, it's better to keep it for herself, don't be so kind to give it to people casually in the future, this is a big deal."
I was thinking that after two more years of hunting, I could buy another one or two acres of paddy fields with the silver I saved, and life would be much better at that time. ”
Yang Qingyan didn't expect Sun Yuan to be so sincere, such a good thing, he refused to give him him, and asked him not to be so generous to people in the future, but Yang Qingyan couldn't help but feel more and more good about Sun Yuan.
"Brother Sun doesn't accept my kindness, so would you do me a favor?"
Hearing that Yang Qingyan needed his own help, Sun Yuan was naturally duty-bound, and he was full of joy to respond.
"Sister Yan'er and I don't have to be polite, you and I grew up together, if there is something, let me know, what else do you want to talk about helping or not? It's really out of sight. ”
"Then I'm welcome, that's the case, my family plans to build a house, and I still need some people to help, do you think you have time?"
"Build a house? But when your family separated, ......"
Obviously, Sun Yuan was worried that Yang Qingyan's family would not have enough money to build a house, after all, the matter of their separation, everyone in the entire Yang family village had long been aware of it.
But Yang Qingyan didn't understand when he saw him spitting and spitting.
"Huh? What's wrong? ”
"That, Sister Yan'er, you have enough money to build a house, if it's not enough, I saved five taels of silver, why don't you take it first."
Seeing that Sun Yuan was referring to this, Yang Qingyan immediately smiled.
It's just that I value Sun Yuan's honest and honest buddy a little more in my heart, and I feel that this person is also a person worth coming and going with in the future. After all, people don't say a word, and even their families are willing to lend them unconditionally.
"Thank you, Brother Sun, our family has made some small livelihoods these days, and the money to build a house is enough."
"That's good, when the work starts, I'll bring a few more people over to help your family."
"Good!"
Yang Qingyan responded with a smile.
While talking, the two walked towards the mountain, and before they knew it, they had been in the mountain for almost an hour.
Sun Yuan'er was also lucky today, and later he also shot two pheasants and a hare, Yang Qingyan saw that his archery skills were quite accurate, and said that he would learn from him if he had the opportunity in the future.
Of course, Sun Yuan couldn't ask for it, so he immediately responded happily.
Later, Sun Yuan hunted a hare again, and Yang Qingyan's back basket was already full, and the most unexpected thing was that she found a bush full of fungus.
What's even more amazing is that Sun Yuan didn't know what it was. Seeing Yang Qingyan picking vigorously, he hurriedly stopped him.
Then he knew that it was a kind of food, so he helped Yang Qingyan pick it together.
It wasn't until the basket could no longer fit that they made an appointment to come back in the afternoon.
But before the two of them got out of the bushes, Sun Yuan noticed that something was wrong. The whole person also began to get nervous, and hurriedly protected Yang Qingyan behind him, and even the prey in his hand was thrown on the ground, planning to take Yang Qingyan to hide at any time.
When Yang Qingyan saw Sun Yuan's nervous face, he knew that they had met a big guy today! I don't dare to relax in my heart, and I am ready to run for my life at any time!
"Sister Yan'er, it seems to be a wild boar, this beast is fierce, it's really not good, I'll lure it away later, you just run down the mountain."
How could Yang Qingyan be so unrighteous, and immediately shook his head and disagreed.
"How can this be, you said that wild boars are very fierce, how can I escape alone! Let's climb the tree first. ”
When Sun Yuan heard this, he immediately reacted!
Yes, the boar is fierce, but it's stupid, and it doesn't have any brains! As long as they climbed the tree, and he hid in the tree and fired arrows, then he would be able to save the day from danger.
