Chapter 65: Winter Hunting

Winter hunting is not a traditional activity in Shimizu Village. It's just that the grain harvested by the villagers every year is limited, and after excluding taxes, the remaining grain cannot support the harvest next autumn. Usually, people can still work or make some money through other means, but in the winter, these incomes are almost gone.

Therefore, every winter, Qingshui Village organizes all the capable men in the village to carry out a collective hunt. Through this hunt, each family gets some meat. If you catch a big game, everyone can also get some money, which is enough to support the family through the winter.

Qingshui Village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is a good place for hunting, and everyone can harvest a lot of good things every year. Although there are several hunters in the village, the group hunt will go deeper into the forest, so that the harvest will be more. After all, there are so many people, if there is only a star and a half, it is not enough.

But with harvest comes danger. The deeper you go into the forest, the more likely you are to encounter some predators. Although everyone acts in groups and nothing happens, danger is everywhere. For example, Li Jinshu's father, Li Yunchang, accidentally fell off a cliff during a winter hunt a few years ago, so he died unexpectedly. Therefore, Li Jinshu was resistant to the winter hunt in his heart.

Seeing that Zhao replied that she should participate, she immediately walked out of the back room and said with a serious face: "No, I don't agree!" You are not allowed to go! ”

Zhou Yongqiang was about to leave here, but he didn't expect Li Jinshu to suddenly say this, so he was stunned on the spot. Ye Shi spoke in time to resolve the embarrassment: "You kid, talk well." If your brother wants to go, let him go, it's rare that he has something he wants to do. ”

"No way!" Li Jinshu didn't mean to discuss at all, "He's still a child, how can he do such a dangerous thing?" What's more, judging from the situation of their family this year, there is actually no need to participate at all. Of course, Li Jinshu did not say the second half of the sentence.

There was no way, seeing his daughter's attitude, Ye could only turn his head to look at Zhao Hui and ask for his opinion. I thought that if Li Jinshu disagreed, Zhao Hui would give up the idea of participating, after all, he usually listened to Jinshu's words the most.

However, what Ye didn't expect was that this time Zhao Hui actually opened his mouth and insisted: "I must go!" ”

It was rare for him to raise his head and look directly into Li Jinshu's eyes, and the firmness in his gaze couldn't help but be moved. Jin Shu's heart was a little loose, but other than that, she was more angry.

"Okay! If you want to go, go for it! I don't care if something happens! There was a clear anger in her tone. After saying this, Jin Shu quickly entered the back room, took out the clothes he had just changed, and planned to go to the river to wash his clothes.

When she came out, Zhou Yongqiang had already left the house. Zhao Hui was still sitting there and didn't move, and Li Jinshu didn't speak, but glared at him fiercely and went out with his clothes.

Since the day Zhou Yongqiang came to the door, Li Jinshu has never said a word to Zhao Hui. Of course, there is naturally a lot of gambling in this. It's just that Zhao Hui is a stuffy gourd again, although he wants to reconcile with Li Jinshu, but he doesn't know what to say. There has been a stalemate between the two.

Since then, the topic of winter hunting has not been mentioned again. It wasn't until three days later that everything was arranged, and everyone who was going to participate in the winter hunt was notified to gather at the head of the village.

This can be regarded as an annual event in Qingshui Village, so on this day, the men, women and children in the village all gathered at the head of the village. Ye also went, and on the way, she didn't forget to tell Zhao Hui to pay attention to safety. Only Li Jinshu was still angry, so he never appeared.
