Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

Chapter 92: Xiaonian enters the city



  Chapter 92 Xiaonian enters the city

   "In a few days it will be the new year, after the new year, the fourth child will marry a wife, our family has to kill pigs and hold banquets, there are still many things to be busy.

   You guys don’t want to go to the mountains for a while, but help out at home and take care of the fourth child’s marriage, okay? "

  Zhou Guilan knew that when her son was older, he couldn't force it. Beating and scolding were useless, and he could only push him further away.

  So Zhou Guilan adopted a soft policy and softened her tone, showing concern and pleading in every word.

  Xu Shiyan's original plan was to hunt as many prey as possible and save more money while he was still in the big house.

  The place here is remote and the population is small, and there are many prey on the mountain, and he has a gun and a dog in his hand.

   After moving out after a few years, the gun and dog have to be returned to the brigade, so there are no such convenient conditions.

  Donggang is densely populated and there are few wild animals, so there is no chance to hunt again.

   But what my mother said made sense. The brothers have been tossing a lot these days, and many people in the village are jealous.

  In a village, there are not only good people, but also bad people.

  Although Xu Shiyan is not afraid of those people making troubles behind their backs, he still has to worry about his parents, and he can't make the old man worry too much.

  My mother loves her son so much, how can Xu Shiyan ignore it? I had no choice but to agree.

   "Mom, we know, we will all stay at home and help with the wedding."

   Fortunately, I have made a lot of things recently, and there are just a few of them.

  Plus all kinds of skins and so on, the money brother sold five cents, probably hundreds of cents for each family.

   Okay, people are contented, too greedy and prone to accidents, so stop and rest.

  Xu Chenghou scolded, Zhou Guilan coaxed.

  The couple sang the good face and the bad face, and finally persuaded the sons who were hunting these days.

  Brothers Xu Shiyan agreed, except for those clips, I have to go and see it in a few days, and I will definitely not go hunting in the mountains again.

  The old couple was relieved, and the family returned to the warmth and harmony of the past.

  In this year and month, it is said that it is a wedding, but in fact there is not much to do.

  Nowadays, there is no saying that people who get married must buy a house. There are many houses in the family, and one of them is cleaned up to make a new house.

  Those with three rooms like Xu’s house, all facing the kangs in the house, cleaned up the east room and the north kang for the young couple.

   If the family’s conditions are difficult, and the whole family sleeps on a kang, they also have to get married.

  Xu Chenghou knew carpentry, and Xu Shixian and Xu Shian also learned a little bit, so there is no need to find a carpenter to make furniture.

  The furniture of this year has only those styles, and there is nothing difficult. The old man has started to work since the beginning of winter, and has already finished the furniture.

   Don't worry about the bedding, Zhou Guilan prepared cotton and cloth early on, and the quilt was brought back from Tonghua by Xu Shiyan.

   There are not many two bunks and two covers. Zhou Guilan led her daughter and daughter-in-law, and they made them a long time ago and put them on the kangqin.

  Finally, there is only the banquet on the wedding day to be busy.

   This is also easy. The Xu family raised two fat pigs and killed one on the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month.

  Combined with the fact that Xu Shiyan sent back so much meat before, and the meat that he went up the mountain recently, wouldn’t it be easy to hold a few banquets?

   What needs to be purchased, that is, candy, tobacco and alcohol at the banquet.

  So, on the day of Xiaonian, the Xu family brothers borrowed a horse sledge from the brigade, and took all kinds of skins, bear bile, etc. they had acquired a while ago, and went to the county seat.

  Dongjiang along the brigade leans against the first Songhua River, the river flows northward, meets Tanghe River at the mouth of Tanghe River, and then flows northward through the west of the county seat.

  So, from the Dongjiang River to the county seat, there was another way in the summer before, to release emissions.

  The wood is bundled together to make a wooden raft, which can reach the county seat by flowing down the water.

  In the past, some people went to the county town to sell firewood, most of them did this way, and several people could sit on the wooden raft.

  This method has a certain degree of danger. With the construction of the road, no one will discharge it gradually.

  It will be easier in winter, just use a horse sledge to pull people, and run north along the frozen river.

  In winter, the ice on the big river is more than one meter thick, let alone people leaving, driving is no problem.

  From the big house to the north along the river, the horse sledge ran fast, and it took two and a half hours to arrive at the place.

   This is faster than walking to Songjianghe, and then taking a car from Songjianghe to the county seat, and the time is free.

  The horse sledge stopped under the bridge in the west of the county seat. The embankment was too steep for the sledge to climb up, so Xu Shixian was left to watch the sledge.

  Others went up along the embankment and went straight to the purchase station.

  The New Year is approaching, and many hunters in villages are thinking of selling the mountain goods in their hands to buy new year goods for money, so there are many people in the buying station.

  Xu Shiyan and the others lined up for a while before it was their turn, so they quickly took out all the hides they had hunted for a while, as well as three bear gall bladders.

   Of the three bear galls, one was snatched from under the tiger's mouth, and the other was killed by a few brothers who killed black and blind people.

   There is another one, who met Yang Chunming and others into the mountain.

  Everything else is easy to talk about. The one I got together with Yang Chunming and the others has to be recorded separately, and it will be distributed to everyone after returning home.

  Three bear gallbladders, two copper and one grass, especially the brown bear one, big copper gall, one can cover two.

  Just these three guts were sold for 2,000 yuan, and other squirrel skins, badger skins, otter skins, and sable skins were sold for another 500 yuan.

   It sold for 2,600 yuan at once, and the brothers were very happy, while the others in the room were all envious and envious.

  Xu Shiyan took the money and gave the three brothers one hundred yuan each.

   This is not a dividend, but let them buy things.

   "Second brother, you are going to buy candy, cigarettes and wine with fourth brother, and fifth brother, aren't you going to the bookstore to buy review materials? Hurry up.

  I took the money and hurried to find my eldest brother. We are waiting for you under the bridge. Come back quickly after finishing the work, we have to go home quickly. "

  With so much money, Xu Shiyan didn't dare to walk carelessly.

   You must know that at this time, there are huge crowds of people in the county town to buy new year's goods, what if something goes wrong?

  Xu Shiyan had a knife on his body, and two guns on the horse sledge.

  So after Xu Shiyan gave his brothers the money for the purchase, he hurried out of the purchase station and went straight to meet Xu Shixian under the bridge.

  Xu Shiyan hurriedly walked towards the Xijiang River in the county seat, but he didn't notice that as soon as he left the purchase station, someone followed behind him.

   Several people followed Xu Shiyan to the riverside, and saw Xu Shiyan meeting and talking with a person on the river.

  One of them hid in a hiding place and continued to stare, while the others were sent back to report and call for help.

   "Hurry up and report to Brother Sheng Cao and the others, saying that the kid came to the county again last time.

  Bring more money this time, they are just the two of them, let Brother Sheng and Brother Cao bring more people, remember to bring some guys. "

   Not long after, I saw a group of people running over in a hurry, and the leader was the one Xu Shiyan met last time.

  There is another person next to him, not too tall, with a bit of sternness in his brows and eyes, and a bulging waist, as if he is carrying some belongings.

   "Where is it? Damn, I let him run away last time, this time I have to kill him." The leader asked.

   "It's just under the bridge." Someone pointed to the river.
