The whole mountain is my hunting ground

Zuo, when this word is pronounced as zuō, in Northeastern dialect, it means: able to do well, but prefer not to be good.

For example, children who are naughty and make trouble are called disasters.

For example, someone like Zhang Yuanmin who has a clever plan on the left and a cunning plan on the right is called death.

No, it should be called the Great Death.

At Zhang Yuanmin's house, Zhao Jun stared at him dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

At this time, Yang Yufeng came in with a white porcelain jar, placed it in front of Zhao Jun, and said with a smile: "Brother, drink some hot water to keep yourself warm."

Zhao Jun took the jar and was about to say thank you when he saw Yang Yufeng pointing at Zhang Yuanmin and saying, "You should stop talking about useless things for a day. After three days, you have forgotten how Xiong Ba dealt with you?"

When Yang Yufeng mentioned the past, Zhang Yuanmin instantly remembered the horror of being chased by Xiong Ba. He seemed a little scared and couldn't help but shrink his neck slightly.

But when his eyes fell on the cover of the mini-book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" on the kang table, looking at the fierce general who was riding a horse and wielding a sword, Zhang Yuanmin felt confident for some reason. He raised his head and said to Yang Yufeng : "The gentlemen are chatting, and this old woman is just going to get involved in everything. You go quickly and cook for your brothers."

In the Northeast, women really hold up half the sky. But when outsiders are around, they usually save face for their masters.

After being criticized by Zhang Yuanmin, Yang Yufeng thought that Zhao Jun was still there and could not make Zhao Jun feel uncomfortable, so she rolled her eyes at him, then turned to Zhao Jun and said, "Brother, don't leave today. Eat at home tonight." Then, she would go to the outhouse to cook.

"Sister-in-law." Zhao Jun hurriedly stopped Yang Yufeng and said, "Stop working. I'm here today because I have something to do. I want to talk to you and my elder brother. I will leave after I finish talking."

"Brother, look at you, you are always in a hurry to leave every time you come." Yang Yufeng said: "You say the words; you also have to eat the food. Brother, what you want to say, say it now. After you have finished speaking, my sister-in-law will cook for you. go."

Seeing the kindness, Zhao Jun could only nod his head, and then turned to Zhang Yuanmin. After all, he was the head of the family.

Zhao Jun looked at Zhang Yuanmin and asked, "Brother, I'll find a job for you in Lengchang, can you do it?"

"What kind of job are you doing?" Zhang Yuanmin's eyes lit up when he heard this. Just like what the couple told Zhao Jun last time, his family has a certain amount of land, and the busy time is fixed every year.

After finishing all the farm work, I spent the rest of the year just doing nothing except picking some mountain products.

The work in Lengchang usually takes place in winter and early spring, which happens to miss the busy farming season. If you can really find a job on the farm, you can earn some money to support your family during the slack time.

Zhao Jun said: "I have been in Lengchang for the past two days and I know a trap puller. It happens that no one is working with him. Moreover, the wood in his trumpet is good and easy to cut. The mountainous area is also very good, the slope is not slippery and the road is easy to walk. .

I just want you to set up a chain saw, go up the mountain, you plant trees, and he will be your assistant. After knocking down the tree, you two cut branches. Before going down the mountain, he drives the sledge and you give him a hand. What do you think? "

After listening to Zhao Jun's words, Zhang Yuanmin raised his head and looked at Yang Yufeng. Yang Yufeng nodded hurriedly to Zhang Yuanmin. She believed in Zhao Jun's character and believed that what Zhao Jun said could not be wrong.

And Zhao Jun said that the conditions are really good. Planting trees and cutting branches together, as long as you work hard and get paid on a piece-rate basis, you can earn a lot of money in one winter.

But Zhang Yuanmin looked troubled, scratched his head and said: "Brother, this... this, how can I tell you?"

Zhao Jun looked at Zhang Yuanmin, then turned to look at Yang Yufeng. When he turned back, he said to Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother, you don't need to say anything, brothers all understand.

Let me tell you this, the bear bile the three of us killed that time could have been sold for a thousand to several hundred dollars. Three-one-thirty-one, you can still get four or five hundred yuan. Tomorrow, brother will send you two hundred yuan first, and I will give you the rest after selling the bear bile. "

Yang Yufeng was beside Zhao Jun. Hearing his words, she felt extremely grateful. She knew in her heart that Zhao Jun was talking about the bear bile to save face for the couple. In fact, this money was lent to them by Zhao Jun.

But Zhao Jun has not yet married, and he does not know how to handle money at home, so he must go to the housekeeper to get the money.

Who can not be moved by such benevolence and righteousness?

Zhang Yuanmin was also moved, stood up and grabbed Zhao Jun's hand.

At this time, Yang Yufeng nodded towards Zhang Yuanmin, meaning thank you brother quickly.

Zhang Yuanmin really lived up to the high expectations and praised him when he opened his mouth, but all he heard was: "Brother, you are more benevolent and righteous than Mr. Guan!"

As soon as he said these words, the smile on Yang Yufeng's face instantly solidified and disappeared. She walked up to Zhang Yuanmin in two steps, raised her hand and slapped him on the shoulder.

Hearing a "pop" sound, Zhang Yuanmin turned around and said angrily: "What are you going to do, bitch?"

"What are you doing?" Yang Yufeng was also angry, pointed at Zhang Yuanmin's nose and shouted: "What are you talking about to the two brothers? The second master Guan has come out, please stop talking about useless things.

After training Zhang Yuanmin, Yang Yufeng said to Zhao Jun: "Brother, you have saved your eldest brother several times. We all regard you as our brother. Don't laugh at us."

Indeed, it is a bit unjustifiable to hit one's own man in front of others. But what Zhang Yuanmin said was too ridiculous. Yang Yufeng was afraid that Zhao Jun would think that her family were all white-eyed wolves.

Zhao Jun smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, it's okay. We are all on our own, and I get along well with my eldest brother, so I'm thinking of finding a job for him to do while he's idle, so as to save him." He always goes into the woods and pokes at the black blind man. Sister-in-law, your family used to hunt, and you know that the black blind man is not something you can just take care of."

"It's not good." Yang Yufeng originally opposed Zhang Yuanmin's killing of Heixiaizicang, but now that someone was speaking for her, she suddenly became energetic.

Moreover, today we all took action in front of Zhao Jun, so we didn’t care about anything else. So, Yang Yufeng pointed at Zhang Yuanmin and said: "Listen carefully to what brother said. Don't think about Qi'er and Ba'er every day, and say that you are the little Zhuge of Yong'an Tun. Tell me about you, you killed the blind man three times Cang, when was the killing successful? If my brother had not saved you, you would have died several times."

"Go to the other side." Zhang Yuanmin became angry and pointed at Yang Yufeng again: "What time is it? Hurry up and cook for your brother."

Zhang Yuanmin's anger was just a cover to find a way for himself. It happened that Yang Yufeng had finished what she wanted to say, so she gave him the steps, turned around and left.

"I've been working day by day, but I still can't cure you?" Seeing Yang Yufeng leave, Zhang Yuanmin suddenly became angry and muttered in a low voice, but Zhao Jun could definitely hear it.

Zhao Jun was also helpless and glanced aside, meeting Xiao Lingdang's equally helpless gaze. The two looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Brother, don't listen to her nonsense." Zhang Yuanmin withdrew his gaze and smiled at Zhao Jun: "I am no longer Yongan's little Zhuge."

"Yeah." Zhao Jun advised: "Let's go to work hard."

But Zhang Yuanmin said: "I will learn from Wei Yan in the future."

"Wei Yan..." Zhao Jun didn't know who this person was or what to say, so he could only ask: "Brother, what does this person do?"

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Yuanmin suddenly became energetic. He stretched out his hand to break off his legs, crossed his legs on the Kang, and said to Zhao Jun: "This Wei Yan is really powerful. They went to fight Cao Cao and his grandson. Wei Yan and Zhuge Liang said, We want the troops to move out of Ziniu Valley. Once we succeed..."

At this point, Zhang Yuanmin suddenly froze, blinked, picked up the little book on the table, and quickly flipped through it until he reached a page, then stumbledly read the words on it to Zhao Jun: "Attack... …The capture of…Chang’an is just around the corner.”

As he spoke, Zhang Yuanmin held the book with his right hand and pointed at it with his left hand. He said to Zhao Jun: "Did you hear that? It's just around the corner."

"Ah!" Zhao Jun nodded blankly and said, "Well, it's just around the corner."

Seeing Zhao Jun's cooperation, Zhang Yuanmin smiled proudly, stretched out his hand to turn over the page, and held the corner of the book to fold it up so that he could find this page easily next time he was bragging to others.

But seeing his movements, the little bell that was doing homework stopped working instantly. The little girl jumped up, resting her upper body on the kang table, stretched out her arms, and forcefully took the little book from the hand of Zhang Yuanmin opposite. Seized it.

After grabbing the little book, Little Bell shouted: "I borrowed this from my classmates, you can't nest in it." As she said that, she used her little hands to open the folded page by Zhang Yuanmin, and then slowly smoothed it with her hands.

The atmosphere was a little awkward. Zhao Jun was busy exaggerating to help the people and said: "Brother, I just realized that you are very powerful. You know so many words."

"Hey, brother, you don't know..."

Zhang Yuanmin was about to brag, but was interrupted by the little bell. He only heard the little girl say: "Uncle, I taught him that. I didn't teach him a word. I thought he could recognize it, but he pronounced it wrong. Wei Yan wants his troops to leave Ziwu Valley, and what he is reading to you is Ziniu Valley."

This time, the atmosphere became even more awkward.

Zhao Jun has never read any books, so he doesn't know what kind of valley these two men are talking about, and he can't persuade them.

"You kid... just write your homework happily!" Zhang Yuanmin pointed at the little girl and feigned anger: "Every day, you don't do your homework well. Wherever the adults have something to do, you will be there."

"I..." Little Lingdang was at a loss for words, but these days, children like this don't dare to argue with adults. She just grabbed the school bag next to her and stuffed the little book into it, meaning I I won’t show it to you.

When Zhang Yuanmin saw this, he felt very uncomfortable and felt like he had lost the most important thing in his life.

But Zhao Jun was still there, so he could only say to Zhao Jun: "Brother, I have thought about it. Sometimes, if it is too safe, there will be accidents. It is better to just chirp."

"Brother, what are you going to do?" Zhao Jun asked tentatively.

Zhang Yuanmin said: "Brother, you have to believe me. You will come with me in two days. Brother, I, the weasel, will lift the door curtain and show you a small hand."

"Where are I following you?"

"Find a black blind warehouse!" Zhang Yuanmin held his head high, pursed his lips, and raised his thumb with one hand, and said to Zhao Jun: "Don't worry about Tiancangzi or Dicangzi. Brother has his own tricks, just watch it. .”

As soon as Zhang Yuanmin said this, before Zhao Jun could say anything, Yang Yufeng, who was cooking in the outer room, rushed in instantly.

Yang Yufeng held the red-hot stove hook in her hand, pointed it at Zhang Yuanmin, and shouted: "I'm telling you, big crotch, if you dare to stab the blind man again, don't come back to this house."

Pointing at the hook of the kotatsu, Zhang Yuanmin fell back instantly, leaning against the kang cabinet, not daring to say a word.

Yang Yufeng twisted her head again and shouted to Xiao Lingdang: "This girl, you too, don't come back to show him the whole book. Look, look, what did you see?"

The city gate caught fire, affecting the fish in the pond.

The little girl felt aggrieved. Although her voice was not as loud as Yang Yufeng's, she still said at the top of her lungs: "I'm doing this all for my dad. You say that my dad is always thinking about nonsense at home, so I don't care." When a classmate borrows a book, don’t you want him to read to relieve his boredom?"

When the child was anxious, she even learned what her mother said to her father. Then the little girl stood up and slapped the table, walked to the kang cabinet in two steps, and took away the three little human books stacked together under Zhang Yuanmin's nose. He stuffed it into his schoolbag and sat there, tears streaming down his face instantly.

"You child..." The child's tears instantly extinguished the anger in Yang Yufeng's heart. She lowered her hand holding the stove hook and said to the little bell: "Stop crying, your uncle is still here."

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhao Jun quickly advised. He suddenly remembered something, so he took out a butter paper bag from his shoulder bag, opened it, and found another butter paper bag.

After two more layers, four large biscuits were revealed. Zhao Jun bought this in the morning. He originally wanted to keep it to deal with Du Chunjiang, but after eating Jiang Jinyou's dumplings at noon, this big biscuit was left.

"Daughter, don't cry. Let's see what delicious food my uncle brings you." Zhao Jun patiently coaxed the little girl.

He remembered that after he returned to the village in despair in his previous life, one day he missed his son and felt depressed, so he came to the river to fish alone.

Coincidentally, even after sitting all morning, I didn't catch a single fish.

Zhao Jun was also competing with himself. He didn't even go home to eat, and kept sitting by the river.

Just when Xiao Ling Dang passed by, he called out "Uncle Zhao" and said he was back to see Yang Yufeng, so he bought a few kilograms of shortbread, and then insisted on giving Zhao Jun a pocket of shortbread.

Zhao Jun couldn't refuse, so he sat down by the river with shortcakes and started eating. After eating two shortcakes, his mood suddenly improved, and then he caught three crucian carp seeds with a pole.

…

Seeing that Zhao Jun had coaxed his daughter and his wife's anger subsided, Zhang Yuanmin sat up, looked at Little Lingdang and said, "This child has such a bad temper, it's up to your mother."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Zhao Jun, Yang Yufeng, and Xiao Lingdang looking at him with three pairs of eyes.

"Brother." Zhao Jun complained to him: "You have to listen to your sister-in-law. You said something happened to you in the mountains. What will your sister-in-law do? How do you fix the bell?"

"Yes, yes, I understand, brother." Zhang Yuanmin shook his head and said, "I listen to you, I won't stab the blind man again."

"Hey, that's right." Zhao Jun said: "It just so happens that the condom puller has gone home and will be here in a few days. You are also leaving home for a few days to support yourself, and then follow me to Lengchang to do some work and earn more money. secure."

"Yeah, yeah." Zhang Yuanmin said at this time, but Zhao Jun agreed to whatever he said.

Seeing that Zhang Yuanmin was honest, Yang Yufeng gave Zhao Jun a grateful look, and then went to the outhouse to cook.

After Zhang Yuanmin finished dinner, it was almost seven o'clock. Zhao Jun said goodbye to the family of three and left Zhang's house to go back to his own home.

He walked quickly, and as he walked, he saw two people in front of him holding hands and swaying.

The little one on the left is his father, Zhao Youcai. The one on the right is Li Baoyu’s father Li Dayong.

These two brothers looked like they had drunk too much.

Zhao Jun hurriedly caught up with them and wanted to help them, but as soon as he got close, he heard Zhao Youcai say to Li Dayong: "Dayong, how is your home like Ruhai?"

"I can go to the ground now." Li Dayong said, "But I have given him a house. Xiaomei has been watching him for the past two days, and she doesn't dare to let him out."

"That's right." Zhao Youcai said: "You have to watch out. He is going out now. If we... no, tell the truth about you hiding the money, you will be embarrassed."

"Yeah." Li Dayong responded casually.

Zhao Youcai said again: "Brother, you have to take it seriously. You have just become a leader. If word spreads about it, what prestige do you still have?"

"Oops!" Li Dayong was suddenly startled and said, "That's not good. This little bastard's mouth is as big as the waistband of cotton pants..."

Hearing Li Dayong curse, Zhao Jun was helpless, but when his father's foot slipped and he stumbled, he rushed up to help Zhao Youcai.

"Oh, my son!" Zhao Youcai seemed drunk but not drunk, and he was a little excited.

Zhao Jun was in the middle, supporting Zhao Youcai on one side and Li Dayong on the other, slowly walking home.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the door of his house, Zhao Jun remembered something and asked Li Dayong: "Uncle Li, you read a lot, do you know who Wei Yan is?"

"Wei Yan?" Li Dayong smiled and said, "That's a fool."

"Ah?" Zhao Jun was stunned.

Li Dayong stretched out his arms and drew a circle in the air and said with a smile: "You said he put the gada in the air and shouted, 'Who dares to kill me', 'Who dares to kill me', and then let someone cut his head off with a knife from behind. , what do you think this is?"

"This..." Zhao Jun just thought at this time, this seems to be different from what Big Crotch said.

Zhao Youcai shouted from the other side: "Is this a fool?"

After saying that, the drunk brothers burst out laughing.
