Back to seven or seven kinds of fields to raise children

Chapter 92
"In a few days it will be the new year, after the new year, the fourth child will marry a daughter-in-law, our family has to kill pigs and hold banquets, and there are still many things to be busy.

Don't go to the mountains for a while, help out at home, and take care of the fourth marriage, okay? "

Zhou Guilan knew that when her son was older, he couldn't force her to do anything. Beating and scolding were useless, they could only push her son 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.

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

When they move out in the next year, the gun and dog will have to be returned to the brigade, so there will be no such convenient conditions.

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

But my mother's words are also reasonable. The brothers have been tossing a lot these days, and many people in the village are jealous.

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

Although Xu Shiyan was not afraid of those people who were playing tricks behind their backs, he still had to worry about his parents, and he couldn't make the old man worry too much.

How could Xu Shiyan ignore my mother's love for her son?I had no choice but to agree.

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

Fortunately, I have indeed made a lot of things recently, and there are just a few black blind men.

In addition to all kinds of skins and so on, the money brothers sold it for five cents, and each family could probably get hundreds of cents.

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

Xu Chenghou scolded, Zhou Guilan coaxed.

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

The Xu Shiyan brothers all agreed, except for those clips, they will have to go and see it in a few days, and they will never go hunting in the mountains again.

Only then did the old couple feel 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.

Now at this time, it is not said 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.

There are three rooms like Xu's house, all of which are opposite to each other, so the east room and the north kang are cleaned up and given to the young couple.

For those whose family conditions are difficult, a whole family of kang sleeps, and they also have to get married.

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

There are only those styles of furniture in this year, 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 had already prepared cotton and cloth, and the quilt was brought back from Tonghua by Xu Shiyan.

There are not many two shops 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 that needs to be busy.

This is also easy. The Xu family raised two fat pigs and killed one on the 25th of the twelfth lunar month.

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

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

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

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

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

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 used this method, and several people could sit on the wooden raft.

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

It's 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 all the way 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 Songjiang River, and then taking a car from Songjiang River to the county seat, and the time is free.

The horse sledge stopped under the bridge west of the county seat, but 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 purchasing station.

The New Year is approaching, and many hunters in the 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, and quickly took out all kinds of hides they had hunted recently, as well as three bear gallbladders.

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

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

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

Three bear galls, two copper and one grass, especially the brown bear one, with big copper galls, one can cover two.

These three gallbladders alone sold for 500 yuan, and other squirrel skins, badger skins, otter skins, and sable skins were sold for another [-] yuan.

It was sold for 600 yuan at once, and the brothers were all very happy, while the others in the room were also envious of each other.

Xu Shiyan took the money and gave the three brothers 100 yuan each.

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

"Second brother, you are going to buy candies, 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 elder 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 go 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 sledge.

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

Xu Shiyan hurriedly walked towards the Xijiang River in the county seat, not noticing that as soon as he left the purchasing 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 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.

This time they brought more money, so they were 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 was another person beside him, not too tall, with a bit of sternness in his brows and eyes, and a bulging waist, as if he was carrying some belongings.

"Where is it? Damn, 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.
