Reborn in the fiery age, I am a salted fish in the mountains

Chapter 219 Zhou Min Reconciled With Little Monkey

While working, Jiang Yue asked in a low voice, "Sister Zhou Min, shall we weave the net in a while, and then go hunting?"

"No, we'll have to wait until nighttime to start the operation."

Zhou Min replied without raising his head, "We have to wait until all the blue sheep have returned to their caves for the night. Only then will we catch them all!"

Jiang Yue was puzzled, "Hey, Sister Zhou Min, you said that hunting in the mountains, first of all, you have to hold a heart of awe, you have to be in awe of the mountains and nature.

The second is that the hunter must have a compassionate heart, can't he absolutely kill his prey?Now why do you say that you want to catch everything? "

"One catch is one catch, but it doesn't mean that I want to kill them all!"

Hearing that Jiang Yue memorized everything he said in his heart, Zhou Min smiled, "Go to work, it just so happens that Wu Xiaojie is back, as for me, how can I catch them all? At night, Of course you will know."

By the time Zhou Min took Wu Xiaojie and Jiang Yue to weave the barbed wire, it was already 5 or 6 o'clock in the afternoon.

The mountains are high and solar energy is off work early.

Perhaps on the plain at this time, the highest point of the sun is located 1 or 2 feet above the treetops.

But at this time in the mountains, the sun had been blocked by the ridge to the west, and the valley suddenly became dark.

Often at this time, the blue sheep should return to the habitat, then wander around the vicinity twice, and then enter the nest for the night.

Zhou Min, Jiang Yue, and Wu Xiaojie were lying on the grass behind the bushes.

While silently chewing the dry food he brought out, he kept staring at the stone cave halfway up the mountain through the gaps in the bushes.

"BAA Baa baa--"

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the leading sheep finally appeared on the top of the opposite stone wall. After stopping to observe for a long time, the leading sheep let out a deep roar.

Soon afterwards, at one end of the valley.

Blue sheep of all sizes formed a winding column, one after another starting to climb up the small slope at the bottom of the stone wall.

They are ready to go home.

Reaching out his hand and taking out 2 hard candies from his pocket, Zhou Min threw the candies to Wu Xiaojie who was sitting on the grass and kept pulling Wu Xiaojie's hair with his front paws.

The little monkey Zhizhi seemed to want to find the lice on his head.

This time, I accurately touched the old nest of a large group of blue sheep. The little monkey Zhizhi has contributed a lot, and it deserves a little reward.

Seeing something throwing at him, the bored little monkey was startled at first!
It also thinks that this hateful human with long hair, two legs, and a mouth that always clicks when eating wants to plot against itself!

But Zhizhi saw clearly that what fell on the ground were 2 hard candies, then he bulged a pair of big clear eyes and grinned at Zhou Min.

It just looks a little hideous.

Zhou Min smiled back, and at the same time took out 2 hard fruit candies, and gave each of Wu Xiaojie and Jiang Yue one.

Now, Zhizhi looked at the candy in other people's hands, and then looked at the two candies in his own paws, and he immediately looked happier!

It seems that the long-haired human being who is not big in size but has good marksmanship doesn't seem so hateful.
Zhizhi now is not a lonely little monkey who wandered in the ravine in the past.

It has become one with the monkey group on the side of the wild honey pear, and has even developed into the monkey king's confidant among the monkey group.

This is mainly because Zhizhi has been living with humans for a long time, so Zhizhi's IQ development is obviously higher than that of the wild monkeys.

In addition, Zhizhi is still in his infancy and does not pose any threat to the Monkey King's status.

Not to mention giving the Monkey King a green sun hat.

More importantly, all the members of that monkey group know that there are powerful human beings behind Zhizhi!

Therefore, Zhizhi now is no longer the wandering, weak, pitiful and helpless wandering monkey.

Now it not only has playmates of the same kind, Zhizhi can even mobilize the adult monkeys in the monkey group to search for prey for it.

It was precisely because Zhou Min saw the value of Zhizhi that he lowered his figure and began to try to ease the relationship with the little monkey.
On Zhou Min's side, quietly lurking in the bushes, patiently waiting for the night to fall.

On the other side of Aju's hut, Chang Longqing and his son were sweating profusely, full of energy.

After all, when you think about the house that will be built soon, and the wasteland that has been reclaimed, in a sense, isn't it the foundation that the old Chang family will rely on in the future?
No one will be lazy when working for themselves.

In particular, Chang Longqing deliberately ruined his family fortune completely. For a long period of time, he will not return to the background of struggling to survive in the original production team for a long period of time.

They also dare not neglect.

You must know that during this period, when members left the land and the production team to go out to work in the wild (actually, they went out to work privately with the permission of the production team), they were required to pay a certain "management fee" to the production team every month. of.

Chang Longqing, as a "strong laborer" who is just pretending to be a laborer, needs to pay 9 yuan and 9 cents to the production team every month, which is a management fee of 3 cents per day.

Chang Dehua counts as half of the labor force and pays 4 yuan and 9 cents a month.

Chang Deyu is a working woman, and she gets 8 work points for working in the production team, so Chang Deyu needs to hand in 8 yuan a month1.

This amount of money is actually simply unaffordable for the old Chang family who has no income.

Chen Xiaoduan and Chen Wei's brothers and sisters are actually paying the money every month on Chang Longqing's behalf.

The expenditure of more than 20 yuan a month is not too much, and it is not too little.

It depends on the object.

If Chang Longqing wanted to secretly go to a railway construction site or a large-scale project to work as a manager or technician, he would still be able to earn back the expenses.

But the question is which railway construction site or large-scale project construction site would want people like Chang Deyu and Chang Huade?
Don't tell me that Chang Deyu is beautiful. There will definitely be a girl like this on the construction site.
Please, other people's construction sites located in deep mountains and old forests need people who can work!

It's not necessary to recruit a fair, thin, and good-looking beauty like Chang Deyu.

Useless!Others are practical and don't like to play with such empty-headed things.

On the construction site, there is a young girl like Chang Deyu who works so ordinary and is easy to attract others, but it will only disturb the morale of others and disturb the rhythm of everyone's work.

We must know what is the plan for those who can abandon their families, dare to leave the production team, and go to work on the construction site?
make money!

They just want to make a lot of money, and when they pack up their bedding and go home, they can take out a sum of money from under the insoles to buy medicines for their parents and pay for their children's school fees.They only want to let their parents, wives, and children eat meat once and for all.

Buy a new-style red-headed rope for my daughter, buy new clothes for my wife, and buy some better traditional Chinese medicine for my elderly and sick parents
The reason why those people on the construction site are so practical is not that they don't yearn for beauty, and they don't want a woman to let them relax.

All of this is actually forced out of life.

Therefore, those who dare to go out to work and earn money, they will only suppress all their desires to the minimum.

These people only want to make a lot of money, so that their hut with air leaks from all sides will be filled with the warmth of home.

Instead of passing year after year, being sad every year, and ending up miserable and miserable
Therefore, in this period, the eldest girl is not as valuable and precious as imagined.

If you have to talk about marriage.

For the vast majority of people, the first choice is the other party's class status, family economic conditions, whether they can work, and whether they will give birth to these things.

rather than appearance.

If people are poor, they will pay more attention to practicality and durability.

In the words of rural people, that is: good-looking, can it be eaten?

Marrying a beautiful daughter-in-law not only costs dowry gifts and money, but also food!
(Whoever's wife is more beautiful, his man will naturally be more willing to work hard at night. If he works hard, won't it cost more food?)
People in this period didn't pay much attention to the girl's appearance.

Instead, they pay more attention to the woman: can they earn work points for the family?Is it possible to give birth to those with big buttocks and round waists?
Only a super strong woman with a strong body and endless strength, preferably working in the fields in the morning, giving birth to a baby at noon, and struggling to cook for the family at night, is Rural people in this period, they choose the first choice for their daughter-in-law.
It is precisely due to the constraints of these objective factors that Chang Longqing really can't go out alone to fight in the wild.

After some careful consideration, like Chen Wei and Chen Xiaoduan, the two brothers and sisters inquired about Han Xiaokang's character and current situation.

In the end, Chang Longqing chose to bring a pair of children to join Han Xiaokang.

Today's old Chang's family of three has no way out at all, so they can only go straight forward, do what they can, and grit their teeth if they can't!
Chang Longqing and his son were busy driving the donkey to open up wasteland.

Chang Deyu helped Han Xiaokang build the fence.

Doing this job is much easier than opening up wasteland, but it is not the reason why Chang Deyu likes to stay here to help. After all, before entering the mountain, in those 2 or 3 years, the main labor force of the old Chang family still seemed a little weak of Chang Deyu.

It is she who supports this family.

As for that, now Chang Deyu would rather not stay with his father and younger brother and share the more arduous labor for them, but choose to help Han Xiaokang build the fence.
Why is that?
Chang Deyu actually couldn't tell clearly.

Anyway, I just want to stay here. Anyway, I just hate Han Xiaokang. Sometimes his eyes will fall on her chest inadvertently.

But if Han Xiaokang doesn't look at him for a long time, Chang Deyu's heart will feel a little empty again.
This feeling is very strange: there is a complex feeling of wanting to escape, but unable to move your legs, and just taking a few steps, but your heart will be left in place.

Why?Why is this so?
Chang Deyu didn't know, wanted to escape, but was reluctant to leave.When Han Xiaokang's gaze rested on the sharp point, he wanted to cover it up.

But more importantly, he puffed up his chest unnaturally
People are so strange. Chang Deyu is very wary of all men. After working for a day, when she comes home to wipe herself, she does it in the dark.

I'm afraid that someone will see my body.

But this morning, that annoying, hateful Han Xiaokang, what else did he not see?

That being the case, when Chang Deyu bent over and pouted her ass in front of Han Xiaokang, she no longer deliberately concealed it.
Everyone worked very hard today, and before we knew it, it was getting late.

When night fell, everyone called it a day.

After dinner, Chang Longqing and his son, who were almost exhausted and paralyzed, ran to the upper reaches of the creek to wash up hastily, and then groped exhaustedly into the shack on the mountainside, and fell asleep after a while, unconscious.

Because the shack on the half slope is not within the protection of the fence.

Han Xiaokang, who worried that their father and son would be in danger in the middle of the night, not only handed them two firecrackers, one long and one short.

And he specially sent little wolf Lele over to watch the night for Mr. Chang and the others.

Lele is still small. If a leopard, black bear or other beasts really come in the middle of the night, Lele will definitely not be able to resist it.

But at least it gives early warning.

As long as Lele can gain a few seconds of precious reaction time, even if Chang Longqing and his son are in a daze, they won't have time to shoot.

Han Xiaokang believes that with his teleportation skills, it is enough to feel the help.

When Mr. Chang and the others left, only Han Xiaokang, Aju, and Chang Deyu were left in the hut.

Aju is a night owl, she usually only goes out to work at night.

Today, Han Xiaokang, who had worked all day during the day, was so tired that he ran to the creek to wash up briefly.

He brought a basin of hot water for washing feet, scalded Han Xiaokang's feet carefully, and then let Han Xiaokang lie on the bed and go to sleep.

In fact, among the people present, Chang Deyu was the most tired one: she went out with Aju last night and did most of the night's farm work in the field.

That is, in the early hours of the morning, after Aju returned to the hut to take a nap, Chang Deyu came back and squinted for a while.

But because of the neighbors Han Xiaokang and Aju, the two of them cuddled there and became intimate for a while.

Chang Deyu, who was scratching his heart and lungs and trembling with excitement, didn't fall asleep for a long time.
After not sleeping for a while,

Chang Deyu's father, younger brother, and Han Xiaokang have all gotten up to work in the fields, and Zhou Min has also gotten up to make breakfast for everyone.

Even Aju got up to help.

Under such circumstances, Chang Deyu, who is still on her heels and is afraid of being driven away, dares to sleep!

They went out and worked for a long time. At noon, Aju and Han Xiaokang hugged each other for a lunch break, while Chang Deyu, who had just begun to love each other, could only hide in the front yard to comb the loofah and pumpkin vines.

Didn't sleep at all!
Now that she has regained her energy, Aju is carrying a hoe and is going to work in the backyard again.

Chang Deyu, who didn't dare to neglect, could only endure the exhaustion and drowsiness all over his body, and forced himself to accompany Aju to work in the backyard.

And Han Xiaokang stayed in the house to sleep alone.

To be honest, since I ran to Aju's hut to live.

This is the first time for Han Xiaokang to fall asleep alone!
