Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

Chapter 16 Is She Also Considered an Old Person?

The bus swayed for more than an hour and finally returned to the old city at around five o'clock.

Yang Chong did not go back to the courtyard directly, but turned around and went to Pigeon City.

There are a lot of wild rabbits and pheasants in the space, and I have to find a way to exchange them for money.

When he was almost at the Pigeon City, he found an empty corner, took out a few hares and pheasants from the space, put them in the pocket he carried with him, then carried them on his shoulders and went over.

There was a famine in those years, and the food rations given by the government to each person were getting smaller and smaller. Moreover, many families only had one or two people in their families, so every household could not get enough to eat. However, the rations were limited, so there was a pigeon market.

Even in Pigeon City, there is not much stock now. As soon as some food is taken out, it is snatched away in a flash, not to mention meat.

So Yang Chong had no trouble selling the dozen or so wild rabbits and pheasants, and they were sold out in a short time.

Fortunately, he had made preparations and left a pheasant and a wild rabbit at home, otherwise Yu Xiu would not even have the chance to taste the new food after a busy day.

And these game also brought him rich rewards.

A dozen wild rabbits and a few pheasants were sold for more than one hundred and fifty yuan. This was because Yang Chong was kind-hearted and did not want to ask for too high a price. If it were someone who often hangs out in the pigeon market, they could have sold it for at least two hundred yuan.

With more than 150 yuan in his pocket, Yang Chong felt very happy and even hummed a little tune while walking.

When he was almost at the gate of the courtyard, he took out the remaining pheasants and hares from the space and held them in his hands.

When passing by the street entrance, he turned his head to take a look, and then he suddenly felt something in his heart and went in.

When he came out again, the hare in his hand was gone, and Director Li, with a smile on his face, appeared behind him.

Yang Chong gave the hare to Director Li. Although the director of the street office was not a high-ranking official, he had a lot of real power in this era. If he had a good relationship with her, it would only benefit him in the future.

What's more, he and Yu Xiu could not finish this pheasant in one meal. If he went back to the mountain tomorrow, it would be easy for him to catch eight or ten rabbits, let alone one.

It was not yet dark and the people in the front yard were still busy cooking. When they saw Yang Chong coming back with a fat pheasant, they all widened their eyes in surprise.

Yan Bugui hurried over and said, "Hey, Chongzi, such a big pheasant? Where did you get it?"

Yang Chong smiled and said, "Oh, Third Uncle, I went back to my hometown today and took a taxi in the mountains."

The third uncle clicked his tongue twice and said, "You are so lucky. I heard that pheasants in the mountains are hard to hunt now. Even the people in the mountains can't catch them."

As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the pheasant, and he did not move away: "Chongzi, this pheasant is not easy to deal with. Do you want your third aunt to help you deal with it?"

Of course Yang Chong understood his little thoughts. He didn't want him to help him clean the pheasants. This was an opportunity for him to continue to help and eat pheasant meat with him!

Of course he would not be so generous, so he smiled and said, "No need, Third Uncle, I grew up in the mountains, so it's not difficult for me to catch pheasants and rabbits."

As he said this, he carried the pheasant into the central courtyard.

Behind him, Yan Bugui shook his head with regret: "This kid, can you two finish such a big pheasant?"

In the central courtyard, everyone could hear clearly the conversation between Yan Bugui and Yang Chong. At this moment, more than a dozen pairs of eyes were staring at Yang Chong and the pheasant in his hand.

The Jia family members who were having dinner at home all pricked up their ears, dropped their bowls and ran out, and Jia Zhang followed them.

"I want to eat pheasant!" Banggeng ran outside, stood in front of Yang Chong, stared at the pheasant in his hand and said loudly.

Yang Chong stopped and pushed it away with his hand: "Go away, if you want to eat it, go back and ask your father to beat it!"

Bang Geng got anxious and sat down on the ground, opening his mouth and crying, "I want to eat pheasant, grandma, I want to eat pheasant!"

Yi Zhonghai, who was in the distance, watched from afar without saying anything.

At this time, Jia Zhang chased out of the house. As soon as she came out, her eyes were fixed on the pheasant in Yang Chong's hand, and her saliva was almost flowing out.

"Mr. Yang, didn't you hear me? My son Banggeng wants to eat the pheasant in your hand, but don't you know how to respect the elderly and love the young? Why don't you share some of the pheasant with us?" Jia Zhang said angrily.

Everyone in the hospital was almost laughed at by her "bandit logic".

Yang Chong looked at her speechlessly, thinking how could you say such stupid things?

Before he could say anything, Yu Xiu heard the noise and ran out from inside the house. She stood in front of him, glaring at Jia Zhang and saying, "Go and hunt pheasants if you want! My brother spent a whole day hunting pheasants, why should I give them to you? And you want us to respect the old and love the young? You are disrespecting your elders and taking advantage of your age!"

"You..." Jia Zhang was furious: "You damn girl, you are not from our courtyard, is it your turn to speak?"

Yu Xiu refused to give in: "Who said I am not from the courtyard? I am the wife of my brother Chongzi. You can't eat my pheasant. I won't allow it!"

Jia Zhang curled her lips and said, "You are just a beggar picked up from the street, and you want to marry someone else's wife? Pah!"

Before he finished speaking, Yang Chong pulled Yu Xiu in front of him to the side, took a step forward, raised his hand and slapped her.

Snapped!

Before Jia Zhang could come to her senses, she was slapped hard in the face and almost fell to the ground.

She covered her burning face with her hands and looked at Yang Chong in front of her in surprise. She didn't react for a while.

The people in the yard didn't expect that Yang Chong would directly hit someone, and they were all stunned.

After a long while, Jia Zhang came back to her senses and howled like a pig being slaughtered: "Someone is beating someone up! Yi Zhonghai, you are the boss of the courtyard, and you don't care if this brat bullies an old man!"

So, everyone turned their eyes to Yi Zhonghai in the distance.

Yi Zhonghai coughed, then walked over with a large teacup in his hand, and said with a dark face: "Yang Chong, you are going too far! How dare you hit the old man in the courtyard!"

At this time, Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu in the room heard something wrong and quickly ran out of the house.

Seeing Jia Zhang sitting on the ground, Jia Dongxu quickly asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Jia Zhang pointed at Yang Chong and said, "Dongxu, this little bastard named Yang hit me!"

Jia Dongxu's eyes suddenly turned red: "Yang Chong, you dare to hit my mother? I must fight you today!"

As he said this, he rolled up his sleeves and looked like he was ready to fight Yang Chong to the death.

Yang Chong snorted, not taking him seriously at all, and said coldly: "Hit an old woman? Is she also an old woman? She is disrespectful to the elderly and speaks foul language. If she dares to scold my wife, I will hit her!"
