Golden Color Xiangjiang: A Young Man's Dream in a Siheyuan
Chapter 53 Something went wrong in the mountains
After sending these people away, Zhou Jin and He Yushui could finally have a good dinner.
I can only say that this meal was really hard to come by. It took me a whole day to get it home, and it was almost ready, but then these people came to cause trouble again. It was really a series of twists and turns.
Zhou Jin went to the kitchen to serve the dishes, and He Yushui also came out to help. The two sat on the kang and were finally able to enjoy this delicious meal.
Afterwards, no one in Zhou Jin's house spoke except for the sounds of slurping and smacking food.
Zhou Jin and He Yushui devoured the sumptuous dinner in no time. They burped in satisfaction, with happy smiles on their faces.
After dinner, Zhou Jin cleaned up the dishes and prepared to wash them, while He Yushui sat on the edge of the kang, watching his busy figure, her heart filled with gratitude and warmth.
"Thank you, Brother Zhou Jin." He Yushui said softly.
Zhou Jin looked back at her and replied with a smile: "Silly girl, why are you still so polite to your brother? There are apples in the cupboard, take them yourself."
After Zhou Jin finished washing the dishes, the two chatted for a while on the kang before He Yushui went home to sleep.
Zhou Jin also moved the kang table away and prepared to have a good rest.
The others also went home happily to eat today. Although they had to endure the smell of Zhou Jin's food, they thought that they could go into the mountains to hunt later and eat a lot of meat. Even if they were just eating steamed buns, they felt it was very delicious.
Yi Zhonghai was in a very good mood at the moment. Although the process was full of twists and turns, he finally achieved his set goal.
Although Zhou Jin handed the address to Liu Haizhong, Yi Zhonghai firmly believed that these people could see who had contributed the most in the whole thing.
Liu Haizhong was in high spirits today. When he got home, he asked his second aunt to add an egg.
Today, I didn't have to do anything, but I got the detailed address from Zhou Jin.
After returning home, Liu Haizhong couldn't help but take out the note to check it, and his three sons also came over.
This is a big matter concerning their meat consumption, and boys generally have no natural resistance to going into the mountains to hunt, so the three brothers of the Liu family are particularly active in this matter.
They also urged Liu Haizhong to go to the street office with Zhou Jin to register early tomorrow. If there was enough time, everyone could go into the mountains to hunt and fish tomorrow.
Scenes like this are happening in almost every household in the entire courtyard.
Silent all night.
The next morning, probably around seven o'clock, Zhou Jin was woken up by Liu Haizhong, who yelled at him to go to the street office.
Zhou Jin never expected that they would be so enthusiastic. He had no choice but to get up and follow Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui to the street office to register. He didn't even have time to eat breakfast.
When Zhou Jin and the others arrived at the central courtyard, Yi Zhonghai also came over.
"Lao Liu, Xiao Zhou, I'll go with you. I have some acquaintances in the street office, so I can get things done faster."
Zhou Jin didn't have any feelings towards Yi Zhonghai, but Liu Haizhong always felt that Yi Zhonghai was showing off to him. In the past, Yi Zhonghai was a big boss, and Yi Zhonghai would go to any meeting in the street office.
Naturally, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui had no chance to get to know the leaders of the street office. Besides, Liu Haizhong's brain and mouth were really not good, so it was good enough that he didn't offend anyone.
But Yan Bugui is too stingy. Even when he goes to the street office to do business, he always follows the rules of the Siheyuan. Don't you think anyone in the street office would like someone like him?
So looking at Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong didn't want Yi Zhonghai to go with him, but Yi Zhonghai was right, it would indeed save a lot of trouble if he was there.
If we finish it early, we can set off earlier. Today happens to be Sunday, so everyone has a day off.
Yes, what Zhou Jin didn't expect was that they planned to set off directly into the mountains to hunt after completing the filing.
They started taking action on these things last night. Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui notified everyone who had signed the agreement door to door.
They had already made a plan. Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong followed Zhou Jin to the street office to register in the morning, while the others took the prepared tools and waited at the exit of the city.
In the end, Liu Haizhong agreed to Yi Zhonghai's request, so the three of them took Yan Bugui to the street office in the front yard.
With the help of Yi Zhonghai, it only took them a few minutes to complete the filing at the street office. Then the three of them left and met up with the others at the exit of the city.
Zhou Jin also went home to prepare breakfast. He was too tired from playing yesterday, so he didn't plan to go out today.
Yi Zhonghai and the other two hurried and finally arrived at the gathering place within half an hour. The others had been waiting here for a long time.
After seeing that everyone was present, they headed towards the mountains in a mighty procession. Because they didn't have bicycles, if they walked, they probably wouldn't be able to finish hunting and return to Sijiu City that day.
"Let's go!" Uncle Yi Zhonghai called out, and everyone followed him to the bus stop, waiting for the bus to the foot of the mountain.
The trip takes an hour to reach the destination, but everyone is very patient and chats excitedly along the way, discussing issues such as how to divide the work and how to distribute the prey, as if they have already seen the scene of returning with a full load.
Finally arriving at the foot of the mountain, everyone got off the car and started hiking up the mountain.
They walked along the mountain road, admiring the beautiful scenery around them and keeping an eye out for any prey.
However, none of them had ever hunted, so they had no idea where animals might pass by and where would be best to set traps.
The key is that none of them knows how to make a more complicated trap like Zhou Jin's. At most, they can make a noose trap. In this way, even if they really find the right position, it is difficult to trap the animal.
Most people just took kitchen knives, axes, daggers, and some simply found a branch in the woods.
Yi Zhonghai directly divided the work among everyone.
"Old Yan, you have good fishing skills. Take the people who know how to fish and go fishing in the small river at the foot of the mountain."
He looked at Liu Haizhong again and said, "Old Liu, take the people who know how to set traps and find a suitable place to set them."
After Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, he took the rest of the people and started walking up the mountain to look for animals that came out to look for food.
Yes, you read it right. Yi Zhonghai assigned tasks in front of the two managers, and Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui did not raise any objections. You know, they are the two masters of the courtyard, how could they easily accept the orders of others?
In fact, this was not because Yi Zhonghai conquered Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui with his personal charm, but because these two old men had their own little calculations.
Yan Bugui has always been a shrewd man and an extreme egoist. He understands that in this situation, even if Yi Zhonghai is no longer a big boss, he cannot defeat Yi Zhonghai.
Instead of confronting Yi Zhonghai, it is better to choose cooperation so as to better protect one's own interests.
As for Liu Haizhong, he would not have let Yi Zhonghai steal so much attention. However, after they decided to go up the mountain to hunt today, Liu Haizhong went home and told his three sons.
Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were naturally very excited, but Liu Guangqi, the eldest son of the Liu family, put forward some different views.
"Dad, although I have never hunted in the mountains, I think what Zhou Jin said is right. There must be many dangers in hunting in the mountains. Otherwise, everyone would go hunting in the mountains, and Zhou Jin would not have a chance.
And I believe that when we go into the mountains to hunt tomorrow, Yi Zhonghai will definitely take an active role and try his best to overshadow you and the Third Uncle.
He did this simply to re-establish his prestige in the courtyard so that he could regain his position as the boss in the future.
So we might as well not talk tomorrow and follow Yi Zhonghai's instructions on all actions. As long as we follow his instructions, we won't cause unnecessary trouble.
Of course, this does not mean that we have to obey his command completely. If we encounter danger or other problems, we still need to take timely measures to protect the safety of ourselves and others.
At the same time, we should also pay attention to Yi Zhonghai's behavior. If we find that he does anything inappropriate, we should remind him in time and correct his mistakes.
After all, if something really happens, although Yi Zhonghai is primarily responsible, you will also have to bear joint liability. But if we stop him and Yi Zhonghai still insists on his own way, then it will have nothing to do with us.
After all, you just followed his arrangements, did not directly participate in the decision-making process, and did everything you should do.
Even if we face Director Wang at that time, we will have reasons to defend ourselves, and we can also say that the whole thing was presided over by Yi Zhonghai, and you and the third uncle could not resist the name and had to follow everyone.
In this way, we basically put all the responsibilities on Yi Zhonghai. Of course, this approach is not entirely correct, but when necessary, we can use some means to protect our own interests.
If nothing happens to anyone and the prey is caught, regardless of whether Yi Zhonghai is in charge or not, you and the third uncle are the ones in charge, so you can naturally go to the street office to take credit.
In this way, you will not only gain Director Wang's recognition, but also establish a higher prestige in the courtyard.
And for Yi Zhonghai, his goal has been achieved, so it is a win-win situation.”
Liu Haizhong usually believed in Liu Guangqi's words. After all, this was the Liu family's hope, so this time Liu Haizhong also agreed with Liu Guangqi's statement and secretly informed Yan Bugui. "
Therefore, driven by their own purposes, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui chose to remain silent and carry out the task according to Yi Zhonghai's request. All this also laid the groundwork for the subsequent development of the story...
However, as time went on, they found that things were not that simple. The prey in the mountains and forests seemed to be much less than imagined, and they were also very alert and difficult to catch.
Soon everyone was exhausted and out of breath. Some people started to complain: "Where can we get prey on this mountain? We have been walking for so long and haven't even seen the shadow of a hare!"
Yi Zhonghai tried to calm everyone down and suggested, "Why don't we split into several groups so that the search area will be wider."
Everyone thought this was a good idea, so they divided into three groups and explored in different directions. However, due to lack of experience, they soon lost their way.
At this moment, a scream was heard. It turned out that someone accidentally stepped on a trap and injured his foot severely. Others quickly gathered around and frantically helped to treat the wound.
The originally relaxed and happy atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone realized that this hunting trip might not be as smooth as imagined...
