"Then the village has never taken a woman into the mountains for hunting in these years? Why don't I believe it?"
Du Ermin said: "I can't go without you, and you don't even look at the women who entered the mountain. Hong Shuying from the east of the village was hacked to death by the Japanese at the age of fifteen. Not just one of them, she was hacked to death all at once." Seven!"
A picture quickly appeared in Ning Yue's mind. A group of short winter melons entered the village. The heroine passed by with a knife, and her round head fell to the ground. Another stab, and another head fell to the ground, and then five more slashes, and there were seven cut gourd dolls on the ground.
"And Du Huniu, who led the way for the Eighth Route Army and broke the necks of two Japanese soldiers with her bare hands. Can you compare with them?"
Ning Yue:......
She must know these two people. They are from the same village and are married to people from the same village. The rule of scoring in their village is that a man's full work score is ten points and a woman's eight points. But these two, as long as they work, they will get a and Ten full work points like a man.
One can imagine the strength of these two people.
Ning Yue still didn't give up, she wanted to fight for herself again, "Mom~"
"Don't call me mom, it's useless to call me mother! You just stay at home. When the captain and the others come back from the mountain, they have to open the river to fish. Then you go fishing with them. Mom won't care about you."
Zhang Damei thought, firstly, it is too dangerous to go up the mountain. The team hunted back a big black bear the year before last. Several villagers were injured at that time. Fortunately, those people were not seriously injured. The hand of the old man Geng in the village He was also injured by a wolf while hunting in the mountains more than ten years ago.
Secondly, as for those rabbits and pheasants rushing to hit the tree in front of my daughter, can others see this?
In addition, every time I go hunting in the mountains, I have to go for at least ten days. Most of them may not be able to come back until the Spring Festival. What should I do if my daughter is out of the cold?
You don’t need to be afraid of catching fish. Fish have no attack power. Once the ice is opened, the fish will jump out by themselves if they get anxious. There are so many people, even if one or two of them come for the daughter, who would think of her?
When Ning Yue saw her mother's resolute attitude, her little heart suddenly went cold. She couldn't force her family to come. The worst she could do was wait until next year. She wouldn't be part of the hunt. She could still do it on her own. Entering the inner perimeter of Mangshan Mountain.
Sure enough, the strong wind blew for two days and two nights and then really stopped. The brigade leader immediately beat gongs and drums to ask the villagers to gather at the brigade headquarters. "If you want to go into the mountain, sign up. We will set off on time tomorrow morning. You guys have packed everything, so what?" The old rule is that every household must have someone, except households with five guarantees. Okay, hurry up and sign up if you want to go."
Suddenly someone was shouting at the educated youth group: "Captain, can we educated youths also go?"
The captain immediately yelled irritably: "Educated youth count each household, and only one person can go."
What the hell are you going to do? It’s not enough to cause trouble!
Children who are 12 or 13 years old are not as good as going to the fields. How do you expect them to go hunting in the mountains?
If we really want to let them go, the only function left is to hold them back.
The educated youth area immediately became lively. There were now a total of eight people in their educated youth camp, three women and five men. The male educated youth thought they could go up to the mountain to play together and see how the villagers caught those big guys.
If they could really capture a tiger or a bear, that would be enough for them to brag about for the rest of their lives after they return to the city.
But now that the captain only allowed one educated youth to go, they were scared again. Chen Chen even complained about Tang Chenglin who had just shouted.
"Which one of us will go? Lao Xu, among the educated youths, you are in the best health, how about you go?"
Xu Yansheng glanced at Qiao Wenliang who was speaking, "Should you ask Tang Chenglin first? Just now he asked if the educated youth can go? He definitely wants to go, so I won't join in the fun."
Tang Chenglin also regretted speaking out just now, but he was a little unhappy when he heard Xu Yansheng's words: "I just asked casually, but I didn't want to follow him up the mountain."
Xu Yansheng said: "I have been here for more than two years and have caught up with three winter hunts. In the first two years, the team never let educated youths pick anyone.
I won’t go anyway. The most annoying thing about other people’s hunting teams is that we are holding them back. "
After that, he walked out of the brigade headquarters, and Gao Zhidong followed closely.
The remaining educated youth looked at Tang Chenglin with unkind expressions. Xu Yansheng's meaning was already obvious. If Tang Chenglin hadn't been so talkative, none of them would have had to say anything this time.
On the way back, Gao Zhidong asked tentatively: "Hey, I said you really don't want to go up the mountain?"
"What are you going for? Do you really think hunting is that easy? Not to mention that the snow on the mountain is more than two feet thick. You can only sleep in the wild at night. If you don't do it right, you can get frostbite.
If you are unlucky and encounter those powerful prey, whether you can come back alive is a question. "
He, Chen Chen, and Qiao Wenliang were part of a group of people who went to the countryside. In the first year when they arrived at the Hongguo Production Team, Chen Chen couldn't bear the hardships in the countryside, so he tried every means to return to the city. Unfortunately, his family's conditions were average, and he struggled a lot. If he didn't succeed, he would be honest.
As for Qiao Wenliang, he is a well-rounded person who has a good relationship with everyone in the Educated Youth Point. He can always think of new people in the Educated Youth Point. He is a truly capable person.
"Then tell me, who among the three will go in the end?"
Xu Yansheng narrowed his eyes slightly, "No matter who he is, it has nothing to do with us."
After Chen Chen came back, Gao Zhidong immediately went out to inquire, and in the end the only spot for an educated youth fell on Qiao Wenliang's head.
When Xu Yansheng found out, he prayed for him in his heart for three seconds, then poured hot water to wash his feet and got on the kang to rest.
…
Early the next morning, Du Ermin took his three sons and went to the foot of the mountain to gather with tools. Four people left the house, and it felt like the room suddenly became empty. Ning Yue's class was still going on.
In the first month of next year, the village primary school will be reopened. On the eve of the New Year, Dajiang cannot go to fourth grade with a bunch of little carrots. Therefore, she has to finish teaching all the fifth grade textbooks before the start of the school year, and try to make it more accessible. He will start junior high school in the second half of the year.
There is still Erya, who will be eleven after the new year, and should at least be in the third grade. It’s no good if we don’t pay close attention to the courses. As for the three Ya and the four Ya, the two girls will be nine and seven after the new year. If possible, they will be together. If people are placed in the same class, their progress will be the same anyway.
In this way, the children will have more to learn in the next few days.
It had been half a month since the hunting team left in the mountains. Just when the women in the village were getting a little anxious, on the evening of the 20th, a group of savages entered the village.
There was a commotion outside the yard, and Ning Yue could hear it clearly. The children were shouting: "The hunting team is back, let's go to the team to get some meat!"
Ning Yue didn't care about the lecture anymore, "Mom, when my dad and the others come back, I'll go take a look. You quickly ask your sister-in-law to get some food for my dad and the others."
