By the time Chu Qianqian finished explaining to the five people why he went into the mountains to look for them, Da Zhuang and Hong Niu had already dragged back a wild boar each.
The camp suddenly burst into cheers, but not long after, Lao Wang showed an embarrassed expression and said, "There are only six of us, and one of us sprained his foot and had to be carried out before he could go out.
Just the rotation alone takes four people. These three wild boars cannot be taken away at all. "
The injured person hurriedly said that he only needed a cane to walk, but everyone knew that if that was the case, he might be disabled in the future.
The five people couldn't help but look at Chu Qianqian.
Chu Qianqian thought for a while, took out his hunting knife and quickly made a simple sled again.
Let Da Zhuang and Hong Niu pull them, while he held the sled from behind. After putting three wild boars on the sled for a try, the five members of the rescue team became relieved and excited.
Lao Wang hurriedly said to Chu Xiangqian, "Comrade Chu, I have to trouble you to make another sled."
As the saying goes, "If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools." Although it takes a lot of time to make a sled, the return trip will definitely be much easier with a sled.
Half an hour later, all the people with sprained legs and their luggage were on the second sled. The four people were pulling and pushing, but the speed was actually not as fast as Chu Qianqian and the two hunting dogs.
The five people couldn't help but secretly smacked their lips, this man would make others angry to death.
The group finally got out of the mountains at 11 noon.
If it were Chu Qianqian himself, even if he didn't put the three wild boars into the warehouse, he could still push the sled back 2 or 3 hours earlier.
The leaders and others waiting in the village hugged each other and cheered excitedly when they saw Chu Qianqian really leading the five people out of the mountain.
The big leader in the district held Chu Qianqian's hand tightly and said gratefully, "Xiao Chu, you are doing a good job."
Chu Qianqian hurriedly said a few polite words, and then whispered to the five or six leaders around him, "Leader, with the three wild boars that those five comrades shot, there is no need for us to talk about the rescue.
He said that the reason why he came back late was because he had caught prey, which delayed his trip. "
The old men looked at each other and nodded with smiles on their faces, "Xiao Chu, leave the rest to us. You can go back to the city and celebrate the New Year with your family."
Chu nodded forward, he really didn't have the intention to care about what happened next.
Anyway, the credit is indispensable to oneself, and it cannot be less.
Even if you take the initiative to ignore what happens next, you might get even more rewards.
He took Xue Jianguo and the two hunting dogs to the side of Bian Sanlun and watched the people in the steel rolling mill carry the two wild boars that were killed by Da Zhuang and Hong Niu onto the truck of the steel rolling mill.
I saw Cao Guanglin, Chen Huaili, and Deputy Director Li walking over with smiles on their faces.
Pulling him to the side, he said, "Go forward, these two wild boars weigh 348 kilograms. According to Director Li, the factory will accept them.
It is considered as compensation for them. "
Chu Xiangqian knew that the so-called compensation was related to Chen Huaili's transfer work.
Nodding, Li Huaiming took out an envelope from his pocket. "There are 348 yuan and 300 kilograms of food stamps in it. It is considered as the purchase fee for wild boar and a little thank you for bringing 14 comrades back."
Chu Xiangqian accepted the envelope without any courtesy. With the 300 kilograms of food stamps, he already had 640 kilograms of food stamps in his hand.
The cash amount is 3,975 yuan, which is the salary of ordinary people for seven or eight years.
Deputy Director Li felt relieved when he saw that Chu Qianqian didn't look dissatisfied at all.
He secretly thought that it would be best if Chu Xiangqian was willing to accept the money, so as not to have to use his favors and connections to do things for him.
Cao Guanglin and Chen Huaili also felt relieved and told Chu Xiangqian to celebrate the New Year with peace of mind. He would properly handle the rest with the leaders.
Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that being a leader was not always a good thing.
Looking at this, the leaders in the district, Mentougou and the streets will be happy if they can go home in time to eat dumplings at 12 o'clock tonight.
——
At around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the convoy finally entered the city. Chu Qianqian parked the three-wheeler on the side of the road and waved to the trucks and jeeps from the steel rolling mill.
Deputy Director Li jumped out of the truck, "Go forward, you can use the three-wheeler here first, and then take it back to the factory after you get to work."
Chu Xiangqian nodded hurriedly. With this three-wheeler, he would no longer have to ride a bicycle during the New Year holidays.
He sent Xue Jianguo back to the compound first, and when he arrived at the door of Xue's house, he saw the door opened by itself before he even knocked on the door.
As soon as Xue Jinglan saw Chu Qianqian and Xue Jianguo, she rushed forward excitedly and hugged Chu Qianqian tightly, making Xue Jianguo roll his eyes.
He secretly said that no matter how close his brother was, he still couldn't compare to his lover.
Chu stepped forward and hugged the whimpering little girl in his arms, comforting her in a low voice, "Okay, okay, aren't you back?"
Xue Jinglan smelled the scent of Chu Xiangqian's body, and then nodded with peace of mind, and said with a blushing face, "I overheard my father and grandpa saying in the morning that you went into the mountain to rescue people overnight last night, and I was extremely worried. .
After waiting for a day, it's getting dark, and there's still no news from you. I'm almost dying of anxiety. "
Chu Qianqian tightened Xue Jinglan's arms, "Then I will drink tea in the unit all day long, stare at the cafeteria, go fishing in the afternoon if I have nothing to do, and never save people again."
Xue Jinglan nodded hurriedly, she didn't care whether saving people was important or great.
Over the years, she has been gossiped behind her back a lot. In her heart, she is inevitably a little indifferent to strangers. At the same time, she also pays more and more attention to people who are close to her and treat her well.
"Ahem", Xue Jianguo on the side looked at his own sister, his eyes were full of lovers, and he didn't even say a word of greeting to his brother.
I couldn't see any more, so I coughed a few times.
Xue Jinlan looked sideways and saw her second brother glare at her, and hurriedly broke away from Chu Qianqian's arms.
Blushing, he said, "Second brother, I'm relieved to see you come back safely."
Xue Jianguo rolled his eyes and said to Chu Qianqian with some disgust, "Qianqian, it's getting dark soon. You'd better go home early to have New Year's Eve dinner with your family."
Xue Jinglan immediately disagreed, but she kept Chu Qianqian at home on the night of New Year's Eve for no apparent reason.
He could only hold on to Chu Qianqian's arm reluctantly.
Chu Qianqian said with a smile, "I'm here to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the new year. Then I'll take you around the city on a tricycle."
"Really?" Xue Jinglan was overjoyed. The last time I went to the cinema, it was my first time watching a movie outside.
If I were to visit the scenic spots in Beijing, it would be more places than I have been to since I was a child.
Chu Xiangqian nodded affirmatively, "I will prepare food and drinks then. We will play outside and have a picnic outside. I will send you home in the evening. And we will not stop until we play for three to five days."
Xue Jinglan was overjoyed, grabbed Chu Qianqian's arm and shook it, saying, "Brother Xiang Qiang, you have to keep your word. If you lie to me, I will ignore you for a month."
"Hey," Xue Jianguo said angrily, "I lied to you, and I just ignored you for a month. Your punishment is really light enough."
Xue Jinglan was embarrassed to be told, but she said back, "Second brother, what are you still doing standing here? My parents, grandparents, and grandparents were so worried that they didn't even eat much at lunch.
You'd better go quickly and tell them that they're safe. "
Xue Jianguo couldn't help but become a little anxious when he heard that his parents, grandparents, and grandparents were waiting for him.
He was about to go in, but after taking a few steps, he turned around and grabbed Xue Jinglan's arm, "It's not like we'll never see you again, tonight is reunion night, so it's hard to go in if you don't go forward.
You'd better let him go home early, so that his second uncle, second aunt, and younger brothers and sisters won't have to wait for him. "
Xue Jinglan just said "Oh" honestly, and turned around three times and was pulled through the door by Xue Jianguo.
Chu Qianqian smiled and shook his head, rode on the third wheel, and took Da Zhuang and Hong Niu back to the courtyard.
When he parked his motorcycle by the gate, he saw four brothers and sisters, Aiguo, Aimin, Ailin, and Aiqiu, running out of the yard in a hurry.
After seeing clearly that it was Chu Qianqian, the three patriotic brothers showed bright smiles on their faces.
Ai Qiu, who was only 5 years old, burst into tears and threw herself at his feet. She hugged Chu Qianqian's legs and shouted, "Brother, if you don't come back, I'll think you don't want me anymore."
Chu was stunned and looked at Aiguo, Aimin and Ailin, and saw the three boys showing awkward smiles.
He picked up the crying Aiqiu and asked Aiguo, "What's going on?"
Aiguo waved his hands hurriedly, "It's okay, it's okay, my little sister just can't find you and keeps making trouble. My mother just beat her a few times."
If she continues to disobey, her elder brother will send her back to the forest farm to celebrate the New Year alone. "
Only then did Chu Xiangqian feel relieved. He reached into his pocket and took out a handkerchief to wipe Ai Qiu's tears.
"Okay, if the eldest brother doesn't want your second brother, third brother, or fourth brother, he won't want you either."
Ai Qiu then stopped crying, put her arms around Chu Qianqian's neck, and stayed by his side all night.
Entering the courtyard, not only the second uncle, the second aunt, the third uncle and Aiyuan all went out to greet him.
All the neighbors who heard the voices of Aiguo and others in the yard came to the front yard to pick him up.
Not only did they go into the mountains overnight to save people, they also rescued people from the steel rolling mill and Xu Damao, a neighbor who lived in the same compound.
It can be said that after Xu Damao came back, no one in this courtyard, old or young, would have any conflicts with Chu Xiangqian.
Even the deaf old lady in the backyard was carried into the front yard by Silly Zhu.
Chu Xiangqian hurriedly handed Ai Qiu over to Ai Yuan, but the little girl Ai Qiu refused.
Chu Xiangqian had no choice but to hold her in his arms and walk to the deaf old lady, "Old lady, you are trying to offend me. How can I let you come to greet me?"
The deaf old lady was no longer deaf this time, and said with a smile, "It should be, it should be. No matter how old I am or how high my seniority is, I can't do more than save someone's life.
Xiao Chu, you are a good boy and a good person.
The old lady can live in the same hospital as you, which not only brings glory to my face, but also my blessing. "
After hearing this, the people in the yard gave thumbs up and echoed the deaf old lady's words.
Chu Qianqian hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, no, goodbye. Human life is more important than heaven. I have this ability, so naturally I will not ignore death."
After a lot of politeness, everyone went home to have New Year's Eve dinner.
Chu Xiangjin entered the dining room, and his second aunt and Aiyuan hurriedly brought out the hot food in the pot.
Four dishes and one soup will be just ordinary home cooking in the future.
If you don’t have 12 dishes, you’d be embarrassed to treat us.
But these days, most people don’t have this standard for a wedding treat, including four whole meats and an egg dumpling soup.
Chu Xiangqian carried Ai Qiu to the table, and the little one ignored her parents' scoldings. Whenever she cried, her elder brother would coax her, and she was not willing to leave Chu Xiangqian's arms.
When the food was ready, Chu Xiangqian asked Aiguo and Aimin to bring his second aunt and Aiyuan to the table. Then he asked his second uncle to use his chopsticks first, then picked up a piece of pheasant leg and put it in Ai Qiu's bowl.
The little guy was so happy that he grabbed the drumstick and stuffed it into his mouth.
The second uncle and second aunt looked at her and wanted to beat her up.
It's just that on New Year's Eve, it's unlucky to hit a child.
I thought about waiting until the New Year before settling the accounts with Aiqiu.
After the little guy was full, he sat aside and let Chu Qianqian drink with his second uncle, third uncle, Aiguo and Aimin.
As for Ai Lin, he could only sit aside and watch.
After finishing a bottle of Niulanshan, Chu Xiangqian remembered the Maotai and Wuliangye he had obtained last time. He went back to the house as a cover-up and took out two bottles of Wuliangye from his backpack.
As for Maotai, if it is not necessary, hide it first.
After Aiyuan came here, the only bad thing was that it was difficult to take out some things at will.
After all, Aiyuan is cleaning up the house, and she basically knows everything there is.
The second uncle and the third uncle were not willing to drink Wuliangye, so Chu Xiangqian simply drank it.
After the meal, the second uncle and the third uncle were seven to eighty percent drunk and refused to drink any more.
After cleaning up, drinking tea and eating some melon seeds and peanuts, the sound of firecrackers came from outside.
Ai Qiu couldn't sit still.
Chu Xiangqian didn't want to go out, so he took out 5 cents from his pocket and gave it to Ai Lin, asking him to take Ai Qiu to play with the children in the yard.
Da Zhuang and Hong Niu, who had been lying in the room, got up and followed Ai Yuan out when Chu looked forward.
With two hunting dogs around, let alone children bullying Ai Qiu, even a few adults had to kneel when facing Da Zhuang and Hong Niu.
Aiyuan, who had already stood up, saw this and sat back down with a smile.
The family talked and talked about the two work targets in Chu Xiangqian's hands.
"Moving forward, I have discussed with your second aunt and third uncle, and I still plan to continue to stay in the forest farm. It is better to sell the two quotas in your hand to the captain and accountant Jiang.
What they mean is that as long as you agree, each family will give you 600 yuan.
If their children can be allowed to work at the commune police station, an additional 100 yuan will be given. "
Chu Qianqian was stunned. If he went to the police station in the city, the price would definitely be lower.
After all, you can get a room in the city and you have a household registration in the city.
As for having fixed grains and an iron rice bowl, regular commune workers also meet these conditions.
"Second uncle, why don't Uncle Qin and Accountant Jiang let their children enter the city?"
The second uncle smiled and said, "Uncle Qin himself is an officer of the Forestry Bureau, and he has many acquaintances and acquaintances. It is not necessarily better for the children to stay in the city than in the commune."
The third uncle nodded, "Taking rations as an example, 33 kilograms is basically the maximum in the city. But for commune officials, 33 kilograms of rations are common.
If they often go to the countryside, many comrades at the police station will receive subsidies, and they can find some extra money and food.
Moreover, the commune police station directly manages forest farms and other villages. Not only can he speak as well as being a public servant in the city, but he can also take care of his brothers and brothers of the same clan.
The most important thing is that Uncle Qin and Accountant Jiang can also help their children with their relationship in the commune. "
