The next day, while Li Shiqiang and Xu Sheng were still sleeping in the house, they heard voices coming from outside from time to time.
When Li Shiqiang got dressed and walked out of the house, he saw several figures appearing on the foundation of the new house next door.
"Mom, do we have someone coming so early?"
My mother, Chen Xianglan, smiled while holding her rice bowl and said, "I borrowed money from someone else yesterday, and they thought it was good, so I came to work so early."
After borrowing so much money yesterday, Chen Xianglan still blamed herself for going out to show off before going to bed at night.
As a result, on the second day, she saw many people coming to help her family repair their house before dawn, and she was very happy.
When Li Shiqiang saw his mother smiling, he also said slightly relaxed: "Mom, I told you yesterday that borrowing so much money this time is not entirely a bad thing. At least the popularity in this village has increased. From now on, it will be better. No one can say that our family is an outsider anymore."
"What a foreigner! You are no longer a foreigner!"
Chen Xianglan stared at Li Shiqiang with a smile, then handed him the porridge in her hand and said, "Go and wake Sheng Wazi up for breakfast."
"Ms. Chen, I'm up. There's no need to shout."
Xu Sheng suddenly emerged from behind and waved his hand quickly.
"Okay, then you go to the main room to have breakfast."
After the whole family and the brothers Xu Sheng and Xu Lian started to have breakfast, the square table at home was still not enough.
"Nongchang, you will find someone to make tables and chairs after a while. We will add more people to the house in the future. This is not enough." Chen Xianglan looked up and said while taking care of the youngest Li Shijun to eat.
"OK."
Li Nongchang nodded, then turned to Xu Sheng and asked, "Sheng Wazi, are you really planning to move out of your home and get a house of your own?"
After all, this matter is not a small matter. Not only does he have a falling out with his family, but he also has to spend a lot of money to build a house.
So I still have to ask more clearly.
"Uncle Li, don't worry. I thought about it for half the night last night. Whether it's the future or the present, whether it's for me or Sister Lian, it's time for me to move out of that house." Xu Sheng put down the chopsticks in his hand and said He replied with a serious face.
"Okay, as long as you say this, it will be done. Then follow me today to find Huang Zhishu to approve the land and find a land for your home."
"Then I'll go with Uncle Li after I finish eating."
After the two of them finished discussing today's affairs, Chen Xianglan looked at Li Shiqiang again and said, "Er baby, then you will follow me to find your Aunt Zhang today and ask her to help go to the Huang family to ask."
Now that the Li family has bought the three major items, it's time to find a matchmaker to discuss the marriage again.
Unexpectedly, Li Shiqiang shook his head and said: "Mom, why don't you go to Aunt Zhang alone? I want to go to the mountains to see if I can make a better leather, and I will send the leather to you then." .”
"Give me leather?"
Chen Xianglan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay, you happen to be a hunter, so it doesn't make sense not to give me a piece of leather."
"Um."
Li Shiqiang nodded, looked at Xu Sheng who looked interested next to him, and said with a smile: "You can follow me, old man, and book your house first. I just want to go for a walk in the mountains and pack some things for my future father-in-law's family. "
After hearing what he said, Xu Sheng could only follow Li Nongchang to deal with the house.
Li Shiqiang, on the other hand, made preparations and headed to Laowu Mountain.
This time he went to visit Laowu Mountain. It was really after he heard that he wanted a matchmaker to come to his door that he thought of sending him a piece of leather.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited until this time to go out.
"Let's go, Xiaohua."
Carrying Five and Six Postures and Xiao Hua, Li Shiqiang went straight to Laowu Mountain.
By the time he arrived, it was already noon.
After eating something at the foot of the mountain, he came to the place where he last saw the red deer.
The reason why I came here was to see if I could still encounter the lynx from last time.
He said he came to wander around the mountains, but actually he already had a goal in mind.
Among the animal skins, the best and most suitable for making coats are sable, otter, fox, and lynx.
Lynx fur has thick plush, soft and thick skin, strong warmth retention, solid and durable.
If you can use a lynx skin as an engagement gift, the price will definitely not drop.
But for now, it still depends on whether we can encounter that lynx again.
After all, it had been so many days, and there was no way the lynx was still here waiting for him.
Sure enough, Li Shiqiang took Xiaohua around the place where he last encountered the lynx several times, but still failed to encounter it.
Since we can't find it, we can only see if we can find something else.
"Woo...ow...wow..."
While walking, Li Shiqiang suddenly heard long-lasting cries of pain coming from the forest, as if some animal was wailing.
Li Shiqiang glanced at the sound and immediately looked in the direction from which the sound came.
As he got closer, the wailing voice became clearer and clearer.
"Isn't there something in it?"
Hearing the wailing sound, Li Shiqiang seemed to have remembered something and quickly quickened his pace.
There are traps everywhere in the mountains. Wild animals often step on the traps accidentally. Once caught by the traps, those beasts will scream like this uncontrollably.
What's surprising is that when Li Shiqiang arrived at the place where the sound came from, he didn't see a single mountain beast at all.
The one that was howling was a black dog. It looked like it should be a trained hunting dog, otherwise it would not have been brought into the mountains.
It's just that the black hound looks a little bad. One of its front legs is tightly clamped by a clamp on the ground. The clamped area has become bloody, and the ground is also bloody.
Not only that, there are many signs of being bitten or scratched on this black dog.
Looking at it, it must have been trapped by the clamp for a long time, otherwise it wouldn't have so many injuries.
And the black dog with such scars was naturally very weak at this time.
But seeing the sudden appearance of Li Shiqiang and Xiaohua, Black Dog still stood up and roared very ferociously: "Woof woof woof..."
"Don't scream, don't scream."
Li Shiqiang slowly moved closer, trying to steady the black dog.
As he approached, he asked, "Why have you been trapped here for so long? Why doesn't your master come and take care of you?"
The black dog did not calm down because of his approach. Instead, it began to grin, seemingly ready to bite.
Seeing this, Li Shiqiang could only stop helplessly.
If he wanted to save the dog, he would have to remove the clamp, but after all, he was not the dog's owner. It would be difficult to get close to it when it was injured to its current state.
But just when Li Shiqiang felt a headache, Xiaohua on the side suddenly opened his mouth and barked at the black dog several times.
After hearing Xiaohua's cry, the black dog slowly closed its mouth and stopped roaring.
Li Shiqiang glanced at Xiaohua with surprise, and tentatively moved closer to the black dog again.
