After teasing his third sister for a while, Li Shiqiang was ready to go out to find Yun Mei.
But as soon as he left the yard, he saw another familiar figure approaching.
"Brother Dong, why are you here?"
I remember that since Chen Dong went to Heitai Mountain with him last time, the two of them had not had much contact.
The most recent meeting was the night when Li Shiqiang killed Blind Bear at the foot of Qingxia Mountain.
Why did Brother Chen Dong suddenly come to your door again?
"Haha, Erba, it's not easy to see you recently. This is my third time."
Chen Dong smiled lightly, showing no impatience.
After hearing this, Li Shiqiang was suddenly startled and asked quickly: "Three times already, Brother Chen Dong, what do you want to see me for?"
Some time ago, the Li family was busy with marriage arrangements with the Huang family, and Li Shiqiang just came back from the county town yesterday. He really didn't know that Brother Chen Dong had already looked for him so many times.
"It's nothing serious, it's just me, old man, who wants to treat you to a meal."
"Master Chen!"
Li Shiqiang stared and asked in surprise: "Master Chen, are you inviting me to dinner?"
"Yeah. At noon today, in front of our house."
Brother Chen Dong smiled and nodded, and said: "Now that your house is rich, don't dislike our home-cooked food."
"How could that happen!"
Li Shiqiang shook his head and said with a slightly puzzled expression: "Why did Mr. Chen think of inviting me to dinner?"
"You'll know after you go there."
After Chen Dong finished speaking, he turned around and went home.
Li Shiqiang was still a little confused, so he simply returned to the house and found Chen Xianglan who was washing dishes in the kitchen: "Mom, Mr. Chen said he would invite me to his house for a meal at noon."
"Ah? Why does Uncle Chen suddenly want to invite you to dinner?"
Chen Xianglan stared, with some confusion on her face.
Then, she asked excitedly: "Are I going to take you into the mountains to hunt for things in the future? If Mr. Chen takes you into the mountains, then I will feel more at ease."
"Take me into the mountains?"
Li Shiqiang thought about it and felt that there was indeed such a possibility.
The last time Mr. Chen's son took him into the mountains was because the Li family suddenly became rich and could build a house with green tiles.
Although he went there once and didn't go there much, Brother Chen Dong was really curious about why he could make so much money, so he invited him.
But this time, the Li family suddenly became rich again and could afford three major items.
This time it is very likely that Mr. Chen wanted to find out how his family made so much money by beating things.
This is not an overthinking. Since I bought the three big items some time ago, many people have come to Li's house to hang out and chat.
Especially those who were looking for Chen Xianglan. Anyway, they just wanted to find out how the Li family became rich.
Chen Xianglan has said many times that Li Shiqiang got something from the mountains and sold it, but few people believed it.
If the things in the mountain are so valuable, why aren’t other people in the village getting rich?
Just like Li Nongxing this morning, he was so troubled by his wife that he came to Li's house to inquire in person.
"Er baby, I'm going to visit Uncle Chen's house at noon today. You can't go empty-handed. Find something quickly and bring it with you at noon."
"Well, there's still some red deer meat left from the last hunt, so I'll take that with me."
Although Li Shiqiang started preparing for the door-to-door ceremony, he actually rejected the idea of going up the mountain together.
Following Mr. Chen into the mountains may sound like a prestigious title, but it is not necessary for Li Shiqiang.
Based on his hunting experience in his previous life, it didn't matter whether someone took him into the mountains or not.
He could not even recognize the hunting mountains near Jinsha Village with his eyes closed, but at least he was very familiar with them.
Another reason is because of the issue of division.
The hunting team led by Chen Sanye also included other veteran hunters in Jinsha Village.
If he joins the hunting team, with his seniority and the number of hunting dogs, he will naturally not be able to get a big share, and he may not make much money at all in one trip.
In this case, it is better to take Xu Sheng and share it equally with each other.
...
Thinking that he would visit Mr. Chen's house at noon, Li Shiqiang did not go to see Huang Yun this morning.
After helping out with the work at his family's new house for a while, when it was almost time, he took the red deer meat from home to Mr. Chen's house.
I had been to Mr. Chen’s house once before, but he didn’t see any people except dogs.
This time it was different. When he came outside Chen Sanye's house, he not only saw Chen Sanye in the yard, but also Chen Houde, the captain of the second team.
"coming?"
Mr. Chen Sanye in the yard gave a simple greeting and then shouted to the back room: "People are here, let's light the fire and cook."
A relatively young woman walked out of the house, took a look, and then went straight into the kitchen. She seemed to be the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, but she didn't even say hello, which was a bit strange.
Instead, Chen Houde next to him smiled and said, "Hey, Erwazi, I'm coming to your Mr. Chen's house as a guest, so why don't you bring some meat with you? They won't be short of meat even if they lack anything."
Just when Li Shiqiang was about to say something, Mr. Chen waved his hand and said with a smile: "I haven't eaten this red deer meat for a while, so I picked it up at the right time."
After saying that, he looked at the hunting dogs in the courtyard and said, "They have all gone into the mountains, so they shouldn't be afraid of dogs, right?"
The hunting dogs that go into the mountains are relatively wild.
Some hunters are afraid of hurting their wild animals. If there are no outsiders at home, they will not tie their dogs and let them run all over the yard.
Just like the hunting dogs in Chen Sanye's house, they were all full of energy and wandering around the yard. When they saw an outsider coming, they immediately ran over fiercely, staring at Li Shiqiang with eyes like looking at prey.
If ordinary people were stared at like this, they wouldn't even dare to move.
But Li Shiqiang was different. In his previous life, he led people around the mountains, hunting things everywhere. In this life, he had just killed yellow tigers, blind bears, and lynxes. How could he be afraid of a few hunting dogs?
And beside him, there was Xiaohua who was following him silently.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
When Li Shiqiang put his hand on the courtyard barrier and was about to come in, Xiaohua beside him immediately roared at the seven hunting dogs inside without fear.
Just when the group of hunting dogs behind the yard barrier were about to yell at each other, they suddenly heard a loud roar: "Get away!"
When the dogs looked up, they saw Li Shiqiang's eyes glaring angrily and his whole body exuding an "evil spirit".
In an instant, these dogs immediately stood up and turned in circles, making grunting sounds.
This is the sound of dogs expressing fear.
The reason why Li Shiqiang was so rude was because he saw that there would be no good feast at noon today.
When guests are coming to your door, no one would tie up their hunting dogs in advance.
Mr. Chen is acting like this just because he wants to test him.
Sure enough, seeing Li Shiqiang calm down their hunting dog with an angry roar, Master Chen finally showed a smile on his face: "Well, come in."
