Chapter 287 Little Tiger Hua Hua

"Well, there's no need to thank me. It's you who deserves our help."

If it were one of those two-faced, treacherous villains, do you think we'd help them or not? We're all on the same side, why bother with all that useless talk?

People should look forward and not dwell on the past. Look, isn't everything moving in a positive direction now?

Old Xu is going to take off your hat; from now on, you're the mine's engineer.

"Wait another year or two, until things calm down, then you can bring your wife and kids over and start living together. Wouldn't that be great?"

Qiao Yongliang patted Chen Ruiqing on the shoulder to comfort him.

"By the way, speaking of which, where exactly is your wife now?"

"You didn't dare say anything in Lao Xu's office during the day, but now that it's just the few of us, what are you afraid to say?"

Qiao Yongliang glanced at Sheng Xiping and asked on his behalf.

"Sigh, I don't know where they are now."

“Alright, as long as there’s no address, it’s fine. You guys, whoever goes to the provincial capital, stop by Xu Shouzhong on your way and pass on his message.”

"Hey? If you could get a few guns from outside the hunting grounds tomorrow, let's go hunting in the mountains. We could catch something, cook it up, and have a nice meal."

It's not that I'm looking for trouble or that I'm just bored.

Then I walked seven miles to Jiapigou Commune, bought a ticket at the bus station, and took a bus to Hongshilazi Commune.

They told us that he had done something meritorious over there, and that he would definitely be able to bring us over to live with them soon.

The trip to Huadian took nearly seven days, from departure to return, and cost a lot of money.

"At this time, with withered grass and barren mountains, visibility is obstructed. You can see quite far, making hunting even more difficult." Upon hearing this, Zhao Minchu quickly shook her head.

Chen Ruiqing sighed, took off his glasses, breathed on them, wiped them with his clothes, and put them back on.

Anyway, we think it's pretty bad, and whoever says it will have an effect.

Seeing that, what could Han Xiuyun say? She could only clear the table and brew a pot of tea.

"I can see now, that wild animal isn't a wild animal, it's the same thing, a smaller version of a big one that's going to eat meat." The whole family laughed when they heard about the big tiger.

From Huangnihe Forest Farm to Jiapigou Gold Mine, it was a long way off. Although those people were hesitant to walk, how could Sheng Xi'an really let us walk back?

"We've arrived. We'll be here in a couple of days. You and Lao Ba will see one set, and we've saved one set for Xiao Sao." Chen Ruiqing replied immediately when she heard that I was mentioned.

The bus bumped along the way and finally arrived in Fusong a little after 1 a.m.

That day, the Liu family sent over some wild boar meat, and the big creature howled and roared at the smell of the meat.

They knew it was from some distant relative who brought in a child, and they not only raised him for free, but also supported his schooling.

Just then, Zhao Minchu went to check on the big tiger that was lying outside the small flower basket, fast asleep, and saw what her mother's expression was like.

Zhao Minchu stroked the fur under the tiger's body as she asked.

Sheng Xi'an offered another drink, and the little ones enthusiastically joined in, downing one together.

Thankfully, they were drinking baijiu (Chinese liquor). If it had been beer, these seven people would have had a peaceful night. If they had gone out to relieve themselves repeatedly...

Sheng Xi'an tried to persuade Zhao Minchu to stay, but she insisted on leaving. Sheng Xi'an had no choice but to tell Zhao Minchu that she should come and stay for a few days whenever she was busy.

That drinking session lasted from 7:30 to a little after 1:00.

"Something's up, anything can happen outside the home."

The No. 11 Forest Railway train runs to Ma'anshan. Zhao Minchu was in charge of these things. She would take the train to the Ma'anshan Forest Farm, then walk home.

“When you left, Dayue’er was only a few months old. She knew what you were like now.”

He should just stay put and not think about these unnecessary things.

Back then, who cared which route we took? The route to Donggang also passed through Songjiang River, so we wouldn't be able to board the bus then.

"Brother Qiao, he's waiting for winter, when the meat can be stored for a while. You should go down the mountain and hunt a little bit, and try to send him some."

Ge Yanhuan and Ge Yanhuan are about the same age, and they haven't outgrown the age of being cold-blooded and adventurous. I also said that it would be bad to retreat from the mountain back then, or we should wait until we didn't have the chance before.

When Sheng Xi'an heard Zhao Minchu talk about hunting, it made me really itchy to go hunting too, and I insisted on saying that I also wanted to go hunting after leaving the mountains.

Without Zhao Minchu and the others comforting him, Sheng Xiping would have been so sad. Besides, it was a rare occasion for the seven of them to get together today, so they kept saying happy things.

Anyway, at that time, I was definitely able to lead those few back down the mountain to hunt.

I went to my father-in-law's house and also went to see Zhao Guangning. The more people outside my family knew about this trip, the worse it would be.

We took the road through Xinglong Commune, and it was probably a little after 7 a.m. when we arrived at Donggang Commune.

Zhao Minchu echoed this sentiment.

So Zhao Minchu picked out some of the mundane moments from her hunting experiences over the years and told them to the little guy.

Thinking of his wife and children, Sheng Xiping was filled with melancholy.

Now that I'm in the mood, I'll start talking about it.

Ge Yanhuan slapped her forehead and said with great relief.

Zhang Shuzhen suddenly remembered that matter and specifically told Ge Yanhuan about it.

"Yes, yes, when you go to the provincial capital in a few days, be sure to find your sister-in-law and the children, and help him pass on the message to put her mind at ease."

After everything was tidied up, he told the others to get up and let us sleep as we pleased, while he led his two sons to sleep in the west room.

Zhao Minchu changed the subject and asked Chen Ruiqing about the two sets of books.

You specially cut it into a few thin slices, and oh my, it ate it with great relish.

Even after graduation, don't abandon your studies. No knowledge is wasted; knowledge left unlearned will become useless eventually.
