Chapter 185 Engagement

This, this, this... wild goats are not available everywhere, so we have to go deep into the mountains.

"Captain, please come to my house for dinner this afternoon."

Lin Zhen said with pride: "Song Zhiqing can even kill a wild boar, but this wild goat is not as good as a wild boar."

Having said that, the wild boar came down the mountain on its own, but you have to go inside the mountains to find the wild goat, and these creatures are much more agile and difficult to find than wild boars.

Really... I am always shocked by Song Zhiqing.

If he knew that Song Wei had fought with an adult tiger while hunting wild goats, he would probably be even more shocked.

However, Lin Zhen and Song Wei didn't say anything about this.

After calming down, the captain told them about Mr. Ji.

"Mr. Ji's medical skills are excellent. He saved the old man who was on the verge of death. It's really a waste of his skills to live in the cowshed all the time."

So the captain decided to be more shameless and cry and beg a few more times.

And this was also the condition he promised to Lin Zhen.

"I will go to the commune to talk to the leaders tomorrow. Many children in our village are sick. We can't keep putting it off like this."

Hearing what he said, Lin Zhen was satisfied.

The reason why he helped Mr. Ji so much was not only because Mr. Ji cured his leg.

Also, if it weren't for Mr. Ji's help, his mother might have died before giving birth to Heidan.

He is a man who remembers grudges and also remembers favors.

Before leaving, the captain took a look at the wild goat. It was really big.

This Song Zhiqing is really capable.

He didn't say anything like the wild goats were from the mountains and belonged to everyone and should be confiscated.

It’s true that he is the captain of the peace brigade, but he also has his own family and selfish motives.

If his family had come across such a big wild goat, he would have hidden it from others and eaten it quietly among his family.

Those that were confiscated were all the big ones that had already been seen. Only those that were fought by everyone together were divided among the entire team.

"Hide well, don't get discovered."

When leaving, the captain patted Lin Zhen on the shoulder.

Lin Zhen nodded and forced a piece of wild goat meat weighing about two kilograms into his mouth.

"The captain asked the aunts to come to my house to eat mutton. I will make some mutton soup today."

The captain waved his hand and said, "We have already taken such a big piece of mutton. It would be shameless to eat more."

He felt uneasy just holding this piece of meat.

It seems that I need to work harder on the matter of Mr. Ji, otherwise I will be unworthy of the meat.

They had a quiet and delicious meal of mutton soup, which also contained bamboo fungus that Song Wei had picked up and dried and preserved. It tasted very delicious and was very satisfying to eat in such weather.

The two wolf cubs buried their heads in eating. After finishing the mutton soup with steamed buns, they went to gnaw on the mutton bones.

The fierce look on his face while eating clearly resembles a wolf.

Animals grow very fast, and now Heidan can only hold one of the two wolf cubs.

After dinner, Song Wei returned to the Youth League Home, while Lin Zhen went to the cowshed with a bowl of mutton soup and steamed buns.

On this day, the three people in the cowshed also ate a bowl of steamed buns with mutton offal soup.

They already had a very good relationship with Lin Zhen, but it was all done in secret, and they had never met in front of outsiders.

The vegetables in the greenhouse are growing well. Even the bok choy, lettuce, and cabbage that do not bear fruit are now edible.

Seeing the harvest, everyone seemed to see the hope of making money, and the smiles on the faces of those who invested money became more and more obvious.

…………

The twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month is Little New Year.

This was Song Wei's first Little New Year after coming into this world, and it was also the day she and Lin Zhen got engaged.

There is no need to make such a big fuss about an engagement. Just notify close relatives and invite them to your house for a meal.

Lin Zhen notified the captain's family and his great-grandmother's family.

Song Wei also invited all the educated youth in the Youth League Institute except Luo Yecheng.

She is so disrespectful. If Xu Lai Di was still alive, she would not invite Xu Lai Di either.

Luo Yecheng is now a little silent, and his whole body looks eerie, especially the way he looks at people.

But Song Wei didn't care, as long as this person didn't provoke her.

On this day, Lin Zhen's house was very lively and the dishes prepared were very rich, including pork and mutton.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The mutton is the meat from the goat, but today just one leg of lamb is enough.

Everyone is a hardworking person. Except for the old people who sit by the fire in the main room, eat nuts and melon seeds and chat, the women go to the kitchen to work, while the men chop wood and help prepare pork, mutton and the like.

The children were fed handfuls of candy by Song Wei and were now happily playing with the sika deer and two wolf cubs in the yard.

In short, I have no time to spare.

While it was bustling here, Mrs. Lin's house was unusually deserted and the atmosphere was a little subtle.

Old man Lin kept smoking his pipe, and from time to time he stretched his neck to look outside the door.

They all knew that Lin Zhen and Song Wei were getting engaged today, and Old Man Lin had been waiting.

He felt that no matter how bad their relationship was, he, their grandfather, had to be invited to attend important events like engagement and marriage.

Old Mrs. Lin was also waiting, and she thought the same thing.

She also wanted to take this opportunity to have a good talk with Lin Zhen. She had found out that Lin Zhen was a battalion commander before he retired from the army, which was a high-ranking official.

Those who retired due to injuries received compensation, and their superiors even prepared jobs for them.

She wanted to talk to Lin Zhen about the compensation and job. She was Lin Zhen's biological grandmother, so she must have a share of the compensation. And the job. Her eldest daughter-in-law was right. Since his leg was injured, the job would be put aside anyway. Why couldn't she give it to her precious grandson?

But now, it was almost time for dinner, and neither Lin Zhen nor Heidan came.

"Mom, I found out everything. That little bastard Lin Zhen invited his uncle's family and the captain's family, but he didn't come to our house."

Deng Chunhua came running over panting. She was a little anxious. If her mother-in-law didn't go over, how could she talk to Lin Zhen about work?

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Lin slammed the table and said, "This is outrageous. For such a big thing as an engagement, Lin Zhen didn't even send anyone to inform my grandparents' family, but instead invited all the irrelevant people over. What does he mean by that?!"

Deng Chunhua swallowed her saliva and said, "I went over to take a look. They had a pretty grand wedding for an engagement. I could smell meat, and there was more than one kind."

The smell was so delicious that she almost couldn't help but go in, but thinking about Lin Zhen and Song Wei's fists, she didn't dare.

That's why she ran so fast to find her parents-in-law, just because she wanted to get there quickly, otherwise the meat would be eaten up.

Old Mrs. Lin stood up immediately: "We will go there by ourselves."

She also wanted to eat meat. This unfilial prodigal son didn't even call his grandparents when eating meat, but gave it to outsiders.

Eat the inside and take the outside.

Old Man Lin smoked his cigarette without saying a word. It was obvious that he wanted to go over as well.

Meat! They haven’t tasted meat in their family for a long time.
