Then he stepped forward, took the venison, and carried it to the kitchen.
Wen Qiao poured a cup of chrysanthemum tea for Deputy Division Commander Sun.
The two sat in the living room, one old and one young, chatting.
“This year the snow is heavy, making hunting difficult. In previous years, I would take my hunting rifle to hunt every winter, but in recent years the regulations have been stricter, and hunting without permission is not allowed. People can only catch rabbits and pheasants.”
"However, the venison here today wasn't poached by me. It's from a deer raised by a brigade in a village down below. Domesticated deer have more tender meat, but it's not easy to sell outside."
Wen Qiao asked curiously, "There are even deer farms?"
Deputy Division Commander Sun: "Only one brigade raises them, so they're hard to sell. It's not as good as raising chickens, ducks, and rabbits."
Just then, Director Li emerged from the Shen family's bedroom with a livid face.
When Deputy Division Commander Sun saw Director Li come out, he stiffened his neck and continued talking to Wen Qiao, without even glancing at Director Li.
Director Li stormed off in anger.
Deputy Division Commander Sun then snorted.
"They don't want to do anything, yet they want this old man to be on duty at the border. I'm in charge of logistics, but the young people don't do anything and they rely entirely on this old man..."
Wen Qiao asked, "What does Director Li do?"
Wen Qiao thought that Director Li was just lazy and didn't want to do anything.
Suddenly, Shen Jichuan from inside the house spoke.
"He wants to take a vacation, a month-long one."
Wen Qiao got up and walked towards the bedroom door, and Deputy Division Commander Sun also got up.
At fifty-something years old, it's actually the prime of life to strive and work hard, but he acts like an old man all day long.
He said he was an old man, but his posture was ramrod straight.
"Deputy Division Commander Shen, what did you just say? Who wants to take leave? Director Li, his whole family is here, what would he do on leave?"
Shen Jichuan glanced at Deputy Division Commander Sun.
"He didn't say that, he just said he wanted to take a vacation to rest for a while and go out to see the world..."
What are you looking at?
Wen Qiao wondered if Director Li was going to send Yu Mengxian away from the Northwest and back to Beicheng.
Wen Qiao naturally didn't ask this question in front of Deputy Division Commander Sun.
Shen Jichuan was very dissatisfied with Deputy Division Commander Sun, who came to his home to freeload.
Shen Jichuan disliked the fact that someone had come to his home, especially a strange man.
I feel uncomfortable, not at all.
Especially since his wife was so young, and men came to the house while he was lying in bed.
Deputy Division Commander Sun chuckled.
"This Director Li is full of petty schemes; just ignore him."
Shen Jichuan hummed in agreement.
Wen Qiao looked at Deputy Division Commander Sun and asked a question.
"Deputy Division Commander Sun, are you thinking of having lunch or dinner? Once it's ready, I'll have Sister Su deliver it to your home."
Deputy Division Commander Sun said, "The meat has arrived. You can decide how to cook it, have one in the morning and one in the afternoon."
He was asking about Wen Qiao, but actually he just wanted to eat her.
Wen Qiao did not refuse.
"Okay, just go home and wait. Don't ask me what I'm going to cook, just eat whatever I make."
Deputy Division Commander Sun chuckled, "I love dealing with straightforward people like you."
"Alright, I'll head back now."
Deputy Division Commander Sun wasn't one to dawdle; he left as soon as he finished speaking.
When he left, he took the salted peanuts that were fried on the living room table with him.
Su Mei couldn't help but say something.
"This old commander doesn't act like a commander at all. How come he loves to eat so much?"
Wen Qiao smiled and said, "So what kind of person do you think the leader should be?"
Su Mei said, "It should be Mr. Shen, right? He's very dignified, and you can't help but feel respect for him."
Wen Qiao smiled and didn't say anything more.
