Chapter 39 Isn’t he just kidding?
"Everyone get ready, we are going to the bus station now."
Zhou Yong said something to Cao Biao and the others, and Xu Jianmin walked over to him and asked, "What's going on?"
"Brother, I'll tell you when I get back."
Xu Jianmin nodded, walked past Zhou Yong and helped organize the items in the car.
Secretary Zhang looked at the items they were going to bring and said, "Don't bring any living things or fresh wild vegetables or mushrooms. There's no place to put them in the car..."
There are only two buses going to the county town every day, and each bus is overcrowded.
Cao Biao and others looked at Zhou Yong at the same time, waiting for him to speak.
Secretary Zhang saw this scene and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
He didn't expect that Zhou Yong, though young, had such cohesion.
None of them listened to the secretary's words and were actually waiting for Zhou Yong to give orders.
Secretary Zhang smiled and said, "Hurry up! If you dawdle any longer you'll miss the bus."
Cao Biao, Ma San and others did not move, their eyes wandering around as if they did not hear what Secretary Zhang said.
Zhou Yong saw their behavior and curled his lips. He said, "Let's follow Secretary Zhang's arrangements."
He had thought things through well before coming, but reality taught him another lesson because he ignored how crowded the buses were these days.
"If that's the case, there wouldn't be a need for so many people to go, right?"
This question was asked by Cao Biao.
Zhou Yong looked at Ma San and Liu Dazhuang and quickly made a choice: "Brother Cao, you come with me. They can take the other items back! When there is a chance, we brothers can go to the county town together..."
Every extra person means an extra expense. Even though the brigade will reimburse the bill, if the news gets back to the village, someone will definitely make a fuss about it.
With Secretary Zhang around, it would be even more difficult for Zhou Yong to abuse his power for personal gain.
Both Ma San and Liu Dazhuang knew what was going on, and they had no objection to Zhou Yong's arrangement.
Cao Biao carried a sack of dried mountain products and medicinal herbs and left with Secretary Zhou Yong and Zhang.
Xu Jianmin opened his mouth and wanted to say that he would take them to the bus station on his bicycle, but someone happened to be looking for him and interrupted him. By the time he finished his work, Zhou Yong and the other two were nowhere to be seen.
Ma San and Liu Dazhuang did not waste any time after Zhou Yong and his friends left. They packed up and returned to the village.
On the way back, Ma San said as he stepped onto the winding mountain road: "I wonder if Brother Zhou's trip will be smooth."
Liu Dazhuang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It will definitely go smoothly."
Ma San smiled and nodded: "Brother Liu, you are right. After the mountain is removed, it will be more convenient for people in our village to go in and out. Then I will buy a bicycle..."
Liu Dazhuang curled his lips and pushed the unicycle forward step by step: "Buy a bicycle? I think you'd better forget it. If you buy it, you can't ride it yourself, and it will definitely be occupied by your brother and sister-in-law..."
Ma San's ambitions instantly waned, and he muttered, "Brother Liu, you really know how to discourage me."
Liu Dazhuang glanced at him and said, "Did I say something wrong?"
He was not wrong, Ma San was just lamenting his miserable life.
Liu Dazhuang suddenly said, "Let's not talk about other things for now. Do you have money to buy a bicycle? If you have a bicycle, is it enough to buy a ticket? I really don't know what you think about all day long!"
Ma San was depressed. He said nothing and just kept on walking.
After walking for about ten minutes, Ma San's depressed mood disappeared and he healed himself.
He regained his lively and cheerful personality and chatted with the taciturn Liu Dazhuang.
"Brother Liu, my dream is to have enough food and not be hungry. What is your dream?"
Liu Dazhuang looked forward: "Your dream is also my dream."
Ma San curled his lips: "You are really good at perfunctory me."
Liu Dazhuang didn't give him a perfunctory answer and spoke from his heart.
He can’t even get enough to eat, so how can he have the mood to think about other dreams?
"Brother Liu, I really want to go outside and take a look. I don't know what it looks like outside."
Ma San couldn't help but reveal a look of longing, but Liu Dazhuang poured a bucket of cold water on him: "What do you expect to survive if you go outside? Are you going to get your neck pricked?"
He was able to join the public security brigade thanks to the relationship between his father and Cao Biao.
After leaving Huaixi Village, Ma San had no special skills and it would be difficult for him to survive.
Ma San: “…?”
He hated Liu Dazhuang's mouth because he always spoke the truth.
Ma San was so depressed that he ignored Liu Dazhuang and walked forward angrily.
After all, he is only in his twenties and has not experienced the hardships of society. His heart is as pure as a pool of water.
Liu Dazhuang looked at Ma San's angry back and smiled: "This kid always thinks of unrealistic things..."
After a while, Ma San healed himself and took turns pushing the unicycle with Liu Dazhuang.
Liu Dazhuang followed Ma San slowly, and a tiger's roar reached their ears.
When Ma San heard this, he stopped and listened with his ears perked up. Liu Dazhuang couldn't help but frown.
"Someone broke into the Tiger's chassis. Is this a life-threatening move?"
Normally, unless someone breaks into the tiger's cradle, the roar of a tiger is rarely heard during this time period.
Ma San licked his lips and said confidently: "It doesn't sound like it. It seems that the tiger is injured. Brother Liu, let's go back quickly, take the guns and go for a walk in the mountains. If we are lucky, we may meet the injured tiger..."
This guy is a good hunter and he improves everyone's food from time to time.
Liu Dazhuang shook his head when he heard this: "No, it's too dangerous for just the two of us. That's a tiger."
Ma San said, "You won't go wrong if you listen to me. Let's go back quickly."
Liu Dazhuang kept persuading him, but Ma San simply wouldn't listen.
Ma San quickened his pace, and Liu Dazhuang looked at him and sighed repeatedly.
He wished he could fly back and leave the winding mountain road. Ma San handed the wheelbarrow to Liu Dazhuang and ran towards the security brigade alone.
"Come back here and stop messing around."
Ma San replied to Liu Dazhuang while running: "Don't worry, I will be fine."
How could Liu Dazhuang feel at ease? He quickly pushed the wheelbarrow back, trying to stop Ma San from taking risks.
He hurried as fast as he could, but he was still a step behind.
Xing Laoqi looked at the panting Liu Dazhuang and asked, "What's wrong with all of you?"
Ma San rushed in with a shotgun and left. After a while, Liu Dazhuang came in panting, and Xing Laoqi became confused.
Liu Dazhuang bent over and held his thighs with both hands. He gasped and asked, "Where's Ma San?"
Xing Laoqi did not answer him, but asked: "Didn't you go to the commune with Zhou Yong and the team leader? Why are you two back?"
Liu Dazhuang briefly recounted the whole story and Xing Laoqi said "oh".
"All the stuff is in the yard. Let Li Ming check the number so that everyone can come and collect their belongings..."
This was what Zhou Yong told them. After all, it was agreed to be a loan, and since they did not take the items to the county town, they should be returned to the villagers.
Xing Laoqi nodded and told others to handle the matter: "Something is wrong. It's just a small matter. It's not like you and Ma Sanru are being chased by wolves!"
Liu Dazhuang's eyes widened and he finally remembered why he was in such a hurry to go back.
"We heard a tiger roar on the way back. Ma San went to fight the tiger..."
Xing Laoqi opened his mouth and said, "Isn't he just fooling around?"
