Chapter 119 Night Exploration
As a son-in-law, Yan Jiuru, who was of the younger generation, didn’t get the turn to hold the knife, so he consciously followed and helped.
Uncle Guo Er caught a fish in no time.
Even the black film inside, the blood in the belly, the gills and everything else were cleaned out, and even the fishy line on the back of the fish was pulled out!
"Second uncle, your technique is quite professional!" Yan Jiuru praised generously.
Uncle Guo Er said with a smile, "Of course we are. Our ancestors have relied on fishing and hunting for their livelihood."
Are you from the E ethnic group?
Yan Jiuru became interested, as this was a rare ethnic minority.
He really hadn't paid much attention to it before, or rather, he hadn't had the opportunity to come into contact with it much.
When he got married, he was extremely busy as a groom and had no time to care about much except his wife. Moreover, his memory had not yet awakened at that time, so he naturally didn't think much about it.
Judging from my second uncle's skills, fishing and hunting must be a daily routine for him.
"Do you guys still make a living by farming?"
"How can we farm?"
The second uncle cleaned up the last fish and handed it to Yan Jiuru, then rinsed his knife with clean water. "We were given land right after liberation, but we couldn't learn how to fish. Later, we were allowed to fish and hunt."
The second uncle cleaned the knife, looked at it again and again, and praised: "Your father-in-law's knife is very good, better than the one I have."
Yan Jiuru raised his eyebrows: This knife of his father-in-law was a trophy captured after he killed a Japanese lieutenant. It was made of high-quality Japanese steel and there were Japanese characters on it.
My second uncle pointed at the writing and said, "My sword has writing on it too. It looks similar to mine. The only difference is that the steel edge is not as good, and the blade is not as long."
"Oh, can I ask where my second uncle got it?"
This is Japanese craftsmanship, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can have. Even the Japanese must be at a certain level.
"I picked it up from the mountains a few years ago."
Yan Jiuru: He wants to pick up some too...
Yan Jiuru washed the fish and threw it into the basin, then hurried after his second uncle and told him the story of picking up the knife.
***
While eating, Chen Yin and Yan Jiuru finally found out why the two aunts they rarely saw came back to their parents' home.
People heard from somewhere that he and his wife had become very successful, so they wanted to contact the younger generation in their family to find some ways for them.
It was my aunt who spoke.
She glanced at Chen Yin and Yan Jiuru with drooping eyes: "My niece has made it big. She went to university in Yancheng and didn't even tell us, her aunt. Is she afraid that we will take advantage of her or what?"
Chen Yin pursed her lips and said nothing.
This is the bad thing about being younger than her. Even if you are right, you can't argue. You can only listen and not say anything. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you might get criticized.
Secretary Chen and Tian Xiaolian also looked displeased.
It was New Year’s Day, and my mother was still sitting there, so they just endured it for the time being.
Yan Jiuru glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "Look at what my aunt said. We are poor students now. We have to rely on government subsidies for food. We have no power, so what can we borrow?"
"We didn't take it as a big deal and only told a few real relatives." The implication is that you are not real relatives of my family, so you are just flattering yourself.
He pretended to sigh, "We're overthinking it. The round-trip fare alone costs tens of dollars, and we have to pay a gift when we get there. If we don't accept it, it'll seem like we're looking down on someone."
Gifts are very generous in Yancheng. Even neighbors have to give one or two dollars as gifts, let alone relatives.
My grandfather is thinking about how hard it is for our relatives, and whether they can save a little."
Aunt Yan: Who said it was a gift? Didn’t it mean borrowing the light?
But before she could open her mouth, her uncle kicked her in the foot.
The eldest aunt glanced at the two of them and said nothing.
The second aunt looked at the eldest aunt, then at Yan Jiuru and Chen Yin, and said nothing.
There was a moment of awkwardness at the dinner table.
***
After all, she is Chen Yin's relative, so Yan Jiuru has to give face to Chen Yin no matter what.
He raised his glass and said with a smile, "We are just in college now, and it will take several years for us to graduate. We can't predict what will happen in the future.
Don’t think that farming is not as good as studying now. Who knows when things will turn around?
My grandfather even came back from Yancheng specifically to farm."
After Yan Jiuru finished speaking, he raised his wine glass and said to the two aunts, "This matter is due to our Yan family's inconsiderateness. This glass of wine is my apology to you aunts."
After saying that, he drank it in one gulp.
Such good wine, it would be a waste if you don’t drink a few glasses.
Yan Jiuru filled his glass again and said, "We are young and not in charge of the family. When we go back today, I will tell grandpa that if there is anything happening at home, we must inform the eldest and second aunts.
As for relatives, it doesn’t matter how much the gift is, the key is to interact with each other, right?”
The Yan family and Chen Yin's family are relatives, so it is normal for them to have close interactions with each other, but Chen Yin's aunt's family is a bit far away.
Whether to walk around or not depends on whether Chen Yin is close to them.
Grandma Chen put down her chopsticks heavily and squeaked.
"Over the years, I haven't seen you come back to see me, your dear mother, but you are thinking about your relatives who live a few meters away."
"You don't even visit your own family, and you expect your niece's in-laws to visit you? You just dream of a pie in the sky all day long!
Why don't you just look up and open your mouth and wait for God to drop some cakes for you?"
Chen Yin chuckled, quickly covered her mouth and lowered her head.
Aunt Chen curled her lips and muttered, "Why aren't my niece's in-laws relatives anymore..."
Before he could finish his words, he was hit on the foot again.
"Stop kicking me! What are you kicking me for? I'm wearing new shoes!" Aunt Chen exploded, slamming her chopsticks and yelling, "What's the matter? You don't allow me to talk?!"
The old lady pointed outside the door and said, "You can't even stop eating. Go to the kitchen and eat tomorrow!"
Something that is not suitable for the dinner table!
This dinner with my mother ended in a bad mood.
However, the two aunts did not leave, but stayed for another day or two.
***
When we returned from Chen's house, it was already late.
The children were so tired after playing all day that they went to bed early.
Chen Yin was quite open-minded and her mood was not affected much.
She sat on a small stool, washing the children's dirty clothes while talking to Yan Jiuru.
"What were you talking about with my second uncle so excitedly today?"
But she knows her partner well. Although he can talk to anyone, he is actually very noble and ordinary people are not in his eyes.
The two of them said it was so warm, which was beyond her expectation.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Yan Jiuru also smiled and said, "Speaking of our father's fish-killing knife, my second uncle said he has a similar one. I said that one day when I have time, I should go fishing or hunting with my second uncle to broaden my horizons."
Her father's knife has a history. Nan Zheng wanted it, but her father didn't give it to her.
Something similar to this knife...
Chen Yin stared at him for a long moment, then said, "Oh," and said, "Be careful then."
Yan Jiuru washed the diaper in his hand, reached out and gently twisted Chen Yin's nose, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
"Disgusting! Your hands smell like shit and urine!" Chen Yin turned her head away in disgust.
The Demon Lord who was rubbing the diaper with his hands: "I didn't even feel disgusted when I washed it..."
Chen Yin rolled her eyes, threw two newly soiled diapers into his basin, pulled her own basin away, and said with a wicked smile: "If you don't mind, then enjoy it slowly~"
Yan Jiuru carefully pulled open a corner of the diaper, and a lump of soft gold with a sour smell came into his nose!
"Hmm~"
I almost vomited the dinner I just had!
"You little girl, you dare to lay a mine for your brother? Just wait and see how I deal with you!"
The two of them started laughing and joking as they chased each other.
In another room, Yan Niang was sorting out the favors she had done in the past few days.
He glanced outside and muttered softly, "These two are still not grown up. They are three kids and still haven't done anything serious~"
***
The two little kids were placed on the south kang in the main room to crawl and play.
The old lady was watching from the side.
They have just developed new skills and are still not very proficient in climbing, so there is basically no need to worry too much.
Chen Yin went to pack up the children's things and prepare to leave.
The two little crickets got tired after a while and simply lay down to rest.
After waiting for a while and seeing that no one paid any attention to them, he couldn't help but get anxious. He turned over and pointed at the door and shouted "Yi Yi" and "Oh Oh".
Grandma Yan smiled and said, "You've been walking around quite a lot these past few days. You all know that I have to go out and visit people~"
Yan Jiuru came out of the back room with Zhuangzhuang, carrying a basket of things, and muttered, "They are becoming more and more dishonest. I really don't want to take them with me. It's too tiring."
He gave him a white look and retorted, "It's good for children to be lively. It means we are healthy and strong, right?"
Yan Jiuru hehe, now the stinky poop of the two little ones looks like gold in his eyes. Well, forget it, don’t think about it anymore.
"Yin Yin, are you ready? Let's go!" He shouted towards the inner room.
"I'm coming, I'm coming! Don't rush me!"
Grandma Yan helped check the gifts: "Mother, uncle, please don't be rude."
"My mother cleaned it up, so it shouldn't be traceable."
"Give a few extra red envelopes."
"Yeah, I brought it."
Because of yesterday's emergency, they specially packed a few extra one-cent coins today and also pocketed a handful of zero-cent coins.
***
"Oh, uncle, I'm so old!" Chen Yin covered her pockets and refused to take the red envelope given by her uncle.
But I couldn't refuse the gift for my three children.
However, they will also bleed heavily today.
Because the Tian family has six cousins, they all came back with their children today!
There are more than ten of them, ranging from a few months old to more than ten years old!
I can’t even recognize Chen Yin!
"Hey, this is Xiaohua from my second brother's house, right? She's grown this big already? Here, use it to buy some candy."
"This is Xiaowei, come and take it!"
. . . . . .
Yan Jiuru and his father-in-law found an excuse to stroll around the village, and naturally passed by the place circled by the tracking talisman yesterday.
Yan Jiuru stopped, took out a pack of cigarettes and asked his father-in-law to light one.
"The one across from you on the left has the word 'Fu' on the door crookedly pasted on it."
Secretary Chen glanced at him, took two deep puffs of his cigarette, and exhaled the smoke. "Let's go. We'll talk on the way."
***
On the third night of the Lunar New Year, the moon is not visible.
On the dark and silent village road, a black shadow completely blended into the night and rushed towards Hexi Village.
More than ten minutes later, Yan Jiuru stood outside the door of that house.
He flicked his finger, and an invisible net enveloped all living things inside and outside the house, completely isolating them from the outside world. They could not see or hear, and fell into a deep sleep.
Yan Jiuru stepped into the door in the darkness.
He lifted up a corner of the quilt and waited to see the suspect's bandaged ankle.
Tsk tsk!
I have to say, these guys are really brave. The iron clamp has serrations, right?!
It crushed an adult's ankle bones.
No wonder this guy can only do bad things on the morning of New Year's Day.
Yan Jiuru tapped the man's head with his finger. A moment later, the man's head tilted and he fainted completely.
***
Yan Jiuru ignored him and went to search for physical evidence first.
He stood in the room with his eyes slightly closed, opened them after a moment, walked over and moved a clock, knocked on the wall with his fingers, took out a dagger and pried open a somewhat loose brick.
He ignored the money and bills hidden inside, but reached in and felt around.
"Click!" With a light sound, a wardrobe not far away quietly slid open to both sides, revealing a dark hole underneath.
This is not an ordinary family’s vegetable cellar!
Yan Jiuru was a skilled and courageous man. After throwing a talisman down, he went down himself.
Behind him, the wardrobe closed quietly again, and there was no sign that it had been moved.
