Chen Weiguo and Liu Hongxia were childhood sweethearts and had feelings for each other, so how could they be persuaded by a few words from outsiders?
In his heart, Liu Hongxia was a good girl, it was just that her family was a bit poor, so he could just have less contact with her in the future.
“Wei Guo, I’m not trying to criticize you, but you’re oversimplifying things.”
There's an old saying: even when catching a pig, you have to check the pen first. You're getting married, so the behavior of the bride's family will have a huge impact on your future wife and your life together.
If you take my advice, think it over calmly.
"Your parents raised you with great difficulty, and you're the eldest child. They can't possibly spend a fortune to get you married, only for you to then move out and abandon the family, can they?"
Sheng Xiping didn't want to give up easily, so he could only offer a few more words of advice. Whether Chen Weiguo listened or not was up to him.
Upon hearing this, Chen Weiguo opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word for a long time. In the end, he could only let out a long sigh.
"Sigh, let's talk about this later."
How could a relationship built up over many years be so easily given up? Chen Weiguo couldn't bear to.
Sheng Xiping, Gao Haining, Wang Jianshe, and the others exchanged glances, shrugged, and spread their hands.
As friends, they said everything they could and offered all the advice they could. Whether Chen Weiguo listened or not was up to him.
If you regret it later, just don't bring it up with them.
"Let's go home. We'll get up early tomorrow and go hunting in the mountains together."
Sheng Xiping pulled Gao Haining and the others along, and the group picked up the sacks on their backs, came out of the woods, and went home.
In the Changbai Mountain area, snow usually falls in late October or early November.
Winter production begins after the first snowfall when the ground freezes and continues until the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month before the Lunar New Year holiday when workers return to the mountains.
Therefore, forestry workers usually choose to hold weddings after the autumn harvest, in mid-to-late October, when the weather is just right, neither too hot nor too cold.
Wang Jianshe chose October 25th for his wedding, which was the 21st day of the ninth lunar month.
The weather is a bit different this year.
At the end of September, a severe frost caused the temperature to drop, and everything on the mountain and in the fields, from trees to vegetables, froze to death.
I was hoping it would get cold early this year and snow early, but after the frost, the temperature rose, and it only rained once. The temperature has remained quite high and very warm.
With such rare good weather, the wild animals in the mountains seized this last opportunity to eat voraciously and accumulate fat.
Once it snows, it becomes difficult to find food.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Sheng Xiping led Chen Weiguo, Gao Haining, Sheng Xi'an, and others, along with their five dogs, into the mountains to hunt.
There wasn't much rain this autumn, and the withered grass and yellow leaves on the mountains were quite dry. When people or animals stepped on them, they would make a rustling sound.
In the mouths of hunters, this is called the rustling leaf.
The leaves are hard to catch; the animals in the mountains are very clever. As soon as they hear a noise from afar, they get up and run away.
Therefore, you should go out a little earlier to bang the leaves, while the white frost on the withered grass and leaves is melting, and the leaves are moist and soft, making a softer sound.
If it's around 10 o'clock, the moisture will have evaporated in the sun, and when someone steps on it, it will make a splattering sound, which won't work.
Sheng Xiping and his group of six, along with five dogs and their little tiger cub Huahua, had entered the mountains long ago.
Ever since Hua Hua went to catch badgers, this little guy has been restless at home. No matter day or night, as long as Sheng Xiping goes out, it makes a fuss about wanting to follow.
If Sheng Xiping takes the dog out, then needless to say, Hua Hua will be howling and yelping as she wants to go out.
Having no other choice, Sheng Xiping could only take the little guy along, hoping to give him some experience along the way.
The main purpose of this trip into the mountains was to prepare a wedding banquet for Wang Jianshe, with wild boar being the preferred prey.
So Sheng Xiping led everyone straight to the Wild Boar Forest in the southwest of the forest farm.
The name Wild Boar Forest was given to the place by everyone.
The reason is simple: that was the place where Sheng Xiping led his men to hunt dozens of wild boars in the spring.
There are many broad-leaved trees such as oak and walnut trees in that area. Every autumn, a thick layer of nuts such as walnuts and jujubes will fall on the ground, which will attract many wild boars to forage there.
Ever since the spring hunt, people have called that forest the Wild Boar Forest.
Sheng Xiping guessed that there were many walnut trees over there, and wild boars would definitely be foraging for food at this time of year, so he led his men straight to the Wild Boar Forest.
Unexpectedly, after the group had gone into the forest for about five or six miles, the little tiger Hua Hua suddenly darted out.
Then, Erlang Shen spoke up, and the leopard, Black General, and the others barked as well.
Sheng Xiping knew there must be some prey nearby, so he let out the rope.
Five dogs and a tiger cub split into two groups and ran towards the ridge ahead.
"Let's go, let's follow them and take a look." Sheng Xiping led the group, quickly following behind.
Erlang Shen and his companions hadn't been into the mountains for a while, so they ran around freely, shouting as they went.
Little Tiger Huahua wasn't with Erlang Shen and the others; the little guy went in a circle and ran from the other side.
It was still small and couldn't match the speed of an adult tiger, but it left Erlang Shen's dogs far behind.
On the hillside ahead, there were seven or eight wild boars lying around.
Generally speaking, people run baskets to return to the group before or after snowfall, but it's not quite time yet.
This group of pigs consists of two old sows, three piglets that were born a year ago, and three yellow-haired piglets.
The pigs ate on this hillside until dark yesterday, and they were all so full that they were sleeping soundly under the big tree.
If no one bothers me, I won't be able to get up until around 10 o'clock, so I can take a diaper change and eat.
As a result, I was woken up by the dogs around eight o'clock.
Upon hearing the commotion, the two sows immediately began to make whimpering noises, waking up their daughter and son, who then got up and ran away.
