Sheng Xinhua was clearly unconvinced, muttering to himself.
"Get lost, do you think you can be compared to me back then?"
"Little brat, stop thinking about those things. You think guns are good things? They're weapons, and they can hurt people if you're not careful." Sheng Xiping glared at his son, exasperated.
"Dad, take our gun to the breeding farm later, don't leave it at home."
"That little rascal has a lot of tricks up his sleeve every day. We'd better keep an eye on him and he might accidentally set off a gun." Sheng Xiping turned to Sheng Liancheng and said.
The semi-automatic rifle that Sheng Xiping used for hunting belonged to the forestry station's security department. After he stopped hunting, he returned the rifle.
But there was still a hoe at home, which Qin Qiuyan used to use. After Sheng Xiping learned to hunt, Qin Qiuyan gave it to him.
The gun had always been in the Sheng family's house, hanging on the wall.
Sheng Xiping was a little worried. What if his little rascal secretly played with a gun one day when no one was looking?
"Oh, I sent that gun to the farm a long time ago, I wasn't home." Sheng Liancheng glanced at his eldest grandson, too embarrassed to complain.
During summer vacation, Sheng Xinhua and Sheng Xinyu went back to the forest farm to stay. The two boys were pondering the gun when Sheng Liancheng happened to see them.
Startled, Sheng Liancheng quickly sent the gun to the breeding farm; he dared not leave it at home.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiping nodded, "Okay, then I'm relieved. That brat is always messing around, I'm afraid he'll cause trouble."
Sheng Xinhua looked unconvinced after hearing his grandfather and father's words, pouted, and went off to play with the binoculars.
Sheng Xiping continued to rummage through his pockets: Russian chocolates, candies, caviar, milk powder, mink hats, amber, crystal, and gold jewelry.
These are all things we brought back from the Russians when we went to trade on the big island.
Some things are not recognized by the locals, so Sheng Xiping would just trade them for wine or sausages.
"Here are some candy and chocolate. Two pieces each. Don't eat too much, or your teeth will hurt."
Seeing that the children's eyes were wide open, Sheng Xiping grabbed some candy and chocolate for them.
"Wife, sister-in-law, come and see if there's anything you like among these things. Pick a few at random."
Sheng Xiping pointed to the amber, crystal, and gold jewelry and let Zhou Qinglan and the others choose.
Zhou Qinglan and her two sisters-in-law were also quite curious, so they went over to look at the pile of things.
Most women are powerless against shiny things; they fall in love with them at first sight.
At first, Wu Yuhua and Feng Shuyan were a little embarrassed.
Later, when they heard from Sheng Xiping that these items were obtained by exchanging liquor and canned goods and that they hadn't spent much money, they felt relieved enough to start picking out things.
