Meng Tao said: "I just brought some medicines and supplements suitable for the elderly. The supplements should be given to my great aunt every day. These medicines have instructions. If you don't understand, you can ask the village doctor to teach you how to take them. Once she is well and has energy and spirit, she will definitely be willing to go to the hospital to treat her eyes."

The two cousins ​​smiled and nodded in agreement.

In the next two days, Shen Yu, Meng Tao and Xiao Yunhai, a family of three, mingled in Hejia Village and Guanjia Village, and finally got to know their relatives. Zhu Chunlin went to the town and brought Xiao Wangcai with him. It was not that he wanted to bring him, but Xiao Wangcai broke free from the leash and insisted on following him. Meng Zhehan knew that Xiao Wangcai missed Xiao Yunhai too much, so he let him lead the way.

Zhu Chunlin told Shen Yumengtao: Xu Yulin and Liu Jianye found their childhood friends, two of whom were retired soldiers. Their comrades-in-arms' home was in a mountain village 200 miles away. They found that there were tigers and bears hurting people there, so they gathered people and formed a team to go hunting.

Meng Zhehan, Xu Yulin and Liu Jianye brothers were going, so they asked Zhu Chunlin to tell Shen Yu and Meng Tao that they could wait for them in Hongsong Town or return to the provincial capital first.

Hunting, tigers, bears and other animals running in the dense primeval forest, that scene... Meng Tao thought of the CCTV Animal World and felt a little excited. She also really wanted to see it!

But when she saw her fat son, Xiao Wangcai, giggling while holding him, she came to her senses: Meng Zhehan and Xu Yulin might not agree to let her go. Even if she promised that she could protect her son, no one would believe her.

Shen Yu also disagreed. In order to dispel his young wife's curiosity, he drew up a plan for the family of three to take a relaxing trip and collect supplies. Meng Tao was overjoyed and stopped clamoring to go hunting.

The couple stayed at the great aunt's house for three days. Seeing that the old lady's physical condition had improved significantly, she was able to eat and drink and had the energy to talk and laugh. Under Meng Tao's persuasion, the old lady agreed to go to the city hospital for eye treatment in a few days, arranged by her children and grandchildren.

The truckload of things they brought was distributed to the relatives by Zhao Fuguo's brothers and an uncle of the Guan family. Shen Yu instructed Zhu Chunjiang to take care of this place in the future and to let everyone know if they had any difficulties and he would help in any way he could.

Zhu Chunjiang agreed with a smile and told them not to worry, saying that it was his uncle who brought Chunlin here before, and Chunlin would be going to the capital soon, so naturally he and Chunshan would come here in the future.

Shen Yumengtao said goodbye and left. Even though his relatives were reluctant to let him go, they knew that everyone had their own things to do, so they didn't try to keep him. Just like the people in Heilingzi Village, they loaded more than a dozen heavy sacks filled with local specialties into the car.

Zhao Fuguo smiled and said that the autumn harvest had just ended and that this year's harvest was good, so they had selected the best grains and kept them for them. This was everyone's kindness and could not be refused.

Meng Tao felt very ashamed for taking away so much in just one trip. Fortunately, she brought with her some food, dried meat, cloth, wool and other items, and gave some cash notes to each family.

Back at the Hongsong Town Guesthouse, Ding Hao and Huang Zhi were waiting there. Shen Yu asked them if they wanted to go hunting. Ding Hao laughed, and Huang Zhi rubbed his hands: "I can always hit the target with the Mu Cang method, but it's still not as interesting as actual combat."

Shen Yu said, "The child is young, so my husband and I won't go. You two can go first. Send Chunlin and Chunjiang to the county town. They have to go back to work. Then you can go after Yulin. Do you know where that is?"

"Yes, yes! They wrote the address here, and there's a phone number."

Ding Hao, Huang Zhi, Chun Lin and Chun Jiang drove away the truck.

As soon as they left, the couple left the guesthouse, holding their son and holding Xiao Wangcai's hand, and strolled along the street, all the way out of the town, found a secluded place, released the small truck in the space, and started their free-range tour.

Three days later, the family of four appeared in the urban area of ​​Xiacheng, which is more than a hundred miles away from Hongsong Town. They all changed their clothes. Shen Yu was wearing a handsome leather jacket, while Meng Tao and Xiao Yunhai were wearing down jackets, which were mother-and-child outfits bought at the Overseas Chinese Store.

Xiao Wangcai was still energetic and majestic. Meng Tao wanted to put a down vest on it, but it refused.

It snowed heavily in October, which Meng Tao couldn't imagine, but Shen Yu said it was normal and that's how it is in the Northeast.

Within three days, the couple traveled to several places and purchased and collected a lot of good things from the black market channels: ginseng, deer antlers, furs, high-grain wine, various medicinal wines, mushrooms, black fungus, ganoderma lucidum, honey, and they also caught a lot of big fish and shrimps from the deep lake that had never frozen, and raised them in the lotus pond in the space.

Shen Yu contacted them using the phone number Xu Yulin left behind. They asked the couple to stay where they were with the child and they would come over to meet them and go to the provincial capital together.

When Meng Tao saw the group of "hunters", she couldn't help but burst into laughter. Shen Yu almost couldn't hold back his laughter. Little Yunhai was even more confused. He hid in his father's arms, not sure if he knew these people.

Even Xiao Wangcai barked at them, with a mocking expression on his face.

Except for Meng Zhehan, Xu Yulin and Liu Jianye who were determined to resist the cold and maintain their image, the others were in a really miserable state - their clothes were already tattered from hunting in the forest, and the sudden drop in temperature almost froze them into popsicles. Fortunately, the comrades of Xu Yulin's friend got some animal skins from the local hunters, and they didn't even bother to make clothes. Several people directly took large pieces of animal skins and wrapped them around their bodies, and then tied them up with belts and dry vines... Just thinking about how they looked, they could totally be recognized as relatives of the Beggars' Gang.

Shen Yu pointed at two large cartons on the table and said, "We have to thank the Xiacheng Overseas Chinese Store for getting a batch of winter clothes in advance. I bought them for you, one set for each of you, including shoes, socks, hats and scarves. Change into them."

Xu Yuting and Liu Jianli cheered and rushed over to get clothes. Xu Yuting said to Meng Tao, "Xiao Huahua, I have something for you. Wait until I change my clothes!"

Liu Jianli followed up and said, "I have a gift for you too!"

Meng Tao: "Okay, okay, hurry up!"

Shen Yu: “…”

I feel so jealous. My friends are so annoying.

Xu Yulin changed his clothes and came out, taking out a notebook to show Shen Yu and Meng Tao. It recorded the prey they had hunted this time, including bears, wolves, deer, rhinos, wild boars, roe deer, hares and pheasants... a considerable number, weighing at least 20 to 30 tons.

"It's snowing heavily in the northeast, so the temperature in Beijing may not drop, but it should be cooler. We have already sent the prey to the train station, and Brother Han has asked someone to ship it back. When we get to Beijing, some of the prey will be shared by our relatives, and most of it will be transported away by people from my team to improve the situation for everyone," said Xu Yulin.

Meng Tao secretly felt sorry for those bears and deer. If they could be put into the space in time, their nutritional value and deliciousness would be increased many times.

"How many people did you organize? You hunted so many things, all meat. Don't the locals want it? Did you take it all away?"

"They can often hunt wild animals there, so they are not short of meat. They mainly want to exchange for money and other things. I contacted our leader, and he said to take everything back and send the money to them later."

"That's fine."
