Chapter 223 Naming the Dog and the Quiet Breaking of the Defense of Friends
"Hey, what's going on with Jin Hai and Zhao Hu? Why did they suddenly run away?" Lin Hai asked curiously.
Lin Heng waved his hand indifferently: "Who cares? It doesn't matter."
"Yeah, it doesn't matter."
Lin Hai laughed and walked towards Lin Heng's house with Tian Yan.
Xiaoxia returned home first with the dog and waited at the door.
Lin Heng opened the door and the three dogs rushed in first. The two puppies made baby voices. Jin Bao, who was basking in the sun on the stone table, looked up at everyone and then lay down lazily again.
There was still sunshine in the yard. Xiulan put up her clothes, and Lin Heng went to get tea sets and snacks. Several people sat around the stone table to bask in the sun.
"Meow~"
Jinbao was squeezed out of his position and cried out in dissatisfaction. He yawned loudly, walked under the eaves and lay down again.
Lin Heng took a sip of tea and asked, "What do you think would be a good name for these two puppies?"
Lin Hai immediately replied: "I think it's good to call one Xiaoqing and the other Xiaohei."
"Then they might as well be called Blue Wolf and Black Wolf." Tian Yan rolled her eyes, took a sip of tea and continued, "The blue wolf dog is called Chasing Wind, and the other is called Lightning. The faster they run, the faster they can catch prey."
Caiyun thought for a moment and said, "One is called Fengshou and the other is called Yuanbao, which means that you will gain something every time you go out."
"Brother Lin, what name do you want?" Lin Hai asked curiously.
"I haven't thought about it yet, what do you think, Xiulan?" Lin Heng looked at Xiulan.
Xiulan raised her head and thought for a while, then said, "The blue wolfhound is called Lai Fu, and the thin dog is called Na Cai."
Lin Heng thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll go get a pen and write down all the names, and let Xiaoxia draw the lots right away."
"This is a good idea." Caiyun was the first to agree.
Others nodded in agreement, thinking this was a good idea.
Lin Heng went into the house and got a pen and paper, and wrote down the names that everyone had thought of together. He didn't write anything because he couldn't think of any.
"By the way, what did Xiaoxia grab during her one-year-old celebration?" Tian Yan asked Xiulan while holding Xiaoxia in her arms.
Xiaoxia was fair and clean. Tian Yan liked snuggling in her arms and didn’t care even when her breasts were attacked.
Xiulan thought for a moment and said, "At that time, the objects for the one-year-old celebration included books, pens, money, seals, and flutes. She grabbed the pen."
"That's great. He has the potential to become a writer and scholar in the future," Tian Yan said with a smile.
As they drank tea, they soon started chatting about their own gifts for the first week of their lives.
"It's done."
After a while, Lin Heng finished writing, crumpled up all the papers and threw them into the bowl.
"Xiaoxia, come and give the dog a name."
Caiyun said with a smile.
"You can only catch one at a time." Tian Yan said beside her.
"Okay." Xiaoxia nodded in a baby voice and walked to the edge of the table to grab it.
When Xiaoxia was catching it, everyone placed a bet. They all thought that whoever could catch it would be the one who caught it. The loser would have to drink a large glass of water.
Xiaoxia looked through the paper balls and took out the first one that named the blue wolfhound. She opened it and saw the words "Lai Fu" written on it.
"It's actually Xiulan's. Is this a sign of telepathy between mother and daughter?" Tian Yan said with a smile.
"Oh, I can only pray that the next one is mine." Caiyun said helplessly.
Xiulan smiled slightly, looked at Xiaoxia and said, "Catch the second one quickly. I'll give you a candy after you catch it."
When she heard about candy, Xiaoxia shook her head and went to grab the second one. When the paper ball opened, colorful clouds cheered and the word "harvest" was written on it.
"Haha, I don't need to drink water anymore." Caiyun laughed.
"Okay then, the blue wolfhound will be called Lai Fu, and the greyhound will be called Feng Shou." Lin Heng nodded with a smile, and then said, "Drink water quickly if you want."
He didn't participate in naming it, so naturally he doesn't have to drink it.
"Let me tell you, Sister Tian Yan, Brother Lin Hai!" Caiyun smiled and took two large cups and filled them with warm water.
Lin Heng asked Xiaoxia to call the two puppies' names, while Lin Hai and Tian Yan drank boiled water. The yard was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
"I'll give you some."
Lin Hai finished his drink, took Tian Yan's half-finished drink and drank it in big gulps.
"You really love my sister Tian Yan." Caiyun laughed beside her, and Tian Yan took a biscuit to cover her mouth.
After playing for a while, Xiulan went to cook, leaving a few people in the house to eat lunch.
The young man was not so polite and had lunch at Lin Heng's house.
"Isn't this a nice fish? This was caught by Xiulan herself."
Lin Heng boasted to everyone about the crucian carp on the plate. Today's crucian carp was braised.
"It's delicious. Xiulan's cooking skills are impeccable." Tian Yan affirmed first.
Caiyun also nodded: "Yes, my brother is so happy."
Only Lin Hai was not at the table, because he went to the bathroom and drank too much water.
After finishing the meal and clearing away the dishes, Lin Heng sent Tian Yan and Lin Hai out.
“Boom boom boom!”
"Lin Heng, it's me."
As soon as I closed the door and entered the yard, there was a knock on the door.
When Lin Heng heard the voice was that of his childhood friend Liu Sheng, he immediately walked over and opened the door.
"Long time no see." He greeted with a smile.
"Long time no see. Your house has really changed a lot." Liu Sheng walked into the yard and looked at Lin Heng's house enviously.
This yard and house are completely different from what they were half a year ago. The tacky look of the mud walls is gone, and now they are elegant and warm.
There was also a beautiful red official hat chair in the yard, as well as this domineering sidecar tricycle that looked full of mechanical beauty, making him feel as if he had not been away for half a year, but for several decades.
Looking at Xiulan picking vegetables and Xiaoxia walking her dog in the distance, Lin Heng's life is really perfect. But he doesn't even have a partner now. As soon as he came back today, his father urged him to go out.
"Haha, it's just a simple decoration. Please sit down." Lin Heng took him into the main room and poured him a cup of tea.
Lin Heng always maintained kindness and the friendship they had grown up with towards Liu Sheng.
While drinking tea, the two chatted for a while. As for Lin Heng, Liu Sheng told him everything he knew. He knew everything they did outside.
Half a year ago, Zhao Hu used his father's connections and the three of them borrowed 10,000 yuan from the bank. Zhao Hu himself borrowed 5,000 yuan, Jin Hai borrowed 3,000 yuan, and Liu Sheng borrowed 2,000 yuan.
The three of them jointly bought a large tractor and transported some goods with price differences from the provincial capital of Ancheng to Taibai City and several other small cities for resale.
At the end of the year, they made a total of more than 2,000 yuan, of which Liu Sheng received 700 yuan. He paid back the interest and part of the principal and took home more than 400 yuan, while Jin Hai and Zhao Hu only paid the interest and took home a lot of cash.
"Actually, I didn't want to come now, but Zhao Hu and the others kept asking me to come and check on you, so I had no choice but to come." Liu Sheng was very frank and did not hide anything from Lin Heng.
In fact, if he had a choice, he wanted to start a business with Lin Heng, but the work here at Lin Heng was not suitable for him, so he could only follow Zhao Hu to make some money first.
"I guessed it. He must have been unhappy when I left him. He wanted to see me regret it." Lin Heng smiled. He was not surprised by Liu Sheng's honesty. After all, they had been friends since they were young.
After taking a sip of tea, Liu Sheng smiled and said, "When they heard that you bought a sidecar motorcycle, they didn't believe it. Now it seems that their faces will be very unhappy. They can't celebrate the New Year well. When they came back, they were still thinking about how to show off to you."
"Haha, that really disappoints them." Lin Heng smiled.
After taking two sips of tea, the two chatted about other things, such as future development plans.
Liu Sheng looked at Lin Heng and said, "They plan to work for a few more years and then take out a loan to buy a large truck or a few tractors to set up a transportation company.
This thing is really profitable. Now I am following Zhao Hu, which is much better than doing farm work at home. It’s just that it’s inconvenient to have a rural household registration. "
"That's good. Just remember to take it easy when it comes to important decisions."
Lin Heng nodded. It is good for young people to dare to go out and explore. It is better than farming at home.
However, transportation is OK for them on a small scale, but it is not so easy to expand the scale. He was so miserable in his previous life because he blindly took loans to expand the scale in the 1990s.
When the company was just established, Zhao Hu offended a well-known transportation company and was tricked into shipping a large batch of goods, which were left to rot in his hands.
The company's capital chain was broken, and Lin Heng, Liu Sheng and others were still thinking about how to get through this difficult time, but Zhao Hu secretly sold his assets and ran away with the money, leaving them with a pile of debts.
Zhao Hu usually looks like a man of integrity, but when things really get tough he will only betray his friends.
In fact, it was also Lin Heng and the others' fault. They trusted Zhao Hu too much at the time and let him take all the seals and materials. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so tragic.
"There seems to be no problem at the moment." Liu Sheng said.
Lin Heng looked at him and gave him another piece of advice: "I suggest you save the money you make, and don't invest too much. Improve your family's life first."
In his previous life, he made some money at the beginning, but he invested it all again and didn't leave much for his wife and children. In the end, he lost it all at once.
"Yes, I will." Liu Sheng nodded, took a sip of tea and said, "Take me to see your house. You have done a great job."
"good."
Lin Heng nodded, not knowing whether Liu Sheng had listened to him or not.
After walking around Lin Heng's house, Liu Sheng was a little shocked: "You are really rich, is hunting so profitable?"
I remember when I was playing bow and arrow with Lin Heng, Lin Heng said that even if he had good aim, he didn't want to hunt. But now it seems that it was all a cover-up. Hunting made him a lot of money.
"Haha, this thing depends on luck." Lin Heng smiled slightly.
Liu Sheng shook his head gently: "My dream is the same as yours now. It's a pity that I can't even shoot accurately with a slingshot, otherwise I would try hunting."
After chatting for a few more words, Liu Sheng went to look at Lin Heng's car again and wanted to leave.
Lin Heng wanted to keep him for dinner and have a good chat.
"I can't eat it. Zhao Hu and the others are still waiting. Let's do it another day." Liu Sheng pointed outside and said.
"What about tomorrow night?" Lin Heng asked with a smile.
"Okay, I'll come over tomorrow night." Liu Sheng nodded and walked out.
After he left Lin Heng's yard, he did not go home, but went directly to Zhao Hu's house.
Zhao Hu and Jin Hai saw Liu Sheng coming over and quickly came up to him and asked in unison: "How's the investigation going?"
Liu Sheng nodded and told them everything he had seen and heard at Lin Heng's house, the three-wheeled vehicle, the wild boar meat covering the walls, the furniture made of ebony wood, the construction of the house, and some of the things Lin Heng had said.
He asked Lin Heng about these things before telling Zhao Hu and Jin Hai.
Zhao Hu was puzzled: "This is unscientific. How can he be so rich without going out? Is there really so much wealth in the mountains?"
Jin Hai shook his head: "Impossible, there are more than one person in the village who hunts in the mountains, and no one is so rich. Did he pick up gold in the mountains?"
After the two of them discussed it, they felt that picking up the gold was more reasonable.
Although I didn't say it, I could feel a sense of frustration. Not only was he rich, but he also had a happy family. It really made me angry.
Especially Jin Hai, he completely stopped and no longer had the idea of showing off to Lin Heng. With such wealth, he would not be able to make money even if he worked outside for a year.
"Our business has just started, it's only a matter of time before we surpass him. Even if we pick up gold, we can't pick it up often, right?" Zhao Hu encouraged himself. He couldn't understand why he didn't see that Lin Heng had this ability before.
"Oh, I heard from my sister that it seemed that it was Lin Heng who gave the idea behind the scenes to let Lin Heng seduce Tian Yan. What a bastard." Jin Hai said depressedly.
Even Liu Sheng was a little angry when talking about this. Tian Yan was the only one in the village who was educated and elegant. They all wanted to marry her, but who knew that she was stolen by that guy Lin Hai.
"Hmph, if we can't deal with Lin Heng, how can we deal with Lin Hai?" Zhao Hu snorted coldly, feeling disgusted with this kid Lin Hai.
…
…
On the other side, Lin Heng sent Liu Sheng away and started training the blue wolf dog Lai Fu and the greyhound Fengshou in the yard.
The two little puppies are quite cute when they whine, but they are a little difficult to train.
Xiaoxia watched Lin Heng training the dog and seemed to be learning. Xiulan was bored and found a book to read slowly.
Before I knew it, it was already dark, and another day had passed. I read a story to Xiaoxia as usual, and then I had a little fun with Xiulan, biting her ears, and fell asleep in each other's arms.
The next day was the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, and every household began to clean their houses in preparation for the New Year.
Lin Heng's house is a new one, very clean. He didn't get up very early in the morning, but stayed in bed for a while.
Getting up, exercising and eating breakfast is what I do in the morning, but it’s definitely not boring when I spend time with someone I love.
Just after breakfast, Lin Heng heard Caiyun coming over and telling him a piece of news.
Zhao Hu and others showed off in front of Lin Hai, and mocked him implicitly that he was not worthy of Tian Yan, etc. But the funny thing was that they were so angry that Lin Hai kept saying Tian Yan was his girlfriend.
He wanted to chase Lin Hai and teach him a lesson, but before he could outrun Lin Hai, he was easily defeated.
When Tian Yan got the news, she went straight over and chased Zhao Hu and Jin Hai away, saying bluntly that she had decided on Lin Hai and would never fall for the three of them. She also pulled Lin Hai to kiss her.
"What happened next?" Xiulan asked curiously after hearing the gossip.
Caiyun smiled and replied, "It is said that the two of them drove away on a motorcycle. I don't know whether they went out to have fun or not to celebrate the New Year. Anyway, they looked extremely unhappy when they left."
Xiulan couldn't help but smile when she heard this, while Lin Heng asked curiously, "Caiyun, how did you know that?"
"A little boy in the village told me." Caiyun spread her hands and said that she also had many little fans in the village.
