Chapter 416 Sending Military Dogs 3
The soldier handed his ID to Li Haoran. He also wanted to see who the person who adopted the three military dogs was.
So, at the soldier's command, the three sitting military dogs stood up and walked quietly behind him.
Only when he actually walked into the village did he feel exactly how different this village was from other villages outside.
The members he had just seen had all come down from the back mountain, holding hoes and carrying poles. Judging from their mental appearance, although those members were thin, they all looked high-spirited and did not look like they were starving. Moreover, people in other villages were staying at home during the winter and were actually starving.
The people of Beishan Village are working, and doing heavy work at that, as evidenced by the shoulder poles and hoes. If they can do heavy work, especially during the slack season, it means that the people in this village have food to eat and will not starve.
This was a serious matter. Although he was in the army, he had heard from his comrades who had returned home to visit their families about the situation in the countryside. Most villages did not have abundant food, and they dared not eat too much in the winter, otherwise they would not be able to wait until the summer harvest next year for food distribution.
When he went to the commune to ask for directions to the village, the commune leader said that the village was one of the poorest brigades in their commune. This was obviously inconsistent, and he wanted to stay and find out more.
He brought the military dog to Li Haoran's home, and Li Haoran entertained him warmly, cooking a bowl of egg noodles and a pot of meat porridge for the military dog.
That basin is a washbasin, and the meat is chopped and mixed with rice, not mixed grains. He came to another conclusion: the captain's family lived a good life, with food and meat.
The fact that the family is willing to feed the meat to the dog shows that this family is not short of meat. But he knew that rice was precious and meat was even more precious.
"Captain, they eat everything. You should save these good things for your family," said Haojun.
Although he liked that the military dog could eat such delicious food, he couldn't let the family go bankrupt.
"It's okay. My son and I know how to hunt, and we can still afford the meat." Li Haoran knew that the soldier was worried about him, so he explained.
So that's why Haojun knew why this family lived such a good life.
Li Haoran doesn't have time to chat with Haojun at home because he is very busy. So he said to Haojun: "Comrade, do you want to rest at home or go out for a walk?"
"I'll go for a walk outside and take them for a walk so they can get familiar with this place. After all, they will live here in the future." Haojun said, and finally he asked the doubts in his heart.
"Captain, I would like to ask, your son has three dogs. Does he raise them all himself?"
"That should be the case. My daughter-in-law likes to raise these animals, especially dogs." Li Haoran thought that if she even raises wolves, what about dogs?
Haojun understood that this family's son Li Ziyi was probably bought for his wife to raise. These three dogs eat no less than three adults, so don't be disgusted and just kill them and eat their meat when the time comes.
No wonder he had such concerns. Which woman as a daughter-in-law could be the head of her own family? It seems that Li Ziyi is very good to his wife. In order to please her and have some connections, he just took the military dog.
Haojun was relieved when he first saw that the family's living conditions were good, but now he is worried again. What should I do? He frowned.
Li Haoran didn't have so much time to waste at home, so he said, "Just take a walk and come back to rest when you're tired." He pointed to the room where he was supposed to rest and left.
Haojun sat there thinking for a long time. The three military dogs, who were full, also looked at him. After a long time, he took the backpack into the room and put it down.
The room was very clean. Apart from a bed, there was a long small table under the window and a wardrobe opposite the bed. Except for a quilt and pillow on the bed, the rest of the room was empty, indicating that no one usually lived in this room. He guessed that the family should not be large.
He became even more worried. Since the population was small, there were fewer people earning work points, but it was difficult to support three military dogs with the income from hunting. If there was only one, he wouldn't worry, but three, that would be difficult!
Yike didn't know that the military dog had been delivered to her home, and she didn't know that the person who delivered the military dog was worried that she couldn't afford to keep the military dog. At this time, she was sleeping soundly in the car.
They should have arrived home today, but guard Xiao Wu was driving alone on the road. Ziyi was worried that he was too tired, so he did not drive at night. Instead, he found a guesthouse to stay in and set off after dawn. Therefore, the earliest they could arrive home would be tomorrow afternoon.
Ziyi guessed that the person who delivered the military dog should have arrived home. He regretted not telling Li Haoran when he called him before leaving.
Ziyi was worried that Li Haoran would not be able to take care of the three military dogs by himself, but the military dogs he was worried about were now happily taking a walk in the village with their trainer Haojun. The children in the village knew that the soldier was here to look for Big Brother Ziyi and was not a bad person, so they were no longer afraid of him. Instead, they were very fond of the three military dogs.
The children had envious looks in their eyes. They thought, "Look at this dog's shiny and smooth fur. How much fatty pork must it eat to grow such fur? Look at the firm meat on its body. How much grain must it eat? And it must be fine grains, not coarse grains, otherwise it would not be able to grow muscles." If we kill them, there will be so much meat. At least we can eat a piece of it.
These are the children’s inner thoughts, of course they dare not say them out loud. Those three dogs look very ferocious. Not to mention eating dog meat, my skinny body won't even be enough to feed these three dogs.
Haojun looked at the rich expressions of these children and found them very cute.
"Kids, why don't you go to school? It seems like today is school time." Haojun asked with a smile.
Most of the children present were not well-educated, but Hu Zi was, so he thought he should answer this question himself.
Hu Zi said: "One side of the classroom wall collapsed, and the teacher said they had to rebuild it, so we had a holiday."
"Oh, so that's how it is. How old are you? What grade are you in?" Haojun went over and sat on the rock under the big locust tree with Huzi.
"I'm eleven years old and in the second grade." Hu Zi said proudly.
"He is only in the second grade at the age of eleven. His family must be poor, so he is still studying at such a young age." Haojun thought to himself.
"That's right. You can read and write. You will have a bright future when you grow up," the Red Army praised.
"Yeah, that's what our teacher said too." Hu Zi said, raising his little head proudly.
He pointed at his friends and said, "They don't have any education, but our team leader said that next year the village will build a school so that they can also go to school. Then, I won't have to travel so far to go to school in other teams."
The other children had originally lowered their heads when talking about studying, but now after Hu Zi said this, they all raised their heads in unison.
