Zheng Yushan chattered all the way, talking about her school days.
I waited until we left the county town without asking a single question about the clothes.
Zhang Shuguang couldn't help but mention it.
"The department store doesn't have the clothes I like. I already have all the styles. There's no need to waste money on them. I'll be wearing the same clothes tomorrow."
Wearing new clothes when getting engaged is not a rule, it is just a custom, and Zheng Yushan doesn't care about it.
"I've prepared everything. They're all in the back seat. Not only yours, but also Uncle Zheng and Auntie Zheng's, and even Brother Yuhui's."
Zhang Shuguang still cares a lot about his engagement tomorrow.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Zheng Yushan was not a nosy person and did not ask where these clothes were bought from.
The two returned to the army's living area. Zhang Shuguang took a few packages and sent Zheng Yushan back first.
Tomorrow is their engagement day, and they can meet early in the morning. There is no need to be reluctant to part. After sending Zheng Yushan home, Zhang Shuguang went back.
Before entering the house, Zhang Shuguang heard that the yard was more lively than usual.
The roar of the jeep also attracted the attention of everyone in the yard, and a group of children quickly hid aside.
"Brother, today my aunt is here with my sister Hu Ni, as well as Damao and Ermao."
As soon as the jeep stopped, the little girl came over.
"Look, big brother, the mousedeer has a cage."
The little girl took Zhang Shuguang's big hand and pointed to an open space in the yard.
The little mouse deer, which originally needed to be kept in an upside-down bamboo basket, now lives in a new home.
The cage is made of woven bamboo strips and is large enough to give the mouse deer inside ample room to move around.
Although the bamboo cage is large in size, it does not look clumsy at all, and every detail is well handled.
It can be seen that the people who weave bamboo cages are not only highly skilled, but also put their heart into it.
"The cage is beautiful. Who made it?"
Zhang Shuguang gave a heartfelt compliment.
"It's Aunt Suhua. I think she's very beautiful too. Sister Jingjing and Little Fatty also want her, but they have to go back soon. There's no room on the train, and we're running out of time."
The little girl also felt sorry for her good friend.
“We don’t have anything special to show for it, but my wife learned the craft of basket weaving at her parents’ home.
The last time I came here, I saw Panpan’s fawn was held in a bamboo basket, so I asked him to cut some bamboo in the mountains, and I finished weaving it this morning.”
Hu Jianpeng felt a little embarrassed. The captain's family had done a great favor to their family, but he was currently unable to repay them and could only keep it in his heart.
"Gifts cannot be measured by money; what matters is the thought. Aunt Suhua is thoughtful. This cage is exactly what our family needs.
"Platoon Leader Hu, are you taking a break today? I'll go for a walk in the mountains, hunt some game, and have a drink tonight."
Tomorrow is his engagement day, Zhang Shuguang attaches great importance to it, at least the banquet cannot be bad.
"Well, our company will be on a mission with the regiment commander next week, so we haven't been assigned to patrol the border these days. I'm familiar with this area, so I'll go with you.
I may not be as good as you at hunting, but I can still come along to carry things and explore the way."
"No, I can do it myself. Platoon Leader Hu, just sharpen the knife and boil some water. Just wait for me to come back."
Prey is not that easy to find, and time is a bit tight today. Zhang Shuguang will definitely use the Dragon Step, so it will be inconvenient for Hu Jianpeng to follow him.
"Okay, then be careful."
Out of military habit, Hu Jianpeng obeyed Zhang Shuguang's arrangements.
"You'll all have dinner at my house today. My eldest brother went hunting and will definitely bring back lots of meat."
Zhang Shuguang walked out of the house, followed by the proud voice of the little girl.
After leaving the living area, Zhang Shuguang walked into the rainforest with ease.
As he performed the Dragon Step, Zhang Shuguang moved quickly through the rainforest like a ghost.
With the help of his five senses, Zhang Shuguang rarely has to take a wrong turn.
An hour later, Zhang Shuguang had a great harvest. He was holding a wild buffalo in his hand, with a long-dead Malayan bear tied to the buffalo's back, and a dozen pheasants and rabbits hanging on it.
Zhang Shuguang caught a male bison, which was nearly three meters long, 1.8 meters tall at the shoulders, and weighed a conservative estimate of over 800 kilograms.
When Zhang Shuguang just rode on its back, the mad bison jumped three feet high, but Zhang Shuguang clamped his legs tightly around the bull's belly, as if he was nailed to the bull's back, as steady as a rock.
When the bison's physical strength was almost exhausted, Zhang Shuguang swung his iron fist and hit the bison's back and neck hard with punches one after another.
After many transformations of strength pills and body-strengthening pills, Zhang Shuguang's body can now punch more than a thousand pounds.
Even though the bison has thick skin and flesh, it cannot withstand such a blow.
After a dozen punches, the bison knelt on the ground and lowered its noble head.
"Sun Ning, what do you see there? A bison?"
When Zhang Shuguang and the huge body of the bison appeared in the guards' sight, the guards could hardly believe their eyes.
A bison weighing more than a thousand pounds is no different from being tickled unless it is hit in the vitals by a gun.
When soldiers are patrolling the border, if they accidentally encounter a herd of bison, they will generally avoid them if possible.
Bison are herbivores, and as long as you don't provoke them, you can generally live in peace.
Even if there was no way to avoid it, the soldiers could only scare away the Red Bull with dense gunfire.
There are few records of hunting bison in the entire military region.
But what did they see today? Zhang Shuguang was leading a wild bull the size of a small mountain, looking relaxed, like an old farmer who had just finished plowing the ground, or a shepherd boy who had just finished herding cattle.
When did bison become so docile?
"Xiao Guang, be careful."
The guard raised his gun and tried to keep his voice as low as possible, for fear of disturbing the bison and causing harm to Zhang Shuguang.
"It's okay, they've been tamed. Our production team has tamed wild bulls, and they can plow the land very quickly."
Zhang Shuguang patted the bull's head, signaling the guards not to be nervous.
"Brothers, I'll give you an extra dish tonight."
Zhang Shuguang picked two pheasants from the cow's back and placed them at the entrance of the living area.
"Don't refuse. I'm getting engaged tomorrow, and you have a mission, so you won't be able to drink at our wedding. After you change shifts, you can drink on your own. I won't make any other arrangements."
The guards on duty worked in two shifts, and Zhang Shuguang gave them all wild game to eat.
"Is it Comrade Zheng Yushan? Comrade Zheng Yushan is the most beautiful girl in our military compound. Officers and soldiers who like her can line up from the living quarters to northern Myanmar. Xiaoguang is really capable."
"What are you talking about? Comrade Zheng Yushan is beautiful, and our Xiaoguang is not bad looking either! They are a match made in heaven."
"Yeah! Ordinary people can't hunt bison, let alone tame them."
The guard duty in the living area was not as serious as that in the base. Seeing that the bison posed no threat, the guards started joking with Zhang Shuguang.
"Yes, it's Yushan."
"You guys keep busy, I have to go back and deal with the prey."
Zhang Shuguang smiled and waved his hand, leading the bison into the living area.
