Chapter 89 Young people nowadays don’t choose a date for their weddings
Zhou Jingshen took it calmly and put the peach cake back into the oil paper bag on the table very naturally.
"Grandma Qin, can we have dinner at your house?"
People like to be lively when they get older, so Grandma Qin naturally welcomed it and didn't even consider whether there was enough food at home.
She grinned with her dry lips, and every wrinkle on her face was kind and friendly. "Of course!"
And he instructed Qin Jin, "Ah Jin, clean a few pieces of dried fish that we dried, and go to the field to pick a handful of green onions."
In the summer, Qin Jin would go to the river to catch fish whenever he had time. He would string up the leftovers and hang them under the eaves to dry. They tasted unique.
Qin Jin was also a generous person and did not object.
He immediately stood up and strode towards his own vegetable patch.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
"Wait!" Zhou Jingshen stopped him.
Qin Jin looked back in confusion and gave him a look that asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhou Jingshen turned to Grandma Qin and said, "Grandma, it's still early. There's no need to cook so early. Why don't you let Qin Jin take us for a walk in the mountains?"
Zhou Jingshen originally planned to have dinner at Grandma Qin's house and leave her some money for the meal.
It was still early, and it was boring to just sit there, so he decided to go up the mountain and hunt some pheasants and rabbits to provide a snack for the villagers and celebrate his marriage to Song Shuyan.
It’s not that no one in the village has thought about hunting the various animals in the mountains, but everyone has been farming for generations and has no experience in hunting. The various animals in the mountains are also very smart and disappear without a trace in seconds when they see people, so it is not easy to catch them.
During the slack season, many people went up the mountain to try their luck, but they all returned empty-handed. Over time, no one bothered to do that anymore.
Grandma Qin knew her grandson's abilities, and Qin Jin rarely returned empty-handed when he went up the mountain.
Many people in the village were jealous and tried to use various methods to persuade Qin Jin to pass on his skills to them.
Qin Jin did not refuse.
It’s strange that every time he took the villagers up the mountain and spent a whole day with a group of people wandering around the mountain, he still didn’t catch anything in the end.
Everyone in the village thought that Qin Jin was hiding something and fooling them.
The team leader followed him several times and found a problem. Qin Jin was young, and many villagers did not listen to him. They went up the mountain to chat, and it was as lively as a market. Even if there were prey, they would be scared away by them.
He realized that hunting was not possible with too many people.
If I tell them the truth, I'm afraid that these people in the village are incompetent and will go up the mountain alone, and something might happen if they encounter large wild beasts.
In the end, he said nothing.
He was only criticizing the villagers. Qin Jin was able to hunt in the mountains because it might be God's blessing. It was a gift from heaven, so they should forget about it.
No matter how unwilling the villagers were, there was nothing they could do.
Every time they followed him up the mountain, the mountain seemed empty, without a single rabbit hair.
Hear the sounds of various birds.
Qin Jin also said that there were too many people, and the birds were avoiding them and would not stop, so they could not be shot.
Later, only one person was arranged to take turns going up the mountain with Qin Jin. This time, they did see the prey, but without Qin Jin's accuracy, they still couldn't hit the prey, so everyone gave up.
In fact, Qin Jin doesn't go up the mountain often.
Because Grandma Qin is superstitious.
It is said that all things have spirits.
It is not good to kill too many lives.
She would not let Qin Jin go into the mountains until he was at his wit's end.
Only Grandma Qin knew that superstition was just her excuse. She was just afraid that if Qin Jin went up the mountain too often, her family would be the only one in the village living a good life, which would arouse jealousy.
Besides, there are wild boars, tigers, wolves and other things in the deep mountains. She was also afraid that Qin Jin would go up the mountain too often and eventually encounter a tiger, and something would happen.
So, under normal circumstances, she would not allow Qin Jin to run up the mountain.
At this time, Grandma Qin frowned and wanted to refuse.
Qin Jin's eyes lit up.
In the past, when he went up the mountain, he would hide it from his grandmother and sneak up the mountain in the middle of the night.
The last tiger hunting incident scared grandma. She would wake up in the middle of the night and go to his room to check on him. He hasn't had the chance to go up the mountain for a long time.
Before Grandma Qin could refuse, Song Shuyan said, "Let's not go deep into the mountains, let's just go for a walk at the foot of the mountain."
Grandma Qin saw that Song Shuyan was also leaving.
I thought that Comrade Zhou probably wouldn't be so unreliable as to take Song Zhiqing into the mountains?
There is no danger in just strolling around the foot of the mountain.
She changed her tone and agreed, "Ah Jin, go ahead."
Qin Jin was so happy that he immediately went back to the house to pack up his various homemade slingshots and crossbows.
When Grandma Qin saw him wearing these things, her brows furrowed again.
Qin Jin quickly said, "I'll just see if there are any rabbits, pheasants, or anything like that at the foot of the mountain. What if I'm lucky enough to see one?"
Grandma Qin didn't say anything then.
Song Shuyan was also very happy.
She was reluctant to go back so early with Zhou Jingshen.
Staying at Grandma Qin's house, or going back to the Youth League compound and just staring at each other, doing nothing, would be awkward.
It’s good to go up the mountain.
As long as he stood within her sight, she couldn't help but feel happy.
Zhou Jingshen also curled up the corners of his lips.
Qin Jin led the way to the mountain he often went to.
The weather in the south is warm and it is like spring all year round.
Even in October, the roadside is still full of unknown wild flowers, pink and light yellow, pure and flawless white, and noble and charming purple, attracting butterflies to play among the flowers, which is very beautiful.
Song Shuyan felt that the rural scenery was extremely beautiful when he didn't have to work.
Passing by fields of farmland.
The villagers dispersed and worked in the fields. When they saw the group of three people, they all looked sideways.
Asked, "Where is Song Zhiqing going?"
"Qin Erliuzi didn't go out again today?"
"Didn't he pick up a child and take him home? He's taking care of the child at home!"
"Alas, this old man and this child can hardly support themselves, and they are still raising other people's children!"
Qin Jin pretended not to hear, said nothing, and walked into the mountains without looking around.
Song Shuyan smiled politely and said to the lady who asked her, "I'm just taking a walk."
The old lady was getting excited. She stopped what she was doing to rest her feet, stood up straight, put her hands on her hips and asked with a smile, "Did you get the marriage certificate?"
The sound was so loud that everyone in the entire valley could hear it.
Song Shuyan blushed and replied, "I got it."
The old lady didn't hear clearly and thought her voice was too soft, "What?"
Zhou Jingshen stopped and answered for her, "I got it!"
Now the old lady heard it.
He laughed with great joy, "Oh, Song Zhiqing, you spoke so quietly, are you shy?"
The villagers in the field started to make a fuss, "When are we going to have the banquet? Treat us to a meal!"
It was Zhou Jingshen who answered again, seriously and without any perfunctory tone, "Almost there! Almost there!"
Song Shuyan just wanted to leave quickly, so she left Zhou Jingshen, who was still chatting with the villagers, and ran to catch up with Qin Jin.
Someone who loves to joke shouted, "Hey, Comrade Zhou, your wife ran away, hurry up and catch up with her!"
Zhou Jingshen smiled at everyone working in the fields, and really strode to catch up with Song Shuyan.
The people working in the fields were still discussing, "Oh, young people nowadays don't even need to pick a date to get married?"
"Getting a marriage certificate isn't like having a wedding. For a wedding, they still have to pick a date, right?"
"Song Zhiqing and Comrade Zhou are not locals. Will they hold a banquet in our village?"
