After going down the mountain, Lin Xiuyao skinned and cleaned the rabbit and handed it to Su Qingmeng: "Su Zhiqing, you can keep it for yourself." Then he prepared to go home.
Su Qingmeng said, "Wait a minute." She had never given him anything before, and this time she felt embarrassed to eat the rabbit alone, so she decided to make some for him.
She chopped up the rabbit, took out the chili peppers, and prepared to make spicy diced rabbit. Lin Xiuyao came over and started the fire, and soon the spicy and fragrant aroma came from the pot.
After it was done, Su Qingmeng gave Lin Xiuyao a bowl to take home. Lin Xiuyao took the bowl and was flattered.
He seemed to see the dawn of victory. Two days ago, his third aunt asked him when he would get married and wanted to prepare in advance, but he was too embarrassed to say that he had not yet found someone.
Lin Xiuyao returned home with a happy smile on his face. The spicy diced rabbit was really delicious, and Su Zhiqing's cooking skills were really good.
He looked at his family's three-room brick house. His eldest brother probably wouldn't be returning to the countryside after joining the army, and even if he retired, the army would still find him a job. This house was enough for him to get married temporarily, and it would also provide a place for him to live when he had children.
I heard that getting married in the city required three turns and one ring. He already had a bicycle, Su Qingmeng had a watch, and he also had to prepare a sewing machine and a radio. He had to give more as a gift, and he planned to give 200. This would cost him more than 600 yuan for the wedding, and his savings were just enough, so he still had to work hard to earn money.
Lin Xiuyao entered Taoyuan Township. His thatched hut was filled with various supplies he had collected, including eggs, grain, cooking oil, etc., as well as pheasants and rabbits he had hunted in the mountains.
Lin Xiuyao not only partners with others in the black market, but also collects and sells supplies himself. Tomorrow he'll go to the county town to sell these, and he'll make forty or fifty yuan per trip. As he sorts through his supplies, he imagines his future life, full of energy.
Su Qingmeng was also busy on the farm. She found an entertainment building in the warehouse for playing darts. The building had a target and a basket of knives, which was perfect for practicing her aim.
After practicing for half an hour, her arms felt a little sore. She went to the bathroom to take a bath and rested on the recliner. The time was up and the lights on the farm gradually lit up. Su Qingmeng was a little dazed.
The farm was brightly lit at night, giving her the feeling of returning to modern times to watch the night view. Unlike in the brigade, the village was pitch black after sunset, with a dead silence. She was not used to the life without nightlife after traveling through time, so she stayed there for a while and went out to sleep.
After the bow and arrow were made, Lin Xiuyao took Su Qingmeng to practice archery in the open space at the foot of the mountain every day, at a distance of about 20 meters, aiming at a tree and practicing bow drawing.
"Bang" the arrow shot into the tree trunk. Su Qingmeng shook his hand and finally hit it.
Lin Xiuyao complimented her against his will, "Not bad, Su Zhiqing, you're learning really fast," but his perks were gone so quickly. He couldn't help but touch her while teaching her the poses, and he enjoyed the closeness, even letting his imagination run wild.
Su Qingmeng was very happy, "You teach well, thank you, Comrade Lin." Lin Xiuyao was serious and patient when teaching her, and he was a good master.
A serious-looking young man saw them, walked over, and winked at Lin Xiuyao, "Brother Yao, are you teaching Su Zhiqing archery?"
Lin Xiuyao introduced them to each other, "This is Zheng An, my friend, and this is Su Qingmeng, the educated youth, who will be your sister-in-law in the future."
Su Qingmeng glared at him and said something nonsense, "Hello, Comrade Zheng, just call me by my name."
Zheng An: "Sister-in-law... Su Zhiqing, Brother Yao and I grew up together. We have a very good relationship. If you need any help in the future, just come to me."
"Okay, I'm here. I don't need you for now. Go and get busy." Lin Xiuyao drove them away so as not to disturb their world of two.
Zheng An said "oh" and smiled at Su Qingmeng before leaving. He didn't want to be a light bulb, so he was just curious. Brother Yao was really amazing, even looking for a partner who was so good-looking and cultured.
"Don't pay attention to him, let's continue practicing." Seeing Su Qingmeng staring at Zheng An's back, Lin Xiuyao quickly diverted her attention.
Su Qingmeng looked away, wanting to lecture him about the "sister-in-law" he had just mentioned, but swallowed the words back. Never mind, this guy was so thick-skinned, it would be useless to talk to him. She concentrated on practicing archery.
Su Qingmeng learned very quickly. She was strong and had good accuracy. She practiced in the space at night and mastered it in a few days.
After mastering it, they began to go up the mountain to look for prey. Lin Xiuyao taught her to find traces of prey through terrain, water sources, animal footprints, feces, etc.
Half a month later, Su Qingmeng shot her first prey, a pheasant. She ran over to pick it up and said happily, "Lin Xiuyao, look, I shot it."
The mottled shadows of the trees were reflected on Su Qingmeng's porcelain-white cheeks. At this moment, her eyebrows were curved and her smile was sweet. Lin Xiuyao rarely saw her express her emotions so openly. He was stunned, his heart pounding.
Lin Xiuyao was a little silent on the way down the mountain. He dropped Su Qingmeng off at the entrance of the educated youth center and left. He walked so fast that Su Qingmeng wanted to keep him for dinner.
Zhou Wenxi was surprised when she saw Su Qingmeng carrying a pheasant. "Did you catch the prey so quickly?"
She knew Su Qingmeng was learning hunting and she admired her. She looked like a delicate young lady, but she was unexpectedly able to endure hardships.
"Sister Wenxi, let's eat together today to celebrate my first hunt." Su Qingmeng said, she also learned how to handle the prey.
Su Qingmeng made a pot of chicken stewed with potatoes, and Zhou Wenxi also took out a piece of bacon and made stir-fried pork with chili peppers.
The two invited Tian Ke to eat with them. A few days ago, Tian Ke moved out of the single room in the backyard and moved to the front yard. During this period, Su Qingmeng went to learn hunting, and Tian Ke and Zhou Wenqian went up the mountain together. Their relationship also improved.
Tian Ke and Zhou Wenxi ate the chicken cooked by Su Qingmeng, and kept praising her hunting skills and cooking skills. Su Qingmeng was flattered by the two beauties and felt a little flattered.
