"Wow, this tractor is so beautiful."
"Oh my god, oh my god, I can't believe that's a tractor in front of me. It's a tractor!"
Adults and children alike gathered around, each with a bright smile on their face.
He touched the car again and again.
The elderly people were outside watching the machines.
Everyone has their own preferences, but what they all have in common is that they are very happy.
The captain felt extremely proud when he saw that the members were so happy as if they were celebrating the New Year in advance.
Yang Mumu and Gu Xingzhou completed today's task, said hello to the captain and returned to the educated youth yard. What happened next was none of their business.
"Okay, go back."
Zhao Xiangdong thought of something when he said this, and called Gu Xingzhou again:
"By the way, Xiao Gu, when can you invite the director to our team for a meal? We'd like to thank him."
Gu Xingzhou didn't even bother to think about it and directly helped Shen Xingci to refuse. They could treat each other to a meal among friends, but forget about the captain.
"Captain, there's no need to treat him to a meal, and don't mention this matter in the future. This is not good. This is the result of our team's own efforts. He is just following the rules. There is no need to thank him."
Zhao Xiangdong thought about it and realized that this was the truth. After treating everyone to a meal, it seemed as if their team’s victory in winning the first place was not due to themselves.
But it was the result of our team’s hard work, and treating the director would have a bad impact, so the meal was indeed inappropriate.
"Yeah, you're right. Okay, then when you see him, tell him thank you and I'll bring him along."
"Okay, Captain, I'll bring it to you."
Gu Xingzhou can agree to this.
"Captain, we're leaving first."
"Go ahead, go ahead. I need to watch over here first."
The captain waved his hand and walked back to the tractor to stare at it, planning to release the most ferocious dog in the house to guard the tractor when he returned.
On this side, Gu Xingzhou lifted his and Yang Mumu's bicycles off the tractor, and the two rode back on their bicycles.
On the way, Yang Mumu smiled and said, "Xingci should not have much to do these two days, so ask him when he is free and when we can let him have our meal."
The captain’s meal is not edible, but their meals are edible.
Gu Xingzhou shook his head helplessly:
"As for him, I didn't even need to ask him. When I brought him food today, he picked it up himself, as if he couldn't wait to eat.
He said that once he reports his work in the next two days, there will be almost nothing to worry about and he can relax a little. He will come to play with us when the time comes, so we can prepare the backpacks in advance. He will come hunting with a bow and arrow, and it will not take more than five days. "
"Well, we can prepare some food in advance and see when he can come. He should be able to come the day after tomorrow."
Yang Mumu guessed.
Gu Xingzhou shook his head: "Based on my understanding of him, I guess it must be the fifth day.
Sure enough, day after day, after the third day guessed by Yang Mumu, it went straight to the fifth day guessed by Gu Xingzhou, and in the end it really was the fifth day.
At seven o'clock in the morning of the fifth day, Shen Xingci stood in front of them in casual yet capable clothes, with a bow and arrow on his back.
Shen Xingci looked at them energetically and said:
"I'm here, I'm here to see you. Let's go. I can't wait to go hunting in the mountains. I've been so busy lately that I've lost all my energy. I must relax today."
"Okay, come in and wait for a moment. I'll carry some things. I'll definitely take you to relax today."
Gu Xingzhou pulled him into the house and just hung a kettle, a sack, a small bag and a backpack on him.
Yang Mumu also carried a backpack, some water, a knife, enough sacks, and brought a coolie named Song Yan along.
Liu Qingwan took on the task, "Mumu, I won't go then. I'll prepare dinner in the house and wait for you to come back for lunch."
Yang Mumu shook his head:
"No need for lunch. It won't be long until noon. We won't be back. We took some dry food with us and planned to have a simple meal in the mountains at noon. We will have a big dinner in the evening when we come back from hunting."
Liu Qingwan thought about it and it made sense. There were only five hours until noon, and it would take some time to go back and forth. Not much time would be actually spent on hunting, and this time might not necessarily yield any gains. It would indeed take too much time to come back to eat.
"That's fine. I'll cook dinner tonight and prepare the seasonings for cooking. When you bring the meat back, we can start cooking it right away."
Liu Qingwan was excited just thinking about it, and said to Yang Mumu, "Mumu, what do you think you will get? I'll prepare the ingredients first."
"Okay, okay, let me think about it. There must be rabbits. I know there is a rabbit nest somewhere. There will also be pheasants. But I have prepared a lot of related ingredients. I may only be missing chili and garlic. If you want to prepare them, just peel some more garlic."
Yang Mumu handed a bag of rice to Liu Qingwan.
"Qingwan, if we are not back by six in the afternoon, you should prepare the meal first. We will be back no later than seven."
Liu Qingwan took the rice and nodded, "Okay, go ahead. I'll wait for you to come back."
"Then let's go into the mountain first."
Yang Mumu waved at her, and the four of them, each carrying a backpack, went into the mountains from the path in front of their house.
When they arrived in the mountains, they thrived like fish in water.
Shen Xingci looked at the green all over the mountain and suggested, "How about we have a competition? Whoever hits the most will cook a dish?"
Gu Xingzhou took out his bow and arrow: "Let me compete with you."
Song Yan was very self-aware and knew that he could not win, so he raised his hand and said, "You guys compete, I'll be the referee and help you pick up the prey."
Yang Mumu was squatting on the ground digging dandelions. She replied without even looking up: "I'll pick mushrooms, herbs, and wild fruits."
"Okay, Old Gubi and I will start now."
Shen Xingci and Gu Xingzhou shook hands to agree on a competition, and as soon as they let go of each other, they began to act.
Shen Xingci was the first to hear the noise in the bushes. He drew his bow and arrow and shot towards that direction. When he hit something, Song Yan ran over to pick it up.
A wild rooster with colorful feathers and a long tail was shot.
"Brother Chen, it's a fat wild rooster, it must weigh at least five pounds."
Shen Xingci boasted to Gu Xingzhou, "Haha, Old Gu, I was the first one to hit the target."
"I shot it, too."
After saying that, Gu Xingzhou shot an arrow. Song Yan hurriedly ran to the right again, picked up two rabbits, and shouted in surprise:
"Brother Zhou, you are amazing. You killed two birds with one stone. You actually hit two big fat rabbits!"
"Old Gu, you are really good at it. That's awesome!" Shen Xingci clapped and praised, his fighting spirit aroused. "Let's do it again."
In the following time, the two of them shot at pheasants when they saw them, hunted hares when they saw them, and shot roe deer with one arrow when they saw them.
The two of them had a great time hunting. Song Yan was smiling from ear to ear as he picked up meat, while Yang Mumu was having a lot of fun digging herbs with a small hoe.
Along the way, the four of them had a clear division of labor and reaped rich rewards.
Of course, neither Gu Xingzhou nor Shen Xingci could determine the winner, and they were still chasing each other in the exciting competition, with both sides evenly matched.
Gu Xingzhou smiled when he saw a yellow dot in the bushes, and prepared his bow and arrow. Shen Xingci also saw it and pulled the bow towards that direction.
Song Yan squatted beside Yang Mumu and said softly, "Sister Mu, who do you think will be the winner?"
