Chapter 194 Exploring the Wind

“It’s hard for outsiders to tinker with this thing, and it’s not cheap if you buy it yourself, but we can go hunting in the mountains by ourselves, so it won’t be wasted!
The village office still has two boxes of guns. You can use this half box first. When we organize the militia for shooting practice, we will give you more guns!”

Wang Jianguo placed the box of bullets at Yue Feng’s feet.

Yue Feng was considered an experienced person working in the forest ranger team office, but he was still a little surprised to see Wang Jianguo directly bring the bullet boxes over.

“So many, must there be hundreds of rounds?”

Yue Feng scratched his head, a little surprised.

I originally thought that Wang Jianguo would only give me three or five bags, or 180 pieces, if I came here to ask for money. But now seeing the size of the box, it seems to be more than that.

“Just take it if I give it to you! You said you asked me for a gun, that would be a bit difficult for your uncle. There are only two Type 56 semi-automatic rifles in the village gun cabinet. The township sends people to the village for random inspections from time to time. Without a reasonable reason, we cannot lend them out.

But it’s just a few bullets, I can still do this!”

“Hehe, thank you very much, uncle!” Yue Feng smiled, knowing that what Wang Jianguo told him was the truth.

“Where did this blind bear get killed? Where did this bear get killed?

That thing is very dangerous. Be careful when you take people up the mountain. It would be terrible if you accidentally hurt someone!”

“That’s not the case. After helping the forest farm hunt a bear last time, Zhou Jianchun gave me a note to borrow a 56 from the forest farm. Now there are four of us in the hunting team, with two guns in our hands. Even if there are some minor problems during the bear hunt, we can usually handle it!

By the way, have you contacted Minister Zhang recently?

The little eagle that I trained for him has already grown into a rabbit in the vegetable garden outside the village the day before yesterday. That eagle is pretty good. I’ll give it to the leader and it will definitely work well!”

“Finished? So quickly? Shouldn’t it take ten days or half a month?”

Wang Jianguo was a little surprised. In his opinion, he thought it would take another three or five days for the day to come.

“Things like this are definitely remembered sooner rather than later! My dad and I took turns staying up all night for a week, and the eagle was almost convinced.

It was because of this that I heard that Xin’er had to go up the mountain to hunt the wild boar king and it took two days to go back and forth. Otherwise, Minister Zhang would have come to get the eagle tomorrow!”

“Then, when is the best day for him to come and get the eagle? He should still be awake at this hour, so I can give him a call and let him know in advance!”

“The day after tomorrow. Let’s take a day off tomorrow to consolidate the work. If Minister Zhang is free the day after tomorrow, we can take him to the field to inspect the work in person!” Yue Feng said with confidence.

“Okay, wait a moment, I’ll make a phone call!”

Wang Jianguo said hello, got up from his seat and went to the empty room in the village office. Then the sound of a phone call was heard.

Three minutes later, Wang Jianguo came back.

“What a coincidence! The day after tomorrow is just right! It won’t delay Zhang Hongbin’s plan to go to the provincial capital. He originally thought that there was not enough time to train the eagle, so he planned to wait until you had trained the eagle before running an extra errand!”

“Hehe, it’s great to save a trip! When I get home tonight, I’ll stay up all night and I’ll definitely take care of the eagle!”

“This is a matter concerning your uncle’s future. It all depends on you this time!”

“Don’t worry, I will definitely not let you down!” Yue Feng said confidently, patting his chest.

……

After talking about the eagle, it was time for Yue Feng to leave. He said goodbye and got up to leave. Wang Jianguo accompanied him all the way to the entrance of the alley before returning home.

After seeing Yue Feng off, Zhang Cuilian came out of the house and into the yard with a flashlight.

“Jianguo, come and see!”

“What are you looking at? It’s so cold at night. What’s there to see? It’s just some meat!”

Yue Feng had come to deliver things more than once before, and Wang Jianguo had long been accustomed to the meat of these mountain animals.

“Just come over if I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?”

Soon, Wang Jianguo saw the bag of meat that Yue Feng carried over.

The whole roe deer in the back seat, half of the bear’s lower belly and half of the bear’s leg meat, the weight of the entire bag together is several dozen kilograms.

“So much meat! Xiaofeng, this is not enough!” Wang Jianguo said with some surprise.

“Otherwise I would have asked you to come and see! Could it be that these two guys heard some rumors?” Zhang Cui Lian muttered thoughtfully.

“What’s the news?”

“Don’t play dumb with me. What rumor are you talking about? Of course it’s that our family wants to recruit him as a son-in-law! Otherwise, how could they send so much meat over here!
I have been with you for more than 20 years, and you have never sent so much meat to my family!”

Wang Jianguo scratched his head, feeling somewhat unsure: “What are you talking about? I don’t go hunting in the mountains, so where can I get so much meat? Besides, although we haven’t had a good life over the years, we haven’t let you suffer. You have the final say in the family, and my family has sent a lot of money and supplies to my mother’s family every year!”

“Keep one of these roe deer legs for yourself, and I’ll send the other one back to my dad tomorrow to have a taste! And the bear’s belly, look how thick the fat is, cut some off and take it back with you!”

“Okay, we still have meat in our cellar, you can divide it up however you want! It’s not for the old man, it’s for others, it’s your filial duty!
I think we can’t delay recruiting Xiaofeng as my son-in-law any longer. Wang Tiezui went to Yuefeng’s house two days ago!”

“What? Wang Tiezui went to Yue’s house to propose marriage to Yue Feng?” “Yes, the villagers are not blind. Xiaofeng is so outstanding, he can make money, and he understands the ways of the world. His temperament is also first-rate and impeccable. If word gets out that he is looking for a wife, the matchmaker will trample the door of our house!”

“Now that you mention it, it seems like we really can’t delay it any longer! I don’t know what this girl of ours is thinking. How about I go to her room and feel her out?”

When Zhang Cuilian heard the old man say this, she felt a little more anxious.

“That’s what I meant. You’re the mother, so you can talk to Xiaona about this so that you can get it out!”

“Okay, I’ll talk to Xiaona and see what she means!
But let me warn you first, Xiaofeng is excellent, but if Xiaona doesn’t like him, our family will not engage in the feudal arranged marriage that is arranged by parents and matchmakers.

We must reach a consensus on this matter in advance. I only have one precious daughter, and I cannot let her suffer the slightest injustice! “

“Okay, okay, go ahead and divide the meat!” Wang Jianguo agreed repeatedly and waved his hand to end the conversation in the yard.

Wang Xiaona, who was not asleep in the room, was always paying attention to any movement outside. She knew about it since Yue Feng entered the house.

While her father was talking to Yue Feng in the east room, Wang Xiaona had been eavesdropping outside. Now she had heard most of what her parents were saying in the yard.

Even a little brat like Wang Mingyu knew what his parents were thinking, so how could a daughter not know it? However, Wang Xiaona had no experience in dating, and as a little girl, she was a little shy, so she was always nervous, but on the surface she seemed to be indifferent and unaware.

Wang Jianguo entered the house first, and a few minutes later, Zhang Cuilian also entered the house after dividing the meat that had been delivered.

The light was still on in her daughter’s room, and Zhang Cuilian knocked on the door.

“Xiao Na, are you asleep? Mom wants to talk to you!”

My mother really wanted to talk to me about Yue Feng, and Wang Xiaona felt a little flustered for no reason.

“Not yet, Mom!”

“Then I’m in!”

“Ok!”

Zhang Cuilian pushed the door open and entered her daughter’s room, and found that her daughter was reading a comic book of Dream of the Red Chamber.

“If I keep looking at this album during the day, my eyes will be damaged at night!”

“Oh!” Wang Xiaona put the book obediently on the small desk.

“You’re a grown-up girl now, and Mom wants to discuss something with you!”

“What’s the matter?” Wang Xiaona asked knowingly.

“What do you think of the second kid from the Yue family, Xiaofeng?”

“Very good, he sends game to our house every now and then, and helps my dad with things! What’s wrong?”

“You are an adult now, so I won’t beat around the bush. Your father and I have chosen the second boy from the Yue family and are considering having him become our son-in-law. Do you think it’s possible?”

Zhang Cuilian went straight to the point and brought up the main topic with her daughter.

“Oh, Mom~ How can you talk to your daughter like this! It’s so embarrassing!”

Although Wang Xiaona was mentally prepared, her cheeks still blushed when her mother mentioned this to her.

“Marriage is a woman’s top priority, there’s nothing to be embarrassed about!
It is better to marry well than to be born well!
Your dad also said that if you want to be a general’s wife, you have to marry a soldier first!
Xiao Feng is a good person with good skills. It has only been a short time since he was born, but he has already made a name for himself in the village. Among the young people of the same age in the village, do you think there is anyone as good as him? None!

Your father and I have watched him grow up since he was a child, and we know him inside and out!

If you like me, I will find an opportunity with your father to arrange the marriage as soon as possible!”

“I don’t hate him, but do you know whether he is compatible with me or not? He goes to the city every now and then, and he must meet a lot of people. What if he already has a lover? If the window paper is broken by then, it will be so awkward when we meet again!” Wang Xiaona said somewhat unconfidently.

Hearing her daughter’s doubts, Zhang Cuilian was slightly stunned.

She and Wang Jianguo would chat in bed at night when they couldn’t sleep and think about many problems.

For example, the families of both parties, whether the children’s temperaments are suitable, whether Xiaona’s parents-in-law will treat them poorly after she gets married, etc.

The only thing he didn’t consider was, what if Yue Feng didn’t like his girl?
It makes sense that parents love their own children. When parents look at their daughters, they are sure that they have all the advantages and no disadvantages. Besides, Xiaona is indeed excellent in all aspects. If she were not still young, matchmakers would have already knocked on the door of their house.

However, whether it will work or not is a two-way choice. If both parties are excellent, the choice will naturally have more variables. I always want to ask my daughter’s opinion, but I never thought about what if Xiaofeng doesn’t like his own daughter.

“Later, I’ll go to Xiaofeng’s house and ask around.” Zhang Cuilian thought for two seconds and continued.

“Okay, it’s better to be subtle and not make it too embarrassing!” Xiaona blushed and lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously playing with her hair.

“You don’t have to worry so much. My daughter, Zhang Cuilian, is so outstanding, how could he not like her? I’ll go to his house later and definitely help my precious daughter find her lifelong happiness!!”

“Oh, Mom!” Xiaona’s pretty face was filled with blushes, and she buried herself in her mother’s arms embarrassedly.
