Chapter 382
For the past two days, every night when Lei Meng came back from work, he would come to Lu Lu's place to chat and drink some wine together.
The news of Lu Lu's arrival was still spread, and many acquaintances visited the cottage. Some of the water and dog meat brought in were sent to the cafeteria, and some were given to these acquaintances who came to visit.
From time to time, Lu Lu would bring back two or three wild geese, or borrow a net to catch some fish in the river. When resting, he went to the mountains with Chen Xiuyu to pick some mushrooms, and the meals were always plentiful.
Seeing that Lu Lu had plucked so many water dogs and green-rooted mink for their fur in just three days, Lei Meng was also very envious. Now he understood why Lu Lu's childhood was so good.
As soon as these furs are dealt with, it's no wonder that he has lived hard on the farm for several years without eating or drinking.
Thinking of Lu Lu's proposal before, he was somewhat moved.
It was the same tonight, the two of them returned to the slab house, Lu Lu was busy dealing with the water dogs and green mink furs that had been brought back, while Chen Xiuyu turned on the stove and stewed the geese that had been brought back.
However, I waited until it was dark, but Raymond still didn't come over.
Lu Lu thought for a while, and walked towards Lei Meng's residence with another wild goose that Chen Xiuyu had taken care of and was going to let Lei Meng take back to eat.
When they arrived at their house, the door was closed tightly, but the lights were on. Two children, Lei Xiaolin and Lei Xiaomeng, were doing their homework under the lights.
Lu Lu knocked on the door, and Lei Xiaolin's vigilant voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
So Lu Lu turned to the window and knocked on the glass again. After seeing Lu Lu through the window, the two sisters happily jumped off the kang to open the door for Lu Lu.
After the door opened, Lu Lu glanced inside, but he couldn't see Lei Meng and his wife, so he couldn't help asking, "Xiaolin, where are your parents?"
"My dad was assigned to keep the corn in the shack tonight, saying that there was a field where the corn was ruined by wild boars. After my mother heard what people said, she took a torch and a cotton coat and sent them to my dad. !"
Lei Xiaolin briefly explained the situation.
Just like Hu Qiu, at this time of year in the branch field, those larger crops also need to be guarded, so it is not surprising to arrange people to guard them in the shack. Lu Lu has done it before.
"Both of you haven't eaten yet?" Lu Lu asked with concern.
"Not yet, I'll do it with my sister when I finish my homework, and we'll eat together when my mother comes back." Lei Xiaomeng is already very sensible.
Don't look at children who are only six years old. In these days, life is hard, and most of them are already sensible. They are fully capable of cooking, washing and so on, and they can even help their parents share a lot of other housework.
"Don't do it, go to uncle's to eat, and bring some back for your mother later..."
As Lu Lu said, he handed the wild goose in his hand to Lei Xiaolin: "Put this meat away!"
"Thank you uncle!"
Lei Xiaolin thanked Lu Lu very politely, took the wild goose, put it in the pot on the pot stand by the stove, and held it with another pot.
"Let's go, let's go eat, the food is ready!" Lu Lv urged.
The two girls had known Lu Lu well since childhood, and knew that Lei Meng had a good relationship with Lu Lu. In the past two days, they knew that he was good at hunting and often sent meat home. Turned on the light, locked the door, and followed Lu Lu to the rough house.
Back in the rough house, Lu Lu and Chen Xiuyu explained the situation, and greeted the two sisters to eat. If Lei Meng didn't come back, they didn't have to wait any longer. They just kept the big pots full of stewed meat and ate with their own bowls and chopsticks. up.
After eating for about ten minutes, there was the sound of fast running footsteps outside. Soon, Xue Shuqin arrived at the door, and after seeing the two children, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister-in-law, it's just in time for us to have dinner together!"
Lu Lu greeted Xue Shuqin who was panting heavily, and handed him a stool.
Chen Xiuyu was busy getting up to get Xue Shuqin more food.
Xue Shuqin forced a smile at the two of them, took the rice and chopsticks handed over, but did not sit down immediately, but panted and said: "Big brother, I want to ask you for a favor!"
"Sister-in-law, we are not outsiders, so just speak up if you have something to say!"
Seeing Xue Shuqin's abnormal expression, Lu Lu's expression also became serious.
"When I sent Raymond the coat, I heard from Raymond that he heard wolves howling. There may be wolves nearby. Let me come back and tell the field department to add some people so that we can take care of each other."
Xue Shuqin said anxiously: "However, I went to the field department and told the situation, and the field department manager said, what are you afraid of if Raymond has a semi-automatic in his hand, he just shoots when the wolf is coming, saying that Raymond has good marksmanship. Let him live. He also said that the field department is short of manpower and is busy rushing to collect them, so it can't be arranged..."
"I know my sister-in-law, which shack is Meng Ge in, and I will take the dog to accompany her tonight!"
Speaking of this, how could Lu Lu not know what she meant.
Moreover, Lu Lu also heard that the leaders of the field department also seemed to intend to target Lei Meng.
It is said that there are wolves, and such a dangerous thing can be said so lightly and simply.
If it was just one or two, it might not be a big problem for Raymond, but Raymond had already said that when he heard the howling of wolves, it was probably a pack of wolves.
On Yan's Nest Island, there is a large swampy wilderness, where wolves haunt. In addition, there are wild boars and blind bears, which often cause a lot of trouble to the farm workers.
Not to mention it was night, even in broad daylight, these wild animals could be seen from time to time in the tall grass around the field.
It's just that when working in the fields, most of the time there are not many people, and these wild animals dare not step aside.
If you are alone, it's hard to say.
So what if you have a gun?
This is at night, no matter how powerful it is, it won't work.
"Then I'll trouble you, brother, he's in Shack No. 86!" Xue Shuqin said gratefully.
Lu Lu looked back at Chen Xiuyu: "Daughter-in-law, you are going to live with sister-in-law and the others tonight, and I have to bring Yuanbao and them there. If you are here alone, I don't feel at ease!"
Chen Xiuyu nodded upon hearing this, "Okay!"
Lu Lulu had almost finished eating, so he immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks and took out the semi-automatic. Chen Xiuyu immediately helped Lu Lu tie the bullet bag.
Coming out of Xiushantun, he decided to take Chen Xiuyu to practice guns all the way, and also decided to hunt prey for a few days on Yan's Nest Island. Lu Lu brought out a lot of bullets.
He filled the bullet pouch and the bullets in the semi-automatically, then took the hunting bag, poured the soup from the still hot big pot filled with stew into the iron pot, put it in the hunting bag, and stuffed it inside by the way. Two bottles of Bird's Nest Island Baijiu. It's a little cold at night. It's good to drink some wine to warm up your body.
"Be careful!" When going out, Chen Xiuyu followed out with some worry, and instructed.
"Ok!"
Lu Lu responded, went outside to untie the reins of Chasing Feng, took the flashlight from Xue Shuqin, got on the horse, and rode away.
Yuan Bao, who was lying outside the house, saw Lu Lv move, and immediately followed, followed closely by five puppies.
In the evening, Lu Lu fed a lot of meat when he was dealing with Shuigouzi and Qinggen Mink. Lu Lu didn't dare to run too fast, worried that if he ran too fast, he would hurt the dogs who were full.
So, just trot all the way.
Although he left this place in his previous life and hadn't been there for many years, after returning to work again, Lu Lu's memory in the back of his mind was gradually awakened, and he has been walking around for two or three days, and he has become familiar with this land again.
In the shack of No. 86, Lu Lu knew the roads and trails in the past, and also knew that the place was a bit remote. It was on the side of the road in a mountain depression. Probably because of this, many wild animals come down from that place to harm the crops.
In the past, when protecting autumn, at least three people would be arranged in this shack.
But this time, only Raymond was assigned. No matter how short the manpower was, no matter how good Raymond's marksmanship was, it was somewhat unjustifiable.
At least in Lu Lu's view, Lei Meng's being targeted means very strong.
However, Lu Lu also knew that even if Lei Meng had some ideas of his own as a converted soldier, he couldn't easily make a decision for himself like him.
Raymond also has his own difficulties, the organization's arrangement, the whole family, when he chooses to become a soldier, he is doomed to face many situations beyond his control.
The night is pretty good tonight, and I can see the road clearly without a flashlight.
Lu Lu rode chasing the wind for more than half an hour. When he turned into the mountain depression, he saw a horse-frame-shaped shack beside the road and a burning fire in front of him.
Hearing the noise on the road, Lei Meng stood up and asked loudly, "Who is it?"
"Brother Meng, it's me!" Lu Lu replied loudly.
"Brother, why are you here?"
Raymond greeted him happily.
"My sister-in-law went to the field department to explain the situation. If they don't send more people, I'll come to accompany you!" Lu Lu got off his horse, and while talking, he led Zhuifeng to the side of the shed, and tied him to the side of the shed. On a small bush next to him, he looked at Yuanbao again.
None of the dogs made any fierce noises, and there should be no wild animals around for the time being.
"Won't the field department send people?" Raymond frowned slightly.
"It's because you are good at marksmanship and have enough bullets, and you are short of manpower, and the matter of harvesting food is more important..." Lu Lu simply mentioned.
"Fuck!" Raymond cursed in a low voice.
"Brother Meng, what's the situation now, sister-in-law said you heard howling wolves?" Lu Lu asked.
"It's not just howling wolves. I heard a noise more than 20 minutes ago. When I shone the flashlight, I saw two wolves on the grassy slope behind. When the light shone, their eyes were green..."
Raymond said with a serious expression: "I immediately fired a few shots towards the back, and the two wolves immediately went into the woods above, and there were still noises in other places. I don't know how many there are. I am relieved when you come. !"
"It's fine for the time being. My dogs are alive. The surrounding area is safe for the time being."
Lu Lu untied the hunting bag as he spoke, and took out the stewed meat and wine inside: "I made it for you to eat tonight, but no one came, so I had to bring it for you by the way!"
Lei Meng nodded, sat down directly by the fire, and opened the wine bottle without using chopsticks, took a sip for himself, then lifted the lid of the rice bowl, and with the flashlight shining on it, he grabbed a piece and ate it: "fragrant!"
