Chapter 1393 Solving the Problem for the Ma Family

Seeing Zhao Jun, Ma Dafu, who had just had a fight with his two daughters, felt a little embarrassed. He smiled at Zhao Jun and said, "Jun, you didn't go up the mountain today?"

"No, uncle." Zhao Jun picked up what he was carrying and said with a smile: "Today is Sunday, I'm going to visit you and my aunt."

"Ouch!" Ma Dafu frowned and said with a hint of complaint: "Look at you kid, what are you doing here to spend this money?"

With that said, Ma Dafu threw his hand in the direction where Zhao Jun came from and said: "Hurry back."

"That's not possible, uncle." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "I bought everything, can I still return it?"

When Zhao Jun spoke, Ma Ling winked at him, and then said to Ma Dafu without waiting for Zhao Jun's reaction: "Dad, let's go home."

"Ah, go home!" Ma Dafu greeted Zhao Jun to go home, but Ma Ling followed behind.

But when he arrived at Ma's house, Ma Dafu opened the door and heard Wang Cuihua's roar coming from inside: "Is that damn kid back?"

"Cuihua." Ma Dafu stopped Wang Cuihua and said, "Hurry and make some sweet water, Zhao Jun is here."

"Ah?" Wang Cuihua, who was pinching the broom in her hand, had just walked to the door. When she heard Ma Dafu's words, Wang Cuihua hurriedly threw the kang broom into the kang.

Then, Wang Cuihua came out to greet Zhao Jun and said: "Come on, Zhao Jun, is it cold? Hurry up and get on the kang!"

"Auntie." Zhao Jun bowed slightly, nodded and smiled at Wang Cuihua.

The old couple greeted Zhao Jun into the house and handed over the task of making sweet water to Ma Ling.

The so-called sweet water is sugar water.

These days, sugar is a good thing. If you bring a pound of sugar to anyone's home, it is considered a gift.

The Ma family follows the old rules and treats their uncle as a distinguished guest. When the uncle comes to the door, he makes a cup of sugar water, which means that the life of the girl and the uncle is sweet.

In his previous life, Zhao Jun and Ma Ling had children. Whenever he came to his door, Ma Dafu would ask Wang Cuihua to make him sugar water.

Therefore, after returning to his hometown from the city in his previous life, Zhao Jun thought of the past and felt that he owed the old couple.

After Zhao Jun entered the house, he held the net bag in one hand and held the bottom with the other hand, and put the things on the head of the kang.

"What a kid!" When Wang Cuihua saw this, she immediately frowned and said, "Why are you spending this money to come to your own home?"

"I already told him." Ma Dafu echoed from the side and said, "I asked him to hold it and retreat. He didn't do anything he said."

"Then I can return it." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "I bought two bottles of cans for my aunt and a bottle of wine for my uncle. What will happen if I return it?"

"Then that's it this time, it won't happen again!" Wang Cuihua waved her hand, and then said to Zhao Jun: "I'll go up to the kang and chat with your uncle. I won't walk at noon, so I'll eat here."

Just as Zhao Jun was about to talk, he saw Ma Dafu raising his hand to Wang Cuihua and saying, "Hurry up and pack up all the fish. Let's stew them at noon. After that, we'll stew some rice."

"Yeah." Wang Cuihua responded, and then said to Zhao Jun: "Zhao Jun, you chat with your uncle, and my aunt will cook for you."

As soon as Wang Cuihua finished speaking, Ma Ling came in with a glass of sugar water. Wang Cuihua raised her hand and gestured towards Zhao Jun, signaling Ma Ling to send the sugar water over.

Zhao Jun also had no eyesight. When he took the sugar water, he asked Ma Ling: "Where is our little brother? Where are you playing again?"

Zhao Jun said that our little brother was doing this because he wanted to get close to him. Unexpectedly, she didn't want to hear him ask about Ma Yang. Ma Ling twitched the corner of her mouth and her eyes drifted to Ma Dafu next to her.

Zhao Jun was startled, and then he heard the door outside the house open, and then his uncle's voice came in.

"Get in here!" Ma Sheng yelled, "If you mess with me again, I'll beat you up!"

"Hey!" Wang Cuihua, who was in the outer room, hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop Ma Sheng, then turned her chin to the east room and whispered: "Zhao Jun is here. Go and see your brother quickly."

After saying that, Wang Cuihua returned her hand and gave Ma Yang a pestle after being pushed in by Ma Sheng.

Hearing that Zhao Jun was coming, Ma Sheng hurriedly walked into the east room. Seeing Ma Sheng come in, Zhao Jun called out to his eldest brother and made a gesture to get up.

"Sit, sit." Ma Sheng held down Zhao Jun, then sat sideways on the edge of the kang next to Zhao Jun, and said with a smile: "Brother, why are you so idle today?"

"There's nothing to do today." Zhao Jun said with a smile, "Come and see my uncle and aunt."

"Then let's eat here at noon." As soon as Ma Sheng said this, Ma Dafu said next to him: "Well, I asked your mother to cook and get the crucian carp seeds to stew for you. After that, I will weigh a few. vegetable."

As soon as Ma Dafu finished speaking, he heard Ma Yang's roar coming from the west room: "I can't! I can't!"

Hearing him yelling, Ma Dafu and Ma Sheng's expressions instantly darkened, but Zhao Jun was sitting next to them. Who were they showing their faces to?

Therefore, Ma Dafu and Ma Sheng hurriedly changed their faces and continued to warmly greet Zhao Jun for a drink of water.

At the same time, there were two muffled sounds in the west room, and then Ma Yang stopped moving.

"Oh!" At this time, Ma Dafu sighed and stuffed the rolled leaf cigarette into his mouth, then freed his hand to point to the door and said to Zhao Jun: "This kid, it's not a day to worry about."

As long as the young couple is not married, the new uncle Zhao Jun will not be considered a member. When Ma Dafu didn't mention Ma Yang's troubles, Zhao Jun was absolutely not allowed to ask.

But now that Ma Dafu started talking, Zhao Jun still had to ask.

"Uncle." Zhao Jun leaned forward slightly and asked Ma Dafu, "What happened to my little brother?"

"TMD!" Ma Dafu swore and said, "You're going to come last in the exam again."

"Ah?" Zhao Jun was shocked when he heard what Ma Dafu said. But he was pretending. He knew that Ma Yang was a kid who hunted pheasants and chased rabbits all day. It would be strange if such a student could pass the exam.

"I said I would not let him study anymore." Ma Dafu took a puff of cigarette depressedly and said, "This book is not enough to embarrass him."

Ma Dafu worked in the workshop. When a colleague in the workshop talked about the grades of his children and said how his children did in the exam, someone would definitely ask Ma Dafu "How did your child do in the exam?"

There was only one middle school in Yong'an Forest District. The children of Ma Dafu's colleagues in the workshop were in the same school as Ma Yang, and some were classmates with Ma Yang. In this case, Ma Dafu couldn't even lie.

But if he said that his child ranked last in the exam, wouldn't it be a joke?

Last time Ma Yang ranked last in the exam, Ma Dafu was laughed at by his colleagues. This time he ranked last again, Ma Dafu really couldn't stand it.

So, Ma Dafu thought of a way to solve Ma Yang's study problem from the root, that is, to drop out of school.

It is normal for children to drop out of school in forest areas and rural areas these days. If he doesn't study and take exams, Ma Dafu won't have to embarrass himself.

"Then my little brother can't do it, right?" Zhao Jun asked, because he knew what Ma Yang was thinking. Although the boy didn't learn much in school, Ma Yang could see his deskmate every day. If he dropped out of school, it would be difficult for the two to meet in the future.

"You're right." Ma Dafu looked at Zhao Jun and said, "This guy, he got angry with me when I told him not to study anymore."

Hearing what Ma Dafu said, Ma Sheng also sighed. Last night, Ma Sheng's second uncle sent a bunch of crucian carp seeds to his home. Xu Xiaoqing picked out the big and alive ones and asked Ma Sheng to deliver them here early this morning.

When Ma Sheng was delivering the fish, he happened to see Ma Yang being stubborn at home. After being slapped twice by Ma Dafu, the boy ran out angrily.

Then, Ma Dafu and Ma Sheng went out to chase him.

So, when Zhao Jun saw Ma Ling and Ma Dafu pulling each other, it was because Ma Dafu was afraid that Ma Dafu would be beaten by Ma Yang again in anger if he chased Ma Yang, so she tried to drag Ma Dafu home.

Zhao Jun probably figured out what was going on. At this time, he said to Ma Dafu: "Uncle, if you don't let my little brother go to school, what will he do?"

"Work at home." Ma Dafu said casually: "Isn't it like this?"

These days, children of fourteen or fifteen or sixteen don't go to school. They either learn from teachers, learn a craft like carpentry, or stay at home to farm and work with adults.

Hearing Ma Dafu say this, Zhao Jun decided to help Ma Yang. It's okay to talk and quarrel, but it's important not to be vague about the business.

Moreover, Zhao Jun arranged jobs for others, so how could he not help his brother-in-law?

So, he said to Ma Dafu: "Uncle, why don't you let me study for two more years? After graduating from junior high school, I will stay at home for a year, and then we will find him a job in the field."

Zhao Jun said this, which made it clear that he would help Ma Yang solve the problem of work in the future.

If someone else said this, Ma Dafu and Ma Sheng might not believe it, but Zhao Jun said it, and the father and son believed it without a doubt.

"This..." Ma Dafu was a little embarrassed, and at this time Ma Ling asked Zhao Jun: "What can my little brother do in the field?"

"I am doing forestry protection now." Zhao Jun said: "But I don't want my little brother to do this, after all, hunting animals in the mountains is a bit dangerous, and my little brother is too young and has never run in the mountains. After that, I'm thinking about it, and then we can find someone to arrange for him to check the ruler, wouldn't that be great?"

Hearing what Zhao Jun said, Ma Ling looked at Ma Dafu.

Ma Dafu and Ma Sheng both work at the forest farm. They certainly know that inspectors are a good job. If Ma Yang can become an inspector, he won't have to worry about finding a partner, let alone other things.

"Then let him study for another two years." Ma Dafu said so, agreeing with Zhao Jun's suggestion.

Ma Ling was secretly happy to hear this. After all, Ma Yang was her brother. Zhao Jun took the initiative to help Ma Yang find a job. Ma Ling was not only happy for Ma Yang, but she also felt that Zhao Jun valued her.

While Zhao Jun was chatting with Ma Dafu and Ma Sheng, Ma Ling got up and walked out. She wanted to go to the west room to tell Wang Cuihua the good news. But when she arrived at the door of the west room, Wang Cuihua opened the door and came out.

Wang Cuihua pulled Ma Ling, and then stuffed five yuan into Ma Ling's hand, and then whispered in Ma Ling's ear: "Go, girl, go to the grocery store. Buy two boxes of luncheon meat cans, and then buy some shrimp chips."

"Hey!" Ma Ling agreed and walked out. She didn't rush to tell the good news, and arranged lunch to entertain Zhao Jun first.

But when Ma Ling went out, she found that Wang Cuihua had followed her out.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Ma Ling asked, Wang Cuihua raised her hand and pointed to the warehouse, saying: "Zhao Jun is here, I'll grab a few handfuls of melon seeds and peanuts for him."

Ma Ling's family has melon seeds and peanuts, which were bought when Zhao Jun first took Ma Ling to the city.

"Mom!" Ma Ling looked at Wang Cuihua with wide eyes and said: "Aren't they kept for the New Year?"

Ma Ling asked this, not because she was afraid of giving them to Zhao Jun. But on the day those things were bought, Wang Cuihua locked them in the cabinet in the warehouse. It was said that no one could eat them before the New Year.

"Isn't Zhao Jun here?" Wang Cuihua rolled her eyes at Ma Ling and said, "Isn't it all for you?"

Wang Cuihua knew very well that the son-in-law was a distinguished guest, and being nice to the son-in-law was being nice to her daughter.

Ma Ling was very happy and went out to buy canned food.

Wang Cuihua not only served Zhao Jun melon seeds and peanuts with two enamel plates, but also went to the east courtyard next door and bought a big rooster for three dollars and fifty cents.

When Zhao Jun was a guest at the Ma family, Zhao Youcai was seeing off the guests. After sending one person out, he walked back cursing.

The man's surname was Chen, and his family was from the village of rogues, the same village as Zhang Lifu. He just came to sell yellow leaves.

And he sold a yellow leaf, then sat in Zhao's house for half an hour, smoked two cigarettes, and drank half a cup of water.

Zhao Youcai cursed because the business was too small. He charged twenty-eight yuan for a female yellow leaf, but he had to accompany him for half an hour.

Zhao Youcai just walked to the front of the house, and the black tiger on the right barked twice. Zhao Youcai turned around to see when he heard the dog barking, and saw Zhao Ling leading Wang Tian and Wang Xue at the same time.

When they saw the familiar people, the hunting dogs stopped barking and shook their tails one by one.

"Brother-in-law!" Zhao Ling greeted Zhao Youcai, but Zhao Youcai asked her, "Where is Qiangzi?"

"Qiangzi..." Zhao Ling hesitated for a moment, then responded, "He said...he went out to look for someone who sells roe deer. He wants to buy two, and then wait for that..."

"Mom." Before Zhao Ling finished speaking, Wang Tian said, "Isn't my dad going out to hunt?"

When Wang Tian said this, Zhao Youcai's face sank. Zhao Ling took Wang Tian's hand and shrugged, saying, "You kid, you don't listen to anything. Your dad went to buy roe deer!"

After saying that, Zhao Ling smiled at Zhao Youcai and said, "Brother-in-law, he went to buy roe deer. If you want to buy one, let our army go ahead and pull it. If you need to give a gift, give it."

Zhao Youcai didn't even believe the punctuation of Zhao Ling's words, but he couldn't argue with his brother-in-law and his wife. He just pursed his lips, turned around and walked into the house.

After looking at Zhao Youcai's back, Zhao Ling glared at Wang Tian.

As soon as Zhao Youcai entered the house, he saw Wang Meilan, Jin Xiaomei, Lin Xue, Xu Chunyanzheng, and Jie Sunshi, all wearing turbans, looking like they were going out.

"What are you doing?" Zhao Youcai asked, and Wang Meilan said, "We are going to Shunzi's house to tan the leather."

The old craftsmanship of tanning leather here is to stretch the leather, fix it on the ground, and then use wood ash to tan it.

The Zhao family collected so many fox skins, they were all newly killed skins, and they all had to be tanned one by one.

And to tan so many skins, you need a place.

Lin Xiangshun's house has three and a half rooms, and one of the big rooms is empty, just right for tanning leather.

As soon as Wang Meilan finished speaking, Zhao Ling led the two children in.

Seeing Zhao Ling, Wang Meilan tied her headscarf and said, "Sister-in-law, let's go now. You take the child to the west courtyard. Aunt Jiang and the girl are at home."

The girl Wang Meilan was talking about was Li Tongyun. Upon hearing what Wang Meilan said, Wang Tian subconsciously broke free from Zhao Ling's hand.

This child is quite naughty, but after just a few days, Wang Tian was intimidated by Li Tongyun.

The women filed out, and Wang Meilan threw a word to Zhao Youcai, saying, "We will be back late at noon, you can prepare a good meal for us at home."

Zhao Youcai opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Wang Meilan went out.

Zhao Youcai: "..."

There will be an extra update today, it will be a little later, around 1 o'clock
