Chapter 215 Sheepskin Jacket
Chen Guoqing was somewhat moved when he heard this.
He looked at Zhang Pingan who was standing beside him and said, "Cousin, do you think we should sign up?"
Zhang Pingan shook his head, "Cousin, let's not go, we don't know how to fight.
There are big beasts in the mountains, and we were just delivering food to the beasts."
Chen Guoqing rolled his eyes at him and said, "There are so many people going into the mountains together, what are you afraid of?
Didn’t you see that Brother Zhou also went there last year? Brother Zhou doesn’t know martial arts either.”
"If we join the hunting team, we can get a lot more meat.
At that time, we can also make bacon like Brother Zhou, send it back home, and let our family members enjoy meat.
You know how hard it is to get meat at home.
Since we have the opportunity to get more meat, why not seize this opportunity and give them more."
Zhang Pingan stopped talking when he heard this.
If possible, he also wanted to get more meat for his family.
Since his cousin didn't say anything, Chen Guoqing took it as his agreement.
Chen Guoqing looked at Zhou Wenbing who was standing beside him, "Brother Zhou, you joined the hunting team last year. Is it dangerous?"
“The danger is certain.
But you also know that I am not very skilled in hunting, so I am definitely not good at it. I am only responsible for carrying the prey.
After all, if those good hunters carry something on their bodies, it will affect their performance.
They also have to patrol the forests around the village and stay in the mountains for a few days, and someone has to bring back the prey along the way." Zhou Wenbing explained.
Upon hearing this, Chen Guoqing hurriedly asked, "Then, if Ping An and I go to sign up, will they accept us?"
Tang Qiangjun curled his lips and said, "Even if they are carrying prey, not everyone wants it.
I signed up with Brother Zhou last year, but they didn’t accept me.
They said I was not good at work and that I was too weak to carry things on the mountain roads, which would cause me to fall behind and delay things.”
“They are not deliberately making things difficult for you, as many people from the village who signed up were rejected by them.
Just think about how difficult it is to climb a mountain, not to mention carrying prey and being constantly alert to possible dangers.
Everyone was busy getting on the road and being alert to danger, and they had no energy to pay attention to the people around them.
If you accidentally fall behind, it will be dangerous.
During the few days I went into the mountains last year, I was very nervous all the time, which made me exhausted." Zhou Wen was worried that others would have opinions about the village after hearing what Tang Qiangjun said, so he hurried to explain.
After saying that, he looked at Chen Guoqing and Zhang Pingan and said, "You two can sign up and give it a try.
But I think your chances of success in registering during the National Day holiday are relatively high, but Ping An’s chances are very low, after all, he is not strong enough.”
After hearing what Zhou Wenbing said, Zhang Pingan asked curiously, "Brother Zhou, are you still signing up this year?"
“You all know my family’s situation, so I will definitely sign up.
I worked out a lot this year and now I have a lot more strength than before, so it should be easier than last year."
“Then cousin, you should go sign up with Brother Zhou.
I won’t go. I’ll be rejected if I apply anyway, so I’d better not embarrass myself.”
Chen Guoqing looked at his cousin's small body, and thought about what Zhou Wenbing had just said, and agreed in his heart that his cousin was indeed not capable.
He no longer insisted, "Okay, then I'll go sign up with Brother Zhou.
When the time comes, I will give you some of the meat I get."
Zhang Pingan smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank my cousin first."
Thinking back to what the team leader had just mentioned, Liu Jingxue would also go, he quickly reminded, "Cousin, Liu Zhiqing will also go.
You know her abilities, why don't you and Brother Zhou go find her and let her take care of you when the time comes.
With her protection, you will be much safer when you go into the mountains."
After listening to this, Chen Guoqing and Zhou Wenbing also thought that this proposal was good.
"Let's go find her after the meeting," Chen Guoqing said to Zhou Wenbing.
Zhou Wenbing naturally would not refuse.
After the captain announced the adjournment of the meeting, Liu Jingxue was about to go home when she was stopped by Chen Guoqing and Zhou Wenbing.
The two told her that they were going to sign up for the hunting team and asked her to take care of them along the way.
The captain asked Liu Jingxue to go into the mountains with him this time because he wanted her to take care of everyone who went into the mountains. Therefore, she agreed to their request directly.
Anyway, Tuanzi is there, so as long as the range around her does not exceed 20 meters, it is within Tuanzi's surveillance range and it is not a problem for her at all.
After getting Liu Jingxue's agreement, the two thanked her and went to find someone to sign up.
The next morning, Liu Jingxue was practicing in space, and Tuanzi reminded her that someone was coming outside.
Liu Jingxue hurried out of the space and went to answer the door.
After opening the door, I saw a familiar-looking lady standing outside. She must be from the village.
"Auntie, are you here to see me?" Liu Jingxue asked.
The old lady smiled and said, "Liu Zhiqing, of course I came to see you."
"Auntie, please come in." Liu Jingxue hurriedly invited the aunt in.
"Liu Zhiqing, I won't go in.
I am here to give you something, and I will leave after delivering it." said the old lady.
As she spoke, she stuffed a package in her hand into Liu Jingxue's hand.
Liu Jingxue looked at the package that suddenly appeared in her hand, somewhat confused.
"Auntie, I don't think I exchanged anything with your family."
She remembered that in the village, only the wine she and Grandpa Chen's family had ordered had not been delivered. Could it be that she remembered it wrong?
The old lady explained, "Liu Zhiqing, this is not something you came to my house to exchange, someone asked us to make it for you.
You saved many children in the village before, and everyone is very grateful.
But the captain said you don't want our thanks and asked us not to disturb you.
But no one expressed any reaction and everyone felt bad about it.
I know you are from the south. It’s cold here in Northeast China, and you definitely won’t be able to adapt to it.
So we all pooled our resources to make you a woolen coat to wear during the winter.
Our family is good at this, so everyone just leaves the jacket-making task to us.”
"I know you're going into the mountains tomorrow. It's very cold there at this time of year, so I hurriedly brought you the coat."
When Liu Jingxue heard this, she wanted to return the package in her hand.
“Ma’am, I can’t accept this.
I saved the children, so I got a lot more meat. There's no need to make everyone spend more money."
The old lady quickly stepped back a few steps, far away from Liu Jingxue, "Liu Zhiqing, you killed the wild boar, so you deserve more meat, but it has nothing to do with saving the children.
You have been so kind to us, if we don't show any appreciation, we will feel guilty."
"Besides, the sheepskin and fabric for this coat were collected by everyone and made especially for you.
If I took it back, I wouldn't be able to explain to everyone, and they would scold me to death.
Just have pity on me, an old woman, and don't let me get scolded."
After the old lady finished speaking, she turned around and walked away, saying, "Liu Jingxue, don't chase me.
I am old and my legs are not flexible. When you chase me, I get anxious and fall down accidentally, which is not beautiful.
These are all little gifts from everyone, just take them.
We are all happy to see you wearing this dress."
After hearing what the old lady said, Liu Jingxue had to give up the idea of chasing after her and returning the things.
But looking at the old lady jogging along, her legs and feet were so nimble, and she didn't look at all like she was old or had weak legs as she said.
This old lady is quite cute.
