Siheyuan (traditional courtyard house): 52 years of farming, producing hundreds of millions of tons

Jia Zhangshi was chased by an owl and scrambled out of the grove.

"You just wait, I've found your hideout. You can't escape. I'll come back and capture your whole family, roast them, and eat them!"

Jia Zhangshi made some harsh remarks.

He stormed back to the courtyard house in a huff.

"Hey, Jia Zhangshi, why is your face all bruised and swollen?"

"Why are your clothes torn?"

The three women were shocked.

"You didn't actually find the owl, did you?"

The three aunties speculated.

"I didn't expect it?"

"I found it! Tomorrow, I'll go to the woods in the western suburbs, catch the owl, and roast it for meat!"

Jia Zhangshi was very pleased with herself.

"Judging from your appearance, you can't beat the owl. You'll be the one who gets killed by the owl. It's not certain who will eat whom!"

The three women made sarcastic remarks.

"You wait, I'll catch that owl tomorrow and show you how I eat her flesh!"

Jia Zhangshi went home in a huff.

It wasn't that she didn't want to have a good argument with the third aunt, but she was too tired to yell at anyone and just wanted to go home, lie down, and get a good night's sleep.

It's time to leave work.

Jia Dongxu returned home.

"Dongxu, I found an owl. Come with me to catch one tomorrow."

Jia Zhangshi was very excited.

"Did you find it?"

"Where did you find it?"

Jia Dongxu was very surprised.

He thought Jia Zhangshi was lazy and would give up after a few days of searching because she found it tiring. He never expected that she would persevere and actually find the owl!

"In the woods on the western outskirts, there was a huge owl, definitely worth more than a chicken meat."

"Catching an owl is like catching a chicken."

Jia Zhangshi swallowed hard.

"Mom, according to you, owls are high up in the trees, how can we catch them?"

"I can't climb trees, and neither can you."

Jia Dongxu shook his head.

"I've got it, burn it."

"Burn down the tree, and the owl will fall down."

Jia Zhangshi came up with a good idea.

"Mom, do you want to go to jail?"

"Murder and arson are serious crimes, and setting fires in the wild is also illegal!"

Jia Dongxu shook his head.

Setting fires in the wild is prohibited, primarily to prevent fires.

at this time.

Yan Jiecheng went to find Wan Ping'an.

He had just heard from the third aunt that Jia Zhangshi had found an owl in the western suburbs.

"The western suburbs?"

Which area exactly?

Wan Ping'an frowned slightly.

The western suburbs is not an exact location, but a general term for the western suburbs of the city, which includes several woodlands. Which woodland did Jia Zhangshi go to?

"It seems to be the grove of trees near the old water tower."

Yan Jiecheng was also unsure.

"Come with me and see if we can find it before dark."

Wan Ping'an wants to catch an owl.

He was certain that Jia Zhangshi (the one with the money) hadn't given up either. If he arrived too late and Jia Zhangshi came up with a plan, she would definitely catch the owl and roast it for meat.

The two set off together and soon arrived in the western suburbs.

"Grandpa, do you know which grove of trees has owls?"

He walked peacefully and smilingly toward an old man by the roadside.

"owl?"

“I’ve seen them, but I don’t know where they live.”

The old man shook his head.

After asking seven or eight people, when they finally got a clue from an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, they learned that he had stolen owl eggs.

“Take us there, and I’ll give you two cents.”

Wan Ping'an asked the little boy to lead the way.

Less than ten minutes later, they arrived at a grove of trees and found a big tree. The boy pointed to a hole in the tree and said there was a nest of owls there.

Wan Ping'an gave him two cents and sent him away.

"Brother Ping An, I see an owl's nest. It's about seven or eight meters off the ground, and the trunk is so smooth. Can we climb up there?"

Yan Jiecheng gave it a try.

The tree trunk is thick and relatively smooth. Do I want to climb it?

Basically impossible!

Unless you have specialized tools.

The problem is that the two of them came empty-handed, without even a rope. How were they going to climb up?

Gah!

An angry bird's cry came from overhead.

An owl circled above the two of them, trying to drive them away.

"Have it!"

Wan Ping'an came up with a solution.

"What's up?"

Yan Jiecheng didn't react in time.

"Jiecheng, go to my house and bring two long ropes. The ropes are hanging behind my door. I'll be waiting for you here."

"Catch the owl, and I'll give you five dollars."

Under Yan Fugui's influence, the Yan family members are all very good at scheming and have a strong sense of the future.

Yan Jiecheng's eyes lit up when Wan Ping'an mentioned payment.

"Brother Ping An, wait for me, I'll be right back."

Yan Jiecheng turned and ran away.

five yuan!

It filled him with energy.

Yan Jiecheng had just left when the owl circling in the air saw that Wan Ping'an was still lingering and got angry!

Dive!

They extended their sharp claws at Wan Ping'an!

Chapter 148 Catching an Owl: Jia Zhangshi Extorts an Old Woman

The owl took the initiative to attack, and Wan Ping'an almost burst out laughing. Who gave it the courage?

Does it know Fish Leong?

As a master of Bajiquan, even if ten owls attacked together, let alone one owl, they wouldn't be able to hurt a single hair on his head.

"Come down!"
