Reborn at 60: I Helped My Sister Get Rich Starting from Hunting
Chapter 52 Learning from Comrade Zhang Yang
Wang Zhaodi had just turned to her side, closed her eyes, and prepared to heal her fragile heart, which had been battered by the day, by taking a nap.
Who knew Wang Jie would be so blind, stepping on her sore spot and shouting!
"What do you mean by 'not enough for me to eat'?"
"Did I eat your ration?!"
"Every bite I eat is my own food! What business is it of yours how much I eat?"
"Brother! Do you see any other guy who's as idle as you, all you do is brag and spank all day?"
"Since you have so much free time, why don't you go and do all the chores around the house? Go help your mother! You're only good at bullying your own family, you're useless!"
Wang Jie: “…”
He only said one sentence, and Wang Zhaodi replied with five or six sentences in one breath!
What's wrong with this girl? Did she eat gunpowder?
But then he remembered that his mother and sister had taken a bunch of kids to Zhangjiatun today to demand justice.
Judging from Wang Zhaodi's dejected appearance, things probably won't go so smoothly.
Wang Jie chuckled dryly, "Since they're already asking for meat, it means the Zhang family is still feeling guilty! If they do it once, they'll do it again. Why not go again tomorrow? We can ask for more tomorrow!"
Wang Zhaodi almost pulled off the blanket beside her, thinking she might as well smother this pig brain to death!
“That little bit of meat wasn’t given to us by the Zhang family at all! The Zhang family didn’t give us a single hair!” Wang Zhaodi roared.
Wang Jie's eyes widened. "Huh?! That wretched woman Zhang Yan is actually being so dishonest? You were already lying on the cart! How could she not bring out her belongings to rescue you?"
"Well, that's a question for you. Brother, look what kind of wife you married! She's driving Mom and me crazy!"
Wang Zhaodi said angrily, "Didn't you say they promised to give you eighty-eight yuan? In my opinion, they're still the same as before! They won't be able to come up with that money in a month! They're just trying to fool you!"
Wang Jie puffed out his chest. "It's better if he doesn't return it! If he doesn't, I'll have even more reason to go to his house and snatch him away!"
He narrowed his eyes and said in a sinister tone, "When the time comes, I'll go and rob the adults and children. You can wander around the rest of their house and see what you can take, and bring it all back!"
Speaking of robbing, Wang Jie thought of his mighty uncle.
"When the time comes, let my uncle go too! He should bring his hunting rifle, and it would be best if he brought a few brothers from Mingming's squad to keep things in check for us!"
Qian Chunfen was furious. "You're still thinking about your uncle! He doesn't care about us at all!"
Wang Jie was confused. "Isn't my uncle busy? He's usually very good to us."
Qian Chunfen slammed the bowl down on the small kang table, the soup wobbling and spilling a few drops, which pained Wang Jie.
He quickly plopped down on the kang (a heated brick bed), stood guard by the kang table, and waited for Qian Chunfen to finish speaking.
Qian Chunfen also stared at Tang, "If their wolf-hunting incident hadn't blown up like this... I wouldn't even have known they'd hunted a wolf! Luckily, the commune handled it fairly, distributing the wolf meat among the people from both villages. Otherwise, do you think you would have gotten a bite?"
Wang Jie didn't understand what he meant and blinked rapidly.
Wang Zhaodi couldn't stand it anymore and gave an explanation.
"It was all my uncle's idea to send us to the Zhang family today! He called us over first, saying that he had gotten into a fight with Zhang Yang while hunting in the mountains. He said that the kid has been acting arrogantly lately, and that we should go over and teach him a lesson, and also urge him to give us money, and squeeze some things out of his house!"
Wang Jie was even more confused, "I know all of this..."
Wang Zhaodi slammed her fist on the small kang table.
"But he didn't mention at all that the conflict between the two groups was because of wolves! That means the wolf meat was still in the hands of our village's militia at that time! My uncle just told my mother and me to cause trouble, but he didn't mention anything about dividing the meat. So he didn't intend to give my mother a share!"
The more Qian Chunfen thought about it, the more something seemed off. "If he had even considered dividing the meat back then, our family would have gotten much more than just a few ounces!"
Looking at the soup in front of her, Wang Zhaodi felt that it was already bitter before she even took a sip!
Five or six pounds of meat suddenly becomes only six or seven ounces. Who wouldn't feel bitter in that situation?
Wang Jie finally understood what the mother and daughter meant, but he still had different opinions.
“My uncle isn’t that kind of person! Given the circumstances at the time, it must have been inconvenient to divide the meat… otherwise, how did the wolf end up in the commune’s hands?”
Qian Chunfen ground her molars without making a sound.
She knew perfectly well what kind of person her brother, who shared the same mother, was!
But it was precisely because Qian Weiguo acted dishonestly this time and did not think of his own family members first that Qian Chunfen came up with a new idea.
"Later, take two or three pounds of sweet potatoes and go see your uncle! He said he sprained his ankle and injured his nose while hunting in the mountains. As his nephew, you should of course take good care of him! That way, when you go back to ask for those eighty-eight yuan, he will personally stand up for you!"
Qian Chunfen spoke with great conviction.
Wang Zhaodi realized that her mother was trying to use her eldest uncle to deal with the Zhang family.
Wang Jie was the only one out of sorts; after listening, he exclaimed, "Great!"
"Mother is right! With Uncle backing us up, let's see what Zhang Yang and Zhang Yan can do against us!"
……
While Lin Qiushui and Zhang Yan were chatting, Zhang Yang quickly made eight slingshots using rubber bands and leftover branches from chopping wood.
Four large and four small.
The large slingshot was given to Zhao Dong, and the other two were prepared for the Gao brothers.
The first pair of slingshots were given to Zhang Wen and Zhang Fei.
He handed the remaining one adult and two children to Lin Qiushui, who was preparing to take her leave.
"Carry a slingshot with you for self-defense. If you encounter bad guys, you can pull it out and fight back at any time."
When Zhang Yang handed her the items, he was worried that she wouldn't know how to use them, so he borrowed Zhao Dong's slingshot and gave Lin Qiushui a simple lesson.
Neither of them was working at the moment, so neither of them was wearing gloves.
Zhang Yang's rough fingertips accidentally touched Lin Qiushui's delicate hand, and she trembled slightly as if she had been slightly shocked.
Her face suddenly turned bright red.
However, Zhang Yang did not notice this small detail and was still focused on explaining how to use the slingshot to Lin Qiushui.
Lin Qiushui took a deep breath.
Has her face gotten worse lately?
Why do I become famous so easily!
Comrade Zhang Yang is wholeheartedly teaching her self-defense skills; she can't be thinking about her girlish fantasies all day long!
She should learn from Zhang Yang's diligence and competence, and become a useful person to the commune!
Lin Qiushui suppressed her whimsical thoughts and listened attentively to Zhang Yang's lesson.
Zhang Yang solemnly demonstrated to Lin Qiushui: "To use a slingshot well, just knowing how to pull it back is far from enough."
"The way you push the bow and the position of your back hand are both important."
