Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Yang Shouye quickly jogged out of the Lu family's courtyard.

As the jeep drove by, his height dropped from 1.7 meters to less than 1.6 meters.

He bowed and nodded, his face crinkling with smiles.

"Oh dear, County Chief Hao, what brings you here? Why didn't you send someone to let us know beforehand?"

Hao Limin's smile faded, his expression turned serious as he looked at Yang Shouye.

I really dislike his obsequious manner.

Hao Limin came from a military background. Back when he fought against the Americans, he was the company commander of a spearhead company, a unit that specifically fought the American devils head-on.

They crawled back from a pile of dead bodies.

They admire tough guys the most and hate spineless guys.

Don't let his position as a county magistrate fool you; he wouldn't even bow to a mayor or provincial governor.

So instead of answering Yang Shouye's question, she asked directly:

"What are you doing here? Don't you live in Shuiling Town?"

"Oh, oh, oh... I'm here to work, to work!"

"What kind of official business is this, with militia members involved?"

Yang Shouye was conflicted, unsure whether he should say that he had come to confront the perpetrator.

Just then, a sidecar motorcycle drove up.

Above is a policeman in a dark blue uniform, and in the sidecar is Ding Dahu.

It turned out that Ding Dahu had gone to the town's police station to report the crime early that morning.

Of course, it was Yang Shouye who instructed him to do this.

Director Zuo has been caught hunting without permission and not handing in his weapons. He may also be possessing firearms of unknown origin. This is no small matter.

The Wildlife Protection Law, drafted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry in 73, has not yet been fully implemented.

However, local officials have already become aware of the need for management.

Hunting is allowed, but you need permission from the local militia.

Moreover, possession of firearms must be documented and registered.

Possessing firearms of unknown origin without authorization is still illegal.

Upon hearing that the commune director had gone, Director Zuo Shouquan immediately rode his motorcycle over with Ding Dahu.

When I arrived, I saw that the county magistrate's car was also there.

Zuo Shouquan then told Ding Dahu that it was the county magistrate's car.

Seeing the county magistrate standing with Yang Shouye, Ding Dahu immediately perked up:

Come over and salute first:

"Greetings, County Magistrate! This is just a small matter from our village that we're troubling you with; we're truly ashamed!"

Hao Limin shook his head: "I was just passing through Lincheng on my way to a meeting, I didn't come here specifically. What happened here?"

Ding Dahu pointed at Lu Yao:

"This kid hunted illegally and didn't even hand it in! And he's even helped me suspect he's possessing firearms!"

Hao Limin looked at Lu Yao inside the wall:

"Is this the child?"

"It's him!"

Hao Limin squinted at Lu Yao, who had a stubborn look on his face.

Waving:

"Young man, come here!"

Lu Yao showed no fear and nimbly climbed over the earthen wall, which was more than a meter high.

He appeared to be incredibly agile.

Standing in front of him, he exudes a heroic and spirited air!

What a fine young man!

This veteran loved it so much!

"Did you kill all the wolves in the yard? Where did you get the gun?"

"Reporting to the leader, it was the Oroqen brothers I encountered who helped me kill them!"

"They killed wolves and they'll give them all to you?"

"Reporting to the leader, because I saved their tribe's girl, they've given me extra food as a token of their gratitude!"

Hey!

The answer was concise and to the point.

Hao Limin grew increasingly fond of it.

Just as he was about to speak, Ding Dahu yelled from the side:

"You're lying!"

Hao Limin was startled:

"Just say what you want to say, why are you yelling!"

Yang Shouye glared angrily at Ding Dahu.

I thought to myself, "Didn't you see I was hunched over when I spoke? Don't you know how to be more composed in front of the boss?"

Ding Dahu was a rough man, and at this moment he just wanted his leader to help him vent his anger.

He said in a loud and gruff voice:

"Hey kid, tell me, didn't you hunt a wild boar the day before yesterday and not hand it in? You say you don't have a gun? Who believes that? Dare I come into the house and search it?"

"What right do you have to break into my house and ransack it?"

Lu Yao glared and blocked Ding Dahu.

His gun really was at home.

I'll put it in the branch when I have time.

It was under the mattress at the end of the kang last night.

He even let Lu Xiaoqian hold it and stroke it for a while.

I put it back in the quilt pile this morning.

Jiang Guizhi asked him where he came from, and he said that Batu and the others left it to him.

He told the mother and daughter not to tell anyone else.

If we were to actually search inside now, we would definitely be able to find something in that small space of just over ten square meters.

At this moment, Ju Wen spoke up:

"So you're Captain Ding? I saw you with Ge Sanwang yesterday, didn't you come by? Why aren't you done yet? Isn't it a good thing that Comrade Lu hunted wolf meat and distributed it to all the elderly people in the village? Why do you have to make things difficult for him?"

Ding Dahu then noticed Ju Wen.

I remembered that she was the young girl who came with the head of the armed forces department last night.

Standing next to the county magistrate today, he is certainly no ordinary person.

He didn't dare to argue with Ju Wen.

But I'm not willing to give up.

Muttering:

"Hmph, do you guys have some kind of relationship with that country bumpkin? If you do, I don't care whether he breaks the law or not!"

These were just the thoughts of a rough man, but Hao Limin found them very grating.

Are you accusing me of favoritism?

"Who would dare! You're the leader!"

Hao Limin smiled.

Ding Dahu was outspoken, which he actually found better than the obsequious Yang Shouye.

So he asked Lu Yao:

"Young man, you really don't have any guns hidden away, do you?"

"No!"

Lu Yao felt a little uneasy, but at this moment he could only be stubborn.

Hao Limin said to Ding Dahu, "You have no right to break into other people's houses."

Then look at Zuo Shouquan:

"Xiao Zuo, go and take a look."

Zuo Shouquan was somewhat surprised that the county magistrate knew his surname was Zuo.

There are seven or eight police stations in one county town.

There are also police stations in the twenty or so subordinate townships.

The director had only met the county head at certain conferences and had no opportunity to meet him alone.

So it's normal that he knows the county magistrate, but it's not easy for the county magistrate to know that there's a Director Zuo in Shuiling Town.

Zuo Shouquan quickly stood at attention and saluted:

"yes!"

Then Hao Limin said to Lu Yao:

"If we are upright, we have nothing to fear!"

Actually, his words were meant to encourage Lu Yao.

Because he believed Lu Yao.

Moreover, at this moment, he was inclined to promote Lu Yao.

For no particular reason, just because I like it.

On his way to the meeting, he became very interested when Ju Wen mentioned Lu Yao, the boy who had killed dozens of wolves.

We just happened to be passing by, so I asked the driver to turn around and say I wanted to see if this boy was as good as Ju Wen had said!

I was mainly curious because I heard from Ju Wen that her father, Ju Zhenghua, greatly admired Lu Yao.

But the moment I saw Lu Yao, my eyes lit up.

Speak appropriately, clearly and concisely, with neither servility nor arrogance.

If I were leading troops back then, I would definitely pat him on the shoulder and say, "Kid, come with me!"

But now, officials in local areas can't be so arbitrary.

He thought to himself that as long as the young man didn't have any problems, he could be promoted.

Zuo Shouquan agreed when he heard the county magistrate say that.

He said to Lu Yao, "Let's go inside and take a look!"

As he spoke, he entered through the gate and walked directly into the house.

Lu Yao followed him.

County Magistrate Hao, mindful of his status, naturally could not go inside.

Seeing that the county magistrate didn't move, Yang Shouye didn't dare to move either, and stayed by his side.

Although Ju Wen was very worried, she couldn't go in with him.

Ding Dahu already suspected that she was protecting Lu Yao.

So only Lu Yao, confident and prepared, followed Zuo Shouquan inside.
