Chapter 436 I saw my prey, it’s so big!
"Are we going to Xishan Town?"
Chen Hui watched Huang Shuqing's car pass by Dongmen Town, and then to the next town, Xishan Town, and then to the first township in the neighboring province, which was at least two or three hours away.
"Well, I'll introduce you to a beautiful girl, and maybe you can do it." Huang Shuqing nodded.
“Although it’s very close, it’s been a long, long time since I last went to Xishan Town.”
Looking out the window, Chen Hui felt a little emotional.
"What's wrong with you? I'm talking to you about beauties, and you're talking to me about Xishan Town."
"How long is it? It can't be as long as in my last life, right?" Huang Shuqing complained helplessly.
"Well, about as long as a lifetime."
Seeing Chen Hui's serious expression, Huang Shuqing couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Is this your last life? Then your life is not very long."
"Uncle Shuqing, you can't say that."
"Hey, what's the big deal? We only have one life, and when we die, it's gone. Just enjoy yourself while you're alive!"
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe there are two lifetimes?"
"You're already dreaming in the middle of the afternoon?"
The two of them joked with each other along the way.
The car went around a few bends and after a bumpy ride on the old, not-so-easy road for more than ten minutes, the two of them arrived at Xishan Town.
Chen Hui got out of the car and looked around first.
Xishan Town has hardly changed from what I remembered.
Compared with the subsequent development of Dongmen Town, this place was almost stagnant.
"What are you looking at? Let's go!" Huang Shuqing patted Chen Hui's shoulder.
He played with the car keys and walked forward on his own.
Chen Hui followed along, walked through the town's residential area, and went up the mountain along a mountain road that was obviously specially prepared by someone.
"Uncle Shuqing, where are we going?"
"Didn't I tell you to find a very capable beauty?"
"I'm here to buy flowers, not to pick them."
Huang Shuqing was amused by what Chen Hui said.
As we walked up, I introduced the situation to him:
"Her family started raising Angora rabbits and selling their fur a few years ago, and later also raised chickens and ducks."
"In the past, it was Xiulian, Guixiang and a few others who came to buy eggs or chickens and ducks."
"I came here to play when I was bored one time, and I found that their yard was well maintained, and some of the flowers and plants were well cared for."
"Later, I gave her some advice, lent her some books, and helped her get some rare seeds and flower seedlings."
"She usually deals in some flowers and plants that are easy to grow. I will buy them when I need them, and I will also recommend them to my friends if they need them."
Chen Hui nodded in approval: "That's really capable!"
"To raise rabbits, you have to pull weeds, so I built a small house on the hillside to raise them."
"Her husband's family is in town, and her parents-in-law and children live at home."
"The couple are rarely at home and live in the mountains," Huang Shuqing continued.
"There's no way I can do that if she's a beautiful woman from her husband's family." Chen Hui said casually.
"What does this have to do with whether or not there is a husband? A girl who is willing to work can get married."
Huang Shuqing reacted, looked back at Chen Hui, and scolded with a smile: "Not a good person!"
Chen Hui grinned.
The two continued to walk up a little further.
From a distance, Chen Hui saw a whole field of purple morning glories, surrounded by the hostess to form an arch shape.
There are many flowers planted on the roadside outside the courtyard wall, which Chen Hui cannot name.
It looks pretty nice from a distance.
"Jiang Xiaohua, Wang Jianfei, are you there?" Huang Shuqing shouted twice at the top of his lungs.
The wooden door surrounded by morning glories was quickly opened.
A girl who looked to be about 27 or 28 came out of the door and saw Huang Shuqing waving his arms outstretched.
Chen Hui looked at Jiang Xiaohua.
She was good-looking, graceful and elegant, with a bit of the flavor of a lotus emerging from water. However, compared with my wife, she was still far inferior.
"Brother Shuqing, how come you have time to come here today?"
"I haven't finished reading the book I borrowed from you last time. I was going to bring it back to you when I sent chickens and ducks there during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
As Jiang Xiaohua spoke, she walked forward enthusiastically to greet Chen Hui and Huang Shuqing.
"Don't worry about that. I'm here to bring you business today."
"My friend wants to renovate his yard, so he came to see if there are any suitable flowers or plants."
"He is good at making money, you can charge him a little more." Huang Shuqing joked.
"Brother Shuqing is really good at joking. If they can make money, I can't just take their money."
Jiang Xiaohua responded and nodded to Chen Hui, "Hello!"
Chen Hui didn't say anything, nor did he even look at Jiang Xiaohua. He looked thoughtfully at a place in the distance.
The scene was a little awkward for a while.
Huang Shuqing patted him and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Excuse me, hello, my name is Chen Hui!"
Chen Hui came back to his senses and nodded in response to Jiang Xiaohua.
"Why were you in a daze just now? You didn't even notice that the girl greeted you." Huang Shuqing said.
Chen Hui smiled, hesitated for a second and asked, "Comrade Xiaohua, is it true that you have a gun at home?"
"what?!"
"Chen Hui, what are you doing?"
Jiang Xiaohua and Huang Shuqing were both stunned.
"Uncle Shuqing, I just saw the tail of something flash by over there."
"If I'm not mistaken, it's about this big!"
Chen Hui said while gesturing the size.
There are a lot of things here, and at first he thought he had made a mistake.
I carefully felt it several times and confirmed that it was indeed there.
It was slightly larger in size than the ones Jiang Xiaohua raised, and was strolling slowly nearby, showing no intention of leaving.
I don’t know if he has his eyes on the things that Jiang Xiaohua keeps at home.
"Wow, that's quite a big one." Huang Shuqing said.
"What does its tail look like? What is it?"
"I heard from the older generation that there were tigers and wolves on this mountain before. Could it be them?" Jiang Xiaohua was a little scared.
"Don't be afraid. It's a man's job if it happens."
"Why is Jianfei not here today?" Huang Shuqing asked.
"My mother-in-law has leg pain, so he went to the county town to get medicine."
"Even if he is a little stronger than me, he can't do these things."
"Or else, should we report it to the town government? Let them arrange people to fight?" Jiang Xiaohua said, looking worriedly in the direction Chen Hui pointed.
"I don't know what it is yet, but it's definitely not a tiger or jackal. Who has a tiger or jackal this small?"
"Comrade Xiaohua, you should have a gun at home, right? Can you lend it to me?" Chen Hui asked.
Jiang Xiaohua shook her head in embarrassment, "No, my man doesn't know how to use a gun."
"What about something else? A longer stick? Or a slingshot or something?" Chen Hui asked.
"We have a slingshot. Wait a moment, I'll get it for you." Jiang Xiaohua said as she went back into the house.
He took out a slingshot and a small bag of relatively round stones.
Chen Hui took the slingshot and turned it around to look at it. "This slingshot is good. It looks easy to use."
"Chen Hui, are you good at using a slingshot?"
"Don't let yourself get angry even though you haven't caught the prey yet. Just rush out now!" Huang Shuqing said.
