Farmer's Favorite

With the bow and arrow behind his back, Zhuang Xinyan led the crowd out of the fence hut and went to patrol the mountains.

Although it is whether there are other wild beasts in the mountain patrol, it is just that if they encounter some prey, they will naturally not give up.

When the wooden arrow shot into the hare's eye socket again, everyone was no longer amazed at all. About twenty men went up the mountain, patrolled for half a day, and each of them carried some prey on their shoulders. .

And these were not hunted by themselves at all, but carried by Zhuang Xinyan. Except for him who harvested a lot, the others didn't even get a rabbit hair or a chicken feather.

Just because they made a move, their eyes just blinked for a moment, and the prey was already dead on the bow and arrow.

The original sense of admiration has long since disappeared without a trace, that is, the meaning of jealousy is gone, and the only thing left is admiration.

If he couldn't hunt any prey, Lin Baocheng could only pick some wild fruits and vegetables to go back, so as not to waste a trip, he muttered while picking: "Brother, teach me how to do it when you have time, just treat me as a teacher, really No, I can recognize you as a big brother."

Zhuang Xinyan didn't have any embarrassment after playing handsome for half a day. Today, he did it specially for these people to see.

Although his household registration is in Xishan Village, he is not a native of the village after all, and he is alone. If something happens in the village, most of the villagers will still favor his own people.

Now that he has shown such a skill, among other things, the village has to rely on him for the beasts in the mountains, and the more he is capable, some jealous people will inevitably take care of it, and it will save troubles from coming one after another. Although he is not afraid , but also impatient.

Zhuang Xinyan held the bow behind his back, and he said, "Okay, I will teach anyone who is interested. As for how much you can learn, it depends on your ability."

"Okay, we'll come back tomorrow." Lin Baocheng was so happy that his smiling eyes narrowed into slits.

Everyone present was interested in hearing this, but they couldn't help being a bit concerned. Zhuang Xinyan lived in the mountains. If it wasn't for his livelihood, no one would want to run up the mountains all day. After all, no one can say whether there will be any accidents, and They also have a lot of work every day, how can they have the time to travel such a long distance to learn archery.

A man helplessly articulated these difficulties, and many people followed suit.

"Yesterday, I discussed with the village chief that a yard will be built in the village in a few days. When the yard is built, it will be closer to you, even if you are children, you can come and learn if you want." Zhuang Xinyan didn't care. It didn't take him much work.

Relying on talent and perseverance, all he needs to do is to speak out his experience.

"Okay, when you want to build a courtyard, I'll help you."

"I'll go too. People from the same village naturally want to help the village."

"That's right, there is no need to spend money to hire people, we can build it in two or three months with a group of people."

One sound after another, everyone knew that Zhuang Xinyan was going to buy land and build a house. Before that, they were unavoidably jealous, but now they were reluctant to build the yard sooner. You may not be able to learn much by studying, but the children in the family are different. After studying for more than ten years, you don't want to be as good as Zhuang Xinyan, as long as you can defend yourself well.

With a smile on his face, Zhuang Xinyan responded to these words.

After training for about half an hour, a group of people went back and waited a few days for another tour.

When everyone came to the fence hut again, they put all the prey in their hands on the stone pier in the yard, and prepared to leave.

Looking at the prey piled up into a hill, Zhuang Xinyan picked out a dozen hares and pheasants and handed them over, saying: "Let's divide these up, I can't eat all of them by myself. "

"Sell it if you can't finish it. It's still fresh, and you can sell it for a good price if you get it to the town quickly." Lin Wuzhu persuaded, he came to the fence house yesterday to thank him, knowing Zhuang Xinyan's original life It's not easy. Although he is not short of money now, but he is so extravagant, he still has to save some.

"That's right, we can't accept these things." Lin Baocheng also shook his hand, one or two is fine, but they feel uneasy even if they take so many.

But Zhuang Xinyan forced it, he said: "Didn't you just say that you want to build a yard for me? I have eaten better in the past two days. If I really want to start work, I will be busy."

With this said, everyone really had no excuse to shirk.

Not to mention, Zhuang Xinyan's strength is so great, they just couldn't push him away...

After stuffing it out, Zhuang Xinyan also carried two hares and two pheasants, and followed the crowd down the mountain.

He first went to the house of the deceased old village head, ignored Lin Ma's refusal, put down a hare and a pheasant, and strode away. Then he came to the house of the current village head and gave the other two as gifts.

Village head Lin did not refuse the generous gift, but just wanted to do his best for Zhuang Xinyan and save him money. He put the dry tobacco on the stone pier next to him, and said: "Where is the courtyard going to be built? Do you have an idea? While the villagers are not busy, start the construction as soon as possible, and finish it before the autumn harvest, so as not to delay it until winter. It is not safe for you to be alone in the mountains on a snowy day."

"I came here this time to tell you, the village chief, that I want to build the courtyard on the south side of the village, on the open space beside the bamboo forest." When Zhuang Xinyan mentioned the place, Village Chief Lin frowned. Asked: "By the stream?"

Zhuang Xinyan nodded.

Xishan Village, Xishan Village.

Naturally, there are streams and mountains.

In the southwest of the village there is a small stream, not very wide, but it supplies water for the whole village.

The place Zhuang Xinyan mentioned happened to be Xitou in the south. There was a large open space there, with a clump of bamboo forest next to it, and the road up the mountain was on the other side of the bamboo forest. The open space is somewhat secretive, but after all, it is indeed a good place, and there is a reason why it has been empty until now.

With some disapproval, Village Chief Lin said, "That place is closer to the creek, isn't it? Are you talking about the open space uphill from the creek?"

"Exactly, there is an uphill slope at the edge of the open space. Even if the water rises, it will not be flooded. Next, I plan to build a high wall around the courtyard." Zhuang Xinyan said, he liked that place quite a bit, One side is the scenery by the stream, the other side is full of bamboo forests, and the mountains are not far behind.

And because of the boundary, there are very few passing by, which can also block the eyes of others.

Village head Lin hissed lightly, and after a while, he asked: "You boy, tell me, how do you plan to build this courtyard?"

Zhuang Xinyan smiled lightly: "Naturally, I will do whatever I want, I don't intend to wrong myself again."

Village head Lin shook his head in shock. He thought he was just building a house randomly, but he didn't expect it to be such a big deal. If it was before, he would have persuaded him a few words. People are jealous.

One or two people are fine, but if everyone is like this, even if he, the village chief, is behind him, Zhuang Xinyan's life in the village will not be easy.

But just now when his son told him about going up the mountain, Village Chief Lin thought that even without him, the village chief, Zhuang Xinyan's reputation in the village would get higher and higher.

He reached out and patted the shoulder of the man opposite, and said, "Okay, you decide."

Next, the two discussed the land deed and the materials for building the courtyard.

But at this moment, Lin Baocheng rushed in angrily, his face was very ugly. When he entered the room, he poured a pot of cold water into his stomach, and then began to say: "Lin Wenjue's family is nothing, dad, you don't care about this matter." You have to take care of it anyway.”

Hearing the mention of the name, the other two couldn't help raising their brows.

There was even a hint of coldness in Zhuang Xinyan's eyes.

Speaking of which, Lin Wenjue has something to do with him, or it could be said that he has something to do with the original body.

When Yuanshen saved the old village head, in order to repay his favor, the old village head paid for him to get his household registration and stayed in Xishan Village, and even rented him a small house so that he could have a place to stay.

I thought that I would finally stop wandering, but not long after such a day, the old village chief passed away unexpectedly.

Before the burial, the old village head's stepson's family drove Yuan to the mountain. Without the knowledge of outsiders, they even insulted him from time to time and robbed him of the money he sold the prey.

"What's the matter again, Lin Wenjue really thinks I can't deal with him?" Village head Lin was already furious without hearing what happened.

The main reason is that Lin Wenjue's family has caused too much trouble.

"Isn't this Brother Zhuang just gave Grandma Ma a wild animal? Lin Wenjue actually brought someone to snatch it. Regardless of Grandma Ma's age, he just pushed it. It was so dangerous that there was someone beside him. Something big has happened." Lin Baocheng was bluffing, if it wasn't for his father telling him not to cause trouble, he would have just stepped forward and punched him.

"This Lin Wenjue is not afraid of being punished by God." Village Chief Lin gritted his teeth.

The old village head and Mrs. Lin and Ma lived together all their lives, but they had no children. In the end, they adopted an abandoned son.

This abandoned son was Lin Wenjue. The old village chief and his wife loved this child in every possible way, but they didn't dote on him.

But he has a bad foundation, and he has been a bastard since he was a child.

Relying on the old village head's reputation to do evil outside the village, but in the end, the old village head cruelly wanted to break the relationship between them, but unfortunately, the old village head passed away before the relationship was broken.

Fortunately, the old village chief left. Lin Wenjue first drove Zhuang Erling to the mountain, and then drove Lin Ma to a hut on the pretext of not having enough rooms.

It's a pity that Lin Wenjue is still the son of the old village chief's household registration, and they can't manage it even if they want to, but they can only persuade him, but what if they can't be persuaded.

Village Chief Lin let out a long sigh, but at this moment Zhuang Xinyan suddenly stood up and walked towards the door.
