Early the next morning, Ji Changze got up and went out for a few more laps.
He squatted up the mountain for a while, made a small bow and arrow with branches and vines, and really squatted down to a pheasant.
The pheasant was already dead when it was shot down. Ji Changze just picked it up, thought about it, turned around and removed the vine from the bow and arrow, and wrapped its neck a few times.
Seeing its new look, Ji Changze nodded in satisfaction.
Now, this pheasant has died from a small bow and arrow.
It became a pheasant that was strangled and choked to death.
Death seems to have become more decent.
The pheasant must also be very grateful to him.
congratulations.
When he was carrying a pheasant home, he happened to bump into Ji's family getting up.
Ji's father and mother had thought that the younger son was still sleeping like before, but when he saw him coming in from the door with a pheasant in his hand, she was shocked.
"Nagaze, where did this pheasant come from?"
Ji's father was similar in appearance and body shape to Ji Changguang, and he was of the same honest temperament, so he immediately asked when he saw a pheasant.
Mother Ji was more mindful than her husband. She almost got up as soon as she saw Ji Changze carrying a pheasant in her hand, and hurriedly closed the door.
Although it is not as rigorous as the original investigation, like Ji Qishu from time to time to go up the mountain to get wild products is nothing, but can wild products be the same as pheasants?
This is meat! !
Nowadays, except for the pork during the Chinese New Year every year, the big guys can't get the oil and water for the whole year. To put it in a bit of an exaggeration, it is gluttonous and can't wait for a rat to be like a baby when it arrives.
But now that the year is not good, the mouse can't be seen anymore.
The door was closed, and Mother Ji quickly came to Ji Changze: "Yes, Changze, where did this pheasant come from?"
Ji Changze threw the pheasant on the ground, his face was full of the complacency that the Ji family were familiar with, and he blew aside: "I caught it, dad, mom, I'll tell you, how else can I say I'm promising, today? I woke up early in the morning and went out to the hut. As soon as I came out, I heard a pheasant crowing. It was annoying. Anyway, I couldn't sleep anymore. So I went up the mountain and followed that chicken crowing, and I found this chicken. Up."
As he said, he kicked the chicken on the ground: "I, as soon as I saw it, eh, my body immediately got vigorous. When I went up, I started chasing and it started running. Can it run past me? Two legs, I also have two legs, my legs are longer than it, no, after my personal efforts, this pheasant was caught by me, no, it was strangled to death and brought it back. "
After listening to Ji Changze's bragging, none of the Ji family present believed it.
Don't they know what Ji Changze looks like? Since he was a child, he has been vacant, let alone running past a flying pheasant, he can't even run a human.
Ji Changguang squatted down and picked up the pheasant and looked at it, and found that there was still weeds like vines around its neck. He looked up at his younger brother in a naive manner: "Changze, this pheasant died because it was entangled in weeds."
"Oh, is it so?"
Ji Changze's face did not change, and he immediately changed his words: "I just remembered it wrong, but it was actually killed by wrapping it around his neck with vines."
Oh...
Ji's family immediately understood.
It seems that this pheasant was not killed by Ji Changze, but it was entangled and killed by vines, and was discovered by Ji Changze.
They just said it.
Nagasawa is weak, and he is weak when he walks. How could he be able to run a pheasant.
Hey, young people just love to talk big.
Father Ji opened his mouth and opened his mouth: "Nagaze, is this pheasant you..."
Ji's mother suddenly hit him with her arm and motioned to him not to speak. Ji's father could only swallow the rest of the words, and then watched his daughter-in-law look at the younger son with compliment, and said in a child-like tone. :
"Hey, our Changze is really good, and we will catch pheasants. I said it a long time ago. Changze is the most promising."
After she finished speaking, she didn't think it was enough, and went to see Ji Changguang again: "Yes, Changguang, your brother is good."
Ji Changguang nodded, and said in cooperation: "Yes, Changze is promising."
He felt that his brother is so good, and now there is a rare thing that allows him to show off, even if it is bragging, he should cooperate.
He didn't count it as a boast, and went to see Father Ji: "Father, you say yes."
Father Ji also reacted, looking at his elder son, then at his wife, and at the pheasant on the ground: "Yes, yes, we Changze is amazing!"
Don't worry about how this pheasant got here anyway.
Why can't others pick up pheasants, but their parents, Ze, did it? !
Their parents, Ze, is amazing!
No one thought this pheasant was really caught by Ji Changze. After all, it was from his own family and knew that he didn't have this ability.
But to boast, it is still necessary to boast!
For a while, the yard of Ji's family was full of false praises.
It's rare to have meat. It's still such a fat big pheasant. Ji Mule can't do it. He just picked up the pheasant and said to pluck it to figure it out. It just happened that there was some salt left in the house, so the meat was marinated. You can eat it for a long time.
Ji Changze directly interjected: "Where is the stewed chicken delicious? Mom, I want to eat stewed chicken."
Mother Ji was embarrassed now: "Changze, how do you make this stewed chicken? We don't have an iron pot, so how can we stew it."
And now the team doesn't let themselves open fire, they live blatantly cooking, what if the smoke comes out and someone finds out.
"Isn't I going to my sister-in-law's house today? I took it to my sister-in-law's house. It happened that I came to the door for the first time and felt sorry for not taking something. The people in their city fired on their own, and there was no need to stew a chicken and sneak in it."
As he said, Ji Changze put his hand on Ji Changguang's shoulder and raised his eyebrows with pride: "What's more, my eldest brother has been taken care of by his sister-in-law since he married his sister-in-law. Although the brother and sister-in-law have a good relationship, how much do we have? I also want to help my eldest brother hold on to some scenes."
Ji Changguang was touched immediately.
He really didn't expect that his brother would be so kind to him.
Such a pheasant is actually willing to hand it over to his father-in-law and mother-in-law for him, just to support him.
Ji Mu's face is not so good.
Although the words Ji Changguang said yesterday made her feel a little bit more uncomfortable, but now a pheasant has finally arrived at home. With so much meat, she hasn't eaten two bites at home, so she is going to be sent to outsiders.
How willing to let her.
"We haven't eaten such a big chicken. Your sister-in-law's family is a worker's family, so you still lack this meat."
Seeing that the light in Ji Changguang's eyes dimmed because of his mother's words, Ji Changze looked like a fool:
"Big brother, Mom is afraid that our family will take a pheasant over, and it will be a shame for you, compared to my sister-in-law's house without lack of meat."
Where did Ji's mother mean, she was about to speak when she opened her mouth, but Ji Changze quickly grabbed her arm with his eyesight:
"Mom, this pheasant can't just be sent there. You have to deal with it. Come and I will accompany you to pluck it."
He waited to pull Mother Ji into the house before he put down her arm.
Mother Ji shook her hand: "Changze, what are you doing to stop me? Our family has let their family get a son. Your eldest brother is now someone else's family, and we are still giving them meat to eat. Why? !"
"Oh mother, why are you so stupid!"
Ji Changze looked like "I'm smart, I'm the best", and patted the pheasant on his hands: "Let's hold the chicken in our hands and can't stew it. Your son, I want to eat stewed chicken. Can you do it? "
"Then we can't give them all! Just send some meat, so a whole chicken, we can't eat it in the mouth, it's cheap for them."
Ji's mother is not at peace.
It's fine for a good son to go to someone else's house.
Finally, a pheasant came, so why not come to Liu's house.
"Mom, don't worry, take this pheasant, and I will definitely bring the stewed chicken back."
"Bring it back? Put the ready-made meat there, who would be willing to let it go."
Ji Changze: "Don't worry, your son, I have a way. Mom, I'll tell you. Don't say the things you told me just now in front of your eldest brother. Anyway, you can talk more in front of him in the future. Say his kind words and be considerate."
Before Mother Ji's eyes widened and became angry, he went on to say: "I told you, the eldest brother is not really a son-in-law, but you see how nice my sister-in-law's family treats him, if our family keeps treating him He pushed it out, and it's not good for him. Think about it, elder brother is still filial to you now. After a long time, he will be separated from our family."
Seeing that the look on Ji's mother's face turned thoughtful, Ji Changze hit the iron while it was hot: "Now you have to be nice to my eldest brother, so that he feels, ah, our family is so warm and really good to him, when the time comes, sister-in-law No matter how the family wins over the eldest brother, the biological parents who are good to him, and the father-in-law and mother-in-law, don't you know which one to choose!"
"But if it is replaced by his biological parents who are not good to him, and his father-in-law who is good to him, it will be impossible to say which one to choose."
correct.
Ji's mother was originally full of anger, but when the younger son said so, she gradually felt that it was like what Changze said.
Huh!
Her youngest son is smart! The mind turns fast!
outside
Ji Changguang waited in the yard with an uneasy face, craned his neck and kept watching.
Finally the door opened, and he hurried forward, looking nervously at the mother who came out, and screamed dryly: "Mom."
Mother Ji smiled and smiled, carrying a pheasant forward: "Changguang, your brother is right, your father-in-law and mother-in-law have taken care of you for so long, and our family hasn't thanked you for anything. Now it's rare to have pheasant. Mom will figure it out now and let you take it over. Thank you very much, in-laws."
Ji Changguang's eyes widened, shocked and even stuttered: "Mom, mom, do you really want me to take or take the pheasant back?"
"This is still fake."
The mother in front of him smiled very lovingly. In Ji Changguang's impression, he has never seen such a smile on Ji's face since he moved to his wife's house.
His moved eyes were all red: "Mom, I don't want this pheasant. This was obtained by Changze. You worked hard. You should keep it for food."
Ji's mother: I must keep them to eat!
But pheasants are delicious.
The son is more important.
She worked hard and smiled amiably:
"No, you have lived in Lao Zhangren's house for so long. You have to say something. After all, you are the son of our Ji family. Why are you embarrassed to live in someone's house for nothing? Good deed, mom will go get the chicken."
With tears in his eyes, Ji Changguang watched his mother carry the chicken to boil the water. He stood there for a long time without regaining his senses.
"brother."
Ji Changze knocked on his shoulder from behind: "Brother, I turned out some fabrics. You can help me pack those mountain products. The packaging is better, and it's easy to sell... No, it's better to send it to my sister-in-law's house, to make you look good. a little."
Ji Changguang was even more moved.
For his parents who gave up eating pheasant.
Brother who worked hard to prepare gifts for him.
He is so happy.
