Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

The air in Team 4 was filled with all kinds of cheerful smells.

The firecrackers started going off in the morning. In the evening, Li Qiang had already received his own box of small firecrackers, the kind that could fire 200 times. Although not as loud as electric cannons, they were not very powerful. A brave person could even hold them in his hand and set them off.

The firecrackers were given to him by Li Qingxia - Li Qiang didn't dare to ask his father for them directly, so Li Jianguo took out the firecrackers and put them on the fire wall to dry. There were two fire walls in the west room, the one in the corridor was hotter, and the one in the inner room was of average temperature, so there was no need to worry about burning things when drying them.

Not only can firecrackers be baked here, but also five-spice melon seeds can be baked - this year Liang Yuemei cooked some five-spice melon seeds. After cooking, she covered them with a cage cloth on the fire wall and baked them. Now they are served on a plate and placed on the table.

Li Qiang took the small whip, unpacked it and put it in his pocket, then took a stick of incense and lit it outside.

As for his friends, some picked up the duds that others had set off and played with them, while others just joined in the fun. Only a few of them could set off a bunch of small firecrackers as early as Li Qiang.

So Li Qiang is still the most handsome guy in the new settlement of Team 4.

Li Long drove the jeep to the south yard. He saw Li Qiang on the road and greeted him. Li Qiang was in a hurry to fire the cannon, so Li Long didn't let him follow.

Just as Li Long thought, the stove in the south yard was burning very hot. As soon as he and Gu Xiaoxia entered the house holding the child, they felt a wave of heat.

The stove was burning hot, probably because they were afraid that the child would get cold. The two took off the child's coat, but before he could change his clothes, Li Qingxia and Du Chunfang came over.

"Hey, Mingming Haohao has grown up again." Du Chunfang looked at the two children and grinned, "They are so well-behaved. They are not afraid of their grandparents and they even smile. Oh, they are so well-behaved!"

Haohao was clearly crawling on the bed and playing, looking at his grandparents curiously, and he was actually smiling.

"They know that you two are good to them." Li Long said with a smile, "The kids are a little older now, and they know what's good for them. Is everything ready for my eldest brother?"

"Okay, okay, it's ready." Li Qingxia said with a smile, "You guys stay busy here first, and come over for lunch at noon."

"Okay, I'll be there in a minute."

Before Li Long went to the backyard, Li Juan came over again.

She is older now, not as small as Li Qiang, and can run around and play by herself. Li Juan has consciously followed Liang Yuemei to do housework. After all, it is New Year's Eve, and there is still a lot of work to do.

Li Juan took some time to come over, one to see Mingming and Haohao, the other to see if Han Fang had come. Li Juan was a little disappointed when she didn't see Han Fang.

"Xiaofang and her mother are planning to spend the New Year in the county," Li Long explained. "After all, they are not family members, so it might be awkward for them to come over."

This was the result of a discussion between Li Long and Gu Xiaoxia on the way back - this was probably the reason why Sister Yang didn't come back with them to celebrate the New Year.

After all, they are a family. When they celebrate the New Year at someone else's home, good things will happen, but bad things will happen as well.

"Oh, then uncle, when you go back, tell her to come over and play when you are free. I will also go to the county to visit her when I am free."

"it is good."

When Li Juan arrived, she brought two plates of melon seeds, one spiced and one fried plain. On Li Long's table, hemp leaves, peanuts, fruit candies, etc. were already on display.

In other words, someone will come to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow, and these can be used to deal with it now.

There was a teapot on the stove. Li Long lifted the lid and smelled a strong scent of jasmine.

Scented tea is relatively rare in the village.

"Brother and sister-in-law have prepared everything." Gu Xiaoxia said while looking at Mingming Haohao, "Let's just eat what's ready."

"Who told me I'm young?" Li Long said with a smile, "It's my duty."

Gu Xiaoxia didn't expect that Li Long would have such a rogue side at this time. She was stunned for a moment, and then she laughed.

While smiling, she said to Mingming and Haohao:

"You two, learn to be like your father in the future. You have brothers and sisters, they will take care of you..."

Li Long didn't expect Gu Xiaoxia to suddenly say this.

Gu Xiaoxia suddenly changed the subject:
"But you also have to understand that in order for your brothers and sisters to take care of you like this, firstly, you have to learn from your father and have the ability to make this big family live well. Secondly, you also have to be as good to your family as your father..."

As Li Long listened, he felt that his wife was praising him in disguise.
So Li Long was very happy.

Gu Xiaoxia looked after the two children while Li Long went to the backyard to greet his elder brother. Li Jianguo had recovered and was feeding grass to the injured yellow sheep.

"Brother, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Jianguo said as he spread grass for the yellow sheep, "It was fine the next day. Hey, I drank a lot at that time, and I felt fine when I came back. I fell asleep after you left, and I slept until dawn the next day. I was hungry when I woke up."

"Of course you did. You didn't eat much in that company." Li Long helped Li Jianguo finish spreading the grass and said, "To be honest, I didn't expect you to drink so much."

"Maybe he's in a good mood." Li Jianguo added, "By the way, your second brother called the team and said he'll be in the county this afternoon. I have to go pick him up then."

"No problem, I'll pick them up then." Li Long said, "They'll live in my east room then. It'll be more fun with more kids."

"Well, my parents will definitely be happy, with a yard full of children. Your sister and her family will come over the day after tomorrow, and there will be more people then."

Li Long walked around the yard and found nothing to do, so he went back to the front yard. It was Gu Xiaoxia's turn to help Liang Yuemei and chat with her.

The sound of firecrackers became more and more frequent, and the two children's attention was attracted and they looked outside from time to time.

The New Year atmosphere is still strong at this time, and each household follows the customs of their hometown, making dumplings or worshiping ancestors, etc. Everyone is also very tolerant, you celebrate according to your customs, and I celebrate according to my customs.

Even if you follow your custom and come to my place before the time for New Year's greetings, I won't have any objection. Since it's the New Year, let's have some fun.

In the afternoon, Li Long drove his jeep to the county. After arriving at the bus station, he locked the car door and waited in the waiting hall.

When my second brother Li Anguo arrives, he should be able to see his jeep and find it easily.

When Li Anguo brought Chen Lirong, Xue Ping and Xue Qin here, Li Long had already been in the waiting room for nearly forty minutes, and he also cooperated with the station staff to do something not too small.

Mainly because the heating in the waiting room was too strong, Li Long found a seat to sit down, and soon he felt drowsy.

He thought that since Li Anguo and his companions had taken a bus from Kuitun to Shicheng, and then from Shicheng to Ma County, they would definitely see his jeep after getting off the bus and would naturally find him, so he planned to take a nap.

As a result, less than ten minutes after I closed my eyes and just when I was feeling sleepy, I felt a hand touching my pocket.

Li Long grabbed the hand and when he opened his eyes, he saw a young man glaring at him viciously. With his other hand, he had already pulled out a knife from his waist and was cursing.

Although Li Long did not understand the ethnic language, he still understood a few swear words such as "攮死格" and "Yesake". He got angry, and before the young man could swing the knife at him, Li Long twisted his wrist, and the young man's body leaned sideways, and Li Long slapped him in the face!
Li Long hasn't had a fight for two years, and he has always felt that he is a civilized person. But sometimes, there is really no need to convince others with reason!

The slap was so loud that the boy immediately dropped the knife and covered his mouth with his hands and cried.

What Li Long didn't expect was that this guy actually had an accomplice. As soon as Balangzi started crying, two older ethnic guys, about twenty years old, came over, also with fierce looks on their faces.

Li Long carried the boy in front of him like a chicken, and looked warily at the two men who had already started to pull out knives.

However, the sound of Balanzi's knife falling to the ground also attracted the attention of other people. Some passengers saw the knife being used and lay far away with their bags, while others ran to tell the staff.

Li Long originally thought that he was fighting one against three, but he didn't expect that before the two men made a move, the station staff came over and surrounded them.

At this time, everyone's reaction speed was still quite fast, and there were quite a few brave ones. Several passengers took out the things they carried with them and prepared to fight with the two men together. Although the opponents were carrying knives, they were not afraid.

The two men immediately became cowardly and tried to run but were surrounded. They pointed knives at others and threatened them, but Li Long could see that they were strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

He probably thought he had a knife and could steal some money here quietly, and then threaten someone if they found out.

But I didn't expect that the first person I met was this ruthless guy Li Long!
So when Li Anguo entered the waiting hall and found Li Long, he was cooperating with the staff and taking a statement with the police who had rushed over.

Many passengers are still praising him for his achievements.

After hearing the situation, Li Anguo said to Li Long:
"Be careful if you encounter something like this next time. That person is carrying a knife. If he really wants to stab you, what should you do?"

Li Long felt that his second brother had lost his manliness.

Not as decisive as the eldest brother.

But he didn't say it directly at this time, he just smiled and agreed. (End of this chapter)
