The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Yang Dalin certainly knew that there were plenty of game in the mountains and grasslands of Northeast China.

I read a lot of hunting novels in my past life.

So he happily agreed: "Okay, Brother Tian, ​​when we go on long-distance trips together, I'll make sure you eat and drink well."

Upon hearing this, Tian Xueyi laughed and said, "Okay, I'll give you a gun to shoot then. We'll hunt some big ones, like bears, wild deer, gazelles, and wolves."

Brother Tian is benefiting from your success.

Yang Dalin said, "Don't worry, Brother Tian, ​​I can also fish. When we go out again, I'll bring a small pot, and I'll bring my fishing rod and slingshot. I guarantee you'll have a hot meal."

Upon hearing this, Tian Xueyi was very satisfied: "Great, this time when we drive long distances, we won't have to worry about eating dry rations every day."

I think it would be better to prepare some oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea for you as well.

Upon hearing this, Yang Dalin quickly said, "Brother Tian, ​​how did you know? I've already started preparing; I've even bought the small pot."

I've also prepared oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar. If I really have to drive a long distance, I'll bring them with me so you can have a hot meal. Maybe I can even make some fish soup or meat."

Upon hearing this, Tian Xueyi said, "It's true. We usually bring our own pots, but at most we just cook noodles or boil some water."

That's good, being prepared for a rainy day. Very good, very good.

"I'll reimburse you for whatever it costs later."

Yang Dalin waved his hand: "Brother Tian, ​​it didn't cost much, you don't need to worry about it."

Seeing that he wouldn't say anything, Tian Xueyi decided to wait until they were driving together to talk about it later.

Yang Dalin told Tian Xueyi today, which was also to lay the groundwork for him.

Don't be surprised when they pull out oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, or tea from their bags while you're cooking for them on a long trip.

The journey back was forty or fifty kilometers, and it was winter, so there were very few pedestrians on the road, but the road itself was still in good condition.

I didn't encounter anyone needing a ride along the way, and there was no danger.

After all, this is a flat plain. If a robber were to jump out, Lao Tian only needs to take out his gun, and the robber would have nowhere to hide and could be shot dead.

So this section of the road is still quite safe.

Along the way, Tian Xueyi supplemented his knowledge of sports cars.

When they were still more than ten miles from the city, Yang Dalin noticed that the car in front of him had been stopped by several people.

They were all women and children hitchhiking into the city.

The car in front also gave them a ride.

When it was Yang Dalin's turn, there was no one left in his car.

Tian Xueyi also told him that for these hitchhiking trips, he could charge a small fee or cigarettes depending on the distance.

You can put it in your waist bag yourself.

It usually depends on the individual's situation; they might charge a few cents or a dollar. Of course, if it's not far, they might not charge at all.

I generally don't take people who live far away unless they are acquaintances or introduced by acquaintances.

Because it's too far away, there's no guarantee something might happen, and it'll be troublesome on the way.

Each situation requires specific analysis.

Yang Dalin said he understood.

After a while, they arrived at Dongzhimen. The car in front dropped off the passengers, and then everyone arrived safely at the freight station.

As soon as he entered the station, Yang Dalin took out a burlap sack, ready to have the canteen staff at the freight station cook his prey.

One of the older men said, "Dalinzi, you have a big appetite and your family isn't well-off. Let's let it go this time. We'll talk about it next time we catch a big game."

The other drivers chimed in, saying, "That's right, we have too many people, five cars and ten people, so we won't let you spend any more money."

Otherwise, if we take it into the cafeteria, everyone else will want a bite, and there won't be enough to go around.

Yang Dalin felt that he couldn't go back on his word, so he said, "It's okay, I already said I'd treat everyone. If it doesn't work out, we can find a restaurant outside and have them cook for us."

"If you say you'll treat everyone, you should treat them. You have to keep your word."

It was the oldest driver who spoke up: "Dalinzi, everyone knows you're young but very generous. But let's just let it go today. We drivers get paid more than other professions, so nobody's after that. Next time, next time you really hit someone, you'll have to treat everyone, okay?"

Yang Dalin also knew that everyone was doing it for his own good.

Don't easily take advantage of yourself.

Tian Xueyi also said, "Alright, everyone is thinking of you. Take it home and treat your family to something nice. We'll talk about it next time."

Seeing that everyone was so understanding, Yang Dalin agreed, "Okay, next time if I can really catch a big one, or catch a lot of them, I'll treat everyone again."

Yang Dalin had no choice but to carry the bag back to the office, report on the day's tasks, hand over the other party's delivery receipt, and then leave work with everyone else.

Yang Dalin had originally planned to send some to Brother Tian and Qi Desheng.

Neither of them wanted it.

There are only two rabbits and two pheasants. The other birds don't have much meat. How can we collect them?

Yang Dalin had no choice but to tie the sack to the rear rack of his bicycle himself and ride home.

On the way, Yang Dalin thought to himself that he still needed to go to the hospital to inform Ma San that he could be discharged.

So Yang Dalin took a detour and arrived at the hospital, only to find that there were still police officers conducting checks at the hospital entrance.

Everyone entering and exiting must be checked very carefully.

When Yang Dalin arrived, he saw some familiar faces. He parked his car, asked the old man who watched the cars to help him watch the sacks, took out his work ID, and was checked as usual before entering the hospital.

When I arrived at Ma San's ward, several fellow patients were quietly huddled together discussing hospital matters.

When Ma San saw that his sworn brother had arrived, he quickly slipped on his shoes and pulled Yang Dalin out of the ward.

Yang Dalin knew from his actions that nothing was wrong.

Ma San asked him, "Brother, do you know what happened at the hospital? Several groups of people have come to investigate today."

Yang Dalin shook his head and said, "I don't know, why are you worrying so much?"

Are you alright now?

"You're all better now, let's go through the discharge procedures. I had some rabbit meat today, so I'll treat you to something nice when we get back."

As soon as Ma San heard there was meat to eat, his mouth watered.

However, knowing how precious food is these days, he still refused, saying, "Brother, it's not easy to eat anything good these days. You should take it back and eat it with your aunt and the others."

I'm fine now, I can eat by myself when I get back.

What Yang Dalin admired was that this child was very sensible despite his young age.

Although he is young and impulsive, he is very considerate of others.

There's also the discovery of Lin Shangnan, and he deserves credit for it, but Yang Dalin can't say anything about it right now.

There will definitely be more rewards from Dou Xiaolong later, so no matter how much the reward is, Ma San will get a share. He has even recognized himself as the elder brother, so it is only right that he treats Ma Qiang and Ma San to something nice beforehand.

Yang Dalin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Alright, you're younger than me, why worry so much?"

You don't need to worry about that.

Two big, fat rabbits, and some pheasants and wild birds too, that's enough to eat. Let's go get the paperwork done.

"All done, time to go home."

Yang Dalin helped him quickly complete the discharge procedures.

At this point, no doctors are off duty; you can only wait until tomorrow to complete the procedures.

Besides, many people are staying in hospitals these days, mainly just to get some nutrition.

Because of the special circumstances of that era, you could only buy certain special supplies if you had a medical certificate from a hospital.

For example, you could buy some brown sugar, some soy products, some milk powder, and other nutritional supplements.

Therefore, the hospital has many malnourished patients who come from families with decent incomes.
