Chapter 1124 Rejecting Moral Kidnapping
The Su family is not a local household in the Yong'an Forest District. Not to mention that Zhao Jun is not familiar with them, even Zhao Youcai only knows Su Dehai who was in trouble, and they are just nodding acquaintances with no courtesy exchanges.
When Zhao Jun heard the Su family asking Zhou Jianjun about him, he knew why they were looking for him without asking.
There are no secrets in the village. Hong Yuntao and Su Dehai returned to Yongfu Village at midnight the day before yesterday. Yesterday morning, the news of their deaths spread to the tofu shops and convenience stores in the four villages.
So when Wang Qiang saw Zhou Jianjun last night, he asked him if he came to find Zhao Jun to fight the big brown bear.
Zhou Jianjun went to Yong'an yesterday with two purposes. He really wanted to ask Zhao Jun for help, but Zhao Jun didn't respond at the dinner table yesterday, so Zhou Jianjun knew that his brother-in-law was not willing to go.
When Zhou Jianjun heard Su Dejiang asking about Zhao Jun, he frowned. He also guessed what the Su family was going to do, but his brother-in-law sided with his brother-in-law, and Zhou Jianjun didn't want to make things difficult for Zhao Jun.
"Old Su, second brother." Zhou Jianjun helped Su Dejiang up and said to him, "Hurry up and help my aunt."
Su Dehai is only 26 years old this year, and his son is only 4 years old. It is impossible for him to take over the job at the forest farm. So when Zhou Jianjun went to the Su family yesterday to provide relief to the widows and orphans, he discussed with the Su family that Su Dejiang should take over his brother's job, and then Su Dejiang would give his nephew 20 yuan of his monthly salary. The forest farm also took care of Su Dehai's widow, and allowed the female comrade to work in the canteen and logistics.
Soon they would be forest farm employees, and Su Dejiang didn't dare to offend Zhou Jianjun. Hearing Zhou Jianjun's words, Su Dejiang hurried to help his mother.
Li Yulian lost her husband at an early age, and has lived with her youngest son Su Dejiang in recent years. At this time, Su Dejiang came to help her, and the old lady was a little reluctant, but she had to get up.
"Leader Zhou!" Li Yulian held Zhou Jianjun's hand, shaking him with tears in her eyes, and said, "You have to take care of my Dehai's affairs."
"Aunt, we will definitely take care of it!" Zhou Jianjun said kindly: "Today we will send Xiao Su away, and tomorrow our security team leader will go up the mountain again."
After hearing what Zhou Jianjun said, Li Yulian didn't quite agree with it.
In 87, whenever there were disturbances caused by wild animals in Yongan Forest District, it was always the Zhao army that solved the problem.
The wild boar king that blocked people in Yongshengtun, the wild boar king that killed two people in Xinlengchang, the black bear that killed Jiang Hua and Tao Dasheng...
Especially when Li Daguai was killed by a tiger in Yongshengtun a while ago, what happened if the entire security team was mobilized? The security team couldn't solve the problem, and the higher authorities sent a special tiger-hunting team, but what happened in the end? Wasn't it the Zhao army that killed the tiger?
So when someone finished writing the gift account at the Hong family not long ago, and went to the Su family to write the gift account, and told the Su family the news of Zhao Jun's arrival, Li Yulian, who learned the news, rushed here with her family.
But due to the disunity among the family members, this matter ended in failure.
Everyone present could see it clearly, and the Hong family knew that the guest did not say anything when they saw the situation.
Seeing the Su family leave, Zhao Jun in the crowd did not step forward. He did not want to get involved in this matter. According to the older generation, it was taboo to touch wild animals that killed people, and it was best not to touch them.
But for Zhao Jun, the main reason was that the relationship was not in place. Zhao Jun didn't want to talk about it.
It’s not that the Zhao army is hard-hearted. There’s thick snow on the mountain and the brown bear is huge.
It is said that a black bear weighing less than 300 kilograms is not qualified to hurt a big pants crotch. The black bear that caused Zhang Yuanmin to be hospitalized weighed more than 300 kilograms, and it was not easy for the hunting dogs to chase it.
Fortunately, the black bear fell into the turtle pit and suffocated to death, otherwise it would have been a fierce battle.
The brown bear that harmed Hong Yuntao and Su Dehai was much bigger than the black bear that day. It could not be trapped in the same turtle pit as the black bear.
In other words, the brown bear's activities are less restricted in the heavy snow.
Therefore, Zhou Chengguo was unable to catch the big brown bear yesterday. If he wanted to catch it, he had to rely on hunting dogs to track it.
But there was heavy snow on the mountain, and when the brown bear suddenly attacked the dog, the dog was unable to escape due to the snow.
The big slap from the brown bear was enough to risk injury or death even though the Zhao family's gang was wearing armor.
Since he is not familiar with the Su family, what does Zhao Jun want? Fame? Profit?
Reputation, Zhao Jun felt that his reputation was good enough. Besides, he didn't help those people for fame. His current reputation was just a natural thing.
As for the benefits, Zhao Jun didn't care about them at all. The gall of a brown bear was worth a lot of money, but if any dog died because of it, Zhao Jun would feel bad.
Therefore, Zhao Jun did not accept the job, and he believed that even if he did not accept it, neither his brother-in-law nor Uncle Zhou would force him to accept it.
As the Su family left, the crowd of onlookers also dispersed, and Zhao Jun, Lin Xiangshun, Li Baoyu, and Han Dachun walked out of the village together.
Hong Yuntao and Su Dehai both died suddenly, so the mourning shed can only be set up outside the village. There will be a small ceremony in front of the mourning shed later, and Zhao Jun and his men can participate or not.
Afterwards, the coffin will be carried to the mountain, where a burn pit will be dug and the body will be buried.
Whether to participate in these things also depends on the relationship. If you have a good relationship, you can go and help. In this kind of thing, usually the villagers contribute more.
Just like in Zhao Jun’s previous life, when Wang Meilan died, almost all the men in the village followed her to the mountain.
Zhao Jun and his friends had been exhausted last night, so they were not ready to go up the mountain with them, so they headed out of the village. The commuter bus was parked outside the village, so they could get on the bus and wait. When everyone was gathered, they would go to the forest farm to work.
"Jun." Han Daming asked Zhao Jun as he walked, "Where is my master? Why did he let you come here by yourself?"
It's not that Zhao Jun couldn't come, just like Li Dayong and Li Baoyu, father and son, came. It's just that Li Baoyu was just accompanying Zhao Jun and the others to have fun, and he could come or not. But Li Dayong couldn't, because he was the head of the Li family.
Similarly, the head of the old Zhao family is Zhao Youcai. Regardless of whether it is nominal or not, there is no reason to let Zhao Jun come alone.
Zhao Jun had explained this all the way in the car, but to those people, Zhao Jun just said that his father had a cold.
As for Han Daming, Zhao Jun didn't have so many concerns. But just as he was about to speak, he was stopped.
Looking at the young woman in mourning and the four-year-old child, Zhao Jun couldn't help but frown.
"Brother Zhao." Someone pointed out Zhao Jun to the young widow. Su Dehai's wife Liu Cuiping knelt down to Zhao Jun. She knelt down and pulled the child to kneel down as well.
Zhao Jun was startled by the sudden incident and he subconsciously dodged back, feeling helpless.
Isn’t this moral kidnapping?
It was understandable, but Zhao Jun walked around the child, put his arm around the child's waist and helped him up, saying, "You are Su's sister-in-law, right? We can't do this."
After Zhao Jun helped the child up, Liu Cuiping kneeling there seemed a little awkward. But Liu Cuiping still did not stand up, and said to Zhao Jun in tears: "Brother, my Dehai..."
"Alas!" Zhao Jun sighed heavily, interrupted Liu Cuiping and said, "Sister-in-law, what I said may not be right. But Brother Su is gone, you have to mourn. If not for yourself, you have to take care of the children."
Liu Cuiping was still kneeling at this time, but there was nothing she could do. She was a widow, and Zhao Jun couldn't help her. If he helped her, she wouldn't be able to get up, and the two of them would be in a stalemate, which would be troublesome.
Liu Cuiping was startled and her tears stopped. At this time, Zhao Jun took out five yuan from his pocket, folded it and stuffed it into the child's pocket.
Then, Zhao Jun said to Liu Cuiping: "This is a token of my appreciation. After that, sister-in-law... I will leave first."
After saying that, Zhao Jun let go of the child, clasped his fists towards Liu Cuiping, and walked around the child and left.
"No..." Liu Cuiping stood up subconsciously. She wanted to call Zhao Jun but it was too late.
When Liu Cuiping led the child over, there were people watching. Zhao Jun stuffed five yuan into the child's pocket without writing a gift note. This was a big favor, and no one could say anything.
Even the gifts received by the old Su family today could not all go to Liu Cuiping and her mother. Those written in Su Dehai's name belonged to her, and those for her mother-in-law Li Yulian belonged to Li Yulian; those for her brother-in-law Su Dejiang belonged to Su Dejiang.
Zhao Jun did not go to the Su family to write the gift account before, which shows that the Zhao and Su families are not polite. Now he stuffed five dollars into the child's pocket. Is this a gift that can be returned or not?
Five dollars is not a lot, but not a little either. But in people's eyes, Zhao Jun did it well enough. Even if he didn't fight the brown bear for Su Dehai, no one could find fault with him.
Zhao Jun felt a little uncomfortable after being treated like this by Liu Cuiping.
After leaving the village, Zhao Jun and his companions got on the commuter bus.
Han Dachun was in the car the whole time. The couple had no children and rarely attended weddings or funerals. Han Dachun would only show up if the event was with his colleagues in the cafeteria or close friends in the village.
Han Dachun did not give any gifts to Hong Yuntao and Su Dehai today, but he had to go to work by car, so he stayed in the car.
"Brother." Han Daming followed Zhao Jun onto their Yongantun commuter bus. After the two brothers greeted each other, Han Daming said to Han Dachun, "After work, I want to go see my master."
"You go." Han Dachun said, "Don't just say you go, I have to go too."
"No need, Uncle Dachun." Zhao Jun said to the Han brothers, "Uncle Daming, my dad is fine."
"That won't work either." Han Daming said with a smile, "That's my master."
After saying this, Han Daming turned to Han Dachun and said, "Brother, I will stay at your place tonight."
"Okay, let's stay. We have room at home too." Han Dachun responded to his brother, then turned to Zhao Jun and said, "Jun, they will be done in a while, why don't you take a nap in the car?"
The "you" Han Dachun mentioned included not only Zhao Jun but also Li Baoyu and Lin Xiangshun, all of whom looked exhausted.
"Yeah!" Han Daming echoed, "No one is coming up yet, there's a place here, you can lie down and take a nap."
"Uncle Da Ming." Zhao Jun said with a wry smile, "I can even fall asleep while sitting now."
……
Yong'an Village Zhaojia.
Zhao Youcai was sleeping soundly, but he was awakened by a burst of crying and shouting.
Zhao Hong and Zhao Na stood on either side of Zhao Youcai, and the two girls lay on top of him and cried bitterly.
The children were sleeping soundly. Even though Zhao Jun and his friends made such a fuss last night, the three children didn't wake up.
When Zhao Jun left this morning, Zhao Hong and Zhao Na woke up. The two little girls started yelling for their dad.
Zhao Youcai slept like a dead pig. Wang Meilan felt both distressed and hated him. It was not just Zhao Youcai who made the whole family unable to sleep well, but he made several families unable to sleep well.
The men came to look for him in the middle of the night, and the women couldn't sleep well because they were worried about their men.
So, Wang Meilan said to her two daughters in an unpleasant tone, "Why are you looking for your dad? Your dad was kicked by a big cannon."
When Wang Meilan said this, even Xiao Lingling started crying.
Wang Meilan had no choice but to coax the three children. But when Zhao Hong and the others wanted to go see Zhao Youcai, they were stopped by Wang Meilan.
Because Zhao Youcai had a fever and was talking nonsense at around five o'clock in the morning, scientifically speaking, it was a cold he caught, but unscientifically speaking, it was probably something he caught in the mountains.
Regardless of whether it is scientific or unscientific, Wang Meilan did not allow her three children to visit Zhao Youcai.
Wang Meilan didn't feel well after not sleeping all night, but she felt sorry for her son and took over the task of feeding the dog.
After washing the pots and bowls, Wang Meilan took the warm dog food out to feed the dog.
After she left, Xiao Lingdang could no longer stop her two aunts. She was also worried about Zhao Youcai, so she followed Zhao Hong and Zhao Na over.
When the three children came in, they saw Zhao Youcai lying straight on the kang with a pale face. Zhao Hong was stunned.
At this time, little Zhao Na went over to call Zhao Youcai, but Zhao Youcai didn't wake up. When Zhao Na turned around and asked Zhao Hong, "Second sister, what happened to our dad?", Zhao Hong burst into tears.
As Zhao Hong said, "Our dad is really kicked by a big cannon," the two little girls threw themselves on Zhao Youcai and started crying. Xiao Lingdang couldn't stop them from crying.
"Cough! Cough!" Zhao Youcai coughed twice because of the pressure from his two daughters. He opened his eyes with difficulty and called out in a hoarse voice: "Second daughter, eldest daughter!"
"Dad, you're not dead?" Zhao Youcai was almost angry to death with Zhao Hong's words, but he quickly realized that his second daughter was still young and ignorant, and she was just worried about him.
"My second daughter, Dad is not dead." Zhao Youcai gave Zhao Hong an ugly smile and said, "Dad still has to save up the dowry for my second daughter to marry him."
This is Zhao Youcai’s recent idea. Although this idea was not recognized by Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun, Zhao Youcai himself felt it was pretty good.
"Dad!" Zhao Hong threw herself on Zhao Youcai and pressed her chubby little face against Zhao Youcai's old face without any disgust.
Just when Zhao Youcai was feeling very relieved, Zhao Hong choked up and said, "I thought you would never come back."
Zhao Youcai: "..."
"Ahem." After a light cough, Zhao Youcai said to Zhao Hong kindly, "My second daughter, what did you say? Dad..."
Before Zhao Youcai finished speaking, Zhao Hong stood up and pointed at the little Lingling who was wiping Zhao Na's tears and said, "Lingling's father went up the mountain and never came back."
Little bell: "..."
Zhang Yuanmin had not returned for the time being, but Wang Meilan came back at this time.
Zhao Hong and Zhao Na were crying in the house. Wang Meilan, who was feeding the dog outside, didn't hear them, but the dog did.
Seeing the blue dragon and blue tiger barking at the west room of her house, she really thought that Zhao Youcai had brought back something unclean. He didn't make a fuss before because he was suppressed by his son. As soon as his son left for work, the dirty thing started to make a fuss.
Wang Meilan was frightened when she remembered that there were three little girls in the room. She hurried to the west room, listened to what Zhao Hong said, and slapped Zhao Hong in the face.
The slap landed on the shoulder, but Wang Meilan didn't use much force, and Zhao Hong, who was wearing a cotton jacket, didn't feel any pain.
But Wang Meilan pointed at Zhao Hong and scolded him, "Don't talk nonsense. Brother Zhang is fine. What nonsense are you talking about?"
At this time, Zhao Youcai wanted to say something to protect his second daughter, but as soon as he opened his mouth he couldn't help coughing.
As soon as he coughed, Wang Meilan remembered that he had a fever. She waved her hand and urged the three little girls to go out.
"Lan!" When the three little girls went out, Zhao Youcai just stopped coughing, so he said to Wang Meilan, "Why are you beating the children?"
"I don't hit the child, I hit you!" Wang Meilan said and slapped Zhao Youcai.
