Era: My backyard is the garbage dump of the universe

Chapter 21 This person is so fierce (please read it later)
Tinderboxes are much more expensive than matches because of their workmanship, and now Liu Qingsong actually took out one, which was really abnormal for her.

Liu Qingsong knew his second sister would ask this question. After shaking his head, he could only bring out the words he had prepared in advance: "Second sister, can you please stop being suspicious? I'll tell you the truth. This tinderbox and the scrap steel that I sold to Blacksmith Wang were all found by me in the adobe house where my grandparents lived."

Liu Qingsong's grandparents passed away a long time ago.

The mud brick houses in Huaishu Production Team have now become dangerous buildings.

No, to be exact, it has collapsed into ruins.

Liu Lijuan knew this.

So he couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and no longer doubted Liu Qingsong. After all, his grandfather was a very good craftsman when he was alive.

Craftsmen can make things like fire sticks, crossbows, and hunting rifles.

But unfortunately, the craft was not passed down.

When she thought of this, Liu Lijuan felt a little sad.

There are also some grandparents who want to be the best to her.

Liu Qingsong guessed what Liu Lijuan was thinking, and he said, "Second sister, in fact, I not only found a fire starter in grandpa and grandma's adobe house, but I also found a usable bamboo crossbow and some other useful things. Do you want me to show them to you?"

These words seemed to be spoken casually.

But in fact, it was to pave the way for taking things out of the garbage dump of all worlds in the future, and also to avoid arousing suspicion from the second sister Liu Lijuan.

Liu Lijuan didn't think so much. She shook her head and said, "If you can use the bamboo crossbow, keep it! You can go hunting in the back mountain in winter. I won't need it anyway."

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Qingsong nodded. He was waiting for this sentence.

Seeing that there was no one else around, Liu Qingsong carried the large jar of pickled vegetables and walked towards the kitchen: "Second sister, while we have time..."

The words are not finished yet.

He was interrupted by Aunt Li who appeared at the door.

Aunt Li was holding a porcelain bowl of chestnuts with a dozen eggs on top. "Lijuan, my husband Wang asked me to send some chestnuts and eggs to your family. Please don't be disgusted."

"No, it's such a good thing, how could I... how could I despise it?" Liu Lijuan looked at the porcelain bowl full of chestnuts and a dozen eggs and felt somewhat flattered, and her heart was filled with warmness.

After all, in the Huaishu production team in the 1970s and 1980s, 99 percent of the families exchanged eggs for daily necessities such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea.

Aunt Li's family isn't wealthy, so they're no exception.

And now he actually gave the eggs to her family as a return gift.

This was really too heavy for her, so heavy that she didn't dare to accept it.

But Aunt Li didn't care about that. She directly put a porcelain bowl of chestnuts and eggs in Liu Lijuan's hand and said, "If you don't mind, then keep it. Compared with the fish that Qingsong gave to Pangdun yesterday, my little stuff is actually nothing."

"This..." Liu Lijuan hesitated to speak.

"Second sister, just accept it!" Liu Qingsong put down the large jar of pickled vegetables on his shoulder and persuaded her.

It wasn't that he wanted to take advantage of Aunt Li, but he knew very well that Aunt Li was a straightforward person.

If you don't accept the gifts given to you, you will directly offend Aunt Li.

Of course, a more important point is that in the 1970s and 1978s, most people in rural areas were simple and honest and had no evil intentions at all.

If you think too much, it will only cause problems for neighbors.

At worst, when there’s something delicious in the future, I can just give some more to Aunt Li.

But the wild goats in the back mountain cannot be sent away today.

Not at all.

It’s not that Liu Qingsong is stingy.

But once it is revealed, the person who placed so many traps in the back mountain will definitely know about it.

If we secretly cause trouble for him at that time, it would be more trouble than gain.

"Okay!" Seeing that Liu Qingsong had advised her to accept the chestnuts and eggs from Aunt Li, Liu Lijuan had no choice but to accept them with reluctance. Just as she was about to chat with Aunt Li for a while, Pangdun appeared running with his youngest sister and Xiao Nuomi, sweating profusely.

"Why are you running so fast, kid?" Aunt Li couldn't help but scold him when she saw him.

"I...I..." Fatty looked at Aunt Li, then at Liu Qingsong, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"What happened?" Liu Qingsong knew that Pangdun, Yaomei, and Xiao Nuomi must have encountered something, so he asked with concern. "Nothing... nothing." Pangdun smiled and scratched his fat head: "That's it, that's it..."

He hesitated for a long time and couldn't make out a clear idea.

This made the youngest sister anxious, and she couldn't help but say, "Third brother, someone scolded you by the river and told me and Xiao Nuomi to get out."

"Yeah, yeah, this guy is so fierce, even fiercer than my grandparents." Little Nuomi raised his little head and agreed angrily.

"Really?" Liu Qingsong frowned.

Liu Lijuan and Aunt Li looked at each other and their faces darkened.

Aunt Li asked the youngest sister, "What's the name of this person who scolded your brother? Is he from our team?"

"They are from our team, his...his name is Wang Jiahe, and Wang Xiaohe is here too!" the youngest sister replied seriously.

"There are a few other outsiders, but they look familiar to me," Fatty added.

"Then why are they going to the river?" Liu Qingsong was a little confused.

Aunt Li and Liu Lijuan were also very confused.

Wang Jiahe is the elder brother of the beastly captain Wang Xiaohe.

Normally he works hand in hand with the team accountant Zhong Xinbing and hides in the brigade headquarters. Why is he acting so abnormal today and coming to the river with a few outsiders?

"Could it be that..." Liu Lijuan thought of a possibility.

Liu Qingsong also vaguely guessed why the two brothers Wang Xiaohe and Wang Jiahe brought outsiders to the river, but he was not completely sure.

So after coming to his senses, he said to Liu Lijuan: "Second sister, it's still early for lunch, how about...I take my youngest sister and Little Nuomi to the river to go fishing?"

If fishing.

Then we will know what Wang Xiaohe and Wang Jiahe are doing at the riverside.

It can also teach Wang Jiahe, who scolded him, a lesson.

Liu Lijuan guessed what Liu Qingsong was thinking.

So he agreed without any hesitation: "Okay! Take my youngest sister to the river to have a look. I'll call you when lunch is ready."

"Hey!" Liu Qingsong nodded.

Xiao Nuomi and the youngest sister heard this.

He hurriedly walked with his short legs to the backyard to get the fishing tackle box and bamboo fishing rod.

Fatty was anxious when he saw this scene: "Brother Qingsong, I want to go fishing with you too."

"Okay!" Liu Qingsong agreed with a smile.

There was no way out. Aunt Li was so good to his family, he had no choice but to agree.

Of course, the more important point is that Pangdun’s father Wang Yaoqing, also known as Uncle Wang, completely offended Wang Xiaohe yesterday for his second sister and could not participate in the team’s autumn hunting.

In this situation.

If he doesn't take Fatty with him when he goes fishing anymore.

That is not a human being, but a beast.

"Oh..." When Pangdun saw that Liu Qingsong agreed, he cheered and ran to the door of his house to get the fishing rod.

"Run slower!" Aunt Li saw him and quickly followed behind.

Liu Qingsong watched the mother and son disappear from his sight, then saw Yaomei and Xiao Nuomi coming over with a worn fishing tackle box and bamboo fishing rods. He said something to Liu Lijuan and went to meet them.

After waiting at the gate for a while.

He joined up with Pangdun and headed towards Diaozi River.
