Then he took a rabbit off the gun barrel and handed it to He Shuying: "Second Aunt, I will take two of the three rabbits. You can eat this one."

He Shuying waved her hands nervously: "That won't do, Chongzi. You worked so hard to get this, how can Second Aunt take it? You should take it back and eat it yourself."

Yang Chong stuffed it into her hand and said, "What are you talking about, Second Auntie? We are no match for each other. I know you didn't catch any rabbits, but the ones I caught are yours, right? Take them down quickly, or I will never come here to hunt rabbits again. Anyway, I want to come back often to hunt rabbits in the future."

He Shuying looked at Yang Laochuan in embarrassment, and Yang Laochuan waved his hand: "Hold it, Chongzi is not an outsider."

He Shuying then happily took the rabbit: "Okay, Chongzi, then Second Aunt will take it. Next time you come back, remember to eat at home, otherwise I won't agree."

Yang Chong readily agreed: "Okay, I will definitely come to my house for dinner next time." But in his heart he was thinking that Yang Laochuan's family was having such a hard time right now, he must find a way to help them next time.

After handing the rabbit to He Shuying, Yang Chong said, "Uncle, Aunt, Juan'er, it's getting late today. I won't take the bus. I have to hurry back to the city. If I'm late, I'll miss the last bus."

When Yang Xiaojuan heard this, she pouted and said, "Brother Xiaochong, I just met you and you're leaving again."

He Shuying quickly held her back and said, "Silly girl, your brother Xiao Chong's family has your sister-in-law waiting for you. What if you get late and can't get home without a car? Wouldn't your sister-in-law worry to death? Besides, your brother Xiao Chong is not going to come back in the future. There will be many opportunities to see him."

Yang Xiaojuan nodded and said, "Brother Xiaochong, you have to come back someday. By the way, next time you come back, remember to bring your sister-in-law back for us to see. Let us see how she is."

Yang Chong smiled and said, "Okay, I remember. Bring your sister-in-law back next time. You two will definitely be able to chat by then."

After saying a few words, Yang Chong said goodbye and hurried to the village entrance. Not long after, the last bus came slowly over.

After getting in the car, Yang Chong looked back and saw that the car had gone a long way away, but Yang Xiaojuan was still standing there waving at him.

It seems that I really need to come back more often in the future.

Chapter 16 Is She Also Considered an Old Person?

The bus swayed for more than an hour and finally returned to the old city at around five o'clock.

Yang Chong did not go back to the courtyard directly, but turned around and went to Pigeon City.

There are a lot of wild rabbits and pheasants in the space, and I have to find a way to exchange them for money.

When he was almost at the Pigeon City, he found an empty corner, took out a few hares and pheasants from the space, put them in the pocket he carried with him, then carried them on his shoulders and went over.

There was a famine in those years, and the food rations given by the government to each person were getting smaller and smaller. Moreover, many families only had one or two people in their families, so every household could not get enough to eat. However, the rations were limited, so there was a pigeon market.

Even in Pigeon City, there is not much stock now. As soon as some food is taken out, it is snatched away in a flash, not to mention meat.

So Yang Chong had no trouble selling the dozen or so wild rabbits and pheasants, and they were sold out in a short time.

Fortunately, he had made preparations and left a pheasant and a wild rabbit at home, otherwise Yu Xiu would not even have the chance to taste the new food after a busy day.

And these game also brought him rich rewards.

A dozen wild rabbits and a few pheasants were sold for more than one hundred and fifty yuan. This was because Yang Chong was kind-hearted and did not want to ask for too high a price. If it were someone who often hangs out in the pigeon market, they could have sold it for at least two hundred yuan.

With more than 150 yuan in his pocket, Yang Chong felt very happy and even hummed a little tune while walking.

When he was almost at the gate of the courtyard, he took out the remaining pheasants and hares from the space and held them in his hands.

When passing by the street entrance, he turned his head to take a look, and then he suddenly felt something in his heart and went in.

When he came out again, the hare in his hand was gone, and Director Li, with a smile on his face, appeared behind him.

Yang Chong gave the hare to Director Li. Although the director of the street office was not a high-ranking official, he had a lot of real power in this era. If he had a good relationship with her, it would only benefit him in the future.

What's more, he and Yu Xiu could not finish this pheasant in one meal. If he went back to the mountain tomorrow, it would be easy for him to catch eight or ten rabbits, let alone one.

It was not yet dark and the people in the front yard were still busy cooking. When they saw Yang Chong coming back with a fat pheasant, they all widened their eyes in surprise.

Yan Bugui hurried over and said, "Hey, Chongzi, such a big pheasant? Where did you get it?"

Yang Chong smiled and said, "Oh, Third Uncle, I went back to my hometown today and took a taxi in the mountains."

The third uncle clicked his tongue twice and said, "You are so lucky. I heard that pheasants in the mountains are hard to hunt now. Even the people in the mountains can't catch them."

As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the pheasant, and he did not move away: "Chongzi, this pheasant is not easy to deal with. Do you want your third aunt to help you deal with it?"

Of course Yang Chong understood his little thoughts. He didn't want him to help him clean the pheasants. This was an opportunity for him to continue to help and eat pheasant meat with him!

Of course he would not be so generous, so he smiled and said, "No need, Third Uncle, I grew up in the mountains, so it's not difficult for me to catch pheasants and rabbits."

As he said this, he carried the pheasant into the central courtyard.

Behind him, Yan Bugui shook his head with regret: "This kid, can you two finish such a big pheasant?"

In the central courtyard, everyone could hear clearly the conversation between Yan Bugui and Yang Chong. At this moment, more than a dozen pairs of eyes were staring at Yang Chong and the pheasant in his hand.

The Jia family members who were having dinner at home all pricked up their ears, dropped their bowls and ran out, and Jia Zhang followed them.

"I want to eat pheasant!" Banggeng ran outside, stood in front of Yang Chong, stared at the pheasant in his hand and said loudly.

Yang Chong stopped and pushed it away with his hand: "Go away, if you want to eat it, go back and ask your father to beat it!"

Bang Geng got anxious and sat down on the ground, opening his mouth and crying, "I want to eat pheasant, grandma, I want to eat pheasant!"

Yi Zhonghai, who was in the distance, watched from afar without saying anything.

At this time, Jia Zhang chased out of the house. As soon as she came out, her eyes were fixed on the pheasant in Yang Chong's hand, and her saliva was almost flowing out.

"Mr. Yang, didn't you hear me? My son Banggeng wants to eat the pheasant in your hand, but don't you know how to respect the elderly and love the young? Why don't you share some of the pheasant with us?" Jia Zhang said angrily.

Everyone in the hospital was almost laughed at by her "bandit logic".

Yang Chong looked at her speechlessly, thinking how could you say such stupid things?

Before he could say anything, Yu Xiu heard the noise and ran out from inside the house. She stood in front of him, glaring at Jia Zhang and saying, "Go and hunt pheasants if you want! My brother spent a whole day hunting pheasants, why should I give them to you? And you want us to respect the old and love the young? You are disrespecting your elders and taking advantage of your age!"

"You..." Jia Zhang was furious: "You damn girl, you are not from our courtyard, is it your turn to speak?"

Yu Xiu refused to give in: "Who said I am not from the courtyard? I am the wife of my brother Chongzi. You can't eat my pheasant. I won't allow it!"

Jia Zhang curled her lips and said, "You are just a beggar picked up from the street, and you want to marry someone else's wife? Pah!"

Before he finished speaking, Yang Chong pulled Yu Xiu in front of him to the side, took a step forward, raised his hand and slapped her.

Snapped!

Before Jia Zhang could come to her senses, she was slapped hard in the face and almost fell to the ground.

She covered her burning face with her hands and looked at Yang Chong in front of her in surprise. She didn't react for a while.

The people in the yard didn't expect that Yang Chong would directly hit someone, and they were all stunned.

After a long while, Jia Zhang came back to her senses and howled like a pig being slaughtered: "Someone is beating someone up! Yi Zhonghai, you are the boss of the courtyard, and you don't care if this brat bullies an old man!"

So, everyone turned their eyes to Yi Zhonghai in the distance.

Yi Zhonghai coughed, then walked over with a large teacup in his hand, and said with a dark face: "Yang Chong, you are going too far! How dare you hit the old man in the courtyard!"

At this time, Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu in the room heard something wrong and quickly ran out of the house.

Seeing Jia Zhang sitting on the ground, Jia Dongxu quickly asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Jia Zhang pointed at Yang Chong and said, "Dongxu, this little bastard named Yang hit me!"

Jia Dongxu's eyes suddenly turned red: "Yang Chong, you dare to hit my mother? I must fight you today!"

As he said this, he rolled up his sleeves and looked like he was ready to fight Yang Chong to the death.

Yang Chong snorted, not taking him seriously at all, and said coldly: "Hit an old woman? Is she also an old woman? She is disrespectful to the elderly and speaks foul language. If she dares to scold my wife, I will hit her!"

Chapter 17: Beating people is also justified

Everyone then remembered that Jia Zhang did seem to have said that Yu Xiu was a beggar picked up from the street. Could it be that Yang Chong beat her because of this?

If that's the case, it seems like getting beaten isn't such a big deal.

Jia Dongxu was so anxious that he stuttered: "You, you, you can curse people but you can't hit people, I'm going to fight you today!" After shouting for a long time, no one pulled him back, so he had no choice but to rush forward.

But before he got close, Yang Chong kicked him to the ground.

Now both mother and daughter were lying on the ground.

Jia Zhang opened her mouth and said, "Old Jia, please open your eyes and see, someone is bullying us orphans and widows, please come down and take him away!"

The spirit summoning skill started again.

Yi Zhonghai's face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Yang Chong beat Jia Dongxu and his mother in front of him. It showed that he did not take him, the uncle in charge, seriously at all.

"Yang Chong, you've gone too far. You've repeatedly beaten others and bullied the old and the young. You're not welcome in this courtyard. Please move out of this courtyard!"

Yang Chong snorted disdainfully: "Yi Zhonghai, don't scare me. This house was bought by my parents. It is my right to live here. You want to kick me out just because of your words? Who do you think you are?"

"You..." Yi Zhonghai was so angry that his nose was about to be crooked. When had anyone in this hospital dared to talk to him like this? This was a blatant challenge to his authority!

But what Yang Chong said was also true, the Yang family's house was different from theirs. Their house was allocated by the factory and the street, and they did not have the ownership, only the right to live in it.

However, the Yang family's house was bought by Yang Chong's father a few years ago, so no one could drive him out of the yard.

"It's wrong for you to beat an old man. I'm going to let the street deal with you!" Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to use the street to intimidate Yang Chong.

But Yang Chong scoffed: "Sure, whatever!"

Yi Zhonghai turned his head and looked around: "Yan Jiecheng, go, go to the street and invite Director Li over."

At this time, Liu Haizhong came up and said, "Old Yi, if this alarms the street, then our hospital will lose the title of Advanced Hospital today."

Yi Zhonghai's expression became even uglier: "So according to you, his beating of the old man was in vain?"

Liu Haizhong put his hands in his sleeves and curled his lips: "In my opinion, it's also the fault of Jia Zhangshi's bad mouth. Why does she scold other people's wives for no reason..."

As the second boss in the courtyard, Liu Haizhong has always been dissatisfied with Yi Zhonghai's pressure on him, so he took the opportunity to remove his stool.

Yi Zhonghai knew it well, so he ignored him and glared at Yan Jiecheng: "Didn't I tell you to go call Director Li? Why haven't you gone yet?"

Yan Jiecheng quickly spread his legs and ran out. Not long after, Director Li of the Street Office followed Yan Jiecheng over.

Director Li was cleaning the rabbit at home when Yan Jiecheng called him over. He was very unhappy. As soon as he entered the yard, he said with a dark face: "What's going on? Lao Yi, what happened in your yard again? It's almost the end of the year. Do you still want the title of advanced hospital?"

Yi Zhonghai quickly said with a smile: "Director Li, I don't want to bother you to come here, but I can't do anything about this kind of thing that happened in the hospital."

Director Li glanced at him and asked, "What serious incident has occurred that even you, Old Yi, can't do anything about?"

Yi Zhonghai turned around and pointed at Yang Chong, then at Jia Dongxu and his mother on the ground and said, "Director Li, look, this Yang Chong has no respect for his elders. He beat up the elderly in the courtyard and refused to obey the management of us uncles. If we don't punish him, all the elderly in this courtyard will be beaten by him tomorrow. How will we manage this courtyard in the future? Even the reputation of our entire street will be ruined by him."

"Yang Chong?" Director Li looked at Yang Chong in surprise. In her impression, Yang Chong was always a very polite child. How could he beat an old man?

"Director Li, it's not what they said." Yu Xiu refused to agree. "It's like this. My brother Chongzi went to the mountains for a day and shot a pheasant. Before he even got home, they blocked his way and wanted to take away the pheasant that he had shot with so much effort. Do you think we can agree to this? As soon as we said no, Aunt Jia scolded me as a beggar picked up from the street. My brother Chongzi got so angry that he slapped her in the face, and the mother and daughter sat on the ground and rolled around."

Yu Xiu was eloquent and explained the matter clearly. Director Li was already very dissatisfied with Jia Zhang's laziness, arrogance and domineering behavior. When he heard what happened, his face immediately turned dark.

What's more, Yang Chong gave her a wild rabbit today. How could she not be on Yang Chong's side?

So, to Yi Zhonghai's surprise, Director Li not only did not hold Yang Chong responsible for the beating, but instead scolded Jia Zhang with a dark face: "Jia Zhang, it's you again! You are lazy and always want to blackmail others. Other people's things did not fall from the sky, they also got them after working hard all day. Don't do nothing all day and ask this person to help you and that person to help you. Remember, if you want others to respect you, first you have to act like an old man! If you don't blackmail others and scold their wives, will they beat you? In my opinion, beating you is still a light punishment. If you are still like this in the future, I will notify the police and arrest you for education to see if you can change!"

Director Li's attitude shocked everyone, especially Yi Zhonghai, who was dumbfounded. He quickly pulled Director Li's sleeve and whispered, "Director Li, it was Yang Chong who beat someone up. Why are you..."

Director Li glared at him and said, "And you, Lao Yi, the street office let you guys be the uncles of the courtyard, so that you can uphold justice and maintain order in the courtyard, but you are so good, not only do you not uphold justice, but you also help the tyrants and encourage the bad habits of people like Jia Zhang. Forget it today, but next time if you can't tell right from wrong, you might as well give up the position of uncle to someone else!"

Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath and dared not say anything.

Although Jia Zhang is usually arrogant and domineering in the hospital, she is very obedient when she is with Director Li. You have to know that Director Li represents the government, and he can really send her to jail for a few days if he gets angry.

So he lowered his head and dared not say a word, with a depressed look on his face.

Director Li shouted again: "What? Why don't you get up? Is it comfortable to sit on the ground?"

Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu quickly got up from the ground, lowered their heads and went back to their own house.

Director Li did not stay any longer. He said, "Everyone go," and left in a hurry.

She was still busy going back to pack up the rabbit.

Chapter 18 Are you here to fish too?

After Director Li left, Yi Zhonghai's face looked very ugly. He invited Director Li over originally to let her support him and teach Yang Chong a lesson.

However, he did not expect that things would develop in the direction he expected. Instead of teaching Yang Chong a lesson, Director Li supported him, scolded Jia Zhang, and even scolded him in front of everyone, which made him lose face.

As soon as Director Li left, he frowned, snorted angrily, and went back to his room.

As soon as Yi Zhonghai left, everyone in the yard dispersed, but before leaving, everyone was whispering something.
