Chapter 1304 Interview with the Victim
The bathhouse was steaming hot.
Zhao Youcai was soaking in the pool alone, squinting his eyes slightly, enjoying himself very much.
But Zhao Baotou had something else in mind.
Now, his son Zhao Jun has caught two Siberian tigers.
As for myself, I hunted and killed two old cows.
The bull-slaying cannon's hat was tightening tighter and tighter on Zhao Youcai's head, just like the tight hoop spell chanted by Tang Sanzang.
"Wow..."
The water in the pool was surging, and Zhao Youcai suddenly stood up, his eyes full of determination.
"I want to go to Lingnan, I want to go to Hansongbaozi!"
After being neatly dressed, Zhao Youcai went home carrying a triangular bag containing his dirty clothes.
When he was still some distance away from home, Zhao Youcai stopped, looked at the thick black smoke rising in his direction, and then ran home.
"Spendthrift woman! Did you light the firewood pile with the pine torches?" Zhao Youcai ran around the corner and saw Jie Sunshi holding a large iron poker and fiddling with the bear paw in the fire not far away.
Zhao Youcai breathed a sigh of relief, walked over and asked, "Sister Sun, what are you doing?"
"Brother-in-law is back!" Xie Sun was the only one who called Zhao Youcai that. She grinned at Zhao Youcai and said, "Brother-in-law, please go back to the house quickly. They are waiting for you to cook!"
Zhao Youcai twitched the corner of his mouth and walked into the yard carrying his triangular bag.
After entering the yard, Zhao Youcai first ran towards Erhei who was howling at him.
Zhao Youcai had just touched the two black cards when his door was pushed open. Zhao Chun stood inside the door and shouted, "Dad!"
"Hey! My eldest daughter!" Zhao Youcai ran to the door with the bag.
Suddenly, Wang Meilan appeared from the door, holding a kitchen knife, and shouted at Zhao Youcai, "Stop!"
"What are you doing?" Zhao Youcai was shocked, and then he heard Wang Meilan ask, "Did you wash it clean?"
"Wash it clean." Zhao Youcai's voice became much softer.
Wang Meilan fought back and chopped the knife on the chopping board on the stove, on which was the goose that she had chopped in half.
Xie Sun had killed the goose early in the morning. After killing the goose, she gutted it and plucked its feathers before bringing it to the owner.
Wang Meilan came over, grabbed Zhao Youcai's cotton-padded jacket with one hand and pulled Zhao Youcai's hair with the other.
"What are you doing? I've washed it!" Zhao Youcai was a little impatient, but Wang Meilan said, "The eldest grandson is here. If you want to get rid of the lice on the child, I will throw it out for you."
"Throw it away, throw it away to me, I'm going to Lingnan." Zhao Youcai muttered quietly. Wang Meilan suddenly turned around and asked, "What are you mumbling about?"
"Ah, nothing? Where is my eldest grandson?" Zhao Youcai walked into the inner room, his steps lightened, and walked carefully to the bed. Looking at the child lying on the kang, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
"The child is asleep, don't wake him up!" Wang Meilan said, pulling Zhao Youcai to the outer room, pointing at the large and small basins on the ground, and said, "You decide what to cook for today."
Zhao Youcai pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "Whether they can shoot you or not is still a big deal. You're making these old people eat, and you'll lose money if you do it again!"
"How many people are coming?" Wang Meilan asked, "Can they beat us? Besides, the aid workers have given me a move, so we have to let them beat us!"
"What a day!" Zhao Youcai muttered a catchphrase, and then went to look at the meat in the big and small basins.
Just then, Xu Chunyan came with Lin Xiaobao, carrying two large sacks.
Xu Chunyan was also very energetic. She was carrying two sacks, one containing two chickens and the other containing two ducks.
Since the Zhao family’s backyard was replanned, sheep are raised in Wang Qiang’s backyard, and chickens and ducks are raised in Lin Xiangshun’s backyard.
But at the current rate of eating, these things may be gone before the Chinese New Year.
"Boil some water!" Wang Meilan pushed Zhao Youcai and pointed at the big pot outside, saying, "Boil some water outside. The chickens and ducks are all dead."
"Oh! What a mess every day!" Zhao Youcai muttered again, turned around and went out to fetch water.
He felt that he needed to perform well today in order to get the opportunity to go to Lingnan.
……
Two Liberation trucks drove into the forest farm, one after the other, and arrived in front of the office building.
Zhao Jun, Wang Qiang and Jie Chen got out of the car and went into the building to join the security team.
When they heard that the newly appointed Deputy Team Leader Zhao had won the team an opportunity to appear on TV, all the security guards were very excited.
Yan Shugang and Liu Jinyong were also happy. They were chatting happily in the room.
Wang Qiang and Jie Chen were smoothly integrated into the security team. Even though Jie Chen was an outsider, he had Zhao Jun's face to save him.
"Here we go, here we go!" Feng Chao appeared at the door and shouted to the people in the house, "The car has arrived at the gate, they are recording it!"
"Really?" Yan Shugang stood up, took the dog-skin hat and put it on his head, and called everyone, "Let's go, let's go downstairs and wait!"
Not only the filming crew came, but also Chu Anmin.
Everyone rushed out of the security team, and as soon as they went out, they saw Zhou Chunming coming down from upstairs.
Everyone went outside, and soon the filming crew's car arrived.
Leading the way was Chu Anmin's jeep, and following behind was their TV station's jeep.
Going into the mountains, we still have to use a big-butt jeep!
Seeing the first car stop, Zhou Chunming led his men to greet them. After greeting Chu Anmin, Zhou Chunming shook hands with each of the crew members who got off the rear car to express his welcome.
The filming crew first entered the lobby of the office building, took pictures of old photos of the forest area and forest farms on the walls of the first floor, and listened to Zhou Chunming talk about the glorious history of the Yong'an Forest Area.
After listening to the history, reporter Su Xianglian signaled the videographer to turn off the video recorder, then she turned to Zhao Jun and said, "Master Zhao."
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was stunned.
Nowadays, calling someone "master" is a respectful title, but Zhao Jun has never been called that. In the past, at work, people always respectfully called him "Technician Zhao."
After briefly recalling his career as a ruler inspector, Zhao Jun smiled at Su Xianglian and said, "Reporter Su, what's wrong?"
Zhao Jun spoke very politely today and didn't ask "what's the matter".
"Technician Zhao, shall we go up the mountain now?" Su Xianglian said to Zhao Jun, "Our filming mission today is quite heavy. We need to start filming from the place where you found the Siberian tiger and continue filming until you catch it."
"Reporter Su." Zhou Chunming interrupted Zhao Jun before he could speak, "We have to come back for lunch. I've asked the canteen to prepare lunch."
"Secretary Zhou, do you think this will work?" Zhao Jun interrupted and said, "After we finish shooting the scenes on the mountain, let's go directly to my house. Reporter Su wants to take pictures of my dog. It's a good opportunity. I've asked my mother to prepare dinner."
Zhou Chunming didn't know what Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan were planning, but he thought that the food at his in-laws' house must be better than that at the forest farm and more suitable for entertaining guests.
So Zhou Chunming asked Chu Anmin and Su Xianglian for their opinions.
After both parties agreed, everyone got on the bus.
There were three jeeps in front. Zhao Jun, Yan Shugang and Liu Jinyong were sitting in Zhou Chunming's car, with driver Zhou Chunming driving and leading the way.
The second car was Chu Anmin's car. Song Zhiyuan, who had helped Zhang Yuanmin find someone in the Forestry Hospital, was driving. Secretary Zhao Ziyang sat in the passenger seat, and Chu Anmin and Zhou Chunming sat in the back seat.
As soon as he got in the car, Chu Anmin complained to Zhou Chunming: "Damn it, Fatty Zhao went to Zhao Jun's house for a few days and I don't know how he got better.
The other day when he came to my house, my wife worked hard to cook eight dishes for him, but he said he should just go to Zhao Jun's house and eat tofu. What kind of person is this?"
Zhou Chunming couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. His wife and daughter-in-law went to Zhao Jun's house and were unwilling to go back to their own home.
Especially his wife, Hu Sanmei, who possesses all the good qualities of a Chinese working woman.
But after staying at the Zhao family for a few days, I actually developed a petty-bourgeois mood.
The third jeep belongs to the TV station.
After closing the car door, the videographer said to Su Xianglian, "Xiaohua, you shouldn't have agreed to go to that person's house for dinner."
"Huh?" Su Xianglian was startled and asked, "Uncle Liu, why?"
The videographer's surname is Liu, and his name is Liu Guihai. He and Su Xianglian's family are old neighbors, and he and Su Xianglian's father are even brothers.
After Su Xianglian graduated from high school, she was assigned to a TV station. Liu Guihai helped her out, and after Su Xianglian started working, he always took good care of her.
It is precisely because of this relationship that Liu Guihai can call Su Xianglian by her nickname and point out Su Xianglian's problems frankly.
In response to Su Xianglian's question, Liu Guihai said, "Xiaohua, the forest area is in a difficult situation right now. If we go there, we might end up giving them half a month's worth of food."
"Ah? Is it that serious? Uncle Liu?" Su Xianglian looked incredulous and asked, "Is the forest area still so difficult now?"
"What are you thinking about, Xiao Su?" The driver Hou Jinglin said, "Didn't you see the old man in the mailroom before you came in? Didn't he have several patches on his cotton jacket?"
"Oh, I didn't think about that!" Su Xianglian felt a little regretful after hearing both of them say that. She said, "I just thought that we had to take pictures of Zhao Jun's hunting dogs this time. Then, he also said that his mother had prepared dinner, so I didn't think much about it."
At this point, Su Xianglian patted the front seat and said, "What should we do now, Uncle Liu?"
"Oh, let's go and take a look first." Liu Guihai sighed and said, "Niece, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You need to think more about what we should do next time we go out."
Some senior people in the workplace always have the habit of acting like a teacher to their juniors, but this is not done with any malice.
"Yes, Xiao Su." The driver Hou Jinglin also said: "We can eat in their forest farm canteen. The public canteen is better than private canteen anyway."
"Uncle Hou, Uncle Liu." Su Xianglian was a kind-hearted girl. She asked Hou and Liu, "Then let's tell them that we can go back to the forest farm to eat after we're done. Is that ok?"
"Then we won't hurry." Liu Guihai shook his head and said, "The director and the secretary of the forestry farm have both agreed. Okay, let's go, and we'll see when we're done."
Su Xianglian felt a little uncomfortable after hearing what the two people said, and was afraid that it would be difficult to provide a meal for her fellow villagers.
When they arrived at the northern foot of Kaoshantun Mountain, everyone got off the car and went up the mountain.
On the way up the mountain, Liu Jinyong led his men to go ahead and go to Feng Jingui's house to ask the old man to come to the scene where Yi Er killed the donkey.
Zhao Jun and his team accompanied the filming crew.
The three members of the filming crew had never filmed in the mountains before, so it was quite tiring to get up the mountain.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Jun and others naturally couldn't just stand by and watch, so they helped the crew get things.
Xie Chen took the big bag from Su Xianglian. Su Xianglian smiled at him, and Xie Chen's mouth almost stretched to his ears.
Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu are about to get married, Zhang Yuanmin's children are all grown up, and among the brothers, only Jie Chen is still single. How can Jie Chen not be anxious?
When he first saw the city girl, Xie Chen's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but want to get closer to her.
When everyone arrived at Kaoshantun, Liu Jinyong and a group of security guards had already invited Feng Jingui over.
"Uncle Feng?" Zhao Jun came over and saw that it was an acquaintance.
"Zhao Jun!" Feng Jingui felt very uncomfortable with these forest guards. Seeing Zhao Jun, a good young man, Feng Jingui ran straight to him.
"Uncle Feng." Zhao Jun glanced around and immediately understood what was going on. He hurriedly asked Feng Jingui, "The donkey that was bitten to death by the big claws is yours?"
"Ah!" Feng Jingui nodded heavily and said, "Isn't it mine?"
"That's not right!" Zhao Jun frowned and said, "Didn't you say your family has a horse sleigh?"
"My dear man!" Feng Jingui thought of the dead donkey and the old son-in-law, and couldn't help but wipe his eyes and said, "My second uncle is gone, and I can't take care of the big horse, so I sold the horse and bought a castrated donkey to work for me. Unexpectedly, the big claw bit my donkey to death."
"Oh!" Zhao Jun sighed heavily when he heard this. He felt unfortunate for what happened to Feng Jingui.
"Come here, Uncle Feng." Zhao Jun led Feng Jingui to the filming crew and said to Su Xianglian, "Reporter Su, this is the victim, Uncle Feng."
"Ah, hello, Uncle Feng." Su Xianglian didn't care about Zhao Jun's inappropriate choice of words. She nodded to Feng Jingui and looked the old man up and down.
There is no need to talk about Feng Jingui's outfit. He wore a dog-skin hat with frayed edges on his head and a cotton jacket with shiny sleeves and collar.
This shine is caused by dirt.
Looking at Feng Jingui's lower body, he was not wearing even outer trousers, just a pair of cotton trousers.
The cotton trousers were also shiny, and the cotton was visible at the crotch and elbows.
It looks very difficult at first glance.
Su Xianglian felt a pang in her heart and felt that it was a mistake to agree to go to Zhao Jun's house for dinner.
The shooting begins, with an empty camera approaching from a distant mountain forest.
As Su Xianglian appeared in the camera, she held the microphone and said: "Dear viewers, I am now at the North Mountain of Kaoshantun, Yong'an Forest District, Shanhe Forestry Bureau.
A few days ago, the roar of a Siberian tiger disturbed the tranquility of this small mountain village. We can see..."
As Su Xianglian spoke, the camera moved to the snow next to it. It was walked on by someone, and the tiger paw prints and donkey's fluttering traces were no longer visible.
But there were some spots of bright red in the snow nearby.
Although Su Xianglian did not appear in the camera, she said: "The bloodstains left on the snow were left by a donkey. The Siberian tiger ignored the donkey's owner and brutally killed the donkey.
Fortunately, at this time, the villagers who heard the tiger's roar lit firecrackers and scared away the Siberian tiger.
Now I will interview Mr. Feng, the owner of the murdered donkey, about this matter."
As she spoke, Su Xianglian handed the microphone to Feng Jingui.
As the camera moved, Su Xianglian and Feng Jingui appeared in the camera.
"Uncle Feng, please give us a brief description of what happened that day."
"Oh my, my girl!" Feng Jingui grinned and said, "You almost scared me to death..."
Su Xianglian: “…”
