It wasn't dark yet when I arrived home.
After entering the courtyard, I stretched my neck and let out a shout toward the house!
Wang An often went into the mountains, so there was no shortage of meat at home; his two little sisters were no longer interested in the game he brought back!
However, they still missed their big brother, Wang An, very much!
Because their big brother spoiled them the most, often giving them a few cents so they could buy sunflower seeds or other snacks at the village store!
Unlike their mother, who would swing a broom handle at the slightest provocation!
They both lunged into Wang An’s arms, a sweet "Big Brother" and "Big Bro" ringing out almost simultaneously.
Wang An hugged his two sisters and kissed each of them once! Then he made them kiss him on his left and right cheeks!
He patted their heads and told them to go inside and play!
After a period of eating meat, his sisters' hair was clearly no longer so dry and yellow, and they had put on some weight!
Then, I unloaded the sled, tied up the horse, fed the animals, and spent a moment getting close to the three big dogs and five puppies before turning to head inside!
I felt that in a few more days, I could take these three big dogs into the mountains!
By then, I could lead the dogs, carry my gun, and bring my brother-in-law along to roam the mountains and forests together!
In the courtyard, Wang Dazhu and his wife, along with Mu Xueqing and Wang Yi, were moving the mountain game into the house.
Wang An, however, was already lying on the west room’s kang, recalling the various methods of setting snares and traps he had learned today.
This hunting style was something Wang An had never heard of: setting snares in the morning, hunting during the day, and checking the snares on the way home in the afternoon.
It didn't interfere with either task; it saved time and yielded a great harvest! Both large and small game ended up at home!
Thinking about this and that, I don't know when I fell asleep.
I didn't wake up until someone poked me, feeling groggy.
Since I was lying along the edge of the kang, the first thing I saw was Mu Xueqing's face.
In my daze, I pulled her over and kissed her. Perhaps it didn't feel satisfying enough!
My hand reached inside her clothes.
Because Mu Xueqing was leaning over, a certain area appeared exceptionally proud!
Suddenly, I felt the flesh on my side being pinched, followed by a piercing pain!
I became instantly alert, and a miserable scream of "Ah!" escaped my lips!
When a person is startled or experiences sudden pain, their hands subconsciously clench.
If they are holding something, they will also subconsciously grip it tighter.
So, there was another "Ah!" sound, though this one sounded quite pleasant!
It was just like that sound made when suddenly entering during *that*!
After their screams, both Wang An and Mu Xueqing were stunned, staring at each other!
At this moment, Liu Guilan, who was preparing to eat on the east room’s kang, suddenly heard the two screams and thought something had happened!
She hurriedly shouted, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Then came a "clatter and bang" of commotion from the east room! It sounded like someone was about to get off the kang and run over!
Hearing the movement in the east room, the two of them immediately forced themselves to stay calm!
Wang An casually lied, shouting, "It's nothing, Mom, I just bumped into something!"
Mu Xueqing immediately backed away to adjust her clothes.
The commotion in the east room ceased.
Wang An leaned over to get up, but his left hand pressed into empty air, and he fell off the edge of the kang onto the floor!
There was a dull "thud," and his left buttock hit the ground directly!
The kang wasn't high, but the sound was quite loud!
This time, it was a real bump! A very solid one!
Although the kang wasn't high, the fall still hurt quite a bit!
Wang An supported himself with his right hand on the edge of the kang and his left hand on the floor, hissing through his teeth as he tried to stand up.
Perhaps he had hit his funny bone when he fell, because as he pushed off the floor, his left arm went limp!
Another "thud!"
Wang An hit the ground again!
But this time, it was a smaller "thud!"
Wang An couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! That hurt like hell!"
Seeing Wang An try to stand and fail, then start cursing, Mu Xueqing thought he had injured himself and hurriedly stepped forward to help him.
By this time, Liu Guilan had run over. Hearing her son's cursing and seeing the posture of her son and daughter-in-law, she knew Wang An had fallen off the kang!
Her panicked mood instantly improved, and she said through gritted teeth, "How old are you, and you're still falling off the kang? Why didn't you just fall to your death!"
As she spoke, she stepped forward to help Wang An up along with her daughter-in-law!
Once up, Wang An pushed his mother and wife away, his voice weak from the pain, "You guys go eat, I'm fine, I'll be better after a while!"
The two didn't suspect anything, took one more look at Wang An, and walked toward the east room.
Wang An, trailing behind, rubbed his butt and muttered to himself, "I really shouldn't lie; this karma comes way too fast!"
After muttering, he limped toward the east room as well.
At dinner, Liu Guilan talked about gossip she heard at the store today, saying that Li Biao had beaten up Sun Dabalu from the same village, and then had his face scratched up by Sun Dabalu's wife.
The reason was that he had asked Sun Dabalu to go into the mountains to hunt together. Sun Dabalu was usually a show-off, and no one wanted to go into the mountains with him, so when someone finally asked, he agreed. But less than three hours later, they were both back.
Sun Dabalu cursed him, saying Li Biao wouldn't listen to him, just messed around, fired his gun randomly, and couldn't hit anything. Sun Dabalu was almost gored by a wild boar, and then Li Biao ran away.
Then Sun Dabalu cursed Li Biao, calling him a piece of trash and not a man, which made Li Biao lose his temper and beat Sun Dabalu up!
After returning home, when Sun Dabalu's wife heard that Li Biao had run away when Sun Dabalu was being gored by the boar, and then beat him up, she found Li Biao and scratched him!
Wang An felt a sense of déjà vu after hearing this; the scene was so similar to when he went into the mountains with Li Biao two days ago!
This Li Biao hadn't been scared off, and despite being useless, he still dared to go into the mountains! He was truly a reckless fool!
However, this Sun Dabalu was quite "resilient" to be cursed; it was a miracle he wasn't cursed to death by Li Biao!
At this moment, Mu Xueqing looked at Wang An and recounted the story of Wang An and Li Biao's trip into the mountains that Wang An had told her yesterday!
After hearing it, the whole family was furious!
Liu Guilan bristled, "What kind of thing is this Li Biao! That heartless wretch! He looks like a human, but one day in the mountains, he's going to get gored to death by a boar!"
But no one expected that Liu Guilan's words would come true.
In the near future, although Li Biao didn't die, his testicles were injured by a boar's tusk, making him a "lone-balled hero"!
That night, Wang An recalled hunting the wild boar with his knife during the day and was filled with excitement.
He also remembered the pleasure from before dinner!
Suddenly, anger rose in his heart, and he turned over and pinned Mu Xueqing down.
A long time later...
Wang An finally vented his frustration, hugged the naked Mu Xueqing, and fell into a deep sleep!
The next day
It was still not yet dawn when Wang An got up, and Liu Guilan had already prepared breakfast.
After a hurried breakfast, I checked my equipment and told Liu Guilan to make sure to feed the dogs some meat, as I would be taking them into the mountains in a few days.
With plenty of meat at home, Liu Guilan finally stopped objecting and agreed!
I hitched up the sled and, in the dim morning light, headed toward my old uncle-in-law Feng Chengmin's house.
