Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Chapter 411 Old Scalper

When we arrived at Mr. He's house, the rooms had already been tidied up. Wu Juan and the others still lived in their original rooms, while He Lai lived alone in his uncle's former room.

"Little Lai, eat some meat, eat some meat quickly. Your uncle just caught some rabbit this morning. It's so delicious."

Old Mrs. He walked into He Lai's room carrying a bowl of rabbit meat.

"Thank you, grandma." He Lai quickly took the bowl from Grandma He's hand and said with a smile.

"Hey... why are you thanking grandma? You silly child, just eat quickly."

Old Mrs. He said with a smile.

"Have my mother and the others eaten?" He Lai picked up the rabbit meat and started eating.

"I ate it. I ate it. Your brother Dahu sent it to me."

"Grandma, you eat too." He Lai fed a piece of rabbit meat to Grandma He's mouth and said.

"Oh, okay, grandma, eat it. Grandma, eat it." Grandma He took it with a smile.

"Grandma, aren't the things you kill turned in to the government now? Why are you eating wild rabbits?"

He Lai asked curiously.

"Well, after the New Year, we won't eat from the same pot anymore. We'll just share our food and live on our own. We only need to hand over half of the prey we catch in the mountains to the commune. From now on, everyone will eat their own food and only have a meal in the cafeteria once in a while."

Old Mrs. He said with a smile, obviously she was already tired of eating from the same big pot.

"Then I have to come to eat grandma's food more often, hehe."

He Lai said with a smile.

"Okay, grandma can make it for you every day."

……

After a short while, Grandma He went to see her two grandchildren, Wen'er and Wu'er. After all, they needed more care.

He Lai stayed in the house, eating while thinking about how to get the beef out smoothly.

After all, it is winter now, and it is difficult to enter the deep mountains. There is vast snow. I used to celebrate the New Year in the countryside, and I would just wander around the edge of the deep mountains.

This year is different. The Chinese New Year is celebrated earlier, on January 27th. In the past, the Chinese New Year was celebrated on February 10th, but now it is half a month earlier. The weather is also much colder than before.

He Lai suddenly thought of a good idea! He could pretend that the golden eagle drove the cattle over! But he needed some training.

After He Lai thought of a solution, he closed the door and entered the space.

"You two, stop eating and come here!" He Lai greeted them immediately when he saw the two golden eagles still eating.

The two golden eagles heard He Lai's call and came over immediately. After a period of feeding, the female eagle had grown a lot, and although it was not as big as the male eagle, it was not too small either.

The key is that they also gave birth to three little eagles. Because there was enough food and there was no competition for food, the little eagles were also growing up healthily.

"Now I give you a task. See the bull? Drive it over to me. Go ahead."

He Lai said.

The two golden eagles tilted their heads in confusion.

He Lai had no choice but to demonstrate. He came to an old ox, grabbed its horns and slowly moved it forward. The old ox was very obedient and did not resist. It just followed its master He Lai.

Soon He Lai and Lao Huangniu arrived in front of the golden eagle.

"Do you two understand? Just bring it to me like this!"

He Lai pointed at the yellow cow and said.

The two golden eagles tilted their heads as if they understood something.

"Okay, let's start now."

The old ox was moved to the farthest place in space by He Lai's thought.

"Go, bring it here." He Lai kicked the two golden eagles over with one foot.

Thus began the golden eagle's training for bull-walking.

……

After hundreds of times of practice, the two golden eagles finally tamed the old ox. They could now drive the old ox to He Lai naturally, which was also due to the old ox's obedience!

He Lai nodded with satisfaction, and his first step of the plan was completed.

After lunch, He Lai went out for a run under the pretext of long-distance running training.

Wu Juan and the others didn't refuse, they just asked him to watch the road.

He Lai ran all the way into the deep mountains. Now the mountains were covered with snow, so He Lai had no choice but to keep going forward. After walking about a kilometer, he looked back and realized that he was far away from the edge. Then he released the old ox and the two golden eagles.

It was the first time that the old ox came out of the space. There were snow and trees all around him. He suddenly felt a little nervous and moved towards He Lai.

"Okay, Old Huang, you'll have to suffer from now on, so I'll give you a good meal for the last time. Later, I'll come and feed you quietly when I have time!"

He Lai touched the old ox and comforted it.

Then he took a lot of fruits, potatoes and sweet potatoes from the space and put them on the ground for the old ox to eat.

"And you two, drive the old ox to my place later, do you understand?"

He Lai gave two pieces of venison to the golden eagle.

The golden eagle picked up the venison excitedly. After all, they usually ate wild boar meat. They would only eat venison, beef and the like when He Lai rewarded them.

Seeing that they had already started eating, He Lai shook his head, turned around and ran back.

After returning home, He Lai summoned Da Hu, Dawa, and Wu Chang and Wu Sheng from the Wu family to go to the hillside to catch wild rabbits.

In this way, He Lai led a group of people to slowly catch wild rabbits on the hillside, and from time to time they looked towards the deep mountains, hoping that the two golden eagles would not let them down!

Fortunately, the two golden eagles were quite powerful. They flew high in the sky and soon found He Lai on the hillside. Then they took the old ox and rushed towards He Lai.

"Xiao Laizi, I think I saw an eagle just now! Do you think it's yours?"

Dahu said.

"What, where?" He Lai asked, pretending to be ignorant.

"It was just over there in the deep mountains. It appeared for a moment and then disappeared into the mountains again."

Da Hu was also a little confused. Why was there an eagle here in the middle of winter?

"Brother Dahu, what eagle?" Da Wa asked curiously.

"A while ago, Xiao Laizi caught an eagle and raised it for a while. Later, he said it ran away with a female eagle."

Big Baby explained.

"What!" Big Wa and the other two were stunned. This is possible!

"Uh... It's okay, it's okay, let's just catch some rabbits. There should be some rabbits in this cave."

He Lai didn't want them to continue talking about the golden eagle, after all, it would be here soon.

When Da Hu and the others heard that there was another hare, they immediately stopped discussing and continued to light a fire to smoke the cave.

But not long after, He Lai saw his old ox and the two golden eagles on its horns. They were slowly approaching He Lai.

"Moo...moo..."

The old ox's cry instantly attracted the attention of Da Hu and the others.

"Little Lai, look, there is a big yellow cow! There are two eagles on its head, and the one that looks like yours! Look!"

Da Hu shouted.

"Hey, it seems to be true. Where did this little guy get this old yellow cow?"

He Lai said with a smile.

"Dawa, go back and call grandpa to catch the cow!" Da Hu said hurriedly.

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Big Wa ran back immediately.

"Brother Dahu, don't go over there. I'll go over there first to take a look. Don't scare the old yellow cow away."

He Lai ordered.

"Okay, okay, Xiao Laizi, be careful, this cow is a little big." Da Hu said a little worriedly.

"I understand." After saying that, He walked towards the old ox and the others.

He Lai walked quickly to the old ox, and the old ox immediately came over and rubbed against He Lai again and again.

The male eagle was not to be outdone. It flew to He Lai's arm and began to please him. Fortunately, He Lai's cotton coat was thick enough, otherwise he would have been hurt by it.

The female eagle still couldn't accept this kind of flattery, so she landed not far away and watched everything quietly.

Fortunately, after a while, Mr. He came over with the three sons of the He family.

"Wow, it really is a wild cattle!" Grandpa He exclaimed.

Looking at the old yellow cow not far away, you can tell that it is ownerless. After all, every cow nowadays has a ring hanging on its nose!

"You guys wait here, I'll go over there alone, don't scare the cows."

Mr. He gave the order and went over with the tools in his hand.
