Chapter 193 This anger must be vented.
After Li Xiangyang finished speaking, he was about to leave when Cheng Shichang grabbed his arm: "Xiangyang, don't be impulsive. This is Yangjia Village after all..."
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I'm going home." Li Xiangyang smiled faintly. "If he can steal once, he can steal again. I'll prepare a big gift for him."
Before Cheng Shichang could say anything more, Li Xiangyang had already turned and left.
In the darkness, Li Xiangyang hurried back.
Halfway there, they saw Wang Ergou still waiting in the same spot.
"Brother Xiangyang!" Wang Ergou greeted him as soon as he saw him. "Did you find out?"
Li Xiangyang briefly recounted what Cheng Shichang had said.
"Yang Fusheng? That son of a bitch!" Wang Ergou clenched his fists, his face flushed red. "Let's go, we're going to settle the score with him!"
As he spoke, he was about to rush towards Yangjia Village.
Li Xiangyang grabbed him: "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? Grab your weapons and beat him up!" Wang Ergou glared, "We worked so hard to hunt this game, and he just steals it like that?"
"Calm down," Li Xiangyang said, pressing down on Wang Ergou's shoulder. "Think about it, if he dared to steal this time, he'll definitely want to steal a second and a third time, right?"
Wang Ergou was taken aback for a moment: "So what?"
“Then next time we go hunting,” Li Xiangyang said with a cold smile, “we’ll stun the prey, but not kill it. What do you think will happen if he tries to steal it again? That won’t be our problem.”
Wang Ergou's eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled, "Brother Xiangyang, that's a brilliant move! Let him go looking for his own death, then no one can blame us."
"Alright, let's go back now." Li Xiangyang patted Wang Ergou on the shoulder. "We still need to take Uncle He to town to sell things tomorrow."
The next morning, the three met at the village entrance and headed straight for the city.
On the way, He Mancang was somewhat worried: "Will these bear bile and bear paws fetch a good price?"
"Don't worry, Uncle He," Li Xiangyang said with a smile. "I know a few people who handle these goods; they're all old acquaintances. They won't treat us unfairly."
Upon arriving at Lao Zhou's leather goods shop, Lao Zhou immediately greeted Li Xiangyang warmly upon seeing him.
After inspecting the goods, Lao Zhou offered a very good price. All three were very satisfied.
Then he went to the state-run restaurant to find Director Zhang. Director Zhang's eyes lit up when he saw the bear paws and bear bile.
"Brother Li, I'll take this batch of goods." Director Zhang grinned from ear to ear. "The price is negotiable."
After the money was divided, He Mancang looked at the bills in his hand, still somewhat incredulous: "This...this is way too much!"
“Uncle He, this is what you deserve,” Li Xiangyang said. “If it weren’t for your timely help, we wouldn’t have been able to handle this bear so efficiently.”
After distributing the money, Li Xiangyang said goodbye to Wang Ergou and He Mancang, went to the supply and marketing cooperative, picked out a bright scarf for his mother, and bought a delicate hair clip for his sister.
After thinking about it, I bought another bag of fruit candies.
He didn't get home until late afternoon.
By this time, my mother had already come home from get off work, and the aroma of dinner filled the yard.
"Brother, you've finally arrived!" Li Xiaohua was adding firewood to the stove when she saw him enter and greeted him cheerfully.
Li Xiangyang smiled and pulled out a gift card and candy from his pocket: "Here, these are for you."
"Wow!" Li Xiaohua's eyes lit up. She took the gift and looked at it with great delight. "Brother, this hair clip is so pretty!"
"I'm glad you like it." Li Xiangyang ruffled his sister's hair. "Where's Mom?"
“I’m inside,” Li Xiaohua said as she put a hair clip on her head.
Li Xiangyang walked into the house and saw his mother tidying up the dishes.
"My son is here." The mother smiled lovingly as she saw him enter.
"Mom, this is for you." Li Xiangyang handed the scarf to his mother.
"You child, you're wasting money again," the mother scolded playfully, but carefully took the scarf and gently stroked it.
"Don't worry about the money," Li Xiangyang said with a smile. "Our son can earn money now, so just tell him what you and Xiaohua want."
"Silly child," the mother said, her eyes reddening, "I only wish for you and Xiaohua to be safe and sound."
"Alright, alright," Li Xiangyang quickly changed the subject when he saw his mother getting emotional. "What delicious food are we having tonight? The aroma is so tempting."
“Stewed cabbage and glass noodles,” Li Xiaohua interjected.
"Let's eat quickly, I'm starving."
The family of three sat around the table. Li Xiangyang served food to his mother and sister, and felt a warm feeling in his heart as he watched them eat happily.
This is the life he wanted most after being reborn.
In my previous life, I was bewitched by Su Yan, which caused my mother and sister so much suffering.
Now that things have been made up for, it was all worth it.
"Oh, right, Mother, before the wedding I was thinking of hunting some more game to earn more money. In a couple of days, when I catch some game, I'll bring you some meat. Don't be stingy in the city; money is meant to be spent. Xiaohua is growing, she needs to eat well..."
As he spoke, Li Xiangyang handed his mother the money he had been allocated for the day.
"Alright, alright, my son's all grown up, starting to lecture his mother. Son, don't push yourself too hard. When hunting, always be careful, after all, you'll be starting a family soon..."
"Don't worry, Mom, I know what I'm doing," Li Xiangyang reassured her with a smile.
"Brother," Li Xiaohua blinked her big eyes, "can you take me with you next time you go hunting?"
"No." Li Xiangyang and his mother said in unison.
"Young lady, what are you going to do?" Li Xiangyang shook his head. "Stay home and do your homework. If you don't have any homework, help your mother with the housework."
Li Xiaohua pouted and nodded reluctantly.
Seeing his sister's disappointed look, Li Xiangyang quickly peeled a piece of candy and put it in her mouth, which cheered her up.
After the meal, Li Xiangyang helped his mother clear the dishes and then went to the yard to chop some firewood.
At night, Li Xiangyang stayed at his home in the city.
His mother and sister were already asleep, but he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Yang Fusheng's theft of the bear was a thorn in his side.
This anger must be vented.
He got up just as dawn was breaking.
His mother was already busy in the kitchen. Seeing him up so early, she was somewhat surprised: "You're up so early?"
"Yes, I have to go back to the village." Li Xiangyang rubbed his eyes. "After all, spring plowing is in a few days, and if I still want to hunt, I have to make the most of these few days."
His mother served him a bowl of hot porridge: "Eat before you go. Oh, and on your way back to the village, stop by the supply and marketing cooperative and pick up some salt and soy sauce."
Li Xiangyang nodded and silently drank his porridge.
After breakfast, he went out carrying a small bag of things his mother had prepared for him.
After buying the things his mother had asked him to do at the supply and marketing cooperative, he hurried to the village.
Along the way, he went over the plan in his mind countless times.
It was already morning when we returned to the village.
He went home first to put his things down, then checked the gun before heading to Wang Ergou's house.
Wang Ergou was chopping firewood in the yard when he saw him coming. He immediately put down his axe and said, "Brother Xiangyang, you're back so soon?"
"Hmm." Li Xiangyang's expression was serious. "Ergou, are you free today?"
Wang Ergou understood immediately from his expression: "Of course. Wait a moment, I'll change my clothes, then we'll head into the mountains."
