In 1992, a small village owner became the richest man in the village by owning a car.

Chapter 219 Fourth Uncle, do you have any medicine?
Yu Dawei used to be like he grew up in his family. Back when his grandmother, who was also his own mother, was still living in his family, the little guy rarely went to his younger brother's house and ate and slept at his family's house.

However, precisely because of this, his second younger brother, Yu Laonian, took the opportunity to help their family quite a bit, which enabled their family of twelve to survive during the great famine years.

Yu Chen is not one to think deeply, but not thinking deeply doesn't mean he's not smart. He can understand things just by looking at them or listening to them.

But the villagers still liked to get along with Yu Chen. In their eyes, Yu Chen was a kind, honest, reliable person who didn't have any bad intentions.

He's especially big-hearted and can tolerate a lot of things. Even if you say something wrong to him or take advantage of him, he never cares. Who wouldn't like someone like that?
But it's really bad for your family, because being lenient with others is being cruel to your own family.

Perhaps a ounce or two of meat could save a child who is about to starve to death.

But Yu Chen never thought about these things; he truly lived a life of carefree contentment and happiness.

In his past life, Yu Dawei had many bad habits, among which his carelessness was something he inherited from his grandfather.

It's a bad thing, but perhaps it's not a bad thing either.

If Yu Dawei didn't have this magnanimous quality, he probably would have given up and self-destructed when his company went bankrupt and he was in debt in his previous life.

But he didn't. Apart from a few gray hairs, he ate and drank as usual every day, and even took time to travel alone. His motto was that he didn't care about being burdened by debts, and he wasn't afraid of being bitten by lice.

In this regard, his eldest son, Yu Muyu, who had already graduated from university in his previous life, greatly admired his father, Yu Dawei.

After all, they were in debt for several million yuan, and with the breakdown of their marriage, the mother had a complete mental breakdown. She kept saying that the father, Yu Dawei, was keeping a mistress on the side, and that the maternal relatives he had brought in were all turning against him and acting like ungrateful children.

Facing the double blow of career and family setbacks, he remained undeterred and continued to do as he pleased in that environment. Only his father, Yu Dawei, could have done that.

Yu Dawei, who has been reborn, still retains that easygoing nature in his bones, but he is no longer lazy. Instead, he has become more thoughtful and his mind has become more active.

For example, right now, Yu Dawei keenly senses that there's still room for improvement in his third uncle's situation, since at least his own uncle is on his side.

"Well, of course it's good to eat dumplings." Yu Dawei held the bottom of the glass with one hand and pinched the side of the glass above the water level with two fingers of the other to avoid burning his hands.

"However, my third uncle and his family left right after arriving at my house in Qiqihar today without even having a meal. I feel really bad about it." As Yu Dawei finished speaking, he would occasionally steal glances at the old lady sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) beside him, a smile in his eyes.

Seeing that the old woman ignored him, he then turned his gaze to the older women.

Now, the second sister has the most say. Her husband is a live-in son-in-law, and the second sister takes care of all the big and small things in the family.

Eighth Sister and Ninth Sister can talk to each other. Eighth Sister is a year older than me, and Ninth Sister is the same age as me, but two months older than me on my birthday.

The two of them are getting married soon, but they haven't held the ceremony yet and are still at home, so they can chat for a bit.

The old lady preferred Eighth Sister and Ninth Sister; these two were naturally gentle and always agreed with whatever she said.

Unlike her fourth, sixth, and seventh sisters who work away from home, these three are all wilder than the last. In modern terms, they are all strong women. They are all in their mid-twenties, especially the fourth sister, who is almost thirty. She still doesn't go on blind dates or get married. In addition, she has a very bad temper, and no one in the family can control her.

Most people in the village knew about the girl's temper, and no one dared to say anything. But behind her back, they would always talk about it as a topic of conversation. Leaning against the quilt on the kang (a heated brick bed), they would talk about which family's eldest daughter in the village was still unmarried and might never get married in her life.

Yu Dawei knew that the love stories of his fourth, sixth, and seventh sisters would all unfold within the next two years. After the New Year, his eighth sister would get married in the first half of the year, his ninth sister in the second half, and then his fourth sister would finally find her ideal partner.

It's quite a far place, in Lanxi County, and the man is from the county seat of Lanxi.

Sixth Sister and Seventh Sister also found their own partners. They went to work in Lanxi County with Eldest Sister. Seventh Sister met a man through work. He was also from Lanxi County. They got together soon after.

Sixth Sister, having once treated and saved people with Fourth Uncle Yu Huai, possessed some medical knowledge. While working as a temporary worker at the hospital, she was spotted by an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor who took her on as an apprentice.

The old traditional Chinese medicine doctor was also a rare female doctor. Later, she helped Sixth Sister obtain a medical examination qualification and helped her become a real doctor.

When Uncle Yu Huai learned of this, he felt very sorry. He had discovered Yu Chen's sixth son's talent in medicine in his early years. He could recite all kinds of herbal formulas and recipes, as well as four hundred ingredients, from memory, and his memory was more solid than those who had memorized them for five, seven, or eight years.

It's a pity that the Yu family's medical skills are only passed down to men, not women. Otherwise, the Fourth Uncle would have insisted on taking the Sixth Sister as his goddaughter and passing on his meager medical skills to her.

When Yu Dawei thought of Fourth Uncle, he remembered the promise he made to Boss Liang. He figured that after having dinner at Fourth Uncle's house, he would go to Fourth Uncle's house next door to ask about medicine.

"Mom, we've had plenty of meat and vegetables this year, all thanks to Uncle San. You see..." The second sister was the first to be unable to stand Yu Dawei's pleading yet slightly threatening gaze. All nine of them had been completely under Yu Dawei's thumb since childhood, always afraid he'd be unhappy and then complain to their grandmother, Old Lady Zou.

Needless to say, whether it's true or not, Yu Dawei's complaints to his grandmother are always successful. His grandmother didn't like the nine girls to begin with, and they had basically all been scolded by the old lady.

The second sister came of age early and was scolded the most. Today, when Yu Dawei showed the same look he had when they were children, she was the first to be unable to bear it and subconsciously helped Dawei.

Seeing that the old lady still ignored them and just silently stared out the window, Yu Dawei shifted his gaze to his eighth and ninth sisters.

Eighth Sister and Ninth Sister were also getting a little uncomfortable under Yu Dawei's gaze, as if they were seeing the scene of their grandmother hitting them with a broom handle back then.

The two dared not pretend to be deaf and dumb, and both took the initiative to speak.

"Mom, I think Second Sister is right. Our family has plenty to eat and wear this year. Third Uncle must have been a great help." Eighth Sister's voice was as gentle as a veil.

"Yes, when we were little, my third uncle often came over to play with us. Even if he didn't have much money, he would bring us delicious candies. Mom, I miss my third uncle a little." Ninth Sister was clearly more worldly-wise and understood some of the key points to change someone's mind.

After finishing her sentence, Ninth Sister secretly rolled her eyes at Yu Dawei, having been forced to complete the task. Whether it succeeded or not was no longer up to her.

The two were about the same age, having attended preschool and primary school together. At that time, Heshan Primary School had two classes per grade, and coincidentally, they remained classmates until Yu Dawei transferred to another school in junior high.

Because they were in the same class, Ninth Sister was often bullied by Yu Dawei. Whenever she had something delicious in her pocket, this bastard would always snatch it away.

However, there is still a bond between the siblings. She is gentle and doesn't like to cause trouble, but there are always a few clueless people who bully her.

Yu Dawei fought for her several times in elementary school. After all, they were family, and he couldn't stand others bullying his family.

"You guys... you've been led by the nose by this little rascal for so many years." The old woman finally spoke, but her words were clearly aimed at Yu Dawei. "How much money did you take from your third uncle to be doing him such a favor?"

"Hey, does a dime of pork count?" Yu Dawei grinned at the old lady.

He knew that the deal was done; the siblings, who hadn't seen each other for many years, could now eat dumplings together.

As for whether there was any estrangement or not, he didn't care. Getting such a volatile and strong-willed woman like his aunt to give in was already quite an achievement.

If the old lady were truly a kind-hearted person, she wouldn't have dared to fight with her mother-in-law, Yu Dawei's grandmother, back then.

She certainly wouldn't desperately have children out of spite, insisting on having a son to prove herself.

Yes, you heard right. The person who actually wanted to have a baby wasn't his uncle, but his aunt.

"Since you all want him to come over for dinner, and today is the Winter Solstice, I won't say anything." Aunt Hou Xiaorong looked at Yu Dawei, "If you can get that four-wheeled car back, then let him stay for a simple meal."

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent once more. Their mother was definitely deliberately making things difficult for Yu Dawei. In the short time they had been chatting, the car had already driven quite a distance.

Should Yu Dawei drive after them? It's not impossible, but this time it would really be tough on that brat.

But for some reason, the thought of their brat suffering made them actually quite happy.

"No problem, just watch, Auntie." Yu Dawei grinned, then put down his cup and quickly ran outside.

The people inside the house watched Yu Dawei run out of the yard, each with their own thoughts.

Yu Chen sat quietly on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), his legs dangling in the air, calmly drinking hot water, his main theme being "it has nothing to do with me."

Just when everyone thought Yu Dawei was going home to drive after the person, the people inside the house were astonished to find that the SUV that had driven past their front door had actually returned.

Yu Dawei seemed to have anticipated this, as he didn't wait at the main gate but instead ran directly to the road opposite the gate.

Ninth Sister was the most surprised. She couldn't believe that Dawei had become so shrewd!
