Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

Before he could even say thank you, Liu Tiezhu had already turned and walked towards the gate: "I'm not saying anything more, I have to get to work."

Chang Kun chased after him to the door: "Uncle Tiezhu, come over for dinner tonight."

Liu Tiezhu didn't even turn his head, waving his hand: "We'll talk about it later, next time."

Watching Liu Tiezhu's figure disappear into the alley, Chang Dashan slowly spoke: "Your Uncle Tiezhu is a man of principle."

Chang Kun carried two strings of grasshoppers into the kitchen and threw them onto the cutting board.

Liu Meifen was adding firewood to the stove when she turned around and glanced back: "Did Tiezhu send this?"

Chang Kun hummed in agreement.

Liu Meifen nodded: "Back in the village, your dad and Uncle Tiezhu were the best of friends. He's a very honest man, much better than those who just talk a good game."

"You silly boy, you did something important for Uncle Tiezhu, and you didn't even say a word when you came back."

"When Tiezhu suddenly came in this morning, I thought he was here to borrow money."

Chang Kun shook his head and chuckled. He hadn't done anything in this matter; he had only mentioned it to the supervisor.

What seemed like an immense debt of gratitude to his parents and Uncle Tiezhu was, in the eyes of others, simply a matter of a word.

Chang Kun rode his bike to work, carrying his old textbook and pencil into the office.

He walked up to Xiao Lü's table and threw the things on it.

Xiao Lü was startled: "Kun, Brother Kun, why did you bring the things back?"

Chang Kun sneered, "I knew you were a coward, but I didn't expect you to be this cowardly. You don't even dare to go see Bao Hua yourself, yet you give me the things?"

Xiao Lü opened her mouth, her face turning red: "I... I didn't mean to... You weren't home, and I felt so embarrassed to go alone."

"What's there to be embarrassed about?"

Xiao Lü's voice trailed off: "I'm afraid I won't know what to say if I go."

Xiao Yu, who was nearby, overheard this and leaned over, saying, "Whether he goes or not, he doesn't know what to say. Either way, he doesn't know what to say."

Xiao Lü glared at him.

Xiao Yu grinned and said, "Why are you glaring at me? Am I not telling the truth?"

Just as Xiao Lü was about to argue, Lao Zeng came in from outside the door at some point, stood at the door for a while, and listened to the whole thing.

He didn't rush to speak. He first walked to Xiao Lü's desk, reached out and flipped through the old textbook, then looked at the pencil, and then turned to look at Xiao Lü.

Putting down his textbook, Old Zeng asked him, "Are you really determined?"

Xiao Lü was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and quickly nodded: "You're really determined."

Old Zeng sighed, "Fine, I guess I'm just unlucky to have a disciple like you!"

He said this with a slight smirk, but he wasn't really angry.

Chang Kun stood to the side without saying a word. He knew Old Zeng well; he was sharp-tongued but cared deeply for his apprentice.

Xiao Lü asked him to help plead with his parents, and he agreed, which means he had already accepted the situation.

Old Zeng glanced at the old textbook on the table again, his mind racing.

Chang Kun said that Bao Hua was a good person and a martyr's family member, and these days the weight of a martyr's family member is not light.

Xiao Lü has neither good looks nor skills, but she has a stable job.

Although Baohua's legs are not very strong, he has a grandfather who is a revolutionary veteran, which would be considered a high threshold for a family in other countries.

When those two conditions are met, they actually make a good match.

Old Zeng didn't say this aloud, but simply pushed the textbook towards Xiao Lü: "Deliver the things yourself, don't always make others run errands for you."

Overjoyed, Xiao Lü approached Old Zeng and exclaimed, "Master, you're so good to me!"

Old Zeng glared at him irritably: "Get out of here."

Lei Guohong strolled in from the doorway, saw the textbook on the table, and then noticed the smile on Xiao Lü's face. He asked, "..."

"Xiao Lü, do you still stand by the deer antler wine you promised me yesterday?"

Xiao Lü's smile froze for half a second, then she quickly nodded: "It counts, it counts, it definitely counts."

Several young people chuckled to themselves, but Xiao Yu was the first to burst out laughing.

Chang Kun pursed his lips. His master, Lei Guohong, kept mentioning deer penis wine. Tiger penis was hard to come by, but there would be plenty of opportunities to go into the mountains with deer penis in the future. If he really came across one, he would leave one for him.

He glanced again at the old textbooks and pencils on the corner of the table, and then at Xiao Lü's face, which looked like a wronged child.

Since Lao Zeng has said he'll step in, this matter should be able to move forward.

But if Xiao Lü hands over his things to someone else to take next time, then he really won't be able to be helped.

When it comes to other matters, others can help, but when it comes to matters of the heart, if you're not strong enough, there's nothing that can be done.

As the group was chatting, Sister Wang knocked on the door and entered the office, holding a work schedule in her hand.

"There's a trip tomorrow, who wants to go?"

Hou Jun was the first to raise his hand: "I'll go, I'll go!"

Xiao Yu quickly followed suit: "I'll go too."

Xiao Lü waved his hand: "I won't go."

He's completely focused on protecting China right now and can't leave at all.

Lei Guohong, standing at the door, was also tempted upon hearing this.

He knew that Hou Jun and Xiao Yu had made a lot of money from trading goods with the truck last time, and he was a little envious.

He turned to look at Old Zeng: "Old Zeng, are you going?"

Old Zeng clicked his tongue: "I was planning to go, but I promised Xiao Lü I'd go to his house tonight, so I can't leave."

He paused for a moment, then said, "Next time, I'll make it up next time."

Chang Kun leaned against the table and thought for a moment, then said, "I'll go next time too."

At least leave someone in the office to keep Xiao Lü company, so he doesn't just stand there doing nothing.

Hou Jun had already taken out his notebook and started making a list. Xiao Yu leaned over to look, and the two whispered to each other.

Xiao Lü watched them pack their things, her face full of envy: "If it weren't for Bao Hua, I could be traveling and having a good time right now."

Chang Kun sneered: "Bao Hua didn't say a word; you're just being delusional."

Xiao Lü, with his thick skin, immediately turned around and leaned over: "Brother Kun, can you take me to Bao Hua's house? I'll deliver the books and pens there."

"Forget it! Wait until your parents actually agree. If you go now, the girl won't even know what's going on. How are you going to bring it up?"

Xiao Lü opened his mouth, then closed it again, and turned to look for Lao Zeng.

"Master, come to my house early tonight, have a few drinks with my dad, and get everything straight."

Old Zeng glared at him: "Alright, alright, I know!"

"Every day is just one problem after another!"

Chang Kun came out of the office and walked towards the freight car.

As I walked to the freight station, I saw Liu Tiezhu standing by the carriage in the distance, a cigarette between his fingers, talking to the workers next to him with a smile on his face.

Compared to yesterday, he seemed much more relaxed today. Chang Kun didn't approach to disturb him, only glanced at him from afar before feeling relieved and turning back.

These days, it's not easy to find a job in the city, and it's even harder to find an easy one.

He was lucky to run into Uncle Tiezhu.

My father often talks about the old brothers in the village. Last time I delivered grain to the village, my father was even more enthusiastic than I was.
