Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

"Let's go up the mountain!"

After Liu Dazhuang mentioned it, Lu Weiguo remembered the scholar Zhang Benmo.

These past few days, I've been busy building the house during the day and dealing with Zhao Yangyang at night.

With that lewd look, if he were to sleep even slightly, his hand would inevitably wander to places he shouldn't.

Especially yesterday, I was so tired that I couldn't help but fall asleep.

When he was woken up, Zhao Yangyang almost sat on him.

With someone clinging to him like this, how could he dare to sleep!

And so, without a proper rest, the brain can't remember the people in the cave at all.

"Hehe, I'll go back and change my clothes."

With two women in the household, Liu Dazhuang was also taken care of.

They know what kind of work to do and what kind of clothes to wear.

Unlike before, when one piece of clothing could be worn through spring, summer, autumn, and winter, now every time I take a bath, I just jump into the river to wash it all together.

Lu Weiguo greeted Lu Dewang and then walked home on his own.

I was thinking of getting up the mountain as soon as possible. I've been starving for three days. If I keep going hungry, I'll really starve to death.

As a result, just as I arrived home at one o'clock, an unexpected person appeared at my door.

"Brother Weiguo! I've finally met you!"

The person at the door saw Lu Weiguo and immediately threw himself into Lu Weiguo's arms.

She clung tightly to Lu Weiguo, refusing to let go.

Her heart-wrenching cries quickly drew Li Xiulian out of the house.

"Weiguo! What are you doing! Who is this?"

Holding Lu Weiguo's little girl, Li Xiulian could tell you were just a child, only seventeen or eighteen years old, so she didn't misunderstand.

She simply didn't know that Lu Weiguo had such a young younger sister.

"Zhao Jiaying, I've told you before."

The person who arrived was Zhao Jiaying, but it was obvious that this young girl was not as composed as she had been the previous times they had met.

It seems like I've been through a lot during this period.

She looked haggard and not as radiant as before.

"Jiaying? Oh! What happened? Did you bully Jiaying?"

Upon seeing this, Li Xiulian quickly ran over to comfort her.

"No way! She cried as soon as she saw me, and I haven't even asked what happened yet!"

Lu Weiguo splashed water in both hands to show his innocence.

A crying little girl is harder to soothe than an old sow.

Lu Weiguo had no choice but to carry Zhao Jiaying into the house.

Fortunately, during the day, the three Liu sisters went out to learn how to use a sewing machine.

That way, the house won't be so messy.

Upon entering the main house, we found that the windows had just been opened to let in some fresh air.

Once Zhao Jiaying had recovered, Li Xiulian also made a cup of sugar water and brought it over.

"Little girl, have some water first. What happened? Who bullied you?"

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Looking at the delicate-looking Li Xiulian, Zhao Jiaying felt a surge of warmth and familiarity.

He took the water and gulped down two big mouthfuls.

Then, with tears in her eyes, she looked at Lu Weiguo and said, "Brother Weiguo, something happened at my house! Waaah, the house is a mess..."

My dad hasn't come home for several days, and my mom and sister cry every day, I heard...

I heard my brother-in-law had an accident!

"You know?" Lu Weiguo asked cautiously.

When something happens at home, it's the children who suffer the most.

Although Zhao Jiaying is not young anymore, she has not yet entered the workforce.

I want to help, but there's nothing I can do.

"Yes, I heard my brother-in-law committed murder, and the police have come to our house several times."

I couldn't stay home any longer, so I sneaked out.

The moment I heard about murder...

Li Xiulian was immediately startled!

He kept giving Lu Weiguo meaningful glances.

Seeing Lu Weiguo make a reassuring gesture, he finally felt relieved.

After all, murder is a huge deal for ordinary people.

"What did your family say?"

Lu Weiguo asked curiously.

"My mom and my sister believe my brother-in-law didn't kill anyone. He's the kind of person who wouldn't even kill a chicken."

"How could I dare to kill someone? But my dad wouldn't help either..."

Lu Weiguo sighed upon hearing this.

It wasn't that your father didn't help; he was barely able to take care of himself at the time.

"Okay, okay, stop crying. You finally got out, so relax a bit."

"You know, I didn't even see a driver. You were coming over there all by yourself, it was so dangerous."

As soon as she mentioned it, Zhao Jiaying's eyes revealed a smug look.

"I didn't bring a driver, but I know Old Niu from your village. I came back in an oxcart."

That old man was so kind to me; he even gave me a blanket to cover myself with.

Lu Weiguo is building a house and needs to prepare a lot of dishes, especially noodles, for a dinner party.

Lu Dewang asked Niu Erliang to go to the county town to buy ingredients, but unexpectedly, he brought the little girl back with him.

No wonder this little girl was able to find her own home.

"You're really bold, acting like you're at your sister-in-law's house as if it were your own."

Li Xiulian looked at Zhao Jiaying with heartache.

"Yeah, I'm just sad, and I have no one to talk to. I'm too scared to go to school now, because my classmates all say I'm a family member of a murderer..."

Her family experienced a crisis, and her classmates even discriminated against her.

How could a naive young girl withstand such a change?

"Okay, I know, you've been wronged. I'll take you out to play. I'm just about to go for a walk in the mountains."

"You should come with your brother."

Lu Weiguo thought for a moment and then said.

The one who tied the knot must untie it; his murderous brother-in-law is right there in the cave.

Seeing her once would put the little girl at ease.

"Weiguo! What time is it? Why are you still going up the mountain? Besides, is she even capable of doing it..."

"Okay, bro! I'll go! I want to go!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiaying jumped three meters high.

She sought out Lu Weiguo to feel at ease and relaxed.

They didn't intend to ask Lu Weiguo for help in solving the problem.

Even her father, a county leader, couldn't solve the problem.

Lu Weiguo was just an old farmer; even a fool couldn't help him.

"Okay, honey, go find Jiaying some clothes. Dazhuang and I aren't going deep into the mountains, but we need wood to build our house."

Let's go for a stroll around the neighborhood and see which place is suitable.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiulian realized there was no danger, and that she could relax in nature while she was there.

So he agreed.

Zhao Jiaying was wearing Li Xiulian's cotton-padded coat, and Lu Weiguo personally tied leg wraps on her legs.

At first glance, she looks no different from an ordinary village girl.

Soon, Liu Dazhuang arrived.

The two men protected Zhao Jiaying in the middle and left through the back door, heading up the mountain.

"My goodness, is this the mountain? How come the temperature is so different from the county? The wind is so strong and it's so cold."

As soon as she stepped out of the village, Zhao Jiaying felt the temperature drop sharply.

With no shelter, the north wind was exceptionally strong.

"We've only just arrived at this point, and soon we'll be up the mountain. Although the wind has died down, there's still a chilling coldness."

If you can't stand it, let's go back first.

Lu Weiguo looked at the little girl with heartache.

"I'm not cold, I'm going anyway. I finally made it out, and I still need to go home tonight..."

Zhao Jiaying's voice grew lower and lower as she spoke.

But when they saw a group of pheasants foraging for food in the wasteland not far away...

She was instantly drawn to it, like a wild horse let loose.

He took off running towards the pheasant.

"Is she an idiot?"

The first time Liu Dazhuang saw someone chasing a pheasant, he had to tell them not to run away.

"About the same as you." Lu Weiguo chuckled.

"That's an idiot..."
