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

"My husband is slow, he might not have time."

Li Xiulian took a step back, her expression inevitably showing some unease.

Compared to these students who have felt superior since childhood.

Having already given birth to two children and coming from a small border town in Northeast China, she was noticeably less assertive.

These things don't just get better with sudden wealth; they grow from encouragement.

Just like Lu Jiacheng, who has experienced so much since childhood, plus Lu Weiguo's constant encouragement.

Now he acts like a little adult in the county town.

Not afraid at all.

But Li Xiulian...

"What's he busy with? He's just a stinking farmer!"

"That's right, my dad's got the job done, while you guys are still living like primitive people."

"Busy? You might not even have time? You expect us to beg you? Do you even deserve it?"

"Too busy taking care of the kids? Too busy finding food? He must have emptied his family's savings to send you to university. If you ask me, people with these conditions shouldn't come to university; they'll embarrass the university."

"..."

Mocking remarks echoed around Li Xiulian.

The squad leader, Hu Yue, seemed to tacitly approve of this behavior, sitting on Li Xiulian's bed, chewing on the bear jerky.

It smells pretty good.

An older woman who has already given birth to two children still dares to seduce her man.

Even if she doesn't like him, it's not up to this country bumpkin.

Actually, Cai Weidong didn't say anything. He just casually mentioned bear meat during a gathering of a few people.

"Is it true that women who have given birth all have such voluptuous figures, much better than you little brats?"

One sentence!

Just that one sentence.

Hu Yue then completely erupted.

But Li Xiulian was clearly still wearing the same shirt she wore when she did farm work at home, the one that had already been washed and turned white.

No matter how hot the weather was, I never wore short sleeves.

"He's not a farmer! And I haven't disgraced the university."

You can criticize her, but you can't mock Lu Weiguo.

"Even if my husband emptied our savings to send me to university, it's because he loves me. He's the most responsible husband and the most responsible father I've ever met!"

These words were spoken.

The entire dormitory fell silent instantly.

The women exchanged glances.

It's hard to imagine that this is something a country bumpkin would say.

but.

That was just a fleeting moment of admiration.

Then it was drowned out by unrestrained laughter.

"Hahaha, what's the most important thing now? Money! What's the use of taking responsibility if you're still eating steamed buns every day!"

"Exactly, and they call themselves responsible? They're just putting flowers on their own face."

"Can't think of any other words? You're really funny. What's the point of going to university if you can't afford it? Do you even know what a restaurant meal tastes like? Do you know how to eat steak?"

"..."

Even the most patient person couldn't stand such mockery.

Li Xiulian clenched her hands, her pretty face flushed red.

He stared intently at the female classmate who had the loudest voice and uttered the most offensive insults.

Although that female classmate was taller, stronger, and less attractive than her.

But at this moment, she didn't want to hold back any longer.

"What are you saying? We're all classmates, that's enough. I've already asked Xiulian to agree."

Just as Li Xiulian was about to make a move, Zheng Lin, who had just returned from washing up, suddenly grabbed the arm that had already been raised.

"What are you doing? Her life is hard, she's suffering, we should help her. Besides, why should women make things difficult for each other?"

We're all in the same class, give me some face.

Zheng Lin smiled and pulled Li Xiulian aside, though she was speaking to the other classmates.

but.

But most of it was said to Li Xiulian.

"Zheng Lin, you said you'd bring some wild game to the social gathering."

Hu Yue saw Zheng Lin, after all, they were both local students.

He glanced at her, then led the others out of the dormitory.

Zheng Lin, who was trying to remain calm, finally let out a deep sigh.

"Oh dear, they're all the same, just Hu Yue's lackeys. Hu Yue's family owns a fancy restaurant; only important people can afford to eat there."

Those people were all from out of town. Look at them, dressed so smartly, but they were all wearing cheap clothes bought from street vendors—not a single decent item.

Zheng Lin pulled Li Xiulian down and squatted on the ground to help her tidy up the clothes.

"Thanks, I'll do it myself."

Li Xiulian lowered her head and, after enduring for a long time, finally mustered the strength.

The courage she had just mustered allowed her, who was not good with words, to use all her strength.

"I'll do it, I'll do it. I saw you were about to make a move? Don't be ridiculous."

Our school isn't strict about other things, but it has absolutely no tolerance for students who fight. You've finally managed to get into university thanks to your husband's efforts...

If you don't study hard, you'll be letting your husband down. It's only four years, so try to be patient.

After graduating from university, everyone goes back to their own homes and mothers; who will even recognize anyone else then?

Li Xiulian didn't listen to anything else she said.

But those words, "I'm sorry, husband," brought her complete peace of mind.

For more than a year, Lu Weiguo spent every day and night running into the forest.

Although I always look very relaxed when I come back.

But who doesn't know that once you go into that forest, your life or death is no longer in your own hands?

Many people never made it out of the woods.

Moreover, Lu Weiguo now needs to take care of both of his children.

Even with the help of both sets of parents, anyone who takes care of a child knows that the child still relies on their parents the most.

And she...

What if you couldn't resist and got expelled from school?

How heartbroken Lu Weiguo must be.

at this time.

Whether Lu Weiguo was hurt or not is unknown, but he seemed to have suffered a blow.

Regardless of whether she could understand or not, he kept telling Lu Jia Huan about the importance of studying.

Even an old lady, a shamanic old lady, knows about carbon monoxide poisoning.

Instead, he didn't react at all.

The old man is wise and shrewd; that's no exaggeration.

However, Lu Weiguo also had a slight doubt.

What was the situation with the black cat shadow that the child saw?

Perhaps there really was a problem with poor air circulation last night.

But it's definitely not as serious as Mrs. Chang described.

Lu Weiguo held Lu Jiahuan in his arms, looking out at the autumn rain.

Anyway, there's nothing to do these days, and the village's farmers' market is back on track.

Why not take this opportunity to go up the mountain and hunt some wild game?

It is important to know that hunting should not take place in spring or summer.

Strictly speaking, there are only two hunting seasons: autumn hunting and winter hunting.

Moreover, during this season, several animals are almost everywhere on the mountains and fields.

With experience, it's like getting something for free.

Lu Weiguo pondered for a moment, looking at the sun that had already peeked out from behind the clouds on the horizon.

I stretched my muscles a bit.

"Girl, Dad will take you to Grandma's house later. I'm in contact with people every day, and I feel like my brain is going to break down."

"Since the weather's nice and sunny, how about Dad hunts a few rabbits for you to eat?"

"Rabbit is Huanhuan's good friend." Lu Jiahuan couldn't understand the long sentence, but she remembered the rabbit.

"Is that bunny tasty?"

"So delicious~~ Huanhuan loves eating bunny the most~~"
