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

"This guy's broken his bones, didn't you know to treat it first?!"

Qiu Ling, come over here and loosen it for him, put on the plaster, and bandage it.

Whenever Lu Weiguo appeared, Old Mrs. Chang would speak in a very unfriendly tone.

Lu Weiguo wasn't in a hurry to take out the bear gallbladder. This time, he was determined to find out how he had offended the old lady.

"She will?"

"What, can't I even teach her some survival skills? Otherwise, she'll be bullied to death sooner or later after I die!"

"Yes, yes, yes! You can calculate, right? Just figure out what will happen to her in the future!"

Lu Weiguo kept talking to Mrs. Chang.

He was afraid that if he didn't say a word, the men behind him, who were eyeing him menacingly and ready to deal with his family, would drag him over and give him a good beating.

"I'll be damned if you try to predict my death! Why didn't I just predict your demise, you little bastard!"

Old Mrs. Chang, with a cigarette dangling from her lips, grew angrier the more she looked at Lu Weiguo.

"No! Oh my god! Grandma Chang, what did I do to offend you? This should be the first time we've met, so why are you treating me like this?"

Also, what's with all this talk about mice becoming immortals? My daughter had a fever because she had roseola, and it cleared up on its own.

You've completely fooled me!

Lu Weiguo was constantly being scolded, and he finally couldn't take it anymore.

"So what if I'm just kidding you! You little brat, you think you know a lot?"

First time seeing this? You son of a bitch, do you have any conscience at all?! You deserve to be killed by that black bear!

This is the first time you've met me! This is the first time you've met Qiu Ling!

Holy crap!!

As soon as Mrs. Chang said that, Lu Weiguo immediately realized what was going on.

Qiu Ling, Old Mrs. Chang's helper and her beloved granddaughter, this wasn't the first time they'd met.

They were even students at the same school.

He recalled that one year, the school called on all students to join in the fight against the landlord and to uproot the wheat that the landlord had secretly planted.

When he was only eight or nine years old, he pulled the family's cart and went there.

When they returned fully loaded, hauling a cartload of wheat back to the school.

Because the wheat on the cart was too heavy and he was too young, he couldn't control the cart properly.

As they passed a bridge, he slammed down hard on one side, and Xiao Qiuling, who was helping behind the cart, was thrown directly into the river below the bridge.

By the time Qiu Ling was discovered, they had already been at school for quite some time.

I heard that Qiu Ling's mind started to malfunction from that day on.

He was still young at the time, and no one came looking for him, so he had long forgotten about it.

If it weren't for Mrs. Chang pointing to the wheelbarrow under his bottom, he wouldn't have remembered this incident from his childhood.

"Grandma Chang, no, was Qiu Ling's brain damaged from lack of oxygen after falling into the water?"

A wave of guilt washed over Lu Weiguo.

This is a person's entire life; if you don't know it, then forget it.

Now that I remembered, I instantly felt an even greater burden on my shoulders.

"You little bastard, at least you have some conscience! But everyone has their own fate, so don't feel too guilty."

I have revealed too many heavenly secrets, and I am destined to be a widow, orphan, and lonely person. My children have either died or run away.

If Qiu Ling weren't an idiot, she probably wouldn't have been able to stay by my side. But you don't owe me anything; you owe her.

Give me the bear bile! I'll give you whatever price I owe, but it'll be used as a medicinal ingredient to treat Qiu Ling's illness later.

"You have to get her whatever it is!"

Widowed, orphaned, or alone?

Indeed, in the 1950s and 60s, there were spirit mediums like Mrs. Chang.

Her loved ones had either fled or died; she was lucky to have survived.

That's why we later talked about widows, widowers, and the lonely.

What people from Northeast China can't stand the most is missing out on the excitement.

Upon hearing that Lu Weiguo and Qiu Ling had a past, everyone turned to look at Lu Weiguo.

He put his desire to punish him out of his mind.

"When I was seven or eight years old..."

Lu Weiguo picked up Lu Jiacheng, giving himself a double safety net.

Xu Xu then recounted her childhood experiences.

Lu Dewang also knew about this, and halfway through the conversation, he remembered Qiu Ling.

I was just about to feel sorry for the little girl and go check on her.

As a result, it was discovered that Qiu Ling did not treat Liu Dazhuang as a human being at all.

The severed arm was almost bent into a windmill shape.

He simply waved his hand, telling Lu Weiguo to quickly give the bear bile to Old Mrs. Chang.

"Here you go, Grandma Chang. You're lucky, it's a cauliflower gall. Judging by that little thing, it must have taken a lot of herbal medicine."

The medicinal properties of cauliflower gallbladder are closely related to the diet of black bears.

"It's not that you're lucky, it's that idiot's lucky."

As Mrs. Chang said this, she pulled out a golden object from her bosom and smashed it onto Lu Weiguo's head.

He wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, he wanted the thing to smash him a few more times!

This is a small yellow croaker!

This is real hard currency; this piece must weigh at least two ounces!

This stuff is worthless now, only twenty or thirty yuan per gram.

It can be made into bracelets for your wife to wear. Keep them for three to five years, and their value will immediately increase several times over!

"Grandma Chang, this is not right. You can keep the bear bile; how can I take your things?"

Lu Weiguo replied with a smile.

"Get out of here!" Old Mrs. Chang snapped. "Your eyes are practically popping out of your head! If you don't want it, don't put it in your pocket! Give it back! You're so cunning!"

"hey-hey."

Lu Weiguo smiled foolishly, realizing he had acted a little too soon.

Logically speaking, having witnessed the vicissitudes of later generations, this little bit of gold shouldn't have been treated this way.

However, with such a large piece of material, besides making handprints for my wife, I can also make bracelets for my two children.

Anything that's good for your wife and children.

Lu Weiguo never tried to hide it.

"Weiguo, why are there so many people?" A man with a Guanzhong accent walked into the courtyard.

"Holy crap! That startled me! What the hell is that?! I almost fainted from fright!"

The black bear carcass, which had been covered with a tree branch, was pulled away by the two sable cubs.

At this moment, two sables are eating meat on the corpse.

Everyone was inside the house, so no one paid any attention. However, it was carpenter Wang who saw the bear.

"Brother Wang! You're here. I just went hunting in the mountains..."

"Awesome. A lot of people outside say you're just showing off, but I don't think so. Being able to get your hands on this thing, you're quite capable." Carpenter Wang looked at Black Bear thoughtfully.

"Brother Wang, what about the window frame?"

"Okay, it's done. It's on the cart outside. The frame is pine, the middle is lightning-struck wood, and I've also bought you the glass."

But I didn't pay for any of it; it was all what the leader left over. Don't complain!

Lu Weiguo laughed when he heard that.

What's there to complain about? He doesn't have any obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness.

The more of that good-for-nothing's wool we get, the better!

"Okay, seeing that you have a lot of family members, you're all busy, take the child to the small house first, and I'll install it for you directly."

With Carpenter Wang's arrival, it became inconvenient for Old Mrs. Chang to stay any longer.

She glared at Lu Weiguo and had Lu Baojia push it back to her.

Na Qiuling followed behind Old Mrs. Chang, her eyes constantly glancing at Liu Dazhuang.

Her face was flushed, as if the physical contact they had just had sparked feelings between them.

Lu Weiguo touched the stubble that hadn't grown on his face and kept looking them over.

These two idiots getting together is definitely not a good thing!

If you have time to whisper a little something to Mrs. Chang, she will naturally take care of it.
