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

Lu Weiguo was unaware whether bricks were cheap or not.

Lu Weiguo was truly amazed by what kind of young wives Zhang Dexing and his friends liked.

Zhang Dexing visited the same young wife for three consecutive days.

She has a slim waist, thick legs, and a large bottom, making her a typical pear-shaped figure, but her appearance is delicate and pretty.

What Wang Defa liked was interesting; for three consecutive days, he looked for women of different appearances.

Just like Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs, he didn't let any of them go, regardless of height, weight, or age!

I searched for more than ten people in three days. Even if each one cost three yuan, I still spent nearly fifty yuan!

"Brother, I see your village is pretty strict. How about it, which one do you like? I can ask around for you."

It's just a matter of maintaining a connection with overseas Chinese communities; neither of us should look down on the other!

"Our village doesn't care about these things, especially our village cadre, who likes to lead us in finding young wives."

"If the leaders are like this, how can we expect to be okay? Take her, for example. How much does she cost? Help me get in touch with her."

Lu Weiguo squinted and looked the pear-shaped young wife up and down.

I don't know if Zhang Dexing's abilities are mediocre, or if he's simply lacking in ability.

The young wife still looked dejected, without a trace of the energy that comes with satisfaction.

"Her? You're something else, trying to get close to the boss like that. You're really something! I like friends like you!"

Huang He said this, gesturing the number five.

It means that for five yuan, he would get it done.

Without saying a word, Lu Weiguo took out three two-yuan bills from his pocket and stuffed them into Huang He's hand.

Huang He saw that Lu Weiguo had a lot of change but didn't give it to him; instead, he gave him an extra dollar.

They admire Lu Weiguo's character even more.

Without saying a word, he pulled the three of them and walked into the alley.

I don't know what he said to his wife, but in the end Huang He said that the two brothers could be together.

The young woman agreed.

Pfft!

Lu Weiguo almost fell off the oxcart.

Is this still the era he knows?

In rural areas, the worst thing that can happen is having extramarital affairs, like Liu Dazhuang and Li Huifang.

Or, during the years when educated youth were sent to the countryside, they forced female educated youth to do those things.

But the county seat...

They can all be together in groups of three?

Lu Weiguo was in a daze.

The woman waved shyly at the two of them.

Then they walked into a muddy alley.

"Dazhuang? You don't want to?"

Although his purpose was to find out some information.

He'd already spent all the money, but he wasn't interested in women, unlike Da Zhuang who was right next to him.

"What are you complaining about? Do you think I don't understand?"

"I mean, do you want to sleep with her?"

"Like Sister-in-law Huifang?"

Liu Dazhuang's eyes lit up as he spoke.

"right!"

"Hehe, Brother Weiguo is so nice! He took me to a brothel."

Pooh!

Upon hearing this, Lu Weiguo quickly spat out a curse, "Don't talk nonsense, we're just trying to gather information!"

Follow the woman into a half-collapsed mud house.

Lu Weiguo gained a new understanding of the living conditions in the county.

In fact, in this day and age, many people in county towns live worse lives than those in rural areas.

In rural areas, people have private plots and mountainous areas. If they run out of food, they can dig up grass roots and gnaw on tree bark.

Fresh elm bark is ground into powder, just like flour.

It's like eating too much and not being able to poop.

In the county town, if no one in a family has a job, they rely on the small number of manual laborers provided by the local government.

Even when you're healthy and not sick, it's hard to get a hot meal.

If there is wind and snow, and materials such as coal are needed.

Without selling your body...

Then you can forget about living.

For example, this woman's house was as cold as an icebox.

It's even colder than outside.

At least there was sunlight outside the yard, but inside the house it was so cold it felt like needles were piercing your bones.

"Don't be disgusted, this is just the way my family is."

The woman threw the quilt she was holding onto the kang (a heated brick bed), and then began to unbutton her clothes.

"Comrade, don't unbutton your clothes yet, I have something to ask you."

Lu Weiguo stood at the door, not daring to go inside.

"My husband is dead, I have no one left in my family, and my son is away at school."

Before Lu Weiguo could ask any questions, the woman, seemingly already used to it, continued talking to herself.

"No! That's not what I'm asking."

Lu Weiguo sighed. Single mothers, no matter the era, always have a hard time.

The woman remained silent, as if she felt insulted, and her eyes even welled up with tears.

"Comrade, I don't mean anything by it, I just wanted to ask, that person who came a couple of days ago, he's a friend of mine, and his wife asked me to keep an eye on him."

I just wanted to know if he had done anything to you.

"He has a wife!!"

Upon hearing this, the woman immediately stood up.

"Yes!"

"You filthy man! No man is any good!" The woman clenched her fist, slammed it against her head, and then burst into heart-wrenching sobs.

"Waaaaah, he's a liar! I was such an idiot! How could I have believed him?"

"Please explain in detail!" Upon seeing this, Lu Weiguo almost pulled out a handful of melon seeds, sat down on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), and looked at the woman with a curious expression.

The woman did not disappoint him.

He recounted everything that had happened.

It's basically that Zhang Dexing isn't very capable, but he's good at talking.

Tell the woman that he likes her, wants to marry her, likes her figure, and likes her resilience.

I admire those who raise their children themselves. Let women reform themselves; they'll have him in the future!

After Zhang Dexing said that, the woman felt that her future was secure.

For three consecutive days, not a single penny was collected.

She even cooked for Zhang Dexing for three days straight, just like she would take care of her husband.

Even his son has started calling Zhang Dexing "father"!

"brute!"

After hearing this, Lu Weiguo truly despised Zhang Dexing from the bottom of his heart.

Even if you're a bad person, you should still have a conscience.

This poor young wife is doing that kind of thing with someone.

You actually want to get something for free?

He was different; he actually paid for Liu Dazhuang's money!

Step outside the house.

Lu Weiguo left the woman to Liu Dazhuang.

Zhang Dexing had no one to feed, so Liu Dazhuang helped out.

He then took the treasure from the bear and went to the county government compound.

This time, Lu Weiguo was even more unlucky; he not only failed to meet the top leader, but he also failed to meet Zhao Jiaying.

It seems like some major case has occurred in the county town.

Apart from relatives of leaders, no one is allowed to enter the county party committee compound.

Lu Weiguo gave the captain of the security team a bear kneecap, a bear nose, and some specially dried bear meat.

He then slipped a pack of cigarettes to the security captain before reluctantly leaving.

He originally came here hoping to use Zhao Jiaying's connections to find out about Zhang Dexing's background.

Wu Jian was merely a tool in Zhang Dexing's hands.

If Wu Jian is killed, then the mastermind behind him will also be doomed.

Even though I haven't met the person, I still have to send the gifts.

Lu Weiguo only said that he was Zhao Jiaying's friend, and that he would know if Zhao Jiaying was told about the bear teeth.

If you gave all the stuff from these bears to the top leader, he'd probably just put it straight into the warehouse.

If you were to give these to Zhao Jiaying, they would all be treasures!
