Reborn as a capitalist's young master in the 1970s, he starts his life by being blocked at the

Chen Jianming stood in the courtyard and heard the crying coming from inside the house. He knew what had happened without even thinking.

The village chief and Doctor Wang left for a while, and soon after, they returned to the courtyard with several able-bodied men from the village carrying a thin coffin.

"Young man, thank you for your trouble." Doctor Wang approached and greeted him.

Chen Jianming nodded, not saying much, only wanting to resolve the matter as soon as possible and leave.

He has done all he could.

He can only help with this temporarily, not permanently.

About an hour later, the crying inside the house stopped, and Yingzi, her eyes red from crying, led the two children out of the house.

The two children were still crying, their faces covered in snot and tears.

The local people are simple and honest. When the villagers of Lanshan Village heard the news, they all rushed over. When they saw the two children, they couldn't bear to see them like this.

"Village chief, please, sir, bury my beloved family."

Yingzi had tears in her eyes, and as she walked past Chen Jianming, she glanced at him almost imperceptibly.

Chen Jianming was puzzled, feeling that something seemed a little off, but he didn't think much of it.

Under the village chief's arrangement, he and several other able-bodied men carried the young hunter into a thin coffin and buried him in a random place.

"Yingzi, don't be too sad, you still have two children."

"Yes, no matter what, life goes on."

The villagers offered a few words of comfort, then shook their heads and left.

The matter was settled, and looking at the sky, it was already afternoon.

Having been delayed for so long, Chen Jianming also decided to take his leave, stepping forward and saying, "In that case, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

He then secretly took out a silver coin, intending to hand it over to the other party and leave, but Yingzi grabbed him.

Yingzi said sincerely, "Wait a minute, brother. No matter what, you're the one who carried my husband back. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to see him one last time. You've been busy for so long, you should at least have a meal before you leave."

The village chief chimed in, "Yes, have a meal before you leave. It's Yingzi's way of showing her appreciation, no matter what."

Chen Jianming declined, saying, "I won't eat; I really have to go."

"No, if you leave, the villagers will gossip about me behind my back, saying I'm ungrateful. How can I face them then!"

Yingzi panicked immediately and blocked their way, almost kneeling down.

Chen Jianming had no choice but to nod in agreement, having been told to do so.

"Village Chief, please look after the two children for a while. I'll cook a meal for my benefactor and then bring them back." Yingzi turned to look at the village chief.

"Don't worry, I'll watch the child for you."

The village chief's eyes flickered, he nodded, and then took the two children away.

Only Chen Jianming and Yingzi remained in the courtyard.

For some reason, I felt that there was something off about the way Yingzi and the village chief looked at each other, but I couldn't figure out what it was.

"Am I just overthinking it?" Chen Jianming wondered.

"My benefactor, please come inside."

"Okay, anything will do, no need to make things too complicated."

Chen Jianming went inside and found a chair to sit down.

The room was small and not furnished, but it was very clean and spotless.

"Sit down for a bit, I'm going to take a shower." Yingzi closed the door and turned to go to the side room.

Why do I need to take a shower when I'm cooking?

Chen Jianming felt a little confused.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to think about it. Anyway, there are no Japanese soldiers in this village, just ordinary villagers."

Besides, even if there really were Japanese devils, with his current skills, he wasn't anything to be afraid of. Could he possibly eat him?

Taking advantage of Yingzi's departure, he probed his consciousness into the space.

Having killed so many Japanese devils, he can now observe things with his consciousness without actually entering the space.

In the area where the items were dropped, he found new items—another set!

Here we go again?

He has now collected all the different models.

"Large particles of Tiger Balm? What kind of junk is this? Can't you give me something useful? Next time I come, I'll find something to plug up the crack!"

After clearly seeing the condom model, he immediately dismissed it.

"My benefactor, I'm all washed."

"What's wrong?"

As Chen Jianming regained consciousness, his eyes widened in shock.

Yingzi stood shyly in front of him, wearing only a red bellyband, which was practically the same as not wearing anything at all.

"Did you forget to put on clothes after taking a shower?" Chen Jianming was stunned.

What happened to the cooking you promised?

So all you've got is food?

"My benefactor, don't be afraid. This is the custom of our Lanshan Village. I don't have anything to repay you with right now."

Before Chen Jianming could speak, Yingzi had already moved closer. Her freshly washed hair was still wet and smelled of soap.

"Is there such a rule?"

He'd never heard of it either.

However, Yingzi was indeed quite pretty, with fair skin and a well-proportioned figure, unlike a typical rural woman; her curves were perfectly proportioned. After her bath, she carried a faint, lingering fragrance.

"Don't worry, you can leave after it's all over." Yingzi leaned closer to her.

"Is this... really okay?"

Chen Jianming had no choice. Now that things had come to this point, if he refused, he would seem unromantic.

He always felt that this era seemed even crazier than the world he came from!

"There's nothing wrong with it..."

"..."

Chen Jianming passively accepted everything.

No, didn't her husband just die? Isn't this a bit hasty?

There should at least be a process of understanding...

Gentlemen, please take good care of yourselves when you're out!

"Wow, that's amazing..." Yingzi blushed and couldn't help but exclaim softly.

"Likewise, you're not bad either."

Inside the room, the old wooden bed creaked and groaned, as if it might collapse at any moment.

Just then, with a loud bang, the door was suddenly kicked open.

What's going on?

Chen Jianming was startled.

Even with his strong mental fortitude, he was almost traumatized.

He turned to Yingzi and asked, "You didn't close the door?"

Yingzi blushed and didn't answer, but instead pulled the corner of the blanket over her body.

The next moment, the village chief led a group of men, women, and children from Lanshan Village, carrying shovels and other tools, into the house.

Seeing this, Chen Jianming could easily understand.

He finally understood why he had felt that Yingzi and the village chief's gazes were strange earlier.

So that's what they were waiting for him!

"Village chief, what do you mean? Is this a honey trap?"

The village chief waved his hand: "What's a honey trap? Enough of that. You little brother, I thought you were a good person, but I never expected you to do something like this!"

"Now that you've taken Yingzi's body, you have to take responsibility for her and her child. From now on, her child will be your child."

Dr. Wang was also standing at the back of the crowd. When he saw Chen Jianming, his eyes darted away.

Chen Jianming: "..."

So he's suddenly a father?

His identity changed so quickly that he felt he couldn't keep up.

Who said the people there are simple and honest? Where does this simplicity come from? There are plenty of tricks and schemes in the countryside too!

"Yingzi really got what she wanted!"

"How enviable..."

The young men and women of Lanshan Village had very interesting expressions as they watched the scene unfold.
