Reborn in the 1980s: Nine Stunning Beauties Get Pregnant Before Marriage

This unhealthy trend of setting up gambling schemes began to quietly spread in Shimen Village, a once relatively simple and honest mountain village.

Meanwhile, Chen Yongqiang, who was completely unaware of this, was already fast asleep on his warm earthen bed, with the pregnant Lin Xiulian in his arms.

In the following days, the villagers all got involved in spring plowing and other farm work.

Taking advantage of the lull, Chen Yongqiang started the tractor, preparing to go into the county town again.

He had to go to the agricultural machinery company to equip the tractor with a tilling plow.

Who knew that as soon as Chen Yongqiang started the tractor, Qin Liping climbed onto it.

"Brother Yongqiang, I want to go too!"

Qin Lijuan stood aside, wanting to go but not daring to, and whispered to her younger sister, "Liping, don't go and cause trouble, Dad will scold you if he finds out."

Qin Liping wouldn't listen to her sister: "If I go with Yong-ge, Dad won't scold me! Sister, come on up too, let's go to the county town together!"

"I'm not going. You go by yourself." Qin Lijuan ultimately didn't dare to follow.

Qin Liping turned back and urged Chen Yongqiang in the driver's seat, "My sister isn't going, Yongqiang, let's go!"

Chen Yongqiang didn't really want to bring her along, feeling it would be inconvenient, but seeing her determined attitude, he couldn't force her to leave.

He had no choice but to start the tractor, carrying the little tail, and drive towards the county town.

As the tractor drove along the dirt road, Qin Liping excitedly kept asking, "Brother Yongqiang, is the county town lively? What kind of good food is there?"

Chen Yongqiang looked straight ahead and replied calmly, "I'm going to the county town to take care of business and make money, not to have fun."

"Making money is great! Can you teach me how to make money? That way my dad won't keep saying I just eat and don't work." Qin Liping said innocently.

As they passed through the town, Chen Yongqiang turned the steering wheel. No matter what, Wang Guixiang was pregnant with his child, and he should go and see her.

Seeing the tractor turn a corner, Qin Liping asked in confusion, "Brother Yongqiang, aren't we going to the county town? Where are we going?"

"Let's see what we can take to the county town to sell." Chen Yongqiang's explanation was quite reasonable.

"Now that the truck is empty, if I can pick up some goods along the way, I can earn more in freight fees."

However, it's not market time yet, the streets are deserted, and there aren't many goods to carry.

Chen Yongqiang drove the tractor into the entrance of an alley, turned off the engine, and parked it on the side of the road.

Qin Liping jumped out of the car with him, without asking any questions, just looking around curiously.

Chen Yongqiang, familiar with the place, walked to the door of a house deep in the alley and knocked. This was the house rented by Wang Guixiang.

Wang Guixiang opened the door and saw Chen Yongqiang. A smile appeared on her face, and she was about to speak.

His gaze fell on Qin Liping behind him, but he changed his words before they came out: "This is... Qin Shan's daughter, right?"

When Qin Shan's family first moved to Shimen Village, Wang Guixiang was going through a divorce with Liu Qiaozhu.

He was restless all day long and was not familiar with the Qin family. He only knew that this family had come to the village.

Chen Yongqiang introduced Qin Liping: "This is Sister Guixiang, she used to live in our Shimen Village." He didn't say anything else.

Qin Liping obediently called out, "Sister Guixiang."

Wang Guixiang warmly invited, "Hey, let's come inside first and talk about it."

As Chen Yongqiang walked inside, he casually asked, "Has anyone come to inquire about medicinal herbs recently?"

He remembered his past life; the medicinal herb company was going to open a purchasing station in town this year.

But after being reborn, many things have quietly changed. Will the trajectory of fate still be exactly the same as in the previous life?

Wang Guixiang replied, "I was just about to tell you about this."

"A few days ago, a new medicinal herb purchasing station did appear in town, and the sign was already up."

"However, it seems that it hasn't officially opened for business yet," Wang Guixiang added.

"I understand." Chen Yongqiang felt reassured.

"Should we send over the medicinal herbs we have stored at home?" Wang Guixiang asked anxiously, as those herbs represented a significant amount of money tied up in cash.

"No rush to sell, we still need to keep buying medicinal herbs." Chen Yongqiang knew that the price of medicinal herbs would continue to rise.

"The mountains haven't been opened yet, and the snow on the mountains hasn't melted completely. Where are we going to collect medicinal herbs?" Wang Guixiang didn't understand Chen Yongqiang's intentions.

"What I mean is, once the mountain is cleared and we can go up to collect herbs, we can continue harvesting," Chen Yongqiang explained.

Qin Liping, who was standing next to her, was confused but sensibly kept quiet.

Chen Yongqiang spoke a few more words to Wang Guixiang, then left with Qin Liping.

When Chen Yongqiang walked to the tractor, he noticed a middle-aged man circling around it, reaching out to touch the metal of the trailer.

He initially thought they were just curious villagers and didn't pay much attention, bending down to retrieve the crank handle stuck under the car.

"Is this tractor yours?" the man suddenly asked.

Chen Yongqiang straightened up and nodded: "It's mine."

"I have a shipment that needs to be transported to the county town. Can your truck handle it?" the middle-aged man asked.

"What kind of goods are they?" Chen Yongqiang didn't answer immediately, but asked first.

"It's a batch of mountain products from the supply and marketing cooperative's purchasing station," the middle-aged man replied.

"Sure, I can take this job. Name your price." Chen Yongqiang didn't expect to actually run into a cargo owner who needed his goods transported.

The middle-aged man offered a price: "I'll give you ten yuan. Load it onto the truck here and take it to the county food company warehouse. Someone will unload it there."

Chen Yongqiang quickly calculated in his mind that the price was a bit lower than he had expected. Although it was on the way, it couldn't be too low.

He looked troubled. "Brother, ten yuan... After all the fuel and wear and tear on this trip, I don't have much left. How about fifteen yuan?"

After some haggling, the middle-aged man finally gave in: "Alright, you seem honest, young man, and your bike is new. It'll be fifteen yuan! I'll come back to you for any more jobs."

"Thanks, bro!"

The middle-aged man introduced himself, "My surname is Zhao, and I work at the recycling station. Young man, what's your name? You look unfamiliar; you're not from town, are you?"

"Chen Yongqiang from Shimen Village. I just bought this tractor to run some transport business and supplement my family's income." Chen Yongqiang cocked the crank handle into the engine.

"Being able to afford a tractor these days takes real skill," Zhao Yong said, climbing onto the tractor to point the way.

Not long after, the tractor arrived at the backyard of the supply and marketing cooperative. While the workers were loading the goods, Chen Yongqiang chatted with Zhao Yong for a few minutes.

Upon learning that this batch of mountain products was centrally allocated and in high demand in the city, an additional transportation route was provided for Chen Yongqiang.

"Brother Zhao, are you coming with me in my car?" Chen Yongqiang tightened the last rope.

Zhao Yong, holding a black briefcase, nodded: "Yes, we need to go together to meet with the comrades in the warehouse over there and sign a form."

"Then you'll have to sit in the back," Chen Yongqiang said apologetically, explaining that the tractor cab was too cramped for three people.
