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

Chen Yongqiang, carrying two steamed buns, ate as he walked, and went straight to Liang Meie's house.

In the dead of night, he raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door.

"Who is it?" came Liang Meie's sleepy voice from inside.

"Me," Chen Yongqiang replied in a deep voice.

Liang Meie, wearing an overcoat, looked somewhat surprised, then lowered her voice and said, "Come in quickly." She stepped aside, assuming that Chen Yongqiang wanted to meet her in secret.

Chen Yongqiang stood still. "I'm here to talk to you about something important. I killed three wild boars. Put on your clothes and go help me deal with them."

"Three heads?" Liang Meie's eyes lit up immediately. The money she earned from the last collaboration had just covered her child's tuition, and now another business opportunity had come in.

Without a word, she agreed, "Okay, wait a minute!" and turned to go back inside to change her clothes.

Just then, the door to the next room opened. Liang Meie's father-in-law stood in the doorway, wearing a jacket.

His face was so dark it could drip water, and his gaze swept over Chen Yongqiang: "Chen Yongqiang, what are you doing at my house in the middle of the night?"

Chen Yongqiang remained calm and met his gaze with composure: "Uncle Li, I hunted three wild boars, and I can't manage it all by myself. I'd like to ask Sister-in-law Mei'e to come and lend a hand."

Old Li stared at Chen Yongqiang for a long time, then glanced at his daughter-in-law, who had already put on her coat and was tying her hair up.

Finally, he managed to squeeze out, "Come back as soon as you're done. Don't take too long."

"Don't worry, Father," Liang Meie quickly replied.

"Yongqiang is an honest man. Once this wild boar is properly processed, I can go to the neighboring village to sell it for money tomorrow."

The old man snorted heavily, said nothing more, and turned to go back into the house.

He silently ate the wild boar meat that Liang Meie brought back last time. The meat was indeed fragrant and juicy, a long-lost delicious taste.

He leaned against the door, listening to his daughter-in-law's footsteps outside and Chen Yongqiang's deep voice.

Even if Liang Meie and Chen Yongqiang really had something going on, he could only turn a blind eye for now.

These days, life is too hard. His son passed away early, he's old and can't earn much money, and his grandson is still young, so everything depends on Liang Meie to take care of things inside and outside the home.

If Liang Meie is truly driven to the brink of despair, given her strong-willed nature, she might very well take her grandson and leave.

At that point, this family will truly fall apart.

Liang Meie had already gotten dressed and said to Chen Yongqiang in a low voice, "Let's go, hurry up and deal with it, we still have to catch the early market before dawn."

Some things don't need to be explicitly stated; everyone understands them implicitly. In this life of relying on the land for sustenance, simply surviving and making a living is more important than anything else.

With Liang Meie's help, Chen Yongqiang dealt with the three wild boars much faster.

After the pork was cut into different parts, as usual, a large plate of fragrant wild boar meat was stir-fried as a reward.

But tonight was a little different. Lin Xiulian, who usually loved this dish, covered her mouth and avoided it from a distance as soon as she smelled the oily smell because she was pregnant.

Chen Yongqiang witnessed this scene and silently kept it in mind.

He planned to trade some fat domestic chickens and ducks with someone when he went to the market to sell wild boar meat tomorrow.

Although wild boar meat is delicious, it is ultimately too hot in nature and not as warming and nourishing as domestic poultry.

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Chen Yongqiang rode his Phoenix brand bicycle, carrying two heavy baskets of wild boar meat, to the town's market.

With this bicycle, the journey became much easier and faster, and the mountain road no longer seemed so long and difficult.

He arrived at Wang Guixiang's vegetable stall and unloaded a basket of meat. Wang Guixiang was arranging the vegetables, and when she saw him, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

"Yongqiang is here!" she called out.

His gaze immediately fell on the basket of red and white wild boar meat. "There's a good amount of meat today!"

As Chen Yongqiang helped her place the meat basket in a prominent position, he casually asked, "Hmm. By the way, Sister Guixiang, have those rascals at the market been bothering you these past few days?"

Wang Guixiang's hands didn't stop moving: "No, it's strange, it's been very quiet these past few days, I haven't seen a trace of them." She was obviously unaware of the inside story.

Chen Yongqiang guessed that those guys were probably still at home recovering from their injuries, and naturally didn't have the strength to come out and do evil.

He didn't say much, only replying casually, "It's good that you didn't come."

As they were talking, Chen Yongqiang had already loaded the remaining basket of meat onto his bicycle and rode it to the kitchen of the state-run restaurant in town.

When the cook, Old Zhou, came out to inspect the goods, he rummaged through the meat in the basket and finally only picked out twenty catties of the best leg meat and two wild boar stomachs.

"This is your third visit this month," Old Zhou said, pulling out his banknotes and counting them.

"The first couple of times were fine, it was something new and everyone wanted to try it. But eating it all the time can get tiring, the wild boar from the mountains has a strong flavor, and it gets cloying after a while."

Chen Yongqiang took the money, understanding the reasoning behind it. Wild game, though delicious, couldn't be sold as a regular dish.

After finishing the remaining wild boar stomach, Chen Yongqiang turned around and found Yao Lijuan, the female director of the state-run restaurant.

As she paid, she glanced at Chen Yongqiang and said, "I didn't expect you to be so capable, managing to get these wild game every now and then."

Chen Yongqiang took the money and put it in his pocket: "Director Yao, you don't know, wild boars are almost a plague on the mountain now. They not only damage the crops, but they're even rooting up the tree roots in the old forest."

Yao Lijuan seemed to suddenly remember something: "Oh right, you're always running around in the mountains. If you come across any old ginseng that's been around for a long time, you must save some for me. We can negotiate the price."

Chen Yongqiang has a century-old ginseng in his space, which is used to refine body-tempering pills, and he would never sell it.

"Director Yao, this old ginseng is extremely rare, it depends entirely on the favor of the mountain god, it's all about fate. I'll try my best to keep an eye out, but I can't guarantee anything."

Yao Lijuan understood this principle: "As long as you have the intention, please remember me if you run into me."

"Nowadays, leaders value these rare and nutritious natural products."

Chen Yongqiang agreed first, and after saying goodbye to Yao Lijuan, he returned to the market and set up the remaining wild boar meat for sale.

Fortunately, I arrived early today, and the market was bustling with people, so the pork sold very well.

While greeting customers, he kept an eye on the direction of the market entrance, still thinking about the old woman selling rouge rice, wanting to buy more seeds.

The remaining Rouge Rice had already been planted in his spatial spiritual field; however, the existing seeds were far from sufficient for large-scale cultivation.

However, even after he sold out the last piece of wild boar meat and began packing up his stall, he never saw the old woman again.

Just as he finished packing up his stall and was about to go check on Wang Guixiang's vegetable stall, a commotion suddenly broke out at the market entrance.

Two hunters were seen carrying a wild boar in with great effort. The boar looked to weigh at least 200 pounds.

These two men were none other than the hunter brothers I had met a few days ago when I was buying a gun at the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Looks like they've already bought the guns. Now they have two more competitors." Chen Yongqiang glanced at them and left.

I'm going to have lunch at Wang Guixiang's rented place and spend some more time with her.
