Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

"Mom, I'm taking my little sister to play."

When Chang Kun arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, Chang Mu immediately rushed to his older brother's side, put her little hand into his palm, and grinned happily.

Liu Meifen looked up at her son, then glanced at Cheng Min hiding behind him, and smiled gently.

"My face is all sunburned in this hot weather."

She walked to the popsicle box by the door, took out three popsicles, and handed one to Cheng Min first.

"Thank you, ma'am..." Cheng Min lowered her head, not daring to look at anyone, feeling a little shy. The two of them had just held hands in the park, and her heart was still pounding.

Chang Mu licked her popsicle and muttered under her breath, "They wouldn't buy me a popsicle when I wanted one, but when Sister Xiaomin came, she immediately pretended to be generous."

Hearing this, Cheng Min felt even more embarrassed and quickly turned around and left the supply and marketing cooperative.

"You're so talkative, don't eat the popsicle!" Liu Meifen pretended to snatch the popsicle back, and Chang Mu was so frightened that she screamed and ran out to chase after Cheng Min.

Chang Kun was secretly pleased. This Xiao Mu used to be like a block of wood, rarely speaking and never joking. Now that her family's financial situation has improved, she has become much more cheerful.

Seeing Cheng Min and Chang Mu walk out, Liu Meifen leaned close to Chang Kun's ear and whispered, "Xiao Kun, don't be impatient. Don't bully Xiao Min... Our family just broke off the engagement with the Qin family. It's best to wait a while before going to the Cheng family to propose marriage."

Hearing this, Chang Kun felt a little embarrassed, and even a little amused. Was his family really that impatient?

Could it be that my attitude towards Qin Meiru in my past life left a really bad impression on my mother?

He got on his bike and took his younger sister and Cheng Min home.

He went straight to the chicken coop and reached out to grab a hen.

"Big brother, Mom said she's going to beat someone if we eat any more laying hens!" Chang Qing quickly reminded his older brother when he saw him grabbing a hen.

"Just tell me, do you want to eat pheasant soup?"

Chang Qing nodded frantically. The dragon soup that day was so delicious that she wished she could eat it every day.

"Big brother, let me help you pluck the chicken feathers..." she said ingratiatingly. With her big brother as her backer, she wasn't afraid of her mother beating her up.

Cheng Min went into the main room to talk to Chang Mei and play with Xiao Bao.

Chang Kun handed the slaughtered hen and the flying dragon to his younger sister so they could pluck their feathers, while he went to the riverbank.

Less than an hour later, Chang Kun returned, his basket half full of river delicacies.

There were eight or nine yellow catfish, four or five large yellow eels, three bass, and a large pile of small river shrimp.

They are all the best-tasting seafood from the river.

Upon entering the main room, one sees chicken pieces and grouse meat chunks neatly arranged, while Cheng Min is teaching the little girls to read picture books on the east kang (heated brick bed).

"Sister Xiaomin, why does Sun Wukong always hit the old lady? Is it because she's hiding candy from her?" This was Chang Mu's voice.

Before Cheng Min could explain, Chang Qing loudly interrupted, "Xiao Mu, you're so stupid! Sun Wukong is an adult, he doesn't like sweets! Didn't you see there were steamed buns in the old lady's basket? She must have refused to give Sun Wukong any, that's why he got beaten!"

Cheng Min and Chang Mei both have a low threshold for laughter, and they laughed heartily while listening, which made Xiao Bao giggle.

"Xiao Qing, Xiao Mu, come down and wash the fish and shrimp. Your big brother caught your favorite shrimp."

"Big brother, I'm here!" Chang Qing jumped off the kang (a heated brick bed), and then his older sister and younger sister Cheng Min came to the stove to help.

My parents weren't home for lunch, so there were six of us in total. Chang Kun cooked six dishes.

Flying dragon soup, fried river shrimp, steamed sea bass, braised eel segments, stewed yellow catfish, plus a stir-fried wild vegetable with eggs.

Seeing such a lavish meal, Cheng Min felt embarrassed.

"Xiaomin, don't be shy. When you're not here, Xiaokun cooks this for us too." Changmei, as the eldest sister, ladled a bowl of dragon soup for Chengmin.

"Try it, Xiao Kun's cooking is absolutely amazing."

Cheng Min took a small sip and raised her eyebrows. This taste was truly extraordinary, far superior to the dragon soup her elder brother had cooked last night.

Of course, boiled grouse and grouse cooked in chicken broth will definitely taste completely different.

Six dishes seemed like a lot, but the three little girls, like three little open-mouthed beasts, ate every last bit of meat and soup.

"Big brother...big brother, my stomach is about to burst..."

Chang Qing and Chang Mu, clutching their bellies, moved to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and lay down, groaning softly.

Chang Xiu had already drifted off to sleep from exhaustion. Chang Kun held her in his arms and took out a handful of preserved plums to share.

Within minutes, the other two little girls also fell asleep, and Chang Mei and Cheng Min chatted with Xiao Bao.

Chang Kun watched this scene from the sidelines. The family was harmonious and happy, and the children were chatting. This was something he could never have imagined in his previous life.

……

On the other side, inside the subdistrict office.

"Second Aunt, please help me! My father is in real trouble this time!"

Yan Fengzheng pleaded for leniency in Director Wang's office.

"How am I supposed to explain this to Chang Kun? You took his house when you didn't need him, and now you want to give it back?"

Director Wang pointed at Yan Feng's nose and launched into a tirade.

"I'm too ashamed to say it, so you'll have to ask someone yourself!"

Yan Feng, with a mournful face, dared not speak of the fact that he had taken Chang Kun's house from behind, let alone plead with Chang Kun for help.

"Second Aunt, my dad said that if Chang Kun can help find the grain coupons, he'll buy all the furniture in the house."

"Pah! That's all your dad's got! What kind of time is this? He still expects people to finish their work before he pays them?"

Director Wang's finger was almost poking Yan Feng's face when she launched into another tirade of anger, after which she sighed.

He's the head of the household's younger brother, his own brother-in-law. How could he just stand by and watch someone die?

"Go back and tell your father I'll go and ask someone to help. Whether or not we can find the grain coupons, he'll have someone take care of the house renovations!"

Yan Feng hesitated and didn't dare to speak, only looking at Director Wang with a fawning expression.

"Get out of here! Go back and explain things to your father; I'll go get someone!"

Watching Yan Feng slink away, Director Wang sat on the stool sulking for a while before reluctantly standing up.

……

Chang family.

The afternoon went by so quickly. Cheng Min felt like she had only chatted for a short while, but most of the day had already passed.

The basket contained the remaining yellow catfish, eels, and perch, which were brought to Cheng Rongjiang to have with his drinks. Chang Kun escorted Cheng Min home.

When I returned home, my parents had just gotten home from get off work.

"Father, Mother, you're back."

Chang Dashan nodded, looked at his son, and grinned.

Today, the director of the neighborhood office next door came to him and said that the house had been arranged for him.

Chang Dashan quickly thanked Director Wang.

To his surprise, Director Wang was even more polite than him, waving his hand and saying that it was what Chang Kun deserved.

Furthermore, there is an important matter I need to ask Chang Kun to do, and I urge him to visit her tomorrow morning.

Having worked at the police station for almost a month, Chang Dashan knew that the director of the neighboring street office was a very high-ranking official, but he never expected that such a high-ranking official would need to ask his son for help.

Now, the more he looks at his son, the more satisfied he becomes.

Before the topic of the house could even be brought up, Liu Meifen yelled, "Eating the hen again! I'm keeping it to lay eggs!"

Liu Meifen took three eggs from the henhouse, walked up to Chang Kun, and pointed at her son's forehead with her finger.

"Go ahead and eat them. You'll finish these hens sooner or later!"

"Hehe, Mother, Cheng Min is here, so we have to treat her well."

"You always have the most to say!" Liu Meifen didn't want to talk to her son and turned to leave.

"Mother, next time Cheng Min comes to our house, will you still kill a hen for her?" Chang Kun asked with a laugh from behind.

*Slap!* Chang Dashan slapped his son on the shoulder. "You're just trying to upset your mother..."

"Director Wang from the neighborhood office next door came to see me today..."

After recounting the story, he asked Chang Kun, "Son, what kind of house did Director Wang find for our family? She said it's the courtyard I told you about last time."

Along the way, he kept thinking about how he had heard that it was extremely difficult to get housing in the city, and that many families of three or four people were crammed into one room.

If this family of six is ​​only allocated one room, they will have to squeeze into one room, which is worse than living in the countryside.

Even if the commute to work is long, it's still much better than living in a cramped place.
