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

Seeing that Liu Meilin was not going into the house, Chang Dashan hurriedly got off the kang (a heated brick bed) and dragged a burlap sack out from under the octagonal table.

"Take a look, have you seen this before?" Chang Dashan pulled out the giant rat that Chang Kun had stomped on yesterday from the sack.

"Oh my, it's a rat spirit!" Liu Meilin took a step back, startled.

Liu Meifen and Chang Dashan smiled.

They had the same reaction when they first saw the giant rat yesterday; everyone thought it was a ground rat that had come to life.

"Come on, let's go inside. The little ones need to get up too."

Chang Dashan pulled Liu Meilin into the house and called the little girls to call him uncle.

"Meilin, when you get back, bring back a greyhound and a ground mouse for Xiaoshui to try." Xiaoshui is Liu Meilin's daughter.

"Brother-in-law, you got another shipment? And a greyhound too? You have a lot of family members, keep it for yourself."

"Hehe." Chang Dashan scratched his head without saying anything.

Liu Meifen grabbed the sack, held it up in front of Liu Meilin, and waved it twice:

"What? You don't know how your brother-in-law caught you? Xiao Kun caught you at the foot of the mountain yesterday."

"What? Xiao Kun caught him? He wouldn't do something like that!"

Liu Meilin had been angry with her nephew for a long time.

It's only Chang Kun's own fault for being useless; he can't do anything and is too lazy to do anything, no wonder his uncle looks down on him.

Just two years ago, Chang Kun went to his uncle's house. It was about to rain, and he needed to collect the corn that was drying.

Chang Kun didn't even lend a hand, which made Liu Meilin furious.

"They were all caught by Xiao Kun and his men, quite a few of them." Chang Dashan flipped the sack over and dumped the squirrels and field mice inside onto the ground.

"Wow, that's a lot!"

The sight of three squirrels and over twenty field mice piled up in a small heap on the ground truly startled Liu Meilin.

Did Xiao Kun really do this? When did he become so capable?

Seeing Liu Meilin's surprised expression, Liu Meifen smiled, puffing out her chest with a hint of pride:

"Your nephew has grown up and become sensible; he knows how to help the family now."

"Big brother is the best! And the wild rabbit is delicious too! The soybeans are delicious too!"

Chang Qing rubbed her eyes and helped her mother out; she had really eaten a lot of good food these past two days.

"And there are seasonal birds, and grass turtles!" Chang Mu added from the side.

"Delicious!" The voices of the group woke up Xiao Changxiu. Hearing that it was delicious, she immediately widened her eyes.

Everyone laughed, except for Liu Meilin, who stared wide-eyed.

This……

Were the seasonal birds, grass turtles, wild rabbits, greyhounds, and ground squirrels all caught by Little Kun? ...

Is this really the nephew I know?

"Alright, stop standing there. We happened to have a wild rabbit left over from yesterday, let's stew it together. Xiao Kun and the others also took more than 20 jin of soybeans and corn."

Liu Meilin listened in a daze. There were still more than twenty kilograms of soybeans and corn?

It sounds so far-fetched; his family doesn't even have that much grain.

"Where's Xiao Kun? Where did he go? Let me see him, he looks completely different all of a sudden. I heard he got fired, and I was thinking of coming over to teach him a lesson."

"He took some people to the foot of the mountain early this morning, saying he was going to see if he could catch anything."

Liu Meifen took out the chilled rabbit meat from the water, and chatted with her younger brother while lighting a fire to boil water.

"He's become much more diligent; he never used to get up this early." Chang Dashan nodded.

"Okay, that's good. You seem to be quite sensible. It's just a pity about that job."

"What else can I say? He lost his job, and there's nothing I can do about it. Xiao Kun has matured and learned his lesson. You don't know, after he lost his job, that family he was supposed to marry into..."

Liu Meifen complained to her younger brother about the shamelessness of the Qin family, saying that they wanted to ask for more money even after the bride price had already been paid.

Just as the family was gathered around the stove chatting about everyday matters, a voice called out from outside the courtyard: "Auntie, Auntie!"

Liu Meifen peeked out and saw that it was the child of Chang Dashan's uncle and cousin, named Gouwa, who was only eight years old.

"Gouwa, what are you doing here?" Liu Meifen greeted him as she walked into the yard.

"Auntie, my father sent me to deliver a message. He said that Brother Kun took the second son of the Zhang family to hunt wild boars in the deep mountains."

At this time, as the army of people gathering to dig for wild vegetables gathered, news of Chang Kun going into the mountains to hunt wild boars had already quietly spread throughout the village.

Chang Dashan, who was in the main room, heard this and rushed out: "What did you say? Didn't Xiao Kun go to the foot of the mountain to catch wild rabbits?"

Gouwa shrugged and shook his head: "I don't know. My dad just sent me to deliver a message saying that Brother Kun borrowed the brigade leader's gun and took Zhang Lao Er to the deep mountains."

Chang Dashan glared and sighed. His son had been gone for a long time, and he couldn't catch up with him. He could only let him go.

Liu Meifen was also furious. This son of hers, he still wouldn't tell his mother the truth!

Are those deep mountains and forests places that ordinary people can go to?

I've heard that there are not only wild boars, but also wolves, and the older generation even says they've seen bears.

What if we encounter these things?

It was that old man Chang Dashan who always made sure to go into the mountains with two or three close friends, for fear of encountering any accidents.

"Look at your son! What if he runs into a wolf or a bear?!"

Liu Meifen was furious and glared fiercely at Chang Dashan.

Chang Dashan was caught in the crossfire innocently and blinked.

I thought to myself: When the son is doing well, he's your son; but when he gets into trouble, he becomes my son? This old woman really can change her mind!

"Alright, going into those mountains, it's not that easy to find wild boars. As for wolves and bears, I've been in the mountains for half my life and I've never encountered any of those things."

"Yes, sister, those are just rumors passed down by the older generation. Who has actually seen them?"

The two people's comforting words had some effect, and Liu Meifen felt slightly relieved. She gritted her teeth and muttered to herself:

"It's only been two days, and that little brat is causing trouble again. When he gets back, I'll give him a good beating!"

Liu Meilin chuckled: "Alright, Xiao Kun probably didn't tell you because he was afraid you'd worry."

I reckon he only carried the gun for self-defense. If wild boars were that easy to find, the villagers would have shot them all down long ago.

Chang Dashan nodded. "That's right. In all the years I've been up in the mountains, I've only seen wild boars twice. As soon as I saw one, it would dart away and disappear in a flash. There was no time to raise my gun."

Liu Meifen glared at Chang Dashan. "That's not necessarily true. My son can catch ground rats. He caught so many greyhounds and ground rats in a day. Can you do that?"

Chang Dashan, Liu Meilin: ...

Now he's back to being your son...

at the same time.

The village women gathered at the village entrance to go to a place five miles outside the village to pick wild vegetables. There was no other way, as all the wild vegetables in the nearby areas had been picked clean.

As the old saying goes, three women are equal to five hundred ducks. Before they had even finished gathering, the story of Chang Kun borrowing a gun to take Zhang Ershazi to hunt wild boars in the deep mountains had already spread far and wide.

These days, giving someone two ground squirrels as a gift is just plain stupid.

Chang Da Shazi took Zhang Er Shazi into the deep mountains, hoping to hunt wild boars?

That's pure fantasy!

Jin Sanjia, who was sitting at the village entrance, made even more outrageous remarks, saying that if someone like Chang Kun could hunt wild boars, he would eat wild boar excrement!

Many villagers burst into laughter upon hearing this.

If Chang Kun were there, he would definitely say, "You haven't even eaten the field mouse droppings from last time, and now you want to eat wild boar droppings."

Even scamming for food and drinks isn't done this way...
