Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 200 Parents Showing Off
While Chang Kun was chatting with Cheng Min and Old Li at the park entrance, Liu Meifen went to work at the supply and marketing cooperative.
As soon as I entered, I saw Director Song directing Xiao Yao and Da Liu to load the goods.
"Director Song, Xiao Yao and Da Liu, have you listened to the radio?" Liu Meifen was still excited; she hadn't slept until late last night.
She had just arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative today and wanted to share this great news.
Director Song turned around: "What's wrong? I listened to the radio last night, there wasn't any big news."
Xiao Yao and Da Liu shook their heads; they didn't have radios at home, let alone know what news was on.
"Ouch!" Liu Meifen slapped her thigh, her eyes widening as she asked, "Director, you listened to the radio, didn't you hear the last song?"
"The last piece?" Director Song murmured to himself, pausing for a moment before continuing.
"That song, I heard it, it's called 'Hometown,' right? It made me think of my old home in Yimeng Mountain for most of the night..."
Ignoring his inner turmoil, Liu Meifen continued, "Then, Director, do you know who composed this piece?"
"Who composed the music? I really didn't notice. Let me think... I think the surname is Chang? That's the same surname as your old man Chang."
Director Song frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter: "Could this composer be a relative of yours? Look at how excited you are."
"No wonder you became the director, I knew it! And it's not just my relatives..."
"Not just relatives? Then who is it?" Director Song exchanged a glance with Xiao Yao and Da Liu, and forgot about loading the goods, they surrounded Liu Meifen waiting for her to reveal the answer.
These days, anyone who can get on the radio is respected everywhere and is definitely a top expert in their field.
At this moment, Liu Meifen looked smug. Could it be that the composer was a member of the Chang family?
Just then, with a loud bang, the door of the supply and marketing cooperative was kicked open.
Immediately afterward, Wang Cuiqin burst in shouting, "Big news! Big news! Chang Kun, he..."
Seeing that Liu Meifen, Director Song, and the others had all turned to look at her, Wang Cuiqin chuckled and said, "Good morning, everyone!"
Director Song shook his head: "What, you two have big news so early in the morning?"
"Ahem, let me explain!" Liu Meifen saw Wang Cuiqin's expression and knew that she already knew about Chang Kun's composition.
Once everyone's attention had turned to her, Liu Meifen cleared her throat: "Um, the song 'Hometown' that was on the radio last night was composed by my husband, Chang Kun."
Upon hearing this, everyone except Wang Cuiqin, who looked on with envy, stared at Liu Meifen with their mouths agape in disbelief.
In the eyes of Director Song and his colleagues, Chang Kun was a skilled hunter, but they had never heard of him having any talent for composing music!
Moreover, it wasn't just some random country folk song; it was broadcast on the radio, so calling it a masterpiece is no exaggeration.
Is this still the same Chang Kun who hunts wild boars and wolves?
Wang Cuiqin clenched her fists tightly, secretly cursing herself for not being thick-skinned enough. If she had known Chang Kun was so capable, she would have insisted on introducing her niece to him no matter what!
It's too late to say anything now. I was chatting with Liu Meifen and heard that Chang Kun is about to get engaged. Sigh!
at the same time.
Inside the Gulou Police Station, Chang Dashan walked into the station chief's office.
"Uncle Chang, you're here?" Cheng Jie quickly stood up when he saw Chang Dashan enter.
Chang Dashan shouldn't be treated as an ordinary subordinate; he could very well be Cheng Min's future father-in-law, and they're all truly family.
Chang Dashan held up a piece of pork strung together with straw rope, gesturing to it: "Xiao Kun hunted a wild boar and said he wanted to give it to his Brother Cheng so he could get some meat."
We discussed it at home yesterday. There's a lot of meat from one pig, but the weather is too hot right now, so the meat won't keep for very long unless it's made into cured or preserved meat.
We can't finish eating it all, and we can't store it properly. We just sold one pig at the supply and marketing cooperative, and now we don't want to sell this one. It's a good opportunity to invite our relatives to eat together.
"Xiao Kun is too kind. I ate quite a bit of meat with him!" Cheng Jie accepted the meat with both hands, invited Chang Dashan to sit down, and said, "Uncle Chang, you seem to be in a good mood today, always smiling."
"Haha, I'm so happy! Good news, great news!" Chang Dashan took out his pipe and took a few puffs.
"What happened? Tell me?" Cheng Jie played the perfect straight man.
"Did you listen to the radio yesterday?" Seeing Cheng Jie shake his head, Chang Dashan looked regretful. "You missed it, but there should be another one tonight. You'll know when you listen to the radio tonight..."
Having said that, without waiting for Cheng Jieming to understand, she turned and left.
"Uncle Chang, please explain yourself clearly!" Cheng Jie shouted from behind. "I've been your straight man for nothing, and you're just giving me these incomplete jokes!"
……
at the same time.
Chang Kun and Cheng Min strolled along the lakeside of Beihai Park, chatting about their work and lives, while Old Li followed behind, chattering away.
"Cheng Min, you have to persuade Chang Kun to compose a good piece as soon as possible. With 'Hometown' playing on the radio right now, someone will definitely pay attention to your composition!"
During our casual chat earlier, Chang Kun let slip that Old Li had quite a few good songs in mind.
This was outrageous! As a veteran artist, Old Li couldn't let such a good piece go to waste. Seeing that Chang Kun refused to reveal the piece, he simply resorted to shamelessness and followed Chang Kun around.
"Hey Lao Li, we finally have some free time to go out for a walk, what's with you following behind us!"
Annoyed by the constant disturbance, Chang Kun stopped and turned around to glare fiercely at Old Li.
"Oh? Really? I was just wandering around, trying to find some good music. Hehehe, you guys go your way, I'll go mine..."
Chang Kun and Cheng Min were both speechless.
When an old man starts acting unreasonably, there's really nothing you can do about it.
"You stay here, Chang Kun, let's go to Neiliansheng." Cheng Min was also getting impatient. What's the point of having an old man sandwiched in between us when we're enjoying a nice time together?
Chang Kun looked down at his own shoes, then at Cheng Min's, and asked suspiciously, "Our shoes are all fine, what are we going there for?"
Old Li behind him chuckled: "Chang Kun, you're so young! Cheng Min is trying to buy shoes for her elders! Look at my shoes, they were bought for me by my granddaughter at Neiliansheng."
Cheng Min ignored him and whispered, "I...I wanted to buy a pair of shoes for the elderly."
Having always received so much care from Chang Kun without giving anything in return, I might as well buy Liu Meifen a nice pair of shoes.
"Alright, let's go then." Chang Kun ignored Old Li and walked side by side with Cheng Min.
"Hey, ride your bike to Dashilan, don't get lost!" Seeing this, Old Li knew he wouldn't get any more tunes from Chang Kun today, so he stopped following him.
"Alright, Uncle Li, goodbye!" Without turning his head, Chang Kun simply raised his arm and waved.
"Okay, it'd better see you later..." Old Li muttered to himself, then suddenly remembered something and shouted.
"Hey kid, don't just get the girl to buy you things! Remember to reciprocate! Wear a Ma Juyuan hat, Neiliansheng shoes, Ruifuxiang clothes, and a Four Great Hengs belt—"
Cheng Min grabbed Chang Kun's arm: "Let's go! Don't listen to him! This old man, still calling himself an artist? He's living in the past!"
