"daughter."

As Chang Kun entered the supply and marketing cooperative, he greeted his mother.

"Xiao Kun? What brings you here? Didn't you go to work?"

"My boss gave me a day off..."

Before she could finish speaking, Liu Meifen exclaimed in surprise, "Yesterday was your first day back at work, and today is your second day. What kind of holiday are you taking?!"

Wang Cuiqin, who was tidying up the shelves next to him, threw down her rag and leaned over to look at Chang Kun curiously. Her boss gave her a day off on her second day of work. She wanted to work at such a good company.

"My boss heard that I can hunt, so he asked me to get some meat when I have time to give to the company as a National Day bonus."

Liu Meifen and Wang Cuiqin suddenly realized that meat was scarce everywhere, and being able to hunt and obtain meat was the greatest contribution they could make to their unit.

If they were in charge, they would also tell Chang Kun to stop going to work and focus on hunting.

"Xiao Kun is living a really good life. He can go to work and still wander around." Wang Cuiqin said with an envious expression.

Just then, Director Song heard the noise and came out of his office: "Xiao Wang, you want to wander around too? Nobody's stopping you."

After being subtly mocked by her boss, Wang Cuiqin stuck out her tongue and turned back to continue organizing the shelves.

"Director Song."

"Hey, Chang Kun, your boss sent you hunting. If you get any meat, share some with our supply and marketing cooperative. We're all family here. Why not use the cooperative's slush fund to give our own people benefits?"

There was no one else in the supply and marketing cooperative at the time, and Director Song didn't shy away from speaking, laughing as he spoke.

Wang Cuiqin's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Xiao Kun, let's share some of the meat with the supply and marketing cooperative, so that the National Day benefits will look better."

The old woman stood by, smiling but saying nothing. She had plenty of meat at home, and it was her own son who was hunting, so she couldn't bring herself to speak up.

"Director Song, since you've asked, there must be meat." I still have to give my mother face as her direct supervisor at work.

"I knew Chang Kun was generous, haha. This packet of tea is a special supply, there's only a little bit, take it and have a taste."

Director Song took a small paper packet out of his pocket and handed it to Chang Kun.

Chang Kun had sold a lot of meat to the supply and marketing cooperative, and as the director of the cooperative, he felt obligated to do so and could not leave without showing some appreciation.

He opened the paper package and took a sniff; a pleasant fragrance filled the air. It was indeed good tea. Chang Kun happily put the tea bag into his pocket.

"Director Song, then I won't stand on ceremony with you."

He took his hand out of his pocket and casually held the women's watch he had received as a reward: "Mom, look what this is!"

"A watch? It's so beautiful. Where did you buy it? Is it for Xiaomin?" Liu Meifen took the watch in her hand and looked at it from all angles, her face full of admiration.

"Hehe, Mom, this wasn't bought, it was a reward from my workplace. I thought you didn't have a watch yet, so I put it on you."

"What?! A bonus from work?!" Liu Meifen stared wide-eyed at her son. It was only his first day at work yesterday!

Director Song quickly came over and looked at Chang Kun in shock. What had this kid done to get a watch as a reward?

Wang Cuiqin, ignoring the need to organize the shelves, threw down her rag and went to Liu Meifen's side, looking at the woman's watch with envy.

She glanced at Chang Kun, then turned to look at Director Song, muttering to herself, "Cough cough, I've worked at the supply and marketing cooperative for so many years, and I've never received such a good reward..."

Director Song glared at her: "Don't talk to me about rewards again until you stop yelling at customers!"

It became a characteristic of that era for employees of supply and marketing cooperatives to scold customers.

"Son, what happened? Didn't you just go to work yesterday?"

To clarify the watch's origin, the only thing I could do was tell my mother about catching the thief.

Chang Kun briefly recounted how he caught nine thieves on his first day of work.

He did not mention that he took action himself; he only said that he discovered the thief and his colleague made the arrest.

"Nine thieves caught in one day?" Liu Meifen felt like she was dreaming, and exchanged a glance with Wang Cuiqin and Director Song.

"Hehe, hehe, my son is really amazing." She was almost numb to her son's abilities.

She felt she could accept it if her son said he had earned enough to buy a Jeep.

Wang Cuiqin was a little frantic, lamenting in her heart, "My niece, you're so unlucky. You were a step too late and missed out on such a man."

"Tsk tsk, earning a watch a day, Chang Kun, you're so capable, I don't know how to praise you enough." Director Song shook his head, he only knew that Chang Kun was good at hunting, but he didn't expect that he was just as good at catching thieves.

The old woman held Chang Kun's arm, looked him up and down, and only felt relieved when she saw that he was alright.

As our son grew up, he started to only share good news and not bad news. He wouldn't tell his parents about any difficulties or dangers he encountered outside.

Others only see how much meat their son gets from hunting, but they never think about how dangerous it is in the mountains. Those wolves and black bears can eat people!

Yesterday, my son received a watch as a reward after just one day at work. He seemed quite relaxed, saying he found nine thieves, all of whom were caught by his colleagues. But each of those thieves was carrying a razor blade. What if they suddenly attacked and hurt someone? My son…

The thought sent chills down her spine!

"Xiao Kun, in the future, when we encounter situations like this, we should step back and avoid rushing forward blindly." My mother's words were the same as my aunt's, both stemming from a deep and loving heart.

"Hey, Mom, I know. Your son isn't stupid. I stay far away from any danger." Chang Kun comforted his mother, putting his arm around her shoulder.

"Let's not talk about that anymore, Mom. Try on the watch and see if the strap fits."

"Yes, yes, try it on quickly. It's a Shanghai brand. I think it will look good on your auntie's wrist." Wang Cuiqin urged from the side, she liked the watch more and more the more she looked at it.

She had been working for several years but had never bought a watch, while Liu Meifen had only been working for a month and her son was already being so filial, giving his mother a watch to wear.

The difference in fate between people is truly vast.

Holding the watch in one hand and gently stroking it with the other, Liu Meifen smiled and said, "It's a pity that I'm so old, wearing such a beautiful watch. When Xiao Kun and Xiao Min get married, I, as their mother-in-law, will give it to my daughter-in-law as a gift."

The people from the supply and marketing cooperative were all taken aback.

"Mom, we won't lack anything, so don't worry about it."

He took the watch and was about to put it on his mother's wrist when Chang Kun, who had been prepared, realized that he had a white jade bracelet in his spatial storage. He had obtained it while digging for treasure in the courtyard, and it would be perfect as a gift for Cheng Min. It could also be a small heirloom for the family.

Liu Meifen grabbed Chang Kun's hand, snatched the watch from him, and glared at him: "Listen to me. Xiaomin lost her mother when she was young. We can't let her suffer in our Chang family."

Director Song looked on with admiration, giving Liu Meifen a big thumbs up: "No wonder Xiao Kun is so generous, she takes after her mother! I wouldn't even give my daughter-in-law such a watch, but you gave it to her without hesitation, truly admirable!"

Wang Cuiqin muttered sourly from the side, "Cheng Min is such a lucky girl. She's so fortunate to be a daughter-in-law of the Chang family! Not only is her husband capable, but her mother-in-law is also so wonderful!"
