Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 332 They're all relatives
After several rounds of thanking him, Chang Kun grew impatient; he hated these kinds of things the most. Suddenly, he heard his brother-in-law's stomach rumbling.
He said, "Brother-in-law, you haven't eaten anything on the way, have you? I'll take you to get something to eat."
Yang Lijun shook his head: "No, no, we're almost home. We can get something to fill our stomachs when we get back."
"Stop nagging and come with me. Do you think I'd let you leave hungry? My sister would kill me if I did..." Chang Kun said, pulling Yang Lijun along with his other hand and holding onto Yang Liwu.
"Brother-in-law, elder brother, you have to listen to me."
After finally managing to get the group to the cafeteria entrance, Yang Lijun refused to go in: "Xiao Kun, this won't do. You've only been working here a short time. How can you treat others to a meal in the cafeteria? We can't make a mistake."
"Tsk, brother-in-law, I never knew you were such a dawdler!" Chang Kun shouted into the cafeteria, ignoring everything else, "Chef Li, what else is left in there? Get me some."
Chef Li replied impatiently, "Who is it, coming to eat so late?"
Seeing no response, he went out and looked around. His stern face immediately broke into a smile: "Oh, it's Chang Kun! I didn't recognize your voice. What would you like to eat? I'll get it for you."
Chang Kun, a capable person who could get his hands on meat, was treated very politely by everyone in the company.
"Mr. Li, could you please help me get something to eat? My brother-in-law just got off the train and we happened to run into each other..."
"Alright, no matter who's missing food, you, Chang Kun, can't be left out. Everyone in the unit benefits from your presence." Chef Li walked into the kitchen and instructed his apprentice to reheat the remaining mutton soup.
At that time, conditions were limited, and it was rare to find mutton soup at work.
"Brother-in-law, Brother Yang, let's just grab something to eat in the cafeteria."
Yang Lijun asked quietly, "Xiao Kun, this is too much trouble for them. I heard you were the one who hunted the sheep?"
"Yeah, I went up the mountain yesterday and ran into a blue sheep, so I fought it."
Yang Lijun glanced at his brother-in-law, scratched his head, and wondered if his wife had been lying all along.
It seems like this brother-in-law is quite capable; not only does he have a job, but he can also hunt sheep on the mountain.
You should know that the value of a sheep is at least equivalent to the work of an adult laborer for one or two years. The brother-in-law easily caught one by going up the mountain.
The two had only exchanged a few words when Chef Li came out carrying a large bowl of mutton soup, with several pieces of meat and bones piled at the bottom.
"Chang Kun, there are still a few cornbread buns left in the pot, reheat them. This is all the food we have at work, so please make do."
"Hey, thank you for your help. Have a smoke." Chang Kun handed out cigarettes to the people in the kitchen and then helped Yang Liwu and his family to their seats in the cafeteria.
"Uncle Yang, Auntie, Sister-in-law, please don't be so polite."
"Brother-in-law, eat quickly, we'll talk after you finish eating."
Yang Lijun had a lot of questions, but when he saw the mutton soup glistening with oil being served, he swallowed hard.
Without further ado, he picked out a piece of meat bone and handed it to Xiao Ya, then invited Yang Liwu's family to start eating.
"It smells so good! Xiao Kun, you're really something! I never heard your sister say you were a hunter!"
The group was starving, but they ate cornbread and drank mutton soup, feeling completely at ease.
"Brother-in-law, I earned this job by hunting."
Yang Lijun nodded: "I knew it! Our family doesn't have any powerful connections in the city, so how did you manage to get a job in the city, and even become a police officer for the railway company? That's no ordinary organization!"
Chang Kun chuckled and remained silent. For him, work was no longer a difficult task.
"By the way, are your parents doing well? I won't be able to take care of them since I joined the army."
Chang Kun knew his brother-in-law was referring to his parents, so he nodded and said, "They're both fine, eating and sleeping well. My eldest sister stayed at home with Xiao Bao for a while recently to help look after Xiao Qing and the others."
"Huh? What do you mean? Xiaoqing and the others don't need to help go up the mountain to dig for wild vegetables?"
Chang Kun chuckled: "Brother-in-law, that's all in the past. Now both Mom and Dad work in the city. Dad works at the Gulou Police Station, and Mom works at the supply and marketing cooperative... I'll take you to see them later."
"What? Really?!" Yang Lijun jumped up. This news was even more unbelievable than the fact that Chang Kun was working for the railway police.
My father-in-law and mother-in-law were farmers for half their lives, and now they've moved to the city, working at the police station and the supply and marketing cooperative.
If his brother-in-law hadn't worked for the railway police, he would have thought his brother-in-law was talking nonsense.
"What happened, Xiao Kun, explain yourself clearly!" Yang Lijun grabbed Chang Kun's arm, his face filled with surprise and joy.
"Brother-in-law, sit down. Take your time eating, and I'll talk slowly."
Chang Kun briefly recounted how he hunted wild boars and black bears to help his parents find jobs, and then mentioned that his whole family now lives in the city.
Not only was Yang Lijun speechless, but even Yang Liwu next to him opened his mouth wide, forgetting to drink the mutton soup.
"This... Brother Chang, was your family really farmers before? Listening to you tell this, it sounds like you're a storyteller..."
Yang Lijun snapped out of his daze and chuckled, "Don't I know my father-in-law's family?"
"Wow! This is unbelievable, it's like a dream! My brother-in-law can not only hunt wild boars, he can even hunt black bears!"
"Brother-in-law, it's all good luck. Eat up, and I'll take you home after you're full. You haven't been home for almost a year, you must miss home a lot."
"That's right, Brother Liwu, eat up, let's go home after we finish eating." Hearing that his father-in-law's family was doing so well now, Yang Lijun was first surprised, then full of joy, and even the mutton soup tasted much better.
After eating a few more bites, he suddenly remembered something: "Xiao Kun, what medicine did you give Xiao Ya earlier? How come her fever subsided so quickly?"
"That's bear bile powder, it's quite effective at reducing fever."
Yang Liwu, standing nearby, exclaimed, "Brother Chang, I've heard bear bile is quite valuable!"
"Brother Yang, we're all relatives, so don't say that! After we finish eating, I'll take you to the supply and marketing cooperative. If you want to buy anything in the future, just go to my mother's. She has a lot of substandard goods there, and you don't need coupons."
Yang Liwu and his family were all happy and did not refuse to go to the supply and marketing cooperative.
These days, people can get a lot of convenience when buying things if they have relatives in the supply and marketing cooperative.
Speaking of this, Chang Kun suddenly remembered Sister Wang: "Brother-in-law, your sister-in-law, Sister Wang Cuiqin, is there too."
Yang Lijun's face lit up with surprise: "Really? So many members of our family have moved to the city! That's wonderful!"
After finishing the last bit of mutton soup in his bowl, he couldn't wait any longer and urged everyone to hurry up and leave.
Chang Kun asked the section chief for half a day off and led a group of people to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Halfway there, Yang Lijun hesitated: "Xiao Kun, I just got back and didn't have time to buy anything. It's too much of a hassle to come empty-handed..."
"Brother-in-law, Mom will be happy to see you as soon as you get back, so don't overthink it."
As Liu Meifen walked through the gates of the supply and marketing cooperative, she looked up and said, "Xiao Kun, what brings you here? Did you take the day off again?"
Chang Kun stepped aside, revealing Yang Lijun behind him: "Mom, look who this is?"
