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

A small wild boar, when roasted, yields about ten pounds of meat.

The family of three adults and four girls ate the roast suckling pig clean.

"belch……"

The four girls, burping contentedly, slumped on the stone bench, too tired to move.

The eldest brother's roast suckling pig was so delicious that they couldn't help but eat and eat, and now they feel like their stomachs are about to burst.

Chang Dashan picked his teeth with a thin bone and asked Chang Kun, "Xiao Kun, what should we do with these remaining wild boars? We're thinking of waiting until your wedding, but they'll probably spoil if we leave them too long."

Chang Kun thought for a moment: "Then... we'll bake the rest of them? Bake them dry so they won't spoil easily."

He felt he had made a mistake; if he hadn't brought the wild boar home, he could have simply put it in a storage space to keep it fresh, and all this trouble wouldn't have been necessary.

The four girls perked up immediately when they heard that they were going to roast all the other wild boars.

They jumped right up from the stone bench.

"Big brother, I'll grill it!"

"Me too!"

They were very enthusiastic because it was so fun.

……

Just as Chang Kun was making roast suckling pig with the little girls.

In the northern part of the city, at Minister Wang's home, lies a simple courtyard house.

"Mommy, don't cry, I'm alright now," a four- or five-year-old girl said in a childish voice.

A dignified woman standing nearby couldn't hold back her tears. She hugged the little girl tightly, still shaken by the experience.

"Alright, Mother, my little sister is perfectly fine, she just keeps crying." A girl in her early twenties pouted and said irritably.

"You brat! Your sister almost got into trouble twice! Do you think everyone is as heartless as you!"

"My life is so miserable! Your father is no better. Just listen to what he said today—he'd rather your sister be in danger than let the human traffickers go!"

"Waaaaah... Your Wang family is just bullying me because my family has no one to rely on! Waaaaah..."

"Everyone says daughters are like warm cotton-padded jackets, but I think you're heartless..."

The young woman in her early twenties frowned. Her mother had been crying for hours and wouldn't eat dinner. Her father had tried to comfort her for a long time to no avail, and he got a little angry, so he turned around and went back to his room to drink alone.

"Mother, let's discuss how to thank the police officer who saved my little sister. We can't be careless about this."

"That's true..." The woman finally stopped crying, lifted herself up to wipe her tears, and asked, "What idea do you have?"

The girl thought for a moment, then counted on her fingers: "To thank someone, you either give them money or gifts, they're pretty much the same... Or, you could try to give them some recognition, a promotion..."

"A promotion?" The woman's voice rose, looking at the girl with surprise, pointing to the door, "With your father, you think he'll show favoritism? Not even in your next life!"

The girl sighed. It was true, that old man was incredibly rigid!

In families like that, other people would at least manage to become minor leaders at their workplaces, unlike her, who is still a lowly nobody at the bottom.

The thought of this made her feel exhausted...

The only way to thank that junior policeman is to give him gifts.

But when I was at the platform in the afternoon, I heard that the police officer had taken his colleagues into the mountains to hunt. They had killed eight wild boars in half a day. I doubt that ordinary animals would be so valuable.

"Mom, what good stuff do we have at home? Let me see what would be a good gift for the young policeman."

The woman glared at the girl: "So what if you're a police officer? Why are you calling yourself 'little police officer'? I think you're about your age, and you're capable at work, and you're a good hunter too..."

She paused as she spoke, stealing a glance at the girl.

"Hey! Mom, what are you thinking about now?!" the girl said coquettishly, stamping her foot.

She knew that look in her mother's eyes all too well; every time I tried to introduce her to someone, she'd steal a glance at her like that.

"Hehe, hehe...it's nothing." The woman wasn't embarrassed at all, her eyes darting around as she thought about her eldest daughter's marriage.

She's already in her mid-twenties; if she keeps wasting her time, she'll be an old maid. That young policeman today was very capable, had good character, and was also quite handsome.

Or, why don't you try asking someone?

Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still any longer. She shoved the little girl in her arms into her eldest daughter's hands: "Keep a close eye on your sister. If she gets lost again, don't bother coming back!"

"Hmph!" The girl rolled her eyes, watching her mother enter the room, knowing that her mother was about to play matchmaker again.

No, I'll go to the railway police tomorrow and find that junior officer. I can't let this old woman get away with it.

She's always wanted to get married, but she's not that old and wants to stay home and enjoy life for a few more years! Who wants to have a mother-in-law over their head?

Sure enough, a short while later, shouts and curses came from inside the house: "You bastard surnamed Wang, you don't care about the little girl's safety, you don't care about the eldest daughter's marriage, all you do is drink all day long, why don't you just drink yourself to death with that bottle?!"

A moment later, the old woman rushed out carrying a bottle of liquor, pointing at the girl: "Go, dig out that jar of old liquor under the sycamore tree!"

"Huh? Mom, wasn't that something Grandpa left behind, saying it's for when I get married..." The girl was dumbfounded. Was her mother really going to do this?!

The woman tapped the girl's forehead: "By the time you and your father get to know each other, you won't be married even at thirty!"

Minister Wang, looking dejected, came out of the house. Hearing his wife's words, he became anxious!

"Liu Meiling, what are you going to do now!"

"Reckless? Me, reckless? You want your eldest daughter to stay home all the time, right?"

Minister Wang's face flushed red: "What nonsense are you talking about! Look at the rubbish your old ladies are introducing to Hongxia!"

He had indeed introduced some undesirable men to his eldest daughter before, leaving the woman speechless. Then, after a moment's thought, she snapped, "You old Wang, the police just saved that girl twice, and you're talking about them like that?!"

Minister Wang hurriedly said, "No, that's not what I meant..."

"What does that mean? Are you looking down on her because of her low rank as a police officer? Or do you think she's not good enough for Hongxia?"

"No, you're being too hasty. You don't even know if that junior police officer has a girlfriend or not, and you're already spouting nonsense!"

The woman blinked and fell silent, something he hadn't considered.

"Anyway, you're just bullying my Liu family because we have no one. If his maternal grandfather were still alive, he would have settled Hongxia's marriage long ago."

Unable to win the argument, the woman started to argue unreasonably.

The eldest daughter, Hongxia, put her hand to her forehead, looking quite helpless. Here we go again with this.

Since my maternal grandfather passed away, my mother's family has had no relatives left.

Whenever she couldn't win an argument with her father, she would bring this up, accusing him of bullying her because she had no family to rely on.

When Hongxia recalled Chang Kun's appearance, she always felt that he looked a bit like her grandfather when he was young.

I must talk to that junior policeman tomorrow and make things clear: whether he has a girlfriend or not, even if he's good-looking and capable, it has nothing to do with me.

Anyway, I don't want to get married so early. My mother has been trying to interfere in her marriage, which is really annoying!
