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

Everyone in the section chief's office had a happy expression on their face.

They were extremely satisfied to receive commendations from their work unit, a collective third-class merit award, and an individual third-class prize.

When they went out on patrol, everyone held their heads high and felt like heroes of the new era.

Before long, everyone in the unit knew about the commendation and award, and everyone was jubilant.

"Chang Kun, congratulations!"

"Old Lei, you must be happy to have won an award!"

"Monkey, you've done a great service and been promoted to Monkey King!"

People who knew them well joked with them.

Lu Jiawei was the happiest, his mouth twitching into a wide grin.

These days, having a third-class merit award is more respected than any salary or rank.

Offering such a condition in the matchmaking market is a killer move.

I'll ask my mother to help me find a girl from the countryside to date. With the added honor of a third-class merit, I can choose any girl I want.

Being so popular with everyone made the workday go by exceptionally fast.

When it was time to leave work, Lü Jiawei, Hou Jun, and Xiao Yu were still reluctant to leave, wishing they could work a little longer.

Even veterans Lei Guohong and Lao Zeng had flushed faces, reluctant to go home.

Chang Kun rode his bicycle into the alley and saw a group of people gathered at the alley entrance in the distance.

As I passed by, I heard someone mention the name "Chang Kun".

He was startled. Someone had come looking for him?

Squeezing into the crowd, he spotted Minister Wang and his family at a glance.

What's this? They found out where he lives; are they here to thank him?

"Minister Wang, what brings you here?"

He went up and greeted them.

"Chang Kun, you really live here. I'm glad I didn't come to the wrong place." Before Minister Wang could speak, his wife greeted him.

Chang Kun paused, unsure of how to address him.

Minister Wang's wife didn't stand on ceremony and said happily, "Chang Kun, my Hongxia is about your age, so just call me Aunt Liu."

Wang Hongxia, standing nearby, rolled her eyes and muttered silently, "Aunt Liu, indeed. Why doesn't she adopt a godson? That would sound much more affectionate..."

When she returned home from Chang Kun's workplace, she told her mother that Chang Kun already had a girlfriend and told her not to interfere anymore.

To my surprise, my mother didn't believe her at all and thought she was just making up lies to avoid blind dates.

Later, she even asked someone to find out where Chang Kun lived, and rushed over that very day, wanting to see if she could snatch the young man as her son-in-law.

This made Wang Hongxia, who had initially found Chang Kun quite agreeable, now glare at him fiercely with a huff.

Chang Kun readily agreed, smiling and saying, "Aunt Liu, hello! My mother is from the same clan as you."

"Hey, good boy."

The mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law and liked him more and more. Liu Meiling had just found out from the crowd that Chang Kun lived in a separate courtyard house.

To be able to live in a house with one family, you either need to have strong connections or be very capable.

She was very satisfied with every single one of them.

"Minister Wang, Aunt Liu, please come to my house for a visit."

Since they've come to us, we should definitely treat them well.

Chang Kun looked around and spotted Old Man Liang, who often sat under the tree playing chess. He called out, "Uncle Liang, could you go to the supply and marketing cooperative and tell my mother we have guests?"

Grandpa Liang agreed, muttering to himself, "This guest at Xiao Changkun's house is quite something. He arrived in a car; he seems to have quite a presence."

Chang Kun led the way, taking Minister Wang and his family to the courtyard house at No. 99.

Liu Meiling, holding the youngest girl's hand, whispered, "Before we came, you kept saying you wanted to find Brother Chang Kun. Why didn't you say a word when we arrived?"

The little girl lowered her head, feeling embarrassed. She always felt a sense of familiarity when she saw Chang Kun, but when she actually got closer, she felt a little shy.

Liu Meiling sighed. The eldest daughter was as wild as a boy, and even though she was getting on in years, she still refused to go on blind dates or get married.

The little girl is too quiet and timid, like a kitten. She wouldn't even know to run away if she were kidnapped by human traffickers.

I don't know who the two girls resemble, but there's no one like them in the Liu family...

As Chang Kun entered the courtyard, Liu Meiling glanced around and couldn't help but be amazed.

Even with the discerning eye of a minister's wife, she couldn't find any fault with this little courtyard.

Although it's not particularly luxurious, it's perfect for home life.

There is a fishpond in the southeast corner, where many fish are kept, and a few grass turtles are resting on the rocks.

There's a small hut in the southwest corner that looks like a shower room.

Being able to take a shower when you're drenched in sweat in the summer is incredibly refreshing.

There are two trees in the courtyard: a jujube tree, whose jujubes have all been picked clean, and a persimmon tree, with bright yellow persimmons hanging from its branches, which looks quite festive.

Even the little donkey tied up in the northeast corner was clean and tidy, with no dirty donkey droppings in sight.

The little donkey was scrubbed clean and shiny, and it stared at the stranger with wide, adorable eyes.

Liu Meiling's little girl took a liking to the little donkey as soon as she saw it. She took a few steps forward, wanting to touch the little donkey but not daring to, looking timid.

"Chang Kun, your little courtyard is really nice! It's so tidy, who cleaned it?"

Liu Meiling began to gather information, hoping to find a perfect son-in-law who was not only of good character and great ability, but whose family members could also be of good quality.

Otherwise, it would be terrible if my daughter suffered mistreatment after getting married.

"My mother tidied it all up. She works at the supply and marketing cooperative at the end of the alley and will be back in a little while."

Seeing the little girl staring longingly at the little donkey, Chang Kun took her hand and walked over: "Touch it, Little Fire Bun is very well-behaved, it won't bite or kick people."

This little girl looks a bit older than Xiu'er, and she's just as adorable.

The little girl, Mengmeng, looked at Chang Kun and asked, "Its name is... Little Fire Bun?"

Upon hearing the name, both Liu Meiling and Minister Wang couldn't help but chuckle.

Wang Hongxia burst out laughing: "Little Fire Bun, you really know how to name things! When the little donkey grows up, are you going to make it into a donkey meat bun?"

Chang Kun smiled slightly, a smile that would make anyone who knew the little donkey's name grin foolishly.

He lifted the little girl up and placed her on the back of the donkey, supporting her with one hand, and gave her instructions.

"Little Fire Bun is a good boy, don't move around, you won't fall."

The little girl looked around excitedly, then turned to her mother: "Mom, look at me, look at me!"

Liu Meiling was initially a little worried, but she was relieved to see that the little girl was fine riding the donkey around a few times.

She glared at Wang Hongxia, who was watching the commotion, and said irritably, "Look at other people, they know how to play with their little sister, and all you do is make her cry!"

Wang Hongxia turned her face away, ignoring her mother; this was truly an undeserved disaster.

Is she abandoning her daughter now that she's met a nice young man?

Seeing her eldest daughter ignoring her, Liu Meiling became even angrier and tapped her forehead: "Take out the things you brought. What good are you anyway!"

Wang Hongxia puffed out her cheeks and let out a soft hum.

I'm not going to talk back to my mother today because we're out here. If it were any other time, I'd be furious!

Just as she was taking things out of the bag she had brought with her, a joyful shout came from outside the door.

"Oh dear, I heard we have distinguished guests. I just got back from out of town. I'm so sorry for neglecting them..."

Before she could finish speaking, Liu Meifen walked in from outside and the first thing she saw was Liu Meiling.

They were both stunned!
