After dinner.

Chang Dashan and Liu Meifen packed up the other people's things.

Each family received a jar of ginseng wine, two watermelons, and everyone raved about the roe deer meat dumplings, which were then shared among several families.

Finally, we couldn't finish the grilled lamb kidneys, so we each took two skewers home to heat up and enjoy.

As he was leaving, Chang Dashan grabbed Liu Meilin, handed him a jar of tiger penis wine, and whispered something in his ear.

My uncle's family only had one child, Xiaoshui, because they were too poor to raise any more children.

Now that the whole family has moved to the city to work, they have no worries about food and clothing, making it a good time to expand the family's population.

This jar of tiger penis wine is a truly fitting gift.

My uncle couldn't stop smiling as he whispered something in my aunt's ear.

His aunt punched him hard in the chest and spat at him.

So many younger people are here, saying such inappropriate things, they have no shame at all!

Auntie and Zixia didn't stay overnight tonight. When Hongxia left, her eyes were red, and she kicked her legs and threw a tantrum.

I finally have a few close girlfriends, and now my mom is calling me home. I'm definitely not happy about it.

"Alright, we'll invite Xiuer and the others to come over to our house again in a couple of days." Uncle patted Zixia's head and took her little hand as they walked outside.

"Alright then... Xiuer, you have to miss me!"

After seeing off the two families, Chang Kun's family returned to the courtyard to relax.

"Sigh, everyone's gone home, and I feel so empty inside."

"My aunt said she'd invite us to her house in a few days, so now that we're all reunited, we should visit each other more often."

"That's true, my son always speaks so pleasingly... It's a pity your maternal grandparents are no longer here, otherwise they would be so happy to see this scene."

"Then when we get together again in a few days, our whole family will go and visit those two elderly people."

Liu Meifen slapped her thigh: "Yes, yes, this is the important thing. We need to talk to them about our reunion and make them happy too."

"Get up and pack your things. Tomorrow I'll go to your second aunt's house and talk to her to see what we need to prepare."

This is the first time in many years that Liu Meiling has paid respects to her parents, so she definitely needs to make some plans.

Chang Dashan, slightly tipsy, was resting in his chair when Liu Meifen forcibly pulled him up to clear the dishes.

"Xiao Qing, all of you come over here and help pack!"

Now that his son has become quite capable, Liu Meifen nags him every time he gives him instructions.

Now he's become smarter and directly commands his daughters.

If they don't train now, are they supposed to go to their husband's family and not know how to do anything?

Nowadays, women are expected to manage the household and raise children. If a woman doesn't know how to do anything after getting married, she will be criticized to death.

The fairy maidens of later generations are different; many of them only care about their own beauty and have no sense of responsibility towards their families.

Xiao Qing and the others are usually playful, but they still listen to their father.

With so many people in the family, the dishes were cleared away quickly.

The little girls played and made a ruckus all night, and were so tired that their eyelids were drooping.

Chang Dashan was quite drunk, and Liu Meifen had also been busy all day. Soon, the courtyard quieted down.

Chang Kun returned to his room and casually opened the system to check.

[Ding! Thief captured 1/1, reward: Stolen Goods Identification - instantly identify whether an item belongs to the thief.]

[The current host can sense prey weighing less than 1500 jin (approximately 860 kg) within a range of 4050 meters.]

[Ding! Spy captured 1/1, reward: Intelligence Identification - can identify the authenticity of intelligence.]

[The current host can sense prey weighing less than 1520 jin (approximately 860 kg) within a range of 4100 meters.]

Chang Kun pondered for a moment.

These two skills can be quite useful in certain situations; for example, they might come in handy when catching a thief at Qianmen Railway Station.

The next morning, as soon as Chang Kun got up, he saw Xiu'er standing in the courtyard, still half asleep.

"Xiuer, why are you up so early?"

"Big brother, Mother said she's taking me to Zixia's house!"

"Then what are you still standing here for? Go wash your face, put on your headband, tie your braids, and go to your aunt's house looking pretty."

"Yawn... I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep a little longer before I go."

Liu Meifen came out of the kitchen, glared at Xiuer, and said, "Go or don't go, it's easier for me if you don't!"

"If it weren't for seeing you all alone at home, looking so pitiful, I wouldn't bother with you!"

Chang Kun held the little girl on his arm: "Mom, this is too early. What are we going to Auntie's house for?"

"Last night we were supposed to invite a family to visit our parents' graves. I thought about it for half the night, and I need to get this done as soon as possible."

Chang Kun was speechless. His mother was just that impulsive and quick-tempered; she wanted to get things done as soon as possible.

"Then what time can't we go today? It has to be so early in the morning..." Little Xiu'er nodded her head little by little, almost falling asleep in her arms again.

Liu Meifen curled her lip: "Do you think I'm like you, always trying to make a name for myself and taking leave whenever I want?"

Chang Kun understood. His mother had already taken the day off yesterday to spend with his second aunt, so it wouldn't be good to take the day off again today.

"Mom, the supply and marketing cooperative can't function without you; you're a great contributor!"

Sensing the sarcasm in her son's tone, Liu Meifen glared at him.

"Go quickly and help Xiuer wash her face. I'm leaving now. If you want to sleep, you can sleep at home."

Upon hearing that her mother was about to leave, Xiu'er immediately jumped out of her older brother's arms: "Mom, I'm not sleepy anymore, I want to go to Zixia's house!"

Liu Meifen snorted, "You think I can't handle you?"

Chang Kun helped Xiu'er wash her face and comb her hair, and secretly stuffed two handfuls of QQ candies and jelly into her little pocket, enough for the two girls to enjoy for a while.

Chang Kun ate some leftover dumplings from last night for breakfast and then rode his bike to work.

"Chang Kun is here; I heard he's done another good deed!"

"Wow! Welcome, our great hero!"

Inside the police compound, Aunt Song and Xiao Wang surrounded Chang Kun, chatting away.

Chang Kun asked in surprise, "Aunt Song, Sister Wang, what's going on? What are you talking about?"

"What did you say? Didn't you go to participate in some big operation yesterday? They even hung up on you with the section chief."

"That's right. I heard that Director Huang praised you a lot, saying that without you, the Japanese spies wouldn't have been caught."

"Hey, Chang Kun, isn't that Japanese spy with a little mustache and who's ugly as hell?"

The two of them asked questions like curious children.

They had all witnessed Chang Kun's meritorious service in his own unit, but they never expected him to excel in such a major operation outside of his unit.

This really brings honor to their workplace.

Upon hearing the news after get off work, the section chief's smile never faded.

After all, Chang Kun was one of his own men, so Director Huang praised him highly, saying that he was a good leader and dared to fight.

"Oh, Aunt Song and Sister Wang, it's all thanks to everyone. I only helped a little bit."

"Alright, stop being modest. Everyone knows you're capable."

"Go to the section chief's office. He told me to wait here and let him know. He said he has something to tell you," Xiao Wang said. "You've become a very busy person now. Everyone in the system knows you exist."

Chang Kun was taken aback. Had another reward been issued for yesterday's operation?

That doesn't make sense either. The operation ended in the afternoon yesterday, almost time to leave work. Even if there was a reward, it wouldn't be that soon.

Could it be related to the theft at the Qianmen Railway Station Police Station?

If that's the case, my uncle really acted quickly.

With that thought in mind, he quickened his pace and headed toward the section chief's office.

The sooner we can get rid of those thieves, the fewer people will suffer.

This is much more important than any reward!
