Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 477 Family Laughter
In the courtyard at this moment.
The eldest sister, Chang Kun, was happily playing "Eagle Catches Chickens" with a few little girls.
Brother-in-law Yang Lijun excitedly gestured something to his father-in-law Chang Dashan.
Uncle Liu Meilin was drunk before he even drank any. He sat on a stone bench leaning against a persimmon tree, watching the little girls play with a silly grin.
My aunt stood beside me, her eyes filled with tears of happiness.
Upon seeing Chang Kun return, she ran to him in a few steps.
"Xiao Kun, my dear nephew is back!"
My aunt's tone changed with excitement.
Chang Kun understood that his uncle and elder sister already knew that the house in the city had been arranged.
Everyone would be incredibly excited about something like this.
"Xiao Kun, come on, let's have a couple of drinks with your uncle tonight!"
Liu Meilin stood up, swaying slightly.
The villagers are still toiling in the fields for a living, and they can't even get enough to eat every day. He and his wife have already been arranged to work in the city by their nephew.
The family no longer has to suffer from hunger.
And now, my nephew has actually managed to get the housing issue settled in the city!
You should know that even at the grain station where he works, many of his colleagues haven't been allocated housing yet. Eight or nine family members are crammed into a small room of just over ten square meters, with no space to even do anything.
I found jobs for myself and my wife, which solved the major problem of our family's basic needs.
Now that the issue of housing allocation in the city has been resolved, this is another great thing that will benefit future generations.
In the future, when my wife and I get old, our children will have a place to live and will no longer be at risk of being forced to go to the countryside.
All of this is because I have a good nephew.
Seeing that his uncle was so excited he could hardly stand, Chang Kun quickly went forward to help him sit down.
Liu Meilin patted her nephew's arm hard. Between men, some things don't need to be said outright.
Brother-in-law Yang Lijun, being young, didn't think too much about it; he only knew that his brother-in-law had helped him with something important again.
Now I have a job, a house, and a healthy baby boy; my life is almost perfect.
"Little Kun, it's you!"
He grinned sheepishly and gave Chang Kun a thumbs-up.
"Brother-in-law, have a couple of drinks later, and stay at home tonight."
The family members had only exchanged a few words when Grandpa Hong and Grandma Liu entered the courtyard.
"Tell me, Xiao Liu, you're too kind. What are you doing treating us old folks to a meal?"
Aunt Liu walked into the courtyard while being polite.
Grandpa Hong, however, was different. He swung his one arm like he was marching in formation: "Aunt Liu, you're wrong! That kid Chang Kun is really something! Every time I see him go hunting in the mountains, he never comes empty-handed. Let's two old folks help him out with some food!"
"Oh, Uncle Hong, if you wanted something delicious, you should have just said so! I'll bring you some every day from now on..." Chang Kun said with a smile.
"Hey kid, don't try to take advantage of me. I'm not so old that I need a young man like you to support me."
"However, I can still have a couple of bites of your wild game. The way you cook it is much better than what the state-run restaurants serve."
Grandpa Hong often went to Chang Kun's house to listen to the radio. He was also an easygoing person and would often joke with Chang Kun.
"Hahaha, Uncle Hong, my aunt works at a state-run restaurant. You're talking badly about her behind her back, and people have overheard!"
Today's dinner party was a joy not only for my uncle and sister's family, but also for Grandpa Hong and Aunt Liu.
A courtyard house is not just about the living environment, but also about the people who live there.
Being able to live in the same courtyard is an incredible stroke of luck.
Grandpa Hong and Grandma Liu got to know the character and personality of Liu Meilin and Yang Lijun's families, and they were both very satisfied with them.
From now on, their courtyard will no longer be deserted; they will have so much to look forward to.
That night, the whole family drank to their hearts' content. In the end, even Grandpa Hong, the veteran known as the invincible master of divine liquor, got a little drunk.
He slapped his thigh with one hand, keeping time, and sang a loud military song.
"I am a soldier."
"From the people."
"We've defeated those Japanese devils and bandits..."
Everyone echoed in agreement.
The courtyard was filled with laughter for a moment.
Around 8 p.m., Grandpa Hong and Grandma Liu finally said goodbye and went back to their neighbor's house.
Tonight they experienced the long-lost liveliness and were even more excited about the newlyweds moving into the courtyard house.
Now that only her family members remained, Liu Meifen looked at this person and then at that person, her heart filled with joy.
My son is good, my daughter is filial, and my little girls are all beautiful. Life couldn't be better.
Liu Meilin, reeking of alcohol, said, "Xiao Kun, you've arranged all the important matters at home. Now it's time for your wedding, isn't it?"
"Speaking of which, in a few days we'll be going to Xiaomin's house to propose marriage. Our family has been having a lot of good news lately."
Whenever her son's marriage is mentioned, Liu Meifen can't help but smile. This is the most important thing in the family. She thinks about it every day and even discusses the bride price with Wang Cuiqin while at work.
"Big sister, is there anything we can help with for Xiao Kun's wedding?" Liu Meilin asked.
"You'll be indispensable as my maternal uncle. We'll be going to Xiaomin's house to propose marriage in a couple of days. Just come early, and you don't need to worry about anything else."
Since Cheng Min didn't have her mother around, Liu Meifen thought of everything carefully to ensure she wouldn't be wronged.
"Okay, when it's time to pick up the bride, I'll borrow a few more bicycles from my workplace, and we'll go to pick her up in style."
Liu Meilin felt indebted to her nephew for his care and wanted to do her best to help.
"I told you, I don't need you!" Liu Meifen waved her hand dismissively. "Xiao Kun's uncle will take care of arranging the wedding car."
She didn't mention that in order to ensure Chang Kun could have a grand wedding, his ministerial uncle was preparing to arrange six jeeps.
This will be a big surprise for the family.
Back then, for ordinary people getting married, having a bicycle to pick up the bride was already considered a great honor.
If someone could borrow three or five bicycles and tie a big red flower to the handlebars, they would become the talk of the town.
Now that Chang Kun is getting married, his uncle actually said he would help by sending six jeeps.
This is truly one of a kind for scorpion poop!
Liu Meifen had never even heard of him, let alone seen him.
It was truly worth it for her to deliver salt and pepper greyhounds to her second sister and niece late at night.
Except for Liu Meiling's family, who were absent, the whole family rarely gathered together. They chatted in the courtyard until late at night, still feeling quite satisfied.
But the little girls couldn't stay still. Chang Kun covered his younger sisters with blankets and leaned against the door frame to check the system.
[Ding! Squirrel captured 10/10, reward: a jade comb.]
[The current host can sense prey weighing less than 1580 jin (approximately 860 kg) within a range of 4250 meters.]
[Ding! Murderer Guo Jichang 1/1 captured, reward: High Desire - Matters between men and women, the censors don't allow writing about that, but you know...]
[The current host can sense prey weighing less than 1600 jin (approximately 860 kg) within a range of 4300 meters.]
The system rewards have arrived; Guo Jichang is indeed a murderer.
It's unclear whether he has confessed yet. This person has some status, and without solid evidence or a proper reason, he cannot be detained indefinitely.
Hopefully Captain Li will step up his game; otherwise, this case might take an unexpected turn.
