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

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Liu Meiling took the initiative to change the subject.

"Xiao Kun, did you come today because you missed your second aunt?"

Today is only the fourth day since the young couple got married. They should have just returned to their parents' home yesterday. Even if they are very close to their second aunt, there is no need for her to come and visit so hastily outside of holidays.

"I'm here today for two reasons: first, to bring Xiaomin to visit my second aunt and uncle; second, there's something I really need to discuss..."

Chang Kun recounted from beginning to end how his mother-in-law and brother-in-law had been separated from their families.

Liu Meiling listened with tears in her eyes, feeling deeply moved. She never expected that Cheng Min had the same experience as her.

He had been separated from his parents until recently, when he reconnected with his older sister and younger brother's family.

Cheng Min was separated from her mother when she was young, and she still doesn't know where her mother and younger brother are, let alone whether they are still alive.

She knew all too well what it meant to endure such agonizing days.

Liu Meiling moved over and sat down next to Cheng Min, holding her hand tightly: "Xiao Min, poor child, if you have any difficulties, just tell your second aunt. If your uncle can help, just ask."

Uncle nodded: "There were so many family members separated back then, we definitely have to do our best. Xiao Kun, do you have any opinions?"

"It's like this, Uncle. Xiaomin and I are planning to go to the south in a few days to try to find my mother-in-law, but it's hard to get a letter of introduction."

In theory, both his and Cheng Min's workplaces could issue letters of introduction, but he was still unsure which southern city his mother-in-law lived in, and didn't know how to write the specific destination on the letter of introduction.

But the letter of introduction that my uncle-in-law got was different. As long as it said that he was going out on official business and was stamped with a big red seal, the local authorities would recognize it no matter where he went.

Uncle nodded, understanding.

"That's easy. You can stay here tonight, and I should be able to get it to you first thing tomorrow morning."

"Ah, Uncle, Xiaomin and I won't stay overnight. We'll play a little longer this afternoon and then head back. We also need to prepare some things in advance."

Liu Meiling held Cheng Min's hand tightly: "There's no rush. I still want to have a good talk with Xiaomin."

Knowing that this girl had experienced the same thing as herself, she felt a lot closer to Cheng Min.

Wang Hongxia also chimed in, "Yes, yes, Cheng Min, you and Chang Kun can sleep here tonight, and Xiao Zixia can sleep with you too. That girl is such a restless sleeper, I really can't stand her."

Liu Meiling glared at her eldest daughter. This girl was really crazy, asking a newlywed couple to help take care of the child? How could she even think of that!

Cheng Min declined, saying, "Second Aunt, Uncle, maybe next time. I really didn't prepare anything today, I need to go home and prepare."

"Yes, yes, we'll talk about it when we come to pick up the letter of introduction tomorrow or the day after," Chang Kun quickly added.

Sleeping here means not only having to take care of Xiao Xiu'er, but also Xiao Zixia?

Should he and Cheng Min continue their intimacy? They're young and full of energy right now, and it would be embarrassing to do *that* while sleeping at someone else's house.

After offering a few more words of advice, and seeing that Chang Kun and Cheng Min were indeed going home to pack, Liu Meiling didn't try to persuade them any further.

"That's perfect. I ordered food from Fengzeyuan Restaurant. It was just delivered and is still in the food box. I'll take it home for my sister and brother-in-law tonight."

Chang Kun didn't refuse any longer. He hadn't tried the dishes at Fengzeyuan yet, so he wanted to see if they lived up to their reputation.

The group ate almost all the dishes on the table, leaving only a few pieces of glutinous rice cake wrapped in bamboo leaves and half a plate of sugar-coated persimmons, which they left for the two little girls to eat when they got back.

The little girls in my family love this dish of sugar-coated persimmons, especially the sauce at the bottom of the plate. The sweet and sour taste is truly unforgettable.

After lunch, we chatted for a bit, and then my uncle rushed back to work.

"Hongxia, go and clear the dishes." Liu Meiling directed her eldest daughter to do the work, while she chatted idly with Cheng Min, holding her hand.

Wang Hongxia looked at this and that. Her younger brother and Cheng Min were guests. It would be too inappropriate to let them cook and then clean up.

As for her mother, she wouldn't dare to give orders.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to find Zixia and Xiuer..."

Liu Meiling slammed her hand on the table: "Hurry up and clean up! I know what you're going to do the moment you turn your butt. You're a grown man, how can you let a little girl do chores for you?"

"Hehe..." Wang Hongxia's little scheme was exposed. She grinned foolishly a few times and obediently got up to tidy up.

Today, my mother arranged a blind date for me, but Aunt Wang, who usually cooks for the family, wasn't invited, so I had to cook for myself.

Besides, I skipped the blind date today, and my mother hasn't even come after me yet, so I'd better not provoke her.

Chang Kun got up, stretched, and went outside into the yard.

Xiao Zixia and Xiu'er were standing with their hands on their hips, talking to Gou Dan'er across from them.

As Chang Kun leaned closer and heard the two girls' voices clearly, he was both amused and exasperated.

"You just don't dare eat a toad!"

"We dare to eat it, but you don't? You're a coward!"

"I don't want to play with cowards!"

Across from him, Gou Dan'er's face flushed red as he repeatedly protested, "Who said I'm afraid to eat! I... I'm just too lazy to eat!"

"Coward, and a liar! My older brother's frog dishes are delicious!"

"Hmph! My older brother is even more amazing!"

"My older brother is amazing! Not only can he cook frogs, he can also eat them! He just ate so many!"

Dog Egg stood with his hands on his hips: "What's so special about this? My older brother... my older brother dares to eat a toad too!"

"Hehehe~~ I don't believe it!"

"Hmph! My older brother not only eats toads, he even dares to eat earthworms. Would your older brother dare to do that?"

Little Xiu'er retorted, "My older brother dares to eat anything, but your older brother wouldn't!"

"My older brother dares to eat... dares to eat dog poop, your older brother definitely wouldn't dare!" Gou Dan'er thought for a long time and came up with a powerful idea, thinking that this would defeat the two little girls.

To everyone's surprise, Xiu'er and Zixia weren't intimidated at all, and shouted even louder: "Who says we don't dare? My eldest brother loves to eat dog..."

Upon hearing this, Chang Kun could no longer hold back and rushed to the two little girls, covering their mouths.

If they keep talking, I, the eldest brother, will become the eldest brother who loves to eat dog poop.

"Let's go, big brother will show you how to fold frogs."

Hearing about folding frogs, Xiao Zixia's eyes lit up. She turned around and stuck out her tongue at Gou Dan'er triumphantly: "Next time I see your older brother, I'll ask him if he likes to eat dog poop!"

The little girl then realized that dog poop was no good, and it was best if her good older brother didn't eat it.

Back inside, Zixia took Changkun's hand and said, "There's colored paper in Big Sister's room. Let's go get some and fold frogs. I want the green one, and Xiuer can get the red one. Let's see which one looks better!"

Upon arriving at Wang Hongxia's room, Xiu'er looked around and then looked up at Chang Kun, saying, "Big brother, why isn't Second Sister's room as nice as yours?"

Indeed, Wang Hongxia's room only had a single bed and a simple table and chairs, far inferior to the room her aunt had prepared for her.

No wonder the second sister was jealous; her second aunt was too good to her!
