Rebirth 1979: Hunting wild boars and saving educated youth

After returning home, as soon as Chen Feng entered the door, his mother Chen Yufen came to greet him. Seeing that he was carrying a heavy bamboo basket full of chicken mushrooms on his back, her face immediately lit up with joy.

"Oh, Feng'er, are you going up the mountain again?" she asked as she took the bamboo basket and looked at the chicken mushrooms carefully, her eyes full of joy.

At the same time, he did not forget to remind her: "The road is slippery when it rains. Look at what you have done. Your clothes are all torn. Don't go up the mountain in bad weather in the future."

"I see," Chen Feng replied with a smile, "Mom, I found this in the mountains. I thought we could eat it and sell it to supplement our family income. Besides, chicken mushrooms can be planted, which is considered an economic crop. Once we plant them well, we won't have to go up the mountain anymore."

Although Chen Yufen did not know the specific value of chicken mushrooms in the market, she knew that her son had a unique vision and the matsutake mushrooms he brought back last time made the family a lot of money.

Therefore, as long as her son thinks it is good, she will naturally trust it.

"Okay, Mom will go and clean it up for you. We'll have this for dinner."

As he was speaking, Chen Feng took out a lunch box from his pocket, opened it and saw that it was filled with dozens of golden gold-rimmed yuan.

Chen Yufen frowned slightly when she saw the bugs and asked in confusion, "Feng'er, why did you catch bugs again? Don't let Ning Yao and Yaya touch them, or they might get bitten."

Hearing this, Chen Feng turned to look at his sister Yaya who was sitting and playing nearby.

I saw Yaya looking at the little bugs curiously, preparing to catch one to play with.

He hurriedly stopped: "Yaya, you can't play with this, brother has a use."

Yaya blinked her big eyes and asked in confusion: "Why? Brother, these little bugs are so cute."

Chen Feng squatted down and patiently explained, "Yaya, these are not ordinary insects. They are called golden-edged yuan, a very precious Chinese medicinal material. Brother wants to raise them and make a lot of money in the future. When I make money, I can buy you beautiful clothes and toys. Be good and don't touch them, okay?"

When Yaya heard about the beautiful clothes and toys, she was immediately delighted and agreed obediently.

Chen Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to his mother, explaining in detail the origin and value of the Phnom Penh Dollar.

"Mom, these golden dollars are really valuable, and they can be raised. Look, as long as you raise them according to the method I told you, they will grow in number, and then our family will have an extra income."

Then, he carefully explained the breeding techniques of Phnom Penh Dollar, including how to feed it and how to maintain the environmental humidity.

Chen Yufen's eyes lit up as she listened. She hadn't expected this tiny insect to be so useful. She immediately decided to follow her son's instructions and take good care of the gold-edged yuan.

After arranging the Phnom Penh Yuan, Chen Feng began to deal with the chicken mushroom.

He chose a piece of fertile land, carefully buried the chicken mushroom seeds in it, covered it with a thin layer of soil, and watered it.

After doing all this, he patted the dirt off his hands with satisfaction.

After finishing the work at hand, Chen Feng looked at the time and estimated that it was time to pick up Ning Yao.

Although the rain had stopped, the ground was still slippery and covered in mud and water. He was really worried about letting Ning Yao walk back alone.

Thinking of this, he put on the old coat again and stepped out of the door.

On the other side, Ning Yao walked out of the school gate, feeling very nervous, as if there was a little rabbit in his heart.

While nodding and smiling at the students and teachers she met, she couldn't help glancing towards the school gate. She was feeling conflicted. She was looking forward to Chen Feng's arrival, but she was also afraid that her colleagues would see her and think she was too pampered as a volunteer teacher.

Ning Yao was so distracted along the way that he almost didn't notice the puddle under his feet.

As I was approaching the school gate, the anticipation in my heart became stronger and stronger, but when I walked out of the school gate and looked around, I still didn’t see that familiar figure.

She couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. Just as she was about to leave, a man suddenly jumped out from behind a big tree nearby. It was Chen Feng.

Ning Yao was so frightened that she took a small step back. Then she started laughing again. She reached out and patted Chen Feng's arm gently, scolding him, "Why are you still acting like a child? You're scaring me on purpose!"

Chen Feng grimaced in pain when she slapped him.

Ning Yao noticed something was wrong and asked quickly, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Chen Feng waved his hand and said, "It's okay, let's go and talk about it when we get home."

Ning Yao refused to give in and insisted on getting to the bottom of it. She gently lifted Chen Feng's sleeve and saw the large scratch at a glance.

She frowned, her tone blaming: "How did you do this?"

Chen Feng chuckled and said casually, "I just went up the mountain for a walk and gained a lot."

Ning Yao was furious when he heard this. He said with a stern face, "If you disregard your own safety like this again, I will really ignore you. Remember?"

She was also convinced that Chen Feng was really brave.

He fought with a blind bear, then beat a tiger, and now he is going up the mountain alone despite the rain and the slippery road. In this kind of weather, if something happens on the mountain, he won’t be able to find anyone!

This bad habit cannot be tolerated!

Chen Feng knew that Ning Yao cared about him, so he nodded quickly and promised repeatedly: "I know, I know, I will pay attention next time." His attitude was very correct.

The two chatted as they walked, and the atmosphere gradually relaxed.

However, as he walked, Chen Feng suddenly felt something was wrong.

He noticed that since they left school, there seemed to be two small figures following them.

The two children did not walk as confidently as other children returning home. Instead, they seemed a little sneaky and whispered to each other from time to time.

Whenever he looked back, the two little guys were like rabbits, either hiding behind a tree or running away quickly, pretending to kick stones on the side of the road.

At first, Chen Feng thought they were just two naughty kids playing around and didn't think much of it.

But the further he walked, the more he felt something was wrong.

Could it be that these two kids are here for Ning Yao?

Could it be a student in Ning Yao’s class?

Do you have questions you want to ask the teacher, but you are too embarrassed to go up to him/her because you are standing by?

He thought it was very possible.

Thinking of this, Chen Feng quietly winked at Ning Yao and said in a low voice, "Look at the two kids behind us. Aren't they your students? They've been following us since you left school until now."

Ning Yao was shocked when she heard this, and thought that the students in her class would not be too close to her when they saw her walking with a man.

She was about to turn back.

Suddenly, a man jumped out from the side of the road, pointed at Ning Yao and shouted loudly: "Wife, this is my wife!"
