The hunter's leisurely life begins with marrying a female educated youth.

"Yan Hong, aren't you finished getting ready yet?"

"Let's go, to Pailin Village."

In the courtyard of Zhang Yun's house, Zhang Zhongli and Chen Wan stood in front of the wooden house, calling out to urge him on.

We agreed last night that we would visit Xiao Qingguo's home today.

After delivering the goods to Jiming Mountain in the morning, the family immediately rode their bicycles back to their house. Zhang Yanhong went into her wooden house first and then dressed up inside.

No matter how Zhang Yanhong dressed up, she felt she wasn't pretty enough when meeting her mother-in-law, and she was quite anxious, so she didn't come out.

"I'm coming."

Finally, urged by her parents, Zhang Yanhong reluctantly opened the wooden door and came out.

"Ah... go wash up quickly, what kind of mess are you making of yourself?"

Suddenly, Chen Wan called out in complaint.

"Daughter, just wear your usual clothes."

Zhang Zhongli also shook his head.

It turned out that Zhang Yanhong was dressed rather flamboyantly in the room, with blush covering almost half of her face, making her look more like a seductive young woman than a 19-year-old girl.

It just felt really weird.

Upon hearing her parents' words, Zhang Yanhong jumped up in a panic and rushed to the bathroom, where she saw herself in the mirror.

"It really looks like a ghost..."

Zhang Yanhong gave herself a sullen review, then hurriedly washed her face, removing all the face cream and blush.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Yanhong ran back to her room, changed into a black and red plaid polyester long shirt, simply tied her hair up, and then left the room.

"Yes, that's more like it. That's what a young woman should look like."

Chen Wan said with satisfaction.

"Alright, the road to Pailin Village is difficult to travel. Let's all get on our bicycles and hurry over there."

Seeing that his daughter had returned to her usual attire, Zhang Zhongli urged her to hurry up.

The three of them each got on a bicycle. Zhang Zhongli's bicycle had a red jackal on the back seat, while Zhang Yanhong's bicycle had some canned goods, pastries, and candies in the front basket. The three of them headed towards Pailin Village.

Pailin Village is also one of the ten villages in Qushui Commune. It is located in the north of the commune, bordering Baizhou Village to the west, Jiming Mountain to the south, and Baozhai Village to the east.

This village is entirely surrounded by mountains and forests. Although the terrain is not as steep as Jiming Mountain, the fact that it is all mountainous means that the villagers' houses cannot be built in a concentrated manner. Basically, there are two or three households on each hilltop, and the fields are reclaimed from the valleys.

It can be said that transportation to Pailin Village is very inconvenient; one can only walk along the narrow mountain paths, winding around and around.

This Pailin Village is the poorest village in Qushui Commune.

Fortunately, all three of them were riding bicycles. Although it was a mountain path, they still managed to cross more than a dozen mountains and enter the territory of Pailin Village.

"Uncle, Aunt, Yan Hong, over here."

Xiao Qingguo was very thoughtful; he stood on a hilltop early on, waiting for the three of them to arrive.

When he saw the three figures appear, Xiao Qingguo waved and shouted loudly.

"Xiao is still quite clever."

Zhang Zhongli saw where Xiao Qingguo was based on the sound and couldn't help but laugh.

So, the three bicycles quickly arrived at the hill where Xiao Qingguo was.

Xiao Qingguo's home was built at the foot of this mountain.

"Mom, Uncle, Aunt, and Yan Hong are here."

At this moment, Xiao Qingguo shouted again towards the foot of the mountain, reminding his family to prepare to welcome their in-laws.

Zhang Zhongli, Chen Wan, and Zhang Yanhong also got off their bicycles and pushed them towards Xiao Qingguo's house.

It was a row of very simple houses. The ground was made of stones, and the houses were built of wood. Over the years, the wood had become very old and was almost rotten and about to collapse due to insect bites.

There were five wooden houses in total, all in a completely dilapidated state. At first glance, they looked like they could be blown over by a strong wind at any moment.

At this moment, a large family stood on the open space in front of the house, adults and children alike staring eagerly at the arrival of Zhang Zhongli and his two companions.

When the family saw the three of them pushing bicycles, they exclaimed in surprise.

"Mother, the girl that the second son found is really good-looking; she even brought three bicycles with her."

A man who looked very strong said enviously.

Looking at the man's facial features, he vaguely resembles Xiao Qingguo; he is Xiao Qingguo's elder brother, Xiao Qinghua.

“Honey, if we had a bicycle, it would be the first bicycle in our Pailin Village. We’d be so proud of ourselves in the village.”

A woman standing next to Xiao Qinghua wore clothes covered in patches, and her eyes revealed a greedy look.

After all, in this day and age, a bicycle is a symbol of status, and who wouldn't be envious?

"The girl the second son knows comes from a very well-off family."

"He truly lives up to his reputation as my son. At such a young age, he has become the captain of the militia company. This woman from a wealthy family must have taken a liking to my second son's future, which is why she took the initiative to get to know him."

The woman in her fifties standing in front of Xiao Qinghua was overjoyed, her triangular eyes gleaming with delight.

This woman is Yang Lijuan, Xiao Qingguo's mother.

Last night, Xiao Qingguo brought back a pheasant and a civet cat, and then told his family that his in-laws would be coming tomorrow. Yang Lijuan was excited all night.

At that moment, Yang Lijuan realized that the girl Xiao Qingguo knew must come from a very wealthy family, otherwise how could she have given such an extravagant gift?

Now, seeing Zhang Zhongli and the other two pushing their bicycles over, Yang Lijuan became even more certain that this family was either rich or powerful.

In Yang Lijuan's heart, she firmly believed that it was because Xiao Qingguo had become the captain of the militia company and had a bright future, so Zhang Yanhong wanted to get close to Xiao Qingguo.

This is all because her son is outstanding; Zhang Yanhong is practically giving herself away.

Before long, Zhang Zhongli, Chen Wan, and Zhang Yanhong arrived at the dam area pushing their bicycles.

At this moment, Xiao Qinghua's three children gathered around, and without saying hello, they went straight to the front of Zhang Yanhong's bicycle. They all saw the canned fruit in the front basket.

"Wow, canned food, it's mine."

The boy who looked the oldest pushed open the lid of the front basket and snatched two cans of fruit without saying a word.

"I also want."

The other two boys, both around five or six years old, also tried to grab the pastries and candies from the front basket.

"Dalong, Feihu, Qingniu, quickly put the gifts back."

Xiao Qingguo hadn't expected this to happen, and he quickly spoke up to stop it.

But the three children completely ignored Xiao Qingguo, grabbed the things and ran into the house. Then, excited sounds came from inside the house; they were already eating canned pastries and candies.

Zhang Zhongli, Chen Wan, and Zhang Yanhong's faces stiffened for a moment, their expressions displeased.
