Reborn in the 1970s, Zhang Sanniu's new life

The next morning, Liu Hao woke up and called to San Niu, "Baby, baby, it's time to get up!"

San Niu opened her eyes and said, "Okay!"

"Baby, let me carry you to brush your teeth and wash your face," Liu Hao said, carrying San Niu directly to the bathroom!

In the bathroom, Liu Hao helped San Niu sit down on a chair, squeezed out the toothpaste for her, and told her to brush her teeth!

Then he started brushing his teeth. After they finished brushing their teeth, Liu Hao washed San Niu's face. After they finished washing their faces, he applied makeup to San Niu and did everything for her. Liu Hao put on San Niu's shoes and then took her hand to the dining room to eat!

"Baby, come on, drink your milk," Liu Hao said!

"Okay, I want steamed eggs," San Niu said while drinking her milk!

"Okay, I'll get it for you. You can eat half a steamed bun too," Liu Hao said, scooping half a bowl of steamed egg into a bowl for San Niu.

"Okay! Dad, do you sell mutton now? I want to eat stewed lamb chops," San Niu said!

“It’s hot now, and there’s no lamb for sale at the market. I’ll drive to the village after I eat, buy a sheep, and slaughter it for you. If we can’t finish it, we can put it in the refrigerator. Whenever you want to eat it, I’ll cook it for you,” Zhang Laosan said.

“Okay, then buy some more old hens and old ducks to make soup,” San Niu said.

“Okay, I understand,” Zhang Laosan said.

"Dad, is one refrigerator enough? If not, go and get another one," San Niu said.

“It’s not enough. Each sheep weighs dozens of pounds of meat. If we put in the mutton, we won’t be able to put in anything else,” Zhang Laosan said.

"Uncle, don't worry about it. I'll bring one over when I deliver it later," Liu Hao said.

"That's great, I won't worry about it anymore. I've finished eating, I'm going to buy some things." Zhang Laosan took the car keys and went out!

"Honey, eat more, have a tea egg too, I'm leaving now," Liu Hao said and left.

Xiao Jun's wife said, "San Niu! Mr. Liu is so good to you!"

"Yes, it's quite nice, Auntie. Eat more, and after you finish eating, help me wash the sheets and clothes," San Niu said.

"Okay, I'll go after I finish this bun. It's so nice to have you cook for me. Your food is so good!" Xiao Jun's wife said as she ate.

"Yes, because I'm weak, I need to eat more good food to keep my health up. Auntie, you can't tell anyone what we eat or what we cook. I don't like it when other people know about my family." San Niu looked at Xiao Jun's wife and said.

"I won't tell, I won't tell, don't worry! I'm very tight-lipped. Your Uncle Jun and Grandpa Village Chief both told me to listen to you, work more, and talk less. That's what I'm saying, Jun's wife!"

"Okay, that's good. Your uncle is a smart man. You should listen to him more often in the future, and you won't go wrong," San Niu said!

"Okay, I understand. I've finished eating. Now, I'll go put your clothes, sheets, and everything else in the washing machine to wash, Xiaojun's wife said!"

"I'll take you there. Wang Cuihua will lead the way. Xiao Jun's wife, let's go to San Niu's room!"

San Niu slowly ate the tea eggs and then poured herself a bowl of milk, eating and drinking as she went. After finishing her meal, San Niu went back to her room and made a note of the dried fish and dried shrimp that the others had taken.

After finishing her accounting, San Niu went to bed!

Now, San Niu takes a nap in the morning and a nap in the afternoon, each nap lasting an hour or so!

San Niu slept for more than an hour. When she woke up, she lay on the bench in the living room, eating dried mango and reading a book.

Soon, it was noon, and Liu Hao, Wang Jun, and Huang Xuan came in, each carrying a bag of money!

"Honey, all the goods have been delivered and the payment has been settled. Count them again," Liu Hao said.

"Alright, you've all worked hard. Have some herbal tea, sit down and rest for a bit. I'll start counting the money now!"

Liu Hao and San Niu started counting the money together. It took them quite a while to count all the money!

After counting the money, the two of them put it into a bag, and Liu Hao carried it into the bedroom!

"You can have lunch here. After lunch, I'll settle the accounts for the seafood business, and we'll split the money," San Niu said.

"Okay, I'll go tell Auntie to cook more food," Huang Xuan said, heading straight to the kitchen!

"How was today's delivery?" San Niu asked.

"Everything went smoothly, nothing happened. The leader even said that he was planning to buy another batch of goods to send to the cadres in the cities below, but he doesn't have the money right now, so he can only wait until later to buy them," Wang Jun said.

"Oh, no money? Why? What's the reason?" San Niu asked.

"I don't know, they didn't say," Wang Jun said.

"I don't know, never mind," San Niu said.

"Sweetie, let's go eat!" Liu Hao said, taking San Niu's hand and walking out.

When we arrived at the dining room, the food had just been served when someone said, "My dear daughter, sit down and eat. I've stewed mutton today!"

"Wow, so much delicious food! Uncle, you can still buy lamb now, you're amazing!" Huang Xuan exclaimed.

“I went to the village specifically to buy a live sheep. There’s no mutton for sale at the market now. San Niu loves stewed mutton, so I went out of my way to buy it,” Zhang Laosan said.

"Oh, no wonder! San Niu needs to eat more, she's gotten so thin," Wang Jun said.

"Everyone, stop talking and sit down to eat! San Niu is starving," Liu Hao said.

“Yes, San Niu, hurry up and eat, don’t worry about us. Sigh, San Niu, how come you don’t gain weight no matter how much you eat? Look at me, I’m getting fatter and fatter!” Huang Xuan said.

“San Niu has been weak since childhood, while you’ve always been as strong as an ox. How can San Niu compare to you?” Liu Hao said.

“Yes, you’ve always had a big appetite since you were little. You’ve eaten your whole family out of house and home,” Wang Jun said.

“That’s true, I’ve loved eating meat since I was a child,” Huang Xuan said.

"Baby, eat up, finish this bowl of lamb chops!" Liu Hao served San Niu a bowl of lamb chops!

“Okay, I love lamb chops the most,” San Niu said as she ate!

"Oh my! This mutton is so delicious! Uncle, which village did you buy the sheep from? I'll go buy one too, and slaughter it for my dad and mom!" Huang Xuan said as he ate.

“You can’t find it? If you want to buy it, I’ll take you there. That house is in a really remote area,” Zhang Laosan said.

"Okay, let's go after we eat. After we buy it, we'll need your help to kill it," Huang Xuan said.

“Okay, I’ll kill it for you. I’m the fastest at killing sheep, it’ll be done in no time,” Zhang Laosan said!

“Then I’ll go with you. I’ll buy two more to give to San Niu as a thank you. San Niu has helped us make money,” Wang Jun said.

“Yes, we’ll each give one sheep to San Niu to eat. Thank you, San Niu, for taking care of me and Junzi,” Huang Xuan said.

“Alright, then I won’t stand on ceremony and will accept it,” San Niu said!

"That's perfect! We love San Niu's personality—straightforward and generous," Wang Jun said!

"It's better now. Our refrigerator has been delivered, and it will be distributed this afternoon. Now that we have a refrigerator at home, we'll have a place to store the lamb when we take it back," Huang Xuan said.

"Yes, we can buy more meat and other things to take back with us in the future," Wang Jun said.

"Baby, have a bowl of fish soup. Liu Hao is giving the fish soup to San Niu!"

“Okay, I don’t eat rice, you eat it!” San Niu said.

"Okay, I'll eat it. You eat more meat," Liu Hao said!

"My dear girl, you haven't eaten rice for two days, is that alright? How about you eat a couple of bites?" Zhang Laosan said.

"Uncle, it's alright. San Niu doesn't eat much. Let her eat more meat. If she doesn't want rice, then she doesn't need to eat. Tonight, I'll cook her some chicken noodle soup, that'll be fine," Liu Hao said.

"Oh, alright, Xiaojun's wife, wait a minute, kill an old hen, stew it, and cook noodles for Sanniu tonight. Add plenty of ginger and pepper," Zhang Laosan said.

"Okay, I understand," said Xiaojun's wife.

After finishing their meal, Zhang Laosan took Wang Jun and Huang Xuan to buy sheep!

San Niu and Liu Hao returned to their room. San Niu said, "Brother Hao, let me settle the accounts for our seafood so we can split the money later!"

"Okay, you do the math! I'll tidy up the wardrobe so I can put the money in the secret room later," Liu Hao whispered.

San Niu started calculating the accounts. After she finished, she said, "Brother Hao, I've finished calculating the accounts. Take a look and count out the money for Wang Jun and Huang Xuan separately so we can divide the money among them later. Keep five thousand of the remaining money and put the rest in the secret room!"

"Okay, I'll take care of it, baby, you go to sleep!" Liu Hao said.

San Niu went to sleep. Liu Hao started counting the money, then put the rest in the secret room and packed it all into a large box. After tidying up the money, Liu Hao also tidied up the cabinet. Once everything was done, Liu Hao changed into his pajamas and went out to see Wang Jun and Huang Xuan come in. He said, "This is the account for the seafood business. Take a look, and I'll bring the money!"

Liu Hao went into the bedroom, took out two bags, and said, "The account is correct, isn't it!"

“That’s right,” Huang Xuan said!

“That’s good. Here’s your money. Count it. San Niu said that now that we have money, we’ll buy a few more machines. With more machines, we can have our machine factory handle all the parts and components, and we can earn more money,” Liu Hao said.

"Let's buy it. I'll put up 200,000, and you can each put up 100,000. Is that okay, Huang Xuan?"

"Okay, that way you can pay off your debts," Liu Hao said!

“Yes, that’s what I’m thinking. You don’t need to take the money back. I won’t take the 400,000 yuan back either. Let’s just use it to buy the machine! Consider it repayment to you,” Huang Xuan said.

"Okay, you guys go and wire the money to Germany this afternoon! I'll call Germany now, Liu Hao said!"

“Okay, give us the address,” Wang Jun said.

"I'm writing this down for you now. Liu Hao, write down the address. Huang Xuan and Wang Jun, hurry up and wire the money!"

Liu Hao made a phone call, went to bed, and held San Niu in his arms until she fell asleep!

After Liu Hao woke up, he grabbed a few boxes of health supplements, dried fish, and dried shrimp, and drove home!

After waking up and taking a bath, San Niu sat on the bench and read a book!

Liu Hao arrived home around 4:00 or 5:00. He carried his things home, put them on the table, and then sat on the sofa to watch TV and cook. Liu Hao poured himself a cup of tea and said, "Have some tea, I'll go make a few more of your favorite dishes!"

"No need, Aunt Zhu, don't cook for me. I'll be leaving soon. Oh, by the way, I brought a lot of dried fish and dried shrimp. You can cook some for everyone tonight," Liu Hao said.

"Okay, I'll do it now. You're so filial. Every time you come back, bring your parents tonics and food." Aunt Zhu said, "Go look at the things on the table!"

After a while, Liu Hao's parents came home from get off work!

"Oh my! Hao'er's back! When did you get back from Shanghai?" Liu Hao's mother said happily!

"Dad, Mom, I've been back for a few days. I helped out these past few days, and I only came back to see you today. Oh, by the way, I brought some dried fish and dried shrimp from Shanghai. I also bought you a few boxes of health supplements. Remember to take them," Liu Hao said!

"Okay, let me see. Oh my! These fish and shrimp are really good. I have to put them away. Your brother and his family will be here soon, otherwise your sister-in-law will take them all." Liu Hao's mother said, locking everything in the cabinet.

Liu Hao's mom had just finished packing her things when Liu Hao's older brother, Liu Yi, arrived with his wife and children!

"Hao'er, you're back from the sea!" Liu Yi said.

"Brother, sister-in-law, I've been back for two days. Please have a seat! I have an appointment to discuss some business tonight!" Liu Hao said, standing up to leave.
