Reborn in the Great Northern Wilderness in 1982, I farmed and hunted to support my whole family.

The person who arrived was a tall, thin man.

He was wearing a Zhongshan suit, his hair was neatly combed, and his thin face had a very upright appearance.

But Li Mu knew that this Zheng Qianfeng was a ruthless man who would devour people without spitting out the bones.

In his previous life, he had seen this person at a slaughterhouse.

Even though there's nothing wrong with the pig, it can still create several problems for you.

Even if you pay enough, they'll still find fault with you from time to time.

When his pig farm ran into problems and he had to take back the pigs, he ended up refusing to buy pigs from his farm for three consecutive years, which forced him to find another way to make smoked meat and sausages.

But the hardships and sacrifices he made caused him a great deal of suffering.

Li Mu's thoughts drifted away, and he was momentarily stunned.

In Zheng Qianfeng's eyes, this clearly meant that Li Mu had never seen such a high-ranking official before and was probably terrified.

Li Mu: No, don't misunderstand.

"They send fifteen rabbits to our hospital every month, and we settle the bill at the end of the year."

Zheng Qianfeng's opening remarks were always a game-changer.

They didn't say how much it cost, and they won't settle the bill until the end of the year.

Li Mu could guarantee that this guy wouldn't settle the bill at the end of the year; in fact, he'd try to scam him out of something.

"Please don't joke with me. I just happened to catch a few rabbits. I couldn't possibly catch fifteen rabbits in a month."

Li Mu waved his hands repeatedly, looking shocked.

He didn't know that Zheng Qianfeng was in charge of the hospital cafeteria. If he had known, he would have preferred to pay more to a small restaurant outside rather than come to the hospital kitchen.

Zheng Qianfeng thought he had been tricked into becoming a sucker, but it turned out to be just a braggart.

He immediately looked at the fat chef who had called him over with a displeased expression, his face as ugly as could be.

The chubby chef never expected Li Mu to be so unimpressive!

We were just agreeing that getting ten or eight rabbits a month wouldn't be a problem, so why is it not possible now?

"Kid, that's not what you said earlier. What, it was as loud as a firecracker, but it was just a fart."

The fat cook also looked unhappy when he saw Li Mu.

He was hoping to use this opportunity to get Zheng Qianfeng to give him a raise.

Well, forget about a raise; I'm afraid he'll be lucky if they don't deduct any money from his pay this month.

Li Mu looked completely innocent, scratching his head foolishly. "I was just trying to get closer to you. What if I catch a rabbit again in the future? I could sell it to you, right?"

That's a perfectly reasonable statement!

It's perfectly normal to want to get closer to someone and brag a little.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Qianfeng pursed his lips and turned to glare fiercely at the fat chef.

"Find me again after you've sorted things out. Do you really think I'm just someone you can mess around with whenever you want?"

As he spoke, Zheng Qianfeng put his hands behind his back, turned around, and left.

The fat cook followed behind him, bowing and scraping like a lapdog, saying, "Yes, yes, yes, please take care."

After everyone had actually left, he turned around with a sullen face and glared fiercely at Li Mu again.

They even started to dislike the pot cooking on Li Mu's small stove.

"Once the food is ready, get out of here. What a waste, all my good intentions were wasted."

The fat cook spoke up angrily.

Standing in front of the cutting board, I pulled out a white radish and chopped it with a "bang, bang" sound.

Li Mu's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything.

With Zheng Qianfeng around, he wouldn't risk cooperating with the hospital cafeteria again.

The risk is too high; who knows when this guy surnamed Zheng might try to scam you?

After stewing the rabbit soup, Li Mu simply took the lunchbox he had brought, filled it with the soup, and carried it into the ward.

The aroma filled the air, attracting the attention of many.

Unexpectedly, when Li Mu passed by the obstetrics and gynecology department, he ran into Liu Mancang and Liu Xiuxiu again, but the two were busy walking to the examination room and did not see him.

Li Mu hurried forward, calling out, "Hot pot, this pot can really scald you to death."

As he called out, Li Mu placed the pot on a bench next to the waiting area where people were waiting to be called.

In the 1980s, benches were all made of wood, so they weren't afraid of getting hot.

Li Mu then used his hands to cool down his hands, pinching his earlobes and leaning against the seat close to the door of the consultation room.

"It's been four months already! Make sure you get plenty of rest and good nutrition." The doctor said calmly, repeating these words countless times a day until they were practically mechanical to her.

"Doctor, is she having a boy?" Liu Mancang asked, his voice full of anticipation.

"It doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl, just go home and take good care of yourself!" the doctor naturally wouldn't say.

Now is the time when family planning is being strictly enforced, so who would dare to take the risk of saying this?

Upon hearing this, Li Mu quickly picked up the casserole, turned around, and hurried away.

When he went upstairs, Liu Mancang happened to be bringing Liu Xiuxiu out.

Li Mu no longer cared what the two were saying.

All he knew was that Liu Xiuxiu was pregnant, and Liu Mancang wanted a son.

If it could be confirmed that Liu Xiuxiu was carrying a boy, Liu Mancang would definitely choose to have this son instead of Tao Yimei, who could only give birth to daughters.

With that thought in mind, Li Muren had already walked back to the ward where Old Lady Gao was staying.

At this moment, the old lady's son on the opposite hospital bed had already left, probably to get food for her.

Li Mu arrived at Grandma Gao's bedside and carefully opened the lunchbox.

A rich aroma wafted over instantly.

Grandma Gao immediately smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into slits, "This soup is really delicious."

"Let it cool down a bit before you drink it. This rabbit meat has little fat and I've skimmed off any excess oil, so it won't be greasy when it's cold."

Li Mu smiled and placed the lunchbox on the square table next to him.

Looking at the thick soup, and then at Li Mu, Old Mrs. Gao couldn't help but think of her deceased eldest son and her youngest son who was serving in the army.

My nose tingled, and my eyes welled up with tears.

Seeing this, Li Mu was about to speak to calm him down when suddenly someone jumped up from behind, grabbed his arm, and yanked him away.

"You old man, you really know how to enjoy life. Your own nephew doesn't even have the money to get married, but you're doing well, staying in the hospital and even drinking meat soup."

The burly man, over six feet tall, spoke like a shrew on the street. Before he finished speaking, he raised his hand and dumped an entire lunchbox of rabbit soup onto Old Lady Gao.

Upon seeing this, Li Mu's eyes immediately turned red with anger. "You bastard, I went through all the trouble of making this soup, and you dare to spill it? I'll kill you!"

As he spoke, Li Mu grabbed a stool next to him and swung it at the tall man.

Unexpectedly, the man turned around and shoved Li Mu, causing him to stumble.

Li Mu truly hated his own frail body; he was so weak and thin that he felt an intense urge to retaliate.

It seems that if we want to teach this person a lesson, we can't just confront him head-on; we need to think of another way.
