Reborn in 1963: I Hunted and Stockpiled Meat During a Famine

Chen Xu was so moved that he shed tears.

Qin Qixiu ran down from the second floor with tears in her eyes: "Brother, don't leave us for so long again."

Xia: "Qiming, you're finally back. My sister has been putting on a brave face every day."

Min was extremely embarrassed when she heard this.

Qin Qiming glanced at Min, indicating that he understood everything.

Only women who receive care and protection from men can be gentle and considerate.

If a man doesn't come home and doesn't take care of his family, his woman can't possibly have a good life.

Shortly after Qin Qiming returned home, he went to wash up.

He lived almost like a wild man in the deep mountains.

The inability to start a fire resulted in harsh living conditions.

Because if a fire is lit, it will attract wild beasts.

When Qin Qiming came out of the shower, he looked completely refreshed.

"Our mom is at my uncle's house. I'll go and call her back."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the courtyard gate.

"Qiming, I am your maternal uncle."

When Qin Qiming returned, the villagers saw him, and the news spread. The village chief, Liu Qingsong, and others all came.

"Enlightenment!"

"Mom, Uncle Tian, ​​Uncle Da, Brother Kang, Brother Hao... you're all here, come in quickly!"

Min was busy pouring hot water and serving a bowl to everyone.

Liu Xiuqin wiped away her tears and choked out, "I really didn't expect that you would stay in the mountains for more than a month this time!"

Qin Qiming chuckled and said, "Mom, you still remember the date? You remember it even better than I do!"

Liu Xiuqin's eyes were brimming with tears: "You silly son, how can you still laugh? Are you alright in those deep mountains and forests?"

"It's okay."

Qin Qiming smiled.

Let's not talk about the time I fell off the mountain and had to take medicine for several days!

The village chief remarked with emotion, "It's good that you're back."

Qin Kang joked, "Qiming, you looked like a wild man just now, but now you've turned back into the familiar you I know!"

Qin Qiming said helplessly, "Brother Qin, please stop teasing me."

……

That night, Qin Qiming couldn't sleep!

In the middle of the night, he planned to sneak into Min's room.

As soon as I stepped out of the room, I bumped into a soft, fluffy little body.

"Huimin? What are you doing standing outside my door?"

Min cleared her throat awkwardly, "I'm going to get some water."

Min took two steps.

"Huimin, the kitchen is over there."

Min blushed with embarrassment!

She just couldn't sleep and wanted to see Qin Qiming, even if she didn't do anything, she just wanted to see him...

She was truly afraid that Qin Qiming coming home today was just a dream.

She wanted to hold him while she slept, to truly feel his body temperature and presence.

Qin Qiming pulled her into his arms: "Come to my room, we haven't really talked today."

Min nestled into Qin Qiming's firm embrace: "Okay."

They embraced on the bed, recounting their worries and concerns, their hearts intertwined, always thinking of each other.

They talked all night, sharing their innermost thoughts.

Of course, there was also a tender farewell kiss, full of lingering affection.

However, at that critical moment, Qin Qiming managed to restrain his impulse.

After all, the next period of potential food shortages is just around the corner.

If a child is born at this time, they will undoubtedly face many difficulties and obstacles.

For a pregnant woman, getting pregnant during famine years was extremely dangerous.

Food shortages, poor diet, and weak constitutions.

In addition, the food was scarce, making it even more difficult for pregnant women.

Qin Qiming's visit was limited to kissing and touching, and then it ended.

The next morning, without stopping, he took on the duties of the guard captain.

As for the village chief, he served as acting team leader for two months. Although he had some extra money during those two months, he was still an elderly man.

My arms and legs are useless. After a day's work, I'm exhausted like an old dog, almost lying on the ground panting.

Fortunately, Qin Qiming returned.

The village chief lit his pipe again and discussed the matter of going into the mountains with Qin Qiming.

Qin Qiming told the village chief about a large patch of taro seedlings deep in the mountains, estimating that there would be a bumper harvest in the fall.

But that place is too remote. If Qin Qiming goes in alone and digs his way out, he can only take care of a few people.

But if we're going to send all the men in the guard team into the mountains, we need to make preparations in advance.

First, I need to teach them how to use a gun, and second, I need to make them practice running.

After all, carrying taro back from deep in the mountains would require at least a hundred kilograms per person.

“Going deep into the mountains to dig up taro and carry it back is no joke. It’s to ensure that our whole village has food to eat during the famine! Everyone must follow orders and not act recklessly.”

The village chief knew that Qin Qiming had gone to great lengths to ensure the well-being of the entire village.

“If these taro were dug up by ourselves in the mountains and distributed to the villagers, then I can report to my superiors and lead a team into the mountains to find food. I guarantee that every single member of the team I take out will come back safely!”

The village chief nodded. "I'll go back and write this report right away, but you need to talk to the guards first and see if anyone is unwilling to go. This has to be voluntary."

"Yes, don't worry, I will go and persuade them and explain the situation clearly."

The village chief put away his pipe and said, "Okay, I'll write the report now."

The village chief rushed home to write a report.

He meticulously recorded Qin Qiming's journey to the deep mountains.

The village chief recorded the details so meticulously because the corn planted in the village has not yet sprouted, and some parts of the land have even cracked.

In addition, the wheat seedlings in the wheat fields began to wither, the ears lacked moisture, and many grains were empty, without plump fruits.

Even though half of the wheat fields were in slightly better condition, there were still many empty husks and few plump grains.

Faced with the threat of famine, we must risk going deep into the mountains, otherwise even the soil will be eaten up!

After submitting a long list of applications and explanations, the village chief rode his bicycle to the county town.

The purpose of this trip was to equip the small team that was about to venture deep into the mountains—Qin Qiming's team—with various tools.

After Qin Qiming returned home, Wang Tiantian came to see him.

"Brother Qiming, when did you get back?"

Qin Qiming glanced at her and thought to himself, "Why is Wang Tiantian looking at me so affectionately?"

"I came back last night."

After saying that, Qin Qiming wanted to leave.

He didn't like chatting with other girls.

Wang Tiantian caught up with him again: "Brother Qiming, when can you take me into the deep mountains to see the scenery?"

Qin Qiming was annoyed, wondering if the girl had taken the wrong medicine.

"There's everything in those deep mountains—snakes, insects, rats, ants. What would a delicate young girl like you do there? Don't you want to live?"

Wang Tiantian was speechless at Qin Qiming's words, her face turning pale and then red.

"I can protect myself!"

"Wang Tiantian, the dangers in the deep mountains are beyond your comprehension."
