Reborn at 60: I Helped My Sister Get Rich Starting from Hunting

Zhang Yang understood immediately.

Zhao Dong was also craving the meat soup.

Knowing he couldn't hide it any longer, Zhao Dong simply admitted, "Yangzi! Don't be angry with me! I divided my share of wild boar meat into two pieces. I gave the big one to my aunt and the small one to Sister Cuilan's family... I'll just have a bowl of soup! The meat is all for my sisters!"

Zhang Yang felt sorry for his honesty. "Why didn't you just take it home and cook it yourself? Why did you leave it at my house? Mom, give his meat back to him. That portion is his; we still have some, we don't need it!"

"Yangzi! I'm not married yet, can you stop talking about your family and mine? Once I've really found a wife, I'll definitely go back to live there myself! It's not like anyone wants to squeeze into the woodshed with you..." Zhao Dong said, sounding aggrieved.

Li Huifang pulled Zhao Dong over, "We're all family, no distinction between you, me, and him! Auntie cut the meat into small pieces, picked out the fatty parts, and stir-fried them in a pot. It smells delicious! You can't just drink the soup; the young man still has to go hunting in the mountains, so you need to eat more!"

After talking about Zhao Dong, Li Huifang urged Zhang Yang to hurry up.

"Don't just stand there like an idiot at the door, come inside. You haven't slept all night, you must be exhausted!"

Zhang Yang opened the half-open door a little, gesturing for Lin Qiushui to come in first, "You're lucky, you get meat as soon as you arrive, come in."

Lin Qiushui hesitated for a moment, "How about I don't go in? Could you please run an errand and get the grass seeds? I'll take the seeds and leave."

These days, meat is so expensive!

Lin Qiushui knew how difficult it was for the villagers to get a bite of meat.

Although she also wanted to get some of the soup, she still knew the proper etiquette and manners.

On her first visit, she not only didn't bring any gifts for the host, but she also tried to freeload.

What does it look like?

"I'll be waiting for you at the door!"

After saying that, Lin Qiushui took two steps back.

"Just come in when I tell you to! Do you think my family is short of meat?"

Zhang Yang even joked with Li Huifang, who was standing under the eaves looking out.

"Didn't you hear what my mom just said? She's even using fatty meat to scrub the bottom of the pot and as a seasoning for stir-frying meat. Life is definitely getting better now!"

Li Huifang was a little embarrassed, but with guests present, she ignored her son and went to the door to invite Lin Qiushui.

"Little girl, come in. There's not much family here, so don't be afraid."

Lin Qiushui politely addressed her as "Auntie," but didn't move, explaining her purpose for coming.

"Auntie, last night the people in our educated youth team caught a wild rabbit, but it's too small to eat grass directly. We'll probably need some grass seeds to feed it..."

"I happened to hear Zhang Yang mention you. He said he had some stored tender grass seeds, so I thought I'd borrow some from you to help raise this rabbit!"

"When the weather gets a bit warmer, I'll go to the mountains to dig up some tender bamboo shoots to repay you!"

Li Huifang looked at her lovingly, "Raising rabbits? Do you know how? Although those tender grass seeds are suitable for feeding rabbits, I dried them slightly before to preserve them better. You can't feed them directly after you take them home; you have to soak them in water first."

When it comes to the details of farm work, Li Huifang has a lot to say.

Zhang Yang came out and pushed the two of them into the courtyard.

"It's so windy outside, aren't you cold? Can't we come inside and talk things out?"

This time, he didn't give Lin Qiushui a chance to refuse.

Li Huifang clearly liked the girl, so she took her hand and pulled her into the house.

Zhang Yang then pulled Zhao Dong into the woodshed, saying, "Help us serve the soup!"

Zhao Dong was very enthusiastic, busy with his work while grinning mischievously, "Yangzi! I've figured it out! Between the two of us brothers, I'll definitely be the first to get a wife!"

Zhang Yangqing lit the firewood in the house but did not respond.

Zhao Dong started daydreaming again, lost in his own thoughts.

“This female educated youth is pretty! I’ve seen her before! But Du Shujun always said that she had a strange personality, was not cooperative, and was arrogant for some reason… I believed her at the time and really thought that this girl was difficult to get along with.”

Zhao Dong peeked into the next room, asking, "What's her name? I think she's the kind of girl who gets prettier the more you look at her... she looks more and more like my future sister-in-law!"

"Can't you put a doorknob in your mouth?"

Zhang Yang picked up a piece of firewood and threw it at him. "That girl is innocent and virtuous. She only met me on the first day, and she's already going to be my wife? What's the difference between her and all those bandits who blocked my way before?"

"There's a difference! A huge difference!" Zhao Dong immediately puffed out his chest and sincerely praised, "The bandits only care about robbing women, burning, killing, and looting! But you've led our entire Zhangjiatun to become stronger! Today, seven more families are eating meat, and in the future, there will be even more!"

This is true.

Thinking about the bright future, Zhang Yang felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

Just then, a noisy commotion suddenly arose in the courtyard.

"Where is Zhang Yang? Come out and talk to me!"

Who?

Zhang Yang rushed out immediately, his first reaction being to block the entrance to the main house.

The door behind her was still ajar, and Zhang Yan asked, "What's going on now?"

Zhang Yang stared at the group of people coming from Wulipu and sneered, "Thieves have broken in during broad daylight!"

"Who are you cursing with those foul mouth words! Who's the thief?!"

The people of Wulipu started making a fuss.

Zhang Yang: "If he's not a thief, then he's a bandit."

His gaze was as sharp as a knife.

"Since they came uninvited, and in such a large group, even knocking over other people's fences, they're definitely not guests!"

The people of Wulipu blushed and jumped up to refute him.

"You little thief! You stole our pigs from Wulipu!"

"Correct!"

You're the thief!

They were making a lot of noise, like field mice taking turns peeking out.

Zhang Yang wanted to laugh, but he asked calmly, "I hunted wild animals in the mountains, and I caught them on this side of Jiazigou. How did they become pigs from your Wulipu?"

The group flew into a rage again, shouting, "You're talking nonsense! There's nothing here in Jiazigou, where would a wild boar come from!"

Lin Qiushui's voice came from inside the door: "Even if it wasn't hunted in Jiazigou, it's still something from the mountains! No matter how you look at it, it belongs to the public, to everyone, not just your village!"

"Where did this little brat come from? When the men are talking, do you, a little girl, have the right to interrupt?" Qian Weiguo cursed.

He knew before he came that he was the only male in Zhang Yang's family.

The rest are all useless women!

Even though Zhang Yang was standing next to Zhao Dong, in Qian Weiguo's eyes, they were just two greenhorns who hadn't even grown up yet, and together they weren't even worth his attention!

He didn't take those two seriously at all!

Not to mention Lin Qiushui's reasoned arguments.

Qian Weiguo pointed to the hunting rifle that Zhang Yang hadn't yet taken off his back and smiled disdainfully.

"I know you've just become the captain of the militia squad and you're riding high! But you need to understand that Zhangjiatun hasn't had a militia squad for half a year. If it weren't for our Wulipu team protecting you, would you have been able to live so peacefully these days?"
