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

Qian Weiguo was unconvinced. "My grandfather and father used to fight their way through the same place, and they were all fine. I just don't believe it! How could it be the work of a weasel?"

He slapped his forehead and suddenly realized he understood.

"Zhang Haiquan, tell me the truth, did you see it with your own eyes?!"

Zhang Haiquan frowned.

Qian Weiguo flew into a rage, "You didn't see it! You just heard it from someone else!"

He realized that Zhang Yang's group had been going into the mountains most frequently recently, and immediately connected everything together!

"I get it! It's Zhang Yang who hates our Wang family! So he deliberately targeted my daughter!"

"It wasn't **! It was Zhang Yang! Zhang Yang took my daughter away!"

"He made all these things up to deceive us!"

Qian Weiguo became increasingly angry as he spoke, and he was about to load the gun.

"I'm going to kill him right now!"

Zhang Haiquan tried his best to stop him, "Uncle Weiguo! Calm down! More than one person saw Xiuju go crazy last night!"

Qian Weiguo yelled at him, "What's the use of saying all this now! Where's my daughter? I'm asking you! Where's my daughter!"

Qian Weiguo was convinced that Zhang Yang was responsible, and his face and heart were twisted with rage.

"He must have locked my daughter up somewhere! I'm going to wipe out the Zhang family!"

"Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I will find my Xiuju!"

Sun Hongying was of one mind with him, and she picked up a wood-chopping knife, determined to kill her way to Zhangjiatun. "If anything happens to my Xiuju, I'll sell all the daughters of the Zhang family to those old widowers at the mine! Let them abuse those sluts to death!"

Zhang Haiquan was so angry at Sun Hongying's foul language that his liver ached.

"Let's see who dares to go!"

He slammed his fist on the table and growled:

"What if this wasn't Zhang Yang's doing, but your daughter's own fault? If you two rush out and make a scene that gets known in two villages, how will she ever be able to face anyone again?"

"Besides, no matter what, go check if there are any weasels in your trap first!"

"I've practically watched Xiuju grow up, I can't just stand by and watch something happen to her!"

Zhang Haiquan tried everything, from kind words to harsh ones, and finally managed to persuade Qian Weiguo and his wife to agree.

The two of them, like two fierce demons, went to the back mountain of their house with great pride and arrogance.

They checked each trap one by one, and when they got to the third trap, they actually found something.

There was blood on the edge of the trap, and although it had congealed, there was still a considerable amount!

"With injuries like that, this beast can't have gone far!"

Qian Weiguo headed towards the trap further ahead, but as he touched it, he suddenly slipped and fell into the pit he had dug himself.

The remaining snow, along with withered branches and clods of earth, came crashing down, making him dizzy.

The cave was dimly lit, but Qian Weiguo seemed to see someone standing in front of him.

He was dressed in white shirt and black pants, with disheveled hair, looking like a ghost from hell!

"Mom!"

Qian Weiguo tried to escape, but as soon as he turned around, he bumped into the earthen wall.

"Found you! I've finally found you! I'll strangle you! I'll strangle you!" Qian Xiuju screamed shrilly as she tried to strangle Qian Weiguo with her frozen hands.

"Weiguo!"

"Uncle Weiguo!"

Sun Hongying and Zhang Haiquan shouted from the ground, bringing back Qian Weiguo's survival instinct.

He gathered his strength in both hands, grabbed the hands that were choking him on the back of the neck, and with an over-the-shoulder throw, immediately turned the tables and took the initiative!

Qian Xiuju was thrown out by him and fainted on the spot.

Qian Weiguo made out the profile of the person on the ground in the dim light, and immediately felt utterly hopeless.

"Xiuju!!!"

……

Qian Xiuju was found and sent to the clinic.

However, under Zhang Haiquan's strict control, the matter did not spread.

Zhang Yang only heard about it in the afternoon.

The person who tipped him off was actually Lin Qiushui.

"Zhang Yang! Did you see a woman when you went up the mountain last night? She seemed unwell, crying and making a scene?"

Lin Qiushui rushed to the Zhang family's woodshed, disregarding the strict separation between men and women, and hurriedly informed him.

"The person has been found!"

"They've been taken to the clinic and are receiving treatment!"

"Her body was covered in cuts from tree branches on the mountain, and her hands and feet were covered in frostbite..."

"The doctor said that he must have been walking in the mountains all night."

"Moreover, her voice is also damaged, and she can't even shout."

"For now, it's just a matter of saving my life."

"But her parents are unreasonable. They keep saying that Zhangjiatun is what made their daughter like this! They've even mentioned your name several times!"

At this point, Lin Qiushui said indignantly, "They are parents, yet they disregard their daughter's life and death, and keep clamoring to come and demand compensation for medical expenses from you!"

Zhang Yang couldn't help but sneer.

The Wang and Qian families truly exemplify that saying:

If you're not family, you won't enter the same door!

These ugly faces of begging for money are exactly the same!

“Zhang Yang, I can vouch for you! You’re not that kind of person. You would never retaliate against that girl because of a conflict between two militia squads!” Lin Qiushui said firmly.

Zhang Yang raised his hand and patted her shoulder. "Thank you, Qiu Shui. But you don't need to get involved in this yet. Just protect yourself—"

Before he could finish speaking, he heard Wang Jie banging on the door loudly from the outside.

"Zhang Yan! My sister is sick! We need money right now!"

"You wanted a divorce? I'll do it today!"

"Give me the eighty-eight yuan right away after we divorce!"

The fact that Zhang Yan and Wang Jie are getting a divorce is no secret in the nearby villages.

Lin Qiushui had also heard about it.

But what she did know was that the Wang family had given Zhang Yang a month's notice.

It's only been a little over half a month since this incident, so why are they already demanding money from us?

Lin Qiushui's parents both work in a factory in Zhenhai City. They are both cadres, but their combined monthly salary is less than one hundred yuan.

Wang Jie asks for 88 yuan with just a few words; isn't that driving people crazy?

Lin Qiushui thought of the small cloth bag her mother had secretly given her.

There were about fifty yuan inside, which was her mother's own savings.

It was given to her to use as a backup plan, but after she went to the countryside, she never spent any of it.

"Zhang Yang, don't worry, I have money!" Lin Qiushui held Zhang Yang down and comforted him, "I'll give him my fifty yuan first. He just wants money, right? Give him two hundred first, have him write a receipt, and you can figure out the rest later!"

Zhang Yang was stunned.

Lin Qiushui has fifty dollars?

I didn't realize this girl was so rich!

“Qiushui, I have money.” Zhang Yang said with a smile, pulling Lin Qiushui back as she was about to run away. “But you’re right, we can’t give him that much at once. I’ll listen to you and give him twenty yuan first.”

Then, he took Lin Qiushui to the next room and, without any pretense, spoke frankly to Zhang Yan:

"Sister, could you give me two old 'one-yuan' bills?"

Zhang Yang had saved all the money he brought back for Zhang Yan.

Firstly, Zhang Yan is steady and cautious, so it's safest to entrust the money to her.

Secondly, Zhang Yang wanted to reassure his sister, letting her know that his family had the means to support her divorce and that she could rest easy.

Now that Zhang Yang asked for money, Zhang Yan immediately pulled out a small iron box and showed her several stacks of ten-yuan notes neatly tied with thin hemp rope.
