Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Five people entered the restaurant and sat down.

Lu Yao went to the window to order food.

Cao Erdan and his friends were like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden, curious about everything.

None of us have ever eaten out before.

The older folks say that the food in city restaurants tastes much better than what they make at home.

Even a simple bean sprout can be stir-fried into different flavors.

I'm really going to learn a lot this time, thanks to Lu Yao.

Erni sniffed hard.

The room smells so good.

They hadn't eaten lunch yet, and now their stomachs were growling loudly.

Lu Yao is back.

They brought back a large plate of steamed buns.

It was white and big, and steaming hot.

Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.

As soon as Ernier reached out, Gousheng slapped her hand back with his chopsticks:

"Wait a moment, the food will be served and we can eat together."

Lu Yao laughed and said, "Yes, lest you're full when the food comes out."

Erni asked Lu Yao in a low voice, "Brother Wa, what dishes did you order? I saw stir-fried dried tofu and meat on the table!"

Lu Yao began by listing the dishes for them:

"I ordered a stir-fried pork slices, a braised pork belly, a blood sausage with pickled cabbage, a stir-fried dried tofu with green peppers, a twice-cooked pork, and a stir-fried celery with pork."

"So many dishes?"

Cao Erdan's eyes were wide open, like glass balls:

"How much does this cost?"

Lu Yao laughed, "It's not much. A plate of braised pork slices is only 42 cents, and these steamed buns are 3 cents each, which is equivalent to two ounces of grain coupons. Our whole meal won't even cost the price of a wolfskin. What's there to be afraid of!"

Cao Erdan looked at him with envy.

Yes, that country bumpkin just made over three hundred yuan.

He's quite a wealthy man!

This amount of money is really nothing to him!

As soon as the dishes were served, people who were about to come and eat all looked over.

The highest monthly salary for a city dweller is only thirty yuan.

After deducting monthly expenses, not many people can afford to splurge on a restaurant even once a month.

Even if you come, you still have to carefully plan what dishes to order.

I wouldn't dare to eat and drink so much.

Lu Yao and his companions were strong and healthy, and six dishes were still not enough for them, so Lu Yao ordered two more.

I ate more than twenty large steamed buns, which were my staple food.

Erni'er's little belly was so full it was round.

Gou Shengzi's straw belt broke.

Cao Erdan secretly stuffed a steamed bun into his clothes, but Tiezhu saw him.

"What are you doing, eating and taking things at the same time? Have you no shame?"

Cao Erdan was very embarrassed:

"I... wanted to take some of my family's apricots back with me."

Lu Yao laughed and said, "Don't rush to pack up, eat first. We're all full, then I'll order some more so we can each take some home for our families. We can't just think of ourselves, right!"

These people were overjoyed when they heard that.

He felt an indescribable gratitude towards Lu Yao.

Lu Yao then instructed them:

"Take it back, but nobody's allowed to brag about it outside! Don't tell anyone how much I made, or you won't get another chance like this!"

The group readily agreed.

Lu Yao has a deep understanding of human nature.

Just because these few kids are nice to you doesn't mean everyone in the village is nice to you.

They even get jealous when they see you doing well.

They might be plotting something behind my back.

We are still in the development stage, so we shouldn't let others trip us up before we even get started.

We finished eating.

Lu Yao packed ten steamed buns and two bowls of braised pork for each person.

Back then, there were no plastic bags or takeout boxes; everyone had to provide their own containers for packing.

Lu Yao went out and bought several lunch boxes to hold the meat.

They bought up all the meat in the restaurant.

Lu Yao led them away quickly, noticing the waiter's questioning look; they were all afraid she would call the police.

They must suspect that their money came from illegitimate sources.

On the way back, several people sang folk songs together.

The sound of the horse-drawn carriage hooves was like the rhythm of a drum set.

Back in the village, Cao Erdan, to show respect, escorted Lu Yao all the way to his doorstep.

As soon as Lu Yao entered the room, Lu Xiaoqian could smell the meaty odor emanating from him.

He pounced and flipped over:

"What's on you? Why do you smell so good?"

"Oh dear, a steamed bun!"

"Oh my, what's in this lunchbox? Meat! It smells so good!"

Jiang Guizhi knew that Lu Yao had gone out to sell wolf pelts. She was very worried because he hadn't returned by nightfall.

When he returned with meat and steamed buns, he was overjoyed.

Seeing his mother and sister eating with their mouths full of oil, Lu Yao was also happy.

I took out ten yuan and gave it to my mother.

Jiang Guizhi couldn't help but ask, "How much did you get for the wolf pelt? And it's only this much?"

Lu Yao laughed, "How could it be just this much? It's over three hundred. But I need this money. I have to help a friend!"

"Over three hundred... you took it all to help friends? Who are you helping?"

Lu Yao reassured his puzzled mother:

"You don't need to worry about it. Just wait for your son to make you feel good. Your life will only get better from now on!"

In his previous life, after Lu Yao became wealthy, he often lamented that he had no relatives around him to enjoy the fruits of his labor.

This time, Mom and my sister are both here, so I'll make sure they enjoy themselves!

Watching them eat dinner, Lu Yao said he was going out for a walk and went out.

I'm not going anywhere else; I want to see Huang Yuejuan.

I haven't seen her all day since I slept with her last night.

We arrived at the entrance of the health clinic.

It was already past night watchman's time.

The clinic window flickered with the light of a kerosene lamp.

Lu Yao leaned closer to look inside.

Huang Yuejuan was still knitting a sweater under the lamp.

She's so quick; she knitted a circle yesterday, and now it's a tube.

It's already a vest; just add a couple more sleeves and it'll be about the right size.

It seems she did nothing but knit a sweater that day.

Reach out and knock on the window.

"Who?"

Huang Yuejuan was startled:

"It's me, Sister Yuejuan."

"A country bumpkin?"

Huang Yuejuan immediately showed a joyful expression.

He stood up, but then sat down again.

"What are you doing here? It's late, go home!"

"I've come to see you. I'm going to the commune to join the militia tomorrow."

"What?"

Huang Yuejuan's expression changed again, and she stood up.

But then he sat down again:

"Sure, go ahead, what's the big deal!"

Lu Yao watched her changing expressions from the window and couldn't help but find it amusing.

This perfectly captures the image of a shy girl!

She clearly cares about me, but she pretends to be angry with me!

"Alright, then I won't go in. I'm leaving. I'll join the militia, who knows when I'll be back!"

After saying that, he walked out.

After circling around, I returned to the entrance.

I'll gamble on whether I can guess her identity.

The window went black.

Huang Yuejuan came over and peered out the window.

Then, the door opened.

Huang Yuejuan, wearing a cotton-padded coat, chased after them.

"Little country bumpkin, feed...little country bumpkin!"

I called out several times in the direction of Lu Yao's house, but there was no reply in the darkness.

Huang Yuejuan turned around and walked back into the house, feeling a little disappointed.

"Sigh, you just leave like that? If you'd knocked a little longer, I would have opened it for you!"

I went back inside and locked the door.

Turning around, she screamed in fright:

"My goodness, you country bumpkin, when did you get in here!"

Lu Yao was sitting on the bed, laughing.

"I heard you call me, so I came in."

As she spoke, she came over, grabbed him, and put her hands inside his cotton-padded jacket.

"Quick, warm my hands!"

Huang Yuejuan was shy and hesitant, but she did not refuse.

"Stop touching it! People walking outside can see. Quick, turn off the lights."
