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

Chapter 549 You're going to raise this girl?

Yuan Tianchu was stunned for a moment.

He stepped back and looked Lu Yao up and down:

"What? Your militia is supporting the police again?"

Lu Yao gave a wry smile: "I called you out to talk because I didn't want to mention this in front of Jing Yiming's daughter. To be honest, I'm friends with Jing Yiming's daughter. And this girl is kind-hearted and definitely not a bad person, which is why I stepped in to help her and persuade her father to turn himself in."

Yuan Tianchu seemed to have realized something.

Reaching out, I took Lu Yao's hand:

"My child, you are excellent. I admire you so much."

Just now, the instant Lu Yao said he had captured Jing Yiming, Yuan Tianshu felt a chill run down his spine.

But she quickly dismissed her concerns.

I'm increasingly convinced that I didn't misjudge him; this young man is a promising talent.

Furthermore, I inquired in detail about the events of Lu Yao's day.

I also feel that Lu Yao's actions are both righteous and wicked, unlike the current police chief Mei Ping who is so rigid and inflexible.

The two chatted in the kitchen for about ten minutes.

Although Lu Yao had doubts about Chairman Yuan Tianchu, he did not dislike him; on the contrary, he respected him to some extent.

Because this person's demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, and his expression carried a sense of ease and composure.

It has the imposing presence of someone who remains calm even if Mount Tai collapses before them.

That kind of temperament is something neither Jing Yiming nor Shi Shouyin possesses.

Moreover, the two found many points of view to be very compatible during their conversation.

This man truly deserves to be called a veteran of Jiangzhou; he is indeed exceptional.

However, the occasional hint of ferocity he revealed made Lu Yao feel slightly uncomfortable.

However, I also feel that this kind of murderous aura might be unique to an older generation of revolutionaries.

But Hao Limin didn't have that.

At that moment, Yuan Hai returned.

The two then returned to the house with Yuan Hai.

Yuan Tianchu came here to inquire about Jing Yiming from Yuan Hai.

At this point, Lu Yao said that since Jing Yiming's daughter was here, it wasn't appropriate to discuss anything, so they started chatting.

Yuan Tianshu has now stepped down to the second line, but he is well-informed and treats Yuan Hai as nothing more than a puppet and his eyes and ears.

Although over the years I've bribed some younger people to run errands, none of them have been able to take on any major responsibilities.

They finally managed to raise a big-bearded Chen, only to have him ruined by Lu Yao.

Now I can only be assigned to a small position in a market administration office.

He valued Lu Yao highly and wanted Lu Yao to help him succeed.

Knowing Lu Yao's unruly nature, we can only try to influence him and win him over gradually; we cannot force him.

So he quickly asked Yuan Hai and his wife to prepare some dishes so that he could have a drink with Lu Yao.

Unable to refuse such hospitality, and also because he was hungry, Lu Yao was also hungry.

Yuan Hai took out the best New Year's goods and cooked with his wife. Before long, six dishes were ready.

The table was filled with delicious aromas; there was chicken, duck, fish, and meat.

That's at the factory manager level. It's already the eleventh day of the first lunar month, and there are still so many good dishes at home.

In most households, people have already started eating cornbread, flatbread, and sticky rice cakes.

In some of the poorer mountain villages, there are families who don't even know where their next meal will come from.

No matter the era, the gap between rich and poor can never be completely balanced; it's just that the gap is relatively small in this era.

After this meal, the Yuan family will have to eat flatbread tomorrow.

Yuan Hai took out his treasured Zhuyeqing liquor, and the three of them began to drink together.

Yuan Shumei and Ding Mei took care of Jing Youxiang's feelings and did not laugh and play as usual. They listened quietly to the adults chatting.

Jing Youxiang was also afraid of affecting everyone's mood, so she tried her best to smile and talk to Ding Mei and the others.

Lu Yao brought Jing Youxiang back and was also observing Ding Mei's expression.

I was afraid she would be unhappy.

However, throughout the meal, Ding Mei did not exhibit any negative emotions.

Why does it feel like Jing Youxiang is her friend, rather than her own?

Are women really that easy to get along with?

Although Xiao Meizi appears feisty, she has a very kind heart.

Lu Yao was a little touched, and even a little regretful.

How come I didn't notice so many of Xiao Meizi's good qualities in my previous life?

How complex her expression must have been when she remembered calling her "Mom" at that moment.

Looking back now, it feels absurd; how could I have uttered those words?

After the meal, Lu Yao was going to take Ding Mei and Jing Youxiang back, and Yuan Shumei was going to come along.

Ding Mei invited her to Jiapigou to celebrate the Lantern Festival.

She has already bought the glutinous rice balls for the Lantern Festival.

They were wrapped in paper bags, and I bought five for each person in my family.

Lu Yao gave her enough money to buy a lot, but not enough grain coupons; one tael of grain coupons could only buy three items.

Yuan Hai did not stop his daughter from going with him.

Now that he sees that Lu Yao has a fiancée, he feels even more at ease.

At least, Yuan Tianchu will no longer use his own daughter as a pawn.

Lu Yao got into the car with the three girls and drove towards Shuiling Town.

Yuan Shumei said enviously, "Lu Yao, you're so popular. I've never seen my grandfather smile, but when he looks at you, he never stops smiling."

Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh and said, "I haven't offended him, nor do I need him to do anything for me, so there's no need to put on a stern face."

"But I feel that Grandpa must really like you."

"That's right, we country bumpkins aren't popular anywhere, but even my dad likes him!"

Ding Mei then interjected, saying that she genuinely liked Lu Yao.

I really feel like Lu Yao has absolutely no flaws.

Jing Youxiang felt downcast, thinking to herself, "My dad also likes Lu Yao."

It's a pity that my father wasn't Japanese. If only I could have tried to be his wife, or at least be a good friend.

Now... Jing Youxiang feels somewhat inferior, as if she is superfluous on this bus.

Fortunately, the three of them noticed her mood and spoke to her from time to time.

When the car arrived at Shuiling Town, Yuan Shumei glanced into the town.

Lu Yao asked with a smile, "Want to visit your sister's house?"

"I'm not going. I'm annoyed by my brother-in-law. He's unreliable."

Ding Mei nodded. "I'm annoyed too. I'm even more annoyed by his father."

Jing Youxiang stared blankly at the town.

I remember the first time I came here, I got into a fight with Yuan Shumei on the street, and she even bit my hand.

The car didn't stop, it drove straight to Jiapigou.

Instead of going home, I took Ding Mei and the others back first.

When Ding Dahu entered the room, he was startled to see that Ding Mei had brought back another little girl to stay.

At this time, even families that were relatively well-off were afraid of having guests stay over because they couldn't afford to feed them.

We're lucky to have a few Shumeis already; if another one comes, where will we get food?

Even if Jing Youxiang is petite and cute, it won't work.

Fortunately, Lu Yao secretly slipped twenty yuan to Xie Chunfang.

The couple then became enthusiastic.

However, Ding Dahu was still not entirely happy that his future son-in-law was using his money to support another girl.

While Lu Yao went to the outer room to drink cold water, he followed him out:

"Hey country bumpkin, what's your relationship with this girl? Are you paying to support her?"

"She's a friend of mine and Xiaomei's. Her family is in trouble; her parents have been arrested, and her brother is dead. Xiaomei and I can't just stand by and do nothing. If you don't want her here, I'll have her go to Sister Yuejuan's. We were already supposed to help out there, but Xiaomei insisted on dragging her here, saying it would be more fun. If twenty yuan isn't enough for food, I'll give you some more..."

Lu Yao said he was going to take out his money.

Ding Dahu quickly pressed his hand down:

"No need, no need. I know you have money, so save it. You're getting married soon."

Then he asked, "By the way, Tuwazi, when are you going hunting in the mountains?"

"tomorrow!"

Lu Yao didn't want to delay any longer; hunting was the fastest way to make money right now.
