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

Chapter 170 Can't Sleep Because I Want a Man

Lu Yao sighed and held Ding Mei down:

"Why are you going back to your house? I'm not going there. I'm really going to the village office to wait for Yang Shouye. Besides, I have to go into the mountains today to find the bodies of the Diao brothers, I'm very busy. Listen to me, just wait at my house obediently, okay?"

"I……"

"Can you do it or not? Look at me and say yes or no. Will you listen to me?"

Lu Yao wouldn't let Ding Mei speak, so he cupped her face and lifted her up to look at him.

Ding Mei had no choice: "Then swear you won't hit my dad."

"Okay, I swear, I won't fight back if he hits me!"

Ding Mei shook her head: "You can't let him hit you. If he hits you, can you just run away?"

Lu Yao gave a bitter smile, and then laughed in anger:

"Fine, I'll fall for your tricks, Little Mei. I'll endure whatever your father says and not fight back!"

Since his mother wasn't hurt, Lu Yao, out of respect for Ding Mei, didn't necessarily want to beat up Ding Dahu.

But there's something I have to tell him today.

After calming Ding Mei down, he left his house and headed straight for the Ding family home.

Ding Dahu ran all the way home.

Once inside, he picked up a water ladle, scooped half a ladle of ice-cold water from the water vat, and poured it in with a "glug glug" sound.

He wasn't a ferryman who could just let things go after being beaten by Lu Yao.

I'm so angry I feel like my chest is about to explode.

Xie Chunfang came out and asked:

"Master, have you seen Little Rose?"

"Oh no, I'm going to sleep with Tuwazi."

"What? So fast? No way!"

"No way? I saw it with my own eyes. Tuwazi's mother and sister were hiding in the outer room, and they left the two of them alone on the kang (a heated brick bed). Do you think that's acceptable?"

Seeing the dark circles under his eyes, Xie Chunfang quickly asked:

"So you got into a fight with that country bumpkin?"

"How could I possibly let him get away with this! I'll give him a good beating, leaving his face covered in blood! My five-shot burst is still with Xiao Meizi; if it were in my hands, I'd blow him to bits!"

Xie Chunfang shook her head again, advising, "Honey, I don't think it's very likely. Are you seeing things? Didn't Xiao Meizi break her leg? It's only been a few days; wouldn't it hurt to do that?"

"Hmph, that bastard Tuwazi doesn't care if Xiaomeizi is in pain or not, he just wants to have his own fun!"

Seeing that Ding Dahu was so angry he could hardly breathe, Xie Chunfang quickly helped him by patting his chest.

"Honey, don't be angry. Did you ask if Xiao Meizi is coming back?"

"I don't want her back! I don't want such a shameful girl! Let's try our best tonight, and see if we can have a boy!"

Xie Chunfang couldn't help but sigh.

I've been married to Da Hu for years.

The land has been tilled a lot, but the seeds just won't sprout.

I went to the hospital for a checkup, and it turned out to be my own problem.

Cold uterus makes it difficult to conceive.

Ding Dahu and Xie Chunfang had just entered the room and sat down.

Ding Dahu was still shouting and yelling that he would go find Tuwazi later.

The door opened and someone came in.

It was Lu Yao.

He was dressed neatly, with a Mauser pistol slung across his waist.

Xie Chunfang looked at Lu Yao, whose face was completely smooth and seemed to be unharmed.

I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Ding Dahu used to be a really good fighter; he never brags.

Now it's all over. He got beaten up by that country bumpkin. He's afraid of losing face when he gets back, so he's still bragging to me!

Ding Dahu, who Xie Chunfang couldn't even hold down, was taken aback:

"What the hell are you doing here?"

He turned around and grabbed the stool.

It's not for attacking; it's for self-defense.

This kid has a gun. Ding Dahu isn't afraid of Lu Yao, but he's also intimidated by guns.

What if this reckless kid actually shoots himself?

Lu Yao sat down with a smile.

Xie Chunfang, who was blocking Ding Dahu, said, "Go, boil some water. I want to have a chat with Uncle Dahu."

"Oh, then you mustn't fight."

"What's the point of fighting? We're all family."

Xie Chunfang tentatively released Ding Dahu.

Seeing that Ding Dahu didn't rush up, he went to the kitchen.

"What's there for us to talk about?"

Ding Dahu remained aggressive.

Lu Yao laughed and said, "Don't be so loud. I won't hit you for Xiao Meizi's sake. I want to discuss something with you."

"No discussion, whatever you say is pointless!"

Lu Yao didn't care whether he was listening or not, and said directly:

"How many years have you been the production team leader?"

"None of your business!"

"Of course it concerns me. I'm part of Jiapigou, so whoever becomes the captain is relevant to me."

Ding Dahu glared at him with his bull-like eyes:

"What's it to you?"

I thought he came to explain things about Ding Mei, but I didn't expect him to bring up the production team leader's matter.

Lu Yao shifted his position and sat down on the kang (a heated brick bed). It was very warm under the mattress at the head of the kang.

He also grabbed a handful of roasted melon seeds from the small winnowing basket on the kang (heated brick bed) and started cracking them open.

"Uncle Da Hu, you've been the production team leader for so many years, and besides leading everyone in farming during the summer, you haven't done anything else. I want to talk to you about letting me take over for two years. I promise I'll make sure the villagers not only have enough to eat, but they eat well. We'll become richer and richer from now on!"

"You're talking nonsense!"

Ding Dahu was so angry he jumped up and down:

"You're not satisfied with just stealing my daughter, you want to steal my captain too?"

Lu Yao laughed and said, "Who stole your daughter? Didn't you abandon Xiao Meizi and force her to go to my house? You can't just let her sleep on the streets just because you don't want her! Besides, I'm just discussing this with you. If you voluntarily give up the team leader position to me, you won't lose face."

"Get out of here... Don't wait until I hit you with a stool! Go ahead and shoot me if you dare."

Ding Dahu's temper was about to explode from holding it in.

That is, after suffering repeated losses at Lu Yao's hands, he knew he couldn't beat him.

Otherwise, they would have already smashed a stool at me.

Lu Yao also stopped smiling.

"Uncle Tiger, can you sit here quietly and listen to me? I'm trying to discuss something with you..."

"No discussion, we have nothing to say to each other!"

Lu Yao stood up.

Ding Dahu took a step back, picked up the stool, and prepared to counterattack at any moment.

Lu Yao sneered: "If you don't talk nonsense, don't blame me for not giving you face when the brigade headquarters holds a meeting later."

"What kind of meeting is this? Do you think you could even get into the brigade headquarters if I didn't say it was a meeting? Get lost!"

Lu Yao was so angry he laughed:

"You're lucky you had a good daughter. Otherwise, if you talked to me like that, I'd break your teeth!"

After saying that, he walked out.

Xie Chunfang came in carrying a teapot:

"Don't go, you little rascal, have some water..."

"Get him out!"

Ding Dahu roared, startling Xie Chunfang.

Make way for Lu Yao.

Lu Yao came out.

I thought to myself, "Ding Dahu, you're so ungrateful! I wanted to talk to you nicely, to save you some face, but you're just asking for trouble!"

Let's go home first.

I'm determined to be the captain of this brigade.

Lu Yao strolled back.

It was already daylight by then.

I saw a young woman with her hair up in a bun, not wearing a headscarf, walking over.

Lu Yao's eyes lit up:

"Hey, you country bumpkin, where have you been?"

Lu Yao looked up and saw that it was Zhang Mazi's wife, Xilian.

"I'm going home, where are you going?"

Xilian said with a pained expression, "I haven't been able to sleep these past few days, and I was thinking of asking Miss Huang to prescribe some medicine for me."

When Lu Yao looked at happy Lian, he noticed that she had lost a lot of weight in just a few days.

Her eyes are bigger than before.

"Why can't you sleep? Thinking about Uncle Pockmarked?"

Xilian's eyes were filled with tears: "Suddenly I'm all alone. How can I sleep? If he were alive, even if he beats or scolds me, at least he would have someone to keep me company."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yao's heart softened.

This woman doesn't seem to be as heartless and ungrateful as later rumors suggested:

"Aunt Xilian, you must be suffering from neurasthenia lately. Come with me, I'll give you some acupressure and you'll feel better."

"you……"

happy Lianxin said, "I couldn't sleep because I missed my man, why are you pricking me? Where? Which acupoint?"
