Siheyuan: Reborn in 59 years of famine, with a wife and daughter

Chapter 42 Returning from the mountains, another great harvest

Although Lin Qiye couldn't stand what Qin Huairu did, it was the Qin family's own business, so Lin Qiye didn't bother to say anything more.

Had a meal.

He said goodbye to Qinjia Village and prepared to return to Sijiu City to sell the wild boar in the space and buy two sets of good clothes for his wife and daughter.

Now that I have been reborn as a wife and a father, I naturally have to find a way to make them live a good life.

In his previous life, Lin Qiye was a responsible person, and this life is no exception.

The Qin family did not try to keep them. After all, this place was quite far from Sijiu City, and it would be difficult to catch the bus if they were any later.

However, there was a hint of disappointment in Qin Meiru's eyes.

She didn't expect that Lin Qiye was not here to propose marriage. Not only that, he was also a married man.

Qin Meiru's mother seemed to see through her daughter's thoughts and said, "Meiru, Qiye is not bad. He is responsible, a good hunter, and good-looking, but he has a family. Don't be discouraged. Your father and I will definitely find you an excellent man who will treat you well and your children well."

Qin Jingru, who was a smart little girl, stood aside and looked at Lin Qiye's leaving figure and said, "Auntie, Sister Meiru, what's wrong? Isn't this big brother here to propose marriage?"

"What marriage? They don't want to owe us a favor, so they sent us a leg of wild boar meat to repay the favor."

"Oh, what a pity. I thought he was here to ask my sister Meiru to be his daughter-in-law, so that I could go to the city with her in the future." He said with a pout, "My sister Meiru has a good heart, unlike my sister Huairu. Several times I said I wanted to go to the city with her, but she didn't want me to go, as if she was afraid that I would go bankrupt her."

Qin Han glared at Qin Jingru and said, "Go home, Jingru. If you want to live in the city, find a son-in-law for your father. Then you can bring your mother, me, your uncle, your aunt, and your second uncle and aunt to live in the city."

"Okay, Dad, then Jingru will not marry anyone from the city anymore. Let you guys live in the city too."

Having said that, Qin Jingru followed her father home.

On the other side, Lin Qiye walked out of the village, found an empty corner, activated his teleportation ability, and returned to Sijiu City.

After returning to Sijiu City, Lin Qiye took out the prey he had caught in the space, carried it on his back, and entered the No. 95 compound.

This time, Lin Qiye directly hired a human-powered tricycle, loaded it with prey, and pulled it all back to the courtyard.

There were wild boars, wild wolves, sables, lynxes and so on. Lin Qiye took the lives of all the prey that were not prepared to be raised in the space, took them out, and prepared to sell them all.

Seeing how many prey Lin Qiye had hunted, everyone in the courtyard was completely stunned.

Yan Jiecheng came up to him and said, "Brother, this is a great harvest. Where did you hunt all these prey? Is there a lot of prey in that place? How come you hunted so much prey in just two days?"

Lin Qiye glanced at Yan Jiecheng and said, "Jiecheng, it's okay to tell you. I caught this prey in Qinjialing, dozens of miles west. But hunting requires hunting skills. Not everyone can catch it. Don't miss it."

Upon hearing this, Yan Jiecheng curled his lips in disbelief and thought, as long as there is prey, anyone can catch it. It's not like you, Lin Qiye, have any great hunting skills. We are from the same compound and we know each other well.

You were just a street urchin who was drunk all day long and had no special skills. How could you beat him but I can't?

Yan Jiecheng was thinking about borrowing money from his father tonight to buy a hunting rifle. He would go hunting in Qinjialing tomorrow and would definitely have a good harvest.

However, the mountains are dangerous, so Yan Jiecheng plans to ask a few young people in the compound to go together.

Everyone knew that Lin Qiye had another great harvest this time. He hunted a lot of prey and hired a human-powered tricycle to bring it back.

All the neighbors in the compound came to watch.

The tricycle driver helped Lin Qiye transport the meat into the compound, unloaded the prey, charged Lin Qiye 30 cents for the transportation fee, and then rode away on the tricycle.

His wife Li Yueling was also completely shocked. She didn't expect that her husband would catch more prey today.

The neighbors who were watching nearby were also amazed.

"Oh my, this wild boar weighs at least three hundred kilograms."

"There are also two gray wolves, a lynx, and a sable."

"I heard that the skins of gray wolf, lynx, and sable are very valuable, especially the sable skin, which can be exchanged for two of the four major items."

"Qiye, where did you get these prey? We are all neighbors in the same compound. You can't make a fortune on your own. Let us try our luck too."

Everyone was talking to each other, drooling with envy.

If the prey that Lin Qiye caught today were converted into money, it would at least be worth six or seven hundred yuan.

These incomes are what an ordinary wage earner would need two years to achieve.

Even for a master fitter or forger like Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, the salary can at least be equal to half a year's salary for them.

Anyone who sees this will be envious and jealous.

Feeling the constant flow of jealousy points, Lin Qiye simply found a wooden block and started to cut up the meat of the prey at the door.

The neighbors of the compound were reluctant to leave for a long time, thinking that since Lin Qiye had hunted so many preys, if they stayed for a while longer, would Lin Qiye be kind enough to share some with them?

But under everyone's gaze, Lin Qiye cut up the prey and brought it into his own kitchen, with no intention of sharing any with everyone.

In the past, when his wife and daughter were having a hard time and were almost reduced to begging, these neighbors in the compound did not help, so Lin Qiye had reason to ignore these people.

So everyone walked out of the Xituoyuan again with complaints in their hearts.

"Lin Qiye is so stingy. He hunted so many prey. He could have at least given us two pounds of prey to try, or at least some bones to make soup. But he actually carried all the prey home."

"Yes, it's outrageous. At first, he was holding a wooden block outside to divide the meat. I thought he was going to share it with all of us, but he actually ate it all by himself."

"Humph, choke his whole family to death."

"It's just hunting some prey, what's the big deal? If we know they were hunted in Qinjialing, we can buy a hunting rifle and get some. Lin Qiye is not much more capable than us."

Xu Damao even said directly to Lou Xiao'e: "Xiao'e, why don't I go buy a shotgun? It just so happens that there is no screening task at the factory tomorrow, why don't I go and try it?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded and said, "I think it can be done. Lin Qiye's ability is not as great as yours, Damao. If he can catch the prey, I don't believe you can't."

Sha Zhu was also sitting at home, feeling extremely envious. He decided to take a day off tomorrow and go hunting in Qinjialing. He couldn't let Lin Qiye be the only one to get rich.

Since Lin Qiye was able to catch so many prey, it means that there are a lot of prey in the mountains.

Sha Zhu felt that if he went into the mountains, he would become successful.

He Yushui, who was standing aside, had her stomach completely conquered by Lin Qiye. After eating the braised wild boar meat and braised rabbit meat at Lin Qiye's house yesterday, she was delighted to see Lin Qiye had hunted so many prey.

I'm greedy again.

But she just went there to eat for free yesterday, so she felt embarrassed to do so again today.

"Yushui, stop thinking about the meat from Lin Qiye's family. I'll take a day off tomorrow and go to Qinjialing to hunt some game. I'll make a good meal for you."

He Yushui looked at Sha Zhu suspiciously and said, "But brother, do you know how to hunt? Can you catch it?"

At this moment, Yan Jiecheng, who was originally planning to go hunting in Qinjialing with a few young people, happened to come to the central courtyard and heard the conversation between Sha Zhu and his sister.

Yan Jiecheng walked into Sha Zhu's house.

"Lin Qiye is not a celestial being. If he can catch prey, then so can we. Zhuzi, why don't we form a hunting team tomorrow and go into the mountains together? This way we can avoid being harmed by wild beasts and cooperate in hunting.

We will split the prey we catch in equal parts. Lin Qiye can catch as many prey as he wants by himself, but if we form a hunting team, the prey we catch will definitely be several times more than his. Then he will be envious."

He Yushui muttered quietly, "Brother Qiye can catch prey, but you may not be able to. Brother Qiye's ability now is not comparable to yours."

Yan Jiecheng said, “What?”

"No...nothing. I mean, hunting also requires skills."

Sha Zhu also said at this time: "If hunting is about skills, then Lin Qiye would not be able to catch prey. What skills can a street urchin who often drinks have?"
