Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

Chen Xueru breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "That's just right. But big brother, you don't have to give me all the money today. Just give me two dollars as a deposit, and give me the rest when you come to pick up the clothes. I'll ask the master to make clothes for you right now. The master in our store has been making clothes for a lifetime. He has good skills and can make clothes quickly. You can come to pick up the clothes at this time tomorrow."

Then he opened a ticket and handed it to Yang Chong: "Brother, come to me with this ticket when the time comes."

Yang Chong nodded. It takes time to make clothes. It would be fast if three pieces of clothing could be finished tomorrow.

"Let's go. It's getting late. We should go home." Yang Chong took Yu Xiu's hand and walked out of the cloth shop. Behind them, Chen Xueru looked at them with envy, as if she was remembering her past.

When they returned to the courtyard, the people there saw the two people coming back affectionately, and their expressions varied.

All kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.

Only Aunt Wang came forward and greeted enthusiastically: "Have you registered?"

Yu Xiu blushed and nodded vigorously: "Registration is done, aunt." As she said that, she took out the piece of paper she had been holding in her hand and showed it to Aunt Wang.

Aunt Wang said happily, "Okay, okay, just register. Now you are a family and you don't have to worry about what others say."

Yu Xiu nodded vigorously and looked at Yang Chong beside her, her face full of a happy and shy smile.

Aunt Wang added, "Chongzi, I have something else to say. You are no longer a bachelor. If you have one mouth to feed, the whole family will not be hungry. You must work hard and don't let Xiuer suffer with you."

Yang Chong nodded: "Don't worry, aunt, I will definitely let Xiu'er live a good life."

He was not just talking. The next morning after breakfast, he went out.

Although the system rewarded him with dozens of dollars in cash and a large meal, which was enough for the couple to have a comfortable "honeymoon", Yang Chong was well aware of the principle of living beyond one's means. He did not want to indulge in temporary enjoyment and spend all his capital before thinking about making more money.

What's more, the system rewarded him with a god-level hunter skill, but he has yet to try it out to see if it really works.

Seeing that he was about to go out, Yu Xiu was very sensible and baked some white flour cakes for him, and fried some vegetables and put them in a lunch box for him to take with him for lunch.

These days, people who go out to find odd jobs all bring their own meals, and only those who work in state-owned factories eat in the cafeteria.

"Brother, are you still going to carry the bags today? Remember to carry less and don't tire yourself out." Yu Xiu reminded.

Yang Chong rubbed her hair with his big hands and said, "No, I won't carry bags anymore. I can't make much money from carrying bags. I can't even support myself. I have to support you in the future, so I have to do some work to earn money."

Yu Xiu asked curiously, "You don't want to carry bags anymore? Then what kind of job can make more money than carrying bags?"

Yang Chong smiled and said, "I won't tell you yet. You will know when I come back."

As he said this, he put on the cloth bag containing the lunch box and prepared to go out. As soon as he turned around, he remembered something and turned his head to warn: "Xiu'er, when I'm not at home during the day, if someone in the yard bullies you, especially the family next door, remember, don't argue with them, wait for me to come back and deal with them!"

Yu Xiu felt warm in her heart: "Brother, I know."

Chapter 14: First Trial

Yang Chong didn't carry the bag again today.

As a time traveler with a system in his possession, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the system if he carried the bag?

The system rewarded me with a god-level hunter skill, but I haven’t tried it yet and don’t know if it works well.

Since it is a hunter skill, as the name suggests, it is used for hunting. Yang Chong went directly to the bus station and took the bus to Beishan.

Beishan is seventy or eighty miles away from Sijiu City. There are mountains that stretch for dozens of miles. There are all kinds of prey in the mountains, enough to try out your hunting skills.

At the foot of the mountain is Yangjia Village, Yang Chong's hometown. I remember that when I was a child, I often followed my grandfather to the mountains to hunt, and it was a good opportunity to go back and see what my hometown looked like.

The bus took more than an hour to travel a distance of seventy or eighty miles on a road. The speed of cars in that era cannot be compared with that of later generations.

Yangjia Village is also the final stop of this bus. When we finally arrived at the entrance of Yangjia Village, only Yang Chong and another old man in his fifties or sixties were left on the bus.

The old man slept all the way until the car stopped and the driver shouted, "Yang Laochuan, wake up, don't sleep anymore, we're home!"

Then he said to Yang Chong, "Young man, are you going back to the city this afternoon? If so, remember that the last bus is at four o'clock. If you miss it, there will be no more buses."

Yang Chong nodded: "Okay, got it, thank you, Master."

"We're here already?" The old man named Yang Laochuan opened his eyes dazedly, then quickly stood up and called to the driver: "Master Liu, let's go, we're home, let's go home and have a meal before coming back."

The two people seemed to be familiar with each other. The driver chuckled and said, "No, Lao Yang, if I go to your house and don't cook for me, won't your wife kick me out?"

It was true. The disasters were so severe these days that people couldn't even fill their stomachs. Who had extra food to cook? Moreover, this was a rural area. The villagers even stripped the bark off the trees at the entrance of the village. Life was so difficult.

Yang Laochuan chuckled and did not deny it. He picked up the sack on the ground, put it on his shoulder, waved his hand and got out of the car.

Yang Chong also got out of the car. Yang Laochuan looked at him in surprise: "Young man, you are not from a nearby village, right? Are you looking for someone in Yangjia Village?"

Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly stunned, looked at Yang Chong in surprise, and then tried to ask: "Are you Chongzi from a big country?"

Yang Chong smiled and nodded: "Second uncle, do you still remember me?"

Yang Laochuan's face flushed with excitement. He threw down the sack on his shoulder and ran over, hugging Yang Chong tightly: "How could I not remember you? I have raised you from childhood to adulthood. I remember every hair on your body clearly. Even if you turn into ashes, I will recognize you!"

He let go of Yang Chong's hand and looked at him in surprise: "Where are your parents? Why did you come back alone? Since your family moved to the city, you haven't been back to the village for at least five or six years, right?"

Yang Chong nodded: "Yes, it has been five or six years. Uncle, how is your family doing?"

Yang Laochuan sighed: "What else can I do? It's good enough not to starve to death these days. By the way, kid, tell me, where are your parents? Why didn't they come back with you?"

Yang Chong said, "Uncle, I came back to the village this time because my family couldn't afford to eat, so I wanted to go to the mountains behind to hunt some rabbits and pheasants. I remember you have a hunting rifle at home, can you lend it to me?"

Yang Laochuan said with tears and laughter: "Of course I have a hunting rifle. My hunting rifle is hanging at home. But it's useless. These two years are not like before. People have nothing to eat now. They have already hunted down all the game. I'm afraid you've come here for nothing."

Yang Chong's heart skipped a beat after hearing these words. He thought, has his trip been in vain? Or, are the skills rewarded to him by the system going to become useless?

But he still said, "Since I'm here, I might as well give it a try. What if I'm lucky enough to find it?"

Yang Laochuan laughed: "Okay, if you want to try, then try. I'll go home and get you a shotgun. Even if you don't get the shot, it's okay. Come to my house for dinner."

Yang Chong smiled, shook the cloth bag in his hand and said, "It's okay, uncle, you don't have to worry about the meal. My wife brought some food when I came."

Yang Laochuan said in surprise: "Chongzi, you are married? Great, great!"

As he spoke, he brought Yang Chong to his home. There was no one at home, not even Yang Laochuan's wife and daughter.

Yang Laochuan took off the hunting rifle and handed some ammunition to Yang Chong, reminding him, "Do you know how to use it? Do you want me to teach you how to use it? You have to be careful with this thing. Don't miss the rabbit and get yourself hurt. How can I explain to your parents then?"

Yang Chong smiled and said, "Don't worry, Uncle. I have been able to do this since I was a child. Have you forgotten it?"

Yang Laochuan nodded: "Okay, then you should be careful."

After leaving Yang Laochuan's house, Yang Chong went straight to the back mountain with his hunting rifle on his back.

When he was a child, he often followed his grandfather to the mountains to hunt, so he was very familiar with the way up the mountain. He did not go to the mountain in front, but went straight through the valley and went directly to a mountain behind.

If what Yang Laochuan said was true, then the prey on the mountain ahead must have been killed by others. He didn't want to go there and waste his energy. However, this mountain was rarely visited by people before, so he hoped to get something.

As soon as he entered the mountain, Yang Chong had a different feeling from before.

Walking on the mountain road, he seemed to be able to sense the scent left by the passing prey and wild beasts around him, and he could also distinguish the traces left by various prey.

It can even sense the range of its prey's movements.

It seems that this is all the divine knowledge brought to him by the god-level hunter skills.

He carefully identified the traces and scent of the prey, and soon found a pheasant's nest by following the traces and scent. He stopped about ten meters away from the pheasant's nest.

He took off the hunting rifle from his back, loaded it with ammunition, and then slowly continued to move forward.

After walking a few more meters, the pheasant finally lost its patience and flew out of the nest with a flutter, trying to escape the scene.

But how could Yang Chong let it escape? He immediately raised his hand and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!" A ball of flame spurted out and the bullet accurately hit the pheasant's head.

There was no room for struggle at all, and the pheasant fell headfirst to the ground.

When I walked over to take a look, I saw that the pheasant's head had been rotten, but it looked quite large. When I picked it up and weighed it, it seemed to weigh about six or seven pounds.

These days, a pheasant weighing six or seven pounds is definitely considered large.

And he was able to shoot the pheasant down with one shot in the head. It seems that this god-level hunter skill is not an exaggeration.

Yang Chong happily stuffed the pheasant into his personal space and continued looking for prey.

With the experience of successfully killing his first prey, he became more confident in himself.

In less than an hour, he successfully found three pheasants and two rabbits and killed them one by one.

It was only noon, and his space was already filled with six prey.

Chapter 15: Go home often

It was already noon, and Yang Chong was not in a hurry to continue looking for prey. Instead, he sat down on the spot, took out the lunch box from the cloth bag and started eating.

He was eating happily when he suddenly stopped, slowly put down the chopsticks and lunch box in his hands, and grabbed the shotgun beside him with one hand.

He suddenly felt that a powerful threat was slowly approaching him.

Without hesitation, he jumped up and turned around after grabbing the shotgun.

He saw a black wild boar standing about ten meters behind him, staring at him.

The two fangs are extremely terrifying.

Seeing that Yang Chong had discovered it, the wild boar grunted and rushed over with its head lowered.

Yang Chong didn't think twice and pulled the trigger in his hand repeatedly, and several gunshots went off.

The wild boar had thick skin and flesh, and even though it was shot several times, it did not fall down, and it continued to stagger towards him.

Seeing the wild boar rushing towards him, Yang Chong quickly dodged and punched the wild boar in the eye.

The punch was so powerful that the wild boar's huge body fell to the ground. It lay on the ground and kicked its legs a few times before it died.

Only then did Yang Chong realize that his back was soaked.

It seems that I underestimated the danger. Fortunately, after my body was modified, my strength and speed are far beyond that of ordinary people, otherwise I would have been in danger just now.

If the wild boar rushed forward one more step, he would probably be pierced by its fangs.

I kicked the wild boar, but it didn't move at all. It looked like it was dead.

He then breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground, catching his breath for a long time.

Then he grabbed the unfinished lunch box, finished the meal in a few bites, and then stood up.

Just throw the wild boar's body into the space and continue looking for prey.

With the god-level hunter skills, one can sense the traces of prey, making it exceptionally easy to find and kill prey.

By around two o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Chong had already killed more than a dozen rabbits and five or six pheasants.

Adding the morning’s harvest and the big wild boar, today can be said to be a very fruitful day.

Seeing that it was getting late, he carried his hunting rifle and started back to the village.

On the way, he took out three rabbits and hung them on the gun barrel, and kept the others in the space to avoid others seeing them and getting jealous.

Even so, on the way down the mountain, they met several people who had also gone into the mountains to hunt. They all had gained nothing, but when they saw that Yang Chong had actually caught three wild rabbits, their faces were filled with envy and jealousy.

Before reaching the door of Yang Laochuan's house, he saw a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old standing at the door and looking over here from afar. When she saw Yang Chong, she immediately ran over excitedly.

"Brother Xiao Chong, are you really back? I thought my father was lying to me." The girl ran up to Yang Chong and said excitedly while hugging his arm.

This is Yang Laochuan’s only daughter, Yang Xiaojuan, who is six years younger than Yang Chong. When she was little, she liked to follow Yang Chong around and play. The two were as close as real siblings.

Yang Chong was also happy to see Yang Xiaojuan. He hadn't seen her for a few years. Xiaojuan had grown a lot taller, but due to lack of nutrition, she was as thin as a bamboo pole, with no trace of paleness on her face.

But it's not just her. These days, even people in the city can't get enough to eat, and people in the countryside are lucky enough to be able to survive.

"Juan'er, you've grown so tall, why don't you go to school?" Yang Chong asked happily.

Yang Xiaojuan's face darkened and she pouted, "Now I can't even eat enough, how can I have the energy to go to school? People my age in our village don't go to school anymore."

It’s all because of this disaster!

Yang Chong felt a little heavy.

Yang Xiaojuan glanced over his shoulder and immediately said in surprise: "Brother Xiao Chong, you are so amazing that you actually caught three rabbits?! They say that all the rabbits and pheasants on the mountain have been killed. No one has caught a rabbit for many days. You actually caught three in one day. You are amazing. You really deserve to be my brother Xiao Chong."

Yang Chong smiled and put his arm around Yang Xiaojuan's shoulders: "Come on, let's go in quickly."

As soon as she entered the door, Yang Xiaojuan shouted excitedly: "Dad, Mom! Look, Brother Xiao Chong is so powerful, he caught three rabbits!"

Yang Laochuan and his wife He Shuying came out of the house in a hurry. Seeing the two people and the rabbits in their hands, they were all surprised: "Really? Chongzi, you are really good! Others can't find a rabbit in a day, but you caught three. Won't they be jealous?"

Yang Chong smiled and said, "I'm lucky, and your hunting rifle is also very useful."
