Reborn in 78, I made my fortune by working in the mountains, supporting three families on my own.

"I'm telling the truth, okay?"

"Little brother, you're still young, you don't understand the complexities of human nature. Haven't I been fooled by him enough times? Even my little sisters Xinyue and Wanqing have been deceived by him many times!" Qin Yuchan rolled her eyes at Qin Bowen and stopped talking.

Jiang Xinyue maintained a polite smile throughout.

This was his first time visiting the Qin family.

After all, it's her family's home, but what about him?

Her family was public enemy number one, labeled as capitalists!

Therefore, Jiang Xinyue and Qin Yuchan are completely different.

She had no support, no one to rely on, and no family to back her up.

She has always given silently and endured everything in this family...

Therefore, she had become accustomed to silence and a forced smile.

Faced with Qin Yuchan's sudden mention, she simply nodded slightly and then focused on feeding the three children.

Just then, Chen Xiumei, the mother-in-law who had been silent until now, suddenly looked at Jiang Xinyue and said gently:

"Hmm...Xinyue, can Aunt Chen call you that?"

Jiang Xinyue was flattered and quickly nodded, "Yes, Auntie."

Chen Xiumei: "Xinyue, Aunt Chen wants to ask you, do you want to remarry Zhao Lei?"

With a thunderous boom, these words struck like a bolt from the blue, leaving all the adults present speechless.

Qin Bowen broke out in a cold sweat.

I thought to myself, "Oh no, what does my mom mean by this?"

I was wondering why things were so strange today. I've never invited Aunt Xinyue over for dinner before, so why did I call her today?

My brother-in-law is really something else. He married three wives, all of whom were incredibly beautiful, but they all ended up divorcing him.

Although Qin Bowen did not understand, he expressed his respect.

In his heart, Zhao Lei was his true brother-in-law.

His mother's question today was a bit inappropriate, considering his second sister was still here.

Another sister-in-law, Wanqing, didn't come. If all three of them were here, what if his ex-wife's mother-in-law asked him if he wanted to remarry?

Isn't this a complete chaotic scene?

Qin Dashan was also embarrassed and looked at his wife in dismay.

Both of them were experienced married people, and they immediately understood what their mothers meant.

So today's meal was a test to see if Zhao Lei was willing to remarry?

For Qin Dashan, this was both a good thing and a very bad thing.

The good thing is that his own parents asked this question, which means that his parents have changed their opinion on Zhao Lei's mistakes and are planning to accept him back into the family.

The problem now is that Zhao Lei has two ex-wives!

Which one to choose? Which one should I pick?

If you choose one, what about the other two?

Qin Dashan's head ached whenever he thought about it, so he simply buried his head in his wine and tried to stop thinking about it.

Sure enough, Zhao Lei also felt a chill run down his spine.

I go!

What does my mother-in-law mean by this?

Today really was a trap!

Remarriage?

Zhao Lei hadn't really thought about remarrying, because he felt that his current life was pretty good.

He can take care of all three ex-wives and three children.

But if he remarries one of them, then the other two will definitely be the subject of more gossip.

Isn't this going to break up their family?

Chen Xiumei: "Xinyue, don't be afraid. I know your family's situation is special, but you've done nothing wrong."

"You don't have any family on your mother's side in our Tuanjie Township, so your Uncle Qin and I are practically family to you. If you have anything on your mind, just speak up. We, the old folks, will stand up for you."

Qin Yuchan didn't have such thoughts. Hearing that her parents wanted to support her poor younger sister, she immediately chimed in:

"Yes, sister, we are your family. Don't think that you have nowhere to go without Zhao Lei. Our Qin family is your family."

Jiang Xinyue saw that the Qin family members were sincere.

It made her feel the warmth of a family.

But she absolutely could not answer the question of whether she wanted to remarry Zhao Lei.

If he says he wants to, what will Qin Yuchan do?

What did the Qin family do then?

If you don't want to, then what position should you be in?

Jiang Xinyue was well-informed from a young age, often accompanying her parents in business, and was thoughtful and composed.

She considered things further and more thoroughly than anyone else.

She simply remained silent.

Seeing this, Zhao Lei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly signaled to Qin Bowen with his eyes.

Qin Bowen, being quick-witted, immediately stood up, grabbed Zhao Lei, and dragged him outside.

"Brother-in-law, let's go, let's strike while the iron is hot and sell the extra pork to the supply and marketing cooperative. We can't eat all this meat in a short time, and we don't have enough salt at home to cure it, so it's safer to sell it."

Looking at Qin Bowen's handsome face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, Zhao Lei felt extremely comfortable!

That looks so pleasing to the eye!

In my heart, I gave my brother-in-law a thumbs up: My good brother-in-law, thank you for saving the day! It turns out my brother-in-law's love for you wasn't for nothing...

Thinking this to himself, he quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, that makes sense. Come on, let's go now. The meat won't be fresh if it's left out for too long, and we won't get a good price for it."

So the two of them hurriedly said goodbye to Qin Mancang, Chen Xiumei and the others, and slipped out.

In an effort to impress, Zhao Lei even picked out a whole basket of meat himself.

Carrying a hundred or so pounds of meat didn't hinder his steps at all; on the contrary, he strode out of the yard with great speed.

Seeing Zhao Lei and Qin Bowen rush out, Qin Mancang understood and sighed.

He urged everyone to continue eating and changed the subject.

Only then did Jiang Xinyue breathe a sigh of relief and continue eating with her child in silence.

Qin Bowen and Zhao Lei left the Qin family.

Zhao Lei was filled with mixed feelings, and the way he looked at Qin Bowen changed.

Good brother-in-law, your move is comparable to Fan Kuai saving Liu Bang at the Feast at Hongmen!

A stroke of genius!!!

The two went back to Zhao Lei's house, leaving behind 30 to 40 jin of the other half of the wild boar meat, and also took out the remaining 100 jin or so to sell for money.

There was a shortage of supplies in 1978.

Domestic pigs were generally the common property of the production brigade, and were only slaughtered and sold at specific times, and meat coupons were required to purchase them in limited quantities.

Therefore, there is no worry about selling pork.

In particular, the wild boar that Zhao Lei hunted was a premium wild boar meat.

At the time, it was about one yuan per jin (500 grams), and the fat boss of the supply and marketing cooperative bought it all, for a total of 222.58 yuan.

Zhao Lei gave Qin Bowen 110 yuan, but Qin Bowen refused to accept it. Zhao Lei then forced it into his pocket.

"Listen to Bowen, you have to take this money. It's for your half of the pig."

"Oh, brother-in-law, how can I accept this? Our family isn't short of money right now, and you still have to take care of your nephews and nieces. You should keep it; besides, you were the one who hunted the wild boar!"

Zhao Lei: "Why are you being so formal? Are you being formal with me?"

"You were just saying we're family, that we share joys and sorrows, so stop with the nonsense, here you go!"
