Reborn at 80: From Village Scoundrel to Billionaire

"Thank you all for your kind intentions. However, my heart can only hold three women: Wanqiu, Yuehe, and Chunyan. I'm sorry!"

"Oh! What a pity!"

"That's such a pity!"

"I really envy those three girls!"

……

Upon hearing this, everyone expressed their regret, sighed, and shook their heads.

Fan Ha'er immediately thumped his chest loudly and volunteered, "My brother Bei doesn't want her. I do! In our Fan family village, besides my brother Bei, I'm the best hunter. You can marry your daughters to me. I, Fan Ha'er, guarantee that as long as you marry your daughters to me, I... I'll treat her like royalty every day."

"..."

"What? You don't believe me? I can swear to God!" Seeing everyone remain silent, Fan Ha'er became anxious and raised his hand. "I, Fan Ha'er, swear before the mountain god that if I don't treat my wife like an ancestor, may I be bitten to death by a wild beast while hunting!"

"..."

"You still don't believe me?" Seeing that no one reacted, Fan Ha'er immediately continued, "Besides treating my wife like royalty, I also have... my parents serve her! Yes, I have my parents serve her. If my parents refuse, when they fight in bed at night, I... I'll rush in and break them up. I won't let them fight!"

"..."

As soon as this word comes out,

At this moment, everyone was not only silent, but all their eyes were fixed on Fan Ha'er's father, Fan Shuanzhu.

Fan Shuanzhu was so angry he was about to explode.

That son of a bitch is incredibly stupid! He deserves a beating! He deserves a good beating!

"Snap!"

In a fit of rage, he slapped Fan Ha'er hard on the back of the head.

"Dad, why did you hit me? Did I say something wrong?"

"What do you think? I'm your father, and your mother is your mother. You brat, you actually expect your mother and me to treat your wife like royalty? What are you trying to do? Rebel? Get over here right now!" Fan Shuanzhu raised his hand to slap her again.

"Whoosh~"

Fan Ha'er dodged in time.

"You brat, you dare to hide? Get over here now. Let me give you a beating!" Fan Shuanzhu was furious after missing his target with a slap.

"I'm not stupid... uh, no, I am stupid. But even if I'm stupid, I'm not stupid enough to let you hit me. It hurts! I'm not going, I'm not going!"

"Are you trying to drive me crazy, you brat? Come here!"

"No! I won't!"

"If you don't come over soon, you can forget about getting married!"

"Fine, I won't marry you then. At worst... I'll just become someone else's live-in son-in-law!"

"Pfft~"

Everyone burst out laughing when he said that.

"Haha... Shuanzhu, your silly son is really funny, haha..."

"Shuanzhu, if you ask me, your son isn't stupid at all. What he has is called great wisdom... what's that?"

"Great wisdom appears as foolishness!"

"Yes, that's what it means to appear foolish but actually be wise! Don't be reckless and actually turn his 'foolish wisdom' into genuine stupidity. Then you'll regret it!"

"Yes, yes, don't be confused!"

……

really,

Hearing this, Fan Shuanzhu's expression improved slightly.

He paused, glanced at the group of people trying to persuade him, and forced a smile. "That makes sense. Then I won't fight. But since you all say my son isn't stupid, but rather wise in disguise, would you be willing to marry your daughters to my son?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the scene fell silent.

"Why are you all so quiet? Are you going to agree or not?" Fan Shuan asked.

"Uh, um... I just remembered, my baby still needs milk, I have to go back now. Otherwise, the baby will go hungry!"

"You're a man. Your baby needs milk. What business is it of yours? Can you even provide food?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the man ran even faster.

"What about you, do you want to...?" Fan Shuanzhu glanced at another person.

"Uh...uh...well, my daughter is only seventeen, she's too young, too young, it's not suitable!"

"Seventeen? That's alright. He'll be eighteen in another year, right? My son can wait!"

"..."

After a moment of stunned silence, the person turned and ran.

Turning his gaze away, Fan Shuanzhu glanced at someone.

"Why...why are you looking at me like that? My cousin's daughter...she's about to take the college entrance exam, and she'll likely become a college student. It's not appropriate..."

"Oh, so you want to be a chosen one of heaven? No problem, just think of it as a princess marrying down!"

"Ah? This...this..." As they were speaking, another person ran away.

"And you—"

"Old Fan, my sister-in-law is a full three years older than your son, it's even more inappropriate!"

"Three years older? There's an old saying that a woman three years older brings good fortune, right? This couldn't be more perfect. Why don't you marry your sister-in-law to us?"

"...Uh...this..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man pushed through the crowd and ran away.

"As for you—"

"Whoosh~"

Before he could finish speaking, they all ran away one after another.

Soon, a third of the crowd had disappeared.

Seeing this, Fan Shuanzhu glanced at Fan Ha'er, "You brat, now you understand, right?"

"I...I..."

As Fan Ha'er was speaking, he immediately squatted down on the ground and started crying.

All he wants is to find a wife like Brother Bei and have a bunch of kids to play with, right?

Why is it so difficult?

One by one, they all disagreed because he was considered an idiot.

Why?

Does being a fool really mean you don't deserve to get married?

"Snap!"

But at that moment, Fan Shuanzhu strode up to Fan Ha'er and slapped him hard across the face again.

"Why are you crying?"

Where did your smugness go?

"What are you still squatting on the ground for? Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough? Get up right now!"

"Father, I...I..."

"Snap!"

Fan Shuanzhu slapped him again. "What do you mean, 'what am I'? I am what I am. What kind of person are you, squatting on the ground crying? You'll only make others look down on you more. If you're still my son, get up right now. Don't you dare embarrass me again!"

"Waaah~"

Upon hearing this, Fan Ha'er not only did not stop crying, but cried even harder.

"You...you brat, are you trying to drive me crazy?"

Fan Shuan was so angry he couldn't vent his anger, so he raised his hand as if to strike down.

"Uncle Shuanzhu!"

Just then, Liu Bei stepped forward and pulled Fan Shuan aside.

"Don't be angry, let me do it!"

After stopping Fan Shuan, Liu Bei squatted down next to Fan Ha'er.

Have you ever heard this saying?

"Brother Bei, what is it? Tell me! I'm listening!"

Fan Ha'er nodded while crying.

"A man doesn't easily shed tears!"

"Never heard of it!"

"Now you hear me!" Liu Bei continued, "We are men. As a man, there are only two kinds of lives. One, you either stand tall and be admired by thousands; two, you are a coward, living a mediocre life, despised and looked down upon by the world, and finally die like a little insect, with no one even knowing!"

Which of these two options do you want to do?
