Reborn at 80: From Village Scoundrel to Billionaire

Late at night,

The mother, Zhao Da'e, had already fallen asleep with her three children, all crammed into one bed.

Su Yuehe had also finished showering early, entered her room, closed the door, and never came out again.

Zhao Chunyan also closed the window.

But she kept her ear pressed against the door, eavesdropping on the sounds outside.

After finishing the last task, Lin Wanqiu quickly took a shower in the bathroom before entering the room.

"Squeak~"

She had just pushed the door open and was about to close it when Liu Bei burst in.

He was killing too hastily and bumped into Lin Wanqiu's chest.

"Ah~"

Lin Wanqiu was so frightened that she opened her mouth to scream, but Liu Bei quickly covered it.

Shh! It's me!

Liu Bei reminded Lin Wanqiu and slowly closed the door.

Lin Wanqiu: "..."

This guy's started using sneak attacks; he's got a lot of tricks up his sleeve.

But—

She glanced at Zhao Chunyan next door out of the corner of her eye, feeling very happy.

"Liu Bei!" Lin Wanqiu said softly, "Why did you come to my room? Why didn't you go to Yuehe's room?"

"Because I like you the most!" Liu Bei answered without hesitation.

"Are you serious?" Lin Wanqiu was overjoyed to hear this.

"Hmm..." Liu Bei paused, carefully examining Lin Wanqiu, noticing that she possessed an even more ethereal beauty in the darkness. "Yes, that's right!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqiu remained silent, burying her face deeply in Liu Bei's arms.

Liu Bei held her, and his hands began to wander.

"Be quiet...don't disturb the neighbors..."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"

A short while later, the bed frame began to creak and groan.

……

"Giggle~"

The next day, before dawn, the village roosters began to crow again.

"Liu Bei, it's almost dawn, get up quickly!"

Upon hearing the rooster crow, Lin Wanqiu, who was sleeping soundly, immediately woke up and nudged Liu Bei.

"What's wrong? You want more? Wanqiu, my back is so sore, let me rest a bit more!" Liu Bei said and then closed his eyes again.

The bed creaked for too long last night, and he hasn't recovered his strength yet; he wants to sleep a little longer.

Lin Wanqiu: "..."

This guy is such a lazybones.

"It's almost dawn. Don't sleep anymore. If you sleep any longer, Yuehe and Chunyan will wake up soon!"

really,

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei sat up abruptly.

"What did you say? It's almost dawn?"

"Um!"

Why didn't you say so sooner?

Liu Bei hurriedly got out of bed, grabbed his shoes and clothes, and quietly ran to the door. He opened a crack, peeked out, glanced around, nodded to Lin Wanqiu, and then quickly left.

"This guy's acting like a spy!"

Shaking her head, Lin Wanqiu touched the bed frame. "Looks like we'll have to make it thicker, otherwise it might break!"

……

After half an hour,

Liu Bei is eating.

Zhao Chunyan came over. "Liu Bei, the grasshopper sauce is ready. We can take it to town to sell now."

"Okay. Let's go together after I finish eating!" Liu Bei glanced at the grasshopper sauce in Zhao Chunyan's hand.

"Liu Bei, where are you planning to... where are you planning to sell it?" Su Yuehe asked with some concern.

"I remember there was a machine processing plant in town. I heard there were more than 300 workers there. With so many people, they must need to eat lunch."

"With so many people, the food in the factory can't be very good. Many workers will definitely go out to buy food to eat better!"

"Let's set up a stall there! I'm sure business will be good!"

"Why not go to the market?" Zhao Chunyan asked, puzzled.

"The market is too close to the supply and marketing cooperative. If we sell there, the people there will find out very quickly. They'll definitely cause trouble then. Rather than letting them ruin our business, we should avoid their notice and choose a less popular spot to sell in."

"That makes sense! I agree!" Lin Wanqiu was the first to agree.

Zhao Chunyan glanced at Lin Wanqiu, "You had your fun last night, of course I agreed! But I didn't sleep a wink all night."

"Yes. I agree too!" Just as Zhao Chunyan was about to cause trouble, Su Yuehe suddenly spoke up in support.

"Huh?" Zhao Chunyan suddenly turned her head and looked at him, her face full of disbelief.

She was certain that Su Yuehe had overheard what Liu Bei and Lin Wanqiu had done last night.

Logically speaking, shouldn't Su Yuehe be on the same side as him?

"Yuehe, wouldn't you like to reconsider?"

"What are you considering?" Su Yuehe asked seriously. "I think Liu Bei has a good point. Selling them at the machinery factory should do good business!"

Zhao Chunyan: "..."

Their eyebrows were practically pointing skyward.

"Yes. I think it's feasible too!" Zhao Da'e immediately chimed in with her support.

Zhao Chunyan: "..."

Is this is isolating her?

Damn it!

"Fine. Let's go to the machine factory. I want to see if it really sells well!"

"What if they don't sell well?" Zhao Chunyan frowned. "Wouldn't that be a wasted trip?"

"If it doesn't sell well, I'll give you a leg massage when we get back! Is that alright?" Liu Bei promised.

Lin Wanqiu raised an eyebrow.

Su Yuehe pursed her lips.

Zhao Da'e was naturally happy to see her three daughters-in-law vying for her affections.

really.

Zhao Chunyan's eyes lit up after hearing this. "Okay. You said it yourself, so you can't go back on your word!"

"I will never go back on my word!" Liu Bei nodded.

"What are you dawdling for? Hurry up and finish breakfast and let's go!" Zhao Chunyan wished she could lie on the bed immediately, stretch out her legs, and let Liu Bei give her a comfortable massage, to be a real woman and a man. She urged Liu Bei to eat breakfast.

"We've eaten enough. Making money is the priority, I'm not eating anymore." Liu Bei stood up. "Mom, you stay home and look after the three children!"

"Okay!" Zhao Da'e nodded slightly.

"Chunyan, are you taking a tricycle, or—"

Before Liu Bei could finish speaking, Zhao Chunyan ran to get her bicycle and pushed it out of the yard.

Fearing that if they were a step too slow, Lin Wanqiu and Su Yuehe would snatch the bicycle away.

Liu Bei: "..."

Is she going to treat the bicycle as Zhao Chunyan's personal vehicle?

Soon, Zhao Chunyan got into the car and sped off.

The car was going faster than an Olympic sprinter in the 100 meters; in the blink of an eye, its silhouette blurred.

"Chunyan, slow down! Don't go too fast, or you'll fall!"

"I'm willing! What's it to you?" Zhao Chunyan's voice echoed in the air.

Liu Bei: "..."

He shook his head, looked at Lin Wanqiu and Su Yuehe, and said, "I won't follow her example. I'll ride slowly. Slower is more comfortable. It'll be more comfortable for you two to ride too!"

"Okay. Don't go fast, just ride slowly!" Lin Wanqiu nodded in agreement.

"Okay!" Liu Bei pushed the pedicab out, and Lin Wanqiu and Su Yuehe put grasshopper sauce, salt and pepper grasshoppers, and fried grasshoppers on the back of the pedicab respectively.

"Get in the car!" After getting into the car, Liu Bei looked back at his two ex-wives.

"Um!"

Nodding, Lin Wanqiu and Su Yuehe got into the car and sat down facing each other.

"Hold on tight!"

"good!"

"Swish swish~"

The next moment, Liu Bei pedaled his pedicab, carrying his two ex-wives, and sped off towards town.

He rode very, very slowly the whole way.

Lin Wanqiu and Su Yuehe were sitting very comfortably...
