Back to 1984: Hunting in the Mountains

Of course, Yu Qiutang was unable to fully explain to Wu Meifen his understanding of the future.

But Wu Meifen is such a powerful person.

The difference between powerful people and ordinary people is that they tend to be very sensitive to the essence and development trends of things, and use the trends to their own benefit.

She had not thought of it before, but after Yu Qiutang's gentle hint, her brain immediately started working.

He talked to Yu Qiutang for a long time, and finally tapped his fingers somewhere.

"It looks like this location will be a treasure trove in the future."

Yu Qiutang saw that her finger landed on the place where the town government was located in the previous life. He couldn't help but admire her in his heart, but still reminded her: "Since it is a treasure land, you'd better not touch it."

"?"

Wu Meifen looked at him in confusion.

"Think about it, in our environment, who will end up with the treasure land? What do you need, the treasure land or the profit?"

Wu Meifen's eyes lit up again.

Naturally, he understood what Yu Qiutang meant, and gently drew a circle around the original position with his fingers.

Yu Qiutang then nodded.

That's what I mean.

The best places definitely belong to others, but the areas surrounding these places will surely develop well in the future, so we just need to take over these places.

There is no need to snatch food from the tiger's mouth.

After all, ordinary people just want to fill their stomachs, and they don’t necessarily want the meat in the tiger’s mouth.

After that, Yu Qiutang asked about the bracelet.

Wu Meifen slapped her head and said, "Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. I packed the things for you, but they are at my house. I didn't bring them to you. How about I get them for you now?"

Yu Qiutang was not polite and said with a smile: "Originally it's not urgent, but my second sister is going back tomorrow, so I thought before leaving..."

"I know, I know what you mean."

Wu Meifen stood up with a smile, "I'm going to get my motorcycle repaired, can you take me back?"

"Okay."

The two went out and soon returned to Wu Meifen's home.

After entering, I saw the old lady I saw last time sitting under the eaves basking in the sun. When she heard someone coming back, she opened her eyes, then closed them again.

"that whoever……"

"He went to his aunt's house."

"Oh."

The two men entered the room. Yu Qiutang didn't realize at first, but when he entered, he found that it was someone else's bedroom and quickly backed out.

"It's troublesome."

"Come in, don't be polite. There are no tigers or insects in my room."

Yu Qiutang still didn't go in.

Waiting for Wu Meifen to take out the things, several boxes.

"Then let's go to the living room. Actually, there's only one bed in my bedroom. It's nothing special. You see, I don't look like a feminine person."

Wu Meifen walked in front, laughing at herself.

Yu Qiutang said: "That's not true. It doesn't mean that being feminine means staying at home, dressing up beautifully, taking care of your husband and children, having your own ideals, and devoting yourself to your career. Can anyone say that you are not a woman?"

Wu Meifen stood at the door of the living room, turned around and smiled at him.

"I like what you said. It's true that women hold up half the sky, but there are always many people who are short-sighted and look down on us women.

Then I thought, the more you look down on me, the more I want to make a career. I not only want to make money, but I want to make a lot of money, more than any of you.

I'll see who dares to gossip about me, and I'll have to hold them all in."

Yu Qiutang smiled, followed him in and sat down on the sofa.

“That’s what I said, but the premise is that people have to be happy. Sister Meifen, if you can be happy by making money and developing your career, then work hard and make it bigger and stronger. If you feel tired, you don’t have to work too hard.

As a human being, as long as you live in this world, you will always be commented on by others. It is either good or bad. Some people understand you, while there are also many people who dislike you.

If you keep everyone's thoughts in your heart, wouldn't that be too tiring? How can you live comfortably in your life?"

Wu Meifen smiled and said, "You are really good at talking. Are you worried about your sister coming?"

Yu Qiutang rarely made a joke, "Of course, Sister Meifen is so good to me. If you get sick from exhaustion, I'm afraid you won't be able to find such a good sister again."

"Haha~"

Wu Meifen was very happy.

I was worried that Yu Qiutang was in a bad mood before, so I was careful with my words, but now he has fully recovered.

"Come, look at your stuff."

Wu Meifen opened several boxes one by one.

"According to your request, I made a complete set for your sister. Take a look, a bracelet, a pair of earrings, a ring, and this necklace.

There are three more bracelets here, which are made separately, and the weight is basically the same as the data you provided.

Don't worry about the master I found. He will definitely be of good quality and his skills are naturally top-notch. He is a well-known figure in the whole province."

Yu Qiutang looked through the items one by one and was very satisfied.

Just as Wu Meifen said, these things are made very delicately and you can tell at first glance that they were made by very skilled craftsmen.

Perhaps only someone like Wu Meifen could recognize such a master. If it were him, even if he had gold, he would not be able to find anyone to entrust his work to.

Wu Meifen pushed over the last box.

"this……?"

Yu Qiutang looked at her in confusion.

"open to take a look."

Yu Qiutang opened it with doubt, and his eyes suddenly lit up. It turned out that there was a pair of gold watches in the box.

This is a real gold watch.

The case and bracelet are all replaced with gold, which is so luxurious.

“This…what is this?”

He quickly closed the box, this thing was extremely valuable.

"This is my wedding gift to you."

“That won’t work!”

Yu Qiutang quickly pushed the item over and shook his head: "This item is too valuable. I can't take it."

"Hey, why are you suddenly so polite, sister?"

Yu Qiutang still shook his head, "Sister Meifen, this is not an ordinary thing, you should keep it. I really can't take it."

"Take it!"

Wu Meifen pushed the box over again and said with a smile: "You can keep this as a wedding token. I think the price of gold will definitely increase in a few years.

The craftsmanship is very sophisticated. You can save it. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, at least it can solve the urgent problem. "

"But this is too..."

"It must be worth some money, otherwise I wouldn't be able to afford it. It's not a wedding gift for my brother, I can't just give it casually.

You are a grown man, but why can't you let go of these things?

The things that can be bought with money are actually not the most valuable.

I told you, this is to leave a guarantee for your future life, what if you need it?

Qiutang, I am very good at judging people. You have a very upright personality. Our society actually doesn't tolerate people like you.

I'm worried that you'll suffer in the future, or run into trouble that you won't be able to get over.

As for me, you look good now, but this is only temporary.

You may not understand things like doing business, but I know very well that as long as all the money is not withdrawn and as long as the business is still maintained, it is possible for it to collapse.

What if I have nothing left by then? I won’t be able to help you even if I want to, right? "

"I can't say for sure what my future will be like, but if there is a problem, it's my fate. How can I let Sister Meifen cover it? Besides, we are just..."

Wu Meifen's eyes widened. "Just what? Just ordinary friends, right?"

"no!"

Yu Qiutang immediately shook his head.

Seeing his resolute look, Wu Meifen was amused instead, and then she said earnestly: "Take the things and save them. If you are lucky and nothing happens to you, then you can keep them as a treasure at the bottom of your box. It won't be a big deal, right?"

"sister……"

"Please stop nagging me. I don't like nagging. I've heard it all. If you take money too seriously, you're wrong.

What can money buy?

What about love?
Is it healthy?
Or conscience? "

Yu Qiutang was speechless.

He heard the sudden desolation in Wu Meifen's tone and found it difficult to refute anything further.

"You know, when he was still alive, we didn't have much money at first, but when we became rich, we thought we could finally live a good life, but we didn't expect that he would pass away so early.

Guess what happened over the years.

There are rumors about me everywhere, maybe you have heard them.

What? I caught him having an affair with the waitress.

What? He has several illegitimate children out there...

Anyway, I'm young and without a man, and I'm guarding a lot of money, so I'm bound to be surrounded by all kinds of rumors.

They just want to knock me down, step on my corpse, and tear my tendons and bones out.

But I just don't want to.

I am rich, but if you try to use those evil means, don't even think about taking a penny from me.

No matter how much money I have, I am willing to buy desks and chairs for the school, build bridges for the village, and deliver flour and coal briquettes to the welfare home. I will not let my money be taken away easily.

right.

Qiutang, you also saw his photo last time and knew that you two have similar features.

But you may not understand what that similarity is.

I am saying this from the bottom of my heart today: that is the integrity and kindness in your bones.

People's appearance is determined by their hearts.

A child of a few years old may have a natural look, but after growing up for another ten or twenty years, it becomes acquired.

I have been in the business world for so long and have seen all kinds of smart people, but only in you can I see a little bit of compassion that others have.

Just like now, you seem to be smiling, but actually you are not particularly free inside. The fatigue that comes from the bottom of your heart has spread to your eyebrows.

So I always think that you are not truly happy.

The cloud of sorrow that shrouds your consciousness is very thick and cannot be blown away by just a gust of wind.

To be honest, I feel sorry for you.

Seeing you is like seeing him twenty years ago. He was just like you back then, with a lot of contradictions about the world in his heart. It took me a long time to dispel his fog, but I didn’t expect…”

Wu Meifen suddenly came to her senses and found that she had said a lot of things unconsciously, and she was shocked.

She found that every time she chatted with Yu Qiutang, she could always open up and unconsciously say a lot of her innermost thoughts. In front of Yu Qiutang, she was completely unguarded.

The young man in front of me has this magical power to calm people down.

"Okay, Sister Meifen, I'll take it. If you keep talking, I'll feel like I've committed a grave sin."

Wu Meifen calmed down and smiled, "It should have been done a long time ago."

Wu Meifen was actually in her late thirties. Yu Qiutang remembered that he didn't think much of her when he first met her.

Business has been good in the past six months, and people have become more fashionable and look younger.

So he smiled and said, "Sister Meifen, you are still young, why don't you think about..."

"Stop!"

Wu Meifen closed the box again and pushed it all to Yu Qiutang.

"How dare you get married when you are like me?"

Yu Qiutang thought that she might be worried that her millions of dollars of assets would be divided up by others, and he thought that made sense.

But I heard Wu Meifen say: "Can anyone else take care of my ex-mother-in-law and ex-brother-in-law?"

Yu Qiutang was shocked.

On the way back, he was still thinking about this.

Wu Meifen is truly an excellent woman to the core. She is as tough as steel, yet as gentle as a silken thread.

In the evening, Yu Dejin asked the whole family to go back for dinner.

Yu Qiutang said that the troglodyte courtyard was too crowded, and if it didn't work out, they could just eat here. Anyway, there were still countless steamed buns and many unfinished dishes left after the funeral.

But Yu Dejin said that when they were at home, so many children were able to make it, but it’s not possible now.

There was no choice but to gather in the troglodyte courtyard again.

But Yu Qiutang still brought a lot of dishes back from here, some of which were cooked food and only needed to be heated.

When they ate, they ate on the kang in Yu Dejin's room.

There are actually a lot of people, and they are basically squeezed together. If you don't take the food by the hand, you really can't get any food in your mouth.

Everyone was not used to it at first.

But as I was eating, I thought of my childhood and was suddenly filled with memories.

At the dinner, everyone spoke very carefully, for fear of saying something they shouldn't and becoming sad again.

Fortunately, this worrying thing did not happen until the end of the meal.

After dinner, Chen Meidi cleaned up and her three sisters prepared to help with the washing, but the kitchen was too small to accommodate so many people.

In the end, the second sister was more decisive and excluded the eldest and third sisters.

The third sister took Xiaoyun and Xiaowei to clean up the house and prepare to move in a few days.

Yu Chunxing was about to go to help, but was stopped by Yu Dejin.

"Xing, don't leave yet."

Yu Chunxing pulled her legs back from the kang and asked, "What are you doing, Dad?"

"I have something to tell you."

Seeing this, Yu Qiutang patted the back of Yu Qiushi's head, who was still in a daze, and said, "Come on, help us pack our things."

"No, no, I want to listen to my elder sister."

"Listen to shit."

Yu Qiutang grabbed the clothes on the back of his back and dragged him under the kang. Yu Qiushi was very reluctant but could not withstand Yu Qiutang's strength and could only watch himself being dragged to the door.

"Second brother, you wait too."

"Me?" Yu Qiutang was about to go out, but when he heard this, he sent Yu Qiushi out and said, "Work hard, or don't even think about having a good meal at our house later."

"Let me work while you sit back, is that fair?"

"Why don't you go now?!"

Yu Qiutang pretended to scold him, and Yu Qiushi had no choice but to walk over there muttering.

Here, Yu Qiutang sat back on the kang and watched his father knock the pipe on the railing. After knocking off the remaining ashes, he stared at the pipe for a long while and suddenly asked, "Did your man beat you?" (End of this chapter)
