Back to 78: My Leisurely Country Life

Chapter 1



"I've already told you that our Qiangwa can't do hard work, but you insisted on making him suffer this hardship. If anything happens to him, I won't live anymore!"

"Mom, I just asked him to help out, I think he was just pretending! We stay in the sun every day, how come we don’t get heat stroke?"

"I don't care! Anyway, don't let him get out of bed after he wakes up!"

"Mom! You are harming him by spoiling him like this. This bastard is already 22 years old, and the child is already three years old. He has never suffered from hardship since he was a child. Who will take care of him when I am old and can no longer work? The children in the families of the eldest and second brothers all have to work, but you spoil him. Now the whole family is very dissatisfied with him. You can still protect him now, but what about in the future?"

"From now on, it will be your business. If you can't protect your child, then it's your fault as an incompetent father!"

""Mom, you are being unreasonable! I won't say any more. I'm going to work!"

He Qiang was awakened by the noise, his eyes full of confusion.

His head was a mess at the moment, as if he had a hangover.

He struggled to sit up, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"Huh!? This is……"

Looking at the simple furnishings in the room, memories came to his mind, and He Qiang recognized that this was the adobe house of his family when he was young.

Seeing this scene, he was completely stunned.

He put his hand in front of his eyes, looking at the pair of delicate and white hands, and He Qiang hurriedly touched his face.

Hiss!

This elastic face is definitely not his old face over 60!

""Could it be that I was reborn after getting drunk?"

He Qiang murmured to himself while touching his face.

Creaking.

The wooden door was pushed open, and an old lady walked in with a worried look on her face. Seeing that He Qiang was awake, she immediately shouted:

"Xiaohua! Xiaohua! Your man is awake, come here quickly!"

A soft and sticky response came from outside the door:"Here he comes!"

Soon, He Qiang was surrounded by two women.

"

Qiangwaer , how are you? If you feel uncomfortable, tell grandma quickly.

"Grandma, I should be fine, I'm just a little thirsty."

He Qiang looked at his grandmother with a complicated expression, and couldn't help but picked up her hand and pulled her to sit on the bed.

"Grandma, please sit down, don't stand."

Grandma He smiled and rubbed He Qiang's hand and praised:"Our Qiang is so well-behaved, grandma loves you for a good reason."

On the other side, He Qiang's wife Wu Shuhua had come over with a bowl of warm salt water.

After He Qiang took it and took a sip, he almost couldn't hold it.

His wife is so considerate, but he is so ridiculous...

Thinking of his ridiculous behavior when he was young, He Qiang felt ashamed for a while.

He Qiang said with guilt:"Xiaohua, grandma, you don't have to watch over me, I'm basically much better."

Grandma He frowned and scolded:"You fainted, I have to watch you, otherwise I won't be at ease."

Faced with such deep concern, He Qiang made up his mind that he must not let down these people who love him deeply in this moment of rebirth.

""Grandma, I'm really fine. You stay here and take care of me. Who will take care of the kids at my eldest uncle's and second uncle's homes? If anything happens, I'll really become the sinner of our He family!"

He Qiang persuaded Grandma He kindly.

Although Grandma He was extremely partial to He Qiang, they were her descendants after all. She muttered,"The wife of your cousin has hands and feet. They can't take care of her. Why do they have to let an old woman like me take care of her!" How could he say that?

Everyone was working in the fields. He was a lazy man who didn't go to the fields. He caused several cousins to be distracted from taking care of the children and couldn't go to the fields to work. How could he have the face to do that!

He Qiang presented facts and reasoned, and said a lot of good things, and finally persuaded the old lady to leave.

When they reached the door, Grandma He looked back every few steps and reminded Wu Shuhua to take good care of He Qiang.

""Grandma, don't worry and go back. He Qiang is my man. How can I let anything happen to him?"

Wu Shuhua assured softly, and then sent Grandma He back to the old house.

He Qiang, who was lying on the bed, sighed when he saw this.

It can be said without hesitation that he is really a blessed man, but he was just wasted.

Counting his first half of life of laziness, He Qiang can almost be said to be a son of no family.

In the era of the big pot meal, because He Qiang's aunt married the team leader of the production team, he got a very leisurely job of guarding the fish pond. Although the work points were low, he didn't need to do hard work at all.

Even so, He Qiang often went fishing for three days If it weren't for the fact that the villagers looked up to the team leader, a lazy guy like He Qiang wouldn't have thought about getting work points.

Until 1978, contracting was being quietly carried out all over the country. The members of their production team had suffered from the big pot for a long time, so they boldly started to contract the work to each household.

With the help of the team leader's son-in-law and the good relationship with the village cadres, the He family contracted land for the whole family, and now they live a comfortable life.

Except for He Qiang, who is lazy and likes to eat, everyone else is wholeheartedly working in the soil.

After all, the harvest season is coming.

"He Qiang, is it okay for you to stay at home and rest today?"

While he was thinking, Wu Shuhua had already come to him.

Looking at his wife's thin and pretty face, He Qiang's heart twitched.

Wu Shuhua herself is the daughter of an intellectual in the city. She came to their Gunziwan as an educated youth who went to the countryside.

At the beginning, when He Qiang fell in love with Wu Shuhua, the whole family was very opposed to it, thinking that this little girl was delicate and tender, and she couldn't lift anything, and she was not someone who could make a living.

But He Qiang was also a civilized lazy guy in the surrounding area, and he fell in love with Wu Shuhua's bookish air and stubborn eyes, and he relied on sweet words to coax her into his heart.

In the end, He Qiang persuaded Mrs. He to marry this beauty into the family.

But Wu Shuhua also���She was a hardworking daughter -in-law. After she came into the house, she not only took care of the housework, but also took on the work that He Qiang was supposed to do without complaint.

But even with such a perfect daughter-in-law, He Qiang still had no plans to live a good life. He was still idle until his father-in-law completely turned over a new leaf and took the mother and daughter back home. Only then did he regret it.

But it was too late.

His miserable old age was all his own fault...

But fortunately, he still had a chance to make up for it.

Now it's not too late to start over again.

After his rebirth, He Qiang hasn't even had time to say a word to his wife until now.

He Qiang had thousands of words in his heart that he wanted to tell Wu Shuhua, but when he got to his lips, he only trembled and said three words:

"You've lost weight."

Wu Shuhua looked surprised, but finally shook her head and whispered,"It's been hot lately, and my appetite is poor."

Seeing Wu Shuhua defending her face like this, He Qiang felt that his heart was filled with her.
