1968: At the beginning, the beautiful sister-in-law came to borrow food! Chapter 033

“Yunfeng, Yunfeng!”

It was evening, and Li Yunfeng was just getting intimate with his little wife when he heard Shuhua knocking on the window from outside.

“Sister Shuhua, what’s wrong?” Li Yunfeng looked up and asked Shuhua with a puzzled expression.

“Yunfeng, my man passed away.”

“Hurry and come help!”

Upon hearing Shuhua’s voice, Li Yunfeng quickly climbed out of bed. After getting dressed, he grabbed his gun and walked out of the room.

“What happened?”

Shuhua had said before, and so had Donkey and the others, that even though Shuhua’s man wouldn’t live much longer, he should at least make it until the New Year. It was only December now, still more than two months until the New Year.

“Sigh, what else could it be? He was angered to death.”

“When I went back from your place just now, wasn’t I carrying a roasted duck?”

“He asked me if I got it from my lover.”

“His words were so nasty, so I retorted a couple of times.”

“I mentioned how his two brothers would knock on my window in the middle of the night, wanting to sleep with me.”

“And how his younger brother also wished he would die quickly so he could marry me.”

“As soon as I said that, he just dropped dead from anger.”

At this point, Shuhua also seemed a bit helpless. She had originally married her man just to fill her stomach and suffer a little less each day. Who would have thought that right after getting married, her man would be gone, and they hadn’t even consummated their marriage? It hadn’t been long at all before he just left.

“Alright, you stay at home for now. I’ll go find Donkey and the others.”

“When Donkey and the others arrive, then you can go find your in-laws!”

Li Yunfeng followed Shuhua into her house and saw her man lying stiffly on the kang, completely lifeless. Li Yunfeng reached out and tested under the man’s nose. Indeed, there was no sign of life, so he said to Shuhua. Then, he pushed open the door and walked towards Donkey’s house.

It was fine for Shuhua to find Li Yunfeng first in such a situation. After all, they were neighbors, and there was no problem finding Li Yunfeng in the middle of the night if something happened. However, Li Yunfeng couldn’t go find Shuhua’s in-laws; he could only go find Donkey and the others and have them go find Shuhua’s in-laws.

“Brother Donkey, Brother Donkey!”

Arriving at Donkey’s house, Li Yunfeng directly knocked on the window.

“Brother Yunfeng, what’s wrong?” Donkey’s voice came from inside the room.

“Brother Donkey, Sister Shuhua’s man passed away.”

“I came to ask for your help.” Li Yunfeng briefly explained what happened.

“What? He died?”

Hearing Li Yunfeng’s voice, Donkey jumped off the kang in an instant. How to put it, they all liked Shuhua. After all, rural women and college students from the city had completely different temperaments. And whether it was looks or figure, there was a huge gap. Many of them had been hoping Shuhua’s man would die!

“Quick, I’ll take you to find the others!”

Donkey ran out of the room in less than a minute. He took Li Yunfeng to find Iron Egg, Stone, Tiger Cub, Erlengzi, and Iron Pillar. A group of people arrived at Shuhua’s house in less than ten minutes.

“He’s really dead!”

Several people took turns testing under Shuhua’s man’s nose.

“Alright, Brother Yunfeng, you stay here with Sister Shuhua.”

“Iron Pillar, Erlengzi, you two go find Zhao Jianguo’s family.”

“Stone, Tiger Cub, you two go find Zhao Jianguo’s parents.”

“Iron Egg and I will go find his brothers.”

With that, the six of them left Shuhua’s house and headed towards the village. They couldn’t handle this matter. And Zhao Jianguo’s funeral and such would have to be handled by his family. The key was that this matter wouldn’t be over anytime soon. Zhao Jianguo was dead now, but his three brothers were all thinking about Shuhua.

In their area, it was incredibly difficult for a widow to live on her own. Even Old Lady Li only survived because her son and husband were martyrs, and they were martyrs’ dependents. They received special care from the state, with the armed forces department visiting once a month. They were given five-guarantee household status and received a good amount of money each month to survive.

But Shuhua didn’t have this honor. A woman in these deep mountains and old forests basically couldn’t survive. Moreover, this place was a remote area. Even now, let alone a hundred years ago, no one would have managed this place. This led to a man having several wives being common here. Everyone was accustomed to it. Forget this era, even in the 80s and 90s, some people were still trying to become emperors. The traditional concept of polygamy, which had lasted for thousands of years, couldn’t be changed in just twenty years.

So, now that Shuhua’s man had passed away, Shuhua’s fate was also an issue.

“Brother Yunfeng, go call my sister over.”

“Later, I’ll say I’m marrying my sister to you, and I’ll follow my sister.”

“Otherwise, Zhao Jianguo’s family might marry me off to one of their brothers.”

“Take this!”

Hearing Shuhua say this, Li Yunfeng handed her his double-barreled shotgun and bullets. He told her to keep them for self-defense later. In these deep mountains and old forests, female educated youth and later female teachers were very dangerous professions. It was only because he was a man.

Back in Sijiucheng, he had heard female educated youth from the early 1960s say that people in many places would peek at female educated youth bathing. On their territory, you had no say. They had more people and guns. Female educated youth had no right to speak at all.

It was also that Li Yunfeng didn’t rely on their production team for food. If you let me eat, fine; if not, I wouldn’t starve. The key was that Li Yunfeng also had a gun and could fight. They generally wouldn’t offend educated youth from Sijiucheng.

After handing the gun to Shuhua, Li Yunfeng walked towards the female educated youth point. The female educated youth point was less than two hundred meters from Li Yunfeng’s male educated youth point. It took less than two minutes to walk there.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

“Knock, knock, knock!”

“Who is it?”

Arriving at the female educated youth point, as soon as he knocked on the window, Shufen’s voice came from inside.

“Shufen, it’s me, Li Yunfeng.”

“Your sister asked me to call you over. Your sister’s man died.”

“We need to hurry over and help!” Li Yunfeng briefly explained what happened.

In less than two minutes, Shufen came out of the room.

“Let’s go, let’s go help!”

After saying that, Li Yunfeng led the way towards Shuhua’s house. On the way, Li Yunfeng and the others encountered Zhao Jianguo’s family. A group of people crying loudly came towards Shuhua’s side.

“Hehe!”

Seeing smiles on the faces of several people, Li Yunfeng immediately sneered. Indeed, Shuhua was right. Zhao Jianguo was dead, and they were here to discuss who Shuhua would end up with!
