Reborn in 1960: A Mystery Box Lets My Whole Family Feast on Meat

On the night he tried to burn himself to death at sixty, Liu Wei stared at the sparks in the stove, consumed by regret. To marry the village beauty, Wang Xiulian, he forced his father to sell blood for the bride price. In the end, his wife, who was obsessed with supporting her younger brothers, pressured him into a divorce and had her brothers beat him until his legs were broken. His father’s blood donation ruined his health, and he was gored to death by a wild boar while searching the mountains for food. Liu Wei married off his second sister to a drunkard, who beat her until she jumped into a lake. His youngest sister was so hungry she went out to pick wild greens, only to become food for a pack of wolves...

When he opened his eyes again, he had been reborn in the famine winter of 1960! Wang Xiulian’s shrill voice still rang in his ears: “A hundred yuan in bride money plus the three big items and a radio. If you’re short by even one thing, forget about marrying me!”

Before he could get angry, a message appeared before his eyes: [Midnight Blind Box System]

“Ding! Open a box at midnight and receive five jin of cornmeal and wild vegetable seeds!”

“Ding! Open a box and receive intelligence on where to find hazel mushrooms, plus a temporary boost to your strength!”

“Ding! Open a box and receive wild ginseng and a tame Siberian tiger cub!”

From then on, Liu Wei waited for midnight every day:

While others chewed tree bark and swallowed clay, he served his family wild boar meat and reishi mushroom soup at every meal.

Wang Xiulian came back to make a scene: “This is your last chance to marry me!”

Liu Wei grinned around a chicken leg. “Get lost! Lin Xiaoyan, the educated youth, just finished tutoring my sister, and a city official wants to learn hunting from me. Who do you think you are?”

This time around, he would make sure his father got ginseng tonic, his second sister married a decent man, and his youngest sister went to school! As for anyone who had bullied his family, he’d let the tiger cub give them a little greeting first!
