Back to 1980: Hunting in the Mountains to Support My Beloved Wife

(Rebirth + Hunting in the Mountains + Multiple Heroines + Stockpiling Food in the 1980s + A Tough Man with a Tender Heart)

In his previous life, Chen Weidong struck it rich through sea foraging and owned factories worth tens of billions. Yet in the coldest winter of 1980, he could only watch as his newlywed wife, Ye Xiaomei, starved to death in their earthen house.

He was reborn back in that winter.

The flour jar was almost empty, with only a few ounces of cornmeal left. Outside, heavy snow sealed off the mountains. Next door, his widowed sister-in-law, Pan Xiulan, was nearly out of food for herself and her child. The whole village was waiting for spring, but spring was still three months away.

Chen Weidong felt the notched edge of the hatchet in his hand.

Decades of survival skills from foraging along the coast in his previous life were still fresh in his mind. On the snow beneath his feet, the tracks of a wild hare stood out clearly.

In this life, he would go into the mountains.

Gray-brown hares, badgers, roe deer, wild boars... The old forests of the Changbai Mountains were full of ways to stay alive. Where others saw a dead end, he saw a backyard garden.

His wife, Ye Xiaomei, was sweet and sensible but frail, so he had to take care of her. His widowed sister-in-law, Pan Xiulan, was feisty and capable but often bullied, so he had to protect her. Later came a girl fleeing famine in the mountains, a pretty accountant at the supply and marketing cooperative... One by one, they all ended up clinging to him.

Chen Weidong had wanted to spend his life with just one woman, but Ye Xiaomei blushed and ushered the others into their home. "Sister Xiulan has had it hard. Let's all live together."
