The village has dozens of households, and the largest and most impressive house belongs to Zhang the Hunter.

When Zhang was young, he was a skilled hunter who could kill even tigers with his bare hands. The five large brick houses in his home were all acquired by him through trading his prey.

His family also has a cow, two pigs, six sheep, and more than thirty chickens, ducks, and geese.

Even the village chief, passing by, would feel envious.

But his family had one shortcoming.

That's population.

Zhang the hunter's wife died young. He struggled to raise his son, who then married and had a granddaughter. However, his son and daughter-in-law died in an accident while traveling by boat.

When my granddaughter was six years old, she was playing with the neighbor's child when she was pushed down by someone with excessive force, which injured her brain and left her mentally disabled.

Now the mentally challenged child is eighteen years old. Although he is fair-skinned and delicate, no one cares about him.

Hunter Zhang was getting old and had developed many health problems, making hunting increasingly difficult for him.

Fearing that no one would take care of his granddaughter after he died, he thought about finding a son-in-law to live with him so that his granddaughter could have a son or daughter and have someone to rely on in the future.

However, it's not easy to find a son-in-law who will live with his wife's family.

He was too shrewd to consider it, fearing that his money would be taken away, his granddaughter would be kicked out of the house, or die a violent death.

He was foolish and also afraid that he and his wife would be bullied in the future.

After searching for half a year, I still couldn't find it.

After a heavy rain, the river water was murky, making it the perfect time to catch fish.

He took his fishing net, went to the familiar section of the river, cast it down, and pulled it up with incredible weight, which made him very happy.

"We've caught the big one."

He was talking to himself.

It's speculated that it might be a large bluefish weighing fifty or sixty pounds.

To my surprise, when I pulled it out, it turned out to be a grown man.
