Charming Educated Youth: I Brings Space to the 1970s

Song Yan never thought she would experience a day of transmigrating into a book. Well, if she transmigrated, she transmigrated! The 1970s weren't that scary.

However, she didn't expec...

Chapter 11 Finding Fault

The first thing Song Yan did as she walked towards the cowshed was to explore her spatial dimension. Originally a perfect square, it now had a slightly larger corner. The pendant had reacted when Xiao Xiao was eating strawberries. Could it be that giving others food produced within the dimension would make it expand?

Upon arriving at the cowshed, Song Yan gave them a lunchbox of strawberries. Looking around the space again, it had indeed expanded a little. There was still empty space; Song Yan decided to plant grass. Feeding the cows with grass every day should have the same effect, right? As Song Yan walked back, she moved any suitable grass she could see into her space… As soon as she entered the yard, Wei Ping and Wei An ran out and each hugged one of Song Yan's legs. These past few days, she had only seen them greet Wei Aiguo like this every time; she never expected to receive the same treatment today. Song Yan couldn't help but pat their heads, "Go wash your hands, there's something good to eat."

Wei Ping loves to eat, but when he heard there was something delicious, he didn't rush to wash his hands: "There are bad people."

Wei An: "Second Madam is a bad person."

Wei Aiguo's aunt, whom Wei Ping and Wei An call Second Grandma. Song Yan washed the two children's hands. Aunt Wei smiled: "You haven't spoiled them for nothing. Your second aunt came and nagged you a bit, and look how unhappy they are."

Wei Ping: "Second Grandma is talking badly about you."

Wei An: "She's bad."

The two children were already quite articulate and could express themselves clearly. However, since her mother-in-law didn't seem unhappy, Song Yan didn't take it to heart.

Everyone shared a box of strawberries, but the children wouldn't let anyone else have the rest, saying they wanted to wait for their second uncle to come back so they could eat together. These two children were so considerate. Song Yan was determined to find the right opportunity to take Wei Ping for surgery. Such a lovely child; she couldn't let anything happen to him.

First, we need to find a way to earn money. Medical expenses are not reimbursed for rural residents, and this surgery requires a sum of money.

Besides fishing rods, the Wei family's storeroom also contained bows and arrows, and a knife over a foot long. The blade and arrowheads were gleaming. Song Yan asked her mother-in-law about the origin of these items. It turned out that Wei Ping's grandfather was a hunter, and these were all his tools. Song Yan wanted to test if she could use the bow and arrow. Shooting a rabbit with a bow and arrow would be more convincing than simply saying she caught it! The rabbit in her spatial storage was still tied up. However, that rabbit was clearly pregnant, and killing a pregnant rabbit felt cruel. But how could she raise it? If she kept it in her spatial storage, wouldn't it destroy everything?

In the afternoon, Song Yan took out her bow and practiced archery in the yard. It took her a lot of effort to pull it back even a little. The two little tattletales, upon seeing Wei Aiguo, immediately said that Song Yan was stupid and couldn't shoot arrows. Wei Aiguo looked at Song Yan questioningly, as if to ask what she meant.

Song Yan was a little embarrassed. "I was curious about the bow in the storeroom, so I wanted to take it out and try it out, but I couldn't draw it at all."

Wei Aiguo: "That bow is so strong that even a strong man can't draw it. It's not something a woman can use."

This method of cheating didn't work, and Song Yan was a little disappointed. She casually asked, "Are there bows for women too?"

"have."

Wei Aiguo walked into the house, and Song Yan followed behind him, asking, "Where can I buy it?"

Wei Aiguo ignored her, and Song Yan didn't ask any more questions. Even if they were for sale, she didn't have the money to buy them...

When the village holds a meeting on ideological education, almost everyone comes. Each person brings a small stool and sits on the open ground in front of the village committee.

The Qingshan Brigade was originally called Qingshan Village, so now people sometimes call this the village committee and sometimes the brigade headquarters.

The village committee building consisted of several interconnected houses, the only brick building in the village. The easternmost room had no glass windows; the windows were boarded up. That was the storeroom. Song Yan suddenly remembered seeing cages through a crack before. She peered through the crack in the board and, sure enough, there were three cages!

Song Yan: I'd like to borrow these cages for a bit, I'm not stealing them! The three cages vanished on the spot. They were placed on the grass in the spatial dimension!

Song Yan found a place to sit down.

"Oh! Patriot's wife has finally come out." A small old woman, with a tiny bun at the back of her head. You could tell from her appearance that she had very little hair. There were no gray hairs in her hair, and she looked much younger than her mother-in-law. This woman was Wei Aiguo's aunt, the bad person that Wei An and Wei Ping had mentioned.

She spoke in a sarcastic tone from the start, and Song Yan, unwilling to engage with her, simply nodded at her.

"What kind of taste does my sister-in-law have? Look at the wife she found for Aiguo. She doesn't like to work and acts like a capitalist's daughter. She doesn't even know how to greet her elders. What a piece of trash!" The old lady squinted, displaying the image of a shrew.

Having dealt with many elderly people before, Song Yan wasn't afraid of someone like this. She just felt the woman's heart was wicked. Was it so easy to wear the hat of a capitalist's daughter? It could be deadly, and she had no grudge against her! "Who are you? I was injured before. I went back to work after I recovered. Many people saw me today."

First, I don't know you, so who are you to me as an elder? Second, I did the work; I'm not lazy or lazy, nor do I act like a capitalist's daughter.

Hearing Aunt Wei's words, many people gathered around. The one who stepped forward was Wei Aiguo. "This is my second aunt."

"Oh, it's Second Aunt! I'll recognize you next time. But just because you're Wei Aiguo's Second Aunt doesn't mean I don't work! Just ask Aiguo, I take care of my mother-in-law, and I look after the children. I even cut grass for the cows today." Song Yan thought to herself, "I'm like a maid, serving the old and the young, who do you think you are! And you're still criticizing me. This is the first time in both my past and present lives that I've done so much work."

"Look at her, everyone. Do you think I, as her elder, can't say anything to her? She has a whole tirade waiting for me. Sitting by the river all afternoon, is that work? Cutting grass? I bet she was just busy picking and eating strawberries!" Fish for outsiders, strawberries for outsiders. Doesn't she know I have children? Aunt Wei thought bitterly. "You dare disrespect me? You'll regret it."
