As a child, Guan Xiao'e was baffled by her parents' treatment of Guan Lao Er. Her and Guan Lao Er's birthdays were seven months apart, and her mother said Guan Lao Er's birth was difficult and nearly fatal, so she didn't like him. Later, her mother explained that her own birth was also difficult, but the treatment was vastly different. At the time, she truly loved Guan Xiao'e. Now, I understand it wasn't because of the difficult birth, but rather because she didn't love him in the first place, so it was strange she would have loved him.
After hearing what had happened at her mother's home, Guan Xiao'e and Guan Fang pondered why her parents had been arrested and executed. They concluded that they were so different after returning from their near-death experience in the mountains. Guan Fang then said they must be possessed; otherwise, how could they have changed so drastically? He had raised her, then turned against her and led the charge to capture her father. Guan Laoer wasn't like that. The more they discussed it, the more certain they became that he was possessed. So, offering ten eggs as a reward, they invited a local shaman to perform a ritual to drive away the evil spirit and restore Guan Laoer to his former self. The shaman initially hesitated to go, having just been arrested, paraded through the streets, and released by the commune. But the allure of the ten eggs was so strong that, after a split second of hesitation, the old woman finally agreed to follow.
Guan Lao Da and his wife finally understood the whole story, but they didn't dare to let him jump. Firstly, Guan Lao Er and his wife were not at home, so it would be useless to jump. Secondly, they were afraid that someone would see them in broad daylight and they would be arrested and sent to the commune.
Guan Xiao'e asked Guan Lao Da if he had visited his parents. Guan Lao Da evaded the question for a long time and even told his sister about the separation of the family property among his brothers. Guan Xiao'e burst into tears and said, "My parents separated as soon as I was born. Are you really my biological children?" She left crying with a shaman dance. Guan Dasao shrugged, said nothing, and left the house to continue working in the fields.
The grandson's wife, who was pregnant, was at home the whole time and watched the whole process. She thought to herself that she didn't expect that one of the children born to Old Man Guan was actually a human.
As for Jiang Huashu, he visited various factories in the space and found that everything inside was the same as before he crossed over. Even the things in the desk drawers in the office, the financial statements in the accounting office, the water in the water dispenser, and the items produced in the production workshop were exactly the same as before he crossed over.
Jiang Huashu and his wife searched office after office, finding a ton of useful items. A rechargeable self-balancing scooter could be used to transport them between the factory and their house; otherwise, traversing the space every day would be time-consuming.
A lot of carbon pen printing paper, which can be used later.
The office warehouse was filled with more than a dozen boxes of instant coffee, snacks, toilet paper, work clothes, disinfectant, sterile workshop work clothes and other things.
He was patrolling on the electric bike in the shed in the textile factory yard. This bike was left there by Jiang Huashu before, and the key was always on it, so that he could ride it conveniently when he strolled around the park.
The warehouse was also filled with goods that had not been shipped out in time. This batch of goods was an order for Russia, a four-piece set of bed sheets and quilt covers. It was just completed three days before the crossing. The container was dispatched and it would be loaded onto its own cargo ship and shipped away five days later.
It was midnight when I arrived at the factory cafeteria, so there was no finished food. The various semi-finished products frozen in the freezer should be the food ingredients for breakfast the next morning.
