"Don't worry."
Lin Jingyu gently wiped away her tears. "From now on, you are me, and I am you. Your family is my family. I will never let down anyone who is good to you."
I don't know if it's just my imagination, but after saying those words...
Lin Jingyu felt much more relaxed, both physically and mentally.
I couldn't help but add, "May you live the life you love in your next life."
That night.
Lin Jingyu had a bizarre and fantastical dream.
One moment they're living in the new century, and the next they're living in the 1960s and 70s.
Two lives constantly switch back and forth.
When she woke up, she was somewhat confused about which one was herself, or whether both of her lives were her own.
Of course, the confusion was only temporary, and Lin Jingyu quickly adjusted her mood.
Live in the moment.
In these busy days, she completely forgot about her past life.
I occasionally recall some memories and then just laugh it off.
The days go by.
Lin Jingyu heard some interesting gossip from her other friends.
For example: Zhang Aiguo has someone he likes.
For example, Zhao Zhiqing has not been to work for several days.
For example: The village chief's daughter-in-law gave birth to a baby boy.
Lin Jingyu doesn't care about other gossip news.
However, the birth of a child in the village chief's family is a joyous occasion, and she plans to send some nice gifts over.
Although the number of substitute teachers has not yet been officially determined.
If we don't make a good impression at this time, this great opportunity might really fall through.
The thought of having to stay in the village for seven or eight years made me realize that having an easier job was better than working myself to death every day.
She believed that as long as the village chief took care of her, no matter what happened in the future, she would be able to live a peaceful life.
She decided to take this opportunity to give the village chief a generous gift.
I spent a long time rummaging through the space at the dock.
One pound of brown sugar, ten eggs, two feet of cotton cloth, one can of malted milk powder, and a small silver ring for the baby's wrist.
Lin Jingyu was quite lucky; she found a batch of jewelry made of various materials in a cargo compartment.
This gift might have seemed insignificant in my previous life, but it's definitely a valuable gift now.
While everyone else was at home taking showers and eating dinner...
Lin Jingyu carried her bundle and things to the village chief's house.
Fortunately, I didn't encounter many people on the way.
Her figure soon appeared in the village chief's courtyard.
"Uncle Village Chief, Auntie~"
Lin Jingyu called out as she entered, "Have you eaten yet?"
"Jingyu is here."
Aunt Hongmei came out carrying a bowl. "Have you eaten? Come in and have some with us."
"Auntie, I've already eaten."
Lin Jingyu walked in with a smile.
I happened to see the village chief and his family eating together.
She greeted him with a smile: "Uncle, Brother Hansheng, congratulations on the birth of your son! It seems my sister-in-law Guihua has made a great contribution this time."
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
Liu Hansheng smiled and nodded at her, "Your sister-in-law will definitely be very happy to hear this. When you come over for the full moon celebration, have a good chat with her."
Lin Jingyu smiled and nodded, "No problem, I like to join in the fun and eat at wedding banquets, just don't laugh at me for being greedy."
"How much can a little girl like you eat?"
The village chief chuckled and took over the conversation.
Seeing the large bundle in her hand, his eyes flickered a few times, and he said again, "Have you really eaten? The food at your uncle's house isn't lavish, but it's enough to fill your stomach."
"Uncle, what are you saying?"
Lin Jingyu said with a smile, "Everyone's food is just enough to fill their stomach. I didn't come here today to freeload. I wanted to ask you for leave because I want to go to the county town tomorrow."
"Why are you going to the county town again, you silly girl?"
The village chief smiled. "I heard your family sent you a package just a couple of days ago. Are you planning to send a letter back this time?"
"Uncle, you are wise."
Lin Jingyu gave a thumbs up, "It seems that nothing in our village can escape your discerning eye."
"You little girl, you really know how to talk. You have such a sweet tongue that you know how to make people happy."
The village chief's smile became even more gentle and kind. "It's not the busy farming season now. If you want to go to the county town, go ahead. Be careful while you're out and about, and try to come back as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, Uncle, I won't go looking for trouble."
Lin Jingyu smiled and said, "By the way, Uncle, Aunt, Brother Hansheng, this is a small token of my appreciation for Sister-in-law Guihua's postpartum care."
You can't refuse, I'm looking forward to coming to the baby's one-month celebration.
"You silly child, we would definitely invite you to our full moon celebration."
Aunt Hongmei feigned displeasure, "Take the things back. We've already prepared everything your sister-in-law Guihua needs for postpartum care. You don't need to spend any more money."
"Auntie, what do you mean by spending money? I don't like hearing that."
Lin Jingyu deliberately acted coquettishly and domineeringly, "It's one thing for your family to be prepared, and it's another thing for me to give you something. Besides, this is just a small token of my appreciation, so we can't confuse the two."
"How can you be so talkative, girl?"
Aunt Hongmei was both amused and exasperated. "According to you, we have no choice but to accept it."
Lin Jingyu winked at her, "Auntie is wise."
"Alright, alright, your aunt can't argue with you."
Aunt Hongmei smiled and shook her head, "We've accepted the gifts. Come over and help when the baby is a month old. We're family, no need to be so polite."
"Don't worry, Auntie, I'll definitely come early and try the delicious food first."
"Okay, okay, as long as you're not picky about the taste."
