Chapter 1: Transmigrating into the 1970s
"Mom, I don't agree. You can't push Xiaoxiao into the fire pit."
"What fire pit? Who in the fire pit would be willing to spend 200 yuan to marry a wife?"
"Xiaoxiao is still in school, let's talk about getting married later."
"What's the point of a little girl studying so much? She might as well get married soon."
The old lady's sharp voice came into Su Xiaoxiao's ears, making them buzz.
Who disturbs my sweet dream so early in the morning!
What a lack of public morality, so annoying!
Su Xiaoxiao sat up from the kang, picked up the enamel basin on the washbasin rack next to her, opened the door and poured the basin of water on the chattering old lady at the door.
The world suddenly became quiet.
The old lady was caught off guard and took a big sip of water. She stared at Su Xiaoxiao with wide eyes in disbelief, "You...you..."
Before she could finish her words, the door was slammed shut.
Su Xiaoxiao threw the basin away with hazy eyes, turned around and climbed onto the bed, closed her eyes and continued to sleep peacefully.
How annoying! She was just favoring a male model with eight-pack abs!
Turning over, she continued to dream.
The handsome brother hooked his eyes around her neck and said, "Sister~"
The low-pitched voice, comparable to that of a voice actor, made Su Xiaoxiao's heart beat wildly.
Knowing it was a dream, she was still willing to sink into it.
She reached out and lifted his chin in a slightly rogue manner, then lowered her head and kissed him.
The male model was not happy after just a brief taste.
He put his arms around her waist and switched their positions.
Su Xiaoxiao frowned and reached out to push the person away. The next moment, her hand was grabbed and pressed against the strong abdominal muscles.
Wow, it feels so good.
Just as she was enjoying it, she felt a sudden pain on her face and was forced to wake up from her dream.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a face in front of me, full of wrinkles like old tree bark.
Wang Chunhua put her hands on her waist and said in an imposing manner: "You little bitch, are you planning to rebel?"
He raised his hand to slap Su Xiaoxiao again, but before he could hit her, someone pushed him and he staggered.
"Liu Cuilan, are you crazy?"
After seeing who was behind this, Wang Chunhua's face turned even uglier.
It’s no wonder she’s partial to the second brother’s family. No one in the eldest brother’s family is good.
I used to think my eldest daughter-in-law was quite well-behaved.
Who would have thought that the eldest brother had been dead for so long and the mother and daughter dared to fight with her.
Liu Cuilan stood in front of her daughter and said, "Mom, you can hit me, but you can't hit Xiaoxiao. She's not feeling well."
When Su Xiaoxiao was born, there was a three-year food shortage after the Great Leap Forward. She was so hungry that she didn't even have milk and could only feed the child rice soup, so the child was the weakest among the five.
Liu Cuilan always felt that she owed her and loved her the most.
Wang Chunlan's eyes narrowed, and she reached out to push Liu Cuilan, causing her to stumble. "How dare you treat a stinky little girl like that?"
Su Xiaoxiao was given a headache by the noise. She held her forehead and looked around. When she saw the situation in the room, she was stunned.
Sunlight filtered through the green-painted windows, barely illuminating the dim room.
The narrow and cramped adobe wall made of yellow mud and bricks, with portraits of great men and a red plastic round mirror hanging on the wall, has a very old-fashioned feel.
The furnishings in the room were so shabby that it was appalling. Apart from an earthen kang (baked brick bed) and a table, chairs and benches that were missing parts, there was only an old red-painted wooden box at the head of the kang. There was nothing else.
It's the kind of place where even a thief would come and sigh at how poor it is.
"Oh my god."
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then reacted belatedly.
The good news is that she survived the car accident, but the bad news is that she traveled back to the 1970s when people were short of food and clothing.
In this era where everything requires a ticket and even a letter of introduction is required to go to a neighboring province, everyone is considered to be from a well-off family if their pockets are cleaner than their face and they can eat a full meal every day.
Unfortunately, the original owner's family had nothing to do with being well-off.
She has a mother who is always weak and sick, a brother who is crying for food, a girl who just sits and waits for food, and a vicious grandmother who favors boys over girls and always wants to pack her up for money.
There are six mouths to feed in the family, and they are mainly supported by the eldest and second brothers who work hard, so that the eldest brother is already 26 years old this year, and no one even wants to find a wife.
Tsk, the extent of their poverty is so great that it makes anyone who talks about it cry and anyone who hears about it feel sad.
Su Xiaoxiao took a look at the open-toed cloth shoes, the half-short pants, and the shabby house with bare walls, and secretly swore in her heart that since she had taken over someone else's body, she had an obligation to work hard to earn money and let her family live a good life.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the old lady's angry shout again: "I'm going to make this clear today. I've already accepted the 200 yuan betrothal gift. She has to marry me even if she doesn't want to!"
"Mom, you are going to kill us orphans and widows!"
A delicate female voice sounded, followed by the old lady's high-pitched voice: "I'm doing this for your own good. After marrying off that dead girl, I'll find a marriage for the eldest son and have him have a child. Only then will our Su family have a new heir."
Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her aching forehead and quickly realized that the person in front of her who kept calling her a dead girl was her adopted grandmother Wang Chunhua.
She turned her head to look at Liu Cuilan and saw her leaning against the table, her face looking like a hairtail that had been dead for three months.
"Mom, are you okay?"
She glared at Wang Chunhua fiercely and stepped forward to support Liu Cuilan.
"You stupid girl, you're rebelling."
Wang Chunhua was about to rush up and hit Su Xiaoxiao, but before her hand touched anyone, a slender white hand grabbed her wrist.
There was a crisp sound of "crackling", and her facial features immediately twisted and she let out a shrill scream.
Su Xiaoxiao helped Liu Cuilan lean against her arms and stared at her coldly: "If anything happens to my mother today, I will never let you go."
"You silly girl, I'm your grandmother, how can you talk like that?"
Wang Chunhua was frightened by her look, took a step back, and shouted with her neck stiffened.
"roll!"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Liu Cuilan, whose lips were turning pale, with heartache in her arms. She pushed Wang Chunlan out of the door and slammed it shut.
Wang Chunhua was mercilessly locked outside the door, and her face was like an overturned palette, with blue and red mixed together.
This damn girl, why is she so bold today?
She was about to bang on the door, but before her hand could touch it, it was suddenly opened.
Su Xiaoxiao flexed her wrist and looked at her coldly: "Anything else?"
The anger on Wang Chunhua's face instantly deflated: "No...it's okay."
With a bang, the door was slammed shut again, almost breaking the old lady's nose.
The old lady was about to say "silly girl" but she was forced to hold it back.
This money-losing guy is like a ghost possessed today, she can't afford to offend him.
I'll have to talk to my second son's wife about getting married later.
The second son’s wife is very capable. She will definitely make this damn girl obedient when the time comes.
Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to leave on her little feet.
Hearing the footsteps in the distance, Liu Cuilan, who was leaning on Su Xiaoxiao's arms and was barely breathing, suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were bright and energetic, and she no longer looked sick as before.
Su Xiaoxiao's face turned pale, and she reached out to hug the person and started to cry: "Mom, Mom, this is not a last gasp of yours, is it?"
