Chapter 1: Severing Relations and Moving Out of the Tang Family
1970, Tang Family (the entire story is fictional and does not involve history).
"Wanwan, your father is still in prison. We might be sent to the farm at any time. Your father and I have published an announcement in the newspaper to sever all ties between you and your brother."
"Although we have never seen Lu Huaijing, he is the son of a martyr, his family has been poor farmers for three generations, and he is a soldier. If you marry him, he will definitely be of good class."
"Mom and Dad are doing this for your own good. Why are you so upset? If your dad hadn't been reported, we wouldn't have resorted to such a desperate measure."
“…”
I have a splitting headache.
My brain is about to explode!
The chattering filled Tang Wan's ears, and a memory that did not belong to her was forced into her mind.
She opened her eyelids with great difficulty and was met with an extremely beautiful face.
The original owner's mother, Qin Su, hurriedly stuffed a handful of colorful bills into the cloth bag, and then stuffed them all into Tang Wan's hands.
"Wanwan, hurry up. Lu Huaijing is waiting for you at the door of the state-owned hotel opposite our house. Go back with him to get the marriage certificate as soon as possible.
Don’t mention your parents when you get there. Even if we accidentally run into you, just pretend you don’t know us.”
"Mom..."
Tang Wan's voice was dry and hoarse. When the original owner learned that she was going to marry a strange man she had never met before, she immediately hit her head against the wall and committed suicide.
When she woke up again, she had become the new century girl who was choked to death by water. The wound on her head was still aching.
However, she didn't have time to say much to Qin Su as there were already loud banging sounds on the door outside.
Qin Su's hands trembled, and she hurriedly pushed a suitcase in front of Tang Wan, "It must be the people from the street office. Wan Wan, hurry up!"
"Mom, take care!"
Tears welled up in Tang Wan's eyes, she didn't know whether these were her own emotions or the original owner's.
Qin Su did not see Tang Wan off, but wiped her hands and walked outside. They lived in what used to be the servants' quarters of the Tang family, which was still some distance from the main gate.
Tang Wan didn't have time to look around her room. Instead, she lowered her eyes to look at the tiny red mole on the back of her hand.
Tang Wan heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that the space was still there. Before traveling through time, she was a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and also opened a large shopping mall.
Later, she got a space with a shopping mall she opened. She thought the world was about to end, and she collected a lot of supplies.
Without time to think, Tang Wan quickly emptied her room, including her clothes, skirts, books and her daily necessities.
I also threw the suitcases my mother had prepared into the space, and then I noticed that the house they lived in was not big, with only three bedrooms and a living room.
At that time, my father handed over all his property and real estate in order to protect himself, and his family moved to the servants' room next to the villa.
Tang Wan quickly went to her parents' room and left only the clothes they needed for daily life, clearing out everything else.
Once the street office arrives, there will be no hope of leaving anything. It is better to benefit our own family than to benefit others.
In order to allow her to escape, her mother must have delayed time, so Tang Wan pushed open the last room according to her memory.
This is the study room, and also the room where my younger brother lives. Most of his daily necessities are gone. Qin Su and his wife sent their younger brother to his cousin's house long before they anticipated something was wrong.
The original owner's father was reported, so there might be something hidden in this study to frame him.
So Tang Wan waved her hand and emptied out all the things in the study. She walked to a portrait and took it down.
Then he took a hammer from the space and knocked lightly, revealing a mechanism on the wall. Tang Wan twisted the mechanism.
A shocking scene happened!
A row of bookcases in the room slowly moved away automatically, revealing a passage leading to the basement.
A cunning rabbit has three burrows. The well-established Tang family naturally had been prepared. In the original owner's memory, her father had told her about this place.
Tang Wan almost trotted in. Wow, the basement was filled with dozens of sandalwood boxes. No wonder the couple were guarding the servants' room.
Qin Su's loud rebuttal sounded in her ears, and Tang Wan quickly threw all the boxes into the space.
She returned the same way and took a quick glance at the kitchen before leaving, not even leaving out the pots, pans, and utensils.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, accompanied by the sound of something being smashed. Tang Wan climbed out of the window of the guest room and ran quickly towards the small villa not far away.
The small villa has been handed over to the public, and the people living there are all vying for the right to live in it, so it has remained empty.
But someone in their family kept a secret: she took the key from her mother's room.
When climbing into the small villa, Tang Wan noticed with her sharp eyes that those people entered the servants' room and Qin Su was pushed to the ground.
Tang Wan felt a surge of anger in her heart, and she wanted to rush over to rescue her mother.
The next second, she regained her senses. She couldn't go out. If she went out, she would definitely be arrested. She had to protect herself so that she could change her family's identities.
Thinking of this, Tang Wan's eyes fell on the small house. Only furniture and the piano that the original owner had used were left here.
The wood used in the furniture of wealthy people is of high quality, and it will become worth a lot of money in a few decades.
Tang Wan didn't want to let those people get away with it, and she couldn't bear to see the furniture being smashed, so she put all the things in the three-story villa into the space in one go.
A box of notes and several sandalwood boxes left by grandpa were found in the secret room of the small villa.
Seeing those people smashing down the house in anger, Tang Wan sneaked out of the Tang residence from the back.
She was carrying the suitcase prepared by her mother.
There was a crowd of people outside. Looking at the gray city buildings and the walls covered with slogans, Tang Wan was stunned for a moment.
Only then did she feel as if she had traveled back to the 1970s.
From a distance, Tang Wan saw a tall figure standing at the entrance of the state-owned hotel. Although he was not wearing a military uniform, his aura was unmistakable.
A short buzz cut, deep facial features, and straight long legs are Tang Wan's type.
At this time, Lu Huaijing looked down at his watch from time to time, and his brows furrowed when his eyes fell on Tang's house not far away.
Just as he was thinking about whether to go to Tang's house to bring his fiancée out, a beautiful figure appeared in front of him.
Tang Wan was indeed beautiful. Her parents were from a wealthy family, so they taught her music, chess, calligraphy and painting privately.
She had a bookish air and milky white skin, but the white gauze wrapped around her hair ruined her beauty.
"Hello, are you Comrade Lu?"
Tang Wan stood in front of Lu Huaijing, and Lu Huaijing's frown finally relaxed slightly, "It's me."
He was originally somewhat resistant to this marriage, but suddenly he felt that it would be nice if it was her.
If it weren't for special reasons, how could he, a country bumpkin, be worthy of such a delicate girl.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
When Tang Wan said this, her eyes could not help but fall on the Tang residence not far away, only to see the street office officers returning empty-handed and swearing as they came out of the Tang residence.
Her mother, Qin Su, was squeezed in the middle, and some passers-by who didn't know why spit at her.
That beautiful face now looked very shabby, with all kinds of dirty words that were disgusting to the eyes.
Qin Su's eyes fell on Tang Wan, and quickly moved away as if nothing had happened, as if she was seeing a stranger.
Tang Wan felt a pain in her heart and she couldn't help but take a step forward. The next second, she was dragged back a few steps.
"Don't let your parents down for their love for you."
Lu Huaijing quickly let go of his hand like a gentleman, and then stood in front of Tang Wan to block those prying eyes.
"Don't worry, I'll go find out what happened to them later."
"Thank you."
Tang Wan's voice was still a little hoarse, her beautiful eyes looked like they had been washed with water, and the corners of her eyes were red, and her voice was very soft.
"Comrade Lu, can you accompany me to pick someone up?"
