Chapter 488 The Life of a Cannon Fodder in the 1960s (2)



Although time rewinds to before she went to the countryside, the little girl only retains memories, nothing else remains, and her entire soul vanishes.

She knew it was probably because she had committed too many sins, after all, she had killed everyone in the village. How could God possibly let her live a peaceful new life?

However, she still transmitted her most profound memories to the original owner, hoping that she could avoid being bullied by the village hooligans after going to the countryside. If possible, she hoped that the girl could repay the strong man who lived in the cowshed.

She felt particularly sorry for the strong man. Although he looked like a soldier, he was actually just a scientist doing research. His family consisted of his father and stepmother, so after he was sent down to the countryside, his relationship with his father was immediately severed in the newspaper.

She hoped that after the young girl went to the countryside, if it wouldn't be too difficult, she could take care of the strong man, so that his gratitude would dissipate a little.

But she didn't expect the girl to be so bad at coping. She was already sad and upset because her family wanted her to go to the countryside, and she cried all night. When she learned about the miserable life she would have to live in the countryside, she was shocked and frightened and couldn't hold back her tears.

When she opened her eyes again, although she still had the name Tang Baozhu, the soul inside her had changed.

Tang Baozhu has experienced a lot. Apart from encountering such cruel evil cultivators in the cultivation world, she has never encountered a single good person in the entire village.

No wonder the people who went to the countryside in that village were so united. If they weren't united, they would have been harmed if they weren't careful.

Even some male educated youths who encountered female comrades who had fallen into the water were blamed for saving them. Over time, those who went to the countryside there simply banded together for warmth and never paid much attention to what was happening outside. After finishing work, they would come straight back.

In other worlds, it's impossible to find an easier job there; not having work points deducted every day is already considered quite good.

It was rare to encounter an entire village so vicious; she felt it would be a real shame not to uphold justice.

I happen to have plenty of talismans in my own space, so it wouldn't hurt to strike them with lightning when I have nothing else to do. After all, they've done so many evil deeds, so being struck by lightning is a normal thing for them.

I always feel an itch to get my hands dirty and can't wait to go to the countryside and deal with those inhuman things.

Feeling her eyes were red and swollen, and extremely uncomfortable, Tang Baozhu washed her face and went back to sleep. She figured she might as well let her eyes stay swollen.

She didn't believe the girl's parents didn't know she had cried all night. The walls weren't soundproof at all, so they must have heard her. If the swelling in her eyes went down, it would feel like an unnecessary effort.

The little girl's parents in her past life prepared so many things for her out of a sense of compensation, and also because they couldn't bear to see her cry all night.

Perhaps because she absorbed the memories last night, and because the little girl cried for so long, she went to bed late, and by the time she woke up the next day, a lot of time had already passed.

Stepping out of the house, I saw a living room outside, with two other small rooms next to it, but I was all alone inside.

My parents have already gone to work, and my 15-year-old brother has gone to school. Suddenly, I realized that my 15-year-old brother is still in school, so it seems normal for a young girl to go to the countryside. It's just that so many people who went to the countryside never came back, so I'm afraid.

Opening the door and stepping out of the house, Tang Baozhu looked around and realized that she seemed to be in a house on the third floor. There were many stoves for cooking along the entire corridor, and it felt like there were a lot of families living in this corridor.

The toilet was on the far right, and just thinking about the smell made Tang Baozhu feel uncomfortable. Everyone used the toilet there, so it was no wonder it smelled bad. Tang Baozhu really didn't want to go.

After wandering around for a while, Tang Baozhu realized that this place should be the living quarters of employees from the same factory. Although there were three rooms and a living room inside, it was obvious at a glance that it had been renovated.

The living room was partitioned off to create a separate room. What was originally supposed to be a bedroom, a guest room, and a kitchen has been transformed into three bedrooms and a living room. Fortunately, it's just enough to live in, though a bit cramped.

As far as I can remember, the girl's older brother worked in another factory and was also allocated a house, so he rarely lived at home. In addition, after he married his sister-in-law, he rarely came back. He would only come home for a meal during holidays.

However, even if they came back to live here, there would be nowhere for them to stay. Before, the four siblings could squeeze into three rooms, but now that some have married out or moved out, the family's living space has become a bit more spacious.

After looking around, I realized that the environment was similar to other eras. Most places had mud houses, while brick houses and multi-story buildings were quite rare.

After returning to the house, I saw the breakfast left on the living room table. I lifted the bowl and was surprised to find two eggs inside.

After all, it's not easy to get eggs in the city. The number of eggs you can buy each month is very limited. It's not just about having money; it's all about luck.

There are two eggs in the bowl right now, which is considered quite generous of his parents, who cooked two for him at once.

Tang Baozhu took one to eat for breakfast, and decided to leave the other for her younger brother. Her brother wasn't a troublemaker; he was exceptionally well-behaved and sensible.

So even though the girl went to the countryside and had a tough time there, she didn't resent her younger brother. The bond between them since childhood was genuine.

After eating the eggs, I went straight into the house to check on the girl's personal belongings and tidy things up a bit, since there were only a few days left before I had to go to the countryside.

There was only a bed, a desk and chair for doing homework, and the desk was covered with the girl's old textbooks. However, the girl had already graduated and had not found a job, so she had been staying at home all this time.

If I weren't going to the countryside, I'd probably be getting introduced to potential partners and getting married by now.

In my memory, the little girl didn't have much savings. She was too well-behaved and didn't know how to save money. All she had was less than two yuan, which she saved to buy some feminine hygiene products.
