Chapter 1: Six Skeletons at the Start



When Xiang Mianmian opened her eyes, she found that six skeletons were staring at her, just like Tang Monk and his disciples surrounding her in a circle. She was frightened when she opened her eyes and her whole body trembled.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to jump, it’s just that she doesn’t have the strength.

I was so hungry that I had acid reflux and heartburn, and my whole body felt weak and powerless, and I felt like I was going to die.

No, take the feeling away.

"Who are you?" She was terrified. When she opened her eyes, she saw several people with sunken cheeks from hunger surrounding her. Who wouldn't be scared?

Xiang Mianmian thought she was shouting loudly, but in fact, her breath was so weak that her voice was not much louder than a mosquito's.

Fortunately, they were close, so Zhang Jidi could hear it clearly.

Her eyes were filled with tears. As a mother, how could she not feel sorry for her daughter? Zhang Jidi opened her mouth to say something, but was afraid that Xiang Mianmian couldn't hear her, so she quickly shouted, "Mian, you're finally awake. What's wrong with you? Why didn't you say a word when you were so hungry?"

The other children also started asking questions at once. Xiang Mianmian only felt a buzzing in her ears. She had never felt so weak before.

She licked the corner of her mouth and tasted a hint of sweetness.

The fifth sister, Xiang Lili, was particularly capable. She picked up the bowl beside the bed, went to the stove, scooped some water from the pot into the bowl, and then brought it back to the youngest sister.

Xiang Mianmian was thirsty and even more hungry. After drinking a bowl of water, she finally felt half full.

She drank some water and finally had the strength to answer: "...Mom, I'm fine, I just feel dizzy and want to lie down for a while."

Seeing that her face was pale, but she looked much better than before, she barely breathed. They reluctantly believed her story. Zhang Jidi sighed, waved his hand, and took the children away.

"Okay, you monkeys, the boss, hurry up and go to work. The second one asked you to make breakfast, why do you still want me to treat you? Are you still going to eat or not?

Third, fourth, and fifth brother, hurry up and paste the matchboxes. The job is due at noon, so stop slacking off!

In short, no one in the family can be idle.

After several people left the room and went about their own business, Xiang Mianmian lay down for a while and recovered a little strength before he finally received his body's memories.

——Maybe I’m so hungry that my brain can’t transmit any information.

It turned out that she had traveled back to the Three Years of Hardship. Yes, it was the time in the 1960s when people were so hungry that they ate Guanyin soil!

The only good news was that this year was the end of 1962, the three-year difficult period had passed, and thanks to God, the autumn harvest finally had some harvest, and the city had barely enough food to supply.

Looking at the bare environment and the pale and skinny family members, Xiang Mianmian felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

The original body died of starvation.

It's not that they favor boys over girls. The three sons and three daughters of the Xiang family are the apple of their parents' eyes. It's not easy to raise them to their teens. How could they deliberately starve their daughters to death?

The little girl was in poor health to begin with. In order to save more food for her family, she starved herself to the point of stomach cramps and passed out. She didn't survive and became the Xiang Mianmian of the 21st century.

Xiang Mianmian sighed. This original body was really depressed. She used the excuse that she was making matchboxes at home and not exercising and not hungry. A month ago, she forced herself to drink half of a bowl of porridge every night and gave it to her elder brother Xiang Liguo.

The little brat had been eating his father out. When Xiang Liguo went to work, he was so hungry that he had to catch mice and kill sparrows, but he was still emaciated. In addition, working in the factory was physical work, and he was tired and hungry, so he accepted the food from his sister.

The little girl had fainted from hunger two or three times, but she didn't take it seriously. As a result, she didn't survive this time.

What can she do? It doesn’t matter where she lives, but only those who have experienced hunger know what it’s like!

Xiang Mianmian didn't want to go hungry anyway, she was afraid of being hungry.

She took a quick look around the room and saw that it was quite small and the whole place was within her reach.

There is a 1.2-meter-wide bunk bed against the wall, a 1-meter-wide double-door wardrobe on the left, and a table and stool under the right window. There is no makeup mirror or skin care products on the table. It is for the six children to do their homework.

Yes, this room has good lighting because of the windows, and it also serves as a study. The three brothers' rooms don't even have windows, so they just put up beds and sleep with the doors open.

In fact, these two rooms are one room, separated by wooden boards, and there is a gap on the top that is not sealed to provide ventilation for the brother's room.

So the empty space between the three rooms was barely enough for three girls to stand at the same time. Even getting up had to be done in batches, otherwise they would hit their faces when getting dressed.

These are all good conditions. Most families have more than a dozen people living in a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment. They can use the curtains to make it a room, and it still doesn't affect having children.

Fortunately, Xiang Mianmian's father is a level six worker. There is a shortage of skilled workers in this era. Although the highest level is level eight, in a small county, there are only level six workers at most, and there are less than ten of them, so she is considered to have some reputation.

In addition, her mother also got a job, and coincidentally, she expanded the house in the second year after she got the job, otherwise she would not have been able to get this house.

Xiang Mianmian was indeed lucky in reincarnation. On the first day of her birth, the factory announced that the house had been completed and published a list of allotments based on contribution value. The Xiang family just happened to be the last to be allocated this house.

The family already loved the youngest child, and since Xiang Mianmian was given a house when she was born, the Xiang couple felt that this child was blessed and loved her even more.

But in Xiang Mianmian's eyes, her mother Zhang Jidi gave birth to a child because she was so excited about the division of houses. What does it have to do with blessing?

After all, if you are blessed, how can you starve to death? Do you want this blessing?
