"Unity is strength, unity is strength; this strength is iron, this strength is steel..."
A song blaring from a loudspeaker startled the person who was curled up in a ball on the small kang (heated brick bed).
Zhao Huanhuan sat up abruptly and looked around.
This is a house with a timber frame, one window and one door. The lower half of the window is glass, and the upper half is a window frame, covered with paper-cut window decorations and white hemp paper.
The roof was made of wooden rafters, and he was sitting on a small earthen bed with only a bamboo mat on it.
What's going on? Where am I?
What song is this familiar yet unfamiliar voice singing?
"Zhao Huanhuan, hurry up, it's time to get to work!" Suddenly, a girl's voice came from the courtyard.
Is it calling yourself?
Zhao Huanhuan hesitated for a moment, then got off the ground and saw a pair of red corduroy square-toed cloth shoes on the ground.
So retro!
Then I looked at my clothes: a red shirt and blue canvas pants.
This outfit...
The unfamiliar environment, the unfamiliar sounds, and the fact that this body wasn't even her own—Zhao Huanhuan felt that she might have transmigrated!
Don't panic, she's been a netizen for over a decade, she's familiar with this kind of situation.
There was a round mirror standing on a cabinet to the side, and she leaned closer to it.
With red lips and white teeth, and curved eyebrows and eyes, this face wasn't her own; she had truly transmigrated. However, she had no memories of the original owner.
I have no idea what era this is. Judging from the clothes and the glass mirrors, it doesn't seem to be ancient times.
She didn't know who was calling her from outside.
Oh well, I'll just take it one step at a time.
She pushed open the door and went out, where she saw a girl wearing a slightly worn white shirt and a straw hat waiting for her.
"Are you still half asleep? Aren't you afraid of getting sunburned without a straw hat? The afternoon sun is scorching!" The girl looked at her suspiciously.
"oh!"
Zhao Huanhuan turned back and saw a straw hat hanging on the wall behind the door. She picked it up, put it on her head, and then went out again.
"Let's go!" Zhao Huanhuan said. As for the current situation, she would probably have to try to get some information out of the girl.
To her surprise, the girl stopped again, looking at her with a puzzled expression. "Did you really fall asleep? Why didn't you lock the door?"
"oh!"
Zhao Huanhuan silently turned back and saw a lock with a key on the windowsill inside. She took it out and locked the door.
The key has a long cord attached, so it must have been worn around the neck.
She put it on, and it fit perfectly.
The girl sighed after watching her put the key inside her clothes, and then walked out side by side with her.
"Huanhuan, when will the educated youth settlement be completed? I'm starting to not want to stay at the family's house I'm staying with anymore."
A youth settlement? Fellow villagers?
Upon hearing these keywords, Zhao Huanhuan had a sudden realization: could it be that she had traveled back to the 1970s or 80s?
Just then, the two of them stepped out of the gate and saw a red slogan written on the wall of someone else's house:
Serve the people!
Labor is the most glorious thing!
Well, it really feels like we've gone back to the 70s and 80s.
Moreover, if they were both sent-down youth, they should be between the 1970s and 1983 generations.
"I don't know!"
Zhao Huanhuan sighed and asked casually, "What's the name of this village again?"
The girl looked at her questioningly, then chuckled, "Huanhuan, you've been here for a month, and you still can't remember the name of this village?"
"Taojiawan Brigade of Hongguang Commune, also known as Taojiawan Village."
Zhao Huanhuan suddenly stopped in her tracks. Taojiawan? That sounds familiar!
Taojiawan, Zhao Huanhuan—isn't that a village and a female supporting character from a period novel I just finished reading a few days ago?
She read the whole thing while grumbling and cursing, simply because the author made the female supporting character with the same name suffer a terrible fate and even killed her off.
She was able to finish reading mainly because she was drawn in by the unwavering love between the male and female protagonists.
But after reading the whole story, what she remembered most was the most tragic cannon fodder female supporting character who shared the same name as her.
So, the current situation is that she has transmigrated into the book she has been cursing for several days and become the cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as herself.
Sigh!
Can we go back?
She roughly knew who the girl in front of her was: Wen Yan, a girl from the south who came to Taojiawan Village as an educated youth on the same day as her, and also the one who cried the most after Zhao Huanhuan's death.
Judging from Wenyan's words, has today marked one month since she arrived here?
Fortunately, we arrived not too late.
In the original book, Zhao Huanhuan had an accident three months after she arrived here, which means there are still two months until the accident happened.
Fortunately, I'm here now; it's not too late.
Did God send someone like me, who knows the plot, to live in Zhao Huanhuan's place, just to help her rewrite her tragic ending?
Thinking about the original owner's ending in the book, it was truly tragic.
Two years ago, after graduating from junior high school, she was arranged by her parents to work as a female worker in a cotton mill through their connections.
Who knew that the girl, because of her straightforward nature and inability to curry favor, would offend the group leader.
For the past two years, she has been constantly given the cold shoulder, but she has endured it all. Who told her not to know how to flatter the team leader?
Unexpectedly, that group leader was promoted this year and became the director of their workshop.
The first thing she did after becoming the director was to sacrifice her, registering her for a spot in the factory's rural educated youth program, using the excuse that she was the most educated female worker in the workshop and should be sent to the countryside to receive re-education from poor and lower-middle peasants.
