Xiao Yu put the ceramic cup on the stool and helped Lin Yiyi sit up. However, as soon as Lin Yiyi sat up, the thin blanket slipped off her body, and then Xiao Yu saw her open clothes and vest... and her chest as flat as an airport. Xiao Yu quickly looked away, his heart pounding. He didn't mean to look, he had forgotten about it at all: "That... I didn't unbutton your clothes." The deep voice was nervous, and even his ears were red.
If Xiao Yu hadn't said it, Lin Yiyi wouldn't have noticed it. After hearing what Xiao Yu said, Lin Yiyi turned her head to look at him. She saw that he tilted his head and his ears were facing her. At this time, his ears turned red. Lin Yiyi chuckled: "Well, I believe that Brother Xiao Yu is a gentleman and will not take off someone's clothes when they are sick."
Xiao Yu: "..." Why did he feel that his fiancee's words had other meanings, as if she was pointing out that he took advantage of her situation and took off her clothes... unbuttoned her clothes. What's so good about such a flat chest? No, no, no, that's not the point, "Button up first."
Lin Yiyi: "Hey, Brother Xiao Yu, don't worry, I won't blame you. Anyway...anyway, I will marry you sooner or later."
Xiao Yu emphasized: "It wasn't me..." He was always calm and a little annoyed, "It was the Second Army who unbuttoned it."
Lin Yiyi was stunned. That ungrateful guy? Of course, she also knew that Xiao Yu would not undress her. She was just teasing him. He even blushed when he saw her wearing a vest. Such a man was really fun to tease. He was very... innocent.
Xiao Yu: "I saw you fainted on the way home, so I sent you back to the Lin family... Later I followed Doctor Lin to get medicine... According to Erjun, he should be looking for money for your blood."
Lin Yiyi buttoned up her clothes, pretended to feel in her trouser pockets, and said anxiously, "My money is gone. I... I sold blood for thirty yuan... Maybe I lost it when I was in a daze on the way back. No, I have to go find the money." As she said that, she threw back the quilt and got out of bed. Then her body went limp and she fell to one side powerlessly.
"Be careful." Xiao Yu quickly hugged her, "You are too weak to get out of bed, and you will definitely not be able to find it if you go to look for it now. The money will not be left there for you to find. It must have been taken away by someone."
"But...but this is the money for the Second Army to study." Lin Yiyi said, leaning on Xiao Yu's arms and crying, "This is the money for the Great Army and the Second Army to study. What should we do now that the money is lost? Wuwuwu..."
Xiao-Woo: "I'll give it to you."
Lin Yi leaned on his arms, crying and speaking righteously: "No, I... I can't use your money. We... we haven't gotten married yet, how can I use your money? I don't want people to say I'm taking advantage of you, that's not good. And... and my aunt will definitely have an opinion about me. If I marry you again in the future, my life will be hard. I can't use your money."
Xiao Yu: "..." Is this girl thinking too far ahead? She even thought about the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problem. Does that mean she wants to marry him?
Xiao Yu: "...It doesn't matter, we...we are an engaged couple, my money is also your money." In Xiao Yu's mind, it is natural for a man to earn money and spend it on a woman. So in the future, his money will also be managed by her, the man earns money, and the woman is the head of the family.
Lin Yiyi pretended to be innocent and said, "I said no and it means no, Brother Xiao Yu, do you look down on me like this?" She was not going to take out the money from selling blood, and of course she would not allow Xiao Yu to borrow money. In this way...how could this ungrateful person study?
Xiao Yu: "I didn't, I know you are a hardworking girl."
Lin Yiyi: "It turns out that Brother Xiao Yu has been secretly following me. I'm so happy."
Xiao Yu: "..."
Grandma Xiao: "You...what are you doing?" Grandma Xiao looked at the two of them. Her grandson, who was always serious, was hugging his granddaughter-in-law. Was this...good things coming? Was the grandson missing his wife?
Xiao Yu hurriedly pushed Lin Yiyi away, but stopped himself. The girl was so weak that she would definitely fall if he pushed her. "Da Ya, I'll help you to the bed. You take a rest first."
Lin Yiyi choked up and said, "Brother Xiao Yu, my legs are weak and I can't stand up. Can you...can you carry me to the bed?"
Xiao Yu: "..." Why does he think this girl's legs are not soft? He must have too many ideas.
Lin Yiyi: "Brother Xiao Yu?"
Xiao Yu picked up Lin Yiyi and gently put her on the bed, then picked up the ceramic cup beside him and said, "Drink the ginseng tea first. It's good stuff and good for your body. But it's a little hot, so drink it slowly."
Lin Yiyi took the ceramic cup: "Thank you, Brother Xiao Yu, thank you, Grandma Xiao."
Grandma Xiao said, "We are a family, don't be so polite, Da Ya."
Lin Yiyi nodded.
Xiao Yu: "Then take your time drinking. I'm going to go out. Call me if you need anything." Although they are an engaged couple, it is still a bit awkward for them to stay in the same room.
Lin Yiyi nodded: "Brother Xiao Yu, don't worry, I won't be polite to you."
After Xiao Yu and Grandma Xiao left, Lin Yiyi sat at the head of the bed and thought about something. She didn't understand how she got into the book, or the drama?
But no matter if it was a book or a TV series, since the great god of time travel had favored her, she would definitely get some benefits, right? So, Lin Yiyi called out in her heart: "System... Hello... Is the system here..."
After calling for a few minutes, there was no response. Lin Yiyi knew that traveling through time with a system or space was just a novel. Not everyone who was favored by the god of time travel could be the heroine. Oh no, she was indeed the heroine. Daya was indeed the heroine of this book or this drama, but... she was a saint heroine.
Lin Yiyi is a rational person. She graduated from university at the age of 23 and worked in a listed real estate group for five years. Five years of work experience is enough to smooth out her simplicity and naivety. Moreover, if she is still simple and naive at the age of 28, she is either pretending or mentally retarded. Obviously, she is neither of the two.
Lin Yiyi began to ponder. It was now late August of 1960. By the next year, the food problem would be gradually solved and there would be very few people dying of starvation. But for her, her problem was not only facing the famine, but also the problem of the Lin family. Lin Yiyi was not the saintly mother that Daya was. It was impossible for her to sacrifice herself to raise the brothers of the Lin family. Knowing the plot, she did not want to care about the other four brothers except for the fifth brother Lin. If the four brothers had a conscience, she would have taken over Daya's body. From a moral point of view, she was indeed responsible for the four brothers, but it was obvious that the four brothers were ungrateful.
But how can I ignore my brother without being gossiped about?
In this era, the reason why sisters who support their brothers exist is because everyone thinks that it is natural for a sister to sacrifice for her brother without any compensation. If she ignores the four younger brothers of the Lin family for no reason, she will definitely be gossiped about, so...how can she make others think that it is the fault of the Lin brothers when she ignores them?
Soon, Lin Yiyi had an idea in her mind.
After coming up with the idea, she calmed down and started drinking ginseng tea. There were only two ginseng slices in it, and there was no ginseng taste in the tea, but in this era, this was the best thing that could save lives.
In fact, Daya's life started to become dark after her parents passed away. Before the famine, her parents had not died, and Daya was also happy. Although she was a concubine, as her parents' first child, this flower symbolized the result of her parents' second child. Besides, she was engaged to Xiao Yu not long after she was born. The Xiao family had good conditions and they were engaged to concubines for that reason, so the Lin family's parents thought that concubines were blessed. Later, Lin's mother's second child was twin sons, and she felt even more that this was a blessing from her daughter. So the Lin family's parents treated this daughter even better. Therefore, in an era when girls were worthless, Daya was one of the few girls who could go to school.
After Daya went to school, Lin's parents sent the twins, who were two years younger than Daya, to school as well. This way, when they were at work, Daya could take care of the twins at school.
Therefore, in September this year, not only the twins will be in the first grade of junior high school, but Daya will also be in the first grade of junior high school.
Lin Yiyi sighed. It was impossible to continue studying. If she stopped studying, she would not have to think about the ungrateful people. After drinking the ginseng tea, Lin Yiyi felt drowsy again. She put the ceramic cup on the stool and slowly fell asleep again.
Lin Yiyi slept till evening and hadn't woken up yet.
Grandma Xiao and Xiao Yu didn't call her either.
In the evening, the Xiao family came back, led by Qin Xiangju, and the family carried a backpack, which was slightly heavy, as if they had a good harvest. However, when they saw Xiao Yu chopping wood in the yard, the Xiao family was stunned.
Qin Xiangju came forward happily: "Xiao Yu'er, why are you back?"
Xiao Yu took the backpack off Qin Xiangju's back and said, "I've changed my job and returned home."
Grandma Xiao said, "Not only did he come back, he also brought Daya back."
Qin Xiangju's heart sank. Could it be that she was here to ask for food? "Daya is here?" The family did have some food in stock, but it was life-saving food, and they themselves were reluctant to eat it. Now they were eating wild vegetables and fruits. There were no wild vegetables and fruits on the mountains around the village. The family walked a long way to pick wild vegetables and fruits on the uninhabited hills. They went out early in the morning and came back in the evening. So they really didn't want to give up the food.
Xiao Yu said: "Something happened to Daya, so I brought her here..." Then he recounted what had happened.
Qin Xiangju's voice suddenly rose: "What? Selling blood? Lin Erjun, that little bastard, actually tempted Daya to sell blood. Daya is also a fool."
