Chapter 1: Traveling through 1977...
Autumn, 1977
"Hey! Is the daughter of the old Gu family still awake?"
"Is there any need to ask? This young lady always sleeps until the sun shines on her butt."
"Haha, they both had the wrong child, but the one who came back from Old Chen's house is more capable than an old ox. He got up at five in the morning to make medicine for Old Chen, and at ten in the evening he was still pasting paper boxes to earn money to supplement the family income."
"The old Gu family is in big trouble. This girl sleeps until she wakes up naturally every day and does nothing. She also wants to eat white flour and meat every day. This is not a daughter, she is even worse than the ancestor."
"Not only that! I heard that this girl is very mean and has been targeting Daya (Xu Ruyu) every day at the factory director's house. It's really bold for a fake girl to do evil to the real daughter."
"Oh! If she didn't have a bad conscience, why would the factory director chase her away? He has raised her for eighteen years. Even though she is not a biological child, the factory director's family can afford to support her."
"Oh my god, it's true that one rice breeds a hundred kinds of people. Xiaoru treats the girl from the Chen family like a real sister, and then look at the girl from the Gu family, it's really... Comparison makes people angry."
"It's not surprising. That girl is a person who hates being poor and loves rich. After the paternity test, Caihe from the Chen family came back on her own initiative. What about this girl? The factory director's family couldn't chase her away, so she came back. These past few days, she has been running to the factory director's wife every day to want to go back. It is said that she even cried a lot. It's so embarrassing."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. If I were Old Gu, looking at Old Chen's house and then my own, I would probably have vomited to death."
…
The two aunties outside the window were still chatting animatedly, but inside the house, Gu Ruyi, knowing that they were talking about her, acted as if she didn't hear anything, staring blankly at the beams covered with cobwebs and dust.
Gu Ruyi is very confused now...
She didn't understand. She just had a sleep, but why when she woke up, she caught up with the trend of the army of time travelers and traveled through time.
Just travel through time! She actually lived through the 1970s when there was a shortage of clothing and food.
Not only was this era poor, but more importantly, she traveled through a novel and was in the control group of the heroine!
Although both are fake daughters, the heroine is diligent and capable. She takes care of her sick parents and sick siblings, and she also has a handsome and rich boyfriend. After the reform, she opened her own shop and factory, becoming the first female entrepreneur with a net worth of over 100 million after the reform. Everyone who mentions her has to give her a thumbs up.
Gu Ruyi is a negative example. She is greedy and vain. After knowing the truth, she is unwilling to leave the home of her powerful adoptive parents. After the real daughter returns home, she uses all kinds of tricks to target her. She even dreams of getting her hands on the real daughter's fiancé. After doing this a thousand times, she is finally driven back home by her adoptive parents who can no longer tolerate her.
After returning to her poor home, the supporting female character naturally became even more restless, but her biological parents didn't love her at all. After experiencing a series of misbehaviors by the supporting female character, they married her off to a remote mountainous area.
From then on, the female supporting character never moved to the city again. She gave birth to a son a year in a remote mountainous area, but died of complications during childbirth when she gave birth to her fourth son.
Gu Ruyi shuddered when she saw the ending of the supporting actress. As a person with the same name and surname as the supporting actress, she felt really uncomfortable when she saw the ending of the supporting actress and felt that the author and the supporting actress had a grudge against each other.
Also, because the ending of the female supporting role was too unfriendly, she simply gave up the show.
But Gu Ruyi never expected that she would be so unlucky as to be transported into the control group.
Thinking about the plot, the supporting actress had one child a year and died in childbirth. Rather than end up like that, Gu Ruyi felt that she might as well die now.
"well……"
After a while...
With a long sigh, Gu Ruyi decided to cheer up.
Death is just a thought. As the saying goes, a good death is worse than a miserable life. Besides, her situation is not that bad.
Knowing the plot of the novel, she would never let herself die in childbirth.
Besides, she has a golden finger!
Thinking of his golden finger, Gu Ruyi silently said in his mind, "System, sign in."
【bite! Sign in at Gu's house using 1 sign-in point, and receive four feet of coarse cloth, four pounds of corn flour, and four yuan in cash. 】
As the system broadcast ended, Gu Ruyi discovered that a piece of green cotton cloth, a bowl of cornmeal, and four brand new one-yuan bills appeared in the system backpack.
Seeing that the banknote was from the third set of RMB, Gu Ruyi smiled with satisfaction.
Her sign-in system was bound to her a month ago. When Gu Ruyi signed in for the first time, she signed in five kilograms of rice, five kilograms of millet, five kilograms of corn, five kilograms of sweet potatoes and five yuan, but what she signed in at that time was the fifth set of RMB.
After that, Gu Ruyi signed in twice more. Once in a shopping mall, she got a full set of cosmetics and a set of pure cotton four-piece set, and once in a supermarket, she got a gift pack of spicy noodles and a box of eight-treasure porridge.
Because there were too few materials to sign in, Gu Ruyi, a wealthy woman whose family had ten houses demolished, had no shortage of them at all. After a few days, she forgot about the sign-in system.
But if you travel back to the 1970s, the sign-in system can play a big role. In this era, materials are scarce, and a foot of cloth or a pound of rice can play a big role.
What's more, the system allows signing in at different locations every day. It can be said that with the sign-in system, Gu Ruyi didn't have to worry about going hungry in the 1970s when supplies were scarce.
However, when he signed in for the money just now, Gu Ruyi thought that the money he signed in was the fifth set of RMB, and it was a pity that he couldn't spend it.
Unexpectedly, the system was quite flexible and in the 1970s it became the third set of RMB. Now, not only did she not have to worry about food and drink, she also did not have to worry about running out of money.
Hey! Wait, she traveled through time not long after she bound to the system. Could this be the system's fault?
Gu Ruyi narrowed her peach blossom eyes and stared at the system backpack without blinking.
But she didn't ask, because after a month of experimentation, Gu Ruyi discovered that the system was just a stand-alone system that only knew how to sign in and provide supplies, and never communicated with Gu Ruyi, so even if she asked, there would be no result.
I just hope that the time travel has nothing to do with the system!
If it matters, she will dismantle the system sooner or later.
Sign-in system: ...It is even more unfair than Dou E.
After lying in bed for a few more minutes, Gu Ruyi finally got up.
Because the original owner died of a high fever, Gu Ruyi felt light all over and a little dizzy when she sat up.
Fortunately, her fever has subsided now, and all she needs to do from now on is take good care of herself.
After getting out of bed with difficulty, Gu Ruyi poured a large bowl of warm water from the slightly faded big red thermos and drank it all in one gulp.
After quenching his thirst, Gu Ruyi took out a bottle of eight-treasure porridge from the system for breakfast.
After eating and drinking, Gu Ruyi noticed that her whole body was sticky because of the fever she had last night.
My hair was full of sweat and even smelled bad.
If she didn't take a shower, Gu Ruyi would definitely not be able to eat lunch.
She hurried to get the money and planned to go to the bathhouse to take a bath.
However……
After seeing that there was only thirty-six cents in the wallet embroidered with lilies, Gu Ruyi fell silent.
Only then did she remember that because the original owner had hurt the real daughter, the original owner's adoptive parents were furious and took back all the watches, bicycles and pocket money they had given to the original owner, leaving only the original owner with clothes.
The thirty-six cents in the wallet was secretly given to the original owner by her younger brother while wiping his tears when she left.
Thirty-six cents, plus the five dollars that the system just signed in, rounding it off is only six dollars.
Six dollars, even in the 1970s, this amount of money wouldn’t last for a few days…
After the demolition, she always had hundreds of thousands of yuan in her pocket. Gu Ruyi, who had never been so poor before, wanted to cry...
…………
It took a long time for Gu Ruyi to calm down.
She could only comfort herself in her heart that although she had lost her money, she was at least several years younger.
Time is money’s worth. I have become several years younger, so this can be considered as... a profit!
Woo woo woo…
It still hurts so much, her house, her money!
After mourning in her heart for a full minute, Gu Ruyi went out with clean clothes.
It was painful to lose money, but if she didn't clean herself up immediately, Gu Ruyi suspected she would go crazy.
The sound of Gu Ruyi opening the door startled two middle-aged women who were washing clothes next to the well.
The two aunts felt a little guilty after being caught saying bad things about someone behind their back.
But as soon as they saw Gu Ruyi's face, the two aunts flashed a look of disgust in their eyes at the same time.
The main reason was that Gu Ruyi was so charming, with a face like a hibiscus peach blossom, a pointed chin, fair skin, curved eyebrows, and a pair of eyes full of sparkle. Coupled with her curvy figure that even a thick cotton-padded jacket could not hide, she was definitely a hot goddess decades later.
But in the 1970s, Gu Ruyi's appearance was very unpopular.
The look of disdain was too obvious, so Gu Ruyi rolled her eyes without hesitation.
This made the two aunts very angry. One of them immediately said to the other aunt, "Guiying, there is a vixen in our yard. You must take good care of your son when you go back. Don't let him be seduced by the vixen by accident.
Her son sounded like he was obsessed with lust. Aunt Wang's face darkened and she shouted unhappily, "Xiangcao, don't talk nonsense. My son likes hardworking, capable girls with big butts. He doesn't like girls as skinny as a stick like this."
"I think you should pay attention to your grandson! Your grandson can't walk when he sees a woman. He always follows the White Widow in our compound. If he sees this person, I'm afraid he would agree to his life if someone asks for it."
Li Xiangcao thought of her disappointing grandson and immediately gnashed her teeth and said, "If he dares to provoke the vixen, I will break his legs."
Gu Ruyi, who was completely despised, said: "..."
Oh! These two old ladies didn't take her seriously at all! He never said bad things behind her back.
If she could tolerate this, she would be no different from the Ninja Turtles.
Gu Ruyi's eyes flashed with coldness, and she looked at Wang Guixiang with a half-smile, "Auntie Wang, I heard that your son's fifteenth blind date failed again. Why?"
"And Aunt Li, I heard that your three grandsons are planning to marry into your family. Is this true?"
Wang Guixiang/Li Xiangcao: “Pfft…”
The two old ladies in their fifties felt as if they were hit by an arrow in the chest at the same time and almost vomited blood.
But the two of them couldn't think of any rebuttal for a moment, because Gu Ruyi didn't say anything bad, she just said some sincere words.
But sincerity is the ultimate weapon! !
Seeing the two talkative old ladies shaking with anger, Gu Ruyi suddenly felt refreshed. He smiled heartily and turned away.
As for why Gu Ruyi knows so much, haha! Of course I learned this from reading novels.
In the novel, Wang Guixiang and Li Xiangcao's families are two unique families in the slum.
The son of the Wang family looks like a bald man, but he wants to marry a swan all day long. He has been on blind dates for more than a dozen times but has never been successful. Later, he overestimates his own abilities and sets his sights on the heroine, who is then thrown into jail by the hero and never comes out.
Not to mention Li Xiangcao's family. All three grandsons became live-in sons-in-law, and they were all poor and stingy. They followed the saying "a son who is married off is like water spilled" to the end, and were reluctant to bring back even a piece of vegetable leaf, which made Li Xiangcao very angry.
Gu Ruyi was deeply impressed by these two excellent families, and naturally she could accurately hit the sore spots of these two old ladies.
Feeling like he had won a battle, Gu Ruyi walked in a heroic and high-spirited manner.
However, perhaps it was her bad luck that was against her today, and she met the heroine again not long after she walked away.
