"How do you know this?"
Meng Yuanzheng sat up in shock, his voice trembling a little, his expression looking slightly happy and slightly surprised.
The noise he made when he stood up was so loud that the bed creaked and shook.
Lin Miaoyin also sat up and sat face to face with him, and was a little frightened by the strange expression on his face.
What's going on? This is crying and laughing.
"You, what's wrong with you?"
She waved her hand in front of his eyes. Meng Yuanzheng didn't answer her. He covered his eyes with his hands, let out a sigh of relief, and fell down. He just lay there, continuing to cry and laugh, with his mouth slightly open and his throat rolling.
It’s over, it’s over. This guy is begging like crazy.
She quickly crawled to his side, knelt down beside him, shook his shoulders, and said anxiously, "Tell me what's wrong with you! Don't be so scary!"
Meng Yuanzheng grabbed her arm with his other hand, took it from his body and put it on the quilt, meaning don't touch me.
"I'm fine, go to sleep." He steadied his voice and pulled the quilt over himself.
Lin Miaoyin...
She really wanted to punch him a few times through the quilt, but she held back and lay down with a lot of questions in her mind.
Not long after, there was a heavy storm outside, and it was a little cold in the room. Lin Miaoyin wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and gently kicked him with her foot, but there was no movement, and it seemed that he had fallen asleep.
I was planning to tell him about the college entrance examination, what the hell is this?
When I woke up the next day, it was still drizzling and the room was dim. I lay there without wanting to move or make breakfast.
She called Meng Yuanzheng a few more times, and a dazed, nasal “Hmm?” came from the other side.
Inexplicably adorable, Lin Miaoyin's heart softened. She sat up and crawled over again, poking him through the quilt, "Are you awake?"
"Yeah, I'm awake."
"Tell me what happened last night." He asked in a voice as soft as possible.
Meng Yuanzheng turned sideways to look at her, his eyes brighter, and he actually lowered his eyes and smiled slightly.
Lin Miaoyin was completely confused. Something really happened to this guy.
"Are you feeling unwell? Get up, let's go to the clinic."
She put the back of her hand on his forehead and it seemed like he didn't have a fever.
"Let's talk about the resumption of the college entrance examination." He had just gotten up, and his voice was a little hoarse. He sat up, stretched out his arms, pulled his coat that was draped over the chair, and put it on Lin Miaoyin, then leaned against the head of the bed.
Lin Miaoyin pulled up her sleeves and smelled it. It smelled nothing but soap. She said, "You have to tell me first whether you believe I can predict the future."
"Yes," he confirmed.
Lin Miaoyin smiled and said, "I just had a dream." She bent down, leaned close to him and whispered, "I dreamed that the policy will change next year. Not only will the college entrance examination be restored, but the production brigade will also slowly change."
She leaned close to him, her breath sprayed on his neck, and she straightened up after she finished speaking. Meng Yuanzheng touched his neck silently, "Do you want to take the college entrance examination?"
In her previous life, she only graduated from a junior college, and it has been so many years since she graduated that she has forgotten everything.
Besides, the college entrance examination admission rate is so low in this era, so she would not join in the fun. But Meng Yuanzheng is different. His family is well-off and his parents are both intellectuals. Combined with the description in the original work, he later became an official. As long as he prepares well this year, he has a great chance of passing the exam.
She tightened her coat and said, "I'm not that capable. I just want you to take the exam. Aren't your parents both educated people?"
"Then can you predict whether I can pass the exam?" Meng Yuanzheng asked.
"This, this is random. I can't predict it just because I want to." She lied, "If I can predict everything, wouldn't I be a god?"
"That's true." Meng Yuanzheng seemed to be thinking about something. "According to what you said, I should start preparing now."
"Yes, the earlier you prepare, the better chance you have, but..."
"But what?"
"But if you pass the exam, you can't abandon me and run to the city to find foreign girls."
"Ahem." Meng Yuanzheng was choked by her words, "What foreign girl? What are you thinking about?"
Lin Miaoyin put down her coat and lay back down, curling up in the quilt. "I don't want to get up. What time is it?"
Meng Yuanzheng looked at it. It was past eight in the morning and he didn't want to move. He had carried something yesterday and his shoulders were a little sore today.
The two of them curled up for a while. At around ten o'clock in the morning, Meng Yuanzheng got up, put on his coat, opened the door, and with a creaking sound, the fine rain outside dripped down the eaves, creating puddles on the ground.
Lin Miaoyin woke up in a daze, got out of bed, and saw Meng Yuanzheng standing facing the rain curtain, feeling the cold wind. Combined with his tall figure, there was quite a sense of wind whistling and the Yishui River being cold.
When she got closer, he didn't come back to his senses. She followed his gaze and saw a wide field in front of her and towering mountains in the distance. The mist and rain were hazy and the green hills were in the distance.
She reached out and cautiously poked him.
Meng Yuanzheng came back to his senses, his eyes fell on her face, and he frowned, "Put on your coat, it's cold."
"Oh." She obediently went back to put on her coat, "What are you having for lunch?"
"Noodles?" Meng Yuanzheng said as he looked up at the place where it leaked last time. It had been repaired and was no longer leaking.
"Okay, then I'll go knead the dough." She put on her clothes and was about to go out, but Meng Yuanzheng grabbed her clothes.
He said helplessly, "I haven't washed yet."
Lin Miaoyin...
"I'll knead the dough first and let it wake up before washing it. You go ahead."
Pulling her clothes back on, she carefully avoided the mud puddles, protecting her cloth shoes from getting wet. She went to the kitchen, kneaded the dough first, covered it, then fetched some water to brush her teeth and wash her face.
Meng Yuanzheng had finished washing and was sharpening the knife obediently.
Sit on a small stool, place the whetstone, wet the hatchet, put it on the grindstone, and start sharpening it in an orderly manner.
By the time the used hatchet had been sharpened to a metallic luster, Lin Miaoyin had already made the noodles.
After they finished eating, around one in the afternoon, it had stopped raining and there was even a slight sun. Lin Miaoyin prepared to go to the Lin family's house to catch chicks. Cui Fen said yesterday that the hens at home were carrying chicks.
Meng Yuanzheng put on a straw hat and a raincoat and went up the mountain to cut bamboo and weave chicken coops.
Nowadays, people are all poor and all available resources have been used up. Take bamboo for example. The bamboo on the nearby hills has been cut down, and even the bamboo shoots buried deep in the ground have been dug out and eaten.
To cut bamboo, one must go deep into the mountains. Naturally, Lin Miaoyin was worried about him going alone, so she wanted to ask her eldest brother Lin Miaojun to accompany him. But when they arrived at the Lin family, they found out that it was a rare day without anything to do. Lin Miaojun went to the county town to buy some nutritional supplements for Cui Fen to replenish her body, as the baby was due in a few months.
"Then I'll go with you, and we'll catch chickens tomorrow." Lin Miaoyin said.
Lin's mother also said, "It rained heavily last night, and the ravine must be flooded. Don't go to Shaozi Bay."
The mountains on the other side of Shaozi Bay are steep and the road is difficult to walk on.
"Okay. Let's not go any deeper. Let's just cut some bamboo." She took off her hat and raincoat and put them on. She borrowed a hatchet from the Lin family, put on the backpack for carrying chickens, and walked towards the back mountain with Meng Yuanzheng.
Niutou Bay is backed by deep mountains with rolling hills. There are always many legends about the mountains. Since ancient times, people living at the foot of the mountains have had a reverent feeling towards the mountains.
The two of them were wearing rubber shoes, which were not slippery, but there was mud on their feet, which felt heavy.
"If we come here in a few days, maybe we can pick some mushrooms and lichens to eat."
Lin Miaoyin smelled the fresh air of the forest after the rain and felt refreshed.
As we walked further inside, there were only narrow paths covered with lush weeds. The bamboos had basically been cut down, and only the big trees were public property and could not be moved at will.
Lin Miaoyin walked into the deep mountains along the mossy bluestone road that was built in who knows when. She was very careful for fear of slipping. Meng Yuanzheng even found a branch to explore the way to avoid stepping on any mollusks.
"Give me your hand." He stopped and held out his hand to her.
Lin Miaoyin wanted nothing more than to cling to him, and she felt more at ease being held tightly by him.
After walking for a while, I heard a loud rumbling sound of water coming from a distance.
It rained heavily last night and the rain water from the mountains gathered into the ravine, forming a small waterfall.
"Right there, there are bamboos."
They were almost at the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain was not high, only a few hundred meters, and there was a bamboo cage not far away.
They walked closer and took a look. They found that this bamboo was suitable for weaving bamboo articles.
"You take a rest, I'll do the chopping." Meng Yuanzheng said.
"Cut four or five, and we can make some baskets out of them. If there are more, we won't be able to haul them. If there are fewer, they will surely be cut down by others next time, and they won't grow back until next spring."
Meng Yuanzheng took out a hatchet from his backpack, put on gloves, found a position where he could steady his body, chose a good place to cut, and started chopping with the hatchet.
Lin Miaoyin walked around the top of the mountain to see if there were any wild fruits or the like.
Looking forward from this hilltop, you can see the fields and villages of Niutouwan, and looking back, you can see towering mountains. There is also a low-lying valley below, as if someone is busy there.
She looked at it carefully for a few times and recalled that this was a coal mine that had been discovered not long ago. The commune was in charge and organized everyone to dig coal. They could dig ten centimeters a day and also provided meals.
There were a lot of people below. She looked at the mountain in front of her and suddenly remembered something. This thing scared her so much that she hurried back to find Meng Yuanzheng who was cutting bamboo.
"Quick, quick, stop chopping, let's go down the mountain to the coal mine!"
"What's wrong?" Meng Yuanzheng stopped and saw that she looked anxious. He did not dare to delay. He put the hatchet back into the backpack, took off his gloves, put the backpack on his back and followed her.
"I can predict some things. Just now it suddenly came to my mind. I predicted that the hill above the coal mine opposite will collapse and block the outside of the mine. Let's go down quickly to save people." Lin Miaoyin said as she walked.
"What time is it now?"
Meng Yuanzheng raised his wrist and looked at it. "Two-thirty."
There was less than an hour left until this happened.
"Slow down, don't slip." Meng Yuanzheng grabbed her hand.
Lin Miaoyin's mind was full of thoughts about the original plot.
The original work says that the hero, Kim Sung-in, is digging coal in this coal mine. His coworkers and many other men in the same team are not supposed to go to work because it is raining today. However, because of the targets given by their superiors, the people who manage the coal mine see that it has stopped raining and the sun is out, so they let them continue to work.
There was no professional technical guidance, and they did not explore the terrain and rock structure, but just dug a mine in the traditional way. They did not realize that after a heavy rain, the soil became loose and heavy.
There were no accidents when it rained before, but as the excavation deepened, the mountain structure was gradually destroyed, and landslides and collapses occurred.
In the original work, several people died because of this accident. The male protagonist's leg was broken while saving people. Everyone else was buried in the cave. When the manager saw what happened, he ran away to save his own life.
In the end, the male protagonist dragged his almost lame leg down the mountain to find Secretary Li and rescued the people, but there were still heavy casualties.
This incident is a huge catalyst for the relationship between the male and female protagonists.
The male protagonist with a broken leg received commendation and rewards, but his leg may develop a chronic disease. The most important thing is that he is depressed. His family members even called him stupid. He had the chance to run away, but he insisted on being a hero and saving people. Did the people he saved come to thank him?
Look at this little consolation money, it’s not enough to treat your leg!
It was the heroine who illuminated a ray of light in the hero's dark world. She encouraged him to cheer up, taught him how to rehabilitate scientifically, gave him massages, and even went to the commune to demand public funds to treat the hero's legs, otherwise she would write a letter to report him.
She fought for the male protagonist to get treatment in a big hospital, and gave him fighting spirit, and finally his leg was healed.
During this period, the male protagonist fell deeply in love with this woman who was as bright as the sun.
Although this is the plot of the original work, Lin Miaoyin cannot just sit there and do nothing. She must prevent this accident from happening. After all, she is in this world now, and those who died are all living people.
Fortunately, Meng Yuanzheng believed her words unconditionally and followed her without any hesitation. She felt warm in her heart.
It took half an hour to get from the top of the mountain to the coal mine. The sun was warm and the mine was bustling with activity.
The administrator is a relative of an official and thinks he has some power. He just stands outside in the sun and supervises the people inside as they work.
Seeing two strangers, a man and a woman, he frowned and said impatiently, "We are no longer hiring here, go back."
Really, why do people always come wanting to do this job? I've told you the quota is full, but they still come. I don't know how the team leader and secretary arrange it.
"Comrade, we are here for an important matter. Just now, we saw signs of landslide on that hill. Please ask them to come out immediately to avoid an irreversible accident." Lin Miaoyin said, pointing to the two hills.
The administrator looked at the two of them, a young boy and a girl, what did they know about a landslide? He looked up at the mountain above his head, it was fine, there was nothing there.
He came in broad daylight to say something unlucky.
"What are you two saying, you two devils? Get out of here now."
"How can you talk like that, comrade?" Meng Yuanzheng said in a deep voice.
"This is how I talk. Don't you understand when I tell you to get out?" the administrator said.
"What we said is true. There really is going to be a landslide and the mine will collapse. If you don't call them out, will you be able to take responsibility if something happens?" Lin Miaoyin asked angrily.
The time was almost up, and she even felt that the stones and soil above had become loose. She was extremely panicked. What kind of administrators were still talking nonsense here?
"Hey, you little bitch, don't force me to slap you!" The administrator was also angered.
At this moment, a female voice suddenly came from behind, "Miaoyin? Brother Meng, why are you here?"
The author has something to say: I'm late today, so here's a fat chapter
I feel like everyone supports me
