What can Qin Siyue say? She can't say anything.
He turned over and changed the subject: "Mom, you read so many novels, are there any that teach people how to gain superpowers?"
Chen Yunwei was amused by her daughter's train of thought and raised her hand to pinch her little face: "You also said it was a novel!"
Qin Siyue hummed, "My dad, who came back from the apocalypse, doesn't have any special abilities. How could an ordinary person like me possibly have any? I'm just delusional."
Chen Yunwei patted her hand and said, "Relax, there will always be a way out when you reach the mountain, and you will find your way back when you reach the bridge.
"Perhaps the higher-ups have already noticed something's amiss in Yang County and are waiting to arrest someone. Let's not worry about this!"
Qin Siyue nodded, leaned against Chen Yunwei, and fell asleep soon.
When I woke up again, it was already noon. When I went out, I saw the old lady's face full of joy.
"Ah, wake up, Da Ya and Er Ya, hurry up and pour some water for your uncle and aunt. Look at the dark circles under his eyes, my son has worked so hard!"
Qin Jianye nodded, told the two girls not to rush, and found a place to sit.
Chen Yunwei and Qin Siyue were the same. They had just woken up and were still a little dizzy. They sat in the yard in a daze, basking in the sun.
"It doesn't seem as cold today as yesterday!" Qin Siyue said.
Chen Yun nodded slightly: "How can it keep getting colder? It's almost the end of March!"
Qin Siyue thought back to his past life. In March, people seemed to be able to wear light clothing. It seemed that the temperature in the 1960s was indeed low.
The old lady brought out three bowls of porridge from the kitchen and glared at Qin Siyue: "You have no sense at all. You don't even know to go to the kitchen to get food for your parents!"
Qin Siyue lowered his head and reflected deeply on himself. It seemed that he was a little out of his element.
He apologized with a smile: "Grandma, I will be more careful next time!"
The old lady didn't bother with her and put the bowl of porridge with the least rice grains in front of her.
After Qin Siyue thanked him, he picked up the bowl and drank.
I thought it would be tasteless and irritating like before, but it turned out to be sweet and the sorghum rice was especially soft.
Qin Siyue gave a thumbs up: "Grandma, your cooking skills are superb today. This porridge is so delicious!"
The old lady's lips curled up slightly, but she quickly suppressed it. She snorted coldly, "You just flatter me!"
Qin Siyue didn't care and drank the porridge in a hurry. He waited for a while for Qin Jianye and Chen Yunwei before taking the bowls of the three of them to the kitchen and rinsing them with cold water.
Of course, the whole process was supervised by the old lady, who directed Qin Siyue around in circles. It was obviously a very simple matter, but the old lady always found some faults.
For example, too much water was used, the dishes were not wiped dry, etc.
Qin Siyue ran around and lost his temper. After finally finishing it, he returned to the main hall and didn't want to talk anymore.
Seeing her listless appearance, Chen Yunwei smiled, thinking that it was time to let this delicate little flower endure some storms.
Qin Siyue paused for two minutes and asked a question: "Dad, why are my two cousins called Da Ya and Er Ya, but I am called Chou Ya?"
According to the ranking, shouldn’t it be Sanya?
Qin Jianye touched his nose awkwardly. Seeing that the old lady didn't come in, he lowered his voice and said, "When your mother was pregnant with you, your grandmother asked many people, and they all said that the baby in her belly was a lucky star who could bring the Qin family great success.
Your grandma was so happy that she boasted to everyone she met. But she didn't expect it to be a girl, and her face changed immediately."
Even after so many years, Qin Jianye still has a vivid memory of what happened back then.
That year, Chen Yunwei had a difficult birth. The old lady prayed and paced at the door of the delivery room. When she heard the baby cry, she was so moved that tears came to her eyes.
The midwife came out and congratulated him: "Big sister, congratulations, it's a baby girl!"
"What, you little bitch?"
Well, that's how Qin Siyue got her nickname. Because the old lady's dream of being a lucky star was shattered, she was angry and just called her "stinky girl".
This was originally how it was supposed to be written on the household registration book, but Ms. Chen Yunwei was not happy about it and argued for it, so it was changed to Siyue, a nice name that sounds delicate and quiet.
Qin Siyue was puzzled: "Who said that the lucky star must be a man?"
Qin Jianye spread his hands: "Who knows!" Perhaps it was the deep-rooted idea of favoring boys over girls that was at work.
Neither of them was bothered by this question. Qin Siyue asked, "What about Daya and Erya? If they don't know their full names, they can just call them Qin Daya and Qin Erya!"
Qin Jianye gave her a look that said "you know what I mean." Qin Siyue was even more shocked. She thought to herself, why? The boy's name is so good, but the girl is treated like a weed.
I immediately went back to my room, trying to find my textbooks so I could teach my two cousins how to read. Using knowledge to change one's destiny.
In the end, there was nothing. Her book was in the city and she didn't bring it back.
If you go to get it now, you probably won't be able to get it. Housing is tight in the city, and as soon as her house is vacated, someone will move in immediately.
Her textbooks must have been sold as junk long ago.
Qin Jianye comforted him: "It's okay, Dad will go to the city this afternoon and see if he can get you a complete set of textbooks at the scrap yard."
"Dad, I'll go with you to see if there's any Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry Self-Study Series!"
Qin Jianye was stunned, then burst into laughter.
He stroked the soft yellow hair on Qin Siyue's head and said, "My daughter, the 1962 self-study series hasn't been compiled yet. Wait until next year, and Dad will go to the bookstore to buy it for you!"
Qin Siyue was embarrassed and raised his hand to rub his nose. The father and son's movements were too similar.
After the matter was settled, the father and daughter went back to the house to change clothes. Chen Yunwei hurried to catch up, saying that she also wanted to go to the county.
Since we were free anyway, we might as well go together. The family of three put on their most ragged and filthy clothes, messed up their hair, and then came out of the house, ready to leave.
As a result, before he stepped out of the door, he was stopped by Qin Jiandang.
"Third brother, I know it's been a tough time for you. Here, take this. You've worked so hard!"
Qin Jiandang stuffed a bunch of banknotes into Qin Jianye's pocket. Although it wasn't worth much, it was a token of his appreciation.
Qin Jianye took it and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother, as long as I have something to eat, my family won't starve to death."
This was his promise. For the sake of his original identity, he would save his family's lives, but he would not guarantee that they would have enough food and water.
Qin Jiandang didn't know what was going on in the mind of his changed third brother. He nodded with emotion and said, "Thank you for your help!"
Qin Jianye said "hmm" and strode away. However, he was caught up by Qin Jianjun at the village entrance.
The three Qin brothers all had distinct personalities. The eldest was honest and simple, the second was cunning and cunning, and the third was aloof and proud.
Look, Qin Jiandang's private money is only 7.92 yuan, while Qin Jianjun's private money is 25.8 yuan, which is two or three times more.
"San'er, I know you have connections, take this money and buy whatever you want.
If you can bring something delicate, please bring something delicate. Your nephew has had a poor appetite these past few days and wants to eat something rare.
But don't take any chances. Even if you can't buy anything, don't throw the money away. My second brother is relying on this little fortune to get by."
Qin Jianye looked indifferent and put the money in his pocket.
Qin Jianjun worriedly warned: "Be careful, don't let anyone steal or rob you!"
