Chapter 137 Returning to My Hometown



Feng Qianqian learned about the earthquake from the radio.

I only remembered this after hearing about the major earthquake in Tang City.

Feng Qianqian regretted it so much she almost broke her thigh.

"If I had remembered earlier, I could have earned merit and wouldn't have had to go to the labor camp." Feng Qianqian was so angry that she couldn't eat. She was furious that she could have left this hellish place but missed the chance.

Feng Qianqian was unhappy and didn't work hard, which made the person in charge very unhappy with her. Feng Qianqian was still not convinced and wanted to quit. She was beaten by others and her ribs were broken. If she hadn't been pulled away by the detainees, she probably would have been beaten to death.

Yun Jin was unaware of Feng Qianqian's situation. Taking advantage of He Tingchuan's vacation, she handed Xiao Niangao over to He Tingchuan and wrote a letter of introduction to go out for a trip.

Going out now is different from later generations; you can go anywhere with just an ID card.

Now you need a letter of introduction, and you can't just run around.

Yun Jin wants to visit her hometown.

He Tingchuan thought she had returned to the hometown of the first wife, but in fact she had returned to her own hometown, which was not the same as the hometown of the cannon fodder first wife.

After watching Yun Jin leave, He Tingchuan played with Xiao Niangao to distract her.

Yun Jin almost couldn't resist running off the train after boarding it.

Since transmigrating into the book, she has never been separated from Xiao Niangao. Now, in order to wean her baby, they will have to be separated for a few days. As a mother, it is impossible for her not to miss her.

Once the car drove away, Yun Jin could only suppress her longing.

The bag in her arms was prepared by He Tingchuan; he bought her food to eat on the train.

When Yun Jin arrived at the train station, she changed the train ticket that He Tingchuan had bought to another train. She had to transfer trains again, and she had told He Tingchuan in advance that she might not be able to return for a few days.

He Tingchuan thought Yun Jin wanted to stay in her hometown for a few more days, so he nodded in agreement and solemnly promised that he would take good care of the child, and that she should be careful on the road and call him if anything happened.

At first, Xiao Niangao was quite happy to have her father with her. But when she got hungry and wanted to drink milk, she tilted her head and looked for her mother, but couldn't find her anywhere. She refused to drink the milk powder that He Tingchuan had prepared as soon as she smelled it.

He Tingchuan couldn't coax her no matter what he did. Seeing his daughter so focused on finding her mother, he could only take her out for a walk to look for her. She wasn't here, she wasn't there. Once he was sure her mother was gone, Xiao Niangao couldn't hold back any longer. She looked at He Tingchuan, her lips trembled, and big tears welled up in her eyes.

He Tingchuan: "..."

After a while, Little Rice Cake realized that crying was useless, so she cried loudly in grievance.

He Tingchuan's heart was breaking. He wished he could call Yun Jin and ask her to come back, or at least not wean her.

Unfortunately, Yun Jin was on the train; in those days, there were no mobile phones, pagers, or cell phones.

Even if He Tingchuan tried to call for reinforcements, he couldn't get them back.

Little Niangao is like this, either crying or sleeping, and only eating a couple of bites before stopping. Her chubby baby face has visibly thinned out.

Li Aimei, along with her sister-in-law Gao and other sisters-in-law, couldn't be coaxed back to health no matter what they tried.

Little Rice Cake wants Mom.

They kept their eyes fixed on the gate, guarding the compound gate every day from dawn till dusk, one looking for his wife, the other for his mother.

When Mrs. He called and learned that Xiao Niangao was being weaned, she was heartbroken: "She's only a few months old, how can you wean her already? Some children are breastfed until they're two or three years old, how can you be so heartless?"

He Tingchuan couldn't bear it either; the little guy had started biting people.

Seeing her mother's injuries, He Tingchuan felt that it was probably a good thing to quit.

Looking at the listless, utterly dejected Xiao Nian Gao, He Tingchuan thought that it wasn't impossible to bear with it.

Upon learning that Yun Jin had returned to her hometown, nothing He's mother said could change her mind. She could only instruct He Tingchuan, "Take good care of Nian Gao. Is there enough milk powder? I'll go to Friendship Store to buy some later. I heard that imported milk powder is better."

The thought of not having enough milk for her ten-month-old baby made Mrs. He wish she could feed him herself if she had enough milk.

There was no other way but to buy milk powder and send it over.

I bought the best formula, the most expensive kind, because they say it's more nutritious!

Mr. He also supported this, and every time his retirement pension was deposited into his account, he would give it to his wife: "Buy some good food for the kids."

With the couple's retirement pension, Mrs. He spent all of it, except for her own expenses, on necessities. She would either send them to He Tingchuan or buy clothes and toys for her two children, He Zizhen and He Ximei.

More often, they buy meat and eggs to cook delicious meals for them to nourish them.

Yun Jin was unaware of the situation at the garrison. She changed buses and finally arrived in Guangzhou.

That's right. Yun Jin's hometown is Guangzhou. The Guangzhou of today is different from the Guangzhou she lived in in her later life. The Guangzhou of today has not yet developed. After the reform and opening up, Guangzhou has changed rapidly and has accepted many people who came to work.

Yun Jin's parents met while working here. Later, they opened a factory, became bosses, bought a house, and settled here. She grew up here and later went abroad to study. After returning, she started her own business.

Yun Jin couldn't find a place to belong here, so she went to visit her parents' hometown.

She arrived at her father's hometown but did not find anyone named Yun Sanqing.

Yun Jin knew that this was not the historical fiction she had conceived, so her parents could not possibly be here.

Yun Jin couldn't find anyone and finally gave up. After wandering around the place for a while, she took a bus and left, since she had no relatives there.

After being away for three to five days, Yun Jin had nowhere to go, so she bought a train ticket and planned to go back.

While waiting for the bus, an older woman deliberately struck up a conversation with her. Yun Jin, who was out alone, was very cautious. Looking at the overly friendly older woman, she remained indifferent and did not say anything about herself.

When the old woman saw that Yun Jin was pretty and fair-skinned and was alone, she asked, "Are you an educated youth sent to the countryside?"
