Chapter 1: A turning point in life

Next Chapter

As soon as Liu Xiaoju opened her eyes, she found that she was in a dark room, which only had a small window to let in light. And she was lying on a hard bed, covered with an old, hard, thin quilt. It's not warm at all. Fortunately, there was a warmth from the bed under her, which made her not feel cold!

By the glimmer of light that came through the window, she found that in this room, in addition to the bed on which she slept, there were two broken boxes at her feet, which looked very similar to the dowry box left by her grandmother! Everything else is gone.

I just don't understand why the broken box was on the bed she slept on? Later, Liu Xiaoju saw that there was no one in the room, got up and carefully checked the bed lying underneath, only to find that what she slept on was not a wooden bed, but the earthen kang described in it when she used to read novels! No wonder sleeping on it makes you feel warm!

It's a pity that she doesn't understand, she is obviously working in the hospital today, and has received a serious illness, after announcing that the rescue is ineffective and died, she, the doctor in charge of the rescue, was stabbed by an excited family member with a knife! In the chaos, Liu Xiaoju only remembered that she was stabbed in the lungs at that time, and then there were many screams in her ears, and soon her eyes were dark and she didn't know anything.

But now she is not in the emergency room of the hospital, let alone the intensive care unit! Looking at her own small hands and feet at this time, what else does Liu Xiaoju not understand? This body was not at all her well-developed, nearly thirty-year-old woman's body! For some reason, her soul possessed the little girl, who looked like she was only about five years old.

No one who studies medicine believes that there are really ghosts in the world! Liu Xiaoju also believes that people die with the death of the body. But this situation at this time made her unable to understand, but she could only accept her fate, and she could only live as this little girl in her future life.

Liu Xiaoju, who had sorted out her thoughts, lay back on the kang quietly, waiting for someone to come in! It's time to get to know the environment you're in. But judging from the things in the room, this family is very poor, and not averagely poor! Now the only hope in her heart is that she will not be so poor that she can't eat enough three meals a day, and she will be satisfied.

It wasn't until Liu Xiaoju's stomach was rumbling with hunger that a middle-aged woman wearing a patched dress came in, holding a bowl in her hand, and she was steaming!

The middle-aged woman looked at Liu Xiaoju who was looking at her with a pair of dark and bright eyes, and said with a smile: "Xiaoju, are you comfortable?" Last night, you bluffed your father and mother, and you had such a high fever for no reason! Fortunately, Uncle Mo in Zhuang Li has very high medical skills, and if you go down with a pair of medicines, your fever will subside! Otherwise, your little life is really a little hanging!"

While nagging, the woman stretched out her free hand and put it on Liu Xiaoju's forehead, feeling Liu Xiaoju's body temperature, and then smiled with satisfaction: "Come, Xiaoju!" Get up, my mother helped you boil some corn paste and drank it, so strong!"

Liu Xiaoju's stomach was already so hungry that she couldn't stand it, so she was not polite, she got up and took the bowl in the hand of the middle-aged woman who was smiling, and stretched out her head to see that it was really a bowl of mush that looked like a golden color! It smells good. She took a sip on the edge of the bowl, the texture was coarse, but it wasn't unpleasant! So she quickly drank the bowl of mush, which had already become warm, into her stomach, and then felt a lot more comfortable in her hungry stomach.

After Liu Xiaoju finished drinking the paste, the middle-aged woman took the empty bowl and asked her to continue to lie down and rest, and said, "Xiaoju, you have a good rest, and your mother has to take care of your brother!" If you want to get up, you have to get dressed and don't get cold!" At this time, Liu Xiaoju reacted, it turned out that the name of this body was also called Xiaoju, this is good, at least others call her, she won't be unable to react.

After the middle-aged woman who claimed to be her mother came out of this small dark room, Xiaoju lay on the kang for a while and found that she couldn't sleep! Simply picked up the patched cotton demon cotton pants placed on the kang and put them on his body, put on his shoes, and went out of the small black room.

As soon as Xiao Ju came out of the small black room, she found that she had entered another larger room, and the light was not very good, and the kang table on the kang in this room was surrounded by two big and one small three, and they were eating at this time, I don't know if it was lunch or dinner.

As soon as the two adults saw Xiao Ju, they hurriedly said, "Xiao Ju, are you up?" Come up to the kang quickly, lest you catch a cold again!" Xiao Ju walked slowly towards the kang! The middle-aged man had long been impatient with Xiaoju's slow swallowing, so he got off the kang and carried her to the kang to sit.

And also smiled: "Damn it, Xiaoju has been sick, but she is a little dull, and she looks like she has grown up a lot!" When Xiao Ju heard this, she was shocked, and she couldn't help but tremble, worried that if she was discovered, her inner shell was no longer the original Xiao Ju. And the middle-aged woman who was holding a little boy who looked to be just over two years old glanced at the middle-aged man and said angrily: "Xiaoju is good, speak so loudly, don't scare her!"

"How can my bold girl be so timid!" The middle-aged man said with a smile. Xiao Ju knew from the conversation between these two that this middle-aged couple was the father and mother of her current body, and judging from the interaction just now, the relationship should be very good. And the little boy that my mother has been holding should be her younger brother.

"Mother, I can't sleep! Is it day or night?" Xiao Ju asked cautiously.

"Why did you get sick and get so separated from your father? Are you so careful about what you ask? Where is night now? We're just having breakfast!" Xiao Ju's mother reached out and touched Xiao Ju's head with some disgust.

"Maybe it's not cured yet! Haven't woken up yet! the child, don't you still have some eggs at home? Cook an egg for Xiaoju to replenish her body!" Xiao Ju's father said to Xiao Ju's mother with a big grin.

Xiao Ju, who has been sitting and listening, heard this, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he really didn't have a little impression of how Xiao Ju was in the past, no matter what, what should happen in the future, if you ask, you will say that you are sick, and many things are not very clear.

Fortunately, the parents of this body are not careful people, and soon Xiaoju dissolved into the family. When she heard her mother say that she was still eating breakfast, she was shocked, it was so dark in the house, it was early in the morning? It wasn't until a few days later that Xiaoju walked up and down the house to know the reason.

This family is really poor and lives in a real cave. It's a hole dug along the mountain wall. The lighting is not good, that's why it's so dark! Let her come from a modern city where everything is bright at night to this poor cave, and she didn't imagine that the house could be darker during the day than at night!

The room in the middle is where the family eats and gets together to do things and chat, the one on the left is where the father and his brother sleep, and the right is the place where Xiaoju lives and piles up the sundries at home. It's a pity that the family is too poor and there is no clutter! Later, under Xiaoju's careful investigation, she found that there were some jars and jars piled up in the hole where she lived. It seems that this is the clutter of this home.

Later, Xiao Ju curiously secretly investigated those jars and jars, hoping to find some treasures! It's a pity that all I see is not some cornmeal or some rice noodles, and some high-beam noodles, and then some jar vegetables. It seems that this family has been poor for generations, and it is difficult to find any surprises!

When Xiaoju arrived at this place, it was the coldest winter here, not to mention that her cotton clothes were old and not warm, and she had been living in the south before, and there was a heater and air conditioning in winter, and now that she came to this environment, how dare she go out? I had to nest on the kang every day, take my younger brother to play, or I would explore the treasures in those three caves, hoping to find any surprises!

Not to mention, although the family is very poor, this pair of parents still really love their children, and they don't let Xiaoju do anything, and she takes her younger brother around the house every day. And the original rule here is to eat two meals a day, but Xiaoju said that she was hungry and wanted to eat three meals! Rely on her too!

Although they all eat some coarse grains, Xiaoju is also very satisfied. You must know that under the conditions of the family, eating an extra meal means consuming a lot of food, and not many families will be willing to do it!

Xiao Ju was afraid that her father and mother would find out that she was not the real Xiao Ju, so she didn't dare to ask about the era at this time, and she didn't dare to ask where she lived now! In this way, I nested in these three caves, and before I knew it, the cold winter had passed. Something that makes Xiaoju feel strange. During the Chinese New Year in this family, there were no relatives to come and go, and at the same time, I didn't see my father and mother leave with her sister and brother. For fear of her father's suspicion, Xiaoju didn't ask.

As soon as the weather warmed up, my father went out to look for a job. And the mother also goes out every day to the richest Hu rich family in the village to be a cook. Don't talk about it yet. My mother's cooking skills are really good, even the thick cornmeal and sorghum noodles are delicious.

At this time, Xiao Ju knew that this family had no land, and they relied on helping people everywhere all year round to earn some wages to support a family of four.

Xiaoju was a working family in her previous life, and no one in her family had ever farmed, but she studied clinical medicine in college, which had nothing to do with agriculture. So in this regard, she can't help the family now. What's more, this family is so poor that they don't have any land. She can only take her younger brother at home when her father and mother go out to work, and learn to use the earthen stove here to make food.

The rest of his free time is spent hunting treasures around the cave with his younger brother. One is that there is hope there, and the other is that it can be regarded as joy in suffering. Otherwise, the gap between the two lives is really difficult for her to accept.

In this way, spring passed and a hot summer was ushered in. In the past half a year, Xiao Ju has been very honest and has not left the kiln where she lives a thousand meters away. Despite this, she did make a few friends, children from two families who lived five hundred meters to the left and right of her house.
