Chapter 1: Dreams Are Too Real

Next Chapter

When Jiang Mi woke up, he sat on the ground for a long time staring at two big black eyes.

The hot pain in both knees quickly woke her up from her stupor.

Is she dreaming?

It's just that this dream is too real!

Not far in front of you is a stone slab bridge, four huge bluestone slabs spliced together to form a four-meter-wide and five-meter-long bridge deck, and on the slope where the bridgehead connects with the dirt road, a wheelbarrow that used to be common in rural areas is tilted to the left.

Two oblong rattan baskets were tied to hemp rope on both sides of the arch beam of the wheelbarrow, and there were still dozens of corn cobs left in the basket on the left, and the corn cobs in the basket on the right had already rolled down the slope into the ditch on the side of the slope.

To the south of the ditch, under the scorching sun, was a field of corn with yellowed leaves, and near the ditch was a pile of corn cobs that had just been broken off the corn stalks.

A middle-aged woman with a yellow turban on her head and a patched navy blue acrylic blouse, with a sallow face and an emaciated body, was half-kneeling on the hot damp mud floor, holding a sickle, sweating profusely on her forehead, panting and cutting corn stalks weakly.

Looking at the woman, Jiang Mi was in disbelief at first, confused, and then recognized it when he was calm, and his eyes instantly seemed to be sprinkled with chili noodles, which was astringent and painful.

She wanted to endure it, but she couldn't help it, tears poured out of her eyes, and water flowed down like a stream.

That's her mother Li Lamei! Li Lamei when she was young! Li Lamei alive!

"Mom!" Jiang Mi couldn't help but shout.

Thirty-two-year-old doctor of pharmacy, Jiang Mi, inexplicably returned to his childhood and saw his mother alive.

When she was in the fifth grade of primary school, because her family was poor, because her mother was seriously ill, because her family could not afford to send three children to school, because she was the second girl in the family, Jiang Mi was forced to suspend school.

Later, although her mother went to school again after she recovered from her illness, she was finally admitted to the county key high school, but her father secretly gave her a gift and lowered her scores, and she was forced to take the secondary school she didn't like.

My father's reason is that if he is admitted to a secondary school, the family does not need to spend any more money, and the state will also assign jobs after graduation. If you take the high school entrance examination, not only will the family have to pay for another three years of tuition, but you may not be able to get into college, because people say that girls will not rush to study in high school.

Fortunately, Jiang Mi had grown up at that time and had his own opinions. After graduating from secondary school, Jiang Mi took the university entrance examination, at that time the technical secondary school and the university were no longer allotted, Jiang Mi later went to graduate school part-time, and then read all the way to the doctorate.

That is, when she was in college, because she refused to work properly to earn money, reduce the burden on her family, and provide for her brother to go to school, she was scolded by her mother and threatened to sever the mother-daughter relationship. She only defended herself a few words before she was slapped to the ground by her father.

At that time, Jiang Mi had already foreseen her bright future, so proud, it was when she was young and vigorous, because of the insult, because of that slap, she could no longer stand her parents' affection for her, and ran away from home in a fit of anger, leaving the poor and deformed mountain village, and the so-called home that did not leave her much warmth and beauty, until her parents died of illness She resumed contact with her eldest sister and younger brother.

However, at this time, how could she be so surprised to see her mother and shed tears?

But her surprise was exchanged for a sharp scolding from her mother.

"Erni! How did you overturn the car! You dead girl, you really can't eat enough, what can't you do! ”
