1 Peasant girl
When night fell, there was not even a dog barking in the quiet mountain village. The three dark adobe houses were pitch black everywhere, except for one room with a bean-sized oil lamp.
In the narrow room, a girl with a withered face sat on the edge of the earthen kang, she looked like she was about thirteen or fourteen years old, looking at her sister on the kang worriedly, and kept wiping her forehead, hoping to lower the temperature.
"Xiao Ni, how is Xiao Qiao?" , a trembling old woman walked in with a cane.
The girl named Xiaoni shook her head: "I haven't woken up yet, but I don't have a fever, grandma, go to sleep, I'll call you if there's something." ”
Luo Xiaoqiao on the kang felt that he had a long dream.
In the dream, her parents never looked at her seriously, and even when she got the college admission letter, they forced her to work.
In her dream, she became the youngest doctor of mechanics in China and became a visiting professor at GF University of Science and Technology.
In the dream, she bought the house she wanted, the mortgage was about to be paid off, and she would soon have a home that truly belonged to her.
In the dream, she went to a temple to worship the Buddha, and on the way home, a lightning bolt and a muffled thunder struck her head......
My body hurts, my head hurts, and my stomach is rumbling.
Luo Xiaoqiao slowly opened his eyes, a little dumbfounded, the dim light, the black roof, it seemed that he could still see a corner of the sky through the roof...
Is this her house? She remembers that her home is a three-bedroom apartment, and the decoration is very satisfactory!
Are you dreaming now, or are you dreaming just now?
"Sister, are you awake?"
The girl in front of the bed screamed in surprise, and then turned her head and shouted outside the door: "Grandma, grandpa, come on, my sister is awake!" ”
After a while, there was a sound of rustling, and two old and kind faces came to the side of the kang.
Grandma reached out and touched Luo Xiaoqiao's forehead: "Child, how are you feeling?" ”
There was also a sleepy-eyed little boy beside Grandpa, who had obviously just been woken up and was rubbing his eyes, but he didn't cry and looked at her obediently.
Luo Xiaoqiao was a little stunned, and the pain on the top of her head told her that this was not a dream!
The elderly, the sister, the younger brother... She tried to recall that she should not have been tied up by human traffickers in a backward area.
She was sure she didn't know the men, and they were dressed strangely.
Apparel... How is it so much like the ancients?!
Hell, she can't be crossed.
Luo Xiaoqiao suddenly hit a spirit, this thief God, can't you see her a little better? Just about to live a good life, I came to hone her again!
Luo Xiaoqiao didn't speak, if the family knew that their relatives were only a shell left, and the inside was occupied by her, would they burn her as a monster.
Luo Xiaoqiao moved his hands and feet with difficulty, very weak, and raised his palms in front of his eyes, black and thin, just like chicken paws.
This is obviously not her hand, and reality tells her that she really crossed over!
"How's it going, what's uncomfortable?" The white-haired old man asked.
"Thirsty, still a little hungry", after enduring it for a long time, Luo Xiaoqiao still couldn't hold back, the feeling of hunger was really uncomfortable, so when she felt fat back then, she never used dieting methods to lose weight.
"Don't worry, sister, I'll boil water for you, and there's a piece of corn tortilla in the pot, bring it to you." The girl stood up and said with some anxiety.
"There's still some cold boiled water in the urn, bring her some first."
"Hey." The girl named Xiaoni agreed and went.
After a while, water was served, along with a blackened yellow bread. It can be seen that the whole family is reluctant to eat it at one time, and it is steamed in the pot repeatedly, causing the hardness and color to lose their original appearance.
Luo Xiaoqiao was so thirsty that he didn't care if it was hot water, so he took the girl's hand and drank the water in a few sips.
"Give." Looking at the yellow bread handed over by the girl, the little boy next to him couldn't help but swallow his saliva, but the seven or eight-year-old child didn't say anything, just watched her eat it.
It's very unpalatable.
But judging from the expressions of several people, this is probably the best food their family can come up with.
Luo Xiaoqiao bowed down and handed it to the boy next to him.
"Sister, you eat, you will be cured if you eat a disease." The little boy shook his head, very sensible.
Luo Xiaoqiao's eyes couldn't help but redden, he was really a sensible child from a poor family, such a young child already knew humility.
"Little Joe, is there anything else uncomfortable?"
The old man next to him, who should be his grandparents, asked with concern in his eyes.
"My head hurts, I forget a lot of things". Luo Xiaoqiao really didn't know how to treat this family for the time being, so he had to find an excuse for amnesia.
"It's okay, it's okay, anyway, the village is so small, there's nothing important, forget it, just forget it, it's okay." Grandpa spoke lovingly.
"Let's all go out and let Little Joe have a good rest."
Luo Xiaoqiao lay on the bed, thought slowly, and gradually fell into a light sleep.
If you come here, you will be safe! Anyway, the people over there don't have anything to be nostalgic for, but it's a pity that her three-bedroom apartment is cheaper, so she should repay the kindness of childbirth.
Thinking of his former parents, Luo Xiaoqiao sighed complicatedly, maybe it was finally as they wished, they should be happy that they would never see themselves again in this life.
It's just a few of my friends, I'm afraid I'm going to be sad. Forget it, it will always pass, I don't want to think about it.
Next, she needs to think about how she can integrate into her new life without doubt.
The memory of this body has begun to merge a little, and Luo Xiaoqiao knows that the original owner is also called Luo Xiaoqiao, and he is twelve years old this year.
They live in a remote village, scattered more than 300 households, although most of them are surnamed Qiao, but they are all foreign households due to the war, and there is no patriarch, only one Lizheng, and the village chief is the same person.
The current Qiao family is only five of them. The parents have passed away due to illness, leaving two elderly people in their fifties, struggling to support their three siblings.
But they have a harmonious family and love each other, and their sisters and brothers are very good to her, especially her younger brother, who brought a lot when she was a child and was very attached to her.
Luo Xiaoqiao breathed a long sigh of relief, God finally didn't do anything. gave her the family affection she couldn't ask for in her previous life, and she was very grateful.
However, the fly in the ointment of the new life is that it is too poor. So poor that they can only eat two meals a day, so poor that their clothes have been patched, and so poor that the five of them are skinny.
There is no way, although their family has a thin field of three acres, but the labor force that can go to the field is only two old people and a half-grown sister.
Luo Xiaoqiao remembered his grandfather's ragged and old back, pulling the plow with difficulty, and he couldn't help but have red eyes. I don't know if it's the emotions of the original owner or my own emotions.
Luo Xiaoqiao was lying on the kang, covered with a patched quilt. Because she and her sister are girls, their grandparents gave them the best house to live in, and my younger brother huddled together with their old couple.
There was nothing in the room except the black walls. As you can imagine, the condition of other houses must be worse.
Luo Xiaoqiao thought about it, since she had already come, since she had such good relatives, she would use what she had learned to help these people who loved her and protected her to improve their lives.
However, as a village girl, what if you suddenly change too much, and you still know something that others don't know, and you are suspicious?
I have to think of a perfect strategy, how to make the Qiao family accept it, so that the people in the village are not suspicious, it is really a problem.
Luo Xiaoqiao fell asleep while thinking. In this leaky room, under the shabby bedding, she slept so comfortably for the first time, and there was a faint smile on her face.
