Chapter 1: Back to 2000

Jingle and the phone rings.

Chen Yang woke up suddenly and found himself in a strange environment.

Old-fashioned chairs, old-fashioned desks, old-fashioned cabinets, old-fashioned decoration style......

There was also an old-fashioned landline on the desk, which was ringing non-stop.

Dreaming?

Chen Yang was a little unsure, he only felt that the environment was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

The phone became louder and louder, making Chen Yangtou upset, and couldn't help but pick up the phone.

"Is it Chen's herb shop? I'm from the bank, and your family's loan is overdue, and if you don't repay it, we will take legal measures on our side......"

A stern voice came from the other end of the line.

Chen Yang immediately hung up the phone, his face dazed.

What's that......

Where did you get any Chen's medicinal herbs......

His gaze fell on the wall-mounted perpetual calendar, and he was visibly stunned.

Date: May 7, 2000.

This......

Chen Yang couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

In 2000?

How is this possible?

Chen Yang couldn't believe it for a while.

He stood up and looked left and right.

Rows and rows of shelves are placed around the perimeter, and the shelves are hung with labels.

Medicine: ginseng, deer antler, parsnip, asaroxin, schisandra, eleutherococcus, cork, zhimu, gentian, toad oil......

Northern medicine: northern sand ginseng, hawthorn, codonopsis, honeysuckle, banlan root, forsythia, sour jujube kernel, yuanzhi, skullcap, red peony, zhimu, wolfberry, ejiao, whole scorpion, five spirit fat......

Zhejiang medicine: Atractylodes macrocephalus, Hunghua paeoniae, Radix Radix, Yanhusuo, Chrysanthemum, Hangmaidong, Zhejiang......

Looking at the familiar names of the medicines, Chen Yang couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, and a thought gradually rose in his mind.

How is it a bit like ......

Impossible, right......

When Chen Yang's gaze fell on a document hanging on the wall, his head suddenly thundered.

The photo of the document is a white middle-aged man, and there are two eye-catching words underneath - Chen Chuan.

Chen Yang twisted his face vigorously and rubbed his eyes.

Not bad......

It's Chen Chuan, this is his father's shop.

Chen Yang ran out quickly.

Outside, there are many shops and signs, and the streets and alleys are filled with a peculiar medicinal fragrance.

This is a street of medicinal herbs in Yangxian County.

It was his home twenty years ago.

Chen Yang touched his face and looked at his hands again.

No greasy, no big belly, and no signs of age on the hands.

Really crossed!

No, it's reborn!

Chen Yang muttered to himself.

Unexpectedly, at the age of forty, he just slept on the plane and woke up to go back to the year 2000.

It's really reborn.

Chen Yang was surprised and delighted.

It's May 2000, and he's only 21 years old, the age when he can pinch out the water.

The two storefronts in front of him belong to his family, and their names are Chen's Medicinal Herb Shop.

With an excited heart, Chen Yang walked into Chen's medicinal herb store again.

A sense of familiarity came over us.

Grabbing a handful of medicinal herbs at random, Chen Yang closed his eyes, put the medicinal herbs on the tip of his nose, and sniffed deeply.

Tangerine peel!

First class!

Guangdong Xinhui's new drug of the year.

Without looking at it at all, he could determine the variety, year, category and origin of medicinal herbs just by smell and touch.

Chen Yang in his previous life has been in this industry for more than 20 years, and some instincts have been deeply engraved in his bones.

Really back!

Chen Yang closed his eyes and muttered to himself.

……

Chen Yang's hometown is in Yangyang, a place close to Qiaocheng.

The medicinal herb street in Yangyang County is one of the earliest medicinal herb markets formed in the local area.

Chen's Herbal Medicine Store is located in the center of the herbal medicine street, which is a pattern of front shops and back shops.

In front are two rooms and are the façade. There are four main rooms at the back, where the family lives.

There are two rooms in the east and west compartments, one side is the kitchen and bathroom, and the other half is used as a warehouse.

When you enter the courtyard, you will see the hall in front of you.

On the wall facing the hall door is a long case slip with an elaborate screen.

There is a pair of vases on either side of the screen.

There is a painting in the middle hall hung on the case, with left and right couplets on both sides, and a plaque is set on it.

The plaque is written on the book, and honesty is the foundation.

There is a pair of couplets on the left and right, and the number of celebrities and scholars is called the people of Limin.

In front of the case, there is a table of eight immortals and a pair of chairs for the master.

In the central hall, pairs of armchairs and tables are arranged from the bottom up from the host and guest positions.

The whole main hall is set in an antique setting, and the only thing that is close to modernity is the TV on the table.

Revisiting the old place, Chen Yang suddenly had a sense of intimacy.

He couldn't wait to go to his parents' bedroom on his left hand.

There was no one in the room, it should have been out.

He immediately turned to the rightmost room and pushed open the door.

This is his room.

The room was simple, with only a bed and a writing desk.

There are also posters of NBA stars on the walls.

Chen Yang slowly came to the desk and sat down.

The tables and chairs are still in the style of the seventies and eighties, and the lacquer surface is wrapped in a thick layer of pulp.

Reaching out and stroking the old desk, Chen Yang's eyes showed a look of remembrance.

This desk accompanied him throughout his student years.

I remember that there seems to be a hidden space behind the desk drawer.

Chen Yang slowly leaned down, reached out and groped at the bottom of the desk for a while, and took out a box.

The box was covered in dust, and it had been some time.

I vaguely saw a line of words above, Shanghai Huili Shoes.

When I opened the box, there were some small bits and pieces of toys inside.

Glass beads, comic strips, toy frogs, plastic water guns, dolls, cards, and postcards of Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities.

The corners of Chen Yang's mouth couldn't help but smile.

These are treasures that he and his sister have sealed for a long time.

Pick up that toy frog, pluck the string a few times, and place it on the ground.

Clucking, the toy frog jumped on the ground like a cheerful duckling.

Chen Yang was in a trance for a while.

Dusty memories poured out like a tidal wave.

When he was a student, Chen Yang lived a fairly good life.

The father is capable, the mother is virtuous, and there is a lovely sister, and the family has no worries.

The accident occurred when he was 20 years old, when his father encountered a flash flood when he went out to buy goods, and even the car and people were washed into the river.

There is no one in life, and no corpse in death.

The local search and rescue lasted for a long time, but no clues were found.

When the bad news came, the whole family fell into grief.

My father is the pillar of the family.

The pillars are gone, and the prospects of the whole family are helpless.

The debts of the bank, the cost of finding a father, and the expenses of the family once again made the situation worse for this crippled family.

In the end, the house that carried Chen Yang's childhood memories was sold to his aunt's family.

Chen Yang covered his eyes and gently wiped away his tears, his eyes quickly became resolute.

It's May 2000, and it should be the most difficult time for their family.

I don't know if my father is alive or dead......

Bank Debt Collection ......

Mother is struggling to support herself......

The house is also about to be lost......

In the last life, he was powerless to stop him.

But in this life, it should still be too late.
