Chapter 1 Traveling back to 1956
1956, winter!
"I went and actually traveled through time."
When Zhang Qian woke up, a strange memory of more than 20 years suddenly appeared in her mind. She only remembered that she was live broadcasting outdoors, and suddenly there was lightning and thunder, and then she traveled here.
It turned out that Zhang Qian inherited two separate courtyards, three shops and a huge fortune from her grandfather's house. Who knew that she was so happy that she was accidentally transported to the modern world by Zhang Qian.
This is a good start. The ancestors of the late cheap grandfather had been running a time-honored shop since the Daoguang period.
However, due to the sluggish market, it closed before the founding of the People's Republic of China.
After that, her grandfather had nothing to do but had two uncles, both of whom died early in life due to smoking.
As for her mother's elopement, her grandfather has never acknowledged it.
But in the end, my grandfather couldn't stand it any longer, so he recognized her as a poor granddaughter before letting go. The family property was a benefit to the original owner, and it was also a benefit to her.
Zhang Qian looked at the house in front of her, with two rooms inside and outside, and a kitchen outside, in the backyard and next door to the house.
This is already pretty good, since my mother died young and my father also fell ill a few years ago.
She has been working as a substitute in a textile factory for three and a half years. Now she is a first-class lathe worker with a monthly salary of thirty-three yuan.
As a benefit for a time traveler, she also carries a vegetable market with her, where she can withdraw non-living objects at will, and can connect them in her consciousness. Anything she touches can be put in, and she can also choose to stop time in the vegetable market.
.
Zhang Qian immediately connected her consciousness to the vegetable market. Good guy, this place is really big, and there are many fresh vegetables and meat, which is enough for her to eat for several months.
Things like rice and white flour are all in stock.
This place is still. If she wants something, she can just use her mind to bring it out.
With this vegetable market, she would not be short of food even if she had nothing to eat.
She is only twenty-three years old, and she has achieved freedom. She can lie down and let others take over.
Immediately, she put a bench in and took it out again, having a great time.
After calming down, she was eager to dig out the family property that her grandfather had hidden under the big locust tree in the old house and put it in space. This would be safe.
As for the other things, it’s not too late to consider them later.
"Zhi!"
Zhang Qian opened the door and went out. It was already bright outside. She didn't know what time it was, but she was hungry.
Today is the weekend, and she is not popular in the courtyard. Besides, she lives in the backyard, so no one pays attention to her movements.
There was no one in the backyard, which was strange.
When she arrived in the middle courtyard, she suddenly heard two people talking under the tree.
"Hi! It's time for me to go on a blind date. It's not appropriate to be alone like this all the time."
"Dating was a feudal idea, but now everyone pays attention to free love."
Zhang Qian's heart suddenly moved, and she stepped forward and asked, "Hey, who is on a blind date?"
"This is none of your business, go ahead."
The woman snorted, quite impatiently, and continued to crack the melon seeds.
Zhang Qian then remembered that the main reason why she was not popular in the hospital was that she had no elderly people to help her, but she still guarded two rooms, which made people jealous all the time.
But the two rooms in her house were the ancestral home. Her ancestors had spent forty-five cash to buy them. They were not allocated and no one could take them away.
I don't bother to argue with these two people now, the property left behind by my grandfather is more important.
Then he left. After leaving the yard, he felt a little urgent to urinate. He drank too much water last night.
When she came out of the public toilet, she saw a handsome young man in simple clothes coming out of the courtyard.
This man has an indescribable charm that makes people fascinated at first glance.
Some people say that all love at first sight is caused by lust.
Zhang Qian had to admit that she fell in love at first sight.
Seeing that he was approaching, she couldn't help but go up to him. Unexpectedly, the man subconsciously ducked, and she also subconsciously moved closer.
"Comrade, you, you are blocking my way."
The man was a little confused and didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of him.
This was his first time in the capital, and he was brought on a blind date by a matchmaker to become his son-in-law. Therefore, he felt that he was a dwarf and did not dare to argue with the people in the city.
"Ahem..."
"Comrade, I'm from this courtyard, how come I've never seen you before?"
"I, I'm from the countryside. I'm here to have a blind date with a woman named Xue Ling who lives in your courtyard."
"Xue Ling? Why did you go on a blind date with her? I'm not telling you that everyone in this courtyard is better than her."
Zhang Qian was stunned for a moment when she saw the man, and then continued: "This is Xue Ling! I know that she is still an apprentice driver, not a regular worker. She only earns a small salary every month and has to support her mother.
Let me tell you, this Xue Ling is not a good person. She is an only child. She has been in the army for two years. She has a bad temper. She scolds everyone when she sees her. She can't even get scolded but she can also take action. No one in the nearby neighbors can beat her.
As for Old Mrs.
Also, the Xue family only has one room. How will you live in it after you come?
How will I live if I have children in the future?
With her little salary, she usually lives a tight life. She can't eat meat even once for several months, and all the delicious food goes into her stomach, otherwise she would have gained so much weight."
Hearing these words, Zhou Jianguo was so shocked that he forgot about his need to urinate, and said blankly: "But that's not what the matchmaker said."
"What did the matchmaker say? Don't worry, let's go to the edge and chat slowly."
"Sister, can you wait while I go to the toilet first?"
After the shock, Zhou Jianguo couldn't help it anymore.
"Of course, go. I'll wait for you in the corner over there. I just want you to be kind and don't want you to jump into the fire pit."
"Um!"
Zhou Jianguo responded and walked away quickly with a blush.
After waiting for a while, he came out of the toilet, his cheeks still a little hot.
Zhang Qian waved at the corner of the alley. No accident, she came over.
"Sister, the matchmaker said that the Xue family is in good condition and has a lot of wealth. She will buy me a sewing machine when I get married. I won't have to work in the future and I can just live a good life with peace of mind."
Zhang Qian shook her head, "You were deceived. The Xue family's wealth comes from the compensation from the textile factory when Xue Ling's father died of a work-related injury, which was a small amount of two hundred yuan.
What will be left after I buy a sewing machine? And is that sewing machine bought for you? It’s not just for you to use to make clothes.”
"ah!"
Zhou Jianguo was surprised. Thinking about it carefully, he seemed to be right.
Zhang Qian didn't want to waste time, so she quickly said: "My name is Zhang Qian, I live in the backyard, I have two rooms in my house, I am a first-level turner in a textile factory, and my monthly salary is thirty-three yuan.
This is not the point. The most important thing is, do you know who my grandpa, uh, my grandpa is?"
"Then who is your grandfather?"
"My grandpa was the owner of the Dongliulichang Candy Shop. My family ran a factory, and there were dozens of clerks alone.
