Rebirth in the 70s: A military wife who was married into a vegetative state

Yu Luyuan nodded slightly and turned to look at a middle-aged man sitting behind the tractor who came with him.

"Uncle Chen, I may need to trouble you later."

The middle-aged man he called Uncle Chen had a decent appearance and was wearing a gray coat. He looked quite dignified.

"Yu boy, don't worry, our Hekou Village will never tolerate bandits! I will make them return the things to your home."

The middle-aged man looked unhappy. He jumped off the tractor and rushed directly into the door of Chen's house.

An Nian was a little confused: "That was the head of Hekou Village just now?"

She once came to Hekou Village part-time for a few days for Aunt Lanhua's daughter and met the village chief.

"Well, Uncle Chen is not only the village chief, but also their family member."

Half of the people in Hekou Village have the surname Chen, and they all worship the same one. The village chief is not only the head of the entire village, but also the biggest talker in the Chen family.

"It's from Chen Brick's house! Open the door for me quickly!"

Mother Chen hurriedly ran out with her child in her arms, and panicked when she saw the village chief banging on the door.

"Village chief, why are you here..."

"Why am I here? How many things did your daughter-in-law steal from Renlao Yu's family?!"

Chen's mother defended: "It's not stealing, it's all the food given to my daughter by the Yu family for her confinement!"

"You also know it's for your daughter? Why are they all hidden in your daughter-in-law's room? Don't give me any nonsense! Ask her to open the door!"

The village chief was very prestigious in the entire Hekou Village. No matter how angry Chen's mother was, she did not dare to fight with him, so she had no choice but to step forward and ask Juanzi to open the door.

Juanzi fidgeted inside for a few minutes, then finally opened the door obediently, walked out with two jars and a bag in her arms, and threw them on the dining table.

The village chief's expression improved slightly and he looked at Li Youmei and others who were following them.

"You guys go over and see if there's anything missing?"

Li Youmei stepped forward and took a look, my dear, both cans of malted milk were opened, and there was only one bottom left inside.

Other items, such as red dates, brown sugar, donkey-hide gelatin, etc., are mostly missing.

The village chief looked down and immediately knew what was going on. He turned around and glared at Mother Chen and Juanzi.

Mother Chen's eyes flickered and she didn't dare to look at him.

Chen Xiaocui came to the table with slow steps and picked up these things one by one. In this awkward atmosphere, she suddenly laughed.

"Mom, I know you never like me...it's me who is stupid..."

As she spoke, she held the edge of the table with one hand and put all the things on the table into the bag with the other hand, just carrying them.

"Mom, let's go home."

The second time she called mom, it was Li Yumei.

Li Youmei felt comfortable and responded, supporting her.

Seeing that Chen Xiaocui was neither crying nor making trouble, Chen's mother suddenly felt a thump in her heart and took two steps forward to hold her hand.

"Cui Cui..."

"Needless to say!" Chen Xiaocui flicked her hand, "I don't want to hear this now. I just want to go home and lie down, take good care of myself, and then go find my little Ni'er."

She is finally smart for once!

An Nian sighed secretly and helped Li Youmei get on the tractor.

The tractor drove away with a roar.

Mother Chen held the baby girl in her hands, her expression changing again and again.

Juanzi stood beside her, watching the tractor go away, with a hint of joy in her eyes.

She couldn't finish the malted milk. She just poured it into her own glass jar and saved it for later eating.

Brown sugar, red dates, donkey hide gelatin, etc. were also hidden in the closet by her.

When she turned around and saw the dark expression on her mother-in-law's face, Juanzi was startled: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Mother Chen's face returned to calm: "It's okay, it's just that I didn't send my daughter out..."

"Oh, what's the point? I'll send her away after I give birth to this baby."

"That's different."

"What's different?" Juanzi blinked, a little confused.

"It's okay." Mother Chen lowered her head and glanced at the baby girl who had opened her eyes, then put her into Juanzi's arms. "She's awake, give her some milk."

-

There was tractor transportation at Yu's end, and the two villages were not far apart. It only took a quarter of an hour to get to the doorstep.

"Sister An Nian."

"Xiaoju?"

An Nian jumped off before the tractor stopped.

"Xiaoju, why did you come here alone?"

Xiaojue is the granddaughter of old man Zhao from the former county waste recycling station. An Nian and Yu Luyuan once rescued their grandson.

"I heard someone said that your family lost a child..."

Xiaoju approached her and whispered.

"Sister An Nian, when I went to the county to play with my friends today, I overheard something."

An Nian's eyes lit up slightly: "What's the news?"

Xiaoju waved to her, and An Nian bent down.

"They said the situation is tight now and they must send people out quickly. Chen Zhaodi's home is no longer safe."

Chen Zhaodi? !

An Nian's eyes widened in shock.

Isn't this the name of Cuicui's eldest sister? !

"Sister An Nian, I don't know if what I heard is useful. I just wanted to come over and have a look..."

"Very useful! Xiaoju, thank you."

An Nian took out a large handful of milk candies from his pocket and put them into her hand. "You can eat these candies first. When my sister gets the baby back, I will go to your house to express my solemn thanks."

Xiaoju grabbed the candy, her face flushed: "Sister An Nian, there is no need to thank me. You saved me and grandpa before, but I didn't repay you."

"It's two different things."

An Nian stretched out his hand and patted her little head, "Sister, I'm in an emergency now, so I can't send you home. Please be careful on your own journey."

"Yeah! Don't worry, Sister An Nian, I often run around here, it'll be fine."

The children in the village are all free-range, and they are in good spirits. They often go from one village to another, and they are very safe.

The tractor had already been driven back by Uncle Chen. It was inconvenient for Yu Luyuan to enter his sister-in-law's room, so he simply stood in the yard and waited for An Nian to finish speaking.

After seeing An Nian walking through the courtyard gate, he asked, "Is that Xiaoju just now?"

"It's her." An Nian nodded slightly, "Mom is still on the second floor?"

"Well, I haven't come down yet."

Yu Yuejin has moved to the second floor since he got married.

There are only two rooms on the second floor of the Yu family's house, and the rest is a large platform for drying.

Yu Yuejin and his wife lived on the second floor. The room was spacious and private.

"Okay, I'll go up and find her!"

Without Lu Yuan's reaction, An Nian climbed up the stairs in a few steps.

Yu Luyuan was a little funny: "He's so frizzy."

An Nian rushed into the room on the second floor and saw Li Youmei making the bed, and Chen Xiaocui beside her who was helping as much as possible.

"Cui Cui, where is your eldest sister's home?"

Chen Xiaocui was stunned for a moment: "In Hangkou Village."

It was a more remote village, no better than Lu'an Village and Hekou Village. Like its name, Hangkou Village was a pit, surrounded by mountains, with only a narrow road for entry and exit.

Seeing that An Nian didn't speak, Chen Xiaocui smiled bitterly.

"My eldest sister was sold into the family, and the gift from my brother-in-law's family was very high. But..."

She bit her lip: "But my eldest brother-in-law is 20 years older than my sister and is an old widower."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xiaocui buried her head deeply, not daring to look at An Nian.

"Keng Hau Village..."

An Nian didn't mean to look down on her, but just frowned.

"How to get to Hang Hau Village? Can a car drive in?"

"Ok?"

The expected contempt did not come. Chen Xiaocui relaxed and wondered about An Nian's next question.

"Sister-in-law, do you want to go to Hangkou Village? It's so remote. I've only been there once, when my eldest sister got married.

If you want to enter Hang Hau Village, you must first take a twenty-mile bus ride and then walk in alone.

Their village is in a mountain valley. They have to climb to the top of the mountain first and then go down. The road is very difficult. "

An Nian smiled and did not express his suspicions. There was no point in saying something that had not yet been confirmed.

"A friend asked me to bring some things to her family. Her family is from Hangkou Village."

"Is that so..."

Chen Xiaocui didn't know much about things in Hangkou Village and couldn't help An Nian.

She thought for a while and said, "Sister-in-law, let me draw you a map. I am very impressed with the route into Hangkou Village. You should be able to walk in using my map. Once inside, you can find someone."

"Okay, thank you Cuicui."

"fine."

Chen Xiaocui smiled shyly. She leaned over and took out a pen and paper from the drawer on the bed and began to write and draw.

She felt very happy to be able to help this powerful sister-in-law.

It will be drawn soon.

An Nian took the piece of paper.

"My handwriting is not very good..."

"It's okay, I can see clearly."

An Nian put it away with a smile and found that her mother-in-law had already made the bed and was looking at the two of them.

She supported Chen Xiaocui and said, "Cui Cui, lie down and rest first."

"it is good."

Chen Xiaocui was lying on the soft pillow, smelling the quilt that smelled like sunshine, and felt that her whole body came to life.

When she saw An Nian turning around to leave, she suddenly remembered something and immediately sat up straight.

"Sister-in-law!"

"Ok?"

"Don't go to Hangkou Village alone!" Chen Xiaocui's eyes widened. "Kengkou Village is too poor. Many of the men there can't get wives... If you go in alone, you may be in danger."

An Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, understood what she meant, and nodded: "Okay, I will take your eldest brother with me."

Chen Xiaocui laughed: "That's good. I'll feel relieved if I have my eldest brother with you."

My eldest uncle's size and ability are absolutely no problem.

She heard Yuejin say that his eldest uncle had climbed to the position of battalion commander by relying on his own skills.

"take a good rest."

After An Nian got the address, he turned around and left Chen Xiaocui's room.

After going downstairs, she went straight to where Lu Yuan was.

"Yuanyuan, let's go out for a while."

"Okay." Yu Luyuan stood up from the bench without asking any further questions.

Yu Luyuan was chatting with Yu Zhengjun.

An Nian looked at Yu Zhengjun and said with a smile: "Dad, Yuanyuan and I may come back later. You and mom don't have to wait for us to eat."

Seeing her hurried expression, Yu Zhengjun guessed that something was urgent, so he nodded directly and said: "Okay, you two should pay attention to your safety."

-

After walking out of the Yu family courtyard, Yu Luyuan asked: "Nian Nian, where are we going?"

"Go to Hang Hau Village."

An Nian handed over the paper in his hand: "I just got the news that Xiao Nier may be hidden in Hangkou Village."

Yu Luyuan looked at her: "Did Xiaoju say that?"

"Ah."

An Nian told Yu Luyuan exactly what Xiaoju said before.

Yu Luyuan's eyebrows narrowed slightly: "Is she Chen Xiaocui's eldest sister?"

"We're not sure yet, let's sneak over and take a look first." An Nian picked up the bag in his hand and concealed a pack of biscuits in it. "Just think of it as visiting the eldest sister on behalf of Cuicui."

"it is good."

Yu Luyuan nodded in agreement.

The two came to the roadside to wait for the bus.

It's only ten o'clock in the morning. According to experience, the second bus goes to the mountains at this time.

The county has a total of three shuttle buses a day to and from the villages within the radiation range, one in the morning, one in the middle and one in the evening, which is very reasonably distributed.

"Eat something first."

An Nian took out two cakes from the space and gave one to Yu Luyuan.

The flow rate of her space and time is the same as that of the outside world, and it cannot be kept fresh, so she usually only puts some cooked food that can withstand it, and can eat it directly after taking it out.

After waiting for almost half an hour, the shuttle bus came over staggeringly.

The two got into the car.

The car was as crowded as before. The chickens, ducks and geese bought by the villagers were all in it, and the smell was really not good.

Moreover, the two of them got on the bus halfway, and there were no seats at all, so they could only stand.

An Nian leaned in Yu Lu Yuan's arms, as if he had returned to the time when the two first met.

Smelling the familiar smell on his body, An Nian felt safe.

The car drove closer and closer to the mountain, and the number of people on the car gradually decreased.

More than an hour later, the car stopped at the foot of the mountain.

"Okay, this is the terminal! Everyone, get off the bus quickly!"

The conductor roared, waking up the drowsy passengers.

An Nian and Yu Luyuan got out of the car.

An old man and a young man got off the bus with them.

They all carried poles on their shoulders, and the weight of the things made the poles bend.

The four people walked one behind the other.

Until they almost reached the top of the mountain, the old man who was lagging behind staggered and was about to fall.

Yu Luyuan, with his sharp eyesight and quick hands, grabbed one end of the pole and grabbed it with his arm strength.

The old man and the young man beside him were in shock, and it took a lot of effort to calm down.

"Young man, you are so strong!"

The old man looked at Yu Luyuan in amazement.

"Isn't your skill like that of an ordinary person?"

Yu Luyuan laughed and helped the old man adjust the pole so that he could hold it firmly on his shoulders.

"The old man has good eyesight. I am a soldier."

"Oh, you are actually a soldier! You are a good man who protects your home and country!"

Reverence suddenly appeared in the old man's eyes, and he looked at Yu Luyuan as if he were looking at his own nephew. This is the deepest love that the older generation has for the soldiers.

"Why did you take this road? Are you also from Hangkou Village? Why have I never seen you before?"

There were less than a hundred households in Hang Hau Village, and he knew them all, but he had never met Yu Luyuan.

"I am not from Hangkou Village. This time I am accompanying my wife to visit relatives."

Yu Luyuan answered with a smile.

"So that's it... Which family are your wife's relatives from?"

"Yes, brother, who are you looking for? Maybe I can show you the way."

The boy also spoke.

When they didn't know each other just now, he was still very shy, but now that he saw that his grandfather had already struck up a conversation with him, he immediately became cheerful.

Yu Luyuan smiled and looked at An Nian who was silent beside him.

"Uncle is looking for the Niu family."

"Niu family? Are you a relative of Niu Dalang?"
