Eating melons and raising children in the period literature

Chapter 2: Yang Qingqing's miserable life

Yang Qingqing is so speechless right now. If she wasn't afraid of the pain, she would have wanted to bang her head against the wall and die.

The person who traveled through time from Yang Qingqing is also called Yang Qingqing

But I lived in a place called Xiaguo, which was equivalent to the 60s in China.

The country was founded only a few years ago. Although the domestic situation is relatively peaceful, there are still many spies.

There are still wars in neighboring countries

Besides, the country has just experienced a war and everything needs to be rebuilt.

The past two years have also seen a three-year natural disaster. In a word, people here are still struggling to make ends meet.

In the 60s, Yang Qingqing's parents were both soldiers, but when Yang Qingqing was 5 years old, they died in the line of duty. Fortunately, Yang Qingqing had two older brothers who were both adults.

To explain why there is such a big gap between my two older brothers, I have to say that when my second brother was born, my mother had a difficult delivery, and the doctor said that if I didn’t take good care of him, he would not be able to have children in the future.

It was a time of chaos and war, and my father said that having two sons was enough, and he would not have any more children. Then he did not plan to have any more children. But after the liberation of the country, my mother got pregnant again a few years later, and that's how we had Yang Qingqing. My father didn't want the child at first, but my mother insisted on keeping it.

anyway

At that time, Yang Qingqing's eldest brother was 20 years old and had been a soldier in the army for 3 years. He had just started dating someone and was planning to meet their parents to discuss marriage.

The elder and second brothers discussed that the second brother should retire from the army, go home and find a job to support his younger sister.

Otherwise, I can see if I can apply for a family housing to take my sister to accompany the army, but there is no one to take care of the child.

The eldest sister-in-law thinks that he can marry the eldest brother. Also, considering that their parents just died and the eldest sister-in-law is also a soldier, she wants to see if she can get the leader to make some concessions and apply to let the younger sister accompany the army. This way, the younger sister can go to school and the eldest sister-in-law can pick her up and drop her off every day without affecting her work at all. She can also ask the neighbors for help when there are tasks.

At this time, the eldest sister-in-law hesitated for a moment before agreeing to marry the eldest brother, applying for family housing, and raising her younger sister Yang Qingqing together. Although the eldest sister-in-law has no relatives, it is really precious to do so.

I have to say that people were really simple and honest at that time. If it were the case in modern society, there would be so many things to deal with before getting married, and they would have to raise a younger sister even though they haven't even given birth to a child themselves.

Where does one get the courage to let a daughter-in-law who has not yet married raise a younger sister?

But in that era, there were many such things, after all, too many people died in the war.

In this way, the eldest brother Yang Qingshan and the eldest sister-in-law Dong Xuemei got married. They applied for a family housing unit and did not hold a wedding banquet. The eldest brother, the second brother, the sister-in-law and Yang Qingqing just had a meal of vegetarian dumplings.

Soon the family housing was approved, and Yang Qingqing lived with her elder brother and his wife. In order to make Yang Qingqing feel better, her elder sister-in-law did not have children in the first few years of their marriage.

My second brother also left for the Northeast Military Region soon. We usually just wrote to each other and didn't see each other for several years.

When my second brother was 24, he also married Ma Liyue, a nurse in the military area. After marriage, he also had a son and two daughters. His life was pretty good.

My eldest brother and his wife had their eldest son Yang Wenxuan five years after their marriage. The following year, they adopted the five-year-old child of my eldest brother's comrade-in-arms, Liu Wenjing.

Later, they gave birth to a boy named Yang Wenyuan and a girl named Yang Wenqian.

It is 1969, my nephew is 6, my niece is 10, my nephew is 4, and my niece is 3

Her family still lived in a small courtyard in the military area. Her brother was the head of a regiment and her sister-in-law was a military doctor. It could be said that they were very happy.

Yang Qingqing will be able to make money soon. After all, Yang Qingqing has just finished the recruitment examination of the military hospital, and the result will be announced tomorrow.

As a result, I received a message in the afternoon saying that my brother had died and my sister-in-law was seriously injured. They had just been rushed to the military hospital for emergency treatment.

Yang Qingqing didn't have time to digest the news when she heard it, she knew her sister-in-law was in the military hospital.

He immediately rushed there, but fortunately the comrade who came to notify him drove there and took Yang Qingqing to the hospital.

My sister-in-law just came out of the operating room. The doctor asked the family members to come in and have a few words. There is no hope.

Yang Qingqing was completely unable to think, and was pushed into the ward by the people around her. She stood in front of the bed and looked at her weak sister-in-law, who was holding her hand.

"Qingqing, I'm sorry to you and the children for not bringing your brother back. I'm going to look for your brother soon. You have to live well, live well..."

After saying that, she let go of her hand, and my sister-in-law closed her eyes and stopped breathing.

Yang Qingqing seemed to react suddenly, and fell backwards

After another busy day, Yang Qingqing opened her eyes again and it was Yang Qingqing of the 21st century.

After Yang Qingqing digested the memories of the 60s, she felt sick

In this place with no food or water, not only have I become an orphan, but now I have four children to take care of?

This is a person who has no one to love and has a burden

"I really want to die" Yang Qingqing has no desire to live

But she didn't have the courage to die. After all, a good death is worse than a miserable life.

Yang Qingqing then remembered that it was already 6pm and her nephews and nieces should be out of school, but she couldn't leave the house alone.

Yang Qingqing was discharged from the hospital immediately. Fortunately, she had some money with her. Otherwise, she would have had to borrow money before she could leave.

Yang Qingqing walked quickly all the way and it took her more than an hour to get home. Fortunately, it was summer and it got dark late. If it was winter, it would be difficult. After all, she was afraid of the dark and dared not walk at night. There were no street lights.

When Yang Qingqing got home, she saw her nephews and nieces sitting quietly on the steps at the entrance of the main hall, as if they had been crying.

“…Um…Um…Wenjing…Wenxuan…” Yang Qingqing didn’t know what to say for a moment.

After all, she had just arrived and hadn't digested all these things yet. How could she tell these children such cruel things?

"Have you all eaten?" Putting aside other things, children cannot be hungry.

"Aunt, are mom and dad never coming back?" Wenxuan asked, holding the corner of his clothes tightly.

"Who told you that? You..." Yang Qingqing didn't know what to say, and returned with a stiff face.

"After school today, people in the family compound were saying that the head of the Second Regiment and his wife had died. We all heard it. Aunt, do you think what they said is true?" Yang Wenxuan's eyes were filled with tears, but he still stubbornly opened his eyes and looked at Yang Qingqing.

The other children also looked at Yang Qingqing with tears on their faces, as if they were afraid that she would say something bad.

But this is not something that can be forgotten without saying it. Yang Qingqing himself lost his parents at a young age, and he knows that feeling.

Although Yang Qingqing, who traveled through time, had no difference between having a child and not having one, he knew what it felt like to be without a father or a mother.

"It's true, my elder brother and sister-in-law died," Yang Qingqing said with tears streaming down her face.

After that, the two little ones started to cry loudly, looking for their parents. The older one also had tears all over his face.

Yang Qingqing came forward and hugged Wen Yuan and Wen Qian

"Auntie...I don't know what to do. Auntie really doesn't know what to do." Cry, cry, you will feel better after crying

Yang Qingqing took out a pack of biscuits from the house and distributed them to the children.

Only the two little ones ate a little while crying. The others didn't eat and just cried themselves to sleep.

Yang Qingqing settled the children down before she had time to think carefully about her time travel.

Yang Qingqing felt like she was being cheated, and she had no place to complain. She felt so frustrated.

"Now, what should I do? First, I need to notify my second brother Yang Qinghe and my second sister-in-law Ma Liyue. I don't know if they will come," Yang Qingqing said to herself.

"They should come. After all, my sister-in-law has no family members, and my brother only has my second brother and Yang Qingqing.

My second sister-in-law has her family, and I don’t know if the children will come.

I shouldn't be discovered to be a time traveler now, right? After all, it's normal to have some changes when things suddenly change. I won't be arrested, right?

What the hell is this?

So annoying

Not easy at all

Is it as rare for anyone to travel through time as it is for me?

The key is what to do with the four children. The eldest is not my biological child, and the others are still so young.

This doesn't seem to be possible, after all, Yang Qingqing was raised by her elder brother and his wife.

You can't be ungrateful.

But how can I raise four little kids by myself?

This is not talking

This is going to happen year after year, day after day.

what……

What should I do?" Yang Qingqing felt like she was going crazy.

This crossing is simply

It is nothing like what is written in other novels. The time-traveling girl comes to the door with a bang, slaps her face crazily, flies all the way, and reaches the peak of her life.

If the system is still there, I will tell Yang Qingqing, "I already told you that this is a period novel. What you want is a farming novel. You don't even have this option."

"This is a bit strange. Why do I feel that the me now is different from the me who just traveled through time?

I shouldn't have any deep feelings for those little brats.

Why do I feel so uncomfortable now when I think about not being able to see them in the future? I can hardly breathe.

This is unscientific

What is going on?

Yang Qingqing thought about it and still couldn't figure it out. After all, this was her only chance, and she had no other chance to experience it.

"Could this be the original owner's wish? Otherwise, why would I feel so uncomfortable just thinking about it?"

"Don't worry, I will definitely raise the children well and will never let them suffer any injustice." Yang Qingqing said this to the air and felt relieved.

"It seems that this is really the original owner's last wish, so I must fulfill it. Otherwise, I will be in such a state of panic that it will cost me my life.

Besides, I am so much older than the original owner, so I am taking advantage. After all, rejuvenation still requires some compensation," Yang Qingqing consoled herself.

"I don't know who is more miserable, the original owner or I. I have a father and a mother, and it's the same as not having one, but I have money, a car, and a house, and I can eat and drink enough, and I have entertainment.

The original owner really had no parents, but she had an older brother and sister-in-law who loved her sincerely, a younger brother and sister-in-law who cared about her, and a group of lovely nephews and nieces, but she didn't have enough to eat or drink.

In this year, people could not eat rice or flour twice, let alone meat. People who could eat meat several times a year were considered to be well-off.

It's hard to say who's doing well or not.

After all, one is material wealth, and the other is spiritual wealth." Yang Qingqing thought about the difference between the original owner and herself.

"What should I do tomorrow? Although I have the original owner's memory, this is my first time to actually operate it. What should I do!!!" Yang Qingqing fell asleep while thinking about it.
