In the 1960s, a woman dressed as a man and a general came to give birth to a baby

"Mom, the pot is boiling"

Zhang's mother reacted immediately and pulled out some firewood.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Yu asked with concern.

"No, nothing, just a little tired."

Zhang's mother answered stutteringly.

"Oh, is herding sheep tiring? If so, let's try another job."

Zhang Yu was afraid that his mother would be tired.

"Not tired, not tired, this is one of the best jobs, I just thought of your father again"

As she spoke, Zhang's mother started sobbing again.

"Mom, don't cry. You'll hurt your body if you cry, and Dad will be worried too."

Zhang Yu hurried to comfort her.

"But I feel sad. We have only had a few days of good life."

As she spoke, Zhang's mother looked a little flustered, and her sobbing became much quieter.

"What are we going to eat for lunch today? I'm almost starving. When I came back, I was still thinking about what to cook, but I couldn't find anything."

Zhang Yu quickly changed the subject.

"How can you cook? I have never touched a stove since I was a child. Don't waste anything."

Zhang's mother was pleased that her son, who only knew how to study, was willing to cook for her.

"I just wanted to let you take a break. I think it shouldn't be difficult."

Zhang Yu was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

He remembered that his original self couldn’t cook, so he hypnotized himself, “I” - Zhang Yu - a grown man can’t cook.

For lunch, they had sweet potato rice, which was dry, and a plate of pickled vegetables. Zhang Yu couldn't tell what the vegetables were, but they were very salty.

After dinner, Zhang's mother urged Zhang Yu to go back and rest.

Zhang Yu returned to the room. The room was not big. There was only a big wooden bed, a rectangular table, a chair with armrests, and a double-door cabinet with peeling leather. Apart from that, there was no electricity in the house.

From the original body's things, Zhang Yu took out an enamel pot, 15 yuan and two tickets for one pound, and quickly put them into the space.

The bell for the afternoon work rang, and Zhang Yu and his daughter followed the crowd to work.

Zhang Yu continued his study career.

Zhangjia Village, near the sheepfold

Zhang's mother met the young man who had come to see her before.

"mother"

The young man called out. He looked a few years older than Zhang Yu and looked very similar to Zhang's mother.

"Why are you here again?"

Zhang's mother looked around frantically, and was relieved when she saw that there was no one around.

"Mom, look at what you said, didn't I come to see you?"

Faced with her son who suddenly came to find her, Zhang's mother felt more conflicted than happy.

This is something Zhang's mother doesn't want to mention.

In fact, before Zhang's mother married Zhang's father, she had been married before, but there was a famine and the child's father died. In order to escape the famine better, she gave the child away.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, the child came back to her again. She had her doubts, but they looked too similar.

When I got home from work, Zhang's mother still hadn't come back.

"Zhang Yu" couldn't cook. It was the end of August and there were waves of heat. He immediately went back to his room and went into the space to cool off.

After more than half an hour, Zhang Yu came out of the space and heard noises outside the house. Zhang's mother had returned and was cooking.

"Xiaoyu, how was your work today? Are you getting used to it?"

Zhang's mother was still a little dazed. When she saw her son, she asked with concern while cooking.

"No problem, Mom, don't worry."

Zhang Yu didn't notice anything wrong with Zhang's mother. He thought she was still immersed in the sadness of Zhang's father's death.

"That's good, that's good. Your father is gone, so mom depends on you. It's just that your father didn't see you get married and have children."

Mother Zhang looked at Zhang Yu and said thoughtfully.

"Mom, mom, wait a minute, my dad just passed away, how can I be in the mood to get married?"

Zhang Yu quickly interrupted his mother and changed the subject, "Mom, what are we having for dinner tonight?"

"Mom, why did you come back so late today? When I came back, I saw that everyone had finished work."

While eating, Zhang Yu was a little confused. He was the scorekeeper and should have come back last. Why was Zhang's mother even later than him?

"Oh, today I saw the sheepfold was a little dirty, so I cleaned it up. It took me some time. Although the villagers took care of it, I can't let others say anything, right?"

Zhang's mother explained in a panic.

"Oh, so will we clean every day from now on?"

"No, I just need to clean more frequently during this period of time, so I can relax a little later."

"That's good"

"Xiao Yu, it's been more than a month since you graduated. When are you going to get your diploma?"

While eating, Zhang's mother changed the subject.

"Oh, then I'll take a day off from work tomorrow, and go to school the day after tomorrow to get my diploma back."

Remembering that he hadn't gotten his diploma back yet, Zhang Yu responded, "Graduating from high school is considered a high level of education, so he had to get it back."

Now Zhang Yu has gotten used to the way his man looks, and after taking a shower, he goes back to his room to sleep.

Under the kerosene lamp, Zhang's mother's expression was hard to read. She felt unhappy when she thought that her "eldest" son came to ask her for money today.

Although the money was left by the "eldest" son's father, it was brought by her. The selfishness in her bones made Zhang's mother look ferocious.

The next day at work, Zhang Yu asked for leave as Zhang Da Mao ignored him and took the ox cart to the town.

Due to the busy farming season, there are not many people on the ox cart today, except for Aunt Zhang in a big hat and a girl with a melon-shaped face, sword-like eyebrows and big eyes.

"Aunt, are you going to town? What is this?"

"Well, Luo Ying, don't wander around when we get to town."

Aunt Zhang, who was dissatisfied with Zhang Yuqiang for taking her son away, responded and ignored Zhang Yu.

When she saw Zhang Yu, the girl blushed and shyly hid behind Aunt Zhang.

“Moo~~”

"Hold on tight"

"bang"

The car Zhang Yu and his companions were riding in was overturned by a reckless bull.

"Luoying, Luoying, how are you? Wake up!"

Several people were knocked off the cart, and the village driver was trying to comfort his beloved ox.

Hearing the sound, Zhang Yu came over to see if he could help.

Miss Luoying's tightly closed eyes suddenly widened.

"Luoying, I'm glad you're okay. I was scared to death."

The girl named Luo Ying saw Zhang Yu looking at her and glared at him fiercely. This expression made the already handsome girl even more heroic.

The general who just came through - Ma Luoying (Ma Luoying): His face is too pale and he is too thin. What is the point of a man being so handsome? Humph

Zhang Yu: I became so handsome after falling down. I like it. So embarrassing~ Well, getting married and having children is Zhang's father's wish after all, so it's better that he fulfills it.

By this time the mad cow had already run away, and the few people had no choice but to continue on their way.

Gongshan Town is a prosperous area in the surrounding area.

The high school where Zhang Yu studied was on the west side of the central street of Gongshan Town.

Zhang Yu went straight to the school. Since he had just graduated, the security guard knew Zhang Yu. When he learned that Zhang Yu was there to get his diploma, he pointed him in the direction.

The teacher on duty was Zhang Yu's homeroom teacher, Mr. Xue. After giving him the diploma, Mr. Xue asked him with concern why he came to get it just now.

Zhang Yu told Teacher Xue about his father's accident. Teacher Xue was very sad and comforted Zhang Yu for a while. Then he asked:

"Zhang Yu, what are your plans for the future? Are you going to take the exam again next year?"

"No, I plan to find a job in town."

"That's right. I remember when Wang Xiao from our class came to get his diploma a while ago, he mentioned that the textile factory in town was recruiting workers. Can you give it a try?"

Is this really a pillow sent to you when you are sleepy? He thanked Teacher Xue and walked towards the textile factory.

Zhangjia Village, Back Mountain

Zhang's mother brought her carefully selected belongings and sneaked to the place where the two had agreed to meet.

She didn't want others to know her past, as it would disrupt her comfortable life.

When we arrived, the young man was already waiting.

"Mom, you're here"

"Son, I didn't bring much with me, so I'll give it to you. Live well with it and just pretend that you don't have me as your mother."

Having said that, Zhang's mother handed the belongings to her eldest son and turned away.

Looking at Zhang's mother walking away, the eldest son showed a strange smile on his face, and said quietly:

"Mom, the way you lied is exactly the same as in my memory. Don't worry, I will come again and take better care of my brother, just like I took care of Uncle Dazhuang, hehe..."
