"The heroine's mother has gone mad, but she has lost the chance to enter this world again. Every host has only one chance to enter the current world. Once you lose this opportunity, it will never come back."

Gu Lixia was still very curious. "What happened next?"

"The heroine's choice of a man married the young woman from outside and returned home. The family is harmonious and happy. They have a son and a daughter. No one will remember the heroine anymore."

Gu Lixia felt that this result was both unexpected and expected. So she asked the system, "System, are you warning me?"

"No. I'm just sharing a piece of gossip with you. The system has no emotions. You know all this."

Gu Lixia was silent for a long time before making a promise. "A selfish person like me wouldn't be selfless enough to dedicate myself to others. Don't worry. I'm going to rest now."

Gu Lixia disconnected from the system and fell asleep in the moonlight.

After a dreamless night, Jiang Wen woke up first. When he got up from the ground, he made too much noise and woke up Gu Lixia with a thud.

Gu Lixia asked in a hoarse voice, "Morning, what time is it?"

"5.40, I'm going out to fetch some water. I used up all the water yesterday when I washed up. You can sleep a little longer."

Gu Lixia heard it, but it was only 5:40, so she didn't plan to get up and turned over. "Okay, go ahead."

Jiang Wen went to the kitchen and got two buckets of water. He came out to the courtyard wall, took the shoulder pole hanging on the wall, opened the door and went out.

At this point, especially those who were farther away, were already carrying buckets and carrying poles and approaching the well again.

It was mostly men who carried water.

Because when a woman wakes up in the morning, she already has a lot of housework to do. She has to clean the house, take care of the children, and cook.

The factory cafeteria doesn’t provide much breakfast, but mostly provides lunch and dinner.

And it can only be eaten by the workers themselves.

In the beginning, workers were allowed to bring their families to dine.

As a result, since the canteen was cheaper, even more cost-effective than cooking at home, a large number of workers brought their families to eat, resulting in only a small number of people being able to eat, and the real workers were starving.

The workers didn't feel resentful the first or second time, but after so many times, they gathered at the door of the factory director's office and opposed bringing their families to eat.

So later the factory set a fixed number of workers and then sold some of them meal tickets.

Meal tickets are not sold to everyone, but to single workers who are raising children alone.

To ensure that workers can work in the factory with peace of mind.

Later, it was discovered that this was not a long-term solution, so the factory also had the task of finding partners for the workers.

Major factories often hold social activities.

As long as there is a need for unmarried young people who are on duty or not on duty that day.

Both men and women can switch shifts with married people to go on blind dates.

As more and more such activities were held and everyone started their own families and careers, the factory no longer needed to sell this kind of meal tickets.

Today's steel mills only cook enough food for their workers.

This is an age of scarcity and waste is not allowed.

I made too much at noon and had left over for dinner.

No one is allowed to waste food.

Even the ignorant children at home would pick up some rice with their hands and feed it to themselves if it fell on the table.

Because this generation has experienced wars of aggression.

After the imperialists launched a full-scale war of aggression, the people were oppressed and devastated, living in dire straits, and mixed society was a great suffering at that time.

Only invaders can eat rice, and if our own people eat it, they will be severely punished.

He lost everything and was sent to jail.

The soul returns to heaven.

The invaders implemented the Three Alls Policy: burn everything, rob everything, and kill everything.

Finally, after tens of millions of people drove away the invaders, our country was established in the world.

Ten years have passed.

Then came the three-year period of natural disasters.

The most common thing people eat is the thin soup. In the first year, it was the sweet potato noodle soup or sweet potato starch soup that was so thick that you could see your reflection in it.

The next year, I boiled radishes and made porridge with dried sweet potatoes.

Many people even died on the way begging.

There is even a nursery rhyme that says, when you walk into the cafeteria, you see a large pot of food, you can see the person in the pot and the soul in the bowl.

By the third year, there was a food shortage and people had to eat the stalks, shells and skins of crops.

Even later on, some people did not have the conditions to hold a wake after their death.

The body was hastily buried that day, and the next morning, the family discovered that the body had been taken away.

During those extremely difficult years, people who were struggling on the brink of death every day showed a spirit no less than Shennong's tasting of hundreds of herbs, and tried almost all the flowers, birds, fish and insects they could understand.

The most popular tree at that time was the elm tree, because elm trees would produce elm seeds in spring.

In summer, elm leaves can be used to make nests, and in autumn, the bark can be ground into powder and used to make nests.

Later, anything that was exposed and had a little green on it that was edible was gone.

In order to survive, some housewives tore their clothes and ate the cotton wool inside.

Later, some people were so hungry that they started eating dirt.

Guanyin soil is found all over the country, with different colors and shapes.

The refugee memories of eating it, although it looks soft and greasy like white dough, are difficult to swallow once you put it in your mouth, just like eating dirt.

In fact, no one would eat Guanyin soil unless there was no way to eat even tree bark or grass roots. Anyone who ate the soil had one foot in the palace of Hades.

Even during long periods of famine, cannibalism and even the digging up of graves to eat corpses occurred.

And people nowadays.

Especially city people.

The family's food supply consisted of two thin meals and one thick meal a day, which was considered a good meal.

When Jiang Wen joined the queue, there were about 30 people ahead of him, all of whom were already chatting enthusiastically.

It turned out that Uncle Guo from the compound was complaining about his daughter. "My daughter heard that cool drinks are all the rage out there. She was making a fuss all night yesterday. She said she wanted to go buy some. But our local supply and marketing cooperative didn't have any. She said she wanted to take the train to buy some somewhere else. But her mother stopped her and beat her up."

"You have two sons and one daughter. You love your daughter like the apple of your eye. Don't you always buy her whatever she wants? Why didn't you buy her this time?" Uncle Liu was the one who added fuel to the fire.

"There's nothing I can do. My girl is capable. She found a good son-in-law for me. If he didn't have that ability, I would beat her every day." Uncle Guo was very proud.

"How long has your daughter been married? She still lives at home. How long has she been living there? More than a year, right? Can't your son-in-law take his wife over? Only by taking her over can they have a baby." I don't know who took over the conversation. This was a kind-hearted person who was considering the two young people.
