Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Looking at her tall and handsome grandson, Yang Guixiang still remembers how little he was back then, crying and calling for his father and mother.

He's grown up so fast in the blink of an eye, but because of me, no matchmaker has come to visit him even though he's reached marriageable age.

Yang Guixiang sighed, "Alas, I've dragged you down."

Gu Yuzhi was displeased: "No, I never wanted to go on a date or associate with anyone else."

"I'd be happy to stay by your side."

At sixty years old, Yang Guixiang had long anticipated the day she would pass away.

But she still felt a little uncomfortable about what her daughter had said. She wasn't afraid of dying, but she was worried about her grandson.

On the other side, the train chugged forward.

In the bustling carriage, Akahoshi opened his eyes and saw a group of young people wearing retro shirts. Some of them were reading books, and some were singing revolutionary songs.

Looking at the somewhat old train carriages, Akahoshi searched his mind for information about this small world.

250 should speak up promptly.

[Your Highness, this is a historical novel. As the title suggests, it is set in an era that has just undergone significant changes.]

In 1973, urban educated youth were required to go to the countryside to participate in collective labor, and the protagonist, Cheng Li, was one of them.

Akahoshi: [What about the original body?]

Akahoshi had a bad feeling about this.

250: ?

250 flipped through the plot and found that the original owner of this body was not mentioned at all.

The little black cat flipped through the pages again and scratched the kitten's head.

[In this story, the original owner of the body, Akahoshi, was a heart patient who died at the age of three.]

The three-year-old's only wish was to eat sweet ice cream, and that little wish has long since been fulfilled.

Akahoshi:? ?

So, where is my dear family? Where is my brother?

250: [Sorry, Your Highness, there's a slight bug in the plot that might need fixing, but it's alright, we won't be able to return to the city for another five years.]

Akahoshi was unhappy: "So, that means I have to work hard for five years on my own."

Five years. Do you know how I'm going to spend these five years? Do you even know?

250: Here we go again.

The immortal lord lives in the countryside.

Akahoshi's mood improved a bit: "Five years isn't impossible."

He's not some delicate little flower, what's a little hardship to him?

The educated youths opposite had stopped to rest. Akahoshi glanced over and knew without a doubt that the most eye-catching one was the protagonist.

[Yes, this is the protagonist, Cheng Li. The protagonist, Gu Ye, is a rough-around-the-edges guy from the village.]

250 continued: "After arriving in the village, Cheng Li fell in love with Gu Ye at first sight. Unfortunately, Gu Ye had no idea that two men could fall in love, so Cheng Li had to find a way to 'turn him gay.'"

First, she tried her best to get close to him, but unfortunately, Gu Ye often left early and returned late, not giving him a chance to get close.

Cheng Li could only deliberately approach other villagers, including a young man named Gu Yuzhi.

Xicun is a village with multiple surnames, but only these two families have the surname Gu, and they live very close to each other.

Gu Yuzhi initially thought he was just visiting, but seeing him come every day started to seem strange.

After that, Cheng Li simply had someone help build a house near Gu Ye's house, and would bring food to Gu Yu's house so that they could cook and eat together, and go to and from work together.

In order to turn Gu Ye gay, Cheng Li deliberately took Gu Yuzhi up the mountain to set a trap, hoping to meet Gu Ye there.

However, after the two had been together for a long time, Gu Yuzhi, who didn't like women to begin with, couldn't help but overthink things.

Cheng Li was good at creating an ambiguous atmosphere, and her intention was to attract Gu Ye's attention, but she didn't expect that Gu Yuzhi next to her had already blushed.

Even before Gu Yuzhi understood his own feelings, Cheng Li continued to visit every few days.

At the youth gathering, Cheng Li got drunk and mumbled something about Gu. The other youths thought he was calling for Gu Yuzhi, assuming the two were close.

He simply called Gu Yuzhi over and asked Gu Yuzhi to take him home.

Perhaps because she was drunk, Cheng Li mistook Gu Yuzhi for Gu Ye and planted a kiss on his cheek.

It was this kiss that made Gu Yuzhi lose her mind, and from then on she was willing to become his devoted follower.

This also became the biggest obstacle for Gu Ye and Cheng Li to be together, causing Gu Ye to often oppose him.

After many misunderstandings, jealousy, and ambiguity, Cheng Li finally managed to turn Gu Ye gay, and even made Gu Ye chase after him.

The two poured out their hearts to each other in the grove, and also told each other about how they had used Gu Yuzhi in the past.

Little did he know, Gu Yuzhi heard everything clearly from behind, and he ran home in a daze.

Just then, Grandma Gu, Yang Guixiang, fell in the rain and passed away a couple of days later.

Devastated by this double blow, Gu Yuzhi shut herself in her room, heartbroken and devastated.

Cheng Li and her companion had already rolled around in the cornfield countless times.

Despite this, Cheng Li still kept Gu Yuzhi hanging, saying things like, "I consider you my best brother."

The good times didn't last long. Cheng Li and Gu Ye were caught red-handed rolling around in the cornfield, but only Cheng Li was caught.

Cheng Li couldn't possibly implicate Gu Ye, so the villagers had no choice but to search his house. They found a love letter addressed to Gu.

Many people have speculated about the meaning of the character "顾" in Gu Ye and Gu Yu.

Without hesitation, Cheng Li pinned the blame on Gu Yuzhi, and just like that, Gu Yuzhi was arrested for hooliganism.

Cheng Li, due to his family connections, claimed that he was deceived by Gu Yuzhi and acted out of momentary confusion, and was only imprisoned for a few months.

Gu Yuzhi was sent to a cowshed, where he did the hardest and most tiring work. He was beaten, scolded, and bullied, and died within two years.

Cheng Li felt guilty after learning about this, but his guilt didn't last long.

Rekindling their old flame with Gu Ye, the two took the college entrance examination and were admitted to universities in Beijing. Riding the wave of the times, they became wealthy businessmen.

Seeing Akahoshi's increasingly grim expression, 250 whispered, "[This is all part of the original plot. You're all still on the train; there's still time.]"

Chi Xing clenched his fists tightly and glared fiercely at Cheng Li over there.

Angry!

Ah Yu actually likes someone else!

The Heavenly Jealous King got jealous, extremely jealous, and silently lit a candle for Cheng Li and Gu Ye.

Why not Gu Yuzhi? Because after His Highness sees the Immortal Lord, he will surely feel heartache again and say:

What did Ayu do wrong? He was just deceived; he was the victim!

Although those who deserve punishment will be punished, the punishment... well, let's just say it's a joke. They'll just have to silently hide in a dark room and wait there.

Throughout the journey, Akahoshi did not utter another word.

After getting off the train, the group boarded a vintage-style bus.

After wandering around for several hours, they finally boarded the oxcart assigned to Xicun Village.

Akahoshi was so shocked by the light that his face turned pale and his stomach churned.

When had the young master ever suffered like this? The thought that Ayu could actually like someone else made him feel even more aggrieved.

After wandering around for most of the day, we finally arrived at Xicun Brigade.

As soon as Akahoshi got off the oxcart, he went to the side and vomited, tears welling up in his big eyes.
