Time Travel: Volume 1! Starting from a Small Mountain Village

Hearing that her parents wanted to stay for dinner, Zuo Shuli was very happy and quickly went into the kitchen to start cooking! Back then, there had always been conflicts between her and her father because of the issue of having children.

They rarely come home over the years, let alone have a meal at home. When the elderly miss the children, they send Long Lifan and the others to visit them!

In recent years, she even retired from public life because of her family matters. She has always felt guilty about this, and she couldn't be happier to be able to have a meal with her family now.

"System, do you have any medicine that can change one's constitution?"

The thought of going to the countryside and being away for several years, even though she could come back to visit relatives during the Spring Festival, made Long Lifan worry about her grandparents' health, as they were too far away.

"Yes, host." As soon as the system's voice fell, a glass container of reagent appeared in your mind!

"Given the current balance in your account, I recommend this Reagent No. 1. Priced at 199 yuan, it can greatly enhance the body's immunity and has a certain inhibitory effect on hidden ailments!"

"By the way, this medicine can also speed up the recovery process for your brother!"

"199 yuan!"

Long Lifan silently muttered to herself a few times, "This is really too expensive! Just this one reagent costs her half of a huge sum of money!"

"Tongzi, let's be frank. This is the first time I've bought something from you, and I don't know how effective it will be."

"Host, you can rest assured about this. Everything produced by our system is guaranteed to be of the highest quality!"

"I won't comment on whether it's high-quality or not, how about this, I'll buy it for 50 yuan! This is my first time buying from you, so I don't know how good the product is. Besides, for my first purchase, there should be some discount, right?" Long Lifan tentatively communicated with the system!

"50 is too little, at least 100 is necessary!" the system replied!

"Okay, 100 it is. But if the product is bad, I will never buy anything from you again, and I will give you a bad review!"

"Host, you can rest assured about that! Please confirm whether you wish to proceed with the transaction."

"Yes!"

The transaction was confirmed, and 100 yuan was deducted directly from the account balance, while the reagent was stored in the system space! Now the only problem is how to get everyone to drink it without them knowing!

"Hey, there is!"

So, Long Lifan put the reagent into the kettle, and after everyone had dinner, she poured a glass of water for everyone to drink!

Long Lifan also drank a cup, and instantly felt a warm feeling in her stomach and a sense of comfort throughout her body. Her pale face also became a little rosy!

Of course, the people who felt the most deeply were Grandpa Long and Little Brother Long. Grandpa Long had a hidden ailment because of fighting in his early years, while Little Brother Long was in poor health!

Long Lifan secretly observed the two of them and instantly felt that the 100 yuan hadn't been wasted! There was still more than half of the reagent left, and Long Lifan planned to use these last few days to have one more chance to improve it!

A few days passed in the blink of an eye. During that time, my sister-in-law brought her niece and nephew back, and we took the opportunity to invite my grandparents over for a meal! We also went to a photo studio to take a family photo!

Early morning of March 2nd!

The whole family got up early to get ready, because today was the day Long Lifan was going to the countryside!

Along the way, her parents gave her all sorts of instructions, such as being wary of thieves and not flaunting her wealth.

Finally, Dad pulled her aside and said, "Er Ya, here's 150 yuan for you!"

"Dad, isn't it supposed to be 50 a month? Why are you giving me so much? Are you secretly hiding pocket money? Aren't you afraid Mom will find out?"

"Get lost, do you think I'm that kind of person?" Long Wenhai gave her a flick on the forehead. "Your mother and I discussed it. You've just arrived in the countryside, so you'll definitely need a lot of things. It's okay to give you a little more. You'll definitely need these ration coupons when you get there!"

"Also, we've already mailed most of your luggage over; remember to pick it up when it's ready!"

"Okay, thank you, Dad!" Long Lifan said in a slightly coquettish tone! After a few days, Long Lifan had completely adapted to her new identity, and her way of addressing people had become much more natural!

"Alright, it's getting late, let's get in the car!" Long Wenhai said softly, gently patting his daughter's head with a hint of affection and reluctance.

The whole family reluctantly saw her off into the train carriage, and then, with the train whistle blowing, they said goodbye and left with great reluctance!

What surprised Long Lifan the most was that her younger brother actually gave her all his savings, making Long Lifan feel a little embarrassed. If the train hadn't been about to leave, she would have had to return it.

Taking a child's allowance? Doesn't Long Lifan have any dignity? Oh well, let's see if there's a chance to make it up to her later!

After a moment of silence, Long Lifan began to look around. This old-fashioned train was not only slow, but also very loud and had a pungent smell of gasoline!

Fortunately, the educated youth were assigned to a carriage with beds; otherwise, they wouldn't even have a place to rest! It takes about 5 days to travel from Luzhou to G province.

Long Lifan couldn't help but sigh. In later times, this distance would only take a day. If she took a plane, it would only take a few hours.

This carriage has a total of 8 berths, and right now there are only two women and one man besides her; the other berths are empty! Long Lifan randomly picked an upper berth, knowing full well how inconvenient it would be to sleep in a lower berth!

Long Lifan simply nodded to the other three people, without engaging in much interaction. Unbeknownst to her, one of the women was watching her retreating figure with deep envy in her eyes!

The woman's name is Liu Pandi, and you can tell from her name that she comes from a family that favors sons over daughters! Her mother taught her from a young age that she should be good to her younger brother so that if she was bullied after marriage, her family would stand up for her!

She did the same; from a young age, she would give any good food to her younger brother. There were four children in her family, but apart from her father, who was a factory worker, none of the others had jobs.

They usually work under their mother's guidance, collecting cardboard boxes from the community and making a living by pasting them together!

Even so, the family situation was still not optimistic, so they signed her up to go to the countryside. This way, there would be one less person to feed, and she could help support the family in the future!

But today, when she saw Long Weihua hand over his pocket money to Long Lifan, she couldn't help but think of her younger brother and her family.

She arrived at the train station alone, carrying heavy luggage. Her two younger sisters wanted to see her off, but they were both scolded by her mother. Perhaps her two younger sisters were the only ones in the family who treated her well.

Like her, her two younger sisters had virtually no status in the family. As a child, she longed for even the slightest bit of care from her parents, but sadly, she received none.

Perhaps this is how girls are born; from a young age, they are scolded by their fathers as a burden, a freeloader. Boys are the pillars of society, like her father, with jobs and salaries!

But just now, seeing Long Lifan's family, she felt a little wavering!
