After getting through that turbulent period, when the college entrance examination is resumed, she will be in her early thirties. If she wants to study, she can go to a university for fun. If she can't study well, she can just wait for the reform and opening up, and take advantage of the opportunity to do some business and become a first-generation rich.

When she wants a man, she can find a gigolo, no, a bunch of gigolos, whatever kind she likes, even if she likes a celebrity, it is not impossible with her wealth!

In short, she is determined to rely on herself in this life, and will no longer pin her hopes on men!

From now on, she is Zhang Yiyi of Beijia Village!

After making a grand plan, Zhang Yiyi, who was leaning on the computer chair, heard the sound of a rooster. While she was curious about whether she could hear the outside world in the space, she also dragged her thoughts back to her original home.

According to her understanding, the first seven days of the original body's parents' death have already passed. There is not much attention paid to it in this village. She guessed that it was related to the famine year and no one had the heart to do it.

The original body is sixteen years old this year. After the new year, she will be seventeen. She has just graduated from junior high school. Seeing the pale and thin face in the mirror, Zhang Yiyi couldn't help but smack her lips. This era is really hard. A family like the original body can be so hungry.

But fortunately, the little girl has a good foundation and is not short in height. It is estimated to be 1.65 meters. Once she takes good care of herself and does more facial masks to protect her skin, she will be a little beauty in no time, just like her previous life.

Thinking about the relatives on both sides of my parents, there should only be my eldest aunt Zhang Dani who married to the town, my uncle Zhang Changgen from the same village, and my youngest aunt Zhang Erni who married to the neighboring Nanjia Village.

In my impression, my eldest aunt Zhang Dani is honest and loyal, and treats me well, but because of the many things in her husband's family, she doesn't keep in touch with this place often, and only visits relatives during the New Year and festivals.

As for that uncle and aunt, they are the kind of people who have grown up crooked, greedy and selfish, and can't stand others being better than them. They just want to take advantage of others all day long. When my parents were alive, I didn't interact with them much.

The funeral at home has just been completed, and I have seen all the relatives who should have passed away. The New Year is coming soon, so she shouldn't have to go out again and can stay at home quietly.

After Zhang Yiyi had rested for a while, she got up and started to sort out the belongings left by her parents. It was not that she was greedy, but there was no content about this part in her memory.

After searching for a long time, she found 200 yuan and some bills in her parents' house. It seemed that it was all the savings of this family.

As for the remaining food at home, there were only two bags in the cellar, one was half a bag of cornmeal, the other was sweet potatoes, and there were some potatoes, cabbage and radishes piled on the ground.

Zhang Yiyi sighed. Fortunately, she had a storage base, otherwise these things would definitely not be enough for her to eat until the summer harvest next year.

She took a ladle and scooped up a ladle full of cornmeal, and walked out of the cellar. Aunt Cao next door would bring her food later, so she took the cornmeal as a reward, and also a chance to tell her that she was well again, and she could cook for herself in the future.

As she thought, Aunt Cao came in as soon as she finished cleaning up and sat down.

"Big girl, why did you get up? How are you?" Aunt Cao asked, holding a bowl.

"Auntie, sit down, I'm fine, look, I'm fine." Zhang Yiyi greeted her warmly.

"Well, you look much better, that's good, this bowl of sweet potato porridge is just out of the pot, you should eat it quickly." Aunt Cao pushed the bowl to Zhang Yiyi.

Although Zhang Yiyi was not hungry, she did not refuse. After all, it was a kind gesture. She asked the aunt to sit there, and she went to the kitchen to get a big bowl, poured the porridge into it, and washed Aunt Cao's bowl and took it out, along with the scoop of cornmeal.

"Aunt, thank you for bringing me food. This cornmeal is a little gift from me. You can take it back." Then she handed the things in her hand over.

Aunt Cao was shocked. She only brought two bowls of porridge, which didn't require much food at all. How could it be worth accepting such a big scoop of cornmeal from others?

"Big girl, we are not strangers. When your parents were alive, they also took care of my grandson. Why do you need this? Besides, you are the only one left in your family now. You have to save some food!"

Zhang Yiyi didn't lack food at all, but she couldn't say it. She knew that others were doing it for her own good. She couldn't give out other things, so this little coarse cornmeal was not a big deal. She insisted on giving the food away.

"Auntie, just keep it. You have been taking care of my home these days while I was in a coma. You also sent me food. Just take it as my thank you. Besides, I will still rely on you to take care of me in the future. If you don't take it, do you want to take care of me?"

Auntie Cao was an honest person. After hearing this, she stopped refusing. At worst, if Big Girl didn't have food to eat in the future, she would come to help her.

After the two chatted for a few more sentences, Aunt Cao went home with a smile.

Zhang Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief. From now on, she would live her own life. She decided to stay at home until the beginning of spring and not go out during this period.

She kept her word. Anyway, no one came to her house. Except for Aunt Cao next door who came to talk occasionally, Zhang Yiyi really stayed at home (eating and drinking well) until the beginning of spring!

In the spring of 1962, the weather gradually became warmer, and Zhang Yiyi finally couldn't hold it anymore. After these two months, she should not be noticed by others when she went out.

Finding a good day, she went out to the mountains with a backpack on her back. The village has recently started spring ploughing. Her parents have jobs and never go to the fields to earn work points. She has been in school before and has never been to the fields.

These days, under the advice of Aunt Cao, she thinks she should find some work to do. If she is too tired to do it, it is okay to ask the village chief to arrange some easy work for her. In this way, no one will talk about her. After all, it is weird to think that she has enough food and drink without working.

She plans to go to the mountains to pick up some firewood. She has almost burned all the firewood at home last year. Although she has a hot water bottle and other things, she can't not make a fire.

Coming to Xiaobei Mountain not far from the village entrance with the memory of her original body, Zhang Yiyi walked up excitedly. She should leave the wild vegetables to those who need them more. After holding back for so long, she would just take a walk and pick up some firewood when she came back.

There were not many people on the mountain at this time. She had an electric baton and a long knife in her pocket, so she didn't feel scared. She looked around and soon climbed more than half of the way up.

As she walked, Zhang Yiyi felt something was wrong behind her, as if someone was following her. Thinking of what happened in high school, she immediately became alert, her heart almost jumped to her throat, and she was in a state of alert, with her hands on her side, ready to take things out of her pocket at any time, and her steps became faster and faster.

Suddenly, she panicked and stepped on a stone. Her left foot twisted to the side and her whole body fell to the left. She thought she would be bruised or even rolled down the hillside, but she didn't expect a pair of big, broad hands to hold her in their arms...
