Chapter 219
Lan Xi opened his eyes again, and what he saw was the dark red bricks and tiles on the roof, and then looked around, it was that kind of earthen wall.

And he was lying on the bed, the bed was about one meter wide, with a thick layer of straw under his body, and a bed sheet made of various small pieces of dark blue coarse cloth on top.

It was covered with a thin layer of quilt. Needless to say, the quilt was covered with various patches.

The environment of the room is a bit dark, but it is certain that it is daytime, because looking out through the wooden window next to the bed, you can see two rays of sunlight.

Now there is no one, let's accept the memory of the original owner first.

Then came a whole bunch of fragments.

The original owner's name is Zhang Lan, 17 years old, father Zhang Jiancheng, mother Yang Guilian, and an older brother Zhang Qing, 21 years old, who is already married and has a son, sister-in-law Li Xuemei, and a three-year-old nephew Zhang Xuyang.

This is a simple family living in Zhangjia Village. Although they lived in poverty in the 70s, the family is willing to endure hardships and is a good hand at work, so they don’t have to worry about eating and drinking. They are considered a middle-class family in the village.

Originally, Zhang Lan, who is getting older, should also find her in-law's family. At the end of last year, she met Song Wen, the youngest son of the captain's family in Songliu Village next door, through a blind date.

Free love is not popular in this era, at most, the two meet once under the arrangement of the matchmaker during the blind date, and then say a few words, if the two agree, the matter is considered settled.

At the end of last year, the two had no objection to the marriage, and both families were satisfied with each other, so the marriage was settled like this.

According to local customs, you should get engaged first, saying that you are engaged is a signal, and you will get married after half a year or a year.

Firstly, it is an opportunity for the man to prepare, and secondly, it is also for the woman to keep the girl at her natal home for a longer period of time, and at the same time teach the girl what she should pay attention to when she gets married.

In rural areas, when it is said to be engaged, it is no different from getting married, except for a meal.

The two got engaged at the end of last year in this way, and agreed to get married at the end of this year, and Zhang Lan will stay at home to get married.

But I didn't expect that in May of this year, the Song family suddenly came to withdraw the engagement, and Song Wen didn't come. The two elders of the Song family and two Song Wen's brothers came.

The Zhang family asked why, but the Song family hesitated and couldn't tell the reason, only saying that the two were not suitable, so they wanted to divorce.

But the two are not suitable, if they didn't say it earlier, now they are engaged, but they still divorced, which ruined Zhang Lan's reputation for nothing.

Moreover, there are some close relatives of the Song family in Songliu Village, who talk badly about the Zhang family, saying that Zhang Lan is lazy and hangs out with some dubious people, so he is not a good family.

I don't know how they got this kind of empty talk.

But in this way, everyone thought that there was something wrong with the daughter of the Zhang family. You must know that this kind of thing was the first case in the village.

No matter how the Zhang family explained, none of the people around believed it. They firmly believed that there was something wrong with Zhang Lan, and the Zhang family was pointed out.

The atmosphere in the family was extremely depressed. They didn't know how a good thing turned out like this, but they didn't blame the original owner. Instead, they comforted her and asked her to rest at home for a few days instead of going to work.

This is the situation today.

The little girl's wish is also very simple, one is to find out the truth about her divorced marriage, and the other is to let her parents live a better life.

The original owner got divorced out of nowhere, and the family still bears an unwarranted name. It's really unlucky.

After Lan Xi accepted the memory this time, she didn't have a splitting headache this time. Lan Xi thought it was due to the improvement of mental power, so it is still useful to improve mental power.

The development of this world is similar to that of the previous modern world. Now it is 1970, and the things that are happening are similar. Now is the age of turmoil.

Lan Xi got up, roughly estimated that it was almost noon, and it was time to cook, and now there was no one at home, and even the three-year-old nephew was taken to the field to take care of him.

In order to prevent the original owner from hearing those rumors, the family let the original owner rest at home for a few days, which shows their love for the original owner.

Lan Xi got up and left the room. This is the original owner's room. There are five rooms in the house. The main room faces south, and there are three rooms in total.

The right side is where the parents live, and the left side is the original owner’s room. Although there are three rooms, in order to save materials, only straw curtains are used to cover the middle, so the entrance and exit are all through the main room door.

There are two rooms in front of the original owner, the big one is for Zhang Qing's family, and the small one is for the kitchen, surrounded by a big wall, all of which are made of soil and straw.

There is also a simple pigsty, chicken shed, and simple toilet. In the pigsty, there is a pig lying there lazily, motionless.

Lan Xi went to the kitchen. There was only an iron pot and a cupboard, but it was locked. Lan Xi skillfully found the key from under a brick next to the iron pot.

Opening the cupboard, there were eight steamed buns made of sorghum noodles, a few eggs, dozens of catties of cornmeal and sorghum noodles, and some dried sweet potatoes.

According to the memory of the original owner, Lan Xi took out six steamed buns, some dried sweet potatoes and cornmeal, and cooked a pot of soup. As for the dishes, the family always ate pickled vegetables, or directly plucked a green onion as a dish.

Lan Xi skillfully lit the fire to cook, and when it was almost ready, sister-in-law Li Xuemei came back first with her little nephew.

Li Xuemei is of medium build, about 1.6 meters tall, with fair skin and a gentle smile on her face. Seeing Lan Xi cooking, she hurriedly walked up to Lan Xi,

"Xiaolan, go and look at Yangyang, let me come."

The little nephew next to him also grinned when he saw Lan Xi, and his mouth watered, "Auntie, auntie, give me a hug."

It's usually fine, the original owner also likes to play with his chubby little nephew, so the child is also attached to the original owner.

Lan Xi didn't move away, "Sister-in-law, the meal is almost ready, so don't do anything else, you take Yang Yang to wash your hands, and prepare to eat later."

Li Xuemei had no choice but to say, "That's fine."

There is a pressurized well in the yard, and the draft water is used to pressurize water from this well on weekdays.

After a while, everyone in the Zhang family came back, sweating profusely. It's already May, and it's a busy time, busy with topdressing wheat and weeding, and the weather is hot, so naturally very busy .

The three of Zhang Jianye walked in, washed their faces first, and saw that Lan Xi had already brought the meal to the table in the main room, and the whole family ate on the table.

His father, Zhang Jianye, is 1.8 meters tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, thick lips, dark skin, and usually taciturn.

The opposite is her mother, Yang Guilian, who is aggressive, with phoenix eyes, high cheekbones, and a long face. She has been tanned by years of hard work, and has a fierce appearance.

However, although the two have different personalities, they care about their families very much and have no patriarchal ideas. They also provide for the original owner to graduate from junior high school. This is a rare existence in the village. You must know that many boys are arrested by their families when they reach the third grade. Come earn cents.

The eldest brother, Zhang Qing, is also tall, with a full forehead, narrow faces, a thin chin, and a pair of eyes that move very flexibly.
