[1960s widowed mother + transmigration between two worlds + drought relief]
In 1960, a severe drought struck.
On the day a matchmaker came to call, Chen Guixiang, a 41-year-old village widow, found an egg in the stove and unexpectedly traveled to 2026.
A palm-sized lamb hatched from the egg and spoke: “Mortal, I am hungry.”
Chen Guixiang thought she’d acquired a demanding little ancestor. She never imagined she’d find supermarkets piled high with white flour and polished rice, or that extras could earn 120 yuan for a day’s work, with lunch included.
She crouched by the roadside, staring at the greasy braised pork rice box in her hands, and cried.
She wanted to take it all back to feed her daughter and the people in her village.
But how many people could she save on her own?
Then one day, she stood outside the police station in 2026 for two hours.
Rain poured down, yet not a drop touched her.
An official arrived, dressed in military uniform, and asked her respectfully:
“Auntie, would you be willing to work with the state?”
In the 1960s, the county magistrate stood before a black-market stall and asked the masked woman:
“The county will buy all your grain. How much?”
The woman didn’t look up. “One mao per jin. No price increases. But I have a condition.”
The magistrate hesitated. “What condition?”
“Have the county pay top prices for the villagers’ goods. Once the people have money, they can buy grain from me.”
The magistrate was silent for a long time. “You’re backing me into a corner.”
At last, the woman raised her head, revealing only her eyes. “I’m not trying to corner you. I’m trying to save people.”
Later, everyone in the county learned that the woman running the black market was a widow.
Later still, the whole country learned that the state stood behind that widow.
This is the correct way to start traveling through the 1960s and 1970s, unlike some time-traveling novels in which the protagonist is selfish and is completely a refined egoist who only cares about getting rich for himself without caring about others.
It's very well written, super, super good. The people who experienced the famine in that era saw hope. It's no longer just the protagonist and his family who are living well 🥺 🥺 🥺 🥺 but countless people have hope of life. I look forward to the author's next plot 😘 😘 😘 😘
This novel made me aware of another possibility of drought at that time. The new era has no intention of helping us in the past. I feel that only our country can do it. We just don't want us to make the same mistakes as before, so we try our best to help. It's great! At the end, we come to the future, which is a great finishing touch. Nowadays, it is difficult for authors to write stories that change the times, but we can also know that we in the past will definitely not repeat the bad things we did before. That would be great. I really hope that there will be such a smooth journey for us.
It is one of the classic time-travel works. Everything is based on the social environment and socio-economic capabilities of the year to advance the story. There is no other time-travel novel that is full of nonsense and nonsense.
This book is really good! I rarely read books on women's videos. I saw it on a tweet and clicked in to take a look, and then I couldn't stop 😄 Although some settings are not so rigorous, most of the data is normal and does not affect the reading experience.
The new book has a good idea, but the words and sentences are too blunt and should not be too sentimental. Just talk about it normally, come on, I'm very optimistic about it, don't be gg
It's very warm. It seems that the people of that era have hope.
It looks good. When can we link it up? Do the leaders on both sides know about it? Help the leaders of the older generation.
The writing is very good. The heroine is a person who lived in the Great Famine of 603. Because she was poor and hungry, she tried her best to help the people and the country who were struggling at that time. Jinbao did not belong to the system and was the embodiment of human will. She worked with the people to help each other and everyone got what they needed. After reading this, I just want to say thank you to the efforts and dedication of the ancestors and heroes in the past, so that we can be safe, happy and healthy now! Pay tribute to the ancestors and heroes🫡
It feels weird to see Mr. Shen's plot... Actually, everyone knows what's going on.
