Back to the Sixties: Everyday Life Rescuing My Parents

Main story complete.

Mom and Dad died. They both died.

They worked themselves to death.

Before they died, their only worry was Liu Yuyu, whom they would leave behind in this world.

Liu Yuyu, keeping vigil beside her parents, began to cry, sobbing so hard she could barely breathe.

It was the depths of winter, bitterly cold. She still remembered how her parents had died from overworking in the fields. Even the doctor had shaken his head and said, "What a terrible tragedy."

Nearby, her heartless, wicked grandmother, her uncle and aunt, and the other relatives wore mocking expressions, thinking her parents had brought their deaths upon themselves.

But hadn't her parents worked themselves to death supporting those damned people?

Her parents had done most of the farm work and kept the family afloat. If those bloodsuckers hadn't drained them dry, would they have died?

Her parents were gone, leaving Liu Yuyu alone to struggle through this cruel world.

After they were gone, she never felt a trace of warmth again. It was as if all the life had been drained from her. She became numb and despairing.

Countless times, Liu Yuyu had wondered how wonderful it would be if she could go back and change her parents' fate, so they wouldn't die.

But it was only a wish.

Then one day, she opened her eyes and saw her parents, whose faces in her memories had grown so blurry they were almost unrecognizable.

When she heard the familiar name, "Niu'er,"

she cried.

And the story begins with her parents. It was the 1960s, in the middle of spring plowing...

Reader's Guide:

1. The heroine returns to the past to save her parents.

2. The story has a strong 1960s feel, with tons of creative liberties. Don't take it as historical fact. This is an alternate history, very much an alternate history. Let's just enjoy the simple life. Thanks to all the lovely readers for your company and support along the way.

Theme: People can overcome fate.
