February 11, 1958
Lunar New Year
Beijing, Nanluoguxiang, Siheyuan, Intermediate Courtyard.
In the quaint room, a curled young man lay on the cold wooden bed.
He was wearing a blue cotton jacket and gray cotton pants, patched at the corners, and the cuffs had been ground to iron gray.
One arm was pressed under the body, the other was hung under the bed, and the dark red marks on the arm could be seen by rolling up his sleeves.
At this time, the young man looked pale.
Just lying quietly like this, as if it was a lifeless corpse.
The cold air penetrated through the dilapidated doors and windows, adding a bit of gloom to the dull room.
The next moment, An Jing's body suddenly shuddered, as if it had been injected with life force, and her whole body began to tremble.
Then, the body became warm and the paleness on the face began to fade.
When his eyes opened, his eyes still felt a little painful. Yang Xiaotao tried his best to spread his sore body.
“Ah~~”
"Hiss~"
The pain from his body made him scream.
In just a moment, he stopped screaming and stared at his hands and looked again and again.
"This is not my hand."
"No, this is my hand, but how did it become like this?"
The young man was self-doubted, and before he could think about it, a memory poured into his mind and he lay on the bed again.
Not long after, the young man tilted his head, felt the cold wind, and his eyes were clear.
At this time, he had already figured out a little and knew what was going on.
He traveled through time, and it was still a soul-piercing man.
I suddenly became more than 10 years younger, and I have to say that the length of my life was invisibly lengthened, which is a good thing.
However, the time and space where life is located have become the time and space where love is full of love, which is barely a good thing.
After all, it is also a world that I am familiar with.
Qingman Siheyuan is a TV series he once liked very much, but he prefers it to be called "Qinman Siheyuan".
However, the timeline of this world is somewhat different from that in the TV series.
Qin Huairu is still young, Jia Dongxu is still alive, and more importantly, the two are not married yet.
Other things, Yan Jiedi from the third uncle's family was not born yet, Liu Guangqi from the second uncle's family was also at home, He Yushui was already in school, and Sha Zhu was not famous yet.
The owner of this body is also called Yang Xiaotao, who is eighteen years old this year!
Now he is a two-month-old fitter apprentice at Red Star Rolling Factory.
Yang Xiaotao in this world grew up in a single family. His mother died when she was young and his father never remarried.
He lived with his father since he was sensible, and the father and son depended on each other for their own lives.
From chaotic times to stability, we witnessed the establishment of the New China with our own eyes, and then in these passionate years, we devoted ourselves to the construction of the motherland.
However, in this era of shortage of supplies, his ability to eat and wear is entirely due to his father working in a steel rolling mill.
Yang's father is a third-level fitter at Hongxing Steel Rolling Factory. His monthly salary is 42.5 yuan. In addition, the treatment of food coupons and non-staple foods, in this world where two yuan is a big rooster, three cents a pound of cabbage, and five cents a pound of eggs, these salary is enough for the father and son to live a comfortable life, and even let Yang Xiaotao marry a wife and have children.
But there are unexpected situations in the sky, just like every time traveler will trigger the task of "parents sacrifice to the sky" when he arrives. Yang Xiaotao in this world has experienced this 'tragedy'.
Two months ago, workers in the steel rolling mill made an operation error and caught fire in the workshop. Yang's father and colleagues were seriously injured by flames in order to rescue the factory equipment, and were in danger.
In this era of backward medical treatment, how difficult is it to cure burns?
Even in later generations, it is also a difficult problem.
Yang's father didn't want to drag him down, but Yang Xiaotao, who was convinced, refused to listen to his father's persuasion, asked around for solutions, and bought various supplements to treat him with all his might.
In the end, not only did he spend all his family's savings for many years, but he also filled in the compensation from the factory and borrowed a lot of money. Yang's father also gave up in regret.
Leaving Yang Xiaotao here, alone, finally, in this cold winter, he fulfilled the time travelers of the 21 world.
"Since you come, you will be at peace."
Knowing the situation, Yang Xiaotao could only comfort himself in this way.
Then, he began to look at the room he was in.
Looking around, spider silk was still pulled on the wooden roof, swaying in the cold wind. The wooden windows that were only found in my hometown were embedded in them piece by piece.
There were also the black and white quilts on the wooden bed smelling musty, and the patched clothes were thrown aside, as well as the paintings of great men on the wall and the empty room, Yang Xiaotao's mind was confused.
Lying on the bed, the pain on his body made him unable to recall calmly, so he could only support it and move it to the eight immortals table below, looking at the large white ceramic jar with a string of small words "Excellent Workers of the Rolling Factory", then look at the red and white washbasin on the shelf in the house, pick up the thermos wrapped in iron, and pour out the water with some temperature.
Yang Xiaotao picked up the jar and poured it into his mouth. The warmth in his stomach became stronger, and then it spread throughout his body, allowing him to feel a little bit of a living person.
With his hands on the table, Yang Xiaotao closed his eyes to check his clear memories.
When it was confirmed that he traveled to the Qinman Siheyuan TV series, Yang Xiaotao suspected that "his own" death was related to the people in the courtyard.
After all, this is a beast courtyard.
Sure enough, after some memories, Yang Xiaotao confirmed his conjecture and felt helpless about his future life in the courtyard.
Facing intrigues all day long, you must be careful of hidden arrows that can be shot at any time. It will be a headache to think about it.
Before traveling through time, Yang Xiaotao was not a "fair" person, but a small working person, who went to work from 9 to 5, got off work and had a mobile phone and computer. He said that his skills were not very good, and he could make a living even if he had skills.
He dared not think about coming to this world to make "excellent contributions" to the country, and his ability may not be as good as that of the elites in this world, but at least he can survive safely.
But now, in this courtyard where animals are everywhere, the word "stability" is a luxury for him.
It is similar to those in film and television dramas. The Sihe Courtyard where he lives is an expanded three-entry courtyard.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! It was originally the mansion of a former Qing official, but after liberation, it was taken back by the state and then revised again, and it became the people's yard.
The entire yard faces north and south, with a central axis layout.
The first entrance to the courtyard is the front yard composed of a downward room and a gatehouse before the Chuanhuamen. There are three old men's family and five other families living in it. The second entrance to the courtyard is the middle yard, living in their family, the Jia family, Sha Zhu family, the first old men's family and several other families.
The third entrance to the yard is the back room behind the main house, which is the backyard, where old lady Dong Dian, Xu Damao's family, Liu Hai Zhong's family and three other households live.
Yang Xiaotao's house is in the middle courtyard. The ear room she lives in is the original study, which is large and bright. There is also an open space in front of the door, which is the former garden.
After the entire ear room was cleaned up, four rooms were divided into two, and their family and their neighbor Chen's old couple each occupied.
Next to them were the Sha Zhu brother and sister who occupied the two main rooms.
There are 22 households in the courtyard, and there are more than 100 people in men, women, young and old.
In Yang Xiaotao's opinion, it is a bit unfair to have no good people in the courtyard, but if one lined up to catch another, there would definitely be someone who missed the net.
Especially the protagonists, in his opinion, none of them is good.
The male protagonist in the film and television drama, also known as Sha Zhu, is a dog-licking dog, a brainless dog-licking dog, and a lustful dog-licking dog.
As for the heroine, not to mention Qin Huairu, a senior tea artist, is a perfect white lotus, and selfishness is fully reflected in her.
In addition, there is Yi Zhonghai, an old man who stands on the moral commanding heights and is good at moral kidnapping.
The second old man who has no ability but is addicted to officialdom is in his bangs.
The third uncle Yan Fugui, who is petty and good at making up for his wishful thinking.
There is also an old pious woman who is trolling and howling rogue. In the future, there will be ungrateful wolf thieves and a vampire family.
...
It is also a miracle that the entire compound can live in harmony until now.
As for why the original owner died, why it traveled through time became Yang Xiaotao. After sorting out the original owner's last memory, an unwilling anger rose from Yang Xiaotao's heart. He held his fingers tightly and slammed the blue veins on the wooden table.
Why did he die? He was beaten up and threw it on the bed without anyone caring about it, and was frozen to death.
Feeling the residual grief and anger of the original owner in his heart, Yang Xiaotao let out a long breath to calm himself down.
To be continued...
