Chapter 1: 1.1

“Huh!” Ye Mi sat up suddenly.

    Her face was pale and sweaty, as she looked at the strange yet familiar surroundings in shock.
    The dry and cracked mud walls, the rows of bunks, piles of sundries everywhere, and the torn newspapers pasted on the windows, blown by the cold wind.
    Ye Mi lived in this house specially dedicated to educated youths for five years, and finally died of illness here, so she was so familiar with it that she could hardly forget it.
    However, the various things crowded and piled up inside are a bit strange, unlike the sparse and spaciousness of the future.
   This small room originally accommodated eight people, only she and two other female educated youths were left in the end, and the rest were brought back to the city because of their family connections, or they couldn’t make it through, so they simply found a local to marry. Moved out to live with their husbands.
    So what’s going on here?
    Ye Mi was stunned, as the half-closed wooden door was pushed open by a back.
    A round-faced girl with braided hair and a gray homespun padded jacket came in cautiously with a bowl of steaming Chinese medicine in her hand.
    Her name is Gao Yuan, and she is one of the educated youths who came to the countryside and lived with Ye Mi in the same room.

    As soon as she turned around, Gao Yuan looked at Ye Mi with confused almond eyes, and immediately raised her signature loud voice: “Finally awake,  is your body still feeling uncomfortable? It just so happens that the medicine is ready, so hurry up and drink it while it’s hot. “
    Ye Mi was still not clear-headed, so she thanked her subconsciously, took the bowl in Gao Yuan’s hand, lowered her head, and drank this bowl of frighteningly bitter medicine in one breath.
    As soon as she finished drinking, before the bowl was put down, a small piece of brown sugar was stuffed into her mouth
    It was sweet, but it was a delicacy that she hadn’t tasted for many years, and it immediately dispelled the bitterness brought by the medicine.
    Seeing Ye Mi’s eyes widened like a cat, Gao Yuan couldn’t help reaching out and patting her on her fluffy little head.
    “Why do you look so silly? Could it be that having a fever made you stupid?”
    Fever!
    Upon hearing these two words, Ye Mi couldn’t help but tremble all over, with an uncontrollable fear.
    After all, she had a fever and burned to death in her previous life, in this very room.

    The feeling that she could only lie flat on the bed waiting to die was so hopeless that she never wanted to try it again in this life.
    Thinking of the death in her previous life, Ye Mi suddenly remembered that someone seemed to have said a lot of things in front of her hospital bed before she died.

    The person said that she was just a sinister and vicious little cannon fodder who framed the heroine to send her to the countryside, and it was a pity that she died of illness in this poor land before waiting for the opportunity to return to the city in a few months, never to return  home.
    “Ye Mi, you are not really stupid, are you?”
    Gao Yuan’s loud voice pulled back Ye Mi’s wandering thoughts, she immediately came back to herself, and forced a smile: “No, I just woke up, my brain is like mush, Still very confused.”
    “Then go back to sleep quickly and have a good rest.”
    Gao Yuan supported Ye Mi’s shoulders, pressed her back into the quilt forcefully, and brought her own quilt from the next door, and folded it together. On Ye Mi’s body, so that she can stay warm , it is best to sweat to expel the root of the disease.
    “That brown sugar…” A small hand stretched out from under the quilt, and grabbed Gao Yuan’s clothes, “I will find a way to return it to you.”
    Gao Yuan, like her, did not have family subsidies. She can’t do much farm work, and the work points she earns every day are enough to support only herself. Brown sugar is a precious thing, and she can’t take advantage of others for nothing.

    “This brown sugar is not mine.” Gao Yuan winked at Ye Mi: “It’s not that you don’t know, where can I come up with such a good thing?”
    “Whose is it?” Ye Mi asked blankly.
    Besides Gao Yuan, who is naturally warm-hearted, who else will treat her well?
    “Jing Ziheng entrusted me to give it to you.”
    Jing Ziheng… Hearing this familiar name after so many years, Ye Mi couldn’t help being in a daze.
    She thought, she was now certain what time she had gone back to.
    It should be 1975 now. Two years before she died, it was also the third year since she came to the countryside. She is only eighteen years old this year.
    During this year, something happened that left a deep impression on Ye Mi.
    She fell into the lake in the winter of that year and nearly drowned, but was rescued in time by Jing Ziheng who was passing by.

    Afterwards, I developed a high fever and had to lie down for nearly a week before recovering.
    In the end, after recovering from illness, she went out to find that her reputation was bad. Everyone was saying that she deliberately jumped into the water in order to seduce Jing Ziheng, in order to blackmail him and force him to marry her.
    It was also said that when she was rescued, her clothes fell apart, and the two were close to each other, mouth to mouth, and her innocence was gone.
    If it wasn’t for Ye Mi being one of the persons involved, she would have almost believed the nonsense.
    Bad reputation, if Ye Mi can’t marry Jing Ziheng, then her life will be difficult in the future.
