He felt as if a trace of warmth flowed from the jade pendant to his limbs, bones, and brain, which made him feel refreshed.

In the dark room, he could actually see the furniture hanging on the wall relatively clearly.

You must know that he has slight myopia. After he went to college, he had to wear glasses because of overuse of his eyes. But now his eyesight has become so good again, which is really strange.

Peng Wanhua was agitated, opened his eyes suddenly, and rubbed them vigorously. He thought there was something wrong with his eyes.

Suddenly it was pitch dark again.

After trying it several times, Peng Wanhua confirmed that as long as he held the jade pendant, there seemed to be a faint warmth nourishing his limbs, eyes and brain, improving his body, vision and spirit.

This feeling is subtle.

"No wonder the old saying goes that jade can nourish people. It seems that the ancestral Pisces jade pendant is indeed a magical thing."

Peng Wanhua felt that his mind became clearer at this moment.

He stood up. The bamboo bed made a squeaking sound, which was particularly harsh at night. His parents were still whispering in the room opposite.

He wanted to talk to his parents about how to solve the tuition problem for his two sisters.

Open the door curtain and enter the main room.

Further forward is the parents' room.

The couple were muttering in a low voice when their father said, "Don't worry about the tuition fees of the two girls. I'll go to the factory director to advance the wages. It should be fine."

"No, your factory has trouble paying wages. How can I give you an advance? Besides, you have to look at people's faces when you ask for help. I don't wear this jade bracelet very often anyway. It's just right to sell it to pay for my daughter's school fees." It's my mother. Luo Meili's voice.

This jade bracelet was brought with her when she got married. It was a waxy old jadeite with floating flowers. It was also a valuable item in the past.

She usually doesn't want to take it with her when doing farm work, for fear of breaking it, so she only takes it with her to play with when she has free time.

Now it is in very good condition and can be sold for a good price in big cities.

"No! This is the dowry your mother left for you. Who will I become if you sell it!"

Father Peng firmly disagreed. If his father-in-law found out about this, wouldn't it be a shame for the family to rely on his wife to sell dowry items?

"If it really doesn't work, I'll go find the old man. He still has some coffin books. He wanted to give them to me before but he didn't ask for them. Now I'm so nervous that I can only bring them over temporarily to support one."

Father Peng said somewhat sadly.

Peng Wanhua stood at the door, listening to the conversation between the old couple, and became more determined to improve his family's financial situation as soon as possible.

He asked at the door: "Mom, Dad, are you asleep?"

"No, what's the matter with you?" Luo Meili asked.

Peng Wanhua opened the door curtain and walked in.

"I want to say that I will go to school tomorrow. Although the eldest sister and the second sister still have their student status, they probably have to go to the school to complete the admission procedures."

Peng Wanhua remembered that many people now study in school for a while, and then go home to do farm work. Some will come back, and some will not.

Therefore, the school will not cancel students’ enrollment status easily.

Even if the eldest sister and the second sister want to continue studying even if their student status is not cancelled, they still have to pay tuition fees.

"You don't need to worry about this matter. I will take them there at the latest on Tuesday." The old father Peng Liyang said in an unquestionable tone.

"Oh." Peng Wanhua responded, feeling grateful to his parents. After chatting for a while, he returned to his room.

Lying on the bed, touching the ancestral jade pendant, feeling the magical effect of the jade pendant, suddenly some long-standing and dusty memories were released as if the seal had been opened.

"Has my memory improved?" Peng Wanhua couldn't help being slightly shocked as he stroked the jade pendant.

There is something special about this jade pendant.

Suddenly he remembered something again.

At present, the domestic economy has just started and it can be said that it is in a state of poverty.

After all, in an era when even eating more meat is a luxury, what's the point of economics?

At present, the areas with better development in East Asia are the Four Asian Tigers, except for Xiaoli.

Especially Hong Kong and Taiwan.

He remembered that last year, the per capita GDP of the Xiangjiang region was 20 times that of the mainland. In a few years, Xiangjiang will account for a quarter of the mainland's GDP.

Hong Kong businessmen have become synonymous with wealth.

In last year's popular movie, the heroine who played the role of fighting ghosts was paid 200 million, while Cheng Long's salary reached 500 million after playing the role of Junior Brother.

Starting in 1960, after 20 years of rapid development, Hong Kong has now become the most developed region in Asia and one of the world's three major financial centers along with New York and London.

If you really want to make some windfall, you have to go to these economically developed areas to have a chance.

After thinking wildly, Peng Wanhua fell into a deep sleep.

……

It was pitch black in the snow mountain village at four o'clock in the morning.

Not even the rooster crows.

Peng Wanhua and others have already gotten up. He and his fourth and fifth sons are going to school, and his father is going to the commune winery.

The mountain road is difficult to walk, so you have to start early.

The fourth and fifth children were in primary school in the next village. Peng Wanhua had to go to the commune first and then take a bus to the county. They happened to be together.

Mom Luo Meili got up earlier and made breakfast for them.

Taking advantage of the kerosene light on the table, Peng Wanhua put a bottle of pickles into his bag. This bottle of pickles was enough for him to eat at school for two or three days.

It is said that the bottle is not actually a jar, but an earthen jar.

The family was poor these days, and they had no plastic bottles and only two solid glass cans, which he gave to his fourth and fifth sons.

The fourth and fifth sons also got up. Compared to Peng Wanhua, who was full of energy, they were yawning and drowsy.

"Hurry up, take your time, your brother is going to the county, can he still wait for you two?" Luo Meili urged when she saw that the fourth and fifth children looked like they were still awake.

The fourth and fifth boys put down their bags without saying a word, filled a bowl of porridge and squatted on the doorstep to eat it.

Peng Wanhua was eating gruel with pickled radish, and after a while he finished two bowls of it before he was half full.

Half the size, eat the poor old man.

At his age, he always feels like he doesn’t have enough to eat.

I washed my face in a hurry, and saw the familiar face in the mirror with sharp edges and corners, coupled with the deep and resolute eyes, I couldn't call him a handsome guy.

A beard has grown on his chin and side of his face. Overall, he looks somewhat similar to Captain America when he had a beard in Marvel.

Although he looks a bit old, he has an uncle-like air.

In his previous life, he was able to charm young little sisters, and this uncle's temperament was indispensable.

The only pity is that he has two pimples on his right face, which somewhat ruins his image.

"It means I'm still young."

Peng Wanhua looked at the two pimples and muttered to comfort himself.

My father, Peng Liyang, was smoking a dry cigarette at the corner of the courtyard wall while pouring water.

"Why don't you go to Maosi? It smells bad!" Mom Luo Meili couldn't stand it and yelled.

Peng Liyang chuckled and didn't answer. He tied the cloth rope around his waist and saw that the fourth and fifth children had packed up. He shouted "Let's go~" and went out first.

"Stop for a moment and bring living expenses for the child." The mother took out a cloth bag from her arms and opened several layers to reveal the scattered coins inside.

Peng Wanhua's living expenses are one yuan a week, and he also has [-] cents for transportation.

The fourth and fifth brothers didn't even have a dime, and they were looking at the dime in the eldest brother's hand with envy.

Peng Wanhua touched the back of his head, took a few cents and put them into his pocket, saying, "Thank you, Mom."

Luo Meili was stunned, then smiled and patted his forehead, "Silly boy."

Peng Wanhua was about to go out with his fourth and fifth sons.

Luo Meili stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, why does a little kid have a beard? It looks old. I'll shave it for you."

She rushed into the room and took down a cutting sickle hanging from the wall.

Peng Wanhua took a look and saw that the shining sickle was shining with cold light. If he accidentally swiped it with his hand, his appearance would be disfigured.

Besides, he thought his beard was so handsome that he didn't want to cut it off.

He quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, no, I'll go to school to do it myself."

"It's okay, I'm very handy. I shaved your father's beard!" Luo Meili put her hands on her hips, very dissatisfied with her son's distrust.

Seeing that it didn't make sense, Peng Wanhua ran away.

The fourth and fifth boys chased after me: "Cauldron, wait for me."
