Reborn in the 60s and adopted

Chapter 10 Listen to Hexagram 8

In the early morning, accompanied by the chirping of birds, Tang Mei opened her eyes drowsily. Looking at this unfamiliar place, she suddenly remembered that she was not in her home in the future, but had come to the 1960s.

After washing up, Tang Mei did not see Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang. She only saw corn porridge and a small dish of pickles on the kitchen table. Tang Mei finished her meal in a hurry. Today she planned to go out to find Tang Li and ask her to take her to work with her.

"Tang Mei, are you home?" Tang Li's crisp voice came.

"I'm here, sister. I was just about to look for you." Tang Mei hurried to the door.

"Aunt San came to my house early in the morning and asked me to play with you after daybreak. I came only after I finished my housework."

"Third Aunt is so nice, and thank you for coming to accompany me"

"You're welcome, Meimei," Tang Li said, and then asked in a serious tone, "Meimei, are Third Uncle and Third Auntie treating you well?"

"Yes, really, Third Aunt and Third Uncle are very kind to me, and they even gave me meat to eat."

"Really? That's great. I feel like you're different now."

Tang Mei thought to herself that she wouldn't reveal her true identity.

"Sister, what's different about me?" Tang Mei lowered her head and took Tang Li's hand.

"It's only been two days since we last met, but I already feel like you've become more lively. This is good. Before, Second Aunt treated you like that, and I saw you becoming less and less talkative. Now you're like this, and that's great."

"I also think it's good that I'm like this, I have a sister and uncle and aunt who love me. Haha." Tang Mei laughed as she said this. "Sister, please go to work with me today. I also want to do something for uncle and aunt."

"Okay, let's go then."

Tang Li took Tang Mei to look for Aunt Tang San. The corn in the cornfield was only a few dozen centimeters tall, and Aunt Tang San and her friends were pulling out the weeds in the gaps.

"Liu Lin, look, is that your new daughter?" The freckled-faced aunt next to Aunt Tang San spoke so loudly that Tang Mei could hear it from a distance.

"Hey, why does what you said sound unpleasant?" said another younger woman nearby.

"I'm telling the truth. Wang Shuzhen said that she would give Tang Mei to Tang Lao San."

"Meimei, why are you here?" Aunt Tang San deliberately spoke loudly and interrupted what Aunt Freckles was about to say.

"Aunt San, my sister and I are here to help you." Tang Mei squatted down and prepared to start pulling grass.

"Okay, don't get too tired." Although Aunt Tang San didn't agree with the two sisters helping her pull weeds, she didn't want to let the little girls down when they just came to her house with such good intentions.

"Oh," Tang Mei agreed crisply.

"The one from the third brother, let me tell you, I heard recently that a group of new educated youth are coming to our village." Aunt Freckles covered her mouth for fear that others would hear her. In fact, even people chatting nearby could hear her loud voice.

"Who told you that?" asked the young woman.

"Who else? The village chief's wife!"

"This is the first time that our village has educated youth. Last year, educated youth from the city went to the neighboring village. They said that all the city boys are very handsome and the girls are very beautiful."

"Hey, of course! This is a feast for the eyes. I have never seen anyone from a big city in my life." He attracted a fat aunt to join the conversation.

Tang Mei and Tang Li just listened silently. Tang Mei knew that it was a trend of the times for educated youth to go to the countryside to support rural construction. She had never heard of it before, but she didn't expect that their village would soon have it. However, it should not have much to do with her.
