Reborn in the 60s and adopted

The next day, as the sun was setting, the school bell rang slowly. Tang Mei followed Wang Ran like a little tail, who was worried about letting her go home alone. The two of them walked together to the tall locust tree in front of the brigade office in the village.

"Grandma Wang, Grandma Li, Grandpa Qiu, Grandpa Li, you are all here!" As soon as Tang Mei saw the four old people sitting under the tree, she smiled and greeted them one by one.

"Oh my, this little girl from the Tang family is so sweet! Come, come and sit for a while." Grandma Li enthusiastically lifted the small stool behind her and placed it in front of Tang Mei.

"Thank you, Grandma Li!" Tang Mei thanked her obediently and then sat down steadily.

On the other side, Wang Ran also greeted the elderly politely, then walked straight to the bench next to Grandma Wang, who seemed to be the core figure of the group of elderly people, and sat down. He took Grandma Wang's arm affectionately and said, "Grandma, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are still so strong!"

"Oh, you sweet-talking girl, it's been a long time since I saw you come here to chat with everyone!" Grandma Wang looked at Wang Ran with a smile on her face, her eyes full of love and joy.

Wang Ran smiled brightly upon hearing this and replied, "Yes, I've been busy at school lately and I really can't spare the time to come. But now everything is arranged, of course I have to come back to see you!"

Grandma Wang nodded to show her understanding, and then said earnestly: "You are now the people's teacher in our village. You must teach these children carefully. Only if they learn more knowledge and recognize more words can they have a better future."

Hearing what Grandma Wang said, Wang Ran could not help but feel touched. She felt that although this old lady was old, she was very open-minded and far-sighted. So, she stepped forward, held Grandma Wang's hand tightly, and solemnly promised: "Don't worry, Grandma, I will do my best to teach every child well! I hope that through my teaching, all the children in this period can successfully enter the junior high school in the town."

After hearing this, Grandma Wang's smile became even brighter, and she said excitedly: "That's great! We'll just have to wait and see what Teacher Wang can do!" After saying that, she couldn't help but pat Wang Ran on the shoulder, seeming to be full of trust and expectations for this young female teacher.

At this moment, Wang Ran also felt the support and encouragement from Grandma Wang and the villagers. This friendship made her feel warm and strengthened her determination to do a good job in education. In the days to come, she will go all out and live up to everyone's expectations.

"Okay, Grandma Wang, you haven't been to the village recently. Is there anything good to talk about in the village?" Wang Ran blinked his big, bright eyes and looked at Grandma Wang expectantly.

"Well... I haven't heard anything new recently. Only us old ladies have started to grow mushrooms. Is this good news?" Grandma Wang looked at Wang Ran and Tang Mei with loving eyes, and secretly sighed in her heart that these good things were brought by this group of educated and knowledgeable children!

"How can that not be good news? Of course it is!" Tang Mei nodded excitedly.

"Haha, look at our girl Tang nodding her head, she's like a chick pecking at rice." Grandma Wang couldn't help laughing out loud, and turned to say to Grandma Li next to her.

Old Mrs. Li was also very happy to hear this. She liked Tang Mei very much and kept praising her for being well-behaved and sensible.

"Hey, that, Sister Wang, you probably don't know yet. This morning, the villagers picked up our village Party Secretary Mao on the road. He was covered with wounds. Oh, it was so miserable..." As Old Lady Li spoke, she made a "squeaky" sound.

After Wang Ran and Tang Mei exchanged glances, Wang Ran leaned forward and asked curiously, "Is it really that serious? Has anyone mentioned who did this?"

Old Lady Li replied, "According to old man Zhang from the village, Secretary Mao will probably need to stay in bed for several months before he can recover. But the strange thing is that even he himself doesn't know who did it."

Hearing this, Wang Ran couldn't help but sigh: "That's really tragic." However, as soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing out loud.

Seeing this, old man Qiu scolded with some displeasure: "You naughty little girl, don't let others see you like this! That family is not a good family." Old man Qiu still remembers what happened during the Landlord Fight. The hooligans in the village even picked up huge stones and threw them at the family, and Mao Yuanqing went even further and beat the young master of the landlord with his own hands, leaving him with blood all over his face.

Wang Ran realized his mistake and quickly bowed his head to admit it: "Well, thank you Grandpa Qiu for reminding me, I know I was wrong, and I will never do this again."

"It's good that you know you were wrong. You must keep it in mind and try to stay away from their family. They are not good people." Old Man Qiu was worried and warned her solemnly again.

"Okay, we'll all remember it." Tang Mei held Wang Ran's hand tightly and nodded, expressing her agreement.

"Grandpas and grandmas, it's getting late. We have to go home for dinner. We'll come over and chat with you when we're free."

"Okay, then you guys should go back quickly. It's time for us old guys to go home and cook dinner." Grandma Wang said with a smile.

Afterwards, Wang Ran and Tang Mei returned to the Tang family together.

At this moment, Pei Yanyan was chatting with Niu Nan, who had not been seen for many days. Seeing this, Tang Mei and the others had no intention of joining in the fun.

"My daughter, you're finally back." Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang were still feeling a little uncomfortable after not seeing their daughter for the entire day.

"Yes, Dad, why did you come back so early today?" Tang Mei asked curiously.

"Your dad didn't go out at all today. He slept at home for the whole morning! I really don't understand what he did last night." Aunt Tang looked at Uncle Tang with a little complaint.

"I was at home last night..." Uncle Tang explained innocently.

Tang Mei saw Uncle Tang San lowering his head guiltily, so she asked.

"Dad, I heard from Grandma Li today that the village Party Secretary Mao was beaten and couldn't get out of bed for several months." Tang Mei kept watching her father's expression.

"Um, um, is that so?" Uncle Tang looked around guiltily.

Tang Mei thought to herself: No wonder it's like this. She always thought it was strange that at her young age and with such weak strength, how could she beat someone so hard that he couldn't get out of bed for several months? At this moment, she finally realized that it was her father who did this!

"Dad, can you come here for a moment?" Tang Mei called out to Uncle Tang, who seemed a little guilty.

"Hey, what else are you and your daughter hiding from me?" Aunt Tang San felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

Uncle Tang looked at his wife's suspicious expression and became more and more afraid to tell her everything he had done.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. I was just chatting with my daughter about family matters. I'll tell you in detail when I get back." Uncle Tang hastily consoled.

"Okay, go and chat then."

So the two of them came to the toilet.

"Dad, did you do this?" Tang Mei asked straight to the point without beating around the bush.

"Yes, when Wang Zhiqing came to me yesterday afternoon to ask for sacks, I was wondering: He suddenly asked for sacks now, it must be for no good reason! Sure enough, when I went to look for you after dinner, I found that there was no one in your educated youth institute. Wang Zhiqing even tried to lie to me and said that he didn't know you were there to study and exercise, but I wouldn't be fooled! So I followed the Mao family all the way to find you two, and finally found you two.

When I saw you guys were about to put a sack on someone, I thought, this is not a joke! But I was afraid that making a noise would scare you, so I had to quietly follow behind. Later, when I saw you guys knocked that guy unconscious, I thought I couldn't let him get away with it, so I went up and hit him a few more times. "Uncle Tang said honestly.

Hearing this, Tang Mei was moved to tears: "Thank you, Dad! It turns out that you have been protecting me silently." She held her father's hand tightly, her heart full of gratitude. And Uncle Tang patted his daughter's shoulder gently.

Comfort her and say:

"Silly child, what are you thanking me for? You are my daughter, so of course I have to protect you! Don't take risks like this again in the future. Remember to tell me when you get home if anything happens." After saying that, the father and daughter smiled at each other.

The affection between them grew deeper and deeper.
