The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

Chao Yao woke up in the early morning of the next day. Chao Wenjun and Lan Lan stayed by her side with dark circles under their eyes. The moment she woke up, Lan Lan's nose felt sore and tears fell like beads from a broken string.

"You're awake, that's good! Yaoyao, are you hungry? I'll go make you something to eat."

"I'm not hungry, Mom. I'm sorry for making you worry."

Lan Lan wiped her tears and said, "Child, you really scared us to death. You are our only daughter. If anything happens to you, how will your mother live?"

Chao Wenjun took Chao Yao's little hand and gently helped her up.

"Yaoyao, tell Daddy, did you do that with the red armband? I wanted to take you to the hospital yesterday, but I saw a bunch of hats and flying hair in the stairwell. No one else could do such a weird thing."

"Daddy...Yaoyao is just too scared..."

Chao Yao's eyes were timid and he looked as if he was really scared.

Lan Lan held Chao Yao in her arms and coaxed him for a long time, even waking up Chao Jianguo who was sleeping in the small bed next to her.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, and the moment he saw Chao Yao, his eyes immediately brightened.

"My sister is awake!"

He threw back the covers and jumped over.

After touching Chao Yao's forehead and finding that he didn't have a fever, Chao Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief.

"Luckily my sister is fine. You really scared me to death yesterday!"

She stuck out her tongue mischievously at Yao. She was impulsive, but she did not regret it.

Yang Aiqun’s wife is pretty and usually gentle. She likes this woman very much.

Putting aside personal feelings, the Yang family itself did nothing wrong.

She cannot change the social environment, nor can she change history, and can only do these insignificant things.

In special times, there is no right or wrong. She now lives in this era and just needs to go with the flow as long as she can protect herself.

"Yaoyao, don't do things like this in the future. After today, there will definitely be people coming to our notification building to conduct a major investigation, and there may be even worse consequences by then."

When Chao Yao heard Chao Wenjun say this, he began to feel scared.

She has a family, and this incident may have serious consequences, and the first to bear the brunt may be the Yang family. After further investigation, what should she do if her family is implicated?

Chao Wenjun scratched Chao Yao's nose with his index finger and said with a smile:

"Do you know you're afraid now?"

Chao Yao shrank his neck and said, "Yeah."

"Dad will find a way to handle this matter for you. Don't go out in the near future. At most, you can play with the kid from the Gu family next door."

"Okay, Dad."

"If you're really bored, just take the math problems I gave you and the composition your mother gave you and do it. Studying is the most important thing, you must never give it up."

"Ah."

Chao Wenjun went out. He had to go to the police station to change his name today.

Not only that, but we also have to solve the troubles that may arise later because of what Chao Yao has done.

This matter cannot be handled in a high-profile manner. After all, as long as I take action, even a fool can guess that it must be related to my family.

Using public opinion to fight public opinion, Chao Wenjun, no, now it is Chao Wujun, he mixed true and false news and finally removed everyone's doubts about the tube building.

In this era, although we have been promoting science and not superstition, theology has been engraved in our bones for so long, how can it be easily eliminated in just a few years?

Those people wearing red armbands were still afraid of their tube-shaped building, and no one from the Yang family came to arrest them. After all, Yang Aiqun had changed his name to "Yang Aiguo" and hung a sign on his chest.

Everything was handled, and Chao Yao and the others didn't ask how it was done. Chao Wujun was capable, otherwise he wouldn't have survived until now as an orphan.

Recently, the textile factory where Chao Wujun works has produced some defective cloth, all of which are military green.

He bought some and planned to ask Lan Lan to make clothes for the two children.

The clothes Chaoyao and Chao Jianguo usually wear are patched with large and small patches. They are new for three years, old for three years, and patched for another three years.

It’s not that the family can’t afford to buy these cloths, but everyone on the street wears them, so there’s no need to be too extravagant.

Chao Jianguo has wanted to wear a new green military uniform for a long time. The fourteen-year-old boy is slowly growing taller and taller, and now he is almost 1.7 meters tall.

His old clothes no longer fit him, so he had to be made new clothes.

Sure enough, he jumped up with excitement as soon as he saw the cloths.

"Dad, you want mom to make me a new set of clothes, right? Then make me a crossbody bag, and it must have the words 'Serve the People' embroidered on it."

He glanced at Yao and his eyes lit up.

"I also want!"

She can carry a small one, which makes her look particularly energetic.

"Okay, okay, I'll give it all to you."

After finishing her meal, Lan Lan started to make clothes and bags for the two children. She sewed stitch by stitch while Chao Yao sat beside her and watched.

It has been popular for girls to do embroidery since a few years ago. Lanlan is also very good at it, and she is very good at making clothes.

Chaoyao would occasionally help her, and even with all the bumps and bruises she could manage to make a pair of shorts.

Lan Lan would always embroider one or two kinds of fruits on her finished products. Chao Yao didn't like embroidery, so she liked her to embroider some small animals and fruits on them, which made them look cute.

After several days, Lan Lan finally finished making clothes for both children.

Chao Jianguo and Chao Yao turned around in the clothes and looked at Chao Wujun and Lan Lan with smiles on their faces, showing satisfaction.

"Jianguo has grown up and is almost an adult."

Lan Lan looked at her eldest son and sighed.

"No, I'm fourteen now. In two years I can go to work."

Chao Jianguo raised his head, his face full of pride.

Chao Wujun looked at this scene with a bit of bitterness in his eyes.

There are not many job opportunities in the city, and moving to the countryside has become a goal for every family. Their daughter is still young, so the only one who might go is their son.

He always kept an eye on the recruitment trends of his own textile mill and other factories, but such opportunities were really rare.

Many of the educated youth who were forced to go to the countryside have regretted their decision and are eager to return to the city, but now the only ones who can return are those who are sick, disabled, and unable to work, as well as those who have special difficulties such as old and sick parents and no one around them.

It is not impossible to return to the city through work, but the probability is too small.

It is not easy for children from the city to stay, let alone those who have already moved to the countryside.

It was almost inevitable that Chao Jianguo would go to the countryside.

Chao Wujun has already made plans for the worst. If he cannot get him into the Construction Corps or the Forest Farm, he will have to use his connections to get him closer to home.
