Reborn with a Cell Phone 2007

Ruan Xiangxiu brought out a large bowl of meat from the cupboard. No wonder Ji Shumiao only got a chicken leg at the dinner table.

Ji Shumiao jumped off the long bench, took Ruan Xiangxiu's hand and went to visit Grandma Xiuying. The father-in-law and son-in-law were still drinking, and Qin Rong would not go. If she went, it would only make Grandma Xiuying sad.

Alas, it’s really a story like this: the child has no mother. It’s a long story.

The Qin family, including Qin Sheng's generation and the previous generation, can only be described as "a family full of loyal heroes". Just talking about Qin Sheng's grandfather, he was the sixth child in the family. His three older brothers and two older sisters all died in the revolution, the war of resistance, and the construction era. Because Qin Sheng was an old man, he was left at home. When he was old enough to join the army, it was already a peaceful era. And Xiuying's husband, Qin Sheng's grandfather's cousin, Qin Shuo, really came through the hail of bullets.

During the Korean War, eighteen men from Qinjiawan left and only one returned.

Grandpa Qin Shuo was injured on the battlefield and had no children. When he was old, he finally had a baby girl named Qin Feiyan, who was about the same age as Qin Rong, and they grew up together. Aunt Feiyan was the only daughter, so she was naturally raised like a treasure. At first, Aunt Feiyan was very hardworking. She was admitted to university in 1997 and went to study in a coastal city in the south.

But, the bad thing is this university.

The next year, Aunt Feiyan suddenly returned to Qinjiawan with a big belly. No matter how Qin Shuo's grandfather scolded and questioned her, she never said who the father of the child was. Qin Shuo's grandfather and Xiuying's grandmother could not resist their biological daughter, so they had to acknowledge this grandson of unknown origin - that is, Zechuan's younger brother.

Originally, Grandpa Qin Shuo wanted to let Zechuan take the surname Qin, but Aunt Feiyan, who had just given birth, disagreed no matter what and wanted him to take the surname Zhang. She even had a big fight with Grandpa Qin Shuo about this, which made Grandpa Qin Shuo so angry that he suffered from high blood pressure and cerebral hemorrhage. Coupled with the recurrence of his old injuries, he died soon after.

In the end, Zechuan's younger brother still took the surname Zhang.

Ugh--

After two years of peace and quiet, Aunt Feiyan suddenly left without saying goodbye, taking Brother Zechuan with her, and left a letter to Grandma Xiuying saying she was going to look for Brother Zechuan's father. A year later, Grandma Xiuying received a call from the local public security bureau in Shenzhen, informing her that Aunt Feiyan had died in a car accident. Grandma Xiuying went to Shenzhen and brought back Brother Zechuan and Aunt Feiyan in a small jar.

Grandma Xiuying's eyes were damaged from crying at that time.

I really don't know what kind of man is worthy of Aunt Feiyan doing this, completely disregarding her parents, children, ethics, and morals.

We walked through a large rice field and arrived at Grandma Xiuying's home on the opposite hillside. It was an old red brick house with firewood piled half a person high under the eaves. The yard was a bit messy and the poultry manure made it difficult to step.

"Xiuying, a Sichuan girl!" Ruan Xiangxiu shouted.

As soon as she finished speaking, a dark-skinned boy with a crew cut came out of the kitchen: "Grandma Xiangxiu."

He looked embarrassed and didn't know how to address Ji Shumiao.

"I'm Miaomiao." Ji Shumiao took the initiative to move forward, "You used to take me to catch sparrows!"

In my previous life, I even raised money for my college tuition.

She was too close, Zhang Zechuan couldn't help leaning back, his dark cheeks actually showed a little red, and his ears were red as if bleeding.

Grandma Xiuying, who was sitting in the main room, heard the sound and groped her way out with her cane. Ruan Xiangxiu quickly stuffed the bowl in her hand to Zhang Zechuan, and before Zhang Zechuan could thank her, she quickly stepped forward and helped the old sister-in-law sit down again.

The two old men were chatting in the main room. Zhang Zechuan held the large bowl in his hand, pursed his lips, and turned into the kitchen. Ji Shumiao followed him in: "Are you cooking?"

"Ah."

Zhang Zechuan took out two old bowls with four or five holes in them from the cupboard and put the dishes in Dahai's bowl into his own bowl.

Everything in this house is old.

In the countryside, growing some vegetables, raising some chickens and ducks, and adding the money from the minimum living allowance are just enough to have enough food and clothing, but it is impossible to buy any other things.

Ji Shumiao calculated that Grandma Xiuying would also pass away at the end of next year. It wasn't because of an accident or illness, but because the time had really come and she passed away in her sleep.

Zhang Zechuan grew up eating at other people's houses. After finishing junior high school, he stopped studying and went out to work like many young people in the village. Because he was underage, no formal place wanted him, so he could only work in a shady factory and be exploited by a shady boss. He was deducted from his salary every month and only got a few hundred yuan.

When Ji Shumiao went to college that year, Zhang Zechuan forced the 5,000 yuan he had saved on her. Ji Shumiao refused to take it, so he threw it down and ran away.

Zhang Zechuan's life gradually got better after he became an adult. Who would have thought that the dirty kid who looked like a boiled egg now would become a beauty with his face when he grew up? The year Ji Shumiao graduated and started working, Zhang Zechuan worked as an NPC in an amusement park. He soon became an Internet celebrity because of his outstanding appearance. Zhang Zechuan seized the opportunity and started to do self-media and became a small Internet celebrity. He also came to Ji Shumiao's city to visit her and excitedly said that he would move to her city.

Then, he had a car accident on his way back and died.

Ji Shumiao felt that he might be born unlucky, otherwise why were all the people around him so unfortunate.

The firewood in the stove exploded, emitting one or two sparks, and the dazed Ji Shumiao was pulled away by Zhang Zechuan.

Ji Shumiao looked puzzled: "Hmm?"

Zhang Zechuan blushed and whispered, "Mars."

"Oh."

Zhang Zechuan said nothing and continued to cook the rice. He scooped the cooked rice grains into a gauze-lined winnowing basket, and the rice soup flowed into the pot below. He picked up the gauze and put it into the steamer, poked a few holes in it with chopsticks, covered the pot with a lid and steamed it until cooked.

Ji Shumiao came forward and said, "I want to drink rice soup, brother."

"Ah."

Zhang Zechuan pursed his lips tightly, took out the bowl with the least gap from the cupboard, filled it with rice soup and placed it on the stove in front of her: "There is no sugar. Be careful of the heat."

After he finished doing all this, he went to wash the bowl that Ruan Xiangxiu brought.

"I have candy." Ji Shumiao took out a lollipop and White Rabbit milk candy from her purse and wanted to put them in his pocket but didn't know where to start.

Zhang Zechuan was wearing a cartoon vest that had holes in it after being washed, and a pair of obviously baggy track and field shorts, with the waist tied tightly to prevent the pants from falling down - there were no pockets at all.

"I do not want."

Don’t listen, don’t listen. You bastard, in my previous life I told you I didn’t want your money, but you didn’t listen.

What’s a few candies? I will keep you sweet for the rest of your life, sister.

Ji Shumiao pouted angrily, slapped the candy in his hand on the stove and walked away: "If you don't want to play with me, I don't care!"

After she finished speaking, she turned and left. On her way out, she held onto the door frame and secretly glanced at his reaction, counting 1, 2, 3 in her mind.

"and many more,"

Ji Shumiao grinned but didn't look back.

"I...I don't want to play with you." Zhang Zechuan explained in a low voice.

Ji Shumiao turned around and said angrily, "Humph, you don't even want my candy. You are being distant and treating me like an outsider."

"You gave me all the candy, and you have none left."

Ji Shumiao walked forward and said seriously, "I have a lot of candy."

This time, I had lots and lots of sugar.

Ji Shumiao stuffed all the candies into his hands and said domineeringly: "I am your sister, you are not allowed to refuse anything I give you!"

After a few seconds, Zhang Zechuan said "hmm" softly and nodded.
