Double Life: My whole world is you

In the morning, she buried herself in her grandmother's arms and fell asleep quickly. When she woke up again, it was already past eight o'clock. Although it was still drizzling, it was already light outside. Her grandmother had also gotten up, and she quickly got dressed and got up. When she came to the kitchen, her grandmother had already cooked, and the aroma of rice crust came from the pot.

"Wow, grandma, we have rice crust porridge today!" Cheng Qiao said happily while sitting next to the stove.

"Yes, there is cauliflower today." Grandma opened the pot and poured the rice in. She also used a spatula to scoop some rice crust into her bowl, and then poured the rice soup in the soup bowl beside her into the pot.

"Wow, then I'll have two bowls of rice today, plus a bowl of rice crust porridge." Cheng Qiao picked up the rice with rice crust and sat at the small table to eat.

Cheng Qiao ate two large bowls of rice, one and a half bowls of rice porridge, and finally held her waist with satisfaction, "Grandma, I'm so full!"

"Silly child, don't eat too much at one meal. Only 80% full is enough." Grandma said, "Eating too much will make your stomach uncomfortable."

"Okay, grandma, I'll be careful next time." Cheng Qiao responded with a smile. She hasn't eaten so much for a long time. Since her weight exceeded 110 pounds and she saw on the Internet that eating rice makes you fat, she believes in the truth that eating vegetables does not make you fat, but eating rice makes you fat. She never eats more than three scoops of rice each time. The authentic rice porridge from the stove is really delicious! She feels like she can eat another bowl. Anyway, she won't gain weight now! Haha! This is the happiness of a person who eats a lot!

After the meal, her grandmother handed her a small clay pot with a handle, which contained some wood chips, some thinly broken branches, and fire points dug out from under the stove. At that time, when fire-making equipment was not yet popular, this was equivalent to the fire-making equipment used by their ancient servants.

Cheng Qiao carried the small pottery jar to her uncle's room. She moved the table and chairs to the window and started to do her homework. She did her math homework first. After many calculations, she finally solved the math problem half an hour later. She put down her pen and looked at the three problems carefully. She was thinking about how to explain it to Zhang Yandi on Monday and organizing the language in her mind.

When Cheng Qiao was doing her Chinese homework, her aunt-in-law came down from the second floor with Yingying. She was going to the kitchen to cook. Yingying moved a small chair to sit next to her and put her hand next to the small oven, "Qiaojie, it's so cold!"

"Warm your hands a little, and you won't feel cold when I finish my homework and play eagle catches chicken with you and your brother." Cheng Qiao touched her head and moved the oven a little closer to her. Then she continued to work on her homework.

When she finished Chinese, math and English, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning. The rain outside had stopped, but the sky was still gloomy and the wind was blowing. It was still very cold outside. They closed the door. Yangyang and Xiaoyanzi also came to their aunt's place. Cheng Qiao put away the homework and played games with them...

The rain kept coming and going throughout Saturday. It was cold outside, so they all hid at home. Both of her uncles had TVs, but they were all in their rooms. In her previous life, Cheng Qiao would watch TV with her cousins, but in this life, she was not interested in the content of those TV programs because she had already seen most of them. In addition, she was eager to improve herself, so she spent more time on studying. She finished all her homework before dark on Saturday. She could use the weekend day to review.

She and her grandmother had eaten early, soaked their feet and lay down on the bed. It was not yet seven o'clock in the evening. Because she had slept well the previous night, she could not fall asleep today. Cheng Qiao acted coquettishly with her grandmother, "Grandma, can you tell me your past stories?"

"In the past, life was hard! We didn't have enough to eat, we didn't have warm clothes, and we didn't have a home." She sighed heavily, "Alas! Especially when the Japanese were here, we often couldn't even go home."

"Grandma, what do the Japs look like?" Cheng Qiao asked, "Does every Japs have a beard?"

"The Japanese wore iron hats, and anyone who approached them would die. Beards? Yes, they had beards." Grandma said, "Girls your age were the most pitiful at that time. They had to dress themselves up dirty every day for fear of being seen by the Japanese. I was still young at that time. There were adults standing guard at every bay. When we heard that the Japanese were coming, everyone would run to the mountains with their belongings. Anything that was not taken away in time would be snatched away by the Japanese. Those who did not have time to escape would have their chickens and ducks slaughtered. Sometimes they could not find anything and would set fire to the house, so your grandmother would always leave some things at home... Alas, it was so difficult at that time. It was normal to be alive today and dead tomorrow. It was not bad to have some tree bark to eat... Alas, we finally drove the Japanese away, and then we encountered a great famine. That year, your eldest uncle, who was about the same age as Yangyang, fell ill and had no food. How could we have money to treat him? Just like that, he died... Later, we survived the famine and had your mother... Your mother also had a hard life. She was in poor health since she was a child..."

As grandma spoke, her voice gradually became quieter and quieter, and finally she fell asleep. Cheng Qiao looked at the time and saw that it was only half past seven. She secretly got up and took Zhang Yandi's book "The Ten Marshals of New China" and started reading it under the light. The more she read, the more excited she became. Before she knew it, she had read a quarter of the book. The light was getting dim. She marked the book, turned off the light, and looked at her watch. It was nearly eleven o'clock. She lay down, closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.

In the dream, she was in the war-torn era. She even saw the devils chasing them with guns. She ran desperately and finally ran into the mountains. Then there were wolves in the mountains. She was scared and ran down the mountain again. She ran and ran until she reached the foot of the mountain and hid in a temple. There she met Marshal Ye Jianying, who was leading his soldiers in a bloody battle with the devils...

Although she was sleeping the whole night, she was so tired from running all the time. When she woke up, she felt sore in her hands and feet. It turned out that she had been sleeping in the same position, and her hands and feet were numb...

It didn't rain again over the weekend, and the sun gradually rose in the afternoon. There was no cold north wind, and the temperature rose by two degrees. Cheng Qiao spent the whole morning strengthening her math and English. In the afternoon, she planned to play with her cousins ​​for a while and consolidate her knowledge of politics and history...

She was going to take the kids out for a stroll when Wang Ran and Wang Liqin came in from the side door arm in arm. Cheng Qiao was a little surprised to see them. Although they belonged to the same bay as her grandmother's family, Wangjia Bay was quite large and was divided into Shangwang and Xiawang. Although Wang Ran, Wang Liqin and her grandmother's family all belonged to Shangwang, Shangwang was also divided into Shangmen and Xiamen. Her grandmother's family belonged to Shangmen, and the new house built by her two uncles was on the edge of Shangmen, close to Chengliang Bay, while Wang Ran and Wang Liqin belonged to Xiamen. Their families were still quite far from her grandmother's family, so they rarely visited each other.

Cheng Qiao happily went over to them, "Why are you here?"
