EndlessFantasy TranslationQu Meng’er did not know anything about the situation in the 1970s. In her previous life, the Qu family had lived in England before the 1980s, and most of their businesses were overseas.
It was only after the 1980s that the Qu family slowly moved their businesses overseas to China because the head wanted to return to his hometown. The original members of the Qu family also moved back from abroad.
It could be said that no one in the Qu family had experienced the life in China before the 1980s. Therefore, Qu Meng’er only had a rough understanding of the standard of living of ordinary people in the 1970s when she was studying modern Chinese history and Chinese economics.
The deepest impression Qu Meng’er had of the 1970s in China was poverty, backwardness, and nothing else. Of course, there was also the financial and economic situation. Who asked Qu Meng’er to roll in money in her previous life?
Now, Qu Meng’er was personally in the 1970s, and only then did she realize that the standard of living in the 1970s was so poor that she couldn’t believe it. Such a standard of living was something Qu Meng’er had never imagined in her previous life.
She didn’t dare. Qu Meng’er’s ability to adapt was pretty good. Since she had come, she would just settle down.
Thus, Qu Meng’er ate and slept for a week. Of course, during this week, when Qu Meng’er was asleep, she spent most of the time sending her consciousness into the space.
She was in the study room in the space, reading the books on the wall. Initially, Qu Meng’er was thinking of going to the Qu’s department store in the space to look for books that introduced medicinal herbs. However, before she could take action, she found a linear book that described medicinal herbs on the wall of the book.
What made Qu Meng’er feel a headache coming was that she actually saw many ancient medical books on the bookshelf that she had only heard of but had not seen before.
These books were all on the bookshelf. Moreover, Qu Meng’er took them out to take a look and realized that they were actually authentic. At that time, Qu Meng’er had been guessing. “These ancient medical books will be lost. Could it be that these ancient medical books were all stored in the space by the previous owner of this space?”
The more Qu Meng’er thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. If these ancient medical books were to stay in this portable space, who in this world would be able to find them. Of course, other than her and the previous owner of this space.
And now, Qu Meng’er, who was unable to do anything and didn’t even have the ability to take care of herself in real life, was holding the most basic medical books in the space to kill time.
On this rare day, the people in the village didn’t go to work and were all resting at home. Chen Ping and Liu Juan were also at home. They took advantage of this break time to clean the house.
During this week, Qu Meng’er also got some general information. The village she was in now was called Chen family village. In Chen family village, most of the families were surnamed Chen. And a small number of people who were not surnamed Chen came from the city to know about it.
And Qu Meng’er’s current family head, Chen Ping was a native of the Chen family village. And Liu Juan’s mother’s home was in the neighboring village, her mother’s home was not far from her husband’s home.
Originally, Liu Juan’s family did not agree to marry Liu Juan to Chen Ping. Because Chen Ping lost his parents early on, it was his elder brother and elder sister who brought him up. And his family conditions were not very good. Liu Juan’s parents were afraid that their daughter would suffer if she married into the Chen family.
However, Liu Juan liked Chen Ping at first sight and insisted on marrying Chen Ping.. In the end, Liu Juan’s parents had no choice but to follow their daughter’s wishes and let her marry Chen Ping.
