"Dad, wake up~"
"Yueyue, don't cry, your dad is fine."
"Ahua just left, and Achen got into trouble again. What a sin!"
"It would be best if he died. He hangs out outside all day and doesn't care about anything at home. What's the difference between being alive and being dead?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, old man? Pah pah pah..."
…
Su Chen slowly opened his eyes and saw four or five people staring at him in the dark room.
He was stunned for a moment, feeling the real touch of the quilt under his hands, and frowned: Is this... a resurrection of the dead?
He clearly remembered that in order to suppress thousands of ghost kings, he and his disciples set up a formation, and in the end he and the ghost kings died together.
Before he could think about it, a memory came crashing down on him.
It turns out that this body is also called Su Chen, and his horoscope is the same as his own. Because he is the youngest son in the family, he has been very spoiled since childhood.
Even after getting married at the age of 20, he still didn't settle down. All the housework was done by his wife, and he spent all day hanging out outside, either playing cards or fishing.
Seeing this, his parents advised Xu Jiahua to have a baby, saying that as long as he had a child, a man's heart would be tied to his home.
In this life, he gave birth to five children.
Half a month ago, Xu Jiahua died of complications during childbirth, leaving behind a hungry baby.
Of course, the original owner was not very sad. After the funeral, he continued to wander around every day and didn't care about the child at all.
I came home in the dark last night and fell at the door. I just woke up now.
After recalling all this, Su Chen had only three words to say: What a sin!
What kind of scumbag is this?
Look at the people in this room. They are all pale and thin, wearing thin clothes. It’s winter now!
Su Chen secretly cursed his original body, but when he met the surprised looks of these people, he didn't know how to start.
After all, he is not the original Su Chen.
"Dad, you're awake? That's great." The little girl cried in surprise and crawled over using her hands and feet.
"Wow~" The baby who had been sleeping next to him was woken up and started crying suddenly.
Everyone was in a panic, holding the baby and changing diapers, and then going out to call a doctor.
Soon, the only ones left in the room were the little girl, about three or four years old, and Su Chen, staring into each other's eyes.
This is the original owner’s third daughter, Yueyue.
Su Chen slowly sat up and his eyes quickly fell on Yueyue's feet.
It's completely bare, without even a sock.
The pants are long enough to cover part of the ankles, but they are obviously too big. Not only are they airtight, but they are also thin.
Looking at the room again, apart from the wooden bed and a chest of drawers, the walls were covered with old newspapers, the floor was still hard dirt, there was a wooden urine bucket in the corner, emitting a foul smell, and there was an old spittoon next to the bed...
The world Su Chen originally lived in was a world where ghosts were revived, but there were also tall buildings, new weapons and new furniture, like this...
Primitive... and poor!
After hesitating for a moment, Su Chen looked at Yueyue again: "Where are your brother and sister?"
The little girl shrank back and said, "Sister is washing clothes, and brother is sleeping with his younger brother in grandma's room."
sleep?
Su Chen was suspicious for a moment, but soon understood.
How can I sleep? I'm afraid I have nothing to wear and can only hide in bed and not go out.
He got up and went to the next room, where he saw two heads sticking out from under the quilt of the wooden bed, with bare shoulders vaguely visible.
"Achen, why did you get up by yourself? It's so cold outside, hurry up, lie down again."
The person who spoke was Su Chen's mother, whose surname was Liu and whose full name was Chunhua.
Liu Chunhua gave birth to eight children, three boys and five girls. Su Chen was the youngest. His older brothers and sisters were all married, but in those days, every family was in a bad situation. Only his third sister married a butcher. She would occasionally give Liu Chunhua some money when she returned to her parents' home, but Liu Chunhua would give it to Su Chen in turn.
That’s right!
The reason why the original owner became like that was because of Liu Chunhua's pampering.
In the years since he got married, the original owner owed a lot of money every year because of playing cards. As soon as the new year came, the creditors would come to his door. It was Liu Chunhua who protected them and planned to pay them back.
Thinking of this, Su Chen looked at Liu Chunhua's cloth shoes with holes in them and sighed.
The village barefoot doctor came and examined Su Chen carefully. When he heard that there was no problem, Liu Chunhua grinned and hurriedly went to stew an egg for Su Chen.
"Ah Chen, don't worry about your dad. He's just a tough talker. He didn't know how worried he was when you weren't awake, but now that you're awake he just keeps nagging. Don't be angry, son. Eat this egg and have a good sleep. Wake up, wake up..."
Liu Chunhua was about to say that she would give him money to go out and play, but when the words came to her lips, she remembered that the little money she had had to buy porridge for her grandson, so she kept silent.
Seeing this, Su Chen smiled and said, "Mom, it's okay. I'll play with Yueyue when I wake up."
Liu Chunhua smiled again: "Oh, good, good~"
"Then eat quickly."
Su Chen was not greedy for this bowl of egg custard.
But I’m really hungry.
But as soon as he picked up the spoon, he felt a burning gaze.
When he turned around, he saw Yueyue staring at him and swallowing hard.
Seeing him looking at her, Yueyue quickly turned her head away.
Seeing this, Liu Chunhua glared at Yueyue and smiled at Su Chen: "Yueyue is still young, you don't need to eat so well, you can eat by yourself, and I will stew a bowl for Yueyue when I am free later."
Seeing Su Chen nod and take a sip into his mouth, Liu Chunhua finally smiled.
"Grandma, where's the clothes hanger?"
A girl's clear voice came from outside.
Liu Chunhua's face turned pale and she walked out of the house cursing.
"What are you yelling about? Can't you see? Or do you just eat? Isn't this a clothes hanger? You just yell all day long, don't you have any energy..."
Su Chen swallowed the egg custard, sighed, turned around and pulled Yueyue over.
"Come on, Yueyue, try a bite or two for Daddy and see if it's salty."
The little girl's eyes suddenly lit up.
He let out a howl, his eyes curved in satisfaction.
When asked if it was salty, the little girl immediately shook her head and said, "Not salty, sweet."
Su Chen laughed.
It contains soy sauce, so how can it be sweet?
This child...
He sighed, put the bowl on the chest of drawers and began to rummage around.
After searching around, I only found ten dollars.
Su Chen, who didn't believe in evil, counted on his fingers again and felt discouraged.
It's not just poor, the house is completely bare.
According to the original owner's memory, these ten dollars could only buy five kilograms of pork and could not be used for anything else.
Got to make money!
When the eldest daughter Honghong came in wearing thin clothes, her little hands and face were red from the cold, Su Chen hurriedly coaxed her to eat the remaining egg custard, and then began to tidy up the house.
After Xu Jiahua passed away, according to custom, her clothes that were more fitted were burned. Liu Chunhua took away the remaining old clothes, saying that they could be altered so that they could be worn by the children. So, in the entire chest of drawers, only Su Chen and the children's thin summer clothes were left. It was only a thin layer, and they were sorted out quite quickly.
After taking out the wooden box under the bed and wiping it, Su Chen met Honghong's worried gaze.
"What's wrong?"
Honghong pursed her lips and said, "Dad, are you going to work far away too?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Asheng's father passed away two years ago and hasn't come back yet."
After saying that, Honghong lowered her head, stirring the pot with her red hands. "Grandma said before that the south is very dangerous. I'm afraid everyone is dead already."
This is worrying about yourself!
A warm feeling flowed through Su Chen's heart.
What virtue and ability did the original owner have?
Even though he is such a scumbag, there are still so many people who care about him.
Thinking of Su Chen, he raised his hand and touched Honghong's head.
"Don't worry, Dad won't go far away."
"Really?" Honghong was surprised.
Su Chen smiled and nodded.
"But Dad has to go to the city tomorrow."
Honghong blinked for a long time before she uttered a blank sound: "...Ah?"
