National Treasure Scientist in the 1970s

The system was already secretly having the idea of changing its host.

So it didn’t bother to say anything to Baizhi.

Baizhi didn’t either.

She walked towards Li Shuanmin and reached to him: “Grandpa.”

Shuanmin was so angry that he almost couldn’t get up, and now his eye were shaking all of a sudden, his hands pulled Baizhi, and his voice trembled: “Little Baizhi it was Grandpa’s fault I didn’t protect you and because of that you not only failed to take the college entrance examination, you also had to use a knife to block them!”

If her parents were still there, could his granddaughter suffer such grievances?

Shuanmin felt very uncomfortable.

Baizhi shook her head:” It’s okay, I can go to university without a college entrance examination.”

Shuanmin heard these words, when he was coaxing her and the corner of his mouth twitched: “You child… how can you go to a college without a college entrance examination…”

Thinking about it he was still very angry and hit the ground with a simple wooden stick and crutched.

“In the past, when the family next door was so poor that they couldn’t afford food, that they almost sold their children, I took them in and even gave them a place in our house along with providing them food. Li Dazhu’s father at the time said that he would repay us by being ox and horse, but what happened? He robbed our house, and when the situation changed, he shouted slogans and kicked us out. These wolves, they will definitely be punished!!”

“Well, there will be retribution.” Their retribution was her.

After Baizhi finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at her house. This house, which was converted from a sheep pen, was not good. There were only two rooms, and it was shabby and shabby, and they could hardly block the wind.

But their family had no strong labor, can’t maintain the house, and can’t even earn work points to ask for help, so they can only live like this.

The old is old and the young one is so small that this winter Li Shuanmin died in the cold night.

Baizhi looked at the old man and said seriously: “Grandpa, we won’t live here in the future, let’s live in a better house.”

“You kid, you make me so happy…” Li Shuanmin lost his anger when he saw his granddaughter was coaxing him.

Baizhi’s face was serious: “I’m serious!”

“Okay, you’re serious.” Li Shuanmin obviously didn’t take this seriously.

But since his granddaughter was willing to say good things to coax him, he laughed so hard that all his teeth could be seen.

After Baizhi returned to her room, she searched in and out, only to find a broken bicycle. This family is so poor, that even if the bicycle is too bad to look at and work, they were reluctant to throw it away, so they just kept it in here.

Baizhi looked at the bicycle, and had an idea in her head, and then pulled out the maintenance tools left by the original owner’s father, and began to fiddle with things.

The original owner’s father was a maintenance worker, so even if he wasn’t welcomed, his life could go on.

If it wasn’t for the early death of her parents, the original owner would not have had such a tragic life.

Baizhi fiddled around, but Li Shuanmin didn’t stop her. He actually doted on his granddaughter very much, but because he was so old, he couldn’t make his granddaughter live a good life.

Soon, Baizhi came up with a little thing.

What is this?

The system was not going to talk to the host at first, but looking at Baizhi’s seriousness, he couldn’t help but ask.

“Trap,” Baizhi said.

“What?” 444 looked confused

Is this a trap?!

It looks strange, several iron bars removed from the bicycle were tied together, crossed on the two wheels of the bicycle, and held by several iron wires.

Baizhi pulled the iron wire and moved them, and the wheels moved along with it, including the several iron rods which hit both sides at right angles.

She removed the pedals and other parts of the bicycle, including the saddle and chain.

Materials were limited and only such things could be made use of.

After it was done, Baizhi put away the iron wire, placed it in the corner with the finished items, washed her hands, and while it was still dark, found the original owner’s books and pen, and began to write.

‘Hmm..she writes very fast, page after page.’

Li Shuanmin took a few glances when he passed by. He was also literate. When Li Shuanmin was young, his family was rich, he went to school seriously, and knew a lot of characters.

It’s just that at this moment, he found out that what Baizhi wrote was something he didn’t know!

There were some strange formulas and English in between. Li Shuanmin couldn’t understand them at all, so he stopped reading them. He just told Baizhi not to be too tired, as he continued to keep himself busy.

Baizhi still liked studying very much. He can still move now, so he must work hard so that his family Baizhi can go to study next year, into a university, and leave this village where she is a ‘Disaster star’.

He has been like this all his life, he must at least make Baizhi live better!

Baizhi’s writing came to a halt after it turned dark.

She blinked, closed the pen, and put the writing aside casually.

Li Shuanmin had just finished cooking and came over to ask Baizhi to eat.

Their family was poor, and they had nothing to eat. Wild vegetables were served with coarse-grain soup. Fortunately, it was summer. In winter, there were no wild vegetables.

As coarse grains crossed her throat, Baizhi was a little uncomfortable to eat, but she still ate it seriously.

When she was in her own world, sometimes she was busy with research and didn’t want to eat, so she had people send nutrient solutions directly to the door of the laboratory, but even those nutrient solutions that they sent her were the better tasting and most nutritious ones.

It was the first time for Baizhi to eat wild vegetables with whole grains.

On the opposite side, Li Shuanmin was very happy to eat. For a starving person like him, being able to eat something and fill his stomach was still a very good thing.

“Eat more…” Li Shuanmin served Baizhi with vegetables.

“Grandpa, you eat it too.”

“You eat, you eat, you are young, you have to eat more. After a while, the corn will be fully grown, and grandpa will make corn tortillas for you to eat. You like to eat that…” The old man smiled with a benevolent face.

Baizhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “Okay.”

One old and one young, eating coarse grains and wild vegetables, the atmosphere was still very warm.

But the next door couldn’t stay still and started to scold again.

“Things that are immoral and wrong are wrong, want to take work points from other people’s families. It also depends on whether you have that blessing! A broom star, you already killed your parents, you still want to kill others, sooner or later one day your whole family will be dead!”

“You are not a son to continue your family, you shouldn’t be able to go to college. You will have no future in the future, and if you want to marry then marry as Wang Lao’s widow…”

Probably enough to eat, drink and fight, Chen Guifang had a lot of strength, as she walked towards the next door and started cursing again.

Her scolding has been on and off for an entire afternoon.

Li Shuanmin was trembling with anger, he put down the dishes, stood up, and was about to go out.

Baizhi reached out and grabbed him.

The old man is old, and he can’t scold Chen Guifang efficiently. Going out is going to make the other party scold more vigorously, and he will also be angry in vain. If he is angry and falls ill, it will be a big loss.

Baizhi said: “Grandpa, I want to go to the country town later and send something out tomorrow morning. Grandpa, can you go with me?”

Li Shuanmin was stunned for a moment, and he couldn’t care much about the scolding outside and said hurriedly: “I can’t do it tomorrow. Why are you going there? I went to the country town a few days ago. Do you know someone who lives there? And I also have to go to the field tomorrow, the corn is going to be harvested soon…”

He just started talking, Baizhi looked at him and said, “Grandpa, I don’t want to listen to her cursing. And I have to send a few things. If I go alone, Grandpa won’t you worry? As for where we will stay at night, don’t worry I have a plan. Then we will go to the Brigade Leader to ask him to send a letter of a new idea.”

If she doesn’t take the old man out, won’t the old man follow the three unlucky brothers next door at night? 

She persuaded Li Shuanmin with a few words. But because he was worried about his granddaughter, he could only go out with her when he saw that his granddaughter was determined.

The family was really poor, so when he left, Li Shuanmin took all the valuable things with him.

The two were walking on the road.

Because it was summer and it was dark at night, the sky was still a little bright at the moment, so it wasn’t like walking in complete darkness, but everyone was at home preparing to sleep, and no one was wandering outside.

Li Shuanmin took what Baizhi wrote and the little money left at home, as well as the letter of a new idea. Baizhi carried the bag, and the two walked side by side to the country town.

Li Shuanmin walked sighing silently in his heart, this time Baizhi suffered such a big grievance, and fell into the water without being able to write the college entrance examination.

He was old, and there is no way for her to live a good life. Whether it is going to the city or whatever, he just wanted to follow his granddaughter.

It’s not too far to go to the city, and people in the village almost always walk so it was not a big deal.

Listening to Baizhi’s words, the two of them came out from the back door, and no one in the village knew that they had left the house, including the next door.

When leaving, Baizhi even left an oil lamp behind.

There was not much oil left, and it won’t last long, but it was enough to confuse people with bad intentions into thinking there’s someone at home.

She walked for a while, looked behind her, and smiled coldly.

When the two arrived at the town, Li Shuanmin was dizzy and was taken by Baizhi to secretly sell books.

The original owner had read the book on the commute and had some understanding of the county situation. Baizhi extracted the information from the memory left by the original owner and sold the book soon after.

The college entrance examination was just resumed last year, and now as long as students wanted to take the college entrance examination, they needed to buy rare books.

Before Li Shuanmin could react, the books were secretly sold by Baizhi, and she got the money and went directly to a guest house.

“Little Zhi, how can you sell those books?! Let’s go and retire from the guest house, and go quickly to redeem the books back!” Li Shuanmin was very anxious and reached out to pull Baizhi.

Baizhi pressed him and made him sit on the chair, her voice was calm, and she avoided the key points lightly: “Grandpa, you can live in peace, the conditions back home are not good, you will live here, and I will let you live in a good house later.”

As for the books above, the content was too simple for Baizhi, and there is no need to read them at all, and thus there is no need for those books.

When Li Shuanmin heard this, he forgot to even shout, so he couldn’t help but say, “Aren’t the conditions here good? This is already the best conditions!”

A place like a guest house is not suitable for those who are used to living in a house converted from a sheep pen. Humanly, it was really good.

It’s a good thing that this girl’s personality suddenly becomes cheerful, but it’s too outrageous!

“Baizhi, hurry up and get the books back, you can’t sell them!” Li Shuanmin said again.

“Grandpa, I’m sleepy and want to sleep, and they won’t return the money after handing in the room.” Baizhi blinked her eyes.

Li Shuanmin suddenly thought of how his granddaughter looked out of the weather today…

Oops, she has been wronged, maybe she is not feeling well, doesn’t she just want to live better, the rooms are all here, just live!

“Hurry up and go to sleep.” Li Shuanmin sighed, “…Sigh, you can’t be like this in the future.”

He looked up at the room with a cabinet and a bed and touched it here and there.

This guest house conditions are really good.

That night, Li Shuanmin slept quite well.

Although he was very reluctant to live there, it was really comfortable to live in. There were not as many mosquitoes as in the countryside, there was no air leakage at night, and the bed was clean and comfortable. He closed his eyes and woke up at dawn.

When they left the next day, Li Shuanmin glanced back, “It’s comfortable to live here, but just for a night, it’s really too expensive… Baizhi, you can’t be like this in the future.”

He thought to himself, when he goes back, he must work hard to go to the field, go up the mountain after work, get some mountain goods, and buy the books for next year’s college entrance examination for Baizhi as soon as possible,

Li Shuanmin endured the distress and thought absentmindedly. At this time, Baizhi had gone to the state-run restaurant next to her to buy three big meat buns, one for her and two for Li Shuanmin.

“Little Zhi” Li Shuanmin clutched his chest, looking distressed.

Baizhi nibbled the buns with one hand and fed the other buns to the old man’s mouth with the other hand: “Grandpa, it’s so delicious, I can’t give it back.”

Li Shuanmin:”….”

He felt so distressed that his hands were shaking, but he took a bite…

It was really delicious.

Full of meat, the white noodles are also fragrant and soft.

It seems that he hasn’t eaten meat for a year. As for the meat buns, the last time he ate these was when he was young…

It’s so delicious, I can’t wait to swallow them in my mouth.

It’s just so distressing.

Li Shuanmin took the bun and followed behind Baizhi to the place where the letter was sent.

Baizhi divided what she wrote into two parts and sent it to two places. She believed that as long as the other party read it, they would definitely come to her.

Afterward, Baizhi used the money left over from selling books to go to the place where the waste was stored. The money was given to the gatekeeper, and she picked up a lot of waste before taking Li Shuanmin home.

When the two left, they held books, and when they came back, they carried a pile of ‘scrap” on their backs

Along the way, Li Shuanmin kept saying, “Baizhi, it’s too expensive to live in a stay, and the meat buns were too expensive! You shouldn’t do things like you did today again, and how can you sell those books? Then…..but you want to go to college! You still have to review, so that you can go to college next year…”

He sighed, very worried.

Baizhi: “Grandpa, don’t worry, I’m going to college soon, and those books are not needed.” The old man wanted to say something but kept quiet.

Baizhi: “Grandpa, I will prepare a big house for you, so that you can eat meat buns every day even if you don’t want to eat them now!”

Li Shuanmin was originally very sad, but he was quickly coaxed to be happy.

Even if he knew – this must have been a method to coax him by his granddaughter! He couldn’t say anything.

Does he still want to eat meat buns?

What a day it was!

Impossible, impossible.

Inside Baizhi’s head, System 444 couldn’t help but speak again- “Host, you should study hard, go to university, and not spend the money from selling books. This is very incorrect behavior! Li Baizhi will definitely not be satisfied with this, not to mention that you still bought so many waste products. Broken parts, scrap steel, stuff tested and found to have no saleable value!”
