Very convenient, He Tiantian, the body she had time-traveled into, "He Xiaotian," belonged to a family in Zhaojiawa known for its difficulties.
Zhaojiawa was originally a remote village in the mountains where transportation was inconvenient and there were no specialty products.
Generations had relied on farming to make a living.
Even by the mid to late nineties, when large numbers of peasants were migrating to cities to work, Zhaojiawa had not shed its label as a poverty-stricken village.
Indeed, there were young people in the village who went out to work, but most villagers preferred to stay in their hometown.
Aside from having no money, life in their hometown was tolerable—they could grow their own food, vegetables, and the mountains provided game and mushrooms, wild fruits.
But, to live a better life, or to provide education for their children, always staying in the village just didn't work.
