Before the 1980s, women in China still used menstrual belts during their menstrual period. It was not until 1982 that the first sanitary napkin production line was introduced into China, but Chinese people really began to accept and widely use sanitary napkins. It was in the mid to late nineties.
It is the early 1920s, and the menstrual belt has long been abandoned. Except for a few women in remote areas who still maintain this habit, most women have begun to adapt to sanitary napkins of various brands and materials.
Jiang Liunan was standing at the entrance of the small supermarket near the school, wandering and tangled.
She knew that several sisters in the family must have extra sanitary napkins, but because of her former masculinity, Jiang Liunan didn't want other people in the family to know about her period, so buying sanitary napkins became her face now. Right first level.
Originally, Jiang Liunan wanted the little chubby girl at the same table to buy it for her. After all, the other party already knew about her coming to menstruation, and it seemed that there was no point in hiding it from the other party.
But today Little Fat Girl's grandfather came to pick her up. It seems that something happened at home, and the originally agreed plan could only end in failure.
"Early death and early life."
Jiang Liunan took a deep breath, walked to the small supermarket, searched around, and finally found a shelf with sanitary napkins.
There are many brands of sanitary napkins on the market. Among them, the one that occupies the largest area of shelves is a sanitary napkin brand named Anerle, which is a sub-brand of the domestic brand Hengan. Hengan is one of the earliest brands of sanitary napkins in China. One, An Erle's predecessor is Anle, and people like Jiang Liunan who have never paid attention to this kind of products have heard of this brand.
The owner of this brand is very courageous. In order to seize the market, he bought the advertisement of the popular Hong Kong drama Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea in the 1980s. It was this advertisement that completely opened up the empty sanitary napkin market in China. Even though there are many foreign brands, this brand is still Occupying the largest market share in Huaguo, this is also a brand that leads Huaguo sanitary napkins to the era of wings.
Jiang Liunan didn't know what the difference was between these things. The small buns were packaged with pink and blue shells, and people were dazzled. Even though she had now become a girl, Jiang Liunan still had a sense of shame of being a pervert standing beside this container. .
I didn't analyze the details of the goods carefully. I chose a few brands that were familiar to me and had a relatively cheap price, and then quickly ran to the counter to check out.
"Little girl, you need these. They are all for daily use and may leak at night."
People of this era are characterized by enthusiasm, the fat salesman was chatting with Jiang Liunan while calculating the price of the goods, "This brand of sanitary napkins are famous, but they are not easy to use, they are stuffy and hot, and they are not breathable at all. Auntie recommends that you buy An Erle's 320-long wing guard cotton, it's easy to use."
The salesperson's voice was loud and high-pitched, and Jiang Liunan's embarrassed face was smoking. She felt that everyone in the supermarket was looking at her now, and they must be thinking, oh, that little girl is on her period!
"That's all, how much."
Jiang Liunan's head was in a mess, and he didn't listen carefully to what the salesman said, just wanted to quickly buy things and disappear.
She swore that she would never come to this supermarket to buy anything again!
The sales clerk only thought that she had night use at home, and didn't say anything more after calculating the money.
******
Jiang Liunan, who came home at night, avoided his family like a thief, secretly took a bath and put on clean underwear.
"It seems a little different."
She hurriedly put on the newly bought sanitary napkin. Jiang Liunan felt that it seemed to be shorter than the one given to her by the chubby girl, but she didn't know what the effect of the length was. .
After doing all this, Jiang Liunan avoided people to wash and dry the panties stained with her aunt. Because the weather is hot now, everyone just thought she was sweating a lot in physical education class at school and was in a hurry to take a shower, and didn't think much about it.
At night, Jiang Liunan's stomach hurt even more, curled up on the bed like a small shrimp, but she didn't dare to move, because every time she turned over, she could feel the turbulence in her lower body.
She finally fell asleep. When she woke up the next day, looking at the sheets and quilts that had already been stained with blood, Jiang Liunan felt the world's malice towards her even more deeply.
She seemed to want to understand the difference between daily use and night use in the supermarket salesperson's mouth, but she figured out the meaning of side leakage in the mouth of her roommate, chubby girl.
It's a pity that she realized it too late. On the second day of her aunt's arrival, she had to learn to face a bed sheet waiting to be washed, a quilt cover that was also stained with blood, and once again dirty underwear and pajama pants.
Everyone in the old house knew that the youngest sister of the Jiang family was an adult now.
******
"Look at your child, what is there to hide from menstruation? If you are confused, you don't know how to ask a few sisters. It's better now, and the blood is dyed in a river."
The old lady slipped away, the pile of blood-stained sheets and quilt covers.
"Be careful in the future. Also, don't eat raw and cold things these days, and don't eat red dates. Those things are for nourishing blood and qi. The more blood you replenish, the more you shed."
In Pan Xiuluo's heart, this little granddaughter has always been stupid. Compared with the stupid things she had done before, her daily use is nothing.
"By the way, don't touch cold water when you're menstruating. You don't do anything wrong when you're young, and you'll suffer when you're old."
Jiang Liunan watched the old lady pointing at the pile of dirty quilt covers in front of her, thinking that the old lady was going to let a few sisters help her wash, and she was overjoyed.
"So later, go and boil a few pots of hot water yourself. When you wash the quilt cover, do you know that the hot water well water is mixed with a piece of water?"
After all, the old lady went out and chatted with the old sister just like the shopkeeper.
The dream was broken, Jiang Liunan could only grit his teeth and endure the pain in his lower abdomen, and followed the old lady's advice to boil a few pots of hot water.

When Jiang Liu returned to her hometown to visit her grandmother and some old relatives during the holiday, Jiang Liunan had already experienced two periods, and the two periods were more painful each time, and when the period came, she couldn't jump around like usual. The familiar foreign body sensation made her walk in small steps like a woman with her feet bound in those days.
At this moment, seeing the clean and refreshing "self" who is arrogant and joking, Jiang Liunan felt a sense of grievance in his heart.
Why should she take on this? Why did she endure so much hardship in the last life, but how could she be so good and happy in this world
The catastrophe that should have appeared in Jiang's family in the last life has long since passed. Jiang Liunan originally thought that she would remind her when her original father in this world encountered the defrauding Hong Kong businessman. As a result, in this world, her father himself Taking the initiative to avoid that crisis, the doom of bankruptcy in the previous life will naturally not be repeated this time.
"Myself" did not experience the great changes in her family, she successfully completed her undergraduate studies, and even completed her master's and doctoral studies with excellent grades. In the past, because of family changes, she had to leave the big city and return to the county town, struggling to survive.
The comparison is really hurtful.
Jiang Liunan comforted himself, after all, it is "he" who enjoys happiness. It is also a good thing that his father has not gone bankrupt in this life.
But at the same time, she felt that God was too unfair, why did he go through those things in the last life.
She comforted herself again, it's okay, she still has the advantage of rebirth, she has many opportunities to get rich, but when she wants to practice, reality gives her a fatal blow.
Jiang Liunan knew about the 92 fortune certificate, but she was only 4 years old when the securities were issued.
Jiang Liunan knew that the 1980s and 1990s was a golden age for business, but she was still in elementary school, and with only a small pocket of money, she could only afford a bus ticket to the county seat.
Jiang Liunan knew that the price of the house would rise in the future, so he calculated the funds he had on hand. Even in the current period of low housing prices, he still couldn't even afford an area the size of a fingernail.
He has an empty head of ideas, but the possibility of practice is still zero.
As for the lottery stocks, he didn't remember the winning lottery numbers at all, nor did he remember which stocks rose more strongly during the bull market. Wanting to get something for nothing was almost like a dream.
"Why!"
Perhaps because she was going through her third period at this time, Jiang Liunan's mood was very unstable. She finally couldn't help it, dragged Jiang Liu to her room, and then revealed her own experience.
"Why, I'm also you, but I can't be like you!"
Jiang Liunan felt that it was too unfair. If she had the same achievements as Jiang Liu in this world in her previous life, even if his father went bankrupt, he would definitely be able to turn the tide and make a comeback, instead of living in a small county town for the rest of his life.
"laugh-"
Jiang Liu smiled at the indignant Jiang Liunan.
"You said you were me?"
Jiang Liu pointed to himself, "Wu Niu, are you dreaming and haven't woken up yet?"
"I didn't have a dream. Why did I become Jiang Liunan this time? There is no such person in my world. Do you know how annoying it is to be a woman? 444 times, 444 menstrual periods."
After only three visits, Jiang Liunan was going crazy.
"Hahaha, you can't count like that."
Jiang Liu couldn't help laughing when he heard the fact that Yuanshen was suffering from menstrual holidays: "If you think so, every time you have a period, the shortest period is 3 or 4 days, and the long period is 6 or 7 days. Take the middle value as 5 days. There will be nearly six or seven years of menstruation in your life, which means that if your life expectancy is 70 years old, you will spend nearly one-seventh of your life during your period.”
Thinking about it this way, isn't it happier
Looking at the original face that looked like a concubine, Jiang Liu restrained his expression and said seriously.
"Not to mention how absurd what you said, even if what you said is true, you are me in another world, why you are mediocre all your life, but I can become famous, the foundation is the same, maybe it is because you and My difference!"
"You're more trash than me!"
Jiang Liu patted the original body on the shoulder, then left Jiang Liunan's room with a smile.
His performance made Jiang Liunan feel that the other party didn't believe what he said at all, but Jiang Liu's answer did cause a huge blow to her.
Because it is indeed the same foundation, is it really because she is more rubbish than the "self" in this world
For a moment, Jiang Liunan felt that her aunt was in even more pain.
