With two cups of milk powder a day, three meals of old hen soup, big bone soup and minced meat rice porridge, Wu Zhuoya racked her brains and tried her best to get nutritious things for He Tiantian.
The military factory has also verified that the information sent by He Tiantian is detailed, complete and valid, which has made a great contribution!
At the strong request of Chief Engineer Xu and several other informed engineers, more awards for Comrade He Tiantian began to be implemented.
"Tiantian, look, this is chocolate. I heard it is high in calories and very nutritious!"
Wu Zhuoya happily took out everything from her net bag and placed it in front of He Tiantian, "There is also this walnut, I heard it was shipped from the Northeast, it is very good for the brain!"
"Oh, and here's the beef jerky, milk slices and candies, they're all shipped from the grassland!"
There are a lot of things, and they are all high-calorie foods that future generations of slimming girls will not dare to touch even if they starve to death.
However, these were very rare nutritional products in China in the 1950s and 1960s.
He Tiantian broke off a piece of chocolate, hmm, it tastes so rich.
It's not a cocoa butter substitute, but very pure chocolate, slightly bitter, but so mellow.
The key is that this thing is high in calories. If He Tiantian eats a piece, it feels like his brain can move again.
"...Mom, you, you should take a bite too!"
He Tiantian squinted her eyes with satisfaction, opened her eyes, saw Wu Zhuoya's loving look, and deliberately made a little bit of pain.
He broke off a piece of chocolate and brought it to Wu Zhuoya's mouth.
"I won't eat it, mom doesn't like chocolate!"
Wu Zhuoya is someone who has seen good things. Of course she knows the taste of chocolate, but she also knows the value of this kind of thing.
Now that their country is blocked by Western countries, the only big brother has also begun to exercise hegemony, forcing China to have conflicts with the big brother.
China's situation is extremely difficult.
Exports like these are very rare.
It is estimated that the drawings sent by Tiantian this time solved the big problem. The logistics department happened to have channels, so they got some chocolate.
Old people like them are reluctant to touch such rare foreign gadgets. Tiantian can copy the drawings, whether she memorizes them secretly or has other methods.
But there was one thing. The top brass of the military factory, including He Yaohua and Chief Engineer Xu, all had a hunch: He Tiantian's brain was very valuable.
And such a precious treasure must be protected.
Isn't it just to get more nutritious and good things, isn't it just to supplement the children's brains? Compared with that piece of information, these are nothing at all.
Therefore, Wu Zhuoya knew very well that the rewards given out by the factory were all for her little girl's brain.
Even if this were not the case, as a mother, she would not compete with her daughter for food.
"Oh, then I'll eat it!"
He Tiantian seemed to believe her mother's words that she "didn't like eating" and stuffed the chocolate into her mouth.
If it were in the past, she would be so greedy and possessive without considering her parents at all, people would think that she is ignorant and unfilial.
But knowing that He Tiantian's malnutrition was due to overuse of her brain, and seeing her big, clear and ignorant eyes, Wu Zhuoya felt that her daughter might really not understand the ways of the world.
She is just too simple, her heart is extremely pure, and she doesn't have so many twists and turns.
Besides, geniuses always have some quirks of one kind or another.
Her Tiantian just loves to eat. This is a very normal hobby, right
Thinking of the word "genius", Wu Zhuoya suddenly thought of business.
He Tiantian has been awake for a week, and Wu Zhuoya also tried every means to feed her for seven days.
He Tiantian's face has become rosy, and her little face and arms have become a little fleshy.
In addition, the doctor gave He Tiantian a comprehensive examination and found that there were no problems with the organs, bones, blood, etc.
It's malnutrition.
Now that he has supplemented his nutrition, He Tiantian's condition is much better.
Only then did Wu Zhuoya dare to ask: "... Tiantian, those materials are the drawings in your room before you fell into coma—"
After He Tiantian finished eating a piece of chocolate, he tore open a small package of beef jerky and bit into it vigorously.
When she heard her mother's question, she chewed hard and casually replied, "I wrote it!"
Wu Zhuoya had already guessed the answer, but she was still a little excited to hear the confirmation from He Tiantian.
However, more questions also need to be answered, "How do you know this? Didn't you just go to elementary school for a few years?"
After saying this, Wu Zhuoya was afraid of hurting her daughter's self-esteem, so she quickly explained, "These are very professional techniques. Even a college graduate like your brother doesn't understand them very well!"
"Tiantian, do you understand this?"
He Tiantian shook her head and said confidently: "I don't understand. I just saw Puslov hiding all these information mysteriously, and I thought that these must be very important."
"I just glanced at it casually, but at that time the experts were teaching the engineers in our factory seriously, so I didn't want to take it out."
"That same day, when we came back from the hospital, we heard from our neighbors that the experts had left and the project was halfway through. Without the data, the remaining work would not be carried out at all!"
"So, I thought about writing down everything I remembered in my mind!"
Wu Zhuoya was even more confused. She thought for a while and straightened her thoughts.
Then, he asked tentatively, "Tiantian, you mean, you don't understand the content of those materials at all, you, you just follow the gourd?"
"I'm not just copying the gourd, but I'm re-recording the information collected by Puslov and his teacher!"
He Tiantian corrected, she was not imitating, but directly copying.
"Re-record? You, you mean you can write down everything you see? Tiantian, can you have a photographic memory?"
Wu Zhuoya asked excitedly.
"I don't know what photographic memory means. Anyway, I can remember everything I've seen!"
After He Tiantian finished chewing a piece of beef jerky, she felt a little thirsty and looked around for water.
Seeing this, Wu Zhuoya quickly made a bowl of brown sugar water for her daughter.
He Tiantian: ...If in future generations, He Tiantian would not dare to do this even if she was beaten to death.
All the water you drink is sugar water, which is the way to get fat.
However, in this era of scarce supplies, He Tiantian has lost her golden finger again. She really needs to supplement a lot of high-calorie, high-protein, and high-nutrition foods.
Otherwise, her body would be malnourished, bald, nosebleed, lack of energy and blood, skinny, and her aunt would run away... none of this would be a problem.
And if she eats freely, no matter how much she eats, even if she eats lard all the time, it can only sustain mental exertion and cannot be converted into fat to be accumulated in the body.
Eat too much and not gain weight!
Hey, it’s also a golden finger.
This is somewhat of a comfort to He Tiantian who often suffers nosebleeds and faints.
"Tiantian, how come you only went to elementary school for a few years?"
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Zhuoya still asked this question.
With such a skill of photographic memory, Tiantian is a genius.
With such a powerful brain, wouldn’t it be very easy to go to school
Wu Zhuoya asked this, not because she suspected that He Tiantian's adoptive parents had treated her badly.
When they found He Tiantian, He Yaohua and Wu Zhuoya carefully investigated the adoptive parents' family.
I found that this family was quite kind and indeed regarded He Tiantian as my own daughter.
However, the general environment in rural areas favors sons over daughters, and the family's own conditions are not good.
He Tiantian is so smart but does not continue to go to school. Is it because objective conditions do not allow it
He Tiantian said frankly, "I don't want to read it myself."
She didn't lie. The original owner was not a child who loved learning.
It was indeed difficult to support her parents. When her grandfather was still alive, he could secretly provide some extra money and insisted on sending He Tiantian to study.
By the time of liberation, He Tiantian was exactly eight years old and had already attended a private school for two years and then a new primary school for two years.
His grandfather died of a sudden illness. Without his grandfather's subsidy, He Tiantian himself was not very active, so his adoptive parents took advantage of the situation and made He Tiantian drop out of school.
Of course, He Tiantian couldn't tell the truth. She found the perfect reason for the original owner's mediocrity: "When I read a book, I think about many things in my mind. I have headaches, nosebleeds, and hair loss!"
“I don’t always have enough to eat at home, so I don’t want to study!”
He Tiantian said lightly, not regretting that she could not study.
She seemed to be simply stating a fact.
Wu Zhuoya felt sour in her heart when she heard this. The child was too smart, but if he couldn't keep up with nutrition, he would feel uncomfortable.
Children who are young and don't understand these things think that studying = physical discomfort. Under the instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, they naturally don't want to study anymore.
Her Tiantian is a delayed talent.
"Tiantian, it's all your parents' fault. I wish I had found you earlier!"
Wu Zhuoya was born in a family of intellectuals, so she naturally knew the importance of education and training for a child.
We can't say that He Tiantian's adoptive parents are not good. They didn't understand it themselves and didn't realize He Tiantian's talents and problems at all.
Coupled with various objective reasons, He Tiantian was delayed like this.
It was this time that the experts suddenly evacuated. Tiantian wanted to help the factory, and then she showed her incredible talent.
Wait, that's not right. If He Tiantian had a photographic memory, why didn't she show it all the time after she came to the He family
"But Tiantian, why didn't you tell your parents about your situation after you came back with your father?"
"Prefer not to say!"
He Tiantian seemed to have thought of something unpleasant, pursed her lips, and suddenly said: "On May 21, 1942, ghosts went to the village to kill people and set fire to the village. The village chief's uncle died, and Uncle Zhuzhu and Mrs. Honghua were arrested. gone!"
"On September 14, 1942, some ghosts went to the fort next door to raid and killed Aunt Cuihua and Grandpa Xiaobao..."
“On November 8, 1947, a 17-man Fruit Party troops passed by the village and killed the district chief’s grandfather. They also took away 300 kilograms of grain and five hens, which were the village’s winter grain reserves! "
"January 1949..."
He Tiantian transformed into an emotionless announcer and recounted in great detail the tragedy she had witnessed.
At first, Wu Zhuoya didn't understand what He Tiantian meant.
But as she listened, she seemed to understand.
Just listen to He Tiantian's last words: "... I have a very good memory. I remember everything clearly, good and bad!"
"… "it is as expected!
Everyone thinks that "photographic memory" is a rare gift, but who would have thought that having a good memory can also be a kind of torture for a person.
Because for people, sometimes forgetting is a kind of self-healing and self-comfort.
If you forget bad things or painful experiences, you will be relieved.
Just like those bloody and brutal scenes mentioned by He Tiantian, for a child of one or two years old, they are very scary.
If she were an ordinary child, she would not have such an early memory. Even if she saw it, she would forget it when she grows up.
But He Tiantian is different. She has a photographic memory. Regardless of whether she can understand it or not, as long as she sees the scene, she will write it down very clearly and profoundly.
Such bad memories fill the brain, and for a child, it is nothing less than torture over and over again.
The child was so young and she didn't know how to adjust herself. She could only try not to think about it and take the initiative to close her brain.
That's why He Tiantian didn't want to study. After she returned to the He family, she rarely talked about the past.
She didn't even want to use her brain, she just ate, drank, and played like a silly child.
And the food she usually eats is probably only enough to maintain the physical energy consumption of her blocked brain.
The withdrawal of the Soviet experts seemed to be a key, opening the door of He Tiantian's closed memory, allowing her to restart her super-powerful brain.
However, the mental exertion was too great, and her body was too weak, so she had nosebleeds and fell into a coma.
"Tiantian, my poor daughter!"
The more Wu Zhuoya thought about it, the more she felt pitiful for the child. She was like an ignorant child guarding a treasure.
Those treasures would certainly bring her endless benefits, but they would also hurt her.
At least, before she knew how to control it, an overly powerful brain would be a burden to her.
"Fortunately, although I am sick this time, I have also found a way to control my brain!"
He Tiantian was afraid of scaring Wu Zhuoya and making her mother feel distressed, so she was not allowed to use her brain again.
Then wouldn't the settings of her "humanoid computer" be in vain!
He Tiantian still wants to continue to contribute to the construction of the motherland.
"Oh? Have you thought of a way?" Wu Zhuoya was a little surprised.
If she could use her brain to develop military factories and build the country without hurting He Tiantian, Wu Zhuoya, as a loyal Red Party soldier, would be very happy.
"Yes, didn't I tell you last time? Get me some gloves and a pair of sunglasses!"
He Tiantian said and gestured, "When I put on gloves, I can minimize my contact with other objects. Only information about gloves comes to my mind."
"With sunglasses, I won't see too many colors and objects, so my eyes can rest as much as possible."
"Mom, you don't even know that when I see the name of the medicine on the bottle, I will have its ingredient list in my mind."
"When I see some data in my sister's textbook, my brain will automatically calculate it. It's really uncomfortable. The key is that if I think too much, I will be hungry!"
