In an old but neat courtyard, a young man raised his head, squinted, looked at the chirping birds on the trees in the courtyard, and sighed faintly: "What a daddy." ”"Xiao'er, is that you?"
a crisp voice came from the west wing."
Why are you up, are you better" The young man raised his hand, rubbed his eyebrows, squeezed out a smile, and raised his voice in response: "Mother, I'm better." ”"This is great, it seems that Granny Chu is still very effective, just once.Xiao'er, you can catch a chicken and thank her later.Go and see Tu Niu'er again, you have been sick for the past two days, he is so frightened that he didn't dare to enter the door a few times. ”"Oh."
The young man answered, and once again showed a helpless wry smile, and the appearance of an old woman and a teenager came to mind.The old woman has a wrinkled face, eyebrows and lips, and a philistine face.The young man has a tiger head and a tiger brain, a strong body, and a little cunning in his honesty.These were the two people who were the clearest in his remaining memories, except for his mother, who was weaving in the western chamber: one was the witch who called his soul, whom he had just met once yesterday; One is his friend who has been playing from play to big, a big name and a cow.As the name suggests, man has the strength of an ox."
He" himself is called Liang Xiao, who was originally just an ordinary Han boy, but now he has an extra soul two thousand years later.It's been a few days, and Liang Xiao hasn't figured out how such a bloody thing could happen.I just yearn for the Han Dynasty, and I have studied the history of the Han Dynasty a little, but I never thought of traveling to the Han Dynasty.He originally wanted to lie down for another two days to slow down and adapt to the new environment, but when he heard that he was going to send a chicken to Granny Chu's soul once, he couldn't lie down.For this family, a chicken is not a small number, there are only five chickens in their family, and all of them are laying hens, which are specially raised by the mother in order to supplement his nutrition.Two or three poached eggs a day gave him a tall and strong physique that was still considered tall and strong among his peers.Now, in his hand he was holding a stoneware bowl with two poached eggs lying in the bowl.As soon as he saw the yellow oil, he felt sick to his stomach.As a person who is accustomed to the concept of green nutrition, he has a very poor impression of this poached egg, and he really has no appetite.Liang Xiao thought about it and walked into the west wing with a bowl.There is a loom by the window in the west wing, and "his" mother Liang Yuan is sitting behind the loom, busy with her hands and feet.Hearing his footsteps, Liang Yuan glanced up at him and continued to be busy."
I'm done eating" "Mother, you can eat." ”Liang Xiao walked up to Liang Yuan, held down the loom, and handed the bowl to her.Liang Yuan couldn't help but be a little curious when she saw the untouched poached eggs in the bowl."
Why didn't you eat it" "Mother, I'm already well, you can eat." ”Liang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled again: "Silly boy, this is made for you by your mother, how can your mother eat it."
Hurry up and get rid of it, don't get the brocade dirty.I have to weave this brocade out quickly, the Ding family has already urged it twice, and it is not possible to delay the construction period. ”"It's because my mother is in a hurry that I let you eat it."
Liang Xiao insisted: "Mother is the pillar of the family, if you are tired, who will support this family" Liang Xiao blinked, and seemed to feel reasonable.But she still didn't take the bowl."
Xiao'er, your mother has received your heart, but you should eat this chicken.Now it is my mother who supports the family, but in the future, I will rely on you.If you don't have a good body, how can you make meritorious contributions to the army in the future, and be a marquis and worship a general. ”"Feng Hou Bai General" Liang Xiao's eyes widened, and he was shocked.My mother, alas, your expectations are too high, and my son can't do it.Liang Xiao pinched Liang Xiao's face affectionately."
Of course, my son was born to be a good material for leading troops to fight, and in the future, he will be a meritorious servant, and his children and grandchildren will be rich, and his mother will be blessed.""
But, Mother, our family" Liang Xiao stopped talking.As far as he knew, being an official in the Han Dynasty was not an easy task.At this time, there was no imperial examination, and officials either relied on Zuyin or recommendation.With the situation of the Liang family, it seems that they can't count on it."
I'm worried that the family is not enough" Liang Yuan seemed to guess her son's thoughts."
You don't have to worry about this, there are still a few years before your Fu nationality, my mother will suffer a little hard, weave more brocade, and she will definitely be able to save enough when the time comes."
Liang Xiao smiled bitterly.Although he didn't know where his mother's confidence came from, she must have thought about it simply.As far as he knew, the Han Dynasty practiced the inspection system, which is often referred to as filial piety.Filial piety, filial piety and honest officials, there are only one or two people in a county every year, which is more difficult than recommending a college student, where will it be the turn of a poor boy like him.Family income is only the basic condition for entering the bureaucracy, and it does not mean that there is a family to enter the official, not to mention that there is a world of difference between entering the official and the feudal marquis.The old lady obviously took this matter too simply, thinking that hard work can really get rich, and it is naïve to enter the office if she meets the standard of family income.He stood up."
Mother, I'll go to Granny Xie Chu, you eat the eggs and chickens, and the task of making a fortune depends on you."
Without waiting for Liang Yuan to speak, he slipped out, he really couldn't swallow the poached eggs in the puddles, so he could only go as the best policy."
Hey, this kid" Liang Yuan wanted to stop Liang Xiao, but seeing that Liang Xiao was gone, she had to give up.She looked at the eggs in the bowl, shook her head, and smiled with relief."
This child has grown up and knows filial piety to his mother."
Liang Xiao grabbed a chicken, went out, and went straight to Granny Chu's house.Granny Chu and the Liang family are not in the same room, Liang Xiao went out of the house, and he had to go out of the house.He had often seen such descriptions in the materials before, but now that he saw the high inner walls on both sides of the road, he was still emotional.If he remembers it well, this Guangling City is the Yangzhou City of the later "Fireworks March Down Yangzhou".Unlike his impression of a city full of commercial districts, the market was separated from the residential area, with neat walls along the streets, no shops, and no pedestrians.It is the time of spring ploughing, most of the adults go out of the city to farm, even if they are underage children, they will go to the field together, do some farm work as much as they can, the farm life is tense, and they can't afford to raise idlers, only rogue teenagers like Liang Xiao will do nothing and wander around.The Liang family has no land, because the Liang family is a single-parent family and has no strong labor.Liang Xiao's mother, Liang Yuan, is good at weaving brocade, but she is not good at farming, so she has never occupied the field and only makes a living by weaving brocade.This is probably the reason why she wants Liang Xiao to be an official, and she can't expect her son to inherit the brocade craft, which is a woman's work.However, according to Liang Xiao's remaining memories, "he" is not a safflower boy, to put it more directly, the real Liang Xiao is a scoundrel, stealing chickens and dogs is pediatric for him, and he has not done any less immoral things such as kicking the widow's door and digging up the grave.When he seized the house, he was robbing the tomb, and he didn't know what was going on, so he fainted, and when he woke up, he became the current Liang Xiao.He was carried back by Tuniu'er from Jinkui Mountain in the western suburbs, which is the best place for feng shui in Guangling County, and has the most tombs.It's just that Tu Niu'er didn't tell Liang Yuan about this, and Liang Yuan probably didn't know that he was a gangster, and he still thought he was a good baby.Apparently, he had a mother who doted on him.Liang Xiao went to Granny Chu's house, but Granny Chu was not at home, the door was locked, and she didn't know where to cheat money.Liang Xiao carried the chicken, followed the route in his memory, groped his way to the west, and prepared to go out of the city to the western suburbs.The west of the city is where the scoundrels are concentrated, and if he guesses correctly, there is a good chance that Tuniu'er will be there to hang out.Out of the city, occasionally looking up, Liang Xiao was stunned for a moment, and the feeling of being in another world suddenly came to his heart.In front of me is an ocean, boundless water, stretching all the way to the horizon.The reeds at the water's edge, the sails on the water surface are like weaving, and the scenery of Zeguo is a group."
This is the Yangtze River."
Liang Xiao was stunned for a long time before he slowly reacted, and truly realized that he was now in Guangling City in the Han Dynasty, not Yangzhou City in the 21st century.The mighty Yangtze River goes straight to the city, and the prosperous city of later generations does not even have a shadow, only a wide body of water, and I don't know when it will slowly surface.Liang Xiao walked to the water's edge, overlooking the Yangtze River, and wanted to see the Beigu Mountain opposite.It's a pity that he didn't see anything, just like the brilliant future that his mother Liang Yuan was looking forward to, there was no shadow at all."
I'm dizzy, and the future is bleak."
Liang Xiao involuntarily dragged a sentence: "Thinking of the world and the world, how can you not cry." ”"Young man, look at your talent, you are born out of phase, why are you so unambitious.Tsk, it's a pity for this good skin. ”A hoarse voice came from behind him, and Liang Xiao looked back to see that it was a prisoner in a half-worn ochre robe, with a scruffy beard, a thin face, and blind in one eye, leaving only one right eye.However, the only remaining right eye was brilliant and aggressive, and Liang Xiao couldn't help but feel a chill when he saw it."
You are" "I'm just a prisoner, a cripple.However, I don't like you to be so unambitious, so I can't help but say a few words. ”The prisoner looked him up and down, and suddenly frowned: "Where are you from, and what is your name" Liang Xiao was also a little annoyed, and a wave of anger welled up in his bones, and even he couldn't figure out where this anger came from."
Pingshui meet, why should I tell you your name, look at you like this, you don't look like a good person, don't just escaped from prison" The prisoner was stunned, but he was not angry, he laughed and limped away."
Interesting, I'm looking away, it turns out that I'm still a tempered person.Young people, do it yourself, don't let down your talents. ”Liang Xiao was inexplicable.What talent do I have He just said that I am a talent, born with a different appearance, am I the legendary talent, no wonder the old lady is so confident, it turns out that I am indeed not ordinary, even this prisoner can see it.Liang Xiao walked to the water's edge, squatted down, and took a self-portrait by the water.After watching it for a long time, he didn't see anything different from him, although his facial features were correct, he couldn't be regarded as a talent.Alas, he must have been afraid that I would beat him, so he deliberately said good things to deceive me, so as to take the opportunity to slip away.Don't let me see you next time, or I'll make you look good.Liang Xiao shook his fist at the water, trying his best to make a fierce appearance.However, he looked at it again and again, and still felt that his essence was not bad, and he should belong to the category that could still be educated well.
