"Um...please help me pull out the bamboo on both sides first. I seem to be stuck."

Zhong Cheng was not idle on this trip. Not only was he holding a large bundle of bamboo shoots in his hand, but the basket on his back was also filled to the brim.

Qin Nan was very satisfied with this aspect of his work. This man was indeed a good worker.

"troublesome."

Qi Nan was reluctant on the surface, but her hands moved very quickly. She broke the bamboos that were blocking the basket outwards. Zhong Cheng felt his back loosen in an instant, and immediately walked to the open space outside. He took everything off his hands and back.

After he and Qi Nan peeled the bamboo shoots together, they were just as they had come, with him walking in front carrying a basket and firewood, and Qi Nan walking behind him.

The two kept a close distance, but the frequency of their steps was surprisingly consistent. Under the sunlight, their shadows were standing side by side.

"Let's go somewhere together later. Let's leave the bamboo shoots at Uncle Li's house first." Zhong Cheng suddenly turned to Qinan and suggested.

"Go for what?"

Qi Nan was living alone now, and there was nothing important to do, but she had to figure out Zhong Cheng's purpose before she decided whether to go.

"I want to go fishing by the river at the end of the village, and then set up a stone stove there and grill the fish myself."

Afraid that Qinan would have any concerns, he told what he had observed before. “I have squatted several times and found that as soon as the sun goes down, almost no one goes to the river.

Think about it, if we lit a bonfire there, ate grilled fish together, put a jar of wine on the stone, and paired it with some fried peanuts, let alone how comfortable it would be.

After eating and drinking, lie down on the rocks and enjoy the wind while watching the stars in the sky. Then the day will end beautifully. "

Zhong Cheng's proposal also deeply attracted Qinan.

She had never enjoyed this kind of fun before, and now she really yearned for it.

But what this guy described seems a bit modern.

Could it be that he also traveled through time?

Qi Nan's heart pounded and he wanted to test it out.

If she really had the same origin as hers, then she would have met a fellow villager, and she would have a companion in this other world in the future.

If not, then she has no worries. He doesn’t understand anyway?

"Silly boss, will you agree or not?"

"Don't worry." Qinan was thinking about which questions to ask.

"How can I not be in a hurry? I am in a hurry. The sun is going to set soon. I don't even plan to cook today. I'm just going to have a meal of grilled fish by the river."

Zhong Cheng had been planning this for a long time. When he thought about not being able to eat grilled fish today, he scratched his heart and felt very uncomfortable.

"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet. Answer me a few questions honestly. I'll decide whether to go or not after you answer them."

"Say it."

Qin Nan tentatively asked the first question. "There is a dragon in the far east. What is its name?"

This question tests whether Zhong Cheng is from the same country as her.

Zhong Cheng felt a little strange after hearing this, "Dragon? Dragons can only be used by the emperor, right? I know Qinglong, but I don't know if the dragon in the east you are talking about is Qinglong."

"No, let's put this aside for now, and then you can answer my second question, which two things are most distributed on the earth."

Zhong Cheng still looked confused.

"What is the earth? Is it the kind of Cuju that children play?

The two most distributed things are the bamboo strips and the gaps between them. "

The test is over. If you don't know the earth, then he probably didn't travel through time. He can't be some alien, or a time traveler from the Republic of China, or an earlier era, or something.

Maybe she was overthinking it. He was just an indigenous resident of the Daqi Kingdom with advanced consciousness.

The ancients were not stupid, they were just happy to focus on eating, drinking and having fun. It is not surprising that they would think of eating grilled fish and watching the stars.

Knew it! Romance is all left over from the ancients.

"It's okay. I agreed. We put the bamboo shoots back and then went to the river to catch fish and grill them."

"Don't be impatient." Now it was Zhong Cheng's turn to be curious. "What's the name of the dragon in the east you mentioned? I really want to know."

"Its name is - China!"

"China, it has a nice name. This dragon must be very powerful. It's a pity that I have never seen it."

At the entrance of Lushui Village, a man with a crooked hair and disheveled clothes was squatting in the river and drinking water.

"Damn the Qi family, why do you have to live in a shabby place like Lushui Village? When I find you, I will show you how awesome you are."

This person is none other than Wang Tiedan who sneaked out of his home.

A few days ago, because of the marriage, the family spent 5 taels of silver, and everyone was unhappy.

Especially his mother, who would explode at 1 o'clock. She would either catch him and scold him or quarrel with his father.

What made him even more angry was that he met the old woman Qi again in the town.

He heard her say with his own ears that the Wang family was easy to deceive. If she got 5 taels this time, she would get 1 taels next time. Anyway, she didn't care about the contract. She wasn't even illiterate. The fingerprint she pressed said it was Just be coerced by the Wang family.

She also wants to use their family's money to build a house in the town. In the future, the money for her grandson's wife will come from the Wang family.

This is exactly a blood-sucking bedbug.

Wang Tiedan thought he was already the little bully in Qingli Town, but he didn't expect to meet someone a hundred times more shameless than him.

Of course he couldn't bear it and went straight up to fight with the Qi family members.

Qi Nai is a person who becomes strong when encountering weakness and becomes weak when encountering strength. Together with Qi Chengzong, they cannot defeat Wang Tiedan.

Wang Tiedan asked them to get back the 5 taels of silver that his family had given them.

But they hesitated and refused, and Wang Tiedan was so angry that he punched them hard, completely defeating them.

In the end, Qi Nai diverted the trouble eastward with snot and tears. She said that all the money she took back was taken away by her eldest granddaughter.

The engagement incident was also due to her capriciousness, and she had evil intentions, thinking about sucking the blood of the Wang family.

She said that she was just a poor little old lady who could only count on her children for everything.

It was her eldest granddaughter's idea to come to the Wang family to ask for money. Now the money has been taken by her eldest granddaughter. If Wang Tiedan beats her, her eldest granddaughter will come to the door of Wang's house to make trouble.

Wang Tiedan didn't even bother to fight with an old man.

After asking them for the address of Luchui Village, he quickly rented a carriage and prepared to go and take care of Qinan himself.

It's just that his plan to clean up people was hindered just at the beginning.

It was already afternoon at that time, and no driver was willing to take the order because he didn't want to have to travel through the mountains at night on the way back.
