Time Traveling: I Engaged in City Defense in Ancient Times

Dayan Village and Xiaoyan Village have a total of not less than three hundred households. If any family gave birth to a brother, they either bought it or kept it as a dowry for the girl in the family, how many of them would be treated as adults.

Life can't go on anymore, a sheep, a few chickens, and even half a bag of millet can take my brother away.The kindness of poor people is the most straightforward, but it is also straightforward for poor people to oppress those who are weaker than him.

Brother Lin's father, Lin Zhiyuan, and his wife and younger sister settled in Xiaoyan Village 16 years ago. This immigrant family has some property. They bought [-] acres of land locally and built a large tile-roofed house with blue bricks.

People in the village have never seen Lin Zhiyuan's mother-in-law. The big girl and the young daughter-in-law are all staring at the new rich family in the village. .

Before the threshold of Lin Zhiyuan's house was stepped on by the matchmaker, he fell seriously ill and left the young brother Lin behind.

Only women and children were left in the Lin family, so how could the family property not be missed by others. Two years later, the glib Zhao Zhonghuai became the Lin family's son-in-law.

At the beginning, Zhao Zhonghuai took great care of Lin Zhiyuan's younger sister Lin Erniang, and it didn't take long for her true nature to be revealed.Zhao Zhonghuai is addicted to alcohol and gambling, and the family's land has been sold to less than three mu of land.

Several daughters born to Lin Erniang were also given away one after another. Zhao Sanni, who was raised the longest, was sent to the blacksmith's house as a child bride at the age of eight.

In his eyes, women are born to bear children, and if they can't bear children, they are guilty.But he, Zhao Zhonghuai, committed a crime. Three years ago, Lin Erniang gave birth to a boy, who grew up healthy and healthy to the age of two, and let him choke to death on a bite of sugar cake.

He blamed Lin Erniang and Lin Ge'er for all the crimes, and did not beat them to death.If the village chief hadn't stopped him, Zhao Zhonghuai would have sold Brother Lin at that time.

Although the Lin family is an outsider, what he did was too much. Not to mention that the son-in-law who came to visit ruined all the family property, he even sold the family's only seedling.If this kind of practice is spread, the people in their village will not even think about raising their heads. In the future, whoever's family girl will dare to marry in Xiaoyan Village.

Brother Lin was dragged away by Ji Cheng again, he had never had such contact with a foreigner, he was really not used to it.Ji Cheng's hands were so warm that he was sweating so much.

After returning home, Ji Cheng went straight to the kitchen. He turned his head and said to Brother Lin who hadn't calmed down yet: "I'll take a bath first, you can move around freely."

He understands bathing, freedom?What is free activity?

When Ji Cheng came back, he said he would not drive him away.The heart he had been carrying for the past few days finally fell into his stomach. He stood in the yard at a loss, not knowing what to do.

The boiling water in the pot is no longer hot, and I won't catch a cold in the middle of the day anyway.The big pot of water made him clean it up, and Ji Cheng felt that he could get down two catties of soil.The body is finally clean, but the hair is really speechless.

With his head stuck in the bucket, Ji Cheng misses shampoo and shower gel very much. There is no foam and no bathtub, and he can't sing "I love taking a bath and my skin is good", but what he misses most is the hair dryer.How long does it take for such waist-length hair to dry?

How about shaving your hair?It doesn't seem to work. In ancient times, only monks who were mentally ill and monks were bald.He is already out of line today, and if he does anything else, it will arouse suspicion.

After washing, Ji Cheng felt that he was a human being, and finally there was no buzzing of flies in his ears.He put on the clothes one by one according to the method in memory. Really, he really wanted to complain about the aesthetics of the original owner.

He didn't even look at it when he took it just now, the turquoise robe, this color is too coquettish and eye-catching, I'm really afraid that others won't see him.

The big bucket of clear water made him wash gray, and he carried the bucket very quickly and poured the water out of the yard, so that others would not laugh off his teeth when they saw it.

Lin Ge'er bowed his waist and pulled weeds in the yard. The weeds were more than half a meter high, so it took a lot of effort to pull them up.Beads of sweat dripped down his chin on the floor from his tiredness. Ji Cheng couldn't bear to see such a young child doing heavy work, so he hurriedly said, "Stop doing it, I'll do it tomorrow."

"It's okay, I'm not tired." It's just that it's a bit hot, and it's hard work in the farmhouse, Brother Lin continued to squeeze without raising his head.

Ji Cheng forced Brother Lin to stand up, and he said: "I really don't need you, I just washed it, and there is still water in the water tank, which is enough for you, you should go wash it soon."

"You smell it, you smell it."

It's smelly, is he all smelly?Brother Lin raised his arm and smelled himself. Last night he wiped his body with cold water. Could it be the smell of clothes?

Regardless of whether it is a girl or a brother, if you are told bluntly by a Chinese character, you are smelly, and you must not be able to stand it. Brother Lin is so ashamed that he can't wait to soak himself in the water tank right now. He throws down the grass in his hand and turns around. go to the kitchen.

Ji Cheng shouted behind him: "The water is hot, don't be afraid of Fei Chai."

After hearing his words, Brother Lin walked even faster.Doesn't this guy know how to keep his voice down?

It was only when Brother Lin was about to finish washing that he realized that he had no change of clothes at all.What should I do, wear this suit again?He didn't feel the clothes on his body all the time, but now that he washed them himself, the smell of the clothes was really unbearable.

He sat on a low kitchen stool, the hair on his head almost dry, and he couldn't figure out what to do.He and Ji Cheng are now a nominal couple, and to put it bluntly, Ji Cheng doesn't care about him and is willing to take him in.

If Ji Cheng knew that his uncle had already taken a tael of silver from Zhao Ergen to buy his first night, would he still be able to take him in?

The hope that had been ignited not long ago was shattered again, and Geer Lin drew circles on his knees in frustration.

Dududu, Ji Cheng's voice came through the door, startling Lin Geer who was in deep thought, "Xiao Linzi, don't you have a change of clothes?"

Lin Ge'er subconsciously covered his chest with his clothes. After realizing that the person at the door had no intention of coming out, he was still a little nervous. After all, the crack on the door panel was wider than his fingers.

"Then I put the clothes at the door," Ji Cheng said, "You take it yourself, just clean it, and after washing for a while, your hair will be soaked."

... Mouth is really broken.

As the footsteps faded away, Brother Lin stretched out his white and tender arms, and quietly dragged the clothes into the door with a whoosh.With such a simple movement, his heart beat so fast that it seemed as if it was going to pop out of his chest.

Ji Cheng, who was tidying up the weeds in the yard, happened to see this scene.

Hey, this kid is quite interesting.

Before Geer Lin came out of the kitchen, Ji Cheng wisely went to the backyard.

The backyard can be much larger than the front yard, about an acre of land, also full of weeds.Because his house is the last row of the village, there is a small mountain behind the original owner's house.

There is a jujube tree beside the yard, which is full of fruit.The trunk was very thick, it looked like it was old, Ji Cheng climbed up the shortest trunk, shook the jujube vigorously as if it was raining, and it fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

He tasted a sweet and sour one, it was the best snack for Xiao Lin.After dawdling like this for a long time, other people have already started cooking.

Farmers have two meals, get up early to work and eat the first meal when they go home when the sun is hot, and eat the second meal when the sun is about to set, so that they can work until dark while the sun is not shining.

He pocketed the jujubes in his lapel, and walked happily into the house, Geer Lin had already arranged the dinner quickly.

Ji Cheng, who has eaten a few dates since yesterday, is too hungry.He rushed to the dinner table excitedly, but the things on the table made him dumbfounded.

There was a large bowl of clear wild vegetable soup with a few egg flowers floating on it. He glanced at Brother Lin and asked in disbelief, "Is this what you want to eat tonight?"

This is not soup, isn't this just pot water?

Seeing his extremely disgusted expression, Brother Lin sighed softly, "I ate in the kitchen just now, this is for you."

Brother Lin was holding wild eggs that were not much bigger than quail eggs, and the kid said he ate them.Ji Cheng didn't believe it at all, as long as there was food at home, it was impossible for him to bring it up.

"Wild eggs, where did they come from?" Ji Cheng nestled the wild eggs in his hands, the two small ones were still warm.

"When I went up the mountain to collect firewood in the morning, I found six of them." Brother Lin was also very hungry, and he ate half of Tian Shufen's leftover pancakes in the morning.

Originally, he made a lot of breakfast, but Tian Shufen insisted that they could not eat until his son was full.That Jitang was so edible, the pigs in the village were not as edible as him.

There was only half of a large pot of porridge and pancakes left at his place. Originally, these few eggs were for him to secretly eat in the middle of the night while the two of them were asleep.

Of the six wild eggs, four were broken into the soup, and he kept two for himself.

Seeing Brother Lin's eyes staring at the soup bowl, Ji Cheng sat down and said, "Let's eat first, we'll talk after we're done."

The original owner was not around at all, and the house would cry when the mice came.There must be no food in the house.After Tian Shufen left, she would definitely not leave a single grain of rice for them.

Ji Cheng doesn't have any money on him now, he really has a big head.

He was also poor in his previous life, but he was never as poor as he is now.

This pot of water, no, this wild vegetable soup made by Geer Lin is very light and delicious, but unfortunately there is no other flavor except light.This thing is gone after two soaks of urine, how can it be full.

A large bowl of wild vegetable soup was quickly consumed, and Ji Cheng was not polite, and the two of them shared half of each other.

After eating what could be called dinner, the two of them had nothing to do.

Brother Lin went to the kitchen and didn't know what he was busy with, so he didn't ask.

Ji Cheng squatted on the threshold of the gate, thinking wildly, and he didn't bother to care about the broken doors on both sides. When he was at the dinner table just now, he heard from Geer Lin that there were many prey on this mountain. Some people had seen tigers in the early years.He plans to get up early tomorrow and go up the mountain to have a look, try his luck, it is better to be killed by a tiger than to starve to death.

If you can't get anything else, you can get two pheasants to eat.

Countless plans to make a fortune flashed through his mind, and just as he was lost in thought, he was pulled back from his thoughts.

"Brother Ah Cheng," Yang Huai greeted him from a distance with a small frame on his shoulders.

Ji Cheng's eyes are so sharp, his intuition told him that there must be something to eat in that basket, he stood up and patted the ashes on his trousers, his desire for food in the basket did not show on his face at all, he said: "Why are you here?" , how is your mother?"

"According to what you taught me, mother believed it," Yang Huai told his mother according to what Ji Cheng taught, that his brother Yang Yong went to run a business with a caravan in the city.

His silly mother actually happily believed it, and even ate two extra bowls for today's dinner.He guessed that Ji Cheng's family didn't have much to eat, so he specially made more millet pancakes for dinner, and while making them, he was still thinking about how he might dislike Ji Cheng's usual picky manner.

"The family baked some more cakes, don't dislike them," said Ji Cheng, who took the basket in Yang Huai's hand before he handed it out.

"You're so polite." In the small basket, there are not only pancakes but also a large bowl of goat's milk, which is a good thing.Lin Ge'er's hair is withered and yellow, and his face is also pale due to malnutrition. This goat's milk is the best for the child's health.
