Traveling through ancient times to survive

After the Chinese New Year, the relationship between the two families became closer, and the three Zhao Qing siblings were often seen running back and forth between the two courtyards.

After the sumptuous family reunion dinner, the Li family’s father and son could no longer tolerate their own crude cooking skills and wanted to buy a jar of pickles to go with the meal.

Zhao Chengchuan waved his hand and gave away two jars without accepting any money.

After the natural disaster, food became more and more precious. The Li family was unwilling to take advantage of the situation and wanted to teach Zhao Qing's family to read.

Teaching one is teaching, teaching three is also teaching, Li Heng simply asked Zhao Qing and his two siblings to go and learn.

In order to facilitate travel, Zhao Deyan paved a path between the two houses with wooden planks and fixed the position with ropes.

The three of them then lived a regular school life. Li Heng discovered that Zhao Qing learned calligraphy very quickly and had a photographic memory. His learning talent was almost the same as his, which made Li Heng feel more and more sorry.

If you are a man, why worry about not being able to achieve success?

Within a few days, Zhao Qing had finished learning "Three Hundred Thousand", and this was when Zhao Qing intentionally controlled his learning progress.

The student was extremely talented, and Li Heng, as a teacher, became more and more excited. He began to teach the contents of the Four Books and Five Classics, but Zhao Qing's rapid learning speed came to a halt. She still recited very quickly, but when it came to explaining the deep meaning of the sentence, it was completely irrelevant and completely different from the real meaning.

For example, "While your parents are still alive, do not travel far away, and if you do travel, you must have a plan."

Zhao Qing: "Don't be afraid if your parents try to stop you from going out. There must be a way to escape."

Li Heng:?

For example, "Time flies like an arrow, never stopping day or night."

Zhao Qing: "The number of people who died is as numerous as the water in the river. They die every day and every night."

Li Heng: ? ?

For example, "If I hear the truth in the morning, I can die in the evening."

Zhao Qing: "I know the way to your house in the morning, and you can wait for death in the evening."

Li Heng:? ? ?

The gentle mask on Li Heng's face cracked, and his emotions fluctuated violently. Zhao Qing lowered his head and shrank like a quail, breathing lightly, for fear of disturbing Li Heng.

Li Heng took a few deep breaths, then forced a fake smile: "Sister Zhao Qing has unique insights, I am not as good as her."

Zhao Qing hesitated and said, "...You flatter me?"

Li Heng waved his hands: "No, no, no, you are simply a genius! I am not very knowledgeable, how can I be qualified to teach you."

"Are you saying I don't have to come anymore?"

Li Heng nodded and smiled: "Yes."

Zhao Qing said seriously: "Thank you for your careful teaching, I will spread your good name in the future."

Li Heng was horrified: "Don't do that!"

Zhao Qing snorted and laughed. If you think I'm embarrassing, just say it directly. Why beat around the bush?

With the arrival of spring, the temperature has risen a little. Although it is still very cold, many people have started sitting on the rooftops, chatting with their neighbors at the top of their lungs.

Villager A: "When will the snow melt in this horrible weather? It's so cold and I've run out of firewood at home."

Neighbor B: "Yes, yes, warm up quickly!"

Villager C joined the group chat: "Look, the snow outside is almost reaching the roof. If it gets warmer, there might be a flood."

Villager B: "Hey, sister, you are right. If all this snow melts at once, there will be a flood. We have had enough of this shitty life!"

Villager C: “Who isn’t?”

Villager A brought the topic back to the topic: "Let's not talk about far away things. Does anyone have extra firewood? Can you give some to my family? I'm freezing."

Villager C: "It's been three months, and we're running out of firewood for cooking. You still want to warm yourself by the fire? You're dreaming. Who wouldn't be holding on?"

Villager Ding looked mysterious: "You know what, there are people who don't have to hold on."

"Who?" x3.

Villager Ding: "It's Zhao Chengchuan's family. They definitely have a lot of firewood stored. As soon as his eldest son Zhao Deyan came back, the father and son went up the mountain to chop firewood, a month earlier than us. I met them at that time, but I didn't understand it at that time. I laughed at them for being stupid. Now I have to admire their long-term vision!"

Villager A was puzzled: "That's not right? How come his family knew to stock up on firewood in September?"

Villager Ding was full of envy: "Who knows, they are living such a comfortable life now. Maybe one brazier is not enough and they will light two or three. We can only endure it and our whole body is almost frozen."

Villager A: "His family is so selfish. They didn't even remind us. They have no mercy at all."

Villager C glared at him, his eyes sparkling: "Who are you calling selfish? They have to report everything to you. If they don't, they are selfish. Oh, do you think you are the village chief? You are so shameless!"

Villager Ding fanned the flames: "How can it not be? Not to mention that we have different surnames, you all have the surname Zhao, and you have the same ancestor for several generations. Why didn't you reveal anything?"

Villager B seemed to be persuaded, his eyes flickered, but he said nothing. Villager C would never allow anyone to sow discord among the tribesmen, so she stood up, pointed at villager D's nose and cursed him.

"Liu! I knew you couldn't hold back your fart! How do you know Chengchuan didn't warn? It was Chengchuan who told the village chief the news. If it weren't for Chengchuan, your whole family would have frozen to death! You don't know how to be grateful at all, and you keep saying that others are selfish! Your brain is smaller than an almond, you are stupid and vicious! You have nothing better to do than to sow discord! The village chief shouldn't have informed you at the time, otherwise how could you, an ungrateful person, sit here so calmly and slander my people! God is really blind, someone as heartless as you can still live well!"

Villager Ding was scolded so much that his face turned red, his neck became thick, his body trembled, and he spoke incoherently: "You...you!"

Villager C rolled his eyes: "I...I, ugh! It's so unlucky to be your neighbor!"

Villager Ding wanted to faint, but he tried to save his dignity: "A good man doesn't fight with a woman! I won't bother with you, a crazy woman!"

After saying those harsh words, he quickly climbed down from the roof and hid back home.

Villager C said with disdain: "Humph! A dog can't spit out ivory! With this little ability, you dare to gossip in front of me!"

Villager A was trembling with fear. Villager C looked at the culprit and said, "Why, you keep talking all day long. Do you think you have a mouth? Do you need me to show you the deep friendship of the Zhao people?"

Villager A didn't dare to speak and shook his head to leave an afterimage.

Villager C warned: "If I hear you spewing shit and slandering others again, I will definitely make you pay!"

Villager A looked at Villager C who was killing people like a god of war, and he swore to the heavens: "I won't dare to do that again."

Soon, there were only two members of the Zhao family left on the roof. Villager B was speechless, while Villager C was very disappointed and tried to persuade them earnestly: "What can I say about you? You were fooled by someone's casual instigation! What did the village chief teach us all these years? You didn't listen at all! It's not that people in our clan are flawless, but we must be clear about the major issues. Why did you believe Liu's lies? I can guarantee that the village chief knew the inside story that was definitely revealed by the Chengchuan family. Besides, even if what he said is true, it is our own business. We can settle the accounts behind closed doors. How can we let them laugh at us?"
