I traveled through time and space to hunt and support my family in ancient times

After hearing what she said, several children picked up chestnuts and tasted them. The chestnut skin with a cross on it was easy to peel, so they put it into their mouths with the skin still on, bit into the sweet and sticky chestnut flesh, and then spit out the shell.

Cai has been able to eat chestnuts since she was a child. She has always thought that chestnuts are delicious. Moreover, with enough oil and sugar, how can they not be delicious?

After taking a bite, it was indeed fragrant and glutinous, one after another.

Jiang Youshan looked at the happy family and picked up all the chestnuts in the sand, put them in a bamboo basket and took it to the main room to eat.

It's cold outside and Cai can't stand the cold.

After that, he took a mat and covered the bamboo basket to prevent the heat from dissipating.

When he was eating chestnuts after finishing all these, he suddenly thought: "Oh, they are so delicious, I should send some to your grandparents."

Jiang Xue volunteered: "Dad asked me to send it off. I'm going to play with my cousin's wife for a while and ask her to teach me how to do the hairstyle I did last time."

Jiang Yue shouted, "By the way, ask grandma for some raw chestnuts."

Jiang Youshan said angrily: "How can you still want something to eat?"

Jiang Yue said indifferently: "You see, your wife likes to eat it. I know Aunt Cai's family is not short of this. Let's fry another pot after we finish eating."

Cai blushed immediately. She was so old, why was her daughter still teasing her?

Jiang Youshan rubbed his sore arm and said, "It's delicious, but it will hurt my arm. The earth woke up early this year, so I won't mess around with you. I'll save my strength to grow seedlings!"

Jiang Yue raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Dad, I'm just teasing you. I'll cook it myself later and give it to your wife. I hope she'll give birth to a plump little sister."

Cai laughed angrily and raised her hand as if to hit her: "You are so lawless, you want to make fun of me."

"Mom, you are the one who is worried all day long. My brother and I are not at home, so it is useless for you to worry. You only said that we have lost weight, but where have you gained weight? You just gained a belly."

"Yes, yes, when you get married, mother won't have to worry about you anymore."

The family was having a great time when they heard a sound of running. Jiang Yue's ears twitched and she tilted her head to look outside the door.

Jiang Xue rushed in with a pale face.

"Mom, sister, they, they..." Jiang Xue ran so fast that she couldn't say a word in one breath.

Jiang Yue's expression was stern: "Don't be impatient, speak slowly."

Jiang Xue took a deep breath to steady herself, and said anxiously, "They, that family is back! It's so scary."

"Who?"

Jiang Xue finally caught her breath and said, "That family, Jiang Youguang is back! He's wearing mourning clothes and pulling a mat!"

Hearing this, Jiang Youshan and Cai were all shocked.

"Who died?"

Jiang Youshan's expression changed instantly. Seeing that Cai was still stunned, he hurriedly said, "I'll go take a look."

Jiang Ming rushed out following Jiang Youshan.

……

Jiang Yue, Jiang Xue and Jiang Lei stayed at home to take care of the Cai family. The people over there died, so it had nothing to do with his family.

Suddenly, there was a cry, and it sounded like Jiang Youtian and Li were crying for their mother. Liu was dead.

The villagers also came over one after another, gathered at the gate of the Jiang family, and sighed over Liu's death: "I saw her once before the New Year, and she looked strong. How could she suddenly..."

"You Guang, your mother..."

Old man Jiang was trembling as he tried to lift the straw mat. Chen and Li turned away in fear as everyone exclaimed. Old man Jiang's hands trembled and he dropped the straw mat in fear.

Liu’s death was so horrible.

Jiang Youshan didn't know that others didn't see it clearly, but he saw clearly that Liu didn't die well. Half of her face was bloody and she was gone.

Jiang Youshan subconsciously blocked Jiang Ming's sight with his body. In his eyes, Jiang Ming was still young and couldn't stand seeing this kind of thing. In fact, Jiang Ming had also seen it. As early as in the deep mountains, when horse thieves attacked the village, and when transporting grain at the border, there were dead people with missing limbs and rotten intestines. What kind of things had he not seen?

"Dad, I'm fine."

No wonder Jiang Youguang brought the person back without notifying Old Man Jiang. The death was too sudden and it couldn’t have been a good one.

"Why is our mother gone? Explain clearly!"

Jiang Youtian's eyes were red, and he grabbed Jiang Youguang's collar, "What's going on? Tell me."

"It was scratched in the carriage..."

Jiang Youguang cried loudly and kowtowed repeatedly.

The dead cannot be resurrected. Old man Jiang shed tears and said, "Arrange your mother's funeral first. Let's lock up the whole family and talk about how she died."

Pull the coffin, set up the tent cloth, bury the body...

Jiang Youfang is here.

……

When a person dies, his debts are forgiven. Jiang Yue did not stop Jiang Youshan from going over to help. Suddenly, a sharp cry was heard over there, followed by a curse on Jiang Youguang.

Jiang Youfang started making a fuss, saying that her mother was killed by Jiang Youguang, and threw herself on Liu to prevent her mother from being buried.

The Jiang family became noisy.

……

Jiang Youshan and Jiang Ming didn't come back until the evening and talked about it, and only then did the family know the cause of Liu's death.

Liu was riding a carriage home. Because she was carsick, she stuck her head out of the carriage to get some fresh air and was scratched to death by a branch on the side of the road.

"No wonder Jiang Youfang was making such a fuss. His death was so bizarre!"

Jiang Yue nodded: "Although it's not a pity that this old woman died, but Jiang Youfang could see the situation at a glance, so did Old Man Jiang and Jiang Youtian believe it?"

Jiang Ming sighed: "Isn't it because of old man Jiang's protection? Jiang Youguang said that Liu should be buried immediately. Let's see, maybe Liu's death is really related to him."

Cai said, "I think we should report it to the police. Liu was very strong. How could she be hanged to death by a tree branch on the roadside while riding in a car? This is unbelievable. Jiang Youguang is not a good person. He is not telling the truth, but he can't return his mother, right?"

Jiang Youshan said, "Liu died with him. If she was murdered, he would be the most likely suspect. Moreover, he insisted on burying Liu immediately when he came back. He even got excited and had a big fight when Jiang Youtian sent someone to call Jiang Youfang. It's very abnormal."

Jiang Yue glanced at Jiang Youshan and Cai, and thought: Apart from anything else, his father was quite accurate in judging Jiang Youguang.

Jiang Ming said, "Dad and Mom, don't worry about his family's affairs. Anyway, the matter has been reported to the authorities. She can't be buried for a while, so don't go out these days. We will go there after the situation is cleared up."

Jiang Youshan nodded: "Well, don't worry, we won't get involved in this mess."

He had no feelings for the Liu family, and he went to help that family only out of respect for Old Man Jiang.

Jiang Youfang reported to the authorities, and the county constables came down to investigate. When they saw Liu's body, they immediately became alarmed and took her back to the government office for an autopsy and interrogation of the relevant personnel.

By the time the officials visited the village, Jiang Youguang's story had spread throughout the village.

The villagers then realized that Jiang Youguang's title as a scholar had been taken away from him and he had been fined double the amount.

The villagers who almost registered their fields under Jiang Youguang's name sighed: Fortunately, Jiang Youguang was in a hurry to move away, so they avoided the loss.

Jiang Youfang's in-laws were not so lucky. Not only did they lose the bribes they had given to others, but they also haven't gotten their land back.
