Traveling through ancient times: living a different life

Biyue and her younger brothers slept until about 2 p.m. before getting up. They went outside to wash their faces with the well water, which was cool and immediately made them feel % to % more awake.

The elders in the family were busy. Seeing Second Aunt coming out from the backyard, Bi Yue greeted her brothers and Second Aunt. She said a few words to the children and then went back to work.

"Second sister, is it fun in town?"

The fourth and fifth children had never been there before and were very curious. "Today is a market day, there are many people and it is quite lively. Grandma bought some things that the family needs and came back. When there is a chance in the future, ask the elders at home to take you to the town for a tour.

After Bi Yue finished speaking, she told her three younger brothers to get the sandbox respectively.

The three little ones arrived at the main hall and just sat down when they saw the fourth child say to Bi Yue: "Second sister, I want to drink some water."

Lao Wu also said he was thirsty.

So Biyue walked into the kitchen and looked at the stove that was as high as her mouth, feeling a little speechless.

Ting Wei followed him out and wanted to ask his mother for help, but Bi Yue said, "No need, go to the main room and watch over them. I have a way."

Seeing Biyue's insistence, Tingwei went to the main room. In fact, the stove was a bit high for a five-year-old child. She turned around and walked to the stove and saw a small stool.

She moved it over, stepped on it and looked at the stove. There was a small pot next to the two big pots. The small pot was at the back between the two big pots, close to the back stove.

Bi Yue could just reach it. The small pot was covered with a small iron lid. She could feel the temperature by putting her hand on the lid. It was not high. She held the pull ring on the small iron lid with her hand. The pull ring was made of wood, and the wood was wrapped with thin iron wire to prevent burns.

Biyue lifted the pull ring, opened the lid, and looked inside. The water inside was hot. Could this be the ancient version of a thermos?

Biyue covered the iron lid again and found a large bowl in the kitchen cabinet.

Take out the milk powder from the locker, scoop a few spoonfuls with the spoon inside, then open the lid on the small pot, scoop hot water and pour it into the bowl. The milk powder will dissolve in water and there will be a white milk fragrance. It must taste good. It is produced by the system and must be a high-quality product!

Then he covered the small iron lid, got off the stool, put the stool back in front of the stove, and steadily carried the milk to the main room with a pair of small hands, put it on the table, and said softly to Tingwei: "Go get three small bowls and give you something good to drink."

Tingwei obediently went to the kitchen to get three small bowls and put them on the table. Biyue divided the milk in the big bowl into the three small bowls. The two little eyes looked at the white and fragrant water in the bowls. They wanted to ask but didn't dare, so they looked at their brother and sister.

Bi Yue whispered, "Drink!"

The three little ones picked up their bowls and drank from them in small sips.

Ting Wei sighed as he drank, "Second sister, this white water is so fragrant, so delicious, and sweet."

The two little ones also looked at their sister, with white milk on their lips.

"Shh! This is a secret, you can't tell it. Once you tell it, it's gone. Do you three remember this?"

"Remember!" The three little ones nodded in agreement.

After drinking the milk, Biyue and Tingwei went to the well to fetch water to wash the dishes, put them back in the kitchen cabinet, and then went to study the homework assigned by Tingsong.

After finishing her work in the vegetable garden, the second aunt came to the main room and asked the children, "You've been working so hard for so long, are you thirsty?"

"Not thirsty."

Several children answered loudly. Judging from their clear voices, they were not thirsty, so they left.

The children began to study, and half an hour later, they heard the sound of dinner being prepared in the kitchen.

Tingwei and Biyue walked into the kitchen and asked their second aunt/mother, "Mother, let me help you light the fire!"

"Second Aunt, I'll go help you wash the vegetables,"

"Tingwei, light a fire, Yue'er, go and accompany your two younger brothers. You have just recovered from your illness, so take a rest! I have washed the vegetables in the backyard, go ahead!" Seeing that Second Aunt insisted, Biyue went to accompany the two little ones.

Half an hour later, the aroma of meat wafted from the kitchen. The three little ones happily ran to the kitchen, "Second Aunt, your cooking smells so good! You are such a great cook."

"Haha! You little guys should eat more later so that you can grow stronger."

Bi Yue responded: "Okay."

After another stick of incense, those who were working in the fields came back, and Tingsong also went home with his school bag. Those who put down their tools washed their hands in the backyard.

The men came to sit in the main room and saw that the children were still studying. "They are studying very hard. Eat more for dinner."

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, the children put the sandbox back into their rooms and came to the main room to eat.

The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law served the dishes. The eldest child also helped to serve the food, and the second child got the bowls and chopsticks.

Today's dishes include stir-fried cabbage with oil residue, stir-fried radish slices with meat, a loofah soup, pickled cucumbers, and baked multi-grain cakes. I made a lot of rice for lunch, so I kept a large bowl and shared it with the children. The children soaked the rice in the soup, and the adults put vegetables and meat in the children's bowls.

Everyone ate happily, finishing all three dishes and one soup. The family sat in the yard chatting, and the children played in the yard.

The eldest brother, Chen Qingyun, spoke first: "Dad, the work in the fields is almost done. I want to go to the town or the county with my second brother to do some odd jobs and earn some money."

"Fine!"

The eldest brother added, "A few days ago, I told Brother Chunsheng that I wanted to go out and find work after I was done with these few days. Brother Chunsheng promised to call me if there was work in the next two days."

"Well, it's safer to have someone introduce you."

As he was talking, Chunsheng walked into the yard and saw the father and his son all there. He smiled and greeted them, "Uncle Chen, Qingyun, Qinghai, have you eaten?"

Father Chen replied, "We just ate. I always have to trouble you to find work for the two brothers."

"It's not a big deal. We need to find people to do the work anyway. This time it's in the county. Mr. Zhou's family bought a two-story house. They think it's a bit old and need to renovate it. It will take at least a month. The wages are 40 cents a day, with one meal at noon. You can live in the yard. We'll set out together at six o'clock tomorrow morning when everyone is gathered at the village entrance."

After Chunsheng finished his business, he chatted for a while and then said goodbye and went home.

It was getting dark, and everyone went to wash up and sleep.

After taking a shower, Biyue went to bed early and went to chat with the system.

"System, what day is today?" "Today is April 24th"

"I remember the accident happened on Sunday, around 10 a.m. on April 21st. I woke up on the 23rd. I was in a coma for two days?"

"You were unconscious for two days. It took two days for your soul to arrive here from that time and space to receive and arrange it."

"I'm not on Earth right now?"

"Of course it's on Earth, but this is not your original planet. It's another planet. This is a balanced space-time."

"Tell me about the general situation of this country. I have been here for two days and I know nothing. I am completely in the dark."

“Okay host, this continent has many similarities with the ancient Earth before you. This is the feudal dynasty, the era of cold weapons, and the productivity here is low.

The country you are in now is called Changping State. The king's surname is Jiang. It has been passed down for 120 years and has experienced four generations of emperors. This generation of emperor is a wise ruler. He has been on the throne for ten years. There are two other countries around Changping State, and their land areas are not as large as Changping State. When you grow up, you will slowly learn more. It's too late. You are still young. Don't stay up late. Go to sleep!"

"Okay, Ann!"
