The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house

Chapter 235 The person who shouldn’t be there

In the blink of an eye, the Chinese New Year is almost here.

Black Rock City was hit by another heavy snowfall, which had lasted for a day and a night and had not stopped yet.

The snow soon reached knee-high levels, so the older kids stopped going out to play and stayed in empty houses.

Looking at the older ones, Ye Zhan said to his two sons, "See? The older ones are smart. They know the weather is cold and are afraid of being frozen to death by the heavy snow."

When Shiyilang heard this and nodded, he knew that Da Yi was very smart.

The adults and children of the Thirteen Banners hid in their houses and dared not go out. The adults kept telling their children, "The snow is too heavy and the snow is too deep. If you go out, you will disappear."

The children were also frightened by the adults at home and did not dare to go out to play, for fear that they would fall into a snow pit and not be able to come back.

The Jiang family's yard was fine. Every two hours, someone came to sweep the house and yard.

Ye Zhan was holding an oil-paper umbrella, standing on the steps in front of his house, looking at the other side of the river.

"It's still better now. Every household has built a house with stone tiles, which is sturdy and warm. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with such heavy snow."

"That's right." Jiang Yan looked at the white sky and earth and thought of Dajun and Xiaojun who had been away from home for two months. "I wonder how Dajun and the others are doing?"

"Don't worry, Jiangnan is much warmer than here. You can probably survive the winter there just by wearing a padded jacket." Ye Zhan said it in general terms. In modern times, the couple had both been to Jiangnan.

I just don’t know if the weather today is different from the weather in this era.

"Let's go back to the house! With Shiyilang's personality, he'll have to go out and play again."

Shiyilang was indeed bored and not satisfied staying at the gate, so he begged his parents to take him out to play.

"Dad, let's go out and play for a while, just for a while."

"It's snowing so hard, the snow is almost as tall as you. If you go in, we won't be able to see you."

Ye Zhan was afraid his youngest son wouldn't believe him, so he used the older ones as an example: "Look, the older ones all know how to stay indoors. Could it be that Shiyilang is even more powerful than them?"

Shiyilang knew very well that they were much better than him. Not only could they catch rabbits, but they could also find hens that had run away. He could not do any of these.

When Juro saw that his brother was silent, he guessed that Shiyilang might be sad.

Shiyilang would of course be sad when he thought that he was not as useful as Dayi and the others.

...

Thousands of miles away in Jiangnan, winter had also arrived. But the winter here was clearly different from the winter in Black Stone City.

Even the people in Ping'an Town had changed into winter clothes, but in the eyes of the Dajun brothers, those were just padded jackets at best. Compared to the cotton-padded jackets they had worn in Blackrock City, they seemed a season apart.

Xiaojun looked at the lush greenery on the distant mountains and wanted to go out for a walk. "Brother, how about we go out for a walk?"

Dajun thought about the winter in Black Stone City, where the gates were already blocked by heavy snow, so he readily agreed.

The two brothers did not ride horses. They informed their uncle and aunt and left the house.

With the Lunar New Year approaching, the town became bustling with activity. Most of the people were from nearby villages, coming to buy New Year's goods. Some people from the village also came to sell dried vegetables and eggs.

The Lu family's pancake shop was also doing good business today, and Aqiu was also helping Uncle Lu in the shop.

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the shop: "Mom, I want to eat buns, big meat buns, please buy them for me quickly."

"You debt collector, all you know how to do is eat in one day."

Hearing the familiar voice, the smile on Aqiu's face disappeared instantly.

But the boy outside was still not quiet. "No, no, I just want to eat the big meat bun." On the dirt road outside, the boy, about seven or eight years old, didn't care how dirty the road was and habitually lay on the ground and kicked his legs.

The area around the child was covered with dust. When passers-by saw the child, they covered their mouths and noses and stayed away from him in disgust.

"Oh my god, the ground is so dirty, get up quickly." The burly woman wanted to pick up the boy from the ground, but the boy did not cooperate at all, and the woman was helpless.

When the woman realized she couldn't lift her son, she shouted to the man standing there stupidly, "You dead man, why don't you come and help me?"

"Ah!" The man was still very strong and he reached out and picked up the boy lying on the ground. However, the boy was already covered in dirt, so the man impatiently stretched out his big hand and patted him twice.

The boy felt pain and started crying loudly. He kept mumbling, "I want to eat buns, big meat buns."

The woman couldn't bear to see her son cry, so she scolded the man, "You are useless. You don't even have money to buy buns for your son."

"Don't you have all our family's money? Even my parents' money was taken away by you."

"How dare you talk like that? I'm the head of our family, so the money should be in my hands. And your parents, they're so old, what do they still do with money? Besides, who's parents earn money for their children and grandchildren?"

“That…that…”

"I'm telling you, Tao Achun, if you can't speak, don't speak. It would be better to just squat behind the door and be mute, so as not to make me angry."

"You~"

"What are you talking about? Go to your cousin's restaurant and get some buns for your son. Remember, get a few more. I'm hungry too."

When Tao Achun heard his wife ask him to go to his cousin's house to get buns, he did not move.

"I'm talking to you, are you deaf?" Seeing that Tao Achun still refused to go to Ayue's restaurant to order buns, Xue got furious and reached out to pinch Tao Achun's ears.

Tao Achun quickly dodged away.

"Hey, you bastard, you still dare to hide from me? Believe it or not, if you hide from me again, I will twist your ears off and feed them to the dogs today."

"Wow~"

"No~"

"what!"

People who heard it nearby all made strange noises.

Even the two brothers Dajun, who had just returned, were stunned by the woman's harsh words.

What surprised everyone even more was yet to come. The man really didn't dare to hide anymore and retreated back with despair, only to see the woman twisting his ears until they turned red.

A woman nearby couldn't bear to watch and muttered, "Isn't this murdering your own husband?"

The woman was furious when she heard this. She put her hands on her hips and yelled, "I pinched him, what can you do?"

An old woman nearby, probably the elder of the woman who had just spoken, said disdainfully, "That's your family's stuff. It's your business whether you want to kill it or scrape it. There's no need to argue with us."

"You fart."

"I farted, why did you make your mouth so big?"

"Pfft~"

"Pfft."

"Hahaha~" Xiaojun was amused by the old woman's words.
