A family of three travels through time together, and the golden finger is turned on
Chapter 4 The story begins
The gains from this trip were indeed not small. After returning, Gu Can quietly slipped into his parents' room at night.
"Dad, Mom." Gu Can shouted.
"Why are you here? Are you scared to sleep alone?" Gu Shiliang picked up Gu Can and joked with a smile.
"No, I have something important to ask Daddy." Gu Can replied. As her body got smaller, she didn't think there was anything wrong with being cute and coquettish. After all, she had always been like this before she traveled through time, and she would never grow up in front of her parents.
"Oh, it's something very important. Can mother listen to it?" Ji Yiwan smiled and pinched her little nose.
"Mom can do it too." Gu Can nodded seriously.
"Pfft, okay, tell me what's the matter." Gu Shiliang poked her forehead.
"I want to build a mountain temple, and I have to do it quickly, otherwise the last wisp of the mountain god's divine consciousness in the nameless mountain will dissipate." Gu Can said.
"Mountain God Temple, how did you know? Today the Martial God System did prompt that a god is about to die." Gu Shiliang thought about the inexplicable prompt today.
"I received it too. Could this be the mountain god's distress signal?" Ji Yiwan's imagination is so wild that she can't stop thinking.
"It's possible, but we don't know the true form of the mountain god, you know?" Gu Shiliang looked at Gu Can. Gu Can nodded. Then he took out a spirit and transformed it into the form of the mountain god for the two of them to see. This spirit had not been imbued with divine consciousness, so Gu Can handed it to Gu Shiliang directly. When he went to the nameless mountain, he would see if the mountain god's divine consciousness could reside there, buying more time.
Because his parents were so capable, Gu Can handed over things to his father and lived a happy life of eating, drinking and sleeping.
Gu Can, through the elderly couple, handed over all the elixirs and secret manuals he had collected over the past year and distributed them to the family. As a result, the four children were in excellent health, and their skills improved rapidly. Within two years, Gu Pan and Gu Hele, two years older, had developed mental problems. While on a spring outing, they destroyed half an acre of crops from the villagers' fields, believing they were doing nothing wrong. Then, the family began holding weekly family meetings, working in the fields monthly, and begging for a few days every quarter.
These are all decided by Old Man Zhang and Old Lady Tang. Of course, how effective they are depends on how active the children are, how they cherish food, how they respect life, how hardworking and studious they are, how generous and elegant they are, and how they handle things with moderation. This shows how successful the education is.
Gu Hele is a truly handsome young man, so graceful and upright at such a young age that Gu Can is worried about overcorrecting. However, the occasional sly glances between their eyebrows show that they haven't been taught to lose their true selves. Gu Can once again marvels at the power of the golden finger; such a good teacher is already a golden finger of the sky.
Time slipped by, and the story was about to begin. That day, Gu Shiliang received a letter from Jindu, the capital of the Tian Dynasty. Prime Minister Ji had angered the emperor, and he had demoted his entire family to commoners and exiled them to Yingzhou.
Seven-year-old Gu Can, Gu Shiliang and Ji Yiwan looked at each other in silence. Five years had passed in a flash, and what was coming finally came. Gu Shiliang had managed Qingshan County very well in recent years, especially providing high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes. Therefore, although he did not get promoted, he was not implicated this time.
Gu He'an is fourteen years old, and Gu Heju is thirteen years old. In the past few years, they have practiced martial arts and literature, and learned the six arts of a gentleman, namely archery, horse riding and shooting. Their daily homework is very heavy, and they also have to work in the fields to dig wild vegetables and identify herbs, which is also very busy. However, they have grown into handsome young men. Not to mention that this family has really good genes. Looking at her round belly from eating so much, she is not worried about her future appearance, humph!
"It will take half a month to get from Jindu to here even if we gallop day and night. My parents must be on the way. The whole family is exiled, so there must be no one to take care of them. He Anheju, you take people to welcome them along the way. Don't be too ostentatious, just make a few arrangements to avoid attracting attention. Just make sure your grandparents and your uncle's family can get to Yingzhou smoothly. I will arrange it here." Gu Shiliang said.
"Yes, father." Gu Hean and Gu Heju were still eager to go out and do things on their own. They had seen a lot in the past few years following Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Tang, and now they could finally go out and explore the world.
"You go and make the arrangements. I'll pack some useful things for the two brothers to take to the elders." Ji Yiwan was about to show her worry at this time, but she was really worried. After all, the two old people were really kind in her memory. The journey was long and the conditions were difficult. Although she knew that the heroine would escort them, things were unpredictable. Who knew whether the heroine and her family could arrive in time?
Gu Hean and Gu Heju set off quietly with their small group of people. The exile of the Ji family came so suddenly that they had no time to make further preparations. Not long after the letter was sent, the Ji family was already on the road.
Now they had already covered a third of the journey. Nine-year-old Ji Xueling had never been so exhausted. She hadn't eaten or slept well, and the long journey every day soon wore on. This evening, they camped outdoors in the mountains, and when they woke up, the three of them looked like different people.
"Mom and Dad?" Ji Xueling looked at the two people in front of her who were looking at each other in confusion and asked tentatively in a low voice.
"Xiaoxue, Old Ji." Qin Qiuyue also replied in a low voice.
"It's me. Luckily you guys are here too." Ji Haiping felt relieved.
"Oh, thank goodness, thank goodness. It's over. Our family has been exiled." Ji Xiaoxue, now Ji Xueling, was speechless. A good family was sent here by a mushroom soup. She would never eat mushrooms again.
"You have a red envelope, please accept it." Ji Xueling was lamenting the hardships of life when she heard a pleasant voice. She quickly accepted it.
"You received a private red envelope from the group owner of the plane red envelope group, including a copy of the Body Tempering Technique, a bottle of Body Tempering Pill, and a bottle of Fasting Pill."
"Oh my god, this is just the right time!" While Ji Xueling was ecstatic, Ji Haiping and Qin Qiuyue also discovered their own golden fingers. Qin Qiuyue dug a small piece of silver out of the original owner's shoe and bought 20 large multi-grain steamed buns on her Taobao store. Ji Haiping also bought a portion of braised meat from a braised meat shop. The three of them first went to the side to eat a homemade roujiamo.
Then they shared their respective cheat codes. Then, in tacit agreement, the three of them began practicing the Body Tempering Technique. The next day, Ji Xueling went to the bathroom and pretended to have found a pheasant egg. Ji Haiping also gave some to the officials, and the other sons and the elders shared some. Ji Xueling placed a Body Tempering Pill in the boiled water.
After drinking this water, the health of the whole family will last longer.
The next day, after resting at the post station, Ji Haiping spent some money and took Ji Xueling out shopping. It was still chilly in the spring, and the weather grew colder the further they got to Yingzhou. They bought some thick quilts, but to avoid looking conspicuous, they didn't take much. The main reason was that Ji Xueling had brought a backpack back home; it was her cover; from now on, she was the one who would provide food for the whole family.
On this exile road, Ji Xueling's family of three was busy with the challenge of survival, while Gu Shiliang's family was busy arranging living space for the other family. Gu Hean and Gu Heju rode their horses at full speed, day and night, and after 7 days, they caught up with the group of exiles.
The two did not rush to come forward to recognize each other, but after arriving at the post station, Gu Hean quietly went to find the official and arranged a separate room for the family.
"Knock knock." The whole family felt a little surprised when they heard the knock on the door. Finally, Grandpa Ji asked Ji Yansong to open the door.
"It must be Brother Yansong. I am He'an, and this is Heju." Gu He'an stated his identity directly.
"It's An Ge'er and Ju Ge'er, the good boy has grown up so much." Ji Yansong patted his shoulder and then found that he was a little dirty, but Gu and An didn't care. Xiaoxiao took Gu and Ju into the house.
"He'an (Heju) meets grandpa and grandma." The two men bowed deeply when they saw the two old people.
"Hurry up, hurry up! Why are you here? How are your parents? Have they been implicated?" The old lady couldn't stop crying as she spoke. She had been worried all the way here. She hadn't seen her daughter for many years. Although they often exchanged letters, they were afraid to only report good news and not bad news. Now seeing the handsome appearance of her two grandsons, she was pleasantly surprised.
"Mom and Dad are both fine and have not been implicated. They just heard about this and were worried that no one would take care of things and that grandparents would have had a hard time on the road, so they asked us to come and pick them up. They will take care of things in Yingzhou, and they would also like to trouble grandparents, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters to hold on a little longer. Everything will be fine once we get to Yingzhou." Gu He'an said.
"How can this be? What if you are implicated? You should sever ties with us right now." In this era of imperial power, offending the emperor would lead to exile, and others would be forced to avoid suspicion. How could they dare to get involved? Even Ji Haiping and the other two, who came from peaceful times, found it incredible.
"Uncle, what you said is not true. Family members should support each other. It's just that there are too many people on the road, so my brother and I can't show up. Uncle, take this silver. There are also other things prepared by mother. It would be best if we can get through tomorrow." Gu He'an said as he handed over a stack of banknotes.
"By the way, I'm afraid you haven't eaten well these days." Gu Heju had already brought in a lot of food boxes with his men. Some of them were bought here, and many of the pastries were prepared by Ji Yiwan.
"Mom has loved cooking over the years. Grandma, please try my mother's cooking. This is specially prepared by my mother." Gu Heju picked up the pastry and handed it to the two elders.
"Very good." Zhang Yutao took a bite and found it to be really good. Ji Wenxiu already had a sweet tooth, and now that it was a gift from his daughter and his beloved grandson, he ate it so much that his beard was almost standing up.
"It's delicious! I've never tasted such delicious pastries before." Ji Xueling took a bite and found it truly indescribably delicious. After all, Ji Yiwan was already a first-class spiritual chef, and her skills in making mortal food were at the pinnacle of perfection. It was simply irresistible. And the peace of mind and warmth conveyed through the food was truly unforgettable.
"If you like it, Sister Xueling, eat more. Mother has prepared a lot. Panpan and Cancan are so happy to hear that you are coming. They are already preparing gifts for you. I want to ask what they are, but they are still very secretive. You must show me first when the time comes." Gu Heju said with a smile.
"Really? Then I have to prepare gifts for my two younger sisters as well." Ji Xueling said. She is an only child and has seen many fake sisters in modern times. However, she has two more younger sisters here. Judging from the personalities of her cheap aunt and cheap uncle, her two younger sisters must be no worse than before.
"Pfft, you, Panpan is a year older than you, but Cancan is still young. When she left Jindu, she was only two years old. She's still very cute now, right?" The Ji family has a good family tradition and doesn't favor boys over girls. On the contrary, because there are fewer daughters, the daughters are all pampered. Zhang Yutao tapped Ji Xueling's forehead and corrected her with a smile, her eyes filled with infinite longing and yearning.
"Grandma, I'm cute too. I'm not just one year older, I'm only half a year older. I'm the older sister. I don't care. I'll tell Panpan I want to be the older sister." Ji Xueling had good intentions, but she didn't expect to be suppressed by a real 10-year-old girl not long after. Ji Haiping and Qin Qiuyue burst into laughter.
