When I went out, the sky was only hazy and bright, and the sun had not yet appeared, only a golden border was set on the distant horizon.

The sky was a dull blue, and the stars in the east had disappeared, while the stars in the west were still shining and making their last efforts.

It's still early, and there is a slight cold feeling around, which is just right for the road.

Zhiwen was a little excited, since he came to this world, he has not been out of the door so far, he used to like those ancient cities and ancient towns, but later too many of them were commercialized, the same, the county town he was going to today was a real ancient city.

Out of the village, Zhiwen turned around and took another look at the village where he had stayed for most of the year-Qianshan Village, not nostalgia, just goodbye, maybe he will never come back.

There are wheat and sorghum on both sides of the road, but without exception, they have basically withered, and the occasional bright spot should be the family working desperately to fetch water and irrigate.

But Zhiwen felt that it was basically useless work, and according to this drought, even if he could find some water, he would be able to keep some seeds for the coming year.

As for food, those who have stored grain can eat their old books, such as those big families, they all have a lot of grain.

If there is no food in stock, it is indispensable to sell children and daughters, flee on the road, and... Riot.

Zhiwen shuddered when he thought about it, if he didn't get this magic system, a family of four would soon become fertilizer for this land.

At noon, the hottest time of the day, the sun hung high in the sky, and there was no shade except for the fields, the ground was hot and the distant scenery became distorted.

A family of three is no longer easy when going out early in the morning, Zhiwen Niang has been used to working since childhood, her feet are good, but she can't withstand the scorching sun on her head and the steaming of the ground, and the sweat runs down her face, but it is quickly dried by high temperature, leaving faint white stains.

Zhiwen's condition is okay, in the second picture, he thinks it should be as light as a swallow, although he has not yet practiced, and the veins have not yet circulated on their own, but he also feels that his body is much lighter than before, and it is not too difficult to walk and run.

The worst thing is Nannan, at a young age, although she has to work at home, and she has to go up the mountain from time to time to find firewood, but she has never walked such a long way once.

But this girl has a tough temperament, she has not complained about hardship on the road, she has been gritting her teeth and insisting, it was Zhiwen who found that she couldn't walk anymore, so she carried her on her back and hurried, relying on her own light body, Zhiwen Niang wanted to change her back with him several times on the road, but Zhiwen didn't let her.

At a fork in the road, the three of them found a smooth stone and rested.

Zhiwen took out the water bladder and dry food, and distributed them to his mother and Nannan, everyone was tired and hungry, and they couldn't talk for a while, and were busy eating and drinking.

After eating and resting for a while, Zhiwen was about to beckon his mother and Nannan to continue walking, but saw that Zhiwen Niang looked a little uncertain, and looked at the two roads in front of him and seemed to be undecided.

"Mother, which way to enter the county?" Zhiwen asked.

"Take the left one." Zhiwen Niang replied quickly.

"Oh, looking at my mother like this, I thought you didn't know the way." Zhiwen joked.

"How can it," Zhiwen Niang shook her head with a smile, "The right is to go to Dingjia Village, that is your grandfather's house, and my mother hasn't been back to her parents' house for a long time." ”

Zhiwen didn't dare to answer now, this grandfather's family has no memory of himself, and he said too much.

"Grandma's house, did you go in a donkey cart last time? Then let's go to grandma's house to have fun. "But I proposed.

"The road is not close, if you go, you won't be able to catch up with the county seat today." Zhiwen Niang shook her head.

"Isn't it okay to stay at Grandma's house for one night?" Nan Nan asked.

Zhiwen Niang didn't answer, stood up, and took Nannan's hand, "Go, enter the county seat, and see if your father has rented the house to us, and now we can also live in a tile house." ”

Zhiwen easily put away a few weeds with purple flowers and bones on the side into the warehouse, although it was no longer dry, but it was still very tenaciously alive.

Just now he saw that Nan Nan glanced at this little flower from time to time, if he wasn't too tired, he would have picked it himself.

This time I was in a hurry, and I obviously forgot about it, so I planted them in the open space first, and then took them out to surprise them when they grew up.

Qian Zhiwen, who went into the city to pay it, said that it had also risen, it was originally three wen per person, and now it is five wen, but fortunately Zhiwen took a small piece of broken silver to his mother in advance, so there was no strange scene of his mother asking her son for money.

The city is indeed full of antiquity, and it feels much more than the commercialized ancient cities in later generations.

The ground is very clean, there is no dirty scene as Zhiwen imagined, but there are very few pedestrians on the street, occasionally a few, and they are also in a hurry, the face is not good, the banners hanging on the street are very old, and the business is very deserted.

Zhiwen looked at the street while following Zhiwen Niang, in fact, he didn't walk a few steps to his destination, a dilapidated land temple, it seems to be on the edge of the city.

Zhiwen Niang was about to take the second child in, when she suddenly thought of something, turned around and took the two to the corner of the street, and asked Zhiwen to take the girl and not run around.

Seeing Zhiwen looking at her with puzzled eyes, he explained: "If we go in together, the three of us will be seen by others." ”

Seeing that Zhiwen still didn't understand, he continued: "If you rent a house, your father plans to live there except for himself, and today we were seen to come to him, and he disappeared in a few days, so people asked." ”

Zhiwen understands now, this is for fear of being suspected and causing trouble.

It didn't take long for Zhiwen Niang and Zheng San to appear.

As soon as they met, Zheng San was happy to pick up Nannan, and then threw it into the air, giggling happily, and wanted to hug Zhiwen again, Zhiwen was a big man in his heart, he was not very happy, he shrank back intentionally or unintentionally, and Zheng San had to give up.

The house is there, it is a small house, Zheng San has seen it and is very satisfied.

But it's not rented, it's already bought.

Zheng San whispered the situation as he walked on the road, originally only planning to rent, but as the drought became more and more serious, some of the rich and noble families in the county began to move out, and the number of relatives and friends who visited friends increased, but there were not many people who rented, and the rent became lower and lower.

The rent of this house is twelve taels of silver a year, Zheng San still wants to lower the price, but the owner is unwilling to reduce it, and he does not plan to come back, so he makes a price of twenty taels of silver and asks Zheng San if he will buy it.

Zheng San was stunned by this big pie all of a sudden, and bought a house in the county seat for twenty taels of silver, don't even think about it before, and there was still a little surplus of silver on his back, so he gritted his teeth and bought it.

After Zheng San finished speaking, he looked at Zhiwen a little apprehensively. The last time Zhiwen took out so much silver, plus Zhiwen Niang secretly told him just now that Zhiwen's magical spell that turned things into disappearing and conjuring up, Zheng San himself didn't realize that he now regarded his son as the head of the family.

Zhiwen can understand Zheng San's behavior of buying a house very well, the Han people have regarded land and houses as the root of their lives since ancient times, they are heirlooms, they are the god of wealth, and a little extra money is to buy a house and buy land.

Don't look at Zheng San's good carpenter skills, he can basically ensure the food and clothing of the family, which is better than many people in the village who rent land to plant, but there is no tile on the top and no land on the bottom, Zheng San may not know how aggrieved and inferior he is, these twenty taels of house are like the temptation of a fragrant roast chicken to a homeless man who has been hungry for three days.

Zhiwen Niang also looked full of approval on the side, and bought a county town house for twenty taels and made a fortune.

Listening to the chatter of Zheng San and his wife, and looking at their worried faces, Zhiwen suddenly understood that this silver was given by himself, and Zheng San was asked to rent a house at the beginning, and they felt that this was an unauthorized purchase of a house, and they were worried that Zhiwen would be unhappy.

"Dad, mother, this house is well bought, we finally don't have to sleep in the cave." Zhiwen smiled and said, "Compared to the cave, I don't know how much better this tiled house is, right, Dad?" ”

"Hehe, that's, otherwise, why don't we live in a tiled house and live in a cave." Zheng San sighed, glanced at each other with Zhiwen Niang, and smiled.
