Chapter 1 Under the Fence
Chapter 1: Under the Fence
The dim oil lamp reflected the shadow of a woman on the dilapidated screen, which danced irregularly with the flickering flames on the window paper.
The woman was doing needlework with her head down, and a few strands of hair were hanging in front of her forehead, occasionally stopping her movements and rubbing her sour eyes, and you didn't need to look closely to know that the woman was very haggard at the moment.
It was late at night, and the time had come.
Bang dang...
A humanoid lightning bolt fell from the nine heavens into the earth, flashing with dazzling white light, as if tearing a passage between the sky and the earth that I didn't know where to connect.
Cuckoo...
A loud roar of thunder disturbed the sleeping chickens and ducks, and they let out a few nightmarish murmurs.
The wind rose, the sound of footsteps came from far and near, and a mother-in-law stood in front of the window and scolded arrogantly: "Don't you need money for lamp oil?" I don't want you to pay for your feelings, but it's a waste of energy, right? ”
Call...
The woman hurriedly blew out the oil lamp, and did not forget to tell her: "Granny Jiang, Li'er had a nightmare just now, so she lit the oil lamp, and next time it won't be..."
"Hmph..."
The mother-in-law outside the window snorted heavily, and the footsteps gradually faded away...
The wind was howling, and the city of Fuzhou, which was shrouded in darkness, could not see its five fingers.
It was raining, and the raindrops made a clicking sound on the tiles overhead, and at this moment, Yang Li on the bed in the small room slowly opened his eyes.
During this time, he has been immersed in a huge shock, countless memories of this body that did not originally belong to him show that he has become another person, and his soul has come to the orthodox decade of the Ming Dynasty more than six hundred years ago, and this scholar who is as thin as dry wood, sick in bed all the year round, and whose brain is not very normal is fused together.
Not only that, but there was also a strange thing that happened to him, there was a scientifically unexplained exchange system in his mind, as long as the payment system specified the silver coin, the active state of the item can appear in the real state......
Well, just take a look, there is no money to pay, and the ruthless system will not let Yang Li take anything away...
……
Time slipped away as Yang Li kept fusing the memories of this body and studying the system parasitic in his brain...
A few flashes of light shone through the hole-filled windows into the tiny room.
The day dawned, and the scroll of time turned a new page.
Rolling up the thin futon, standing up the wooden board against the wall, Zhou's eyes were a little red and swollen, and she glanced at Yang Li, who was also looking at her, on the side of the bed, she squeezed out a kind smile: "Li'er, sleep a little longer, my mother will first go and deliver the clothes of Wang's sister-in-law's house across the street, take the medicine and then wake you up..."
With that, Zhou took the clothes he had sewn under the dim oil lamp last night in his arms, pushed open the door, and strode out.
The air after the rain was clear, but there was some discordant smell in the air due to the fact that the livestock were shut down next door to this room.
Zhou's family is from a wealthy family, because Yang Li's father Yang Yongzhi went out on a study tour eight years ago and there is no news, Zhou's life alone with Yang Li, whose brain is not very normal...
So, the orphans and widows who these two people had no support for became grandmothers who didn't hurt, uncles didn't love, and they were excluded from the Yang family in Hangzhou Mansion, and Zhou's mother's family didn't take them in.
Finding someone who hasn't been heard from for eight years is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack!
When he walked to Fuzhou Mansion, Yang Li was seriously ill, and Zhou's coils were exhausted, so in desperation, Zhou took Yang Li to live in the Bai family in Fuzhou City.
The Bai family and the Yang family are related, it is said that Bai Muxi, the old man of the Bai family who died three years ago, and Yang Li's grandfather Yang Wenhe are classmates and friends, and the two are both Yongle two years old.
This should be true, otherwise in this era when the majority of people are generally poor and eat soil, the Bai family has no reason to take in their mother and son, and they have lived for nothing for three months.
Zhou's licking of the calf warmed Yang Li's heart, even if the greatness of maternal love spanned hundreds of years, it can still touch all strangeness, estrangement, and Yang Li's strange soul.
"If you come, let it be safe..."
Yang Li got up and rubbed his swollen head.
Because this body was weak and sick, he was so sick that he was bedridden for three months, and when he got out of bed, Yang Li's steps staggered a little.
Leaning against the wall to the door, the sun shining on his pale and weak face after the rain was morbidly unnatural.
The doorway was a little messy, vividly recording the dilapidated left by the lightning and thunder of the night last night, the rotten beams were scattered with sawdust all over the ground, the gray tiles fell to the ground and shattered, and there was a short blue brick in two.
However, no one has come to clean up the mess.
Yang Li smiled playfully, as a dilapidated house separated from the room where the livestock was kept, it would be really strange if someone really took care of it so actively.
At the end of the wandering sight was a cluster of purple gold flowers, which were blooming purple, and because of the wind and rain last night, a large number of small petals had fallen on the ground......
The fresh air does not have the slightest taste of industry, and Yang Li suddenly thought that the spring of this era should be very beautiful... Peach blossoms, pear blossoms, apricot blossoms... Last night, there was a spring rain, and there must have been a lot of fresh bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest... The heartbeat inexplicably accelerated: "Da Ming... I'm coming..."
Yang Li's thoughts were a little trance, shocked, unwilling, bitter, and even curious and yearning for this era... All the chaotic mood is calmed down in the breath of spring.
I don't know how long it took, a strong confidence appeared on his face, and the corners of his mouth slanted slightly, it was the kind of confidence and determination that he was bound to live like a person in this world.
Can you not be confident?
Not to mention that Yang Li, as the youngest genius in the field of ultraneutrinos, just because of the existence of this system in his mind, he has the confidence to despise everything.
A few women dressed as maids walked towards them, and they heard someone muttering from afar: "Three days later, it will be the old lady's 60th birthday, I heard that the lord is going to do a big job this time, and the nobles of the entire Fuzhou Mansion will come at least half of it..."
"That's not it, the lord is now the city to lift the division, and the people who want to tie up our lord have broken through the threshold a few days ago, and I heard that the invitation sent out by the lord has been fried to dozens of taels of silver..."
"I also heard that the eldest lady invited our most famous Jinhua opera troupe in Fuzhou to the house to perform for the old lady, tsk... Won't we also have a blessing for our eyes when the time comes? ”
"Beauty doesn't kill you, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and go to the kitchen to serve food, the old lady just came back from the capital yesterday, don't miss the old lady's breakfast time..."
……
A few maids walked in the direction of the kitchen, turned a corner, and just happened to see Yang Li basking in the sun at the door.
"Yo... Have you come back to life? Is this finally leaving? ”
The maid who walked in front stopped and looked sarcastic.
"Zizhu, what are you talking about, people must not be sick at all, this is deliberately saying that the illness is cheating in our Baifu to eat and drink, the house has been hidden for three months, this is really unbearable, and people are not allowed to come out to change their breath..."
Another maid spat in disgust and stepped forward, looked directly at Yang Li, and said in a weird manner: "Mother and son are not good things, that Zhou family eats our Baifu food all day long, but secretly does work outside to make private money, that is, the old lady has a good heart, if I change it... I have already killed these two shameless liars, and it is better to have this food and raise a dog than to give it to these two white-eyed wolves..."
