Chapter 2 Life is First of All to Be Able to Eat Well (Part I)

Feeling that the corners of his mouth were a little hot and salty, Tang Que slowly woke up, he knew that it was the woman covered in patches who came to feed her son, she didn't know that her son had actually changed just three days ago.

Tang Que still didn't open his eyes like he had two days ago, and he pretended to be unconscious two days ago because he hadn't understood his situation yet, and he always thought he was dreaming. And now he still hasn't opened his eyes because he doesn't know what to do with this woman. That is, his titular mother.

"I don't know how many times this chicken soup has been hot?" Tonight, the woman is still feeding rice soaked in chicken soup, and the chicken soup is very thick because it is heated too many times, and the rice does not have the fragrance of the Northeast fragrant rice eaten in later generations, but scattered like the most inferior yellow brown rice in later generations.

Tang Que finished eating with the woman's movements, but the woman did not leave in a hurry after feeding the meal as she had done two days ago, and after putting the thick black pottery bowl in her hand on the log table next to the bed with one leg missing, the woman looked at Tang Que and was stunned.

Tang Que took advantage of the dim light in the room to open his eyes to a very small slit, this is a peasant woman with a wrinkled face, wearing patched clothes, what makes Tang Que feel good is that although the peasant woman's clothes are full of patches, they are very clean, and she can faintly smell the smell of saponob.

Tang Que found that although the peasant woman's eyes fell on her, she was actually drifting and out of focus, by the way, she was stunned. Looking at her most real face and expression after being stunned, Tang Que inexplicably thought of the image of Xianglin's sister-in-law in Lu Xun's "Blessing".

It's just that the peasant woman didn't murmur anything, but let the tears in her eyes slowly slide down in her stunned eyes, it should be said that such a scene is indeed very touching, so that Tang Que's heart can no longer maintain the indifference of the bystanders.

Silently stunned, silently weeping, about a pillar of incense, with a "squeak" sound of opening the door outside, the peasant woman woke up suddenly, and after hastily wiping a handful of tears, she probed Tang Que's forehead with her hand, and then turned around and went out of the room with a bowl.

At this moment, Tang Que felt more and more that the peasant woman was like Xianglin's sister-in-law, not only her expression just now, but also this calloused hand.

"The head of the house, he's back!" Through a cracked earthen wall, the voice from outside came in very clearly, and the peasant woman's voice was full of hope, "How is it, the red ginseng has been bought?" ”。

"How is Cheng'er today?" The man's voice also looked old, with a thick exhaustion.

"The fever has gone away a lot, but I haven't woken up yet. Red Ginseng ...... Bought it back? ”。

"No", there was a long silence after a hard sound, "The guy in the pharmacy said that this red ginseng came from Silla on the other side of the sea, and the price was more than sixty percent higher than the white ginseng that Cheng'er ate a few days ago, and I don't have enough money."

“…… More than sixty percent ...... We're not ...... How much worse? ”。

"If you want to buy two taels according to what Zhang Langzhong said, there is still a difference of one hundred and thirty-one wen, but I asked in the market today, and the Fangzhou red ginseng next door is cheaper, so I can save about twenty wen."

"One hundred and thirty-one articles...... Grandpa God, is it so bad? Our house ......".

"Please Langzhong, grab the medicine, and buy white ginseng to hang Cheng'er in front of you, the money from selling the old house has already been spent", the old man's voice was silent for a long time when he said this, "After a day of driving, my legs are indeed weak, wait for me to rest and go to Baocheng to have a look."

"Can Po Cheng be rich? Aren't you embarrassing your daughter Orchid", with a squeak, the peasant woman who sat down also fell into silence, this silence made the atmosphere inside and outside the house very heavy, and even Tang Que inside felt a heavy depression.

After a long time, the peasant woman made up her mind and whispered: "Boss, you go and invite Liu Lizheng to bring him paper and pen, and by the way, invite Zhang Hua, who can read and write, to be a Chinese person." Liu Lizheng's wife has praised me several times for good tea and rice, and also said that her family still lacks a stove mother-in-law, two days ago I heard Liu San'er's family say an ear, now the city people in the market of good tea and rice stove mother-in-law can sell eight hangs, if there are good people in the middle of the mouth to say that together, you can also sell more than one and a half hanging, let's count according to eight hangs, you remember this price."

"Sell you to get it", the old man's voice was a little more urn-like, "Don't we still have an acre of paddy fields on the river beach?" ”。

"Paddy fields can't be sold ......", accompanied by the excited voice of the peasant woman, there was a crisp sound of "bang", obviously the stoneware bowl fell to the ground and was broken, "Our family only has this acre of paddy field left......".

Hearing this, Tang Que could no longer be silent, he finally understood why the house he lived in now was so dilapidated, and why the chicken soup he ate was hot and hot. If the previous sale of the house was the family's purpose to treat their son, it has nothing to do with him. Now, if he doesn't wake up again, he will have to sell people and land outside, and the money from selling people and land will really be spent on him.

Moreover, from the beginning of hearing this, Tang Que, who understood the cause of the events before and after, was indeed moved by this poor parents, and it was indeed a sin to watch such parents continue to be tortured.

"Ahh As soon as Tang Que snorted softly, the sound of talking outside suddenly stopped, and then he heard two chaotic sounds, the curtain of the house had been lifted like a gust of wind, and the peasant woman ran in.

"Cheng, you're awake", the peasant woman asked while tears came out, and the simple-looking man behind him was also surprised, and what he wanted to say was preempted by his wife, leaving his lips dry and unable to make a sound.

Looking at the surprised expressions of the two people in front of him who didn't know how to express themselves, Tang Que suddenly felt damp in his heart, "I've woken up, you...... You are not allowed to sell land, let alone sell people", the voice turned in his mouth, and Tang Que still didn't shout the word "Daddy" after all.

"Don't sell, we don't sell anything, that acre of paddy field will be kept for you to marry a daughter-in-law", Xu is too long to be sad during this time, so that her son suddenly woke up to the thing, the peasant woman couldn't help it anymore, she wiped her eyes with the corners of her clothes between words, the more she wiped her tears, and finally cried out happily. And the farmer also had red eyes, and unconsciously said "don't sell, don't sell", repeating over and over again.

Now that he has woken up, in order to make them more at ease, Tang Que simply supported his body and got out of bed, his body has been lying on the bed for a long time, and it is inevitable that his legs will be weak when he walks, although the two couples are also worried about their son's body, but seeing that he has been able to get out of bed and walk around, they finally showed a real smile after their emotions gradually calmed down.

Tang Que looked at such a smile, and his intuition was warm, and his heart was a little panicked.

With the support of the two couples, Duan Que walked out of the cracked house and came to the uneven courtyard, first looked at the houses around the village, and then looked at the mountains surrounding the village, and said softly to himself: "From now on, I will start a new life here."

Now that he has fully accepted the reality, Tang Que did not lie in bed anymore, and began to recover his body every day, and the inexplicable high fever of this body completely subsided the next day. It took more than ten days, and Tang Que, who had recovered to the age of seventeen, was already walking freely.

It was also through this period of time that Tang Que figured out the general environment of the times and the geographical environment in which he lived, although the original owner of this body couldn't tell the name of the year at all, only knew that the prince of Luling, who originally lived in the next state, returned to Beijing and became the emperor again, but Tang Que knew that he was in the Tang Zhongzong era not long after the end of the Tianwu Dynasty.

He was very glad to understand this, because the Tang Dynasty at this time was in the middle of the era from the beginning of Zhenguan to the heyday of Kaiyuan, that is, he was fortunate to travel to the most dynamic period of Chengping in the Tang Dynasty.
