After Su Qingqing finished memorizing a passage of "Three Character Classic", the excited mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pulled Su Qingqing into the table for dinner, and their attitude towards her was more respectful than just now.

Perhaps because it was late, the light in the house was not good, and the family was reluctant to use the oil lamp, so the dining table was moved to the threshold to be illuminated by the remaining twilight in the sky.

In the late Tang Dynasty, there were already a lot of beds and high stools, and this house was too, and everyone would not sit on the ground when they ate.

Su Qingqing observed silently and found that the bowl of rice porridge placed in front of herself and the child on the dinner table was slightly thick, and the porridge in the bowl of Zhang and her mother-in-law was very thin.

There were five dishes on the table, a plate of pickles, a bowl of wild vegetable soup with frangipani, a pot of saltwater shrimp, a pot of crabs, and a steamed green fish.

In addition to seafood, it is a dish, and it is really the table of people by the sea.

Zhang opened his mouth and said, "Please Sister Su raise the chopsticks first." ”

Su Qingqing was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, and she couldn't care about being polite at this time, so she immediately picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bowl to eat.

Then Zhang's mother-in-law moved her chopsticks to put a pickle into the bowl, then Zhang's, and finally the child.

It can be seen that although this family is poor, it is quite well-behaved, and the order of the guest of honor, the elder and the youngest is clear.

Combined with Zhang's still Sven conversation, their family should be a bit cultured, maybe it is a down-and-out family.

Zhang and his mother-in-law wanted to chat with Su Qingqing, but she was so hungry that she was so hungry that she just buried her head in cooking.

A bowl of porridge was quickly eaten with pickles, and Zhang added another bowl to her, while their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and children did not add any more rice.

Two bowls of porridge with wild vegetable egg drop soup and a few bites of pickles in the stomach, without any oil and water.

Fortunately, the amount of shrimp and crab on the table was relatively large, and the shells that Su Qingqing peeled off were piled up on the table, and he was half-full by relying on seafood.

This month's crab is thin, and I can't eat any essence. The fattest crab is the golden autumn September and October, the so-called "autumn high crab fat".

In modern society, because of the shameless islanders dumping nuclear sewage into the Pacific Ocean, the value of seafood in the Pacific Ocean has been greatly reduced, and many fishermen can only sell boats to change jobs.

Su Qingqing hadn't eaten such high-quality Pacific seafood for a long time, even if the crab was very thin, it wouldn't delay her from eating.

Just, it's not enough! I still want to eat!

But she was too embarrassed to ask for it anymore and silently put down the bowl.

After chatting again, Su Qingqing prevaricated with the nonsense she had thought about in her stomach, saying that she used to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests with her master, and then she decided to go down the mountain and enter the WTO when her master went to the fairy.

The decision to walk the rivers and lakes as a hermit in the mountains was mainly due to the consideration of the 369 and other classes in the Tang Dynasty.

The hermits in the mountains were still recognized by the imperial court, although they were not as sought and valued as they were during the Zhenguan period.

If he can't go back to modern times, Su Qingqing thinks that he must at least rely on modern knowledge to be a good citizen, and he can't live as a lowly person.

The Tang Dynasty now lacks a taxed population, so the mountain people and homeless people are sometimes incorporated as long as they can pay the minimum tax, not to mention the cultured hermits.

In this kind of world, it is difficult for good people to be treated by the imperial court, which is basically the fate of leeks, and there are 5 people on the head of a farmer to offer, and the lowly status is directly stipulated by the official "law is better than livestock".

In any case, it cannot be classified as a displacer.

Su Qingqing put on a gloomy look of the past that could not be looked back, and only briefly said a rough idea.

When encountering details that are difficult to answer, they are silent.

Zhang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did not doubt Su Qingqing's rhetoric, judging from her dress and conversation, what she said was still quite convincing, not to mention that she had just taught their children a piece of "Three Character Classic" before the meal, which could not be faked.

Because Su Qingqing had nowhere to go "just down the mountain", he was naturally warmly retained that night and lived in Tian's house.

Of the five stone houses of the Tian family, one is the bedroom of Zhang's mother-in-law, one is the bedroom (two beds) shared by Zhang and Zhizi, and the remaining three are the firewood room, the study room and the main hall.

Su Qingqing was reluctant to squeeze a bed with Zhang, so tonight she slept on a simple bunk in the study temporarily.

Being able to let her sleep in the study instead of the firewood room also means that the Tian family is indeed very grateful and respectful to her.

For most Datang people, the study room is equivalent to a treasure trove, and it is easy to not allow outsiders to enter, so that distinguished guests have this treatment.

Through a night of communication, Su Qingqing already has a little understanding of the world and this family.

Before the crossing, she was in Xiaoxiang, the capital of modern Hunan Province, and now the land under her feet is already a small fishing village in Guishan County, Xunzhou, Lingnan Road.

She had no impression of where the first place of water was located, but with the speed of ancient chariots and horses, it was impossible to be too far away from this small fishing village.

In other words, she traveled from modern Xiaoxiang to Xunzhou, the Lingnan Road in the late Tang Dynasty, which is really far enough.

This small fishing village in Guishan County, where is the corresponding city in modern times, Su Qingqing has no idea.

But since it belongs to Lingnan Dao, in the eyes of the common people of Chang'an and Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty, it must belong to the barbarian land where birds don't.

It's okay to be farther away from the central court, and there will be less turmoil.

Su Qingqing has traveled for thousands of years, and she has no obsession with going to the ancient city of Chang'an to see historical celebrities. Being able to live well and fill her stomach is what she wants to solve the most at present.

Zhang's mother-in-law's surname is He, no name, known as He, widowed in the prime of life, widowed in old age, and a hard-working person.

Zhang's husband was a medical officer before his death, and he was originally an errand boy in the county government. In layman's terms, he is a doctor who has an establishment in Datang, mainly treating civil servants in the county.

Later, he died of illness, and his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could identify and concoct medicinal materials, but they couldn't treat the disease with acupuncture.

Losing the monthly wages of the pillars of the family, relying only on the weaving and pulping of orphans and widows, it was difficult to continue in the county, so they simply cleaned up, returned to the rented house, returned to the ancestral house in the countryside, and relied on the clan to survive.

Because their family and the Tian clan patriarch's family have not yet produced five suits, and the Zhang family has learned some simple medical skills from her husband, she can show the nearby villagers a headache and brain fever, and then pick some herbs and sell them to the pharmacy in the town for money, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can barely survive in the village with their children.

Su Qingqing rashly crossed over to this unfamiliar place, with no power, no power, no legal identity, and his appearance was still very high, but in fact, the situation was not optimistic.

According to the background survey of the late Tang Dynasty, the human trafficking in Lingnan Road is very serious, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the hardest hit area.

Even though the central government of the Tang Dynasty has made great efforts to curb the phenomenon of human trafficking in the Lingnan region, and has issued decrees, it has had little effect.

On the one hand, Lingnan has a small arable area, miasma is everywhere, and the poor living environment leads to low productivity, coupled with the huge profits of human trafficking coveted by the local wealthy families, and the high mountains and emperors, the local bureaucracy has come up with many harsh taxes on the basis of the original taxes.

All kinds of unfavorable factors gathered, and the people of Lingnan struggled to survive and had to sell their children and daughters.

Thinking of this, Su Qingqing knew that he had been sold when he first woke up.

Human trafficking has been made into an industrial chain here, and when you meet a beauty like duckweed, isn't it a valuable commodity?

Wealth is moving!
