The worst time travel, surviving seven years of famine

The story of the ancient times is not a lie.

So on the way back to Lianhua Town from Guanyao Town, Gu Liang told his second aunt Li about the story of going up the mountain to collect herbs a few months ago, discovering the stone house, and picking up the scriptures. These are all real stories that happened to Gu Liang, so it is also immersive when telling them, and no one feels that they are fake.

However, the difference is that Gu Liang changed the incomplete copy of "Yu Han Fang" into "Tian Gong Kai Wu". "Tian Gong Kai Wu" was written in the Ming Dynasty and recorded various ancient Chinese skills and production tools. But in this era, there was no book "Tian Gong Kai Wu", and Gu Liang just borrowed his name.

In Gu Liang's story, he got a few pages of "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature". He could figure out the techniques such as ice powder and dried persimmons by himself according to the pictures and words on it. But because it was a fragment, he didn't know much.

Because Gu Liang's story was true and false, Li couldn't hear any problems. She just felt a little pity that such a good book didn't have a complete version. In this way, their family would not worry about making money with a complete version.

On the way back to Lianhua Town, Li passed by the village where her eldest sister got married. Li went out this time with some dried persimmons on her back, so she specially gave dried persimmons to her eldest sister.

Li's eldest sister was also a miserable person. She gave birth to three daughters in a row and was not well received by her husband's family. When Li found her, she was chopping wood at home with her youngest daughter on her back. She was only two years older than Li, but she looked like she was from the same generation as Old Lady Gu.

Li's elder sister was very reserved when she saw her second sister coming over suddenly. She wiped the dust off her face, fearing that her appearance would make her relatives laugh. However, her thin body, sallow face, and uncombed hair showed that she was not in a good condition.

Li asked with concern: "Sister, it's still cold in early spring, why are you wearing so little?"

"Oh, it's nothing. It's hot to work, so it's okay to wear less!" Li's elder sister hurriedly pulled her clothes to prove that she was not cold, but accidentally revealed several patches on her waist, which was very embarrassing. In order to ease the embarrassment, Li's elder sister hurriedly said: "Second sister, why did you come here without notifying me? I didn't prepare anything."

Li looked at the patched clothes on her elder sister and felt very distressed. Usually, she only saw her elder sister at her parents' home, and she was always dressed up, so she didn't see any problems. Today, she saw that her elder sister's clothes were made of the worst fabric, hard and not warm. I didn't expect that such clothes would be patched.

However, she did not want her elder sister to be embarrassed, so she could only follow her and say, "I went to Guanyao Town to buy some things and came back. I passed by your place and came to see you. Here, this is the dried persimmon cake I dried at home. It is very sweet, just like candied dates. You can take two packs to try and give some to my nieces."

"Oh, this is made by your family. My sister-in-law was in confinement at the end of last year, and her family also brought this dried persimmon cake when they came. I heard that this dried persimmon cake has become a gift here. You are so lucky, sister!" Sister Li was very happy to hear that this dried persimmon cake came from her sister's family. This thing is so popular, her sister's life will definitely be better.

The two sisters talked about the past for a long time at the door, talking and laughing. In the middle, Sister Li also advised Li to go back to her parents' home to apologize when she has time, saying that women rely on their parents' home, and no matter how their parents treat you, it is still their parents' home. She said that her younger brother Li Dezi has been punished and one of his legs is lame, so let the ice powder thing pass.

However, Li did not comment, she just smiled, after that incident, she had lost heart towards her family. Seeing her sister like this, Li's elder sister stopped trying to persuade her, as she was afraid that she would hurt her sister's feelings for her. After all, her sister had come to give her something good.

Just as the two sisters were talking to each other, a sour voice came from the house: "Sister, I asked you to chop wood for so long and you haven't finished it yet. Are you taking the opportunity to be lazy? Hurry up and chop the wood and come to help my son wash his diapers. If you don't hurry up, I will tell mom and you will have no food to eat tonight."

As the last word was said, a woman holding a baby came out of the house. It seemed that she had just given birth. The woman saw Li's elder sister holding hands with Li, and guessed at a glance that Li was Li's elder sister's family.

However, the woman's tone did not change when she saw that Li's eldest sister's family had arrived. She still said sourly, "The family is here, but we don't have any extra food. Go back quickly after meeting them, otherwise you won't be able to see them at night."

Clear the way. "

Seeing the young woman like this, Li was so angry that she wanted to tear her apart. But Li's eldest sister stopped her and said that the woman was her husband's sister-in-law and had just given birth to a son, so she was arrogant.

But Li was still angry and said angrily: "This filthy thing, she thinks she has given birth to a boy, so why should she be proud? She should be proud in front of her husband. Why is she proud in front of outsiders?"

Gu Liang, who had been quietly eating persimmons beside him, couldn't stand it anymore and said to Li's eldest sister: "Auntie, you two are sisters-in-law. According to seniority, you are her elder sister. How can she order you to do things? It's not your job to wash diapers. How can she have the nerve to complain and make you skip meals. "

Eldest sister Li sighed deeply, turned around and said to Li: "Sister, while you can give birth now, you must give birth to a son, otherwise your life in your husband's house..."

Eldest sister Li stopped talking about this, and the rest is understood by those who understand. This is eldest sister Li's husband's house, and Li and Gu Liang can't do anything, so they have to say goodbye to each other and set off on the road home. Before leaving, Gu Liang also took a few dozen coins from the space and gave them to eldest sister Li, asking her to buy some ointment to wipe her frostbitten hands, and the remaining money to buy two steamed buns to fill her stomach when she has no food.

When she returned, Li was in a very low mood. Gu Liang knew what she was thinking, so he comforted his second aunt Li, saying that it didn't matter if Li didn't have a son. With him around, this kind of thing would never happen in the Gu family, and she would never be discriminated against for not having a son.

Li was very moved after hearing this, and smiled and said that she would never oppose anything Gu Liang did in the future, and she would definitely support anything Gu Liang wanted to do at home.

Li's sudden statement was not Gu Liang's original intention, and Gu Liang didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain, and he got the unconditional support of his second aunt. Gu Liang just instinctively, as a person who had been under nine years of compulsory education, It's just the attitude that educated people should have, both men and women are the same.

After the two returned home, Gu Liang did not say anything about going to Guanyao Town to buy wine jars. As for Li, she naturally would not say anything after she had just expressed her position, and everything was as if nothing had happened.

It was not until a few days later that a group of people moved a bunch of jars into the Gu family, and then Mrs. Gu and Mr. Gu learned that Gu Liang did not return the silver to the Xu family, but bought so many bottles and jars.

The two were so angry that they were ready to beat Gu Liang on the spot. Eight taels of silver, ordinary people may not be able to earn so much money in a year. Gu Liang, an eleven-year-old child, used it without saying a word and didn't tell them.

Fortunately, under Li's mediation, Gu Liang was not beaten. Moreover, the money had been paid, and the jar had already entered the house. They couldn't do anything, and could only think about returning it to the Xu family when they had money in the future.

Gu Liang felt that he had caused trouble for himself at this time, and he would have to tell Xu Lingjun later. After this incident, when the old man Gu and his partner had money next time, they might not ask Gu Liang to pay it back, but they would pay it back themselves. He also informed them to prevent any mistakes.
