Chapter 1 Child Bride

"God, I'm not as deceitful as you."

Although it is only September, the weather is just like the Daqian Dynasty that is about to be in chaos. It is so abnormal that there are already snowflakes falling.

Central Qizhou.

Quanzi Village in the mountains.

In a dilapidated thatched house on the edge of the village.

Li Yuanjing leaned against the door and looked at the snow falling in the sky, and had to accept the reality with a wry smile.

He really traveled through time...

He is no longer Mr. Li, whom everyone in future generations would like to flatter when they meet him, the son-in-law of the president of a tens of billions listed company, but... he has become a descendant of the most humble craftsman family in this great dynasty... …

Li Yuanjing rubbed his temples and sorted out his thoughts with a headache.

The body he traveled through was also called Li Yuanjing. As a descendant of a lowly craftsman family, the Li family was not allowed to own land at all and could only make a living by doing work for others.

Fortunately, Li Yuanjing's father, Li Laoshi, although he was taciturn, was very good at masonry work and had a good reputation in the villages and towns near Quanzi Village.

Although the life of this family of four is still hard, it can still be maintained.

Maybe he has suffered enough from his humble status.

From the time when Li Yuanjing was very young, Li Laoshi sent Li Yuanjing to the county school, hoping that one day Li Yuanjing would be able to obtain fame, get rid of his humble status, and become successful.

pity.

Li Yuanjing's front is really a lump. After studying for more than ten years, he is almost in his prime years, but he has not even been admitted as a scholar. He really does not deserve Li Laoshi's painstaking training.

What's even scarier is...

The hemp rope specializes in breaking at the thinnest point, and fate specializes in playing tricks on the poor...

Just seven days ago, Li Laoshi and his wife, who went to work in a nearby county, encountered robbers on their way back.

Not only were the wages for two months of hard work gone, but my life was also not saved...

In the end, although the government sent the bodies of the poor couple back, the family spent all their savings in order to bury them.

even.

He also owed the town's big landowner "Xue Dashanren" four taels of usury.

And Li Yuanjing was an inexperienced person in his previous life. When Zhao Laoshi and his wife were buried the day before yesterday, he had a quarrel with the helpers sent by Mr. Xue Dashan over a trivial matter of a few pennies.

result……

He was shot directly from behind...

This gave Li Yuanjing the opportunity to occupy the magpie's nest.

"Yu Niang~~~."

"Auntie has told you all this, why don't you girl understand? If you are so determined to follow that good-for-nothing Li Yuanjing, how will you survive in the future?"

While Hu was thinking about it, someone suddenly heard someone talking outside, especially his name, which made Li Yuanjing alert.

Seeing a lot of dry firewood at the base of the wall next to him, Li Yuanjing hurriedly stepped on the dry firewood, his eyes slightly exposed from the wall to check the situation outside.

Just seeing——

A middle-aged woman wearing an eye-catching red cotton-padded jacket, with makeup on her face, was entangled with a slim girl carrying a lot of dry firewood on her back.

And if that pretty girl is not his child bride, then which one is she?

"Yu Niang~~~~"

"Auntie, can I still harm you?"

"think it yourself."

"It turns out that Li Yuanjing, that sick young man, just failed to pass the examination as a scholar. He still has his parents to help him, so he can still live."

"But now, his parents are dead, and the autumn tax will be paid soon. You also owe Mr. Xue Dashan four taels of usury, and Master Leng Shan's Majesty will soon have to pay for the road money."

"Do you think your family can afford at least a dozen taels of silver?"

"Yu Niang~~~~"

"My aunt is here, please listen to her advice. Only by selling yourself for money can you truly love your sick man!"

Seeing that Yu Niang remained unmoved, the woman in the red cotton jacket hurriedly ran after Yu Niang and continued to increase her offensive.

Li Yuanjing's face couldn't help but darken.

He had already recognized the identity of the woman in the red cotton coat, and it was Wang Cuihua, the matchmaker from their Quanzi Village!

What's the meaning?

He has just woken up, and this rustic and affectionate matchmaker is going to come over and take advantage of him?

This made Li Yuanjing quickly alert and his mind became much clearer.

in memory.

The Daqian Dynasty has gone through nearly three hundred years. It is like an old man who is about to lose all his teeth. He is already dying and is about to die.

In the middle of the court, treacherous ministers are in power and the atmosphere is full of chaos.

Outside the court, the Liaodong aliens in the northeast are becoming more powerful and causing constant troubles, and the grassland aliens in the northwest are harassing them every day.

The key point is that the weather in the past few years has been extremely abnormal, and it has been terribly cold.

During the Daqian Dynasty, there were successive droughts in the north and floods in the south. In order to pacify the foreign tribes, the court continued to increase various exorbitant taxes and levies.

Even the bandits in the nearby mountains have to collect protection fees from the people.

Due to this heavy exploitation and oppression, wars are spreading all over the world, and there are faint signs of the end of the world.

When it comes to Quanzi Village, things are even less optimistic. Many people have even begun to sell their sons and daughters to make ends meet.

"Auntie Wang!"

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it."

Li Yuanjing's face was looking uncertain, but Yu Niang, who was carrying dry firewood that was at least two or three times her size, suddenly stopped.

She said to Wang Cuihua seriously with a sullen face:

"Aunt Wang, I have been raised by my parents since I was a child. I am born to my brother, and my death is my brother's ghost! Please take me back. I will find a way to solve the foreign debts of my brother and me!"

Saying that, Yu Niang ignored Wang Cuihua and walked towards the door of the house with firm steps.

When she arrived at the door, Yu Niang suddenly pinched the black jade bead that had been hanging on her chest since she was born.

He muttered but said firmly:

"Brother, I promised my parents that I will take good care of you. Even if I sell this bead, I will definitely pay off those debts!"

"Hey!"

"You ungrateful little coward!"

Wang Cuihua still wanted to chase Yuniang, but she saw that Yuniang had already entered the yard, so she had to give up.

But then she showed a sneer and said in a sinister voice:

"Little coquettish hoof, I can let you run away from the errand that Mr. Xue Dashan gave me. Just wait for me!"

After saying that, she twisted her plump waist and hips coquettishly and walked quickly down the mountain.



"ah."

"Brother, you are not well yet. Why did you come out in such a cold weather?"

In the yard.

Yuniang was shocked when she saw that Li Yuanjing was wearing only a tattered sheepskin coat and was in a daze.

He quickly put the firewood aside and quickly supported Li Yuanjing:

"Brother, you go to the house to rest first, and I will go pick up firewood and cook for you right away..."

Li Yuanjing forced himself to smile, and was about to speak when he suddenly froze...

because……

Only then did he really see Yu Niang’s little face...

Even though Li Yuanjing was already used to seeing beautiful women in later generations, he was still a little stunned by this little girl Yu Niang.

It is true that Yu Niang is only fourteen years old this year, but her little body is already quite impressive, and her appearance is not to be chosen.

On her round oval face, her eyes are like autumn water, her nose is straight, her rosy mouth is as delicate as jelly, and her skin is as white and delicate as snow.

Nothing like the roughness of ordinary farm girls.

This is obviously not the maintenance of various expensive cosmetics in later generations, this is truly natural and powerful genes.

Even if Yu Niang hasn't fully grown yet, I'm afraid it's enough to instantly kill 99% of the female stars in future generations.

Li Yuanjing never thought that his child bride would be so beautiful. Why didn't the original owner have much impression in his memory?

"Snapped."

After a moment, Li Yuanjing slapped his forehead hard and finally figured out the cause and effect.

Because Li Yuanjing used to be a fool.

Over the years in the county school, he didn't learn much about knowledge, but he learned 90% of the poor and coquettish sentiments of those scholars.

turn out to be……

This guy has always fantasized about becoming a scholar, winning the imperial examination, being named on the gold medal list, and then marrying a famous lady as his wife. He has never even looked at Yu Niang...

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing Li Yuanjing make such a move, Yu Niang was frightened. She bit her red lips and hesitated for a moment, then said firmly:

"Brother, wait a moment, I will go to the town to hire a doctor for you right away..."

Seeing that Yu Niang turned around and was about to go to the town more than ten miles away to ask for a doctor, Li Yuanjing finally realized and hurriedly grabbed Yu Niang and said in a hoarse voice:

"Yu Niang, brother is fine. Why are you running around in such a cold weather? What if you freeze your body?"

Seeing Li Yuanjing's serious look, Yu Niang was a little stunned and looked at Li Yuanjing in surprise.

elder brother……

Are you caring about yourself?

Doesn't he hate himself so much?
