Jiangdu Kingdom, Guangling City, Qingyunli.

In an old but neat courtyard, a young man raised his head and squinted his eyes, looked at the chirping birds on the trees in the courtyard, and sighed quietly: "What a fool... he is so stupid."

"Xiao'er, is it you?" A crisp voice came from the west wing. "Why are you getting up? Are you getting better?"

The boy raised his hand, rubbed his eyebrows, squeezed out a smile, and responded loudly, "Mother, I'm getting better."

"This is great. It seems that Grandma Chu is still very effective. It will be fine once. Xiao'er, you will catch a chicken later and thank her. Let's go see Tu Niu'er. You have been sick for two days and he is very scared. He has come a few times but never dared to enter the door."

"Oh." The boy responded, smiled helplessly again, and the appearance of an old woman and a young man appeared in his mind. The old woman's face was full of wrinkles, her eyebrows and lips were drawn, and her face was merciless. The boy was tizzy, strong, and honest and cunning.

These are the two people who are most clearly visible in his remaining memories after his mother who was weaving cloth in the West Chamber: one is the witch who called him the soul, who had just met him once yesterday; the other is his best friend, Da Niuer, who was famous as a ox. As his name is, he has a good strength like a cow.

"He" himself was Liang Xiao. He was originally just an ordinary Han boy, but now he has a soul that is two thousand years later.

It has been several days since Liang Xiao had not figured out how such a bloody thing could have happened. I just yearn for the Han Dynasty and have a little research on the history of the Han Dynasty, but I never thought about traveling to the Han Dynasty.

He originally wanted to lie down for two more days and get used to the new environment, but when he heard that Grandma Chu asked Grandma Chu to give him a chicken, he couldn't lie down anymore. For this family, a chicken is not a small number. There are only five chickens in total, and they are all raw laying hens. My mother specially raised it to supplement him with nutrition.

Two or three poached eggs a day gave him a tall and strong physique among his peers.

Now, he was holding a stone pottery bowl in his hand, and two oily poached eggs were lying in the bowl. When he saw the yellow and glittery color, he felt nauseous. As a person who was used to the concept of green and environmentally friendly nutrition, he had a bad impression of this poached egg and really had no appetite.

Liang Xiao thought for a while and walked into the west wing with a bowl.

There was a loom near the window in the west wing. "His" mother, Mama Liang, was sitting behind the loom, busy with hands and feet. Hearing his footsteps, Mama Liang looked up at him and continued to be busy. "Have you finished eating?"

"My mother, you eat it." Liang Xiao walked to Liang Mama, held the loom, and handed the bowl to her. Liang Mama saw the unmoved poached egg in the bowl, and couldn't help but feel curious. "Why didn't you eat it?"

"Mother, I'm ready, you eat."

Mama Liang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Silly boy, this is made by my mother for you. How can I eat it? Take it away quickly and don't dirty the brocade. I have to weave this brocade out quickly. The Ding family has urged me twice, and it will be impossible to delay the construction period."

"It is precisely because my mother is about to rush the construction period that I let you eat." Liang Xiao insisted: "My mother is the pillar of the family. If you are exhausted, who will support this family?"

Mama Liang blinked her eyes, as if she thought it made sense. But she still didn't take the bowl. "Xiao'er, my mother has received your wish, but you should eat this chicken. My mother is supporting her family now, but if she depends on you in the future. Without a good health, how can she become a military officer and a general?

"I am a marquis and a general?" Liang Xiao widened his eyes and was shocked. My mother, your expectations are too high, your son can't do it.

Mama Liang pinched Liang Xiao's face intimately. "Of course, my son is born as a good material for leading troops to fight. In the future, he will be granted a title of marquis and his descendants will be rich and noble, and his mother can enjoy the happiness."

"But, my mother, our family..." Liang Xiao wanted to say something but stopped. As far as he knew, it was not easy to be an official in the Han Dynasty. At this time, there was no imperial examination, so one could either rely on one's ancestors or recommendations. In the case of the Liang family, it seemed that they could not count on them.

"Worrying that my family is not enough?" Mama Liang seemed to guess what her son was thinking. "You don't have to worry about this. How many years will you have to stay away from Fu Ji? My mother will suffer a little hardship and weave more brocade, and she will definitely save enough at that time."

Liang Xiao smiled bitterly. Although he didn't know where his mother's confidence came from, she must have thought it simple. As far as he knew, the Han Dynasty implemented the system of recommendation, which is often called filial and honest. Filial and honest people are filial sons and honest officials. There are only one or two people in a county every year, which is more difficult than recommending college. How could it be his turn to be a poor boy like him?

Family fortune is just a basic condition for becoming an official, and it does not mean that you can become an official with a family fortune. What's more, there is a world of difference between becoming an official and being a marquis and being appointed as a general. I obviously took this matter too simply, thinking that hard work can really make you rich, and that you can become an official by meeting the family fortune standards. It's really naive.

He stood up. "Mother, I'll go thank Grandma Chu, you eat the eggs... the chickens, the task of getting rich depends on you." Without waiting for Mama Liang to speak, he slipped out - he really couldn't swallow the lush poached egg, so he could only leave as the best strategy.

"Hey, this kid..." Liang Mama wanted to call Liang Xiao, but when she saw that Liang Xiao had left, she had to give up. She looked at the eggs in the pottery bowl, shook her head, and smiled with relief. "This kid has grown up and knows to be filial to her mother."

...

Liang Xiao grabbed a chicken, went out, and went straight to Grandma Chu's house. Grandma Chu and Grandma Chu were not in the same place as the Liang family, and Liang Xiao left the house and had to go out of the house. He used to see such descriptions in the information, but now he is still very moved when he sees the high inner walls on both sides of the road with his own eyes.

If he remembers it well, Guangling City was the Yangzhou city of later generations, which was "fireworks in Yangzhou in March". Unlike the cities he remembered that there were commercial areas, the market and residential areas were separated at this time, with neat inner walls along the streets, there were no shops, and there were no pedestrians on the road.

It is during spring plowing that most adults go out of the city to farm. Even underage children will go to the ground together and do some farm work to the best of their ability. Life in the farmhouse is tense and they cannot afford to raise idle people. Only rogue boys like Liang Xiao will do nothing and wander around.

The Liang family has no land because the Liang family is a single-parent family and has no strong labor. Liang Xiao's mother, Mama Liang, is good at weaving brocades, but is not good at farming, so she never occupied the fields and made a living by weaving brocades. This is probably the reason why she hopes that Liang Xiao will become an official - she can't expect her son to inherit the brocade weaving skills, which is a work done by women.

However, according to Liang Xiao's remaining memories, it can be seen that "he" is not a red flower boy. To put it more directly, the real Liang Xiao is a scoundrel. He is a child's department for him. He does a lot of unethical things such as kicking widows' doors and digging out graves. When he took over the body, he was robbing the tomb. Somehow, he fainted and became the current Liang Xiao when he woke up.

He was carried back by Tu Niuer from Jinkui Mountain in the western suburbs. It was the best place in Guangling County with the most tombs. However, Tu Niuer did not tell Liang Mai about this. Liang Mai may not know that he was a gangster and even thought he was a good baby.

Obviously, he has a doting mother.

Liang Xiao went to Grandma Chu's house. Grandma Chu was not at home, the door was locked, and I didn't know where to cheat money. Liang Xiao carried the chicken and followed the route I remembered, fumbled westward, preparing to go out of the city to the western suburbs. The west of the city was a place where rogues gathered. If he guessed it well, Tu Niuer would probably hang out there.

After leaving the city, Liang Xiao was stunned for a moment when he looked up, and the feeling of a different life suddenly surged into his heart.

In front of me is a vast ocean, boundless water extending to the horizon. The reeds are clustered by the water, and the sails are weaving, making the scenery of the country.

"This... this is the Yangtze River." Liang Xiao was stunned for a long time before he slowly realized that he was in Guangling City in the Han Dynasty, not Yangzhou City in the 21st century. The vast Yangtze River reached the city directly under the city. The prosperous city of later generations did not even have a shadow, only a wide area of ​​water, I don't know when it would slowly surface.

Liang Xiao walked to the waterside and looked at the Yangtze River from afar, wanting to see the Beigu Mountain opposite. Unfortunately, he saw nothing, just like the glorious future his mother, Madam Liang, expected, had no shadow at all.

"I'm dizzy, my future is vague." Liang Xiao couldn't help but squeeze: "When I think of the long and endless heaven and earth, how can I not cry in tears?"

"Young man, look at your handsome personality and natural appearance, why are you so unafraid of ambition? Tsk tsk, it's a pity for this good face."

A hoarse voice came from behind. Liang Xiao turned around and saw that it was a prisoner wearing a half-old ochre suit. He had a beard and thin face. He had one eye blind, and only one right eye was left. However, the only right eye was shining and fierce, which made Liang Xiao feel chilled.

"Who are you……"

"I'm just a prisoner, a disabled person. However, I don't like you so lack of ambition, so I can't help but say a few words." The prisoner looked him up and down, and suddenly frowned: "Where are you from, and whose name is?"

Liang Xiao was also a little annoyed, and anger surged from his bones. Even he himself couldn't figure out where the anger came from. "When we meet by chance, why did I tell you the name? Judging from your appearance, you don't look like a good person, right?"

The prisoner was stunned but not angry. He laughed and limped away. "It's interesting, I've misunderstood. It turns out that he is still a tough guy. You should do it yourself, don't let down your talent."

Liang Xiao was inexplicably surprised. What talent do I have? He just said that I am a handsome man and born with a strange appearance. Could it be that I am the legendary talent? No wonder I am so confident. It turns out that I am indeed extraordinary, and even this prisoner can see it.

Liang Xiao walked to the waterside, squatted down, and took a look at him by the water. After watching for a long time, he could not see any difference between him. Although his facial features were upright, he was not considered a handsome person.

Alas, he must be afraid that I would beat him up, so he deliberately said good things and misled me, so he could take the opportunity to escape.

Don't let me see you next time, otherwise you will be nice. Liang Xiao shook his fists at the water surface and tried his best to look fierce. However, after looking at it, he still felt that he was not bad in nature and should belong to the kind of education that can be taught well.
