The inner room.

Bai Tian sat upright, looking at Jiang Dai with a nervous expression.

Jiang Dai, who had long since confirmed that Bai Tian was a time traveler and very likely a contemporary of hers, was relaxed, unhurried, and even wanted to snack on some melon seeds if she had any.

That's just the composure of intelligent people.

"You...you also came from another time?"

Bai Tian swallowed hard and carefully checked again.

Jiang Dai tucked the yellowed old quilt around Juanjuan and said, "Mmm."

Very nonchalant.

Bai Tian asked hesitantly, "Then what about the secret code we used a few days ago...?"

Jiang Dai: "I'm not stupid. Why would I rush to confirm the identity of a time traveler? What if that person wants to harm me?"

Bai Tian: "Huh?"

No, sis, that makes him look really dumb!

Jiang Dai: "Don't you know? In female-oriented novels, when people from the same hometown meet, their eyes well up with tears. In our situation, we would even start dating right away, but..."

"In your male-oriented novels, when you travel through time and meet someone from your hometown, the first person you attack is that person! After all, you all have lofty ambitions, wanting to change dynasties and become the only time traveler."

Xiao Bai, who rarely reads online novels and only knows how to play games and go out to play, said: "Huh?"

Jiang Dai looked at Bai Tian, ​​who was in a daze and could only say "Ah".

I couldn't help but click my tongue.

"Seeing how dim-witted you are, and considering that a new map is about to be built at home, I've decided to tell you my identity!"

Bai Tian: "This isn't a good adjective."

Jiang Dai nodded: "It's nothing. I'm just praising your innocence and naivety. You're a good man!"

Bai Tian:......

Jiang Dai: "I'm not lying to you. If I didn't think you were kind-hearted, I would never have told you my identity."

Bai Tian: "Alright, I'll take that as a compliment."

Jiang Dai extended her hand: "Let's get to know each other again. Jiang Dai, 25 years old, from xx, Hebei, a third-tier celebrity. You probably don't know, but the reason I time-traveled..."

At this point, Jiang Dai's smile vanished completely.

"I don't know either. Maybe I stayed up too late and slept myself back to normal."

Bai Tian: "Pfft..."

However, he didn't finish his "pfft"; under Jiang Dai's gaze, he forcefully suppressed the smile on his lips.

"Bai Tian, ​​25 years old, was originally a second-generation rich kid. After graduation, he started a small company in the internet industry. So, when he transmigrated, he didn't have any practical skills."

Jiang Dai's lips twitched: "I don't know what they want us to do after we've traveled through time!"

Bai Tian asked doubtfully, "Don't novels often feature characters with cheat codes like time travel? Can you use cheat codes where you are?"

Jiang Dai: "Don't even think about it if you don't have a cheat code!"

"None of the usual time-travel tropes, like predicting the plot, having a system, having a space, or the recently popular mind-reading and wind-summoning abilities, or the fact that time travelers are always royalty or nobles, are present in this game."

Bai Tian:......

"I really want to go home!" Jiang Dai relaxed and flopped onto the bed with a "plop": "I just finished my work and was about to relax with my paycheck, so I came here."

Bai Tian sighed: "Who isn't like that! I didn't want to come here either. I have everything over there. Even if I lose it all, my parents will cover for me."

Jiang Dai gave him the middle finger: "Stop flaunting your wealth!"

Bai Tian touched the tip of his nose: "This is my daily routine."

"cut……"

Jiang Dai complained, but a sense of peace settled over her.

They chatted casually, speaking in a tone they both knew well, talking about things familiar to them as young people, as if they had returned to modern times.

It's like suddenly encountering another drifter on a vast, boundless sea.

Even if they don't know if they will be rescued, at least psychologically they are no longer so panicked and helpless, scaring themselves and overthinking.

Jiang Dai sighed: "Actually, I really want to open my eyes and go back to the modern world. I don't know if my parents will worry about me."

Bai Tian sighed, "I guess only my maternal grandparents worry about me. My mom is always busy with her career, and my dad... is busy chasing after his youngest daughter."

Jiang Dai suddenly paused, "Your dad's name isn't Bai Mang Huo, is it?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

Jiang Dai took a deep breath: "Your father once wanted to pursue me."

Bai Tian:......

"Wait, was the reason my dad offended the Jiang family of ancient martial arts last time because of you?"

Jiang Dai sneered: "That's probably it."

Bai Tian:......

What should I do if I feel a little embarrassed or ashamed?

After the two argued for a while, Jiang Dai started to get down to business.

“The problem now is that I think Kang An will definitely cause trouble, especially after the sweet potatoes were planted. Since he was able to follow Liang Tian’er here, he must be able to figure out where the sweet potatoes came from.”

“Even if it wasn’t us, he would still suspect it was us. He’s obviously a suspicious person by nature! If we had stayed in the village, he probably wouldn’t have bothered to cause us any trouble.”

"Moreover, everyone around us is a neighbor, so we'll definitely help each other out if anything happens. After getting to know them, I've figured out that, apart from a few older women who are a bit gossipy, the village is generally quite united."

“But now that we’ve traveled through time, we can’t stay in the village forever. You don’t know how to farm, and neither do I. We’ll starve to death in the village unless we keep picking up silver.”

"The four children left behind by the original owner definitely need to go to school and learn to read and write. Although I hated going to school at the time, they really did need to go to school."

"In conclusion, we definitely need to go to town, and once we get there, trouble is inevitable."

Bai Tian: "Where is Liang Tian'er? We offended Kang An because of her, why don't we seek her protection?"

Jiang Dai lowered her eyes: "It's not impossible, but you have to understand that women's status is not high in this era. Liang Tian'er is in such a hurry to use the seasoning, and you can see from Kang An's tone that he despises Liang Tian'er."

"Therefore, I suspect that the little girl's situation is not very good either."

Bai Tian: "How do you know so much?"

Why couldn't he, who was also in the room and listened to the whole conversation, think of all this?

Jiang Dai: ...

"How could I, a detail-oriented person who has watched countless palace dramas and suspense dramas, not notice all this scheming and intrigue?"

Bai Tian remained silent, only giving Jiang Jie a thumbs-up.

"Aren't you a member of the Chiang family? You know Tai Chi, so your martial arts skills must be excellent."

Bai Tian looked at Jiang Dai expectantly: "Why don't you teach me martial arts? And didn't we have our swords forged?"

Jiang Dai, who was actually considered the weakest member of the family: ...

It's really presumptuous of you to bring up such a sensitive topic.
