It was a dark night and everything around had become quiet.
Only the firewood piles used for lighting around the tents were burning quietly, with crackling sounds heard from time to time.
In a tent, a man with his upper body wrapped in white cloth was lying on the bed.
At this time, his chest was heaving violently, blood was slowly soaking the white cloth, his brows were wrinkled and his face was full of pain, and he was obviously in a nightmare.
Tang Ming'an realized from the beginning that this was just his dream. He had planned to just watch quietly, after all, it was rare to dream about his little husband.
But I didn't expect that the development in the dream would become so strange.
He saw his eldest son fall down at the age of twelve, and after waking up he was a completely changed person and began to concentrate on studying.
One month later, he took the imperial examination and passed the title of scholar. Three years later, he took the provincial examination and passed the title of judge.
In this way, he will have a bright future.
However, half a month later, he was involved in a science fraud case.
Naturally, his family didn't believe that he would cheat, but they had no choice but to use their connections to get him out of prison. In the end, they spent a lot of money to get him out of prison.
But not long after, the eldest son was framed and the innocence of a girl was insulted.
The second son loved wood carving since he was young. One day, he was appreciated by a wealthy businessman and his career became very successful. However, unexpectedly, his right hand was broken.
After spending a large sum of money to heal his injuries, he was put in a sack again and finally hit on the head, turning into a fool.
The third daughter also had a rough fate. She wanted to start a small business to support her family, but she was always troubled by ruffians and scoundrels.
In the end, a black-hearted businessman envied her various creative ideas and designed a plan to make her lose her innocence.
The eldest son lost his status as a father-in-law and was forced to marry a woman with a fierce personality. He ended up living in misery.
The second son became a fool, and the third daughter was bullied and beaten by her husband's family.
Although the younger son did not encounter any "accidents", he had to work day and night to earn money to support his family, and eventually died of hunger.
In the dream, other people from the Tang family and the Ye family also appeared, looking skinny and lifeless.
In the last scene of the dream, Tang Ming'an watched helplessly as his young husband dragged his dying son home with his crippled leg. His eyes were bloodshot at this point.
The scene changed, and a graceful woman was flipping through a book with a vicious look on her face.
Tang Mingan, whose mind was blank at this moment, didn't care.
until--
Only after hearing his husband's name from the woman's mouth did Tang Ming'an turn his gaze towards her.
Suddenly, the contents of the book enlarged in front of him, allowing him to clearly see the description of his family.
The contents of the book seemed to have consciousness, crowding into his mind and making him dizzy.
until--
"Bang--"
The soldiers guarding outside the tent suddenly heard a loud noise coming from inside. They were startled and opened the tent curtains and rushed in.
"General!"
Tangjia Village
A tall and strong man ran wildly with a teenage boy in his arms, and shouted from a distance, "Tang Er's family! Is anyone home?!"
Not long after he finished speaking, the door opened and a girl poked her head out, "It's Uncle Huzi..."
Before the girl could finish, the man panted and begged, "Sanfeng, go find the old doctor! Your brother fell and hit his head, and my hands are covered in blood!"
"Brother?!" Tang Sanfeng's face was filled with panic when he heard Uncle Hu Zi's words.
He quickly opened the door and shouted inside, "Father, come quickly! My brother fell and got hurt!"
After shouting, Tang Sanfeng ran out without looking back.
She must call a doctor as soon as possible.
The medical level in ancient times was already low, and now my eldest brother has injured his head. If he is not careful, he will lose his life.
When Tang Sanfeng urged the old doctor to hurry up, the two of them hurried back home, and the yard was already full of people.
She took a look and saw that her grandparents and uncle's family were all there.
My maternal uncle taught in a college, so only two old people came.
"The doctor is here! Quick, quick, quick! Make way for the doctor to come in and take a look!" The uncle hurriedly pulled away his son who was blocking the door and opened it.
Because the injury was to his head, Tang Yihai kept the door of his room tightly closed for fear that the wind would make his condition worse.
Tang Sanfeng was worried, so she followed the old doctor into the house. Behind her, she heard her uncle and others shouting at her to come out quickly, but she ignored them.
"Uncle, the doctor is here." Tang Sanfeng came to his uncle's side and saw that his eyes were red, obviously he had just cried.
When Ye Qingyu heard this, she quickly stood up to make room for the doctor.
The young man lying on the bed looked pale and seemed to have lost too much blood.
He had been given simple hemostatic treatment before the doctor arrived, and now the wound on the back of his head has stopped bleeding.
However, Tang Sanfeng saw that the white cloth that had been placed aside and had not been cleaned yet was soaked with blood.
She took one look and didn't dare to look again.
After everyone's anxious waiting, the doctor finally came out.
Five days later, the boy lying in bed finally moved.
His eyelashes trembled slightly, his eyelids moved, and after a while he slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes changed from confusion to doubt, and finally to shock.
Tang Yihai wanted to sit up, but he touched the wound on his head as he moved. He let out a hiss and his face turned distorted in pain.
The door was suddenly pushed open carefully. Tang Yihai turned his head cautiously and saw a little girl walking in with a bowl in her hands.
After entering, he did not forget to turn around and close the door.
Tang Sanfeng stared at the bowl in his hand without wavering and moved over carefully.
She put the bowl down and turned her head to see her elder brother squinting at her, and she was startled.
"Brother, why didn't you make any sound after you woke up? You scared me." Tang Sanfeng patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sorry..." Tang Yihai apologized subconsciously.
It was indeed his fault to scare the little girl.
"It's just that the medicine is no longer hot, so drink it quickly, big brother." Tang Sanfeng took the bowl.
Tang Yihai couldn't sit up, so the little girl could only hold the bowl for him to drink.
He had never tasted Chinese medicine before, and he didn't expect it to be so bitter that it made people question their life.
Tang Yihai frowned and drank the medicine in the bowl with some pain.
The next second after I finished drinking it, a candied fruit was stuffed in my mouth.
After chewing it, the bitterness in my mouth was slowly covered by a hint of sweetness.
Alive.
After the girl left, Tang Yihai, lying on the bed unable to move, stared at somewhere in a daze.
He didn't know why, but when he woke up he found himself in a completely different world, even his body had changed.
He has no memory of this body, and cannot understand this world through memory.
As for where the original body went?
Tang Yihai felt the continuous dull pain in the back of his head and had some guesses in his mind.
After waking up, Tang Yihai stayed in bed for another five days, taking extremely bitter Chinese medicine with his three meals a day.
Now, whenever Tang Yihai smells any medicine, he feels like vomiting subconsciously.
It’s so painful!
This is pure torture!
However, during these five days, the original body's family and some relatives came to see him, and Tang Yihai also got some information out of them.
His original name was the same as his, also called Tang Yihai, and he had two younger brothers and a younger sister.
The eldest brother is eleven years old this year. His name is Tang Erhai and he is only one year younger than him.
The remaining two are dragon-and-phoenix twins, now nine years old.
His sister is Tang Sanfeng, the girl who brought him medicine, and his brother is Tang Silong.
The only elders in the family were the mother-in-law and a servant who was bought to take care of the household chores.
My uncle's family lived next door to them, so it was convenient for them to take care of each other.
As for the other elder in this family, that is their father.
Five years ago, the imperial court recruited soldiers, and each family had to send one man, so their father was conscripted.
Because he didn't want to arouse their suspicion, Tang Yihai only got some basic information and didn't dare to ask for more details.
Finally, the wound on the back of his head scabbed over, and Tang Yihai couldn't wait to open the tightly closed window and ventilate the room.
Having stayed in the house for so many days without being allowed to open the windows, Tang Yihai always felt that the house was filled with a bitter smell of traditional Chinese medicine.
It was only daybreak at this time, but most of the Tang family members were already awake.
The two brothers stood in the pool next to the water tank and rinsed their teeth. After Tang Sanfeng finished rinsing his teeth, he hurried into the kitchen.
Tang Yihai knew that it was because Tang Sanfeng couldn't eat the food cooked by the old lady, so he had to go into the kitchen before she did.
The old nanny was a slave bought by my father before he left home.
It is said that their father doted on their mother so much that he never let her enter the kitchen and that he did all the washing.
Worried that after he left, the father would not be able to take care of four children alone, he bought an old maid to take care of the housework.
"Brother is up." After brushing his teeth, Tang Silong turned around and saw his elder brother, grinning.
"Yeah, it's up." Tang Yihai smiled.
Tang Silong is a bit naive.
In the eyes of others, he is just a synonym for a fool with a dull mind.
"Brother." Tang Erhai also saw him and called out, but his voice was a little low.
Tang Yihai also nodded and smiled at him, then went to the sink.
Tang Erhai is shy and taciturn. He likes to stay in his small workshop and carve wood carvings.
In the eyes of his peers, he was a weirdo and no one was willing to play with him.
Seeing his elder brother coming over, Tang Silong helped to fetch water and handed him a cloth to wipe his face.
I watched from the side, afraid that my brother would accidentally fall again.
Tang Yihai had no choice but to let him stand aside.
While brushing his teeth and looking around, Tang Yihai looked at the place where he lived now.
In a typical courtyard house, the main house should be where the father and grandmother live, and there are also east and west side rooms and east and west side rooms.
There are three small rooms on each side of the gate, used to store things or food.
Tang Erhai's small wood carving workshop is also there.
The houses on all four sides form a "口" shape. There are several fruit trees planted on both sides of the courtyard in the middle, and the ground is covered with large flat stones.
Tang Yihai felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
Later, he realized it only when he walked out of the house and saw the houses of other villagers.
Most of the houses in the village are made of mud bricks and thatched roofs, although there are also many families living in green brick houses.
But apart from the Li Zheng family, only wealthy families would build a house with blue bricks and blue tiles like the Tang family.
Of course, my uncle's family and their maternal grandfather's family also live in rural courtyards.
However, seeing the modern elements everywhere in the house, Tang Yihai became alert.
Is he not the only one who has traveled from the modern times to this strange world?
