The original body's parents were both hardworking and capable. They had nothing when they fled, but now they own six acres of paddy fields and two acres of dry land. They worked hard all their lives just hoping that their son would pass the exam. Unexpectedly... Now that they have taken over his body, they have to fulfill their filial duties, not to mention that they look so much like their own parents.
"Dad, how much is left? Can I help you finish it?"
"What are you doing? You're just recovering from your illness and you're starting over." The Queen Mother wanted to pat him on the back, but when she saw her hands were dirty, she withdrew them and said, "Hurry back and rest. The fields will be back in a day. You don't need to worry about it."
Wang Yu thought so too. If he got sick again, the medicine would be bitter and expensive, so he went back obediently. On the way back, he thought about what he could do. He still had to study and take exams. After all, if he passed the exam to become a scholar, the family's land would be tax-free and he would not have to pay labor service. There were many benefits. Moreover, the original body's parents really wanted their son to study.
He himself was also engaged in historical research, and the original owner was also a good student. If it weren't for this accident, he should have been able to pass the exam. He accepted the original owner's memory and thought that there should be no problem taking it himself.
Thinking that I have already come here, I don’t know if I can go back. Life has to go on, so I might as well live here well and think about it as I go.
Until they walked to the river and saw a familiar figure washing clothes. It looked a bit like their child. It was March. Although it was spring, the weather was still cold, and the river water was even colder. How could they wash in the river?
"Achen!" Wang Yu walked over angrily.
Cheng Chen heard someone calling him, and when he stood up and saw it was his husband, he put his hands behind his back like he had done something wrong. Wang Yu came forward and took his slightly red hand, took a cold breath, and said in a somewhat stern tone: "Why don't you listen? I said I would wash it when I got back. Why are you washing it in the river in such a cold weather? What if you catch a cold?"
Listening to her husband's serious reprimand, Cheng Chen lowered his head unconsciously, apologized softly, and his eyes were slightly red. He was thinking that if he did more, his husband would like him more and would not send him back.
The child's nasal voice made Wang Yu unable to get angry. Even though he was still a junior high school student, he had already learned to do all kinds of chores. He sighed, held his hand to warm it, and said softly, "I don't blame you. I can do these things when you are still young. Besides, the river water is so cold, what if you get frozen?"
Cheng Chen listened to Wang Yu's words and raised her head and said seriously: "I want to do these things for my husband."
Wang Yu looked at his round eyes, which were clean and serious, and could not say anything else. He just touched his head and asked, "Are the clothes washed?"
"Yeah." Cheng Chen nodded softly.
Wang Yu looked at the child so well behaved, and his expression softened. He picked up the wooden basin beside him and said, "Let's go home."
When Cheng Chen heard the words "let's go home", her eyes curved, and she looked at her empty hands. Her husband's hands were so warm that she didn't want to let go. Then she saw her husband's back carrying a wooden basin and walked in front of her, so she followed Wang Yu back.
After arriving home, Wang Yu hung the clothes on a rope in the yard. One end of the rope was hung on the eaves of the house and the other end was tied to a persimmon tree. This is basically how farmers hang clothes. The yard is open and has plenty of sunlight.
Cheng Chen looked at Wang Yu and said, "Husband, I'm going to cook. My parents will be back soon."
"Well, okay!" Wang Yu also wanted to continue looking into the space, so he didn't follow him to the kitchen. After hanging up the clothes, he turned around and went back to the room.
He returned to his small, two-bedroom, two-living-room house, which he had bought near his workplace. It was large enough for one person. He took a quick tour of the house, finding nothing had changed. He casually grabbed a box of chocolates and left. Looking at the chocolates in his hand, it seemed like the contents could be taken out and used. It would be so convenient if he could take them at will. He decided to give it a try. As he thought about the chocolates, they returned to the space, and when he thought about them again, they reappeared.
Then he took the pillow on the bed and tried it, and it could be put in. Wang Yu sat on the edge of the bed and sighed, was this a benefit given to him by the time travel god? A portable space, Wang Yu smiled bitterly.
Then I thought about what things in my house could be used here and how to get them out. I organized my thoughts and walked out.
"My husband is out. The meal is ready, come and eat. My parents should be back. I'll go and pick them up." Cheng Chen walked towards the main room carrying a bowl of chicken soup.
Wang Yu looked at the child's figure and felt dazed for a moment. It seemed like no one had prepared a meal for him for a long time. In the past, except for the Chinese New Year when he went home and his mother cooked for him, he usually ate in the company cafeteria, ordered takeout, or cooked by himself. The feeling of having someone prepare a meal for him was really nice.
After putting the dishes away, Cheng Chen came out and saw her husband staring at her. She asked embarrassedly, "What's wrong?"
Wang Yu came back to his senses, walked over, touched his head and said with a smile: "Achen is great!"
Cheng Chen walked out with a red face, and happened to meet Wang's father and mother who had returned. He called out to them and they said that the meal was ready and they could eat after washing their hands. Then he went to get a basin of water and added hot water for Wang's father and mother to wash.
People who do farm work are not very clean, not to mention that they are working in paddy fields. When they come back, they have already washed their feet in the fields, and there are still some spots of mud on their bodies. It’s nothing to wash their faces and hands before eating. Every household does this.
The Queen Mother looked at Cheng Chen with a blushing face, then looked at Wang Yu standing behind her and smiled with relief. It seemed that they got along well!
At the dinner table, Wang Yu looked at his bowl of spring bamboo shoots and chicken soup, then looked at the sweet potato rice in his parent Achen's bowl, and the plate of green vegetables and a plate of stir-fried bacon with garlic sprouts in front of him, and he felt bad!
Wang Yu gave each of them a piece of chicken from his bowl and said, "Achen, this chicken is very delicious. You should try some too."
The Queen Mother and the King Father exchanged a glance, feeling relieved and unwilling to refuse. They said, "Okay, everyone, eat. Ah Chen's cooking is indeed delicious. Today's dishes are all good."
Cheng Chen looked at her husband who was looking at her with a smile, picked up the chicken and took a bite. She just felt that the chicken her husband picked up was so delicious!
After dinner, Wang's mother kept Wang Yu to talk: "Yu'er, although Achen married into the family for the purpose of bringing good luck, he is also a son of a respectable family. Tomorrow, when he returns home, go to the town to buy a piece of meat and a box of cakes. I will go to the village to collect 20 eggs and take them to visit Yue's family."
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, Wang Yu realized that Achen was the one he had asked for to bring good luck. Achen's home was in Xiling Village on the other side of the mountain, which got its name because of the Xiling Mountain. His family was a hunter, and he had an older brother who was married and had a two-year-old child.
As for why Achen asked for this marriage himself, it was because although hunters made more money than farming, it was also dangerous. His father was seriously injured by a blind bear in the mountains. The family had used up all the money, but the patient was still not fully recovered.
