Chapter 1: Nongmen Tianjiao【03】
Although Yuan Jia was curious about who Yang Sanzhu was, he would not forget his current personality, so he did not take the risk to test it, but pretended to be a normal child.
During this New Year, Yuan Jia was extremely cautious, but everyone else was beaming with preparations for the New Year, such as cleaning, making croquettes, making cured meat, setting off firecrackers... festive and lively.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, children go out to relatives' houses to pay New Year's greetings, and if they are lucky, they can get a red envelope with a copper plate.
Yuan Jia wanted to stay in the house and didn't go out, but his mother Yang pulled out the quilt and put on layers of clothes, and asked him and his two cousins to go to the New Year with the big brother Yang Dazhu.
He looked at the clothes on his body, although he wore a lot, but the thermal effect was not as good as a modern cotton jacket! The outermost piece of clothing is also a cotton-padded coat, but it is not filled with cotton, but with cotton wool from kapok.
He was wearing new clothes, and the kapok batting stuffed in the cotton-padded clothes was new, and he was a little warm when he wore it. The cotton-padded clothes on the three people like Yang Dazhu are old, the cotton wool has been compacted long ago, and the thin layer is not very warm at all.
The four of them walked briskly in the cold wind, thinking about going into the house early to warm up.
Yuan Jia was walking behind Yang Dazhu, and suddenly his eyes were fixed, looking at a large pond in front of him.
The water in this pond can't be seen deep or shallow. There is a thin layer of ice on the water surface. The mud on the edge of the pond looks very slippery, and there are no railings. If someone is not careful, it is easy to walk by. The soles of his feet slipped and fell into the water.
When Yuanjia saw this pond, his first reaction was that the original owner, Yang Yuanjia, probably fell into this big pond and drowned.
In this big winter, even if you don't drown, you will freeze to death if you fall into the ice water.
Yuan Jia hurriedly walked around, staying far away from the pond and walking on the other side of the road. Even if the mud under his feet stained his new shoes, he would not approach the pond.
Yang Dazhu and the other three were probably accustomed to this road, and they walked past the pond very calmly. Seeing that Yuanjia deliberately avoided the distance and took a detour on the muddy ground, it was a little strange. Yang Dazhu asked, "Brother Yuanjia, How did you go over there? The road is not easy to go over there!"
Yuan Jia glanced at the pond, shook his head slightly, and walked over the road quickly.
After getting away from the pond, Yuan Jia joined Yang Dazhu and the three of them. He asked, "Brother, is there no other way than this one? You have to go through the pond, can't you take a detour?"
Yang Dazhu nodded: "This is the road! And why do we have to detour?"
Yuan Jia didn't answer, but Yang Sanzhu looked back at the way he came, glanced across the pond, and then turned to look at Yuan Jia, who had a foot in the mud.
The four of them went all over the village to pay New Year's greetings to most people. Although they didn't get a few red envelopes, some dry goods such as fried melon seeds were still stuffed into their pockets, and some people even prepared candy.
Yuan Jia had the most stuff in his pocket, and the people in the village were much more enthusiastic about him than the three of them were Yang Dazhu.
As for the reason, you don't need to think about it to know that it's because of Father Yang's face.
On the way back, when passing by the pond, Yuan Jia was walking by the side of the road away from the pond again.
At this time, Yang Sanzhu suddenly asked, "Are you afraid of water?"
Yuan Jia was slightly startled, then nodded and said, "Yes! If you fall, you will drown!"
He didn't hesitate to set up a character for himself who was afraid of water. Anyway, in this life, he would never go near a place where the depth of water could drown people.
Yang Sanzhu smiled at him and said, "Actually, water is not so scary. When the weather is warm, you can go back to the village and I will teach you how to swim. When you learn to swim, you will not be afraid of water."
Yuan Jia could hear that Yang Sanzhu was intending to have a good relationship with him. However, he can actually swim, "I don't want it! What if I drown before learning?"
Those who drown usually know water, and how can he guarantee that the death of Yang Yuanjia, the original owner of this world, will be the same as the death of He Yuanjia in the previous world. He is destined to drown as long as he falls into the water! If that's the case, he'd be drowned even if he could swim, an accidental death that was destined to be worse than murder.
Yang Sanzhu: "..." This little Douding turned out to be so afraid of death!
He also did not persuade Yuan Jia to learn to swim, but changed his words: "Then when the weather is warm, I will take you into the mountains to catch birds, those very cute birds!"
Yuan Jia asked, "Is the bird delicious?"
Yang Sanzhu: "...Okay, delicious."
But Yuan Jia still didn't promise him to return to Yangjia Village often in the future, "My father said, I will be eight years old after the new year, and he wants to send me to a private school to study, so I can't play casually."
When Yang Sanzhu heard this, he was very envious. In this era, reading is undoubtedly the best way out. If you pass the imperial examinations, you will be able to become an official. Even if you are just a small official with sesame seeds, it is better than shaving food in the ground, and you can't even eat meat.
Yang Sanzhu also wanted to study, but unfortunately Father Yang was only his uncle, not his biological father, so it was impossible for him to study.
He thought of the plan in his heart, suppressed his envy for Yang Yuanjia, and continued to have a good relationship with Yang Yuanjia.
＜＜＜＜＜＜
After the New Year's greetings, Yuan Jia stayed in the house and refused to go out until the New Year passed, and Father Yang was going to take them home.
Yuan Jia breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. For the time being, it seemed that the time of death in the original plot should have passed, but the system hadn't prompted the task to be completed, so he didn't dare to take it lightly.
When Yuan Jia went home with Yang's father and Yang's mother, he also deliberately asked Yang Sanzhu to say goodbye.
These days, Yang Sanzhu intends to have a good relationship with him, and he also wants to have more contact with this interference factor, so the relationship between the two has become very close.
Yang Dazhu was older than them all, and he was a foolish gourd who had little interaction with Yuan Jia. Yang Erzhu was a little jealous of Yuan Jia's new clothes, shoes and snacks. He even stole his candy. In addition, Yang Erzhu was the ungrateful Yang Yuanqi in the original plot. Yuan Jia didn't like him at all. nervous.
The only person Yuan Jia could talk to in Yangjia Village was Yang Sanzhu, the same pseudo-child.
When leaving, Yuan Jia also invited Yang Sanzhu: "Brother Sanzhu, come to my house to play when you have time!"
The expression on Yang Sanzhu's face was not very happy. He emphasized again: "Brother Yuanjia, don't call me younger brother Sanzhu!"
Yuan Jia Mengmeng blinked her eyes, and said with kindness: "Okay, then I'll call you little three brother!"
Yang Sanzhu's face changed slightly: "Then you should call me Sanzhu!" Xiaosan is more ugly than Sanzhu!
Yuan Jia smiled with crooked eyes. During this period of contact, he had already figured out Yang Sanzhu's bottom line. This person is not a rebirth, but a transmigrator from modern society.
Yang Sanzhu probably thought that Yuan Jia was a child who didn't understand anything, and he said some things in front of him, such as planes, trains, cakes... without the caution of a traveler at all.
Yuan Jia, after discovering that Yang Sanzhu was still a science student before he crossed over, has decided to be a lifetime brother with Sanzhu's younger brother!
＜＜＜＜＜＜
After Yuanjia returned to the county seat, Father Yang was ready to be repaired and took Yuanjia to a private school to enroll.
The teacher of this private school is an old scholar named Li.
Li Xiucai is already fifty years old, and his private school has been open for many years. He once taught a scholar, so many children come to Li Xiucai's private school to study.
Li Xiucai has limited energy. Before accepting students, he will take a test first. If his qualifications are really dull, he advises parents to take their children to other private schools.
Because the students taught by Li Xiucai took them on the way to the imperial examination, Li Xiucai was unwilling to accept those students who were not qualified enough, or who simply wanted to learn some knowledge and become an accountant.
Yuan Jia was led by Yang's father to Li Xiucai's front to be tested.
It was here that Yuan Jia first saw the existence of books.
Father Yang had never attended a private school, so he could only say that he could understand the ledger and recognize a few words, but Mother Yang didn't even know her own name. Naturally, the Yang family did not have books.
Li Xiucai took out a thousand-character essay, "Come and read with me!" He taught Yuan Jia to read a few paragraphs.
Yuan Jia looked at the words on the book, and they were slightly different from the words in the world he had traveled through before, but the difference was not big.
Then he found that Li Xiucai only taught him to read it once, and he wrote it all down. Even the other content that he didn't teach, he quickly wrote it down at a glance, just like it was imprinted in his mind.
Although Yuan Jia had a good memory in the past, he could memorize an article a few times, but now he has a deep memory after reading it once. Is this a memory? !
Yuanjia himself does not have the ability to remember, it seems that this is the skill of the original owner Yang Yuanjia.
Yang Yuanjia is still an unforgettable child prodigy!
Having never been exposed to books before, even if Yuan Jia found that the scenery he had seen was easy to remember in his mind, he only thought that he had a good memory and the observation ability of an adult, but he had never seen this body. Do not forget the ability to think above.
Now that I come into contact with the book, I can easily memorize the content after reading it once, and I can be sure that I will never forget it.
Yuan Jia didn't intend to hide his clumsiness. After he read it directly with Li Xiucai, he recited it again in front of Li Xiucai and Father Yang without reading the book.
Li Xiucai was shocked, and when he finished memorizing it, he quickly asked, "You, have you memorized it all?"
Yuan Jia nodded ignorantly: "I wrote it down, and I wrote it down after listening to it!"
Li Xiucai stood up excitedly and paced back and forth: "Good! Good! Good! This is a memorable one! I didn't expect your child to have such a good memory!"
He said to Father Yang, who looked surprised: "Your son is very talented, just stay with me to study, and you don't have to pay for it!"
After Father Yang repeatedly determined that his son was really a genius, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
