Chapter 1 Returning

Fang Shujing dreamed again.

In the dream, his engagement was broken off in public, and his parents who once loved him spoke harshly to him. It was nothing more than falling from the sky to the earth.

He was a son of a peasant, and it had been sixteen years since he was replaced by a rich son of the Xu family. He couldn't accept the sudden change, so he used despicable means to frame the rich man. After his low-level methods were discovered, he doubled his ridicule and finally died in depression.

Every time the dream reached this point, Fang Shujing would be awakened from the dream, and he would be immersed in the dream for a long time and unable to regain his senses.

Seeing the four walls of the house, I gradually became more awake.

He had indeed experienced the first half of the dream, but he had not yet experienced the second half of the dream. But it was as if he had experienced each scene personally. Could it be that what was in the dream was his previous life?

Today's emperor is obsessed with alchemy and alchemy, and some stories about ghosts and gods are also spread, and there are many folk tales. He used to watch it to relieve his boredom, but he had just experienced something that even he doubted the authenticity of it.

Now he has just been transferred back and has been kept at home all day without eating or drinking. He is still slightly weak when he gets up from bed!

No matter who encounters such a change, he will not feel calm all of a sudden. If he hadn't had the same dream for several days in a row, he might have actually embarked on that crooked path.

But since God gave him a chance to start over, he had to live a decent life.

Throughout a person's life, he will not grow poor, nor will he grow rich, and he can live well in poverty as long as he works hard.

Fang Shujing stretched out his hand, and the spiritual spring on his palm was still there!

This is his only secret. When he was fifteen years old, he helped an old Taoist priest and inexplicably found this spiritual spring. This spiritual spring can cleanse the muscles and purify the marrow. He used it secretly on the Xu family's parents to make them look like they were in their early thirties when they were in their forties. He was not willing to use such a precious thing on himself!

Fang Shujing got some spiritual spring and poured it into a cup. He drank the sweetness in his mouth. The spiritual spring followed his mouth and entered his body. The weakness caused by not eating or drinking these days was wiped away. After not sleeping well for several days, he felt tired!

I fell asleep quickly.

When he woke up, it was already an hour later, but his body was very energetic. The previous fatigue and physical discomfort were gone, and I felt that my hearing and vision were much better.

At this moment, there was a rhythmic knocking on the door outside.

"Who?"

The door was pushed open with a creak. The plainly dressed woman outside was her mother. She looked at Fang Shujing and seemed to want to get close to her, but she was afraid of scaring him.

Fang is a peasant woman. Unexpectedly, she went to the county to help her sick little son with his crying problem, so she was secretly replaced... After all,

she felt guilty after not seeing her for more than ten years, and she was also afraid that he would not be able to accept it. In addition to delivering meals these days, Basically don't come here very often.

In Fang Shujing's eyes, this dilapidated house was the best that his family could offer.

Many people in the village lived with their parents, and they had never heard of anyone living alone before they got married. But when they learned about Fang Shujing, they asked someone from the same village to build a family, saying that he was a scholar and liked peace and quiet.

"I steamed some steamed buns at home, and I mixed in some more refined grains. You can try it." Fang's tone was somewhat flattering.

There was also some sadness in her eyes. He hadn't eaten these days, and even his iron body couldn't bear it. But today, when she saw that Fang Shujing didn't have the resistance of the past, he was in good spirits and was more handsome than before.

"Mom, please put it in there." Fang Shujing was relieved now. Holding the spiritual spring in his hand, he still didn't believe that he would not live a good life.

Mrs. Fang suddenly heard Fang Shujing calling her mother, and tears welled up in her eyes: "Hey, hey..." There was a mix of sadness and joy on her face.

These days, her biological son finally called her mother.

Fang Shujing knew how to be sensible just by looking at him, and he had an aura about him that could only be found in a big shot.

It was embarrassing to say that he was obviously her son, but she, the mother-in-law, did not dare to speak loudly in front of Fang Shujing.

I also understand my son's rejection a few days ago. He suddenly fell from a high position to his current position. The gap in his heart is not something that ordinary people can bear.

Mother and son are connected to each other with this sound, and there is a feeling of joy after all the hardships.

Fang twisted his clothes with his hands. Then he said: "Do you still lack anything here? I will go back and get some for you."

Fang Shujing said: "No, there is everything here!"

Although the Fangs and his wife had already brought out the best things, they still There is a big difference from the Xu family where Fang Shujing lived before. After all, he is his own flesh and blood, and he is always afraid of wronging his son.

Ms. Fang felt happy when her son called her mother, and the smile on her face became a little brighter: "Your father and eldest brother are both at home. In the past few days, they said they would make a table of delicious food to celebrate your return."

Fang Shu Jing nodded. Father Fang and Brother Fang both worked as carpenters. The family also has two acres of thin farmland. It's not a problem to make ends meet by relying on land and crafts, but it's not that rich either.

Fang Shujing was awakened by the dream and naturally would not do anything stupid like in the dream again.

Although the village is a little poorer, the people here are relatively simple, and it is not difficult to get along with the simple Fang family.

Mrs. Fang looked at him and hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong?"

Fang said: "These days when you go back to the village, matchmakers have come to your door, but your mother has turned them down. You are engaged. Although Xiaochen is a brother, his master saved you. My father's fate and marriage were all agreed upon."

Fang Shujing is handsome, unlike a young man who is a farmer and educated and raised in a wealthy family. Compared to those rough old men in the countryside, I don't know how much better than they are in appearance alone.

Jin Gui, a scholar these days, heard that Fang Shujing is still a child. If she becomes a scholar, she will be a high official's wife. Even if it doesn't work, if you can write and calculate and work as a bookkeeper in the county, you can still earn 500 yuan a month. What can you do better than digging for food in the countryside? I was afraid that I would start too late, and the matchmakers would come over one after another, and the threshold would almost be leveled.

These days, all major marriage matters are ordered by the parents, but Fang Shujing is particularly different. Fang doesn't dare to be in charge of him, for fear that her gentle son will be unhappy and have to discuss everything with him.

Fang Shujing raised his eyebrows. He vaguely remembered that Fang said the same thing in his dream. But he made a scene.

Although my brother is fertile, he looks like a man. Unless two people are already in love, most people are still willing to marry a woman.

Fang carefully observed his expression and felt a little relieved when she saw that he didn't look angry.

Fang Shujing asked: "Then is he willing?"

Fang's eyes lit up and said: "Yes, Liu Yechen is very good-looking and soft-tempered, you will definitely like it."

Fang Shujing nodded.

Mrs. Fang said: "I will arrange for you young people to meet next time. He is also good at cooking!" If both of them like him, they can get married as soon as possible and get married.

Seeing that her son's attitude towards her was no longer as hostile as before, Mrs. Fang was so happy that she wanted to tell Father Fang and her eldest son immediately. She said blankly: "Remember to eat the steamed buns that mom made for you. If you have anything to do, go to mom." There is still a lot to clean up at home. I'll go back first!"

"Yes." Fang Shujing sent her away. When she returned to the house, she found a bowl of steaming noodles next to the food box.

It looks like it's newly made, and it's still steaming. Who could it be?

Fang Shujing became interested.
