Traveling through ancient times to survive

Zhao Decheng said in a sinister tone: "It's okay to bring Zhuzi, Third Aunt, take out the letter of guarantee. You can't threaten me with the letter of guarantee every time you're unhappy. If you don't agree, even if I have to quit my job as an official, I will make the Third House pay the price!"

"When Zhuzi becomes the accountant, I will give you the letter of guarantee. What if you deny it now?"

Zhao Sansao was terrified, but she looked calm. The Third House really offended Zhao Decheng this time. Looking at Zhao Decheng's cruel expression, she didn't know if he would retaliate later, but for the sake of her son's future, she had to fight.

"Okay!" Zhao Decheng gritted his teeth and endured it.

Zhao Decheng left the village angrily with his grandparents, mother and Zhuzi from the third room.

Looking at his elder brother who was lazily taking a nap under the shade of a tree, Zhao Chenghe rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

"Brother? Why are you still in the village?"

Zhao Chengshan opened his eyes and said leisurely, "It's my third brother, why can't I stay in the village? I don't know how comfortable it is to stay in this village. I don't want to go to the county to suffer."

"Brother, you are Cheng'er's biological father, who dares to make you angry?" Zhao Chenghe still didn't want to believe that his always smart brother didn't follow him to the county to enjoy the good life. Is the county really not a good place to go? What about his Zhuzi? He went to great lengths to offend his nephew, but he was just picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons?

"You can go if you want. I'm going to live in the village all my life anyway." Zhao Chengshan would certainly not tell his third brother that his son's official position came in a strange way. Anyway, sending Zhuzi to the county was the third branch's own choice and had nothing to do with him.

The more Zhao Chenghe thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, so he immediately hurried back home.

"Damn it! Something happened!"

"What happened?" Mrs. Zhao asked anxiously.

"Big brother didn't go to the county town with me. Do you think there is a problem? Big brother is more cunning than a sieve. He doesn't even want to go to the county town. Is there something fishy going on?"

"That's impossible, right? Cheng'er is his own son. If there is a problem, will your elder brother just watch and not warn you? And his parents and sister-in-law are all gone. What can be the problem? You just like to think too much. What can happen?"

Mrs. Zhao had already begun to have some doubts in her heart, but her husband's future was hanging in front of her, so she was trying to convince herself that she must be overthinking it.

"Is that right?"

Zhao Chenghe was skeptical, but he ran to ask his elder brother without giving up. Zhao Chengshan still said the same thing, so Zhao Chenghe had no choice but to believe it.

The two were worried for a few days, and then everything was calm. The couple breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that they had really thought too much.

Unfortunately, the two of them did not feel at ease for long, as the fact that Zhao Decheng took the credit for other people's work and donated grain seeds himself was exposed in the village.

The peaceful village exploded in an instant, and everyone was ready to go to the county town to ask Zhao Decheng for an explanation. It was only after Zhao Chengchuan asked Zhao Lan to persuade them that they stopped the indignant villagers.

Why did Zhao Lan decide to let Zhao Decheng go? Of course it wasn't because of the so-called family affection. She was an alien soul without any memory, and she had never received any family affection from them. How could she have such abundant emotions?

But other people don't know. After all, he is the original body's biological brother. It's not okay to go too far. When the villagers calm down, they will think that I am cold-blooded and they should not be close friends with me. It's not okay to have my reputation ruined.

They are so angry now only in the heat of the moment, and more importantly, they are complaining for Zhao Qing. The grain seeds were originally provided in Zhao Qing's name, and in the hearts of the villagers, the credit belongs to the two of them.

She knew how fanatical the villagers were about Zhao Qing, but she, Zhao Lan, did not have that kind of prestige.

And if Zhao Decheng was sent to prison, wouldn't the original body's parents and grandparents come to harass him? It would be better to use this as a handle to completely expel them from the village.

The villagers didn't know what Zhao Lan was thinking. They only knew that one of the victims had decided to let Zhao Decheng go, so they couldn't say anything.

But Zhao Decheng did such a shameful thing, and his father and his uncle's family are still there. If there is no punishment, what will happen next time? It is better to take the opportunity to clean them out together.

They could also go to Zhao Decheng for help. After all, Zhao Decheng now has an official position and a house, so they will definitely not starve to death. The village chief and Lan Ya should have no objection to this.

The culprit was not in the village, but Zhao Decheng's close family members were still in the village, so the angry villagers rushed into Zhao Chengshan's house again.

Even though Zhao Chengshan was prepared and thought his son must have done something to catch the attention of the county magistrate, he could not have imagined that his son would dare to do such a bold thing and be discovered by the villagers.

"Zhao Chengshan, you have a good son! Are those grains from your family? Your son is just borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, how shameless! He is also a scholar! Pah!"

"I was saying a few days ago that Zhao Decheng looked down on us. It turns out that he became a minor official by dirty means. Not only did he not feel guilty about his wrongdoings, but he also looked down on us with a clear conscience. I have seen your family's upbringing. It is really an eye-opener!"

Zhao Chengshan was spitted in the face by everyone, but it was indeed his son who was wrong, so he could only admit it. He was angry with his son in his heart, thinking that he did not know how to do things cleanly and now he was hurting himself.

Zhao Chengshan endured the scolding silently, and the villagers who had scolded him became even angrier when they saw that they received no response.

"Zhao Chengshan, are you mute? Don't you have anything to say to everyone about the ugly things your son did?"

Zhao Chengshan cursed inwardly. No, it was wrong for him to admit it obediently? But he forced a stiff smile on his face.

"You are right to scold me. Brother Cheng is indeed a bad boy. I only found out about this matter after you guys came to my house. I was so confused that I couldn't react, right?"

Someone looked suspicious: "You are his biological father, how could you not know?"

"Yes, your son and his whole family left, why didn't you go? Could it be that you wanted to steal the village's secrets to pave the way for your son?" Someone started to speculate on conspiracy theories, and now everyone looked at Zhao Chengshan with even more ferocious eyes.

Zhao Chengshan was so scared that he swore to the sky: "Absolutely not! Everyone knows how much his grandparents dote on that unfilial son. He doesn't listen to anything I say, and he never tells me anything he does. If I knew, would I dare to stay in the village? Not to mention finding out the village secrets for that unfilial son!"

Zhao Chengshan shouted loudly that he was innocent, but when the villagers still didn't believe him, he had to expose his family's dirty laundry.

"In fact, my relationship with that unfilial son broke up some time ago. Otherwise, why did he leave me behind when he brought his family to the city this time? It's because they all looked down on me. I didn't want to go to the county and suffer, so I took the initiative to ask to stay."
