The woman hugged her son and future daughter-in-law and walked out almost floating. This time Zhang Xiaobao did not continue to be immersed in the warmth of a mother in this life, her eyes kept communicating with Wang Juan, occasionally using it. Lips, that meant to let Wang Juan cooperate with him to figure out what the place he was currently in as soon as possible.

There are still some contradictions in Wang Juan's heart. He has not fully adapted to his new identity for the time being, and he is not used to being hugged by a young woman. Seeing what Zhang Xiaobao conveyed, he suppressed various emotions in his heart and began to remember the surrounding scenery. , Including the clothes on the person and the layout of the house.

Two people who can be said to be elites in the previous life, at this moment must give full play to their expertise and reflect the accumulation of knowledge and experience.

"Ancient?" Zhang Xiaobao said to Wang Juan with his lips while being held by his mother and walking out.

Wang Juan nodded slightly, glanced at the table, found two coins on it, squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and replied: "If you guessed it correctly, it should be from the Tang Dynasty. I saw money and opened Yuan Tongbao. I don’t know the specifics. Which dynasty."

At this time, the woman had already arrived at the door. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan looked at the situation outside again, and realized that they didn't directly see the outside, and there was a courtyard in front of them.

"Rich people? Manor? Officials? Businessmen?" Wang Juan immediately judged this situation.

"It's not an official family, my mother, my mother doesn't have that kind of temperament in her. After listening to what my mother said, the preliminary judgment is that the landlord class has villagers." Zhang Xiaobao returned after analysis.

"Madam, why are you holding two by yourself? Quickly, give me one." Just as Wang Juan was still expressing, a man's voice sounded, thinking it was the woman's husband, but he saw a man in silk clothes. The uncle in his forties, based on his current age, or the person who should have called his grandfather to come over, immediately stopped talking and returned to his child's virginity.

The same is true for Zhang Xiaobao. He looked at this person with curious eyes, especially his eyes, and wanted to see from it whether he was deceiving or suppressing his mother. He positioned this person as a housekeeper. According to his temper, if he sees any hint of contempt for his mother in the eyes of this suspected butler, then he will kill.

"It's okay, the two children are not heavy, and they are comfortable to hold. Mr. Zhang is busy. Oh, everyone in the yard will appreciate it today. Let's add a portion of meat to dinner." When the woman mentioned her child, she kept smiling. , Naturally you have to be happy with the people in the whole yard.

"Yes, madam, you are busy. I will ask someone to come over and watch it. It's hot and hold an umbrella for the little son and the little lady." Guanshi Zhang responded respectfully, bowed his head and left quietly, without showing the slightest disrespect. Don't know at all, this attitude saved him from a murderous disaster.

The woman hugged the two children and continued to walk forward. Before she went to the front to enter the yard, a young girl of the same age came over and held up an umbrella to block the scorching sun from the outside. Cherry this Shi also gave Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan a warm and damp silk handkerchief to gently wipe their faces.

"Pomegranate, do you know where the master is?" The woman kissed Zhang Xiaobao's face and asked the girl who was holding the umbrella.

"In response to Madam, the master is reading the book in the study. At this time, the old lady and the old man should be in the front yard to enjoy the coolness." Pomegranate replied cleverly, often serving people, she naturally knows what the lady meant, that is to let the family see the children. .

The woman nodded: "Well, then go to the front yard, Cherry, and later you tell the people who repair the yard not to be lazy, and let the old lady and the old man go back to live in after the repair, and always live in the front, which is not good in terms of identity."

When I turned my head and looked at the two children in my arms, they turned into a smiling face again, turned sideways slightly, and said, "Little treasure, cuckoo, the one who used to be the steward of our house, this maid is called Cherry. The other is called Pomegranate. I will show you grandpa and grandma later."

Then, regardless of whether the two children can understand or not, they walked forward and taught them how to speak. This is called a house. The middle of the house is the door, and there are windows, etc., and I went to the front yard and saw Dahuai. The two "old men" who were under the age of fifty sitting at the stone table under the tree stopped talking and walked two steps quickly.

"Qiao'er is coming, hurry up, show me our good grandson and granddaughter-in-law." The old lady who was sitting there being served and drinking tea saw the figure of the woman and stood up and greeted her. While talking, he stretched out his hand to pick up Zhang Xiaobao, still complaining: "Qiao'er, what should I do if I'm tired from holding two children in this hot day? Let the next person do it later."

With that said, she herself didn't mean to let her subordinates help to hold the child. She held Zhang Xiaobao in both hands and put it in front of her. She couldn't see enough at all. The wrinkles in the corners of her eyes were crowded together, and the smile was not lost.

"I’m not tired. I’m not tired of holding my own children. By the way, father-in-law and mother-in-law, Baolang will call his mother. I just called it in the house, and there are cuckoos. Call me mother-in-law, Lai Baolang, Scream again." Mother Zhang just remembered as she spoke. She came over to make her father-in-law and mother-in-law cheer together. He reached out to touch his son's chubby face and let him scream again.

"Mother." Zhang Xiaobao will naturally not refuse. He has finally experienced the addiction of his parents in his life. He is ready to call back what he has never said before. Then, without waiting for others to praise him, he shouts to the old lady who is holding him. :"grandmother."

Turning to look at the old man who was sitting there and looking over again, he continued to yell, "Grandpa."

Now the old man couldn’t sit still anymore, so he stood up and walked quickly to his grandson, “Oh my dear grandson, let grandpa see, well, better than other grandchildren, no one can compare to us. Home, shout one more sentence to grandpa."

"Grandpa." Zhang Xiaobao looked at his grandpa carefully, thinking in his heart that if he was washed away by the water again, this grandpa should also be able to put himself ashore.

"Grandpa, grandma." Wang Juan also yelled at this time. Seeing the old man, he still needs the least respect.

The two shouted so that everyone immediately cheered. The old lady took Wang Juan, and the old man sat back with Zhang Xiaobao in his arms. They boasted endlessly, boasting about his son, his daughter-in-law, his grandson, and his future. Her grandson and daughter-in-law, including the servants who were serving, all followed along and praised it, and it seemed that everything was so beautiful.

It doesn't feel hot anymore, people don't feel irritable anymore, even the watchdog who usually doesn't let him get close can be praised by lying under the tree.

At this time, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were feeling warmth, listening carefully to the people talking, observing the surrounding situation, and analyzing their own living environment in the future.

Especially when I heard some trivial things about the family that my grandfather, grandma and mother talked about later, the two listened more carefully, and their lips talked endlessly.

"Who said that he was not an official? Isn't this a fief? There are also a hundred households of food." Wang Juan was hearing that Grandpa Zhang Xiaobao was worried that the ancestor's ancestors returned to the awards with his life will be taken back. What he said at the time, said to Zhang Xiaobao.

Zhang Xiaobao also listened. His ancestor went up to fight, made war exploits, and saved important Shangguans. He was sealed with a false title and got hundreds of acres of land. Later, the ancestor died and the false title was gone. Those one hundred households have not been taken back, and now they have changed the year, that is, the emperor has changed it, fearing to be taken away.

"The difference between the ancestors and the present is so many years. I am not an official anymore. I used to be a vain. This is not important. The important thing is to know the age. It seems to be stable for decades in the second year of Kaiyuan. Li Longji has just cleaned up. After finishing his aunt, he is in the stage of vigorous development." Zhang Xiaobao got the most important information from his grandfather.

With intelligence, it is easy to handle. People are not afraid of facing dangers and difficulties, but are afraid of facing the unknown. The most uncomfortable is the darkening of the eyes.

"What's so good? It's better to go ahead. For example, during the Zhenguan period, at least you don't have to worry about the Anshi chaos. You probably won't be able to keep the land. It should have been taken away long ago. It is not hereditary. I don't know how to hide for so many years." Talking cold words and worrying in my heart, Zhang Xiaobao’s land is gone, and his income will be less. If he encounters a disaster and other things, he does not save some food, and his life is not easy.

Zhang Xiaobao has no worries about this. The big deal is to make money to buy land, and to collect it. It’s not difficult to make money. Even if you don’t cheat and you can’t make big money, you can still get small money at your fingertips. The only worry is the Anshi chaos mentioned by Wang Juan. After thinking about it, he said to Wang Juan: "Don't be afraid, saving a person is not easy. Isn't it easy to kill someone?"

"Kill An Lushan?" Wang Juan asked.

"Well, this is one of them. Don't worry now. When we grow up, we will kill An Lushan, kill Shi Siming, abolish Li Linfu, and kill Yang Guozhong." Zhang Xiaobao said confidently.

"Blow, even if you really kill An Lu Mountain, there are Li Lu Mountain and Wang Lu Mountain." Wang Juan gave Zhang Xiaobao a bit of face.

Zhang Xiaobao rolled his eyes indifferently and said: "In theory, there is such a situation, but it is people who really change history. The character of a certain important person is the decisive factor in history. There is only one Napoleon, so let’s not discuss this. Questions, you will know when you have a look."

Wang Juan also knew that there was no final conclusion about this philosophy-related thing, and it was better to be realistic, so he asked: "Then what are we going to do? Just wait for a little bit to grow up?"

"Of course not. Our first task is to make money and buy more land when the time comes. Kaiyuan's prosperous age is an economic prosperity, but no matter how prosperous it is, our food is in an indispensable position at that time, not to mention here. "Zhang Xiaobao gave an idea.

"How to do it? Just rely on our two little boys? Does anyone listen to what they say?"

"Stupid people think about difficulties, smart people think about opportunities. When we learn about the situation for two more days, I will tell you what to do." Zhang Xiaobao looked like an old god is there.
