Time can smooth everything out.
Even Jiang He himself sometimes seems to have never had those experiences, thinking that he is a native modern person.
At an age with the strongest learning ability, I have been in modern society for ten years. The best years and the best experiences are all deeply rooted in the 21st century.
Only occasionally when I dream back at midnight, those memories from thousands of years ago will come to my mind, and I will secretly think about Erniang and compare them—now she is also Erniang’s age, maybe even more mature than Erniang.
After all, she has two children, and a computer and mobile phone...
In terms of experience, age, and experience, they are all perfect.
Then Jiang He discovered Erniang's kind of intelligence, she probably couldn't learn it, because the environment didn't allow it, as long as she did what she wanted to do, Xu Qing would arrange the rest, so she was used to it by Xu Qing. look like.
Xu Qing and Xu Wenbin, father and son, sat facing each other. Xu Wenbin picked up the cup and drank the tea in one gulp. After Xu Qing poured another cup, he looked at the steam. After a while, he took off his glasses and wiped them, then stood up.
"Tell me a story?" Xu Wenbin asked.
Nothing stands up to careful scrutiny, but the truth of speculation is sometimes even more outrageous.
He wanted an answer where logic would make sense.
What a shitty orphan... That was the biggest lie, a reasonable and irrefutable lie woven by Xu Qing.
"I used to tell you stories when I was young, and you told your father one too," he said.
"That kind of story about a mummy toad being picked up by a swan but eating a pile of cloth and letting it go without any meat?" Xu Qing chuckled, and was glared at by Xu Wenbin.
The afternoon sun fell on the terrace, it was warm, the spring breeze was not dry, and it hadn't started to heat up yet, and the leaves on the branches downstairs were tender green.
Xu Wenbin went to the terrace to pick up a 1.6-meter long sword, which can also be called a knife. There is no such thing as a knife or a sword for a weapon of this size. Anyway, whoever touches it will die, but there is only a small difference in the arc.
Weighed it, it was very heavy, Xu Wenbin pulled it out, the blade was no longer bright, and looked a bit dilapidated.
This kind of sword is rarely seen even in movies and TV dramas, and the only one that impresses people is probably only Ding Xiu in Xiuchun Dao, who is Jiaqian Layman: "That is my dearest and dearest junior brother - I need to add money. "
Carrying weapons on his shoulders all the year round, he faced Kai Wushuang with cavalry at the end.
"It was originally prepared for Jiang He, and there is also a terrace, so she can practice her fists and swords." Xu Qing leaned against the edge of the wall and looked down from the terrace. A bit of a waste..."
He turned his head to see Xu Wenbin trying to swing the sword, smiled and said, "Dad, you said that an ancient man came to modern times, what would happen?"
"It will cause an uproar."
"I ask again, if you pick up an ancient person, how can you help her adapt to this society?"
"An ancient man comes to modern times..."
Xu Wenbin groaned and put the sword back, came to stand beside Xu Qing, watched the sunset with him, thought for a while and said: "The most important thing is to have a place to live, and then to be able to eat."
While talking, he glanced at the old house, and he met.
"And then?" Xu Qing asked.
"Then... get help."
"Who can I ask for help? Who can help her go back?"
"..." Xu Wenbin paused, staring into the distance in silence, "If you can come, maybe you can go back."
"This is not a movie. There are so many miracles in real life. According to the movie, flying over the walls and holding weapons on the street, there is an old enemy who came together, and they fell in love with modern people while fighting. What did you find in the end? Artifacts, treasures or relics, I ran back again, and at the end, I ran into the heroine in suits and shoes... "
Xu Qing laughed as he said, "You can't imagine it if you don't really meet it, and I can't imagine it either. Only when you really meet it can you try your best to arrange it based on the existing situation."
"How to arrange it?" Xu Wenbin asked.
"If I were a hero who suddenly fell from the sky, how would you help me gain a foothold in this society?"
"I… "
Xu Wenbin opened his mouth, squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, "A place to live, and then eat enough, and then learn everything here step by step."
"This is the only way to go." Xu Qing agreed.
"Buy textbooks to help her make up for the nine-year compulsory education?" Xu Wenbin asked.
"There is no way. We all grew up in this social environment, passively learning, and learning to contact the world. The ancients did not have this kind of conditions, so they could only stuff everything in their heads and rely on time to wear it down." Xu Qing said .
Xu Wenbin nodded lightly, "Take her out more when she's free...at least to get acquainted in the community, and it also takes time. Plus there is an Internet, as long as you learn how to surf the Internet, it will be much easier."
He looked at Xu Qing and said, "After a few years of hard work, you will basically be able to live independently."
"How many years?" Xu Qing asked.
"About... three years?" Xu Wenbin was uncertain.
Xu Qing leaned on the railing and shook her head, "If she is smarter, has a strong learning ability, and has the help of the Internet, I can find her making rapid progress every once in a while, and I think it will be about a year."
"Then the rest is identity." Xu Wenbin said.
"Identity is not easy to deal with. Compared with identity, other things are trivial. This takes time the most. In the worst case, it will take more than ten years. Half a generation of people live in such a long span from elementary school to college entrance examination. They have been harassed all the time. At the household registration office, you can always get through the relationship.” Xu Qing expected the worst situation, which was much better than Jiang He’s stupid and violent woman. , give birth to a child and register as a single parent.
"protracted war?"
"A protracted war." Xu Qing smiled, "And you can't hide for too long. If you hide for three or five years and then go, people ask why you delay until now, then it's hard to say, too early is not good, maybe the time is short It will be checked by Tianyan, and under the trajectory of big data, it is easy to expose the sudden appearance of this incident, the best time is about two years, when you have just reached the age of marriage, and you are anxious about the household registration, so it is logical."
"Think very carefully." Xu Wenbin sighed.
"It's about whether we can gain a legal foothold, and it must be detailed."
"It turned out to be very lucky, so much preparation was useless, right? It was for nothing." Xu Wenbin glanced at him.
"It's better to be prepared than not to be prepared."
"Have you thought of another way?"
"what?"
"Confess directly." Xu Wenbin rubbed his thumbs together, "If there is such a thing..." He sighed, "You have been hiding for ten years and wiped everything out."
"From an artistic point of view, this kind of romance is unique. From a practical point of view, in your eyes, she has only research value."
Xu Qing raised his head slightly, looked at the white clouds in the sky, paused for a moment and turned to look at Xu Wenbin, "Why don't you think about it from her perspective?"
Why not think about it from her point of view
"From the perspective of ancient people?" Xu Wenbin was stunned.
"That's right, look at our technological prosperity, if there is a real ancient person, what do you think she would think?"
"Ok… "
Xu Wenbin tried his best to substitute, "Be shocked by the tall buildings... and then... I'm not an ancient person."
"Live, it's a biological instinct, no matter modern people or ancient people, they don't want to die." Xu Qing spread his hands and turned his eyes to the distance again.
"Then, to live well, the ancient people are no different from us. They all want to eat enough, sleep well, have food in the tank, land outside, and money in their pockets. After living, there is life, the life of normal people. "
"And then?" Xu Wenbin felt strange.
"Where is the meaning of living after continuing? Isn't a person's life just life? Life is enough. If you have to add a later, it is a stable, stable life. No one wants to fight every day. , being hacked by someone while walking or jumping out to rob money, life is not a movie, there is no necessary theme, fate, blood feud, obsession... These are all for the dramatization of the plot, in our reality, this is enough. Come on After modern times, there are two things, one is to live, and the other is to live hard.”
Xu Qing raised his third finger, "Even if there is a third thing, it is definitely not to be studied by others, or to be restricted like a giant panda, but as a modern person, to enjoy everything in modern times as much as possible, harmonious Stability and prosperity, this is already the ultimate ideal, so what else can you plan for?"
"So you helped her settle down in this era..."
"Since Jiang He has come to the most splendid era in these thousands of years, he should enjoy it according to his own wishes."
"..."
Xu Wenbin was silent.
Xu Jin, Xu Shi'an.
He now understands why Xu Qing chose these two names that don't quite match, one with two characters and the other with three characters.
If I guessed correctly, Jiang He should have picked it.
"I am her relative, Dad, and so are you." Xu Qing said.
"I don't know which sentence in your mouth is the truth."
"The world is so big, there are so many wonders." Xu Qing shrugged, "Maybe that Wang Mang is the same age as you, really."
"..."
Xu Wenbin stared at his expression seriously, thoughts tumbling in his mind.
"I would rather believe that you were deceived."
Compared with believing in an absurd possibility, this is more reliable, so everything makes sense-only the practice of martial arts, but it is not a big problem. In ancient times, everyone practiced martial arts. A set of fists and a set of swords prove nothing.
This is probably the only truth. Maybe Jiang He had delusions, Xu Qing believed in it, and then he was really raised as an ancient person, so what happened now.
"I can tell whether it's true or not, but... I can't show it to you." Xu Qing shook his head, "Dad, you can just listen to a story."
"How to tell?"
"can not say."
"Is there anything you can't say?"
"Dad, this is boring." Xu Qing said.
"Forget it, it's been ten years, and it's the same whether I believe it or not, and it doesn't change anything, so you told me." Xu Wenbin waved his hand, "You are even on guard against me."
"It's hurtful to say that."
"I'm the one who hurts feelings!"
Xu Wenbin turned around and went to the other side, stay away from this guy, even his father had been on guard for so long.
There are only two possibilities now, one is that Jiang He deceived Xu Qing, and the other is that everything is true, no matter which one, it is now the past tense, the young couple has two children, and this family is very stable.
Believe it or not, nothing can change.
This guy Xu Qing...
Xu Wenbin had mixed feelings.
"Aren't you going to pick up the baby?"
"Jiang He said she was going to pick it up. Today she drove the car to find a new supply channel."
The father and son stood on the terrace, one looked at the gate of the community with a relaxed expression, and the other frowned slightly, not very happy to get the answer.
"When I leave later, tell me what you can't say."
"No, Dad, do you care?" Xu Qing turned around.
…
Kindergarten entrance.
Jiang He leaned against the car door, waiting for Xu Jin and his brother to leave school.
Originally, she planned to tell Xu Qing about learning how to drive that she was not that kind of material, but seeing Xu Qing's eyes like this, Jiang He was so angry that he only ate a big bowl of rice at night.
Then in the middle of the night, I picked up the booklets in the trash can, flipped through them every day at the flower shop, sometimes took Gong Ping to teach her, and finally slapped the driver's license in front of Xu Qing, making him bray like a donkey three times before it was over. .
"Goodbye, auntie!"
"Hello, auntie!"
"Goodbye, auntie!"
The children came out in a line, and the Shi'an sister and brother in front bowed their heads to say hello to Jiang He, not to mention that the kindergarten teaches good manners every day, and everyone likes the pretty aunt.
Jiang He smiled and nodded.
Qin Xiao: "Hello, Auntie!"
Xu Shi'an: "Hello, Auntie!"
Two people passed by happily.
Jiang He's smile disappeared.
Xu Jin grabbed Xu Shian's schoolbag strap and pulled him back from behind Qin Xiao.
"What did you call me just now?" Jiang He felt that Xu Shi'an had inherited Xu Qing's stupidity. That time when Xu Qing learned how to bray like a donkey, this guy followed suit.
"mom!"
Xu Shi'an's eyes lit up, as if he saw Jiang He only now.
"You and Xiaoxiao go home."
"I do not!"
"Go."
"I don't!" Xu Shi'an was confident, he opened the door and got in, waiting for Jiang He to drive.
