Awakened by the continuous crowing of chickens outside, Chen Xing slowly opened his eyes. Seeing the khaki roof above his head and smelling the damp smell from the quilt on his body, he sighed silently in his heart. .
Chen Xing felt that no matter how long he had been here, he was still not used to the life here, not to mention that he only had three days to become Chen Xing here.
That's right, Chen Xing is not from here at all. He was originally a native of country Z living in the 21st century. When chefs from other countries communicated, the plane encountered an unexpected situation, which caused the plane to crash. He also changed from the original Chen Xing to the ancient "Chen Xing".
This Chen Xing was born to the Patriarch of the Chen family and a concubine in the mansion. Although he is also the heir of Master Chen, his status in the mansion is no different from that of a servant.
The most depressing thing for Chen Xing was that not only did he time travel to become an ancient person, but he also went to a dynasty that he had never heard of, and the people here actually had three genders, men, women and brothers. The first two are the same as the previous life, only the last one, which obviously has the appearance of a man, is able to bear children.
Fortunately, the folk customs here are quite sturdy. Both women and brothers have a high degree of freedom. Apart from being unable to be an official, other things can be done. If not, Chen Xing felt that he would die of depression.
"Chen Xing, are you up yet? Madame has been in a bad mood for the past two days, we have to go to work quickly, or we will be caught by Madam's dog legs!"
Just when Chen Xing lamented his situation and slowly packed up and got up, he heard someone calling him outside the door. He responded quickly, packed himself in a hurry and walked out of the woodshed. Looking at his own person, Chen Xing smiled at him, "Let's go."
The brother who came to call Chen Xing was named Zhou Guo, the third child of the housekeeper. Because of the housekeeper's sake, he usually picked up some idle jobs to do. When Chen Xing first arrived, he helped him drive away a hooligan. After that, Zhou Guo became more enthusiastic about him, and liked to do everything with Chen Xing.
The task of the two of them today is to clean the front yard.
Zhou Guo worked very quickly, and cleaned up the area he was in charge of in a short while, then picked up the broom and came to Chen Xing, pulled his sleeves, and lowered his voice: "Chen Xing, look quickly, it is The scholar from the Gu family actually came to our house."
Hearing the excitement in Zhou Guo's tone that couldn't be concealed, Chen Xing raised his head and looked in the direction he pointed, only in time to see a thin figure in a blue scholar's uniform.
"It's a pity." Zhou Guo's voice sounded in Chen Xing's ear, his tone full of regret.
Chen Xing was a little confused when he heard the words, and didn't understand what he was regretting, so he asked directly.
Zhou Guo looked around and saw that there was no one else here except them, so she leaned closer to Chen Xing's ear and gossiped, "Do you know the relationship between the scholar named Gu and the Chen family?"
Chen Xing shook his head.
Zhou Guo's eyes were full of gossip, and he said excitedly to Chen Xing: "The Gu family was originally a wealthy businessman, and this young master of the Gu family was a famous child prodigy. The Gu family made an engagement.
Later, Gu's family committed a serious crime and was punished by the county master. Most of the family property was confiscated, and the whole family was killed by bandits who fled down the mountain. Only Young Master Gu escaped, so he left here to seek a living.
A few years later, the county master did not know what mistake he had made and was beheaded by the new emperor, and this young master Gu also came back. It's just that the prodigy who was praised by everyone in the past has become a medicine jar. Without the support of Wan Guan's family wealth, I don't know how long I can live. "
Zhou Guo shook his head regretfully, as if lamenting the tragic experience of the young master of the Gu family, "It is said that he came back this time to fulfill his marriage contract with the Chen family. But everyone in the county thinks he is a lone star of evil spirits. , against father and mother, against relatives. Right now, he himself is dying, and he doesn't know what Madam will do."
Listening to Zhou Guo's words, Chen Xing became a little curious about the man who just walked past, but this curiosity didn't last long, after all, he himself was too busy to take care of himself now, so naturally he didn't have extra thoughts to care about others.

In the main hall of the Chen family, Mrs. Chen saw off Gu Lang who had come, and asked the servants to sprinkle grapefruit leaf water on the way he passed by with a gloomy face to avoid bad luck.
The Fourth Miss of the Gu family who was peeking from behind the screen just now ran out, pulled her coquettishly and said, "Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Mrs. Chen stroked her beloved daughter's soft hair, and said darkly: "Mother is thinking about the request made by the evil star just now."
The purpose of Gu Lang's coming here is very clear. He no longer insists that the Chen family can marry his daughter to him. He only hopes that the Chen family can return the betrothal gift to him so that he can have money to buy medicine.
But the dowry was given by the Gu family when they were rich and honored, and they did it with full sincerity. The Gu family has not seen a single person in these years, the Chen family has long since died as the Gu family, and the betrothal gift has long been used by the Chen family as their own.
Now that Gu Lang came to ask for something, how could he give it back? Even if he did, Mrs. Chen felt extremely heartbroken when she thought of spending such a large sum of money.
Miss Chen Jiasi thought of Gu Lang's handsome face she saw just now, her heart fluttered, and she whispered in Mrs. Chen's ear: "What do you want to do, mother?"
Mrs. Chen squeezed the handkerchief tightly, her face was extremely ugly, "If so much money is returned, I am a little reluctant. It's just that the evil star still has the original Geng Tie in his hand. If he makes a fuss, our Chen family will also die." I can't afford to lose this person, not to mention that your brother is about to take the imperial examination, so his reputation cannot be damaged."
Miss Si looked up at Mrs. Chen, and asked with some doubts: "Then mother is planning to marry him?"
Mrs. Chen frowned even deeper, and said in a sarcastic tone: "How is it possible, you are the only daughter of the Chen family's age now, how could Mother let you marry that short-lived ghost? He also had a good idea. I have to think Find a way to see how you can keep the money without having to suffer.”

"Chen Xing, take this tray of dim sum to the front hall later, be careful not to drop it."
Chen Xing responded to the cook, picked up the tray and walked towards the front yard. After staying here for a few days, he had already memorized the terrain of the mansion, and he arrived at the front hall in a short while.
After carefully placing the plate of delicate pastries on the table, he was about to step back, but at this moment Mrs. Chen stopped him, "Who is that, wait a minute, raise your head."
Chen Xing usually hides from the masters of the mansion whenever he can, and avoids whenever he can, for fear of getting himself into unnecessary trouble. Hearing Mrs. Chen's request at this time, my heart skipped a beat. I had a bad premonition, but I didn't dare to go against her wishes, and raised my head to look in Mrs. Chen's direction.
After seeing Chen Xing's appearance clearly, Mrs. Chen narrowed her eyes slightly, as if thinking of something, her face turned cold again, and she waved him away impatiently.
Seeing this, Chen Xing breathed a sigh of relief silently, and retreated carefully.
Mrs. Chen looked at his back, her eyes gradually became thoughtful, and she muttered in a low voice: "I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, that bastard from back then grew so big."
Until Chen Xing's back was completely invisible, Mrs. Chen was still staring at his direction and thinking, as if she was planning some bad idea.
*
Chen Xing had been busy with Zhou Guo for a whole day, and only had a moment of rest until it was dark for dinner.
"Chen Xing, sit down quickly, there is meat to eat today!"
As soon as Chen Xing entered the kitchen, he heard the little maid who was washing dishes yelling at him, telling him to sit down and eat quickly.
Chen Xing smiled at her, sat down and looked at the randomly fried dishes on the table, and once again sighed in his heart. As a person who likes heavy flavors, he really can't appreciate the light dishes here. However, he also knew that he had no room to be picky when he came here, so he started to eat under the enthusiastic greetings of everyone.
Just when Chen Xing and the others were enjoying their meal, a servant girl about sixteen or seventeen years old suddenly came in at the door, standing in front of everyone and said proudly: "Is Chen Xing here? Madam wants to see him, come with me." Let's go."
The person who came was the big maid beside Mrs. Chen, and she usually followed Mrs. Chen to do things. Compared with their servants who were rough envoys, she was naturally superior to others. Therefore, when she spoke like this, the others didn't think there was something wrong there, but Qiqi turned her head to look at Chen Xing who was sitting there silently eating.
Following their gazes, the servant girl also looked at Chen Xing. The moment she saw Chen Xing's appearance, a flash of surprise flashed in the servant girl's eyes, her delicate eyebrows were also furrowed, and she said dryly: "Since you are here Here, hurry up and follow me, do you still want Madam to wait for you?"
Hearing what she said, Chen Xing didn't dare to delay any longer. He quickly swallowed his last mouthful of food, stood up in a hurry, and followed her to Mrs. Chen's place.
On the way, thinking of the way Mrs. Chen looked at him today, Chen Xing always had a bad premonition. This premonition finally came true after he stepped into Mrs. Chen's territory and was stared at by Mrs. Chen for a quarter of an hour. .
Mrs. Chen slowly put down the tea in her hand, and the saucer made a crisp sound on the table. She looked straight at Chen Xing and said kindly, "I haven't paid attention to you for a long time, and I didn't expect you to be like this." Now that you are older, it is time for you to get married. Just in time, I have found a good marriage for you, so you can choose a good day and get married."
Chen Xing was startled suddenly, looked up at her, and said hastily, "I don't want to get married yet." Damn it, he doesn't want an arranged marriage!
Mrs. Chen sneered, looked at him sharply, and said sarcastically, "Do you think I'm discussing with you? You don't even think about what you are!"

Chen Xing, once a treacherous official, once assassinated, became an actor a thousand years later.
The actor's net worth is clean, but he is a bit unlucky.
In the front, there was a group of blood-sucking family members who needed him to support, and in the back, there was a group of sunspots who scolded him to die, and in the middle were managers who wanted to pimp him.
When he met Ling Tian, Chen Xing had just finished beating up the beneficiary his manager had found for him in a ktv where demons were dancing wildly.
The young man stared at his blood-stained hands in astonishment, and asked stutteringly, "Are you okay?"
Ling Tian looked at the boy's face that looked like he had just grown up, and smiled recklessly and flamboyantly, "It's okay, kid, remember to go home early."
After being kicked out by the agent, Ling Tian saw the child again.
The child blushed and stammered: "Well, I know you are in trouble now. I, I want to be your benefactor."
Ling Tian glanced at the child who was half a head taller than himself, with a pretty face and pure eyes, raised his eyebrows, and responded simply: "Okay!"
Later, Ling Tian found out that this kid was the top prince in the entertainment industry. He just turned 20 the day he met him.
