"Ah~ah!"

Song Xiao was startled awake by the sounds!

Covering her heavy head, she looked around. There was a dilapidated wooden bed, a patched quilt, and dark walls.

In the corner, a young boy huddled there shivering. He had many bruises, new ones layered over old ones. It seemed he had been beaten, for the pain was too much for him to bear silently.

"You're awake!"

Ziqiang gritted his teeth, supporting himself on his knees with both hands before standing up.

The voice was tinged with weariness, yet held a certain tenderness that evoked pity. Looking at her, one couldn't help but feel compassion. Her skin was as smooth and white as sheep fat jade, and her large, bright eyes welled up with tears. Though slightly thin, she still possessed a captivatingly sculpted figure...

"Sorry, I didn't hit you!"

Song Xiao's threw away the whip in his hand. As a person who had received higher education in the 21st century, how could he do such a beastly thing.

As a double doctorate holder from a prestigious university, he quickly climbed the corporate ladder in a large company after graduation. He then led his team to start his own company.

For the company's development, he had to juggle research and development with attending various social gatherings. Last night, in order to retain a major client, he finished two bottles of 52-degree white liquor and was sent back to his hotel by his colleagues in a hazy state.

What's the situation right now? Is this some kind of special service arranged by the hotel? It's a bit too real, isn't it?

Song Xiaowang panicked, opened the door and rushed out. "Oh my god!"

Everywhere you look, there are dilapidated thatched houses and scattered parasol trees. The sun cast its rays on the river not far away, where a few crows croaked as they flew off into the distance.

What situation? I've struggled for over a decade to finally make it to the middle class, got my own company, bought a house and a car. I haven't even had time to get married in my middle age, and now I'm being sent back to ancient times!

If I were a prince in ancient times, that would be great! A fine horse with five flowers, a thousand-gold cloak, "Hey boy, bring me wine!" Life would be so enjoyable!

Even if he ended up as a kept son-in-law in a wealthy household, it wouldn't be so bad! But with his current situation, I doubt he could even afford to eat.

"Gulu gulu..." Just as I thought of this, my stomach started to rumble.

"You're right, I'll cook for you!" Seeing her so submissive, Song Xiaochuan felt a pang of pity.

In his past life, he was too busy with his career to find true love. When he reached middle age, he had money but feared not finding someone genuine. He never expected that in ancient times, a son would be so devoted to him!

After a moment of dizziness, all sorts of memories flooded his brain!

Originally, this was the era of the Dazing Dynasty, similar to the feudal period in past lives. It emphasized the rules between ruler and subject, father and son, husband and wife.

Once a daughter is married, she has to shoulder all the household chores and work tirelessly. Even if she dies from exhaustion, she cannot leave. Unless her husband divorces her with a letter of dismissal.

At this time, there was no industry yet. The sky was blue and the water was green. The environment was clean, cleaner even than what was inside my belly.

Looking at the bowl of dark porridge placed before him, Song Xiaochuan couldn't help but frown. Used to big fish and meat, he really couldn't stomach this stuff.

"Don't hit me, I'm going to my aunt's house to borrow some rice!"

Seeing him angry, Su Xiaoxiao's face turned pale with fright.

"Don't go, sit down and eat with us!"

From memory, Song Xiaochuan already understood the basic situation. The owner of the painting in front of him was a good-for-nothing who liked to drink and gamble.

He spent all the money in the house, even his wife's dowry. Whenever he wanted to drink, he would force Su Xiaoxiao to borrow money, and if she couldn't repay it, he would beat her viciously.

"Damn bastard!" He thought to himself, and slapped himself in the face.

Su Xiaoxiao was so startled that she fell to the ground: "I'll definitely get the grain back, I promise..." She cried as she ran outside.

“Come back!” Song Xiao’s voice was slightly louder, and Su Xiaxia obediently sat back down.

"Finish this bowl of rice first, and I'll go prepare some fish!"

In Su Xiaoxiao's unbelievable eyes, Song Xiao carried an axe and went out the door.

Although our house isn't wealthy, we have mountains, water, and land. There's no way we can't fill our stomachs.

He used to be lazy, not only did he refuse to farm but also gambled and drank heavily. But after all, he was a man. He was much stronger than Su Xiao Xiao in fishing and hunting.

Song Xiaochuan, who had gone out, was unaware that Su Xiaoxiao hadn't dared to eat the bowl of rice at home. He came to the riverbank and first observed the flow of water.

The river in front of the village is relatively shallow, but it's said to hold large fish. If you want to catch a big one, you need to look for deeper pools.

Right now, there are no fishing rods or nets. It's impossible to spearfish either. That requires a high level of skill and the probability of catching fish is very low.

But Song Xiaogang was not deterred. He first found a section of relatively thin bamboo. Then he used an axe to split the bamboo pole, making several bamboo tubes.

Next, use the stripped bamboo bark to make several fish traps in conjunction with bamboo tubes. These bamboo tube traps are designed so that fish can easily swim in but once inside they get stuck and can't get out.

Although this only catches small fish, it's better than having nothing to eat.

To make the fish enter the trap quickly, bait is a must. This was not a problem for him; he just dug up a few earthworms, cut them into pieces and put them in.

Sure enough, after a short while, three of the five bamboo traps had caught fish.

He couldn't wait any longer. After Song Xiao took out the fish and reset the trap, he carried three fish back home. He felt that if he didn't eat soon, he might faint from hunger.

"Why haven't you eaten? Hurry up and cook these three fish!"

"Fine, I'll do it myself!"

Su Xiaoxiao thought her ears were playing tricks on her. This drunkard gambler actually brought back three fish! Not only did he bring back the fish, but he was also going to cook them.

Uh... After arriving in the kitchen, Song Xiaochuan started to have trouble again.

Although iron pans appeared during the Daqing period, stir-frying hadn't emerged yet. Moreover, their household didn't have any oil, neither plant-based nor animal-derived oil at all.

I originally wanted to pan-fry the fish, but it seems like I can only steam it now. Why not grill it? Because the fish is rather small, grilling it would be a waste.

Some wild scallions were plucked from outside the door, and a sprinkle of salt was added. Soon, a plate of steamed fish was ready.

Seeing Song Xiaochuan carrying the fish out, Su Xiaoxiao's eyes turned red again.

"Don't cry, don't cry, come eat some fish. You've lost so much weight!"

I divided the rice porridge into two portions, giving Su Xia a bowl and then adding a fish to it. I thought it might not be enough, so I added another one.

"Just one, just one is enough!"

Su Xiaoxiao was so frightened that she hurriedly pushed the fish back, while Song Xiao was insistent on giving it to her. As a result, he accidentally dropped it onto the table with a loud "plop".

"Don't hit me!" The weaker son trembled and fell to his knees. He clutched at the corners of his clothes, bowing his head with a pale face, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably.

Song Xiaochuan frowned, this child must have gone through a lot of hardship.

"Silly girl, wake up! Let's eat together!" He said as he picked up the fish, blew off the dust on the surface, and divided it in half.

"Are you really giving this to me?" Su Xiaoxiao still couldn't believe it!

"Eat up, I'll go catch more tomorrow. It will make you plump and give birth to a big son."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao blushed and lowered her head, even her ears turning red.

Steamed fish is relatively easy to cook, but this fish is truly fresh. It's no wonder that where there is no pollution, the food tastes like nature. It's very delicious, the only pity is that the salt has a slightly bitter taste.

By the way, you can make salt yourself!

Some people died, but they didn't die completely...

After an endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly jolted awake from his bed. To read the latest chapters, please download

He took deep breaths of fresh air, one after another.

Confusion and bewilderment, a torrent of emotions surged through my mind.

What is this?

After that, Shiyu subconsciously observed his surroundings, and then he was even more lost.

A single room?

Even if he received help, he should be in the hospital ward now.

... and there are still your own... How could you not even have a scratch.

With suspicion, Shiyu's gaze quickly scanned the room before finally settling on a mirror on the bedside table.

The mirror reflected his current appearance, about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was very handsome.

The problem is, this isn't him! Download, read the latest chapters for free and ad-free.

The person I was before, was an extraordinary handsome young man in his twenties who had worked for a while.

And now, looking at this appearance, it seems like just a high school student's age....

This change left Shiyu stunned for a long time.

Don't tell him your hands are very...

His appearance has completely changed. This isn't just a matter of his skills, but something supernatural.

He had completely transformed into a different person!

Could it be...that I travelled through time?

Apart from the mirror with an obviously bad feng shui placement by the bed, Shiyu also found three books beside it.

Shi Yu picked it up and looked. The moment he saw the title, he fell silent.

A Handbook for New Pet Owners

Aftercare for Childbirth

Guide to Judging the Alien Race Ear Maidens

Timeless: ???

The first two book titles are normal, but what's with the last one?

"Cough."

Shi Yu's eyes became serious, he made a move, but soon his arm froze.

Just as he was about to open the third book and see what it was, his brain suddenly shot with pain, and a flood of memories came rushing in like water.

Ice Age City.
