Chapter 2 - The Strange Change of the Ancient Jade
"No!" Only now did her mother Li Xiaoling notice Zhang Yitian's appearance, and when she saw his actions, she couldn't help but cry out in alarm.
"Don't want what?" Zhang Zhongwen was suspicious.
In the next second, he felt a sharp pain from his back, and he almost fainted.
"Bastard, who are you calling a bastard?" Zhang Yitian looked at him angrily. In his heart, he held incomparable respect for his mother. His ways of doing things had always been according to the rules, and the villagers were all very polite to her.
Zhang Zhongwen stood up, the pain coming from his back made him wince, and he immediately became angry: "You actually dare to hit me? "Brat, you're looking for a beating!"
As he said that, he picked up the bowl in his hands and threw it towards Zhang Yitian's head.
Li Xiaoling was instantly stupefied by the scene in front of her. She was so worried that she couldn't even speak.
"So what if I hit you? I, Zhang Yitian, will never let go of the person who insulted my mother!" Zhang Yitian snorted coldly, picked up the wooden chair and smashed it onto the floor as well.
With a "Bang" sound, the porcelain bowl directly shattered into pieces on the wooden bench due to excessive force, and the wooden stool in Zhang Yitian's hand once again fell onto Zhang Zhongwen's arm.
She anxiously ran out, looked at Zhang Yitian and his mother, and scolded them in anger: "How can you kid be like this? No matter what, he's still your uncle.
"I don't have an uncle like him. Also, pay back the money that you owe first before you talk about raising your family." Zhang Yitian said coldly.
"Money money, you only know money. Have you forgotten the help we gave you when your family was farming?" Zheng Xiuhua said as she crossed her hands on her waist.
"Yeah, you guys help out. You also borrowed a plot of land from my dad, but he still hasn't returned it yet." Zhang Yitian continued to sneer.
Zheng Xiuhua's face fell as she supported his husband, Zhang Zhongwen, and carefully asked, "How was it? Do you want to go to the hospital? "
Zhang Zhongwen immediately understood what she meant and quickly said: "I'm afraid that I'll have a headache. I'm afraid that I'll need to make a movie."
"You want us to pay you back? Keep dreaming! It's best if you don't find out anything from the hospital, otherwise you'll just have to wait for the prison." Then, she supported Zhang Zhongwen as she prepared to return home.
"Also, you two hurry up and scram. You're not welcome here." she said angrily.
Zhang Yitian was about to say something when he was stopped by his mother. She sighed and said, "Let's go."
Since his mother had already spoken, Zhang Yitian could only push his mother's wheelchair back home.
He silently swore in his heart that he would not only get the three thousand yuan back, but he would also make those people who looked down on him feel disappointed.
"Mom, you clearly know that type of person in their family, so don't go and ask for it." Fortunately, nothing had happened to his mother, so Zhang Yitian relaxed.
"Your sister has run out of money. If you don't hit her, she's going to starve. Even if you don't have any money, you can still eat. Isn't there nothing I can do? " Her mother sighed, and looking at her back, Zhang Yitian's heart clenched tightly.
He remembered that when his father was still alive, although his mother was close to forty, she had to work hard and take great care of herself. She looked to be in her early thirties. But now, looking at his mother, not only had she lost a lot of weight, even her hair had lost a lot of color. In a year's time, she looked like she had aged more than ten years.
"I'll think of a way to pay for it. If it really doesn't work out, I'll borrow some more money from my classmates." Zhang Yitian felt bitter in his heart. Those classmates of his were already scared of him borrowing money, who would dare to lend it to him? But this matter definitely should not be worried for his mother.
"Sigh, this kind of life is never going to end." The mother sighed and said nothing more.
After returning home, Zhang Yitian cooked dinner for the two of them. After eating, it was already 10 pm.
After he washed his face, he noticed that his forehead was injured by the broken porcelain bowl and that a bit of blood had flowed out. However, Zhang Yitian who had grown up in the countryside did not care at all.
He did not notice that the red jade his father had left on his chest was stained with his blood.
While he was sleeping, the ancient jade suddenly released waves of fiery-red light, as though it was ignited. After a while, the red light shone brightly, illuminating the entire room where Zhang Yitian was sleeping.
Both he and his mother had long since fallen into a deep sleep, so no one paid any attention to them.
That night, Zhang Yitian had a very strange dream.
In his dreams, Zhang Yitian felt like he had come to an extremely spacious and empty place. There was nothing around him, and on top of his head, was a huge golden book, which was even bigger than Zhang Yitian.
"Where is this?" Zhang Yitian said.
"This is your space of consciousness." An elderly voice was heard, and immediately after, a faint figure appeared on the golden book, swaying about like a ghost.
Zhang Yitian was shocked, then he realised that it was just a dream, what was there to be afraid of?
"Then who are you?" Understanding this, Zhang Yitian felt that it was rather interesting. He actually had this kind of dream, he directly sat on the ground.
"I am Shen Nong." he said.
"I'm still Yellow Emperor Xuan Yuan." Zhang Yitian said in disdain. The dream was real.
"Why are you looking for me?" Zhang Yitian was getting a little impatient. This dream was different from the dreams he had before, it was the first time he had maintained such a clear consciousness while dreaming. He could even remember the events that had happened in the past few days.
"Are you willing to be my successor?" he asked slowly, his deep voice echoing through the air.
"Sorry, I still have to sell vegetables tomorrow." Zhang Yitian said in annoyance.
Shen Nong obviously did not expect Zhang Yitian to reject him so quickly. His face froze as he looked at Zhang Yitian's shameless look, and said indifferently: "Forget it!"
In the next moment, Zhang Yitian disappeared from the space of his consciousness and sank into a deep slumber.
That night, he slept exceptionally well. Even if someone who hadn't slept for three days suddenly found a pillow, there was still a beauty waiting beside him.
"Zhang Yitian, wake up, the sun is already shining on your buttocks!" Mother Li Xiaoling's voice rang, and Zhang Yitian immediately jumped out of bed in alarm. After that, he discovered that the sun had already risen high in the sky.
