Tianxingyuanji

Chapter 1 Origin

The Changqing River flows through the foot of Yihua Mountain, winding around Yihua Mountain, Shaohua Mountain and Taihua Mountain. The impact between the mountains and the flat land constantly attracts people from outside the mountain to settle here.

Hundreds of years later, the current Hewan Village was formed. The largest Yi family in the village was the first group of people to settle here.

It has a history of 150 years. It is said that the ancestors of the Yi family opened an ancestral hall in Hewan Village after encountering a fairy in Yihua Mountain. It has continued for nearly ten generations.

In fact, people who stay in the village generally have only two ways out. Those who have the ability go out to do business to make a living, and the rest have to farm in their hometowns.

The old man of the Yi family has two sons. He is not good at writing or martial arts, but he is a first-class expert in business and farming. The two brothers have been collecting grains from the village in recent years.

Yi Da opened a grain shop in Hewan County, and Yi Er was responsible for the grain transportation.Although it is not full in the past few years, there are many surpluses.

The family has made money, and the old man is happy and has ideas. Although it is not bad to make money in business, he is still despised by others.

He simply spent money to build a house and set up a private school in the village. He also invited a poor scholar from the city to teach, hoping that one day there would be a scholar in the family.

Originally, there was no ink in the belly of the country people, and the names they gave were cats and dogs.The first thing the Master did after he came was to change the names of the two grandchildren. The big house had no male, and the second house had two grandsons. The older one was named Yi Tian and the younger was Yi Qun.

When the master first came, Yi Tian was still very diligent, and he was more attentive to reading and writing, but Yi Tian's behavior has been a bit strange since he was seriously ill two days ago. At the beginning of the period, he always said something inexplicable.

The family was anxious, the old man even asked the goddess Wang in the village to get some immortal ash and water for his grandson to drink. After a few days, he recovered a lot. Since then, Yi Tian has been a little bit reluctant to talk to people, and he just lays down when he has nothing to do. The straw piles in the yard stared blankly at the sky.

Yi Tian still has to go to school after he recovers from his illness, but he seems to have lost his enthusiasm for learning before he has changed. Now, every day, the private school is messed up. After school, he fought dogs in the village, and after returning home, he went to the river to catch fish. Over time, the master lost confidence.

Yi Tian is not interested in learning, but he always pesters the master to ask this and that.After a few days, I finally understood the land under my feet, which originally belonged to Dongjiang Kingdom, Mushan City, and Hewan Village under Hewan County.

From the mouth of Mr. Yi, I heard some legends of immortals. In Yihua Mountain, which is backed by Hewan Village, there were immortals haunting more than a hundred years ago.Cultivation of immortals is what Yi Tian yearns for most when he comes to this world, but he can only think about it.

The listeners are interested. Since that day, Yi Tian has been looking for the elders in the village to ask about the gods in the mountains. The idle old people in the village have such an audience, and they all start to talk nonsense, what gods are flying in the sky , In the mountains, there are ghosts and ghosts, there is one haunting one, so that Yi Tian doesn't go to the private school anymore, and he finds the old man in the village to chat.

The old man Yi was in a hurry when he saw it, and he hurriedly discussed with Yi Er whether the eldest grandson was sick and stupid, and it was time to ask the goddess Wang's family for more immortal ashes.

After drinking the fairy water a few times, Yi Tian became honest and stopped asking about the gods. He was bored at home every day and didn't even go out.Now the family can't do anything anymore. Mr. Yi wants to ask the goddess Wang to do a French style to exorcise evil spirits and protect the safety of his descendants.

After Yi Tian heard it behind the door, he went out the next day. He went to school when he should go to school. It was still those things every day, but there was always some disdain in his eyes.

The family finally returned to its previous state, at least on the surface it was happy.In the evening after the autumn harvest, the old man proposed to let Yi Tian go to the county town to learn his craftsmanship, and he would have a better life in the future. I would trouble the uncle in the city to help him to see if there are any helpers, and he will go next time he delivers food.Father Yi Er didn't object, as long as his son had a way out, he didn't know a few of the characters he was fighting for, and his son would definitely be more promising in the future after studying private school for a few years.

On the night after the autumnal equinox, Yi Er loaded up the car at home, and tomorrow was the day to deliver the food.This time, my son's temperament has changed greatly after his illness. It seems that he can't count on studying, or he should go to a store in the city to be an apprentice with the accountant, which will be useful in the future. It is better than farming in the countryside.

His wife, Mrs. Chen, didn’t object either. Ever since his son recovered from his illness, he had changed. He used to be well-behaved, but now he’s a boring gourd at home. It’s better to go to the city to learn some craftsmanship.

The father and son said goodbye to Mr. Yi after breakfast the next morning, and before leaving, they went to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors.Yi Er drove the ox cart, and his son sat in the cart and set off slowly to Hewan County.

The journey from the village to the county seat is only [-] miles away, and it will take less than two hours to arrive. Along the way, Yi Tian is slowly calculating his future. He doesn’t know the road ahead, so he can only take one step at a time, not to mention that he is only ten years old now.

Yi Er and his son rushed to the county seat in a chaotic car, and found the Yiji Miscellaneous Grain Shop at Beishikou.There are still a lot of people in the grain shop at noon, and they are basically ordinary people. Uncle Yida is the shopkeeper in the shop. The main job every day is to constantly patrol the shop.The work of greeting customers, buying, selling and weighing is all done by the staff. In the past few years, the belly has been getting bigger and bigger day by day.

Yi Er drove the ox cart to the side door and entered the inner courtyard. After arranging for the guys to unload the goods, he asked his brother to explain his intention.Yi Da also thought about it after reading the letter from the old man. Since the old man has his life, it is his responsibility.The letter said that the eldest nephew could read and count, so he would bring his nephew to the accountant, just in time for his own family to manage the accounts and feel at ease.

The accountant of the grain shop is called Wu Youdao. He is a poor scholar. His writing is not good, but he has a set of calculations. He has worked hard in the grain shop for a few years. Yi Da still trusts him. This time Yi Tian came to be an apprentice. After saying hello, the owner wants him to bring an apprentice, but it is not to steal his job. In the future, a branch store must have a cashier.

The first time I entered the door, I smelled the smell of sub-wine. Yi Tian thought to himself how his uncle found an alcoholic to manage the account. He couldn't remember the account when he was hot.But out of desperation, since it was my uncle who asked to be an apprentice with Mr. Accountant, there was nothing he could do.

After entering the door, I called Master Wu, and under the guidance of my uncle, I knelt down and kowtowed, which was regarded as a master ceremony.The accountant Wu had adjusted his clothes and was sitting in the room after receiving a big gift from Yi Tianxing, and he also told a few words about how to behave in the future.After that, I asked Yi Tianxing to go to the housekeeper to get a set of the guy's clothes and put them on, which was a good job.

When the father saw Yi Tianhou who had changed his clothes, he felt a little relieved. During lunch, he specially told his son to study hard, and he would have the opportunity to become a big shopkeeper in the future.After dinner, I said goodbye to my eldest brother and son, and drove the ox cart back to my hometown.

Yi Tian looked at his father who was gone, with tears in his eyes. The uncle thought in his eyes that it was the first time that the child had left home, and he panicked in his heart.Only Yi Tian muttered in his mouth: "Is my future a bookkeeper and a big shopkeeper?"
