She trembled all over, glanced at Zhou Sisi who looked dumbfounded, and suddenly raised her voice.
"Grandma Zhou, you just said that Sisi can also pray for rain, is that true?"
Zhuang Rongrong didn't believe Zhou Sisi could summon rain; she had no one to help her except Zhuque.
Moreover, the Vermilion Bird belongs to the element of fire, and water and fire are incompatible.
If she's going to lose face, she'll drag Zhou Sisi down with her!
Upon hearing her words, everyone stopped in their tracks, ready to leave.
They all turned to look at the only little girl in the Zhou family, and shook their heads.
The little girl from the Zhou family is no good. Although she's not stupid anymore, she's notorious for bringing bad luck. Do you think the Bodhisattva is blind?
The old lady didn't want the little one to steal the spotlight, and just as she opened her mouth, Zhuang Rongrong, with the intention of embarrassing Zhou Sisi, deliberately drowned out her voice.
"Little sister Sisi, is what Grandma Zhou said true? Why don't you come and try it on the altar?"
Long Sisi pouted. She wanted rain, but she didn't want so many complicated steps.
The more she remained still, the more pleased Zhuang Rongrong became.
At least she could manage to get a drizzle, but Zhou Sisi, that little baby, could probably only sneeze, wipe her nose, and pretend to be clueless to get away with it.
"Little Sisi, it's alright. The Bodhisattva had to leave today, so even if we don't get rain, no one will blame us..."
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly heard a soft, sweet sneeze.
Immediately afterwards, dark clouds gathered rapidly in the sky, accompanied by a fierce and deafening thunderclap.
Fearing being struck by lightning, the village chief instinctively stepped behind Zhuang Rongrong, trembling as he asked, "Could it be that the Bodhisattva has returned? Why is this lightning so fierce?"
In the crowd, Zhou Youfu was terrified and ran away as fast as he could with his child.
Long Sisi tilted her head and met Zhuang Rongrong's panicked eyes, then grinned at the village chief, "Grandpa Village Chief, the Bodhisattva doesn't care about rainfall, the Dragon King does."
No one is allowed to make it rain without her father's order.
But not her, hehehe, because she's Father's precious daughter.
The village chief was taken aback and subconsciously asked, "So Sisi means that praying to the Bodhisattva won't bring rain?"
"Yes, Grandpa Village Chief is so smart."
Long Sisi rubbed her itchy nose and sneezed again.
In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and torrential rain poured down.
This rain was more than twice as heavy as the rain that Zhuang Rongrong had been begging on her knees for half a day.
The villagers, no longer dejected, danced and revelled in the heavy rain.
"Hahaha, it's raining, it's raining, it's finally raining."
"We're saved! The bookmakers are saved!"
The villagers who had collapsed and felt dizzy were refreshed after being drenched in the rain. They sprang up from the ground as if they had inexhaustible energy.
"I was feeling dizzy just now, but after being drenched in this rain, my dizziness has disappeared, and I feel energetic all over. I could dig three acres of land in no time if you asked me to."
"Absolutely! This rain is truly divine!"
"Hey, can you guys see how it's raining?"
Someone immediately responded, "I saw it! It was that silly girl from the Zhou family. She sneezed twice and the rain started pouring down right away. It's unbelievable!"
"Could it be that only that silly girl can summon rain? But she didn't do anything, isn't that too far-fetched?"
"Didn't you hear what someone just said? The Bodhisattva doesn't concern himself with these matters. No wonder Rongrong prayed for so long and no rain came. She prayed to the wrong person."
Zhuang Rongrong was soaked to the bone, surrounded by gossip, and she was on the verge of a breakdown.
How is that possible?
She put in so much effort and went through so much hardship, and then Zhou Sisi sneezed and it started raining?
Why? It's unfair, this is unfair!
Large tears mingled with the raindrops and fell. Before she could come up with a solution, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were being watched by something.
She looked up in a daze, and with a loud bang, a bolt of lightning shattered the barrier and headed straight for her.
The village chief was horrified and scrambled to the side.
A loud bang.
The altar collapsed.
It took a long time for everyone to recover from their shock.
"Help!"
Someone shouted, and everyone rushed to dig people out of the ruins.
Taking advantage of the chaos, the old lady shouted, "Fifth brother, quickly pick up Sisi, let's go home."
"Mother, Erqian is missing." Qin looked around anxiously but couldn't find Zhou Erqian anywhere.
Without a doubt, they went to rescue Zhuang Rongrong.
"Never mind him for now, let's go back!"
Sisi has gained such attention; it's hard to say whether it's a good thing or a bad thing. They should go back and think about it carefully.
Zhou Dawei also woke up. He clutched his chest blankly, somewhat dazed as he thought about what had happened not long ago.
If Sisi hadn't pulled out that hairband, it probably would have grown into his flesh.
How could there be something so terrifying?
"Can this be considered a good thing? The rumors are too exaggerated. What if someone with ulterior motives takes notice? Our Sisi is only three and a half years old."
The old lady hurried into the house. The rain hadn't stopped yet. She found a handkerchief and carefully wiped the rain off the two children.
Madam Qin looked worried. "Why don't we find a reason and say it was a coincidence, or that it was God's mercy?"
"They have to believe it too."
"The rain outside is really heavy. It seems that Rongrong is quite capable." Zhou Dawei propped himself up and sighed inwardly, but the hairband she gave him was really strange.
Upon hearing this, none of them uttered a sound.
Only Xie Yan spoke coldly, "Brother is mistaken. She didn't beg for the rain."
"If she didn't ask for it, then why did it rain?"
Zhou Dawei didn't understand, but seeing the serious expressions on their faces, he cautiously asked, "Has something happened?"
