Chapter 50 No Water? I'll Create My Own Spirit Spring
A few seconds later, when Shi Yu opened her eyes again, all the fatigue in them had vanished.
"Mother! I'm alright!"
She gently patted Huang Ying's arm and smiled at her.
At that moment, she came back to life.
"Yuyu, what do we do next?" Huang Ying asked cautiously, seeing that Shiyu was feeling better.
"Um……"
Following her words, Shi Yu thought for a moment.
She naturally wouldn't reveal that she used her supernatural abilities to repel trematodes and purify the water.
But it won't be a free lunch for Shi Jiaojiao.
Since Mr. Jin's prestige could influence the outcome of this matter, she might as well write a letter to him and ask him to make the trip in person.
"I'll write a letter and ask Mr. Jin to come over."
The fish moves as soon as it's told to.
Huang Ying was stunned as she watched Shi Yu's movements.
She never imagined that the person who saved the youngest grandson of the old man was actually... her own daughter!
"My fish is amazing!" Huang Ying raised her hand and gently rubbed the top of the fish's head, her face full of pride and joy.
But then, as if remembering something, she sighed helplessly, "Writing letters won't help; we can't leave the island. I heard Lin Zhicheng and his mother are leaving soon. Should I go and ask him for help?"
Shi Yu paused in his movements.
Then, her disdain became blatantly obvious.
Seeing that her daughter was unhappy, Huang Ying quickly said, "Yu Yu, you don't need to go. I'll go and ask him for help."
"You're not allowed to go!" Shi Yu said firmly.
She would beg pigs and dogs, but Lin Zhicheng would not listen to her at all.
"Don't worry, Mother, I have a plan."
"What method?"
"Use carrier pigeons."
"Carrier pigeon?"
Huang Ying was stunned.
She had heard of carrier pigeons before.
Those are animals that only people in counties or above can keep as pets. Does Heishan Island have them?
She had never seen this thing before, not even in Chang'an Village, let alone on Black Mountain Island.
Before Huang Ying could ask her question again, Shi Yu had already finished writing the letter, folded it neatly, and quickly walked into the courtyard.
Huang Ying hurriedly followed him out.
She stood behind Shi Yu, who was looking up at the sky intently, seemingly lost in thought. Huang Ying didn't dare to disturb her.
Time passed by, second by second.
"Oh my god!"
A moment later, Huang Ying stared in shock at a white pigeon that was spreading its wings from the horizon and flying towards Shi Yu with all its might, and covered her mouth.
I was afraid that making any noise would disturb it.
A faint smile played on Shi Yu's lips as she slowly raised her arm.
Whoosh!
The pigeon landed steadily on Shi Yu's forearm.
"Good boy!" Shi Yu gently stroked its back, tied the letter to its leg, and then threw it into the air. "Go!"
The pigeons flew away.
Huang Ying stood there blankly.
This scene was clearly beyond her comprehension.
"Mom, let's go back inside!" Shi Yu called out to her with a smile.
"...Oh, okay!"
After a while, Huang Ying finally came to her senses and followed.
Just before dinner, Huang Ying carried a bucket out of her house.
There's not much fresh water left at home.
Now that the remaining two large buckets of fresh water are clean, we can proceed with the second fresh water distribution.
But to everyone's surprise, Huang Ying returned very soon.
The bucket in her hand was empty, and her face looked terrible.
"What's wrong, Mother? Didn't you buy water?" Shi Yu turned to look at her and asked with concern.
“Then…” Huang Ying’s face turned bright red, and she looked angry, but she swallowed the words back.
Yu Yu's credit was stolen, she was smeared, and she was misunderstood by everyone, which made things even worse.
She didn't want to upset her anymore.
"Well! We couldn't buy any, we ran out of fresh water. So... we didn't get a turn," Huang Ying explained reluctantly.
Then, she got up, walked to the water tank, and looked down into it.
"Why!"
Huang Ying sighed softly, a hint of sorrow lingering between her brows.
Shi Yu gave her a deep look.
What else is there that I don't understand?
Mother is being ostracized.
Shi Yu narrowed her eyes thoughtfully. She didn't like being controlled by others, so she immediately had the idea of creating a spiritual spring in her space to be self-sufficient.
Shi Yu made up an excuse and went to the backyard.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Yu's figure flashed and she entered Shi Jiaojiao's space.
Nourished by the supernatural power, the space has become much larger and the light is more abundant.
really!
The conditions are right; it's time to create the spiritual spring.
After choosing a spot, Shi Yu went over and sat down cross-legged.
Close your eyes and regulate your breathing.
Mobilizing all its supernatural abilities, countless pale blue wisps rose from Shi Yu's body, dancing gracefully before converging into a colorful torrent that plunged headlong into the soil.
The halo flickered, appearing and disappearing...
Time slipped away second by second.
Shi Yu pursed her lips, and fine beads of sweat slowly seeped from her smooth forehead.
The colorful torrents became clearer and clearer, finally taking shape and materializing into a spiritual spring.
"Phew!" Shi Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
After opening her eyes, she got up and went over to check.
Glug glug!
A clear stream, steaming hot, gushed forth from the spring, pure and without a trace of impurity.
I took a sip and tasted it.
It's incredibly sweet and refreshing, and makes you feel comfortable all over after eating it.
"Hmm!" Shi Yu nodded in satisfaction.
This sacred spring not only quenches thirst but also beautifies the skin and strengthens the body.
It's truly an excellent product.
only……
The water vat, which had been nearly empty, suddenly overflowed with water, and it was such delicious spring water! This was bound to frighten Mother, and she wouldn't know how to explain it!
Lost in thought, I suddenly heard voices outside.
It seems someone is coming.
With a thought, Shi Yu left the space.
"Mr. Yu?" Shi Yu was taken aback when she saw Mr. Yu suddenly arrive.
"Hmm!" Mr. Yu nodded. "I'm just dropping by. You won't be unwelcome, will you?"
Shi Yu laughed, "How could that be? Mr. Yu, you are a distinguished guest, please come inside."
The mother and daughter politely welcomed Mr. Yu inside.
As he walked inside, Mr. Yu couldn't help but glance at Huang Ying a few times.
The woman had regular features and fair skin; her appearance and demeanor were quite different from those of the village women in the countryside.
Sitting in his chair, Mr. Yu looked at Shi Yu encouragingly, “I think there must have been a misunderstanding about what happened in Danshui this morning. After everyone has calmed down, why don’t you go and explain things clearly?”
"Because even women have the right to protect themselves and fight for justice."
Shi Yu was stunned for a moment.
He was explaining the misunderstanding, not admitting his mistake.
"You believe me?" Shi Yu couldn't help but ask.
Mr. Yu nodded.
He couldn't explain the specific reasons, but he trusted his judgment and believed he would never misjudge someone.
Shi Yu felt a warmth in her heart, but at the same time, her thoughts stirred slightly.
Mr. Yu works for the county's Civil Affairs Bureau and advocates for women's independence and self-reliance, urging them to fight for their own rights.
She wanted to bring up the matter of her mother and Shi Daqiang's divorce.
But……
This is their second meeting. Would it be too abrupt to bring it up suddenly?
If you try to be clever and end up making things worse, it will only make things worse.
However, before Shi Yu could think for long, her thoughts were interrupted by a sharp scream.
"Huang Ying, Shi Yu, you two scoundrels, get out here right now!"
