According to the investigation by the people below, this person has never left the capital. How could a young lady from a prominent family understand these principles?
Moreover, she lived in the countryside when she was a child...
wrong!
Could it be that you learned it during your time in the countryside?
But who taught her that?
Unable to understand, Wuming stopped thinking about it.
Wuming sighed and said, "Alas, what are we going to do for dinner? We don't even have a sip of water to drink."
“I’d like to go outside and take a look. Yunying, you stay inside with Madam and take good care of her,” Wuming added casually.
Yun Qingluo nodded. "Okay. Go to the village and borrow a small basin, then go outside and collect a basin of rainwater. I'll take a look and then we'll decide."
You don't need to go anywhere else. When we came here, there wasn't a blade of grass growing around us, and you couldn't find any water source for a while.”
Yunying chimed in, "Yes, you should listen to Madam and go find a container to collect the rainwater to see if it's edible."
What if the villagers are simply foolish and think that rainwater is inedible, so they haven't touched it?
Besides, even if there are problems, isn't Madam here? Perhaps she has a solution.
Wuming didn't refute what the two said, but simply nodded in response and turned to leave.
He took a few steps forward, then turned back, and nodded in satisfaction when he saw the fire inside the house.
He then gave Qiushui and Qiuyue a few more instructions.
Tell them to make the bed quickly, as it's uncomfortable for the lady to stand like this.
Besides, it's not comfortable to sit up with a big belly, so it's more comfortable to just lie in bed.
Then he asked Yunying to give the lady a massage.
Yunying interrupted Wuming, somewhat puzzled, her tone unfriendly, "Who exactly are you? Why are you so concerned about our lady? Could it be? Could it be that you like our lady?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo stiffened slightly, but quickly returned to normal.
She had long realized that this nameless man had no improper thoughts about her, let alone romantic feelings for her.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have kept Wuming by her side long ago.
After all, if her jealous husband found out, who knows how he would torment her?
Upon hearing Yunying's words, Wuming's expression changed slightly, and he immediately spoke:
"Don't talk nonsense. What nonsense are you spouting? How could I possibly have those kinds of thoughts about her? Please don't say such things again."
Sin, sin, everything is sin.
How did this person figure out that he had feelings for this woman?
Even if he had designs on a pig, he wouldn't dare to have designs on this person.
Yun Qingluo heard Wuming's rebuttal and felt a slight doubt in her heart.
But then he seemed to remember something, and with a slight smile, he remained silent.
Yunying wanted to say something more, but Wuming ran out immediately after speaking, as if something was chasing him.
Yunying helped Yun Qingluo walk towards the bed, her tone puzzled, "If he didn't have it, he didn't have it. Why did he run so fast? I'm not going to eat him."
The nameless man fetched the water and returned quickly.
The water was brought to Yun Qingluo, who leaned against the headboard and examined it carefully.
Before she could speak, she heard Xiao Yi in her mind exclaim, "My God, how can there be acid rain in a place like this? Is acid rain supposed to fall in places like this? This terrain is really strange."
Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow. "Xiao Yi, you actually know about acid rain?"
That's really strange.
Isn't primary school part of the medical system?
How can you be so familiar with these astronomical, geographical, and climatic changes?
Xiao Yi said arrogantly, "Hmph, don't look down on people, ptooey, no, don't look down on the system. This system knows everything from astronomy to geography. What is there that I don't know? Heh."
Yun Qinglu frowned, but didn't say anything. Instead, she continued to look at the basin of acid rain.
Seeing that Yun Qingluo hadn't spoken for a long time, and noticing her furrowed brows, Wuming was secretly alarmed.
It seems this water really can't be consumed.
But he still wouldn't give up, asking, "Madam, could there really be something wrong with this water?"
Yun Qingluo nodded and said calmly, "Normally, the water we drink is harmless to our bodies. Some rainwater can even be collected directly into buckets and used as drinking water. However, this rainwater contains an acidic substance that can harm our bodies, and prolonged consumption can even lead to poisoning and death."
"I guess this is what the village chief meant when he said the villagers died from lack of water. When you went to borrow a basin, did the villagers say anything to you?"
After a moment's thought, Wuming immediately said, "Yes, there really is. An old lady told me never to collect rainwater at the village entrance, because drinking that water will poison you."
At first I didn't believe them, thinking they were lying, but now, after hearing what Madam said, it seems it's all true.
The nameless man asked, puzzled, "But we often encounter rainy days in the capital, and even in other places. We drink the rainwater, and we're fine. Why does this place experience this kind of rain?"
When Yun Qingluo heard the word "we" from Wuming's mouth, her hand paused slightly.
It then returned to normal without anyone noticing.
Yun Qingluo pondered to herself, it seemed he had accomplices.
Yun Qinglu frowned slightly. "I can't figure this out either. But this water is definitely not safe to drink. Let's think of another way."
It's all her fault for not studying geography well back then.
She clearly remembered that her high school textbook explained the phenomenon of acid rain.
But she also clearly remembers that she didn't deliberately learn this knowledge, and she was too lazy to even glance at it.
Moreover, she said dismissively at the time, "I'll never encounter acid rain in my life, so why bother learning about it?"
Yun Qingluo's lips twitched. She wanted to travel back to her high school in the modern era and slap herself.
Well, now that acid rain has actually hit, she doesn't even know how to prevent it.
Fortunately, there was some dry food and water on the carriage.
Yunying went out for a while, and when she came back, she was carrying a water bag.
Yunying poured a small bamboo cup and handed it to Yun Qingluo, who shook her head slightly to indicate that she would not drink it.
Yunying frowned deeply. She said with concern, "Madam, you haven't had any water all day. Even if you really don't want to drink, the baby in your belly needs to drink too."
Yun Qingluo laughed and said, "I really don't want to drink. Look, my lips aren't dry. I'm really not thirsty. You guys drink. I've been sleeping in the carriage all day long. How could I be that thirsty?"
What Yun Qingluo didn't say was that her system actually contained several large tanks of water.
She often secretly drank water in the carriage; it was carefully selected drinking water from the Prince's mansion, several grades higher than the water in the kettle.
Moreover, they hadn't found much water along the way.
She saves every drop of water by drinking three sips. Since she can't reveal the secret to the public, she shouldn't burden them.
