Chapter 302 This blessing is for you, do you want it?

"Dad, I have to go take a look at the things at the bottom of the river. We can't let the people of Da Xia die in vain." She looked at Lu Yanshi seriously.

The eldest sister of the emperor said that since they enjoyed the offerings from the people, they should do practical things for the people.

Since she passed by here and discovered this problem, she had a way to solve it, so she naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.

Lu Yanshi felt very distressed when he saw her sensible appearance.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaojiu."

"If I could have a big golden lock, I wouldn't have to work so hard." Lu Li glanced at him sideways and hinted wildly.

Lu Yanshi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "When we get back, I promise to give you a super big gold lock."

"Second sister will give you one too." Lu Qi also laughed.

"Hey, thank you, Daddy, thank you, Second Sister."

Thinking of the super big gold lock, Lu Li suddenly became motivated.

The father, his two daughters, poured all the dishes into the corner.

Not long after, He Guihua came and knocked on the door.

"Have the distinguished guests finished their meal?"

"Well, I'm done eating. You can take it away." Lu Yanshi replied calmly.

He Guihua pushed the door open and saw the cleanly eaten plates, and she visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are these dishes to your liking?" she asked with a smile.

"It's okay, but we are sleepy, you guys can leave." Lu Yanshi yawned.

Lu Qi stood up and picked up Lu Li.

"Dad, I'm going to take my sister to rest next door first."

She deliberately spoke very loudly so that He Guihua would know that Ninth Sister would sleep with her tonight.

"Second sister, I'm sleepy. I want to sleep." Lu Li cooperated and yawned long.

"Go ahead."

The father and his two daughters acted together and successfully deceived He Guihua.

About half an hour passed.

The sound of even breathing could be heard in their room.

"Are you sure they are all asleep?" The village chief was a little worried.

"Those drugs can make wild boars dizzy, let alone a few people." He Guihua answered confidently.

"What if they can't find the child tomorrow and cause trouble?" The village chief was still worried.

"Just say that the child has a connection with Lord River God and was taken away by Lord River God." He Guihua had already thought of an excuse.

"Anyway, we can hide Huihui by then, and our child will be gone, so they can't blame us."

When the village chief heard what his wife said, his brows furrowed.

"Don't tell me that you regret it. Huihui is Hui'er's only blood. If Hui'er is gone, I will protect Huihui's life even if I die." He Guihua was afraid that he would regret it, so she reminded him while wiping her tears.

[You don't want your child to die, so other people's children deserve to die. 】

Lu Li couldn't help but complain in her heart.

"Forget it, let's just take the gamble this time. If God wants to punish someone, then punish an old man like me." The village chief finally made up his mind.

Let Lu Li replace granddaughter He Huihui to offer sacrifices to the river god.

"Mom and Dad, you can't do this." Jiang, the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief, who had been eavesdropping, heard this and rushed out unable to bear it any longer.

"What are you doing here?" The old couple was shocked.

"These people seem to be either rich or noble, and we cannot afford to offend them. If we kill their children, my whole family will suffer." Jiang was very anxious.

She still has three sons, and she can't let her parents-in-law kill them.

"How will they know if you don't tell anyone?" He Guihua raised her hand and slapped her.

"If this gets out, I'll have the boss divorce you."

Jiang felt extremely aggrieved.

She was also doing this for the good of the whole family, so it seemed that those distinguished guests could not be offended.

"It's up to you. I want to take Song'er and the others back to my mother's home."

She covered her face and ran away crying.

Her husband took her niece He Huihui and hid away. She was isolated and helpless, and the only thing she could think of was returning to her parents' home.

"Well, let's take action at dawn." The village chief was confused.

"Yeah." He Guihua took a deep breath and nodded.

She must save Huihui's life.

As dawn approached, He Guihua knocked on Lu Qi's door.

"Girls? Girls? Are you awake? Do you want to have breakfast?" she asked deliberately.

The moment she knocked on the door, Lu Qi woke up.

But she thought that she was probably in a dazed state, so she kept her mouth shut.

She gently pushed Lu Li who was still sleeping soundly, fearing that she would get exposed.

"Xiaojiu, be careful."

Lu Li, who was having a sweet dream, suddenly woke up. When she heard the door open, she quickly closed her eyes again.

[Luckily, the second sister reminded me, otherwise I would have been exposed. ]

Lu Li adjusted her breathing and closed her eyes silently.

He Guihua walked to the bed and picked up Lu Li.

"Don't blame me. You are so cute. I'm sure Lord River God will love you well." She murmured to herself and carried Lu Li out of the room.

[Humph, you bad grandma, it's no use for you to praise me, I still hate you. 】

[When I see that damn river god, I will definitely give him a good beating.]

Lu Li grumbled in her heart with dissatisfaction.

He Guihua carried Lu Li to her room and changed her into red clothes for sacrifice.

He then found some makeup powder and painted her face pale, then put two round dots of rouge on her face, and finally painted her lips bright red before he stopped with satisfaction.

Children should be dressed up when offering thanks to the river god.

With this smear on it, the child, with his eyes closed, couldn't tell whether it was his Huihui or not.

The auspicious time for offering sacrifices to the river god was approaching, and He Guihua set out with Lu Li in her arms, feeling satisfied.

Chuyi was ordered to protect the Ninth Princess.

When he saw Lu Li being carried out by He Guihua, he was silent for a moment.

He almost didn't recognize that it was his lively and lovely Ninth Princess.

He took a deep breath and followed quietly.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw He Guihua carrying the Ninth Princess to the river.

Okay, Heli is Princess Ninth’s world, he doesn’t have to worry.

A bamboo raft had already been placed by the river.

It was piled with fruits, vegetables, chicken, duck and fish.

The villagers of Hejia Village gathered together early.

Seeing the village chief and He Guihua coming over with the child, everyone spontaneously made way for them.

The other boy who was drawn was He Daniu's son He Shuan.

He put his son on the boat with great sadness.

"Shuanzi, your father is useless and can't protect you. Just go and live in peace. Find a good family in your next life."

He Daniu wiped his tears and looked at his son reluctantly.

"They are going to serve Lord River God. They will enjoy a good life in the future. Don't be sad." The village chief comforted him and gave his wife a look, asking her to put Lu Li on as well.

He Guihua put Lu Li on the sacrificial boat, she wiped her tears and burst into tears.

"Huihui, don't blame grandma. You are following the river god to enjoy the good life. You must be obedient."

Lu Li: ...

This blessing is given to you, do you want it?

The onlookers all comforted He Guihua.

At this moment, an old Taoist in black came.

"Is everything ready?"

"Master Yang, don't worry, everything will be safe." The village chief replied with some guilt.

"Yes." The old Taoist in black started the ritual and, according to the timing, ordered people to push the bamboo raft away from the river.

[Hey, there are still melons? ]

After the Taoist priest in black appeared, new melons popped up in the melon-eating system, and Lu Li immediately clicked on them to read.
