On this day, the people of Pinghe City celebrated as if it were New Year's Day. Every household, young and old, big and small, as long as they could walk, went out.
All the containers that could hold water at home were carried out to fetch water.
Many men on the road were carrying a large black pot on their heads.
Everything that can hold water at home has been used up, but we still have a big pot.
Who knows when the next rain will be? The rain hasn't reached their city yet, so of course they'll take as much as they can.
Having no water is worse than being hungry...
......
"Oh my, it's raining so hard in Pingliang City."
Chang Sun Dongcai was waving a fan, looking at the rain coming from Pingliang City, with a smile on his face.
"Yeah, it just so happens that those corn seeds have been planted for several days, and it's time to water them."
Old Madam Shen stood at the door of the meeting hall, looking at the drizzling rain, feeling very happy.
It seems that Ranran's prayer for rain was very successful this time, and the people of Pingliang City can also be happy.
"Yes, I went to check it out this morning, and the corns have already sprouted, and they're growing pretty fast."
Chang Sundongcai slowly walked to the side of Old Madam Shen and looked in the direction of the livestock.
"Lin Changshou, General Long's subordinate, is very good. He goes to check on the livestock as soon as it rains."
Old Madam Shen smiled gently and moved her gaze to the livestock area.
Looking at Lin Changshou driving the livestock into the pen, his eyes were full of admiration.
"Indeed, Ranran has always had good vision. She feels more at ease leaving these livestock to Lin Changshou."
"By the way, how's the progress of the road construction?"
When Old Madam Shen recalled that when Ranran left, what she was most concerned about was building the road.
"The soldiers were very quick. They had already dug away all the topsoil and reached the solid soil layer."
When it comes to road construction, Chang Sun Dongcai frowned.
"I just don't know if this rain will make the road soft again. I have to wait until the rain stops to check."
After removing the topsoil, we were waiting to lay the gravel, but it suddenly rained, which delayed the progress.
It can't be considered a delay, after all, the gravel hasn't been found yet.
Madam Shen nodded and said, "It's really fast. Once the rain stops, we can dig the ditches on both sides of the road."
"Yes, we'll have people digging the ditch tomorrow. It looks like there's going to be a lot of rain in the future, so we need to dig it deeper and wider."
Chang Sun Dongcai nodded in agreement.
.......
"Dad, let's go hide in the cave?"
Xiao Yunchao was holding a small umbrella, holding General Xiao in his arms, with a helpless look on his face.
Seeing the furniture getting wet in the rain again, he felt so distressed.
Fortunately, this time he didn't put the things near the spring pool, so they were not washed into the spring pool.
The rain this time was not heavy, just a drizzle.
However, the umbrellas in their hands are really small, and it is difficult for one person to hold them.
Now only the area below his buttocks was dry; his entire back and arms were wet.
Oh, and his smart and wise head didn't get wet either.
Xiao Yunchao looked down at his father in his arms and sighed helplessly.
General Xiao nestled tightly in Xiao Yunchao's arms, and the rain didn't get him wet at all.
Listening to the sound of the drizzle, he half closed his eyes and muttered,
"I'm not going there. This place is fine."
Damn kid, he still wants to trick him into going to the cave. This time he didn’t drink any alcohol, so he doesn’t want to go to the cave.
There is a female ghost in the cave, and he would rather die than go there.
"father!!!"
Xiao Yunchao hugged General Xiao tightly, and the umbrella tilted a little closer to him.
"Can you get a bigger umbrella? I'm almost freezing to death!"
Xiao Yunchao pursed his frozen purple lips, wanting to cry but unable to.
The days were getting colder, and it was even colder by the spring pools deep in the mountains.
If he had known this earlier, he might as well not be sober. When he was stupid, he didn't seem to feel cold.
Look at his father, he sleeps with his legs spread out at night, kicking off the quilt, not feeling cold at all.
But he felt a chill on his forehead even when wrapped in a quilt at night.
Xiao Yunchao looked back at the wet quilt and felt extremely sad.
How can he survive such a cold night?
"Hmm~~" General Xiao pouted and shook his head, "There is no big umbrella."
He is stupid. With an umbrella, how can this guy hug him?
It was going to be dark soon, and he didn't want to leave the dead boy's arms. He was not afraid of him because he was lying in his arms.
“Ah~~~”
General Xiao opened his mouth and yawned, muttering, "I'm sleepy, don't bother me."
"............" Xiao Yunchao pulled the corner of his lips helplessly.
Looking at his father who fell asleep in his arms in seconds, at this moment, he wanted to throw him out.
Unfortunately, he only dared to think about it but not to actually do it.
He really couldn't beat his own father. After being beaten up, he would have to hug his father and squat in the rain.
He is not the kind of person who would refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit.
Tolerate!
He is a tolerant person!
Xiao Yunchao looked at the sky which was getting darker and darker with tears in his eyes, and his butt was numb from sitting.
.......
"Master Wu Ma, he won't suddenly wake up, will he?"
The female official with the gap in her teeth was two meters away from the crazy beggar, looking at the witch and horse fortune teller with a worried look on her face.
It was such bad luck that the empress actually sent her to Xinyue City with Wu Ma Chaofu.
Let her protect Wu Ma Chaofu.
With her skills, how can she compare to Anwu, Anliu, Anqi?
She suspected that the empress was tired of her and was looking for a reason to send her away.
But, can she be sent to do something else?
Following the crazy beggar, she was extremely panicked, always feeling that the crazy beggar would kill her at any time.
