Chapter 204: Something Happened to Shen Zhu

Chapter 204 Something Happened to Shen Zhu

Su Zhi suggested a way to make money, which really made Shen Zian and the others look forward to the future. They had a happy meal.

In the afternoon, some women including Sister Shugen came to see Liu Si Niang. Su Zhi chatted with them for a while and then went back.

The next day is the Rain-Worshipping Festival.

As soon as the sun rose, Shen Zian and Su Zhi got up. One of them made breakfast while the other went to feed the cows and chickens. When breakfast was ready, the children also got up and put on their clothes.

Su Zhi poured warm water for them, asked them to wash their faces and hands, and then combed their hair. Yueyue had her hair combed into two buns, while Xiaori and Xing'er had their hair combed into small sky-high buns.

Although Bailang and Dahei's family like to eat cooked food, Xiaohei and Xiaobai have grown up recently, so Bailang started taking them into the mountains to hunt for food, so they usually only eat cooked food at night. Su Zhi doesn't have to cook breakfast and lunch for them, but sometimes she will give them some dried meat as snacks.

Xiao Hei had heard them getting up a long time ago, and also ran to the table, looking up at them. Su Zhi gave him a piece of dried meat, and he ate it happily. In the end, he was pulled away by Xiao Bai. Xiao Bai, like the white wolf, had great self-control, and it was conceivable that he would become a majestic holy beast in the future. As for Xiao Hei, he was still young, and it was hard to tell whether he would be as big as Da Hei. If that were the case, it would be really pitiful for him to be the son of a holy beast.

Each family member drank a bowl of porridge, ate a cake and pickles, and had an omelette. Although it was simple, they were very satisfied. Then Su Zhi wiped the hands of the three children and took them out in a bullock cart.

After picking up Li Shi and Liu Si Niang, they went to see the village head. When they arrived at the door of Zhao's house, they saw the carriage. Zhang Qing Niang was helping old lady Li get on the carriage. She glanced at them and smiled. Then they got on the carriage. Zhao Xiaohua pouted at first, then smiled and got on the carriage with her head raised, as if she was sitting in a carriage, which was more advanced than sitting in an ox cart. She acted like a rich lady, but it was a pity. When she got on the carriage, she almost fell off, which made her look a little bit crooked. She turned her head and glared, then quickly got in.

Zhao Daliang looked at Liu Si Niang with mixed feelings. This woman used to be his wife, but now she belongs to someone else. She looked very healthy, wearing a light blue dress with white flowers, which was the best dress she had ever worn. She actually looked good.

Liu Si Niang turned her face away, while Li Shi looked at Zhao Daliang, who bowed and got on the carriage. He whipped the whip and drove away quickly.

Su Zhi looked at this scene and thought that she had only been in this world for less than a year, but it seemed that a lot of things had happened. The biggest and best change was that both she and Liu Si Niang had survived their previous hard days.

Shen Zian met the head of the village, said something, and then left. When he arrived at the Shen family, he saw that only the first and second wives were left. Everyone else had already left. He heard that a carriage was coming to pick them up. It seemed that Lady Yu was really noble.

Shen Zifu, Shen Zigui and other adults didn't want to go to the town, saying that the Rain Goddess would come to the village, so they could just go to the entrance of the village to see it, so they wouldn't have to walk. As for the children, Dalang and Erlang ran out by themselves. They were used to running, and the road to the town was just a play for them. Chunlan and other girls also wanted to go, but the adults thought it was too chaotic and didn't let them go. They only said that after they got to the entrance of the village, they could take them to the foot of Daqing Mountain to watch the worship. They could only listen and enviously watched Shen Zian's ox cart go away.

Along the way, I saw many more people than usual, and everyone had a happy face. It was almost the same as Chinese New Year, but the faces of the older people looked a little serious.

"It hasn't rained since the beginning of spring this year. The farmers are all afraid of this. I hope that after we pray to the Rain Goddess, she will bring us a good rain."

Li Shi said that although his family did not have much land, they were still concerned about the weather. After all, no one wanted to encounter a drought year.

"So we should plant more sweet potatoes and potatoes this year, as these don't require much water."

Su Zhi said that she was actually worried about drought. In ancient times, people feared floods and droughts the most. If they encountered droughts, the crops would be bad and farmers would be in trouble. Prices would go up and life would be hard. She didn't want to encounter such a thing as soon as she arrived here. Although she had the spiritual spring and was not afraid of having nothing to eat or starving to death, she didn't want to see others having a hard time. It would be too eye-catching for her to live a good life alone, and she would feel uncomfortable.

Several people nodded and talked about praying for rain, and then they arrived at the town.

As soon as I entered the town, I met Shen Ziping and Sun Shi. Sanlang and Silang followed them. Behind them, little Chunhua was holding Wulang. I really wondered how she could hold Wulang with her small stature. But she still held him. Wulang was twisting and turning in her arms, making it even more difficult for her to hold him. Her forehead was covered with sweat.

"Oh, Fourth Brother, Fourth Sister-in-law, you are here! What a coincidence that we meet here, let's go together. I also want to see how our little boys and girls are dressed, so that I can open my eyes and share in the blessing. Of course, the most important thing is our Wu Lang, he needs this blessing the most. Since you don't want him to be a virgin, then take him with you for a while! It can be regarded as your uncle and aunt's care."

She said this as if they owed them something by not letting Wu Lang remain a virgin. Shen Zian ignored her at the time and drove away, but was stopped by Shen Ziping.

"Fourth brother, please don't be like this. Your third sister-in-law didn't say anything. She is just too worried about Wu Lang. Please have some sympathy for her as a mother. Please be kind and consider it as a request from your third brother."

"Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law, the three children in your family are all virgins, which is a great merit. It is such a blessing for you. Why don't you help us? Not to mention that virgins are for the benefit of us common people, we are your brothers and sisters-in-law, you should be soft-hearted. Don't be too cruel, or you are not worthy of being the parents of virgins."

Sun said this so loudly that people passing by looked over. Many people even stopped and pointed at the three children and started talking. These boys and girls were very eye-catching today.

Shen Zian frowned and said, "If you want to enter Tianshengyuan, just say you are Lady Yu's brother and sister-in-law, and you will be able to enter naturally. You won't need us."

As he spoke, Shen Zian looked at the man who was gently pinching Shen Ziping's arm with his hand, then he pulled his hand away, then hit the ox's back with the whip, and the ox cart moved away.

Shen Ziping wanted to stop, but was frightened by Shen Zian's look. He knew that it was normal for his brother not to get angry, but if he got unhappy, he would be very vicious. He could only stop, thinking that if he wanted to enter Tianshengyuan, he could say Shen Zhu's name, because she was Lady Rain.

Sun watched the ox cart go away, stamped her feet in anger, wanted to vent her anger, but had no place to vent it. Finally, she pinched Chunhua and said, "You stupid girl, you didn't even know to put your brother on the cart, and they threw him off? You are so stupid!"

Chunhua gritted her teeth in pain, tears welling up in her eyes, but she dared not cry. She almost dropped Wulang just now, and Wulang was so scared that he strangled her neck tightly, almost strangling her to death. When Sun saw this, she scolded her for almost dropping Wulang and pinched her.

Sanlang said impatiently, "Mom, let's go and find my aunt. Do you still want to enter Tianshengyuan? If you can't get in, we can't do anything. Wulang wants to be a virgin, but that's just a dream."

"Let's go, let's go, listen to me, everyone. After you go in, whoever has the opportunity can do it. Don't be timid. Whoever succeeds, I will make a new dress for him."

Several people nodded, and Sun was satisfied. She took her family and hurried to Tianshengyuan.

The alley outside Tiansheng Courtyard had been cleared, and people were guarding the entrance of the alley. Only those who were related to the Baiyu Festival could enter, and no one else was allowed in. The people from the third room also knew this, and only when they saw Shen Zian did they want to go in together, but unfortunately they were rejected. However, there was still Shen Zhu, and they still had hope.

The name of Shen Zhu, Rain Queen, didn't work very well, but Qian Guang happened to come over with his cousin, and Shen Ziju was also sitting in the car. When he saw them, he let them in.

Liang Fu came here because Qian Guang said he would bring her here to see the excitement, saying that behind Tiansheng Courtyard would be the place where Lady Yu and the boys and girls would dress up and change clothes, so she could see them at first sight. She was not curious about these, but when she thought of Su Zhi and Shen Zi'an's family being there, she wanted to come and take a look.

As soon as they got off the carriage, they saw two people running out of the door. One of them saw Qian Guang and immediately ran over with a worried look on his face. Qian Guang hurriedly asked him what was wrong.

"Master, something happened. Lady Rain, no, something happened to the girl who played Lady Rain. Her whole body was itchy, and there were many red rashes on her face! It was scary to look at!"

"What? How could this happen? Go and get a doctor!"

Qian Guang was anxious when he heard this. This Rain Worship Festival is very important, and the Rain Goddess is the key. It hasn't even started yet, but the Rain Goddess has fallen ill. If people know about this, they will think that a disaster is going to happen on this day! I remember that one year the Rain Goddess accidentally fell off the car, and as a result, there were many heavy rains that year, and the farmers suffered heavy losses. Others believed that if the Rain Goddess had a mishap, it would affect the weather for the whole year!

So when Qian Guang heard that Empress Yu had rashes all over her body, he became anxious.

Shen Ziju was also anxious, because that was his sister. He hurried to the courtyard, clenching his fists tightly, thinking that someone must have harmed Shen Zhu. Who was going against their Shen family? If he knew, he would not let them go!
