Chapter 467 Your uncle is a good person
"Mom, give all of these to Uncle. He'll definitely need them!" Little Su Bao said instinctively.
Ms. Qian was slightly taken aback, but a sense of worry began to creep into her heart.
Could it be that Tang Yu needs money for something else on this trip?
But the older brother's hands are a bit too big!
Madam Qian sighed and took another two hundred taels of silver from the public funds.
With the addition of the money for the third son's wedding, the family's money is basically running out.
Because of the heavy sweating, their red hibiscus can no longer be sold. In fact, there are still quite a few of those trap insects in the village today.
However, for many reasons, people no longer dare to sell in the county town.
Fortunately, life in the village is better now, and everyone is in no hurry.
"Your uncle is a good person, he's just a bit stubborn!"
Ms. Qian said a few words and then glanced at Xiao Su Bao.
Little Su Bao nodded in agreement, because the little dumpling also thought her uncle was a good person.
After a sleepless night, Xiao Su Bao and the others got up very early the next morning.
Today is the bride's first day at home, so everyone has to be there.
Everyone, dressed in their new clothes, got busy at home early in the morning.
Qi Meng was a little tired at the moment.
Thinking about last night, her cheeks flushed instantly, and she felt a mix of emotions.
She used to be curious about what they meant by "fish and water harmony," but now that she's married herself, she finally understands...
The taste...
Never mind, just thinking about it makes me blush.
"Wife..." Just then, a hand suddenly appeared around her waist.
Qi Meng's body stiffened, as if she had been electrocuted.
"It's still daytime, and we still have to go pay our respects to Mother today!"
Qi Meng quickly grabbed the mischievous hand and glared at Tang Shan with annoyance.
The boy looked very burly, and he looked even more burly after taking off his clothes.
As if remembering something, Qi Meng's cheeks flushed slightly.
He really pushed himself too hard last night.
"Honey, I just wanted to rub it for you!"
Tang Shan had an honest and simple face, but there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Qi Meng thought of something and couldn't help but poke him.
"No wonder my little sister said that only marriage can cure illness. With you doing this, I'm sweating every day. Even if I have an illness, the heat will make it go away!" Qi Meng said with a smile.
Tang Shan's body was like a furnace; every time you got close to her, it made you feel warm all over.
Especially after that last night...
Her lower abdomen was burning hot, and her limbs felt as if they were being roasted by fire.
"Ahem, honey, don't you like it?" Tang Shan leaned over and kissed his wife's fair back.
Qi Meng's body stiffened; she felt she was about to lose control...
The boy had just eaten meat, and now he couldn't resist any longer.
Fortunately, although the Qian family had changed into new clothes, everyone continued with their usual tasks.
Sun Cuihua cooked, Qian Shi did the cooking, and Wang Xiuer swept the yard.
Little Su Bao and the Tang family's other children took turns chopping firewood.
Tang Bugui isn't home right now; he's been going to see Yang Nuannuan these past few days whenever he has free time.
Ling Buqi, on the other hand, went to find the young lady from the Su family.
Wang Xiuer's eyes were filled with a mischievous smile, and she kept glancing at the third brother's yard behind her.
The third child is truly blessed.
This Miss Qi looks quite nice!
"Husband, tell me, who's more capable, the third brother or you?"
Tang Qi was drying some bamboo shoots, wild mushrooms, and wood ear fungus when he heard his wife whispering something in his ear, and his cheeks flushed red.
I glanced around and thankfully there was no one else in the yard.
He covered his wife's mouth, unable to help but say, "Is this something you can say here?"
"Besides, don't you know how capable your man is?" After saying that, Tang Qi glanced at his wife's protruding belly, which did look quite large.
My wife is now over six months pregnant, and her belly looks like she's about to give birth.
Wang Xiuer gripped the broom, her eyes sparkling with excitement. To be honest, she was quite satisfied with this aspect of her husband.
Even now that she's pregnant, she can't fully enjoy herself every time!
While thinking about this, Wang Xiuer suddenly felt a pain in her stomach; that little brat had kicked her.
Wang Xiuer slapped him back in an annoyed manner.
"You better behave and stop kicking me! If you kick me again, I'll spank you when you get out!"
Tang Qi, standing to the side, had a deep smile in his eyes.
Whether it's a son or a daughter, he doesn't want any more children. Two children from his wife are enough!
Just as they were talking, Qi Meng finally got up.
She hadn't expected this man to be so troublesome, and she was immediately furious.
"If I get there late, everyone will laugh at me!" Qi Meng quickly put on her clothes.
Whether it was her imagination or not, she felt much better and more relaxed today.
She even felt that her internal strength had become much more profound.
Tang Shan also felt that she was exceptionally sharp-witted and healthy today.
When Tang Sanbao saw the two of them leave, he quickly ran over to tell everyone.
Only then did the Qian family return to the main room.
Once they were all seated, the newlyweds came over.
When Madam Qian saw her new daughter-in-law, her eyes were filled with a deep smile.
"Third sister-in-law is so beautiful, she looks even prettier today than yesterday!" Wang Xiuer looked at Qi Meng with sparkling eyes.
Qi Meng blushed, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Thank you for the compliment, Second Sister-in-law!" Qi Meng said, blushing, but still very seriously.
"Mother, please have some tea." Qi Meng and Tang Shan knelt before Madam Qian and offered her tea.
"Yes, good child!" Madam Qian smiled and took out a red envelope from her bosom and handed it to Qi Meng.
After the two of them finished serving tea, the younger generation came over to serve tea to Qi Meng.
The little radish heads looked very cute, and Qi Meng liked them very much.
Each of Xiao Su Bao and the others received a small red envelope containing a small packet of golden melon seeds, which were worth much more than silver.
Just as the family was talking, a lot of people arrived at the village entrance.
Most of these people are villagers who have come to fetch water.
Others were officers, soldiers, and yamen runners arranged by Fulin.
This water comes from the original fish ponds.
It's not much, but it's better than nothing.
As for the hot springs, they didn't tell anyone.
Du Juan was unaware of this at the time.
As more and more people gathered, the villagers of Tangjia Village were not in a good mood.
After all, this water is very important to them.
But no one could say anything, after all, their village was a place even the emperor had visited!
After seeing off the last of the people who came to fetch water, everyone was exhausted.
Little Su Bao followed Qian Shi out to deliver some food to everyone.
Fulin had money, and he bought food for his brothers.
Meanwhile, in An County, the Wu family was getting anxious!
"What do we do now? Our pigs have no water and they're all dying!"
These people were all members of the Wu family who had previously acquired a large number of pigs.
The Wu family raised those pigs on a farm.
But no one expected such a severe drought this year. Forget about water, even the pig feed they're giving the pigs has dried up.
If this continues, not only will the pigs not survive, but even these people won't be able to live.
Thinking about this, these people became increasingly agitated.
Wu Shan's face was gloomy. In the past few months, he had been fighting with Fu Lin, and he had suffered heavy losses on both sides.
But now he has no good solutions!
Unless we make peace!
However, it's not that he hasn't tried!
Thinking of something, Wu Shan took a deep breath: "I understand, I'll figure something out!"
Those people glanced at Wu Shan, but ultimately said nothing more.
At this point, everyone is truly at their wits' end.
Wu Shan stood up and glanced at his son, who stood to the side, dumbfounded.
Wu Youcai seemed to sense his father's gaze and quickly stood up.
Wu Youcai is much thinner than before, and his eyes have lost some of their arrogance.
Wu Shan looked at him and said, "I'll give you a chance. Go to Tangjia Village, find Tang Si, and try to get him to forgive you!"
Wu Youcai's eyes widened immediately, wondering if he had misheard!
His father actually wanted him to go find Tang Si...
Why should I?!
He almost blurted out those words, but looking at his father's cold eyes, Wu Youcai didn't dare say another word.
His father has been acting like a madman lately, and he doesn't dare to mess with him.
"Yes!" Wu Youcai said through gritted teeth.
Seeing his son's expression, Wu Shan finally retracted his expression.
He also needs to prepare some things!
Fulin was unyielding and now he was subtly gaining the upper hand.
If things continue like this, both he and Fulin will only suffer losses.
Moreover, with the constant natural disasters this year, he simply couldn't believe that Fulin didn't want the two of them to shake hands and make peace.
Wu Shan has always been a man who can bend and stretch.
He rubbed his temples and walked towards his courtyard.
A voluptuous woman with a curvaceous figure stepped forward.
"Master is back!"
She was Wu Shan's mistress, but now she is Wu Shan's concubine.
Wu Shan let the woman walk up to him and help him take off his outer robe.
"By the way, you said before that you knew people from Tangjia Village?" Wu Shan looked at his concubine and said in a nonchalant tone.
"Yes, one of my cousins married someone from Tangjia Village, and I heard she's from the village chief's family!"
The woman poured Wu Shan a cup of tea, her eyes filled with a strange look.
Her cousin was said to be cursed with bad luck in marriage; if it weren't for good fortune, she would never have been able to get married, and her parents even ran away...
"The village chief's family..." Wu Shan let the woman massage his shoulders, but he was thinking about something in his mind.
The cousin mentioned by Wang should be Tang Qi, the second son of the Tang family, whose wife's surname is Wang.
Wu Shan thought of something and said to the woman beside him, "Here's what we'll do. In the next few days, try to go to Tangjia Village and sound them out."
Wang paused, realizing that she and her cousin had a terrible relationship; back then, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were practically inseparable.
and……
She even stole Wang Xiuer's man...
Wang Shi naturally couldn't say these things in front of Wu Shan.
"I understand!" Wang replied first, also wanting to see how her cousin was doing these days!
Thinking of this, a strange look appeared in Wang's eyes.
On the other side, Wang Xiuer suddenly rubbed her nose and sneezed several times.
Both Madam Qian and Tang Qi were startled and quickly came over to keep an eye on her.
"How are you? Do you feel unwell anywhere?" Madam Qian quickly asked.
Tang Qi immediately looked at his wife nervously, touching her head repeatedly, afraid that she might have a fever or get sick.
Wang Xiuer felt embarrassed.
Wang Xiuer rarely gets sick, but the few times she has been sick, it always startled her family.
The reason why Wang Xiuer was so attached to Qian Shi was because when Wang Xiuer gave birth to her third child, she caught a cold and almost died.
Qian carried Wang Xiuer to many places before finally pulling her back from the brink of death.
Wang Xiuer fell ill three times after coming to the Tang family, and each time it was very serious.
"Mom, I'm fine, Second Brother, don't always be so alarmed!" Wang Xiuer glanced at her husband, feeling a warmth in her heart.
Tang Qi held Wang Xiuer's hand and sighed as he looked at her large belly.
"Honey, after this baby is born... we don't need any more children, two is enough!"
He was suffering terribly from morning sickness and didn't want to see his wife suffer.
I was just vomiting, but my wife was carrying such a big belly!
Qian had told him about the pain of childbirth, and just thinking about it made Tang Qi feel a little sore.
Wang Xiuer chuckled to herself, feeling that she was doing very well and was very happy!
"Oh dear, I'm really fine, my nose just itches. I wonder which guy is eyeing me!"
Wang Xiuer held her husband and mother-in-law's hands, her face beaming with smiles.
Seeing that Wang Xiuer was truly alright, Madam Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She seemed to realize something, and a hint of a smile appeared in her eyes.
"Speaking of which, Little Su Bao's birthday is coming up soon!"
In just over six months, the little girl has grown up a lot and is completely different from when she first came.
Wang Xiuer's eyes lit up immediately, and she came up with a lot of ideas.
"Mom, this is Xiaosubao's fifth birthday, and it's also her first birthday since she came to our family. We should celebrate it properly!"
Ms. Qian nodded, thinking the same thing.
Putting everything else aside, they can't pretend that nothing happened just because Xiao Su Bao saved their family.
Moreover, the good life the village enjoys today is all thanks to Xiao Su Bao.
Many villagers came to inquire about Xiao Su Bao's birthday.
After thinking for a moment, Madam Qian said, "I also planned to make a big deal out of this, but..."
Now that the drought has lasted for so long, Qian is worried that if the village holds these events in a big way, some people will come and cause trouble.
"Even if it doesn't rain, it's God's choice, what does it have to do with us!"
Wang Xiuer muttered something to herself.
However, thinking about what she had heard from some people in the village, Wang Xiuer couldn't help but sigh.
I wonder how my adoptive parents are doing now?
But now that they're doing well, they don't know if they regret it!
Finally, Tang Qi said, "What's there to be afraid of? Our girl can do whatever she wants. Besides, we'll hold it in the village. Anyone who wants to come can come, and it doesn't matter if they don't!"
After hearing her son's words, Madam Qian simply said, "Alright, let's get this done!"
Little Su Bao was unaware of these things; she was currently learning to draw talismans from the nameless old Taoist priest.
Nowadays, besides attending classes, she spends most of her time learning Taoist practices from the nameless old Taoist priest.
Drawing talismans is basic, and it's easiest for little girls to learn.
Bai Yinjun and the young Taoist Song Yun, standing to the side, were so envious of Xiao Su Bao that they didn't know what to say!
Even though they both drew the same talisman, they just couldn't compare to Xiao Su Bao.
"Uncle Su Bao, you're amazing!" Song Yun's eyes lit up as he watched Little Su Bao draw another peace charm.
Although they were drawing the same talismans, Xiao Su Bao's talismans were far superior to theirs.
More importantly, every stroke of Xiao Su Bao's brush carries a unique charm.
Even he, an experienced artist, is not as good as Xiao Su Bao.
Not to mention that every time Xiao Su Bao draws a talisman, it gives him a new feeling.
This made the young Taoist priest's talisman-drawing skills even better.
"This isn't actually difficult, it's just..."
Little Su Bao's soft, babyish voice could bring a sense of peace.
Even Bai Yinjun quickly stopped and went inside.
Not far away, an unnamed old Taoist priest stroked his beard, his eyes slowly filling with joy.
If only he were my own apprentice, what a pity...
"Don't even think about it. Being able to be her senior brother is already an immense blessing!"
Wang Mingtian appeared out of nowhere, holding a gourd in his hand, and took a big gulp.
The nameless old Taoist frowned slightly and looked at Wang Mingtian, saying, "Your Heavenly Dao injury is serious!"
"Shut up!" Wang Mingtian glared at the guy.
After a pause, Wang Mingtian said, "This matter must not be mentioned in front of the little dumpling!"
"But can you really handle it all by yourself?"
The nameless old Taoist priest lowered his voice slightly, but his face still wore a serious expression.
The reason why so many disasters have occurred in the Great Shang Kingdom is because...
"Alright, we have to hold on even if we can't. They're still so young!" Wang Mingtian took another sip of strong liquor, his eyes becoming slightly glazed.
The nameless old Taoist sighed, and was about to speak when he heard Little Su Bao's sweet, childlike voice.
"Master!"
Little Su Bao saw Wang Mingtian and excitedly ran over.
"Master, look, this is what I drew!"
The baby's soft, babyish voice came through the air, and its eyes were exceptionally clear.
Wang Mingtian was slightly taken aback when he saw the talisman that Xiao Subao had just drawn.
Xiao Su Bao's cheeks flushed, but a faint golden light flashed in her eyes.
Wang Mingtian paused for a moment, then said, "Not bad!"
The nameless old Taoist priest was taken aback for a moment, and he couldn't help but look at Little Su Bao and say, "This is a rain-summoning talisman, isn't it!"
“Yes, senior brother!” Little Su Bao said obediently.
"But I didn't teach you that!"
The nameless old Taoist priest looked at Xiao Su Bao with a strange expression in his eyes, and there was an indescribable emotion in his gaze.
Little Su Bao scratched her head, her smile becoming a little embarrassed.
"You taught me last time, have you forgotten?"
Little Su Bao said to the nameless old Taoist.
The nameless old Taoist paused, recalling what had happened before.
He did teach, but back then it was just...
"You remembered that?"
The nameless old Taoist priest had a complicated look in his eyes, and his mood was somewhat heavy.
Little Su Bao nodded obediently, but seeing that the nameless old Taoist seemed unhappy, Little Su Bao became a little nervous again.
She's used to it; she's worried that she's done something wrong.
The nameless old Taoist patted Little Crispy's head and said, "Hmm, well done!"
The nameless old Taoist carefully put away the rain-summoning talisman.
Thinking of something, he looked at Xiao Su Bao.
"Do you still want to draw this rain-summoning talisman?"
Little Su Bao pursed her lips, lowered her head, and took a deep breath: "Draw!"
She didn't tell her master or her nameless senior brother that she had seen a new scene.
The drought across the country isn't something that will only last a day or two!
Thinking about those glimpses of the future she had glimpsed, a hint of worry appeared in Xiao Su Bao's eyes.
"Alas!" The nameless old Taoist sighed, but ultimately said nothing more.
Wang Mingtian seemed to have noticed something, and a hint of tenderness appeared in his eyes.
"Alright, since you want to draw, then draw more!"
After Wang Mingtian finished speaking, he walked to his good apprentice's side, his hand about to land on Xiao Su Bao's head.
But then, as if remembering something, he withdrew his hand.
But Xiao Su Bao sensed something and subconsciously glanced at her master's palm.
"Master!" Little Su Bao raised her eyes, a hint of surprise in them.
Wang Mingtian curled his lips, took a sip of wine, and his smile deepened.
"Alright, stop staring at Master like that, Master is fine!"
After Wang Mingtian finished speaking, he reached out and rubbed Xiao Su Bao's head.
Before he could retract his hand, Xiao Su Bao grabbed it.
"Master, you're injured!" Little Su Bao's eyes were incredibly bright as she stared straight at Wang Mingtian.
The nameless old Taoist priest curled his lip; this old man was really...
"It's alright, it'll be fine soon!" Wang Mingtian said with a smile, looking at his obedient apprentice.
However, Xiao Su Bao pursed her lips and stared straight at Wang Mingtian.
"Master... Su Bao can tell whether someone is lying to Su Bao!" Little Su Bao lowered her head and spoke softly.
Wang Mingtian...
You know it, why did you have to say it?
Wang Mingtian touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed!
Little Su Bao looked at Wang Mingtian, her little face showing some sadness.
"Alright, Master is really fine, and... everyone has things they need to do!" Wang Mingtian squatted down in front of Xiao Su Bao, making himself and the little dumpling look at each other.
Little Su Bao opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Just now, she saw a black gash on her master's body. The gash was terrifying, as if it was about to absorb her.
Little Su Bao instinctively sensed the danger of that bite.
She felt that one day that opening would swallow her master whole!
It looked like the mouth of a monster...
"But... Su Bao doesn't want Master to leave!"
Little Su Bao's soft, babyish voice carried a hint of crying.
The opening seemed to sense something and tried to split open even wider, attempting to swallow the little baby whole.
Wang Mingtian's face darkened, and he drank half a gourd of wine in one gulp.
"Master!" Little Su Bao exclaimed, her little hands tightly gripping Wang Mingtian, as she tried to transfer her merits to him.
However, Xiao Su Bao's power was completely unable to enter Wang Mingtian's body.
"Alright, it's okay. It's just a worthless thing, don't be afraid!" Wang Mingtian felt a little sorry for the little dumpling.
"Master..."
Little Su Bao called out "Wang Mingtian," but for a moment didn't know what to say next.
"It's alright, it's alright, Master is alright!" Wang Mingtian was unusually flustered.
He was about to speak when he felt a sharp pain in his chest!
Wang Mingtian's expression changed slightly. The thing seemed to sense Xiao Su Bao's presence and was struggling to break free.
Little Su Bao also sensed something, her eyes fixed on Wang Mingtian's chest.
"Lin Bing Dou Zhe Jie Zhen Lie Qian Xing, Zhu Xie!" Wang Tianming formed a hand seal and silently recited the nine-character mantra.
Almost at the same time, a beam of golden light entered Wang Mingtian's chest.
In an instant, the shadows of the surrounding trees swayed, and the dark clouds seemed to solidify.
"You really are..." The nameless old Taoist glanced at Wang Mingtian, and finally looked at Xiao Su Bao.
Almost immediately, the nameless old Taoist took out a talisman, muttered something under his breath, and then a beam of azure light flew out from his hand, obscuring Wang Mingtian's body.
The sky cleared up, and Wang Mingtian's condition improved significantly.
However, the nameless old Taoist staggered and fell directly to the ground.
"Master... what's wrong with Senior Brother..." Xiao Su Bao asked anxiously.
