Chapter 200 It’s too difficult if God doesn’t rain!
…
The beggar boy and Cai waited outside for a long time.
"Why haven't they come out yet? Have they been discovered and locked up in a small dark room in the school? I heard that some schools have small dark rooms specifically for disobedient children, and after entering them, the children will be scared and cry." said the beggar boy.
Cai was worried. "What should we do?"
"I'll climb over the wall and take a look..."
As he was speaking, Sanbao and Xiaoyuanbao came out openly under the leadership of an old man.
He was chatting and laughing with the old man as they walked.
Very friendly and familiar.
When the beggar boy saw the old man's appearance, he immediately hid behind the carriage.
I don't want to use it. This old thing must have been attracted by the precious light!
The small town of Baili is bustling!
***
After returning home, Cai asked about the situation.
Sanbao was a quick-talker, and in just a few words he told the whole story.
Cai heaved a sigh of relief. "It's good that it's not a man-eating monster. I feel relieved now."
Sanbao said, "Sister said he is very powerful. By the way, sister, if you two fight, who is more powerful between you and him?"
Xiao Yuanbao thought about it seriously, "Baby can't beat him, he is more powerful than Baby..."
At this point, Sanbao was impressed and said, "He is so amazing! Wang Tiangou is unwilling to take him as his master, so why don't I give it a try? Sister, do you think he will accept me?"
Xiao Yuanbao is a good sister of the nation, and I can't bear to hit him.
I just asked him gently, "Third brother, do you like studying?"
Sanbao immediately hung his head in despair, "I don't like it! Forget it, there is no master-disciple relationship between me and that old man."
The beggar boy who was driving a horse-drawn carriage outside was amused by what he heard.
First, he thought that Le Sanbao was thinking too much. Wasn't that old man Mei the kind of person who would accept anyone as his disciple?
Second, old man Le Mei was rejected when he tried to accept a disciple.
He can publicize this for free after returning to Beijing.
interesting!
When the carriage arrived home, we could see several villagers waiting at the door from a distance.
Wait for Cai and the others to come back.
"Madam Cai, do you have a waterwheel? Please lend it to us to pump water. It hasn't rained yet, so we can only pump river water to the fields..."
"Yes, we also borrowed it for our use. Our fields are also on the river bank. It would be a pity if God didn't send rain! In previous years, it would have rained several times at this time of year."
Cai was a kind-hearted person. "Sure, the waterwheel is in the backyard. You can come with me to get it. We have never used the waterwheel before, and we don't know if it is broken or not. It must have been given to us by the previous owner when we bought the land..."
"Okay, thank you very much, let's take it back and try it..."
Xiao Yuanbao got off the carriage.
Running very fast, "Baby will help you pedal the water wheel..."
Before, when the waterwheel was delivered to their home, she studied it and thought it was very interesting.
The older brother also said that he would take her to play with the waterwheel when it was needed in the future.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw Xiao Yuanbao being so positive.
Children are still happier.
Everyone knows that Xiao Yuanbao is very strong, so it is great that she is willing to help.
Sanbao and the beggar boy also went to help.
Everyone loaded the waterwheel onto the oxcart and took it to the river together.
Help farmers tread water.
The little kid had a lot of fun playing and was very happy until his whole body was wet.
There was not just one waterwheel on the river bank, but several. And they were not just from Tangjia Village. People from other villages also used large waterwheels to draw water from the river bank.
Xiao Yuanbao, Sanbao and other children helped to tread water and had a lot of fun.
The adults, however, looked sad.
In this situation, if it doesn't rain.
In a few days, all the water in the river will be pumped out.
What shall we do then?
Soon, it was time for lunch. After Cai prepared the meal, she followed Xiao Yuanbao and the others' cheerful laughter and came over.
"Little Yuanbao, come home and have dinner. Mommy made your favorite chicken drumstick for you."
When little Yuanbao heard that there was chicken legs to eat, he stopped pedaling the waterwheel and ran towards Cai. Sanbao and the beggar boy also hurriedly followed him, and returned home amidst laughter.
After lunch, the afternoon sun was scorching the earth, and occasionally a cool breeze blew, making people feel comfortable.
After eating his fill, Little Yuanbao fell to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
I saw a chubby little ball lying on the ground, with its two little braids drooping listlessly, its eyes squinting between its brows like a crescent moon hanging high in the sky, a smile on the corners of its mouth, and its mouth subconsciously sucking its fingers, as if it had dreamed of something delicious.
Cai carefully picked up little Yuanbao, wiped her face, washed her hands, and then gently put her on the bed in the room. She moved gently, fearing that any loud noise would wake her up. The window was open and the wind outside blew gently, making her feel very comfortable.
After settling little Yuanbao, Cai cleaned the house. Just as she was about to lie down to accompany little Yuanbao to sleep, she heard someone knocking on the door, followed by the voice of fortune-teller Liu.
"Master, is Master Xiao Yuanbao home?"
Cai came over to open the door. There was a beggar boy lying in the shade at the door. The beggar boy was curiously looking at the witch Liu who was knocking on the door. After seeing Cai open the door, he lay down again, but he kept his eyes open and was listening to the conversation between the two.
Cai looked at fortune-teller Liu.
At this time, there was already a layer of fine beads of sweat on the forehead of Goddess Liu. She rushed here in such a hot afternoon, so there must be something urgent.
"Is this Goddess Liu? Have you had lunch yet? Is there something urgent that brought you here to see Xiao Yuanbao?"
"Madam Cai, Master is at home. I have a good job. I came to ask if Master wants to go with me."
"What's the matter? The child just fell asleep."
"What's going on is that the weather has been getting drier recently. It used to rain several times at this time of year, but this year there hasn't been a drop of rain. Instead, the water in the rivers and wells has gradually dried up. If this continues, there will be no harvest from the fields this year. The gentry in Wusu Town have stepped forward and offered a large sum of money, hoping to ask the famous fortune-tellers from all over the surrounding villages to come and pray for rain!"
When Cai heard this, she was also worried.
"That's right. The river in our village is almost dry, and every household's well is running dry. It's so worrying! Wusu Town is great. Wusu Town came to you to pray for rain, which is a great thing!"
The beggar boys pricked up their ears and listened, praying for rain?
Witch Liu said, "Yes! I have a little personal reputation, and they asked me to recommend a few powerful colleagues to go together. I thought of our young master, so we can go together..."
Cai exclaimed, "I've never heard that my little girl can pray for rain!"
Goddess Liu said, "Our young master is so powerful, what if she can do it? You haven't heard of it, that's because you haven't asked. This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. If it brings rain, wouldn't it be a great merit?"
