Chapter 136: Prophecy

Chen Wenhui followed her father all over Deqing and was very happy. During the visit, Chen Yuanheng chatted with the old people in the village several times, and the old people predicted that there might be natural disasters next year, and it is estimated that there will be a major drought.

Chen Yuanheng attaches great importance to it, Chen Wenhui thinks that this weather condition is not predictable in the previous life when science and technology were so developed, can it be predicted accurately in such a backward ancient world? But Chen Yuanheng said that these old people are all perennial farm workers, and they are very good at observing the weather.

Chen Wenhui remembered that there was one in the Chinese class she learned when she was a child in her previous life, which seemed to judge the weather according to the shape of the clouds, and there was a proverb: If you don't go out in the morning glow, you will travel thousands of miles in the sunset. It can be seen that there is still a certain scientific basis for these, and it is not one old man who says this, but many old people in different places. Chen Wenhui felt that this thing might become true.

If it is true, there will be losses in their own family, after all, there are many granges in their family now, and there are tens of thousands of acres of fertile land. It's better to think of a way as soon as possible. Chen Wenhui was an urban white-collar worker in her previous life, and she didn't think much about this, so she tried to think about it, and finally thought of a few ways for her, one is to build a diversion canal and divert water from the lake, pond, and river to the field, so that it is easier to fight drought. These were all watched on TV in a previous life. Those TV dramas always talk about leaders leading villagers to build canals to get rich, of course, in the end, these leaders are exhausted, and the canals are also built. The leader here seems to be his father, but his father will not personally carry the big stone to repair the canal, as long as the order is given, someone will naturally work. Another way is to grow some drought-tolerant crops. If you know that there is a drought and still plant rice, you will definitely lose the harvest, and if you plant something else, although the yield will be reduced, it is better than no harvest. As for the drought-tolerant crops, the four crops that I promote at home are the easiest, cotton. Soybeans, corn, and sweet potatoes are all drought-tolerant.

After thinking about the idea, Chen Wenhui told his father that Chen Yuanheng had always been obedient to his daughter's words, listened to his daughter's opinion, and hurriedly convened his subordinates to study, and finally, it was decided to take advantage of the winter leisure to gather the people to build several large aqueducts. Anyway, there are many mountains in the surrounding counties of Deqing. There are lakes in the mountains. Just bring the water down. It is the plain area, because it is located in the south of the Yangtze River, there are many small lakes, and it is enough to build a diversion canal around the lake, and the amount of work is actually not large. After settling down, Chen Yuanheng divided the work among them. Not only Deqing repaired the canal, but the five surrounding counties were under the jurisdiction of Chen Yuanheng, and Chen Yuanheng summoned the county orders of those five counties, assigned tasks, and asked them to repair them.

After doing this, Chen Yuanheng wrote an official document to his boss Assassin Shi, reporting on the repair of the canal, focusing on the old people's prediction that there would be a drought. It's a pity that the official document went into the hands of the assassin. Thorn Shi Yan Songbai just sneered and threw it aside.

Yan Songbai muttered in his heart, this Chen Yuanheng is a moth again, can't he stop the meeting? Even the prophecy has been wholeed out, can it be more outrageous? Yan Songbai decided to ignore him. Now Yan Songbai has more important things to do. Because the concubine Xu Baozhu gave birth to a son to him, this is an old man, Yan Songbai hurts like a baby. Now I want to see my youngest son every day.

Thinking of this, Yan Songbai cleaned up, went directly back to the back house from the yamen, and went to Baozhu's residence. The two sisters have now moved back to the main house. Yan Songbai had a very comfortable life these days, and when he returned to the main room, he could see his pink and cute little son, and he could go to the pearl room to fool around at night. Pearl is getting older and more beautiful now, and she is dressed up specially, which is very cute, forget it, Baozhu is a virtuous one, considering that he has to take a child and can't serve his husband, so he asked his brother to go to Suzhou to buy four stunning maids, Yan Songbai as long as he thinks of these four maids like water spirits and goblins, his heart is hot, and now these four maids are put in the pearl room, Yan Songbai often messes with pearls, four maids, and several other aunts in the backyard don't even go.

In this way, the stewardship of the Yan family fell into the hands of Baozhu, and the fifth aunt who was originally in charge of housework was found by Baozhu for a reason, sued in front of Yan Songbai, and sent it back to her parents' house. The other aunts were afraid of Baozhu's stern wrists, and they all restrained themselves.

Baozhu told Yan Songbai that he brought his mother's brother to manage the external affairs of the house, and his mother's mother also got it to manage the internal affairs of the house. Originally, the mother-in-law's housekeeper was unreasonable, but this mother-in-law was not a serious mother-in-law, just the mother of a concubine, and her status was equivalent to that of a subordinate, so Yan Songbai agreed.

At this time, both inside and outside the Yan Mansion have become the world of treasure beads. The outside affairs are in charge of Baozhu's brother Xu Jizu, who is fishing for oil and water. The housekeeping is managed by the mother Sun, and the few remaining aunts are properly managed, and Pearl and four maids are dedicated to serving Yan Songbai.

According to the external statement, Baozhu is specifically responsible for taking the little boy, but this is not the case.

On this day, Yan Songbai went to the Yamen, and Pearl saw that the three rubies given by Yan Songbai were very good, so she took them to her sister, thinking that she would give her sister and mother one each, and make three pieces of jewelry to wear. As soon as I walked to my sister's door, I saw the maid of Baozhu entering the house in a panic, and after a while, she hurriedly came out to block her from entering. Pearl was puzzled, stretched out her hand and hit the maid a few times, and then broke in.

I saw that the house was turned over by the red waves, and the account was lowered, and Pearl thought, why did Baozhu sleep so early, and walked in to take a look, only to see that Baozhu was slowly dressing in an orderly manner, and there was a man standing next to him, handsome and majestic, with a high-spirited temperament, and when he looked seriously, it turned out to be a guard in the house.

Pearl is strange, how can the guard enter this backyard, and stay in his sister's room.

Before Pearl could react, Baozhu said to the guard with a calm face, "I still have something to do, you can go back first." ”

The guard, with a pair of peach blossom eyes, glanced at the pearl quickly, showed a squinting expression, and withdrew.

Pearl immediately understood, blushed and said, "Sister, how dare you do this?" What if the master finds out? ”

Baozhu said with a smile: "Sister, do you really have feelings for that old man?" I'm not just doing it today, I've been doing it a long time ago. Both my mother and my brother knew. ”

The pearl was immediately flustered.

Baozhu said: "Sister, you are a brainless, why don't you want to think about it, if I don't want to give birth to a son, the two of us sisters will have no place to stand, I am afraid that when my father had an accident, I threw it to the dead old man." Where can you still be like now, with fine clothes and fine food, a special room, and dominate the backyard of this Thorn Mansion? ”

Pearl thought about it, and suddenly thought of something: "Sister, what do you mean, you are the son of the son, so this little boy is not the son of the master?" ”

Baozhu laughed out loud and said, "My silly sister, how many flower-like beauties have come in this mansion, but apart from you, have you heard of anyone who is pregnant?" ”

Pearls think about it, but no.

Baozhu continued: "That is to say, it is very difficult for that dead old man to get a woman pregnant. Just think about his perverted sexual affairs, can he have children? Of course, he was at home in the capital, but his wife gave birth to him, they were all born when he was young, did he have a son when he was old? I heard that he also has a lot of concubines at home in the capital, and none of them have children, don't you understand? ”

Pearl thought for a moment about the unbearable perverted hobbies of sharing sex with Yan Songbai, and it really wasn't like having children.

Baozhu said: "Our sisters are married to him, is he sincere to us?" I'm afraid it's just when we're playthings, right? ”

Pearl nodded.

Baozhu said: "Now that we are young and beautiful, he naturally loves us, but after a few days we get tired and tired, what should we do?" We are not serious ladies, and we are not going to be abandoned by him sooner or later? Even if he doesn't abandon us, when he is full, he will naturally have to go back to the capital, and he will not take us with him when the time comes. Even if we take us back to the capital, then there is a serious lady, and we can still have our good fruits to eat?"

Thinking of this, Pearl couldn't help but shudder.

Baozhu said: "So, I thought of a way early, first arranged for each aunt to watch over them, and then found a strong guard as a lover, naturally it is easy to conceive, God treats me well, and I get a man in one fell swoop, now it's good, we are not affected by our father, and we also took my mother and brother out, enjoy this wealth together, and dominate the backyard of this thorn history." Would this have been possible without my advance planning? ”

When Pearl heard this, she said, "Sister, you are so smart. It's just that in the future, I will have to be more secretive, and there are still many people in this backyard, guarding against the leakage of rumors. ”

Baozhu's face turned cold and said: "Hmph, in this courtyard, those four maids were bought by us, and the deed of sale is in my hands, and they don't dare to leak the news, the only thing to worry about is the remaining aunts." The two of us sisters worked together to get their ideas out of the way. When the time comes, we will think of getting more money with our mother and brother, and then we will choose a handsome one for you, and you will work hard to serve that dead old man, and it is time to treat yourself. ”

When Pearl heard this, her face flushed, thinking about the majestic figure of the guard just now, and then thinking about the old skin and old flesh of Thorn Shi, her heart suddenly became hot. The face was even redder.

Baozhu laughed when she saw her sister like this.
