Chapter Ninety-Eight: Pity and Compassion, Protect the Short
The three of them hugged each other and cried in the dark.
The old lady and Mama Wu were very moved, but since Ziqing was so good to them, they were all people buried in the loess to their necks, but they couldn't bury their children here for the rest of their lives because of the two dead old women.
So they began to persuade Ziqing, and packed up the gold and silver in the house, and even wanted to remarry her in the name of a righteous daughter......
Ziqing was completely frightened by the actions of the two old women.
In fact, during this time, in addition to cultivation, Ziqing has been thinking about the plot. According to the plot trend of the original owner, the original owner will be subjected to many difficulties by Mrs. Wang and Mama Wu during this time. According to the plot of the previous mission player, during this time, she began to make the Wang family's pottery industry prosperous, and then came into contact with all kinds of men step by step......
But during this time, Ziqing didn't do anything, fell silent, and gathered strength. Unexpectedly, her inaction made the plot gentleman unwilling to be lonely.
Lack of water? Oh, this desert village will become a deserted village in less than two months. No matter where she goes, as long as she comes into contact with people from the outside world, I'm afraid that those peach blossom rotten debts will follow one after another.
Therefore, Ziqing decided that he couldn't leave this place no matter what, and he must get through this most difficult period. As long as she becomes the grandmother of the Wang family, those three mission goals will naturally be completed.
But the most important thing now is how to deal with the problem of water shortage.
There are some reserves in the personal space, which can barely last for a month or two for personal use, if you want to maintain the whole village...... Hehe, one bowl of water is not enough, and the most important thing is how to explain where this water comes from?
Ziqing appeased the two old men, and then went to the ancient well in person. She wanted to see why it was cut off.
The ancient well was built in the depths of the mountain col, with a wall on the outside and a small door, and the ancient well on the inside.
Every day, someone will watch over the small door here, on the one hand, to maintain the ancient well, and on the other hand, to prevent someone from breaking or wasting water.
Dozens of people gathered outside the courtyard walls, buckets beside them. Crowded. It's a mess. Someone brought out half a bucket of muddy water and said, "It's really out of flow, I'm afraid I can only scoop a few buckets......
One word stirred up a thousand waves. The person guarding the door became excited, "What should I do, there is not a drop of water in the house, this is to kill people with thirst......"
"We are ...... too"
The more people talked, the more excited they became. The queue just now was all messed up, and they all squeezed to the front.
"What a noise. Give me all the quiet! ”
The old lady rattled the cane and pestle, and when people heard the sound, they looked back and immediately fell silent. But his face was full of anxiety.
Ziqing and Mama Wu followed behind the old lady, and said in their hearts, the Wang family is the big family here. Sure enough, the old lady suppressed these people with a word.
People automatically get out of the way. The old lame man guarding the door looked very excited, "Old lady, look, this ......"
The old lady said: "This year's drought is dry, and I am sending people to ask people to find water, and this time is ...... If any of you don't want to stay here, you can go outside first, and when you find a water source later, it's up to you to decide where you want to come, and my wife will never embarrass anyone! ”
In fact, everyone has the intention of leaving, there is no water, here is waiting for death. And dying of thirst is worse than dying of starvation. Hearing the old lady say this, thinking of the previous glory, they were also proud to be a member of the Wangjiazhuang, in the good years, they also received a lot of favors from the Wang family, and now ......
Everyone looked at each other, their faces were colorful, "Old lady, I didn't mean that......"
The old lady sighed, "This is what God means, I know your intentions. So be it, scoop up the water from the well, clarify it, fill it with water bladders, pack it up and go to the nearest village to take shelter for a while......"
"Old lady......"
"Okay, my words have been said, don't be so mother-in-law......" The old lady yelled impatiently, Ziqing saw that there were tears flashing in her eyes, and knew that she was not feeling well. Subconsciously stepped forward and stroked her back.
At this time, a woman muttered on a flat shoulder: "The old lady is right, this is what God meant, since that woman entered the village, the dog of the Zhuzi family was bitten to death by a poisonous snake, and my family's food was also ......"
As soon as the woman's voice fell, a few women next to her glanced in the direction of Ziqing, their lips squirming, and it seemed that they were usually talking about this yin bride behind their backs. The bride is not so auspicious, and now is the right time to put the blame for the shut-off of the water well on Ziqing.
But before the women could say yes, the old lady slammed her crutches to the ground and yelled at the woman, "Second woman, what did you just say? Usually how do you play right and wrong, my old woman is too lazy to care about you, if you dare to say half a word about my daughter, my old woman will never give up with you! ”
Speaking of this, the old woman straightened her back and said to everyone: "You all listen to me, Lan'er is my daughter, I kiss my daughter, if anyone dares to talk behind their backs in the future, don't say that you are from Wangjiazhuang!" ”
Everyone was shocked and immediately lowered their heads.
The faces of those people were still a little angry. If it were in normal times, Mrs. Wang's words would naturally be true, but now it is different from the past, there is no water source here, what Wangjiazhuang, I am afraid that it will be swallowed up by the desert soon. She is not uncommon to be a person from Wangjiazhuang.
The women were still muttering, but several men frowned and scolded in low voices.
The woman suddenly exploded, "Wang Er, what are you doing to me so fiercely?" I came to your house to give birth to children and serve your family, have you ever had a good face for me? Ah, now you will bluff me with a word from the old woman. Besides, this incident was originally caused by that parent."
"Smack-"
A loud slap made everyone stunned. Because this Wang Lao Er is a strict wife who has died, I didn't expect that this time he would dare to take the initiative to beat his wife...... Someone went up to convince him.
But the woman is really spicy, and she vividly interprets one crying, two troubles, and three hangings. Several other women went up to persuade the fight, some accused the man of not, some said that it was a natural disaster, in short, they all insinuated that this was the injustice brought by Ziqing, and they wanted to get Ziqing to sacrifice to the well.
Zi Jing listened, but frowned slightly.
Sacrificial wells? Oh, it's a shame that they came up with it.
None of them can survive if they move their fingers, and in the last task, they only showed two moves to become the leader of the martial arts alliance, and they really don't know how powerful they are if they don't do it.
Well, okay, it's better not to let them know how good they are, lest they accidentally attract bees and butterflies?
Exhale, inhale, calm down, and finish the task first and pack up slowly!
