Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

But the rain wasn't heavy, and it seemed to have evaporated before it even hit the ground.

Shen Yuyu looked at the sky and loudly ordered the three men holding whips.

"Keep on beating, beat hard, beat this old witch possessed by the drought demon to death, so that the rain will fall even harder."

This abominable old witch knew some sky-gazing skills and calculated that it would rain at this time, so she deceived everyone and took an innocent woman in the village as a drought demon.

If she hadn't arrived in time, an innocent life would have been lost in her hands.

If this kind of person is not executed, more people will be harmed by her in the future, and he does not deserve mercy.

The men didn't dare to take action before, but after all, she is a famous witch from all over the country.

This wishful thinking worked, and it really rained. She had no doubts about Shen Yuyu's words. Every time the whip came down, he was so cruel that the old witch screamed in pain.

The old witch was able to carry it, she was injured all over but she didn't faint yet, so she was able to remove the cloth that blocked her mouth.

"Spare your life, Heroine, please spare your life!" The old witch yelled in a voice as loud as a broken gong, "Although I made a mistake, my crime is not punishable by death. Heroine cannot kill people randomly."

Shen Yuyu hummed: "Killing people indiscriminately? How are you a human being? You were possessed by the Han Demon and caused a severe drought in the world. Killing is to eliminate harm to the world."

"No, no, no, I'm not a drought demon. How can there be any drought demon in this world? I made these up, ah~~ I beg the heroine to understand."

The old witch couldn't stand it any longer, so she screamed and revealed the truth.

"I just learned some sky-gazing skills. I guessed that it would rain today by looking at the sky, so I randomly pointed at a bald woman and falsely accused her of being a drought demon~~"

"But Heroine, you can ask around. I have never done anything like this before, and I have never killed anyone. Spare your life, Heroine. I will never dare to lie to anyone again."

The old witch didn't panic. She used to scare people to see flowers to ward off disasters, but this was the first time she did such a big job. She wanted to make a name for herself, but someone saw through her before she could do it, and she almost lost her life.

I was also complaining in my heart.

Shen Yuyu laughed secretly after hearing this, because he wanted to force her to tell the truth, otherwise he would kill her, the old witch, and the other witches Zhang and Li.

After hearing what the old witch said, the villagers looked at each other in shock, not expecting that the truth turned out to be like this.

The woman who was regarded as a drought demon woke up and happened to hear these words. She was so angry that she didn't care about the pain all over her body. She ran over and beat and kicked the old witch.

"You evil bitch, I have no grudges against you, why do you want to harm me? Are you falsely accusing me of being a Hanban and want to put me to death?"

The old witch defended herself, "You can't blame me. I asked if any women in the village were not feeling right, and everyone said that your hair was suddenly falling out for no reason. That Hanbao also has no hair."

After hearing this, the woman realized that her head was bald, and she was so ashamed that she quickly covered it with her sleeves.

The man in his family stared at everyone angrily.

"I've already told you that my woman is not a demon. If you don't believe it, she almost got killed. She just had her head shaved by a demon!"

After hearing this statement, Shen Yuyu shook his head speechlessly.

The ghost shaves his head~~ This is another superstitious statement, it is called alopecia areata! I want to correct it here.

"What's the point of shaving your head? Your woman's hair loss is a disease. I'm a doctor. I'll take a look at her later and see if it can be cured.'

After hearing this, the woman was so excited that she knelt down towards Shen Yuyu.

"Girl, thank you so much for saving me just now. If you can cure my baldness, it will be the second time you save me. If my damn head can't grow hair, I won't be able to live anymore, woo woo woo."

Shen Yuyu stepped forward to help the woman up and said firmly to her, "Sister-in-law, get up quickly. I will diagnose and treat you later. I can cure you."

The woman nodded gratefully and stepped aside.

Shen Yuyu braved the heavier rain and shouted to everyone:
"Villagers, remember, God decides how much and when it will rain. No one can ask for it."

"Next time, if anyone dares to say that he can ask for rain, he will be a liar out of ten, and he will be forced to see the official."

After speaking, he looked at the old witch and said, "Old lady, am I right? It makes sense."

The old witch hurriedly agreed.

"It makes sense, the girl makes sense. How can a mortal have this ability? Ask God for rain? It's just a trick to trick people."

Shen Yue nodded with satisfaction.
Now that the old witch has exposed the truth, she will no longer be able to harm people like this in the future. Even if she wants to harm people like this, no one will believe her anymore. It is not impossible to spare her life.

This matter will no longer be pursued.

At this time, the raindrops were getting heavier and denser, hitting the dry ground and causing smoke, and the air was filled with the smell of dust.

"It's raining, it's finally raining!"

People were overjoyed and took a shower in the rain to receive the baptism of rain that they had not seen for a long time. "Thank you to God, thank you to God."

Now everyone knows that this rain is a gift from God, not someone who asked for it.

The villagers were all partying in the rain, but Jiang Yuyu had already held an umbrella to cover Shen Yuyu.

Shen Yuyu looked at the woman sitting on the ground with her head in her hands. Women in ancient times regarded their hair as their life, and they must have been extremely anxious when they saw the hair falling out.

This will aggravate hair loss, and a vicious cycle will cause women to become bald.

"Brother and sister-in-law, where do you live?'
The man quickly pointed to the village ahead, "It's right there. It's not convenient here with such heavy rain. Why don't you bother me to go to my house?"

"Okay." That's exactly what Shen Yuyu meant.It's easy to check the pulse, but how can you prescribe medicine when the rain is so heavy? Even if you prescribe medicine, it will get wet in the rain, so how can you take the medicine? So Shen Yuyu and Jiang Yuyu held umbrellas and led the horses to follow the young couple to the village.

The houses in the village are made of bricks and wood, and the bricks are not ordinary adobe bricks, but fired blue bricks. This shows that the people here live a pretty good life.

After entering the room, the woman took two clean towels and handed them to Shen Yuyu and Jiang You.

"Are your clothes wet? Did you bring clean ones? Go to my room and change so you don't catch a cold."

Shen Yuyu and Jiang Yuyu were not polite. They took out dry clothes and shoes and socks from their bags and went to the women's room to change. After that, they wiped their wet hair with a dry towel and sat in the main room.

The woman and the man quickly changed their clothes and came out, and the woman politely made ginger tea to relieve the heat.

After drinking a cup of ginger tea, Shen Yuyu took the woman's pulse.

"It's not a big problem." After taking the pulse, Shen Yuyu said, "It's hair loss caused by insufficient blood, and hair loss aggravates worries and makes me unable to sleep at night, which aggravates the symptoms.

As he spoke, he took out a pen and paper and began to write the prescription.

"Take the medicine on time and in the right amount, and relax and get a good night's rest. You will have thick black hair within half a year."

"Really? That's great." The sister-in-law was so moved that she almost shed tears.

The girl's medical skills were unquestionable, and every word she spoke was her symptom.

When she was washing her hair that day, she discovered that a bunch of hair had fallen out on top of her head. When she looked in the mirror, she found a bald patch the size of a fingernail.

She thought it was a ghost shaving her head and was so frightened that she dared not sleep at night.

It just got worse and worse, and my hair was "shaving all off" day by day.

If she hadn't met this girl, she wouldn't have wanted to live. This is why she didn't cry at all when she was tied to a stake and was about to be executed as a drought demon.

The woman took out a silver coin and asked to pay the consultation fee, but Shen Yuxi waved her hand and refused.

"It's just a piece of cake for me. How can I use the consultation fee?"

The sister-in-law and her husband are also grateful to Shen Yuyu, and they don't know how to express their gratitude.

Before the rain stopped, Shen Yue sat down and chatted with them, asking them about the villagers' sources of income, living conditions, etc.

Men and women came one by one.

There are few people here and there is plenty of land. Wheat and corn are grown here, and every household raises sheep. Taxes are not high, so life is good.The only bad thing is that there are droughts from time to time.

Shen Yuyu listened carefully to what they said and thought about it.

Drought is particularly difficult to solve. It is a difficult problem in modern times. Otherwise, there would be no South-to-North Water Diversion Project.

The only solution is to dig water cellars, store the rainwater when it rains, and use it for irrigation during drought.

But this is no small project. The water cellar must not only be dug deep, but also wide, so that a large amount of water can be stored and it will not evaporate.

This requires a lot of manpower and cannot be dug out by one person.

People may not be willing to pay for labor, so this is a difficult task.

After returning to Beijing, let's see if a policy can be introduced to provide subsidies for digging water cellars. As long as it doesn't cost money, farmers should be willing to do this.

After drinking tea and sitting for a long time, I almost understood the situation.

In the afternoon, Shen Yue and Jiang Yue left the village while the rain had subsided.

We stayed in a nearby county that night. It still rained heavily the next day. Depending on the weather, it should rain for several days.

It was difficult to travel on horseback, so the two of them changed to a carriage.

I happened to be tired from horseback riding, so I took this opportunity to take a rest and relax.

The carriage is relatively slow, and you can still drink tea and chat while sitting in the carriage.

"Sister Jiang, are you homesick?" Shen Yue poured a cup of tea for Jiang Yue and asked with a smile.

"I thought about it." Jiang Yuyu's eyes darkened, "After I regained my memory, I took my man back to Taogou Village."

When she said this, her eyes were red. She not only missed her parents and relatives, but also thought of the obedient man. Unfortunately, she later died at the hands of Bai Die. It was she who harmed him.

"After returning to Beijing, you and Aqin should go back to Daqi. That is your hometown."

After being away from home for so long, Shen Yuyu realized the loneliness of being in a foreign land.

"Why don't you go back to Taogou Village to visit? My grandparents, my parents, my uncles, aunts and sisters-in-law all miss you and brother-in-law Ah Xun very much."

"Of course I have to go back." Shen Yuyu felt a little emotional in his heart. "When I left Taogou Village, I said I would visit them next spring. I didn't think about it but I made a mistake."

"After Ah Xun calms down this matter and the world is at peace, Ah Xun and I will take our children to Da Qi to visit our parents' families."

She also cares about many people in her heart, including her father, Ah Feng, her grandfather’s family, Brother Xingwang’s family~~
In addition, there are brothers Zhao Han, Dongfang Mo, Meng Fan~~ these people who have appeared in her life, people she is grateful for.

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a very familiar voice coming from outside.

"Sister Yu Yu, what a coincidence, we meet again." (End of chapter)
