Chapter 135 It’s Just Raining, What’s the Problem?
Chen Shaobei came with his troops, but he had not yet changed out of his silver armor.
Stopping the horse in front of Shen Ningning, he took the initiative to step forward: "Miss Shen, His Highness the Crown Prince knows that your tea shed is opening today, and he specially asked me to bring people to support it."
"He has something to do and can't leave for the time being, but he specifically asked me to bring him a drink back."
As he spoke, Chen Shaobei took out a heavy purse from his sleeve and placed it on the table.
"Look, there are about thirty of us, do we have enough money?"
Shen Ningning smiled sweetly: "It's definitely enough! Even if it's not enough, it doesn't matter, just treat it like I'm treating you to a drink~"
After that, she asked Chen Shaobei to come forward and pick their favorite flavor.
Jiang Zhi stood behind the table with her arms folded. She glanced at Chen Shaobei and couldn't help but hum when she thought of the kind words he had said for her.
Although she no longer hates him, she will never forget that he did it rashly!
Chen Shaobei seemed to be used to Jiang Zhi's snoring attitude.
There was a natural expression on his handsome and elegant face.
Pointing to three cups: "Ten cups of each of these flavors."
Jiang Zhi didn't talk nonsense and started doing it immediately.
Chen Shaobei asked politely: "Do you need my help?"
After all, he ordered a lot.
Jiang Zhi glanced at him: "No need."
Chen Shaobei pursed his lips and stopped asking for trouble.
When the sugar water was ready, Chen Shaobei realized that there was an extra cup.
"That's more." He said calmly to Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi didn't even raise her head to look at him, she just said: "I bought you a drink. You asked for thirty cups, but the soldiers you brought were twenty-nine. Plus the prince wanted to drink, it was just enough for three cups." ten."
"There's no need to thank me. Our grudges will be wiped out."
Chen Shaobei was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Okay, thank you very much."
He turned to Shen Ningning and said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and there will be a palace banquet. His Highness the Crown Prince asked me to tell you that he will come to take you into the palace by then."
The little guy hesitated.
Before she opened her mouth, Chen Shaobei continued: "His Highness also ordered Mrs. Qin to accompany her."
Shen Ningning suddenly beamed: "Okay, I'll remember it!"
Lu Shaoyuan on the side swallowed what he had not finished.
He also wanted to invite Shen Ningning to his home to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoy the moon.
But every time, it seems that he is one step away from becoming a prince.
…
Shen Ningning has been planting land in the fairyland for a long time.
Her dark clouds had grown so big that each one was as long as a baby's arm and very thick.
When Shen Ningning touched it with her little hands, it felt like she was holding a ball of wet cotton.
With a gentle squeeze, water gushes.
She stroked the dark cloud tree and thought longingly: "When the little dark clouds grow bigger, they can be released to rain!"
By then, everyone won’t have to worry about running out of water.
Shen Ningning felt happy when she thought of this, so she started weeding and loosening the soil of Wuyun Tree.
Finally, she took five or six aconite and planned to go to the capital to exchange for some money.
The money from selling the aconite was almost spent on the tea shed.
As soon as they entered the capital, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Chen Ye turned his head and said to the curtain: "Miss, someone is blocking the way in front of me."
The little guy lifted the curtain and looked outside.
I saw an old man in his seventies, wearing rags, kneeling on the ground, begging a wealthy businessman.
Shen Ningning took a closer look and saw that the wealthy businessman was Badshun.
His face was full of contempt now, and the old man kowtowed to him, but he couldn't get him to look at him seriously.
Instead, he kicked the old man away impatiently.
"You are so poor that you are crazy. If you keep pestering me, believe it or not, I will send you to the government and give you a slap in the face!" Badshun scolded angrily.
Several of the followers behind him immediately spoke harshly to the old man.
The old man knelt down until his head was bruised and bleeding, and he choked with sobs: "Master Ba, please do a good job. My granddaughter worked as a female worker in your house and died inexplicably."
"Everyone at the coffin shop said that she was insulted during her lifetime and committed suicide!"
Badshun frowned: "What, you still want me to find the real culprit for your short-lived granddaughter?"
"After your granddaughter died, no one did her work. How much time was wasted on me, and I haven't even settled the account with you yet!"
The old man was startled and frightened.
He asked tremblingly: "Then... my granddaughter has worked in the house for half a year, can she still pay me back the salary?"
Badshun sneered: "Return? Go to your dream!"
He kicked the old man down.
The old man ignored the pain and quickly got up and kowtowed.
"That child is in trouble. Her parents died early, and we, the old couple, are in pain and waiting for her wages to treat her illness and save her life."
"Master Ba, please, if you don't give me this salary, my granddaughter will not be able to rest at ease!"
More and more people gathered around to watch.
Bud couldn't stand it, so he came up with a damaging move.
"You, a pariah, want to scare me with your talk of ghosts and gods?"
"If you want me to give you my wages, just kowtow and beg for this day! If God gives you rain, I will pay you back your wages, double, how about that?"
The old man's face froze.
People around were whispering——
"This is too embarrassing. How long has it been since it rained?"
Chen Ye also couldn't stand listening.
He glanced sideways and asked, "Miss, do you need my help?"
Shen Ningning's round face had a calm and well-behaved expression.
She shook her head: "No, we'll just wait and see here. Badshun will definitely spit out the wages today."
Chen Ye was startled.
He looked up at the bright sky.
It was almost Mid-Autumn Festival, but the weather was not cool at all, and the scorching sun was still shining in the sky.
It is not easy to make it rain when you say it will? Unless the gods have mercy, but it is simply a fantasy.
The servant behind Badshun sneered: "Please! Why don't you beg? Didn't you just speak righteously?"
"Hmph, in my opinion, you just want to blackmail our master's money!"
The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and kowtowed to the sky.
"Please have mercy on the Goddess of Rain, and please give me a way out..."
Badeshun was stunned, and then spat: "What a crazy old man."
"Let him kowtow, let's go!"
Just as he was about to take people away, there was a rumbling thunder in the sky above his head.
The rain and wind rose from the ground, and dark clouds suddenly covered the sky.
The people present were stunned.
The weather was sunny just now, but now it was covered with dark clouds and thunder, which made people feel numb!
Suddenly!
A bean-sized raindrop fell.
Then, with crackling sounds, heavy rain came.
Some people cheered, some were stunned, and some called their friends and rushed back home to get water.
The streets were filled with joyful shouts -
"It's raining, it's really raining!"
Shen Ningning, who was in the carriage, quietly withdrew her little hand.
She looked at the old man with an ecstatic and relieved smile.
Turning her head, she found that Badeshun actually wanted to run!
"Brother Chen, hold him down." The little guy's eyes turned cold, and he ordered.
At the same time.
In Wei's mansion.
Wei Shangshu rushed to Wei Yufu's room hastily and pulled his daughter who was still taking a nap.
"Daughter, the opportunity has come! It's raining outside, it's a good time for you to show up!"
As long as the emperor's spies see it, the credit for today's rain can be his daughter's.
Wei Yufu looked irritable and sleepy: "Dad! I haven't woken up yet!"
"You can sleep anytime, but this rain is coming at the right time. If you don't go now, you won't have such a good time. Hurry!" Wei Shangshu grabbed her and walked out.
