Follow my mother to remarry! The God of War Baili Hongzhuang is planning to marry me!

After five days of heavy rain, the paddy fields in Chenjia Village turned into a vast ocean, and tens of thousands of acres of grain that were about to be harvested were lost.

The people of the entire Chenjia Village were crying and shouting at home, and the situation in the Chen family was the worst. The old woman in the Chen family was so sick that she couldn't get up from the kang!

I know that all the food in my house has been soaked by water, and I will definitely have no harvest this year!

The second and third sons of the Chen family were sulking at home. It was obvious that the grain stored at home was secretly sold by his eldest brother. Otherwise, where did hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain go?

This was originally their family background. The two of them had never studied since childhood. Although they didn't have the brains, how much money did their family spend on their eldest brother's study for so many years? How much money did it cost to marry a young lady from an official family in Beijing this time?

The two brothers had worked so hard for so many years, relying on the food, hoping to have a family in the future and live a prosperous life in the capital!

Now that the grain has been sold by the eldest brother, don’t they both become fools? The thought of it makes them feel unbalanced. They can’t tell their wives at home. If they tell them, they won’t be able to live with it!

Old Man Chen in the county town couldn't sit still any longer. He couldn't sleep with the little girl in his arms in the county town. The rain kept falling and the water level in the county town was rising. It wasn't a big deal! He asked his clerk to look after the shop and rode his donkey back to Chenjia Village in the rain!

Seeing countless fields turned into a vast ocean, the old man instantly had a bad feeling, it was over!

The dam must have been washed away, otherwise the water would not have flooded over. When Mr. Chen returned home and saw that his wife was sick and the house was still dead silent, he felt that something bad was going to happen!

This matter can no longer be concealed. The flooding is so severe that it is obvious that food prices are going to rise soon!

But his family can't provide food, so won't his two younger sons rebel?

The old man hurried to the village headman's house and asked him to help write a letter to his eldest son.

The letter was written in a very simple manner, asking the eldest son to arrange a place for their family in the capital as soon as possible, and that they would move to the capital with their entire family after the flood was over.

He told his eldest son very clearly that since he had sold the family's stored grain, he must have money in his hands, so he should buy a house for the second and third sons in the family. After they moved in, the old couple would live with the eldest son, and the second and third sons would each have a small house, and they would live there for the time being and talk about it later!

Mr. Chen's idea is very simple. The eldest son is a high-ranking official and married to a rich family. The couple will enjoy a good life there! The second and third sons can also be supported by their elder brother who is an official, so their lives will not be bad!

The old woman cried heart-wrenchingly at home, and she began to blame her eldest son: "I don't know what Shengda was thinking. He passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar, so can't he come back? Can't he take his wife and children with him? People say that a man who neglects his wife will never make any money. He actually gave up his wife and children. This is a punishment from heaven!"

Otherwise, how could the Chen family's fields yield nothing?"

Old Master Chen roared angrily: "Asshole! Don't mention such things again. We have already kicked the old family out, why are you bringing this up now?

I have already sent a letter to the eldest brother, asking him to make arrangements in the capital. When the flood is over, we will pack up our belongings, sell all the valuables, and go to the capital with the whole family!"

The old woman said, "Master, can the eldest son take us in along with the second and third sons?"

Old Master Chen looked around and said helplessly: "Are you a fool? The boss secretly sold all the grain in our cellar and granary. We have nothing left. How can we stay here?

There is no harvest this year. The little food in the shop will be snatched away in a few days after the flood!

If our whole family stays here, we will only starve to death. The only solution now is to go to the capital to find the boss. The boss must have sold so much food, so he must have money in his hands!"

This sentence happened to be heard by the second daughter-in-law, who was standing outside the door with one foot in front of the other. She knew that her eldest uncle had touched the family assets, but she didn't know that he had emptied them all. Now she felt bad.

It turned out that before the eldest son of the family went to Beijing to take the imperial examination, he sold all the grain in the family’s large granary, so now the Chen family has become an empty shell.

The second son's wife hurried back to her own courtyard, but she met the third son's wife who came to borrow a pair of shoes from him. The two sisters-in-law whispered about the matter.

That afternoon, a quarrel broke out in the Chen family's yard. The two wives fought and screamed. They fought with their husbands with all their might and wanted to separate and live on their own. They said they were not willing to go to Beijing to live under the control of their eldest uncle!

The two brothers of the Chen family were not fools. How could they split up the family at this time? What would they do after they split up?

The Chen family was in a state of chaos. In the heavy rain, the two daughters-in-law of the Chen family were shouting that they couldn't go on. The old woman of the Chen family was so angry that she was trembling, and the old man was holding a pickaxe and wanted to kill and beat them!

The atmosphere in Xiao Shenjiazhuang, more than ten miles away, was indeed joyful. Although it was still raining today, the little girl Shen Ruyi, who was sitting at home, had become a happy child.

Uncle Wei, who carried her on his back every day, had to carry her and his two men to the middle of the mountain today to check the water level. They saw the water level rising higher and higher, but it was obvious that the rain was lighter today. Lighter rain proved that the water would recede little by little!

Wei Zhendong frowned as he watched all this: "It's raining so hard, I think the grain harvest in Jiangnan Prefecture will be completely lost this year. I'm afraid famine is inevitable."

Today, Shen Ruyi wanted to eat fish at home, so she asked Wei Chuang to get her a basket. Shen Ruyi struggled to get down from Wei Zhendong's back and tied a rope to the basket!

She broke off a few pieces of the pie that her mother-in-law Fang had made for her and threw them into the basket, then grabbed the rope and threw the basket down.

Wei Dazhuang, who was beside her, just looked at the little girl and felt a little distressed when she threw the basket in. Could it be that the little girl didn't like the basket anymore?

After a short while, because the pie was made with spiritual spring water and flour, it quickly attracted fish!

Shen Ruyi started to pull the rope, but she was too small, so she turned around and shouted, "Uncle Dazhuang, uncle... help me pull the rope!"

Wei Dazhuang said in a daze: "Ruyi! Didn't you throw the basket away? You threw it into the water..."

Shen Ruyi rolled her eyes: "Uncle Dazhuang, I'm fishing! I caught a fish... pull it up quickly... the fish is about to run away!"

Wei Dazhuang was completely confused at the time. Whose kid could catch fish by throwing a basket into the water? Oh! Oh, by the way, she also threw the leftover biscuits into the basket! "

Wei Dazhuang took a closer look and found that indeed, there were several fish in Shen Ruyi's basket. Some of the fish were quite big. The little girl was only six years old, and the fish struggled hard together, so the little girl was pulled into the water by the basket!

Wei Zhendong had walked a few steps to the left. He turned around and yelled, "Ruyi! Wei Dazhuang, are you dead? You can't even take care of a child... Ruyi, don't be afraid..."

Wei Zhendong and Wei Chuang rushed into the water and fished the little girl out in a few moves. The little girl was still holding the rope tightly in her hands. She could swim and was now covered in water but still grinning!

"Hehehe! Uncle, please help me...my big fish is about to escape!"

Wei Chuang and Wei Dazhuang both rushed over and helped Wei Zhendong who was holding the child. Wei Dazhuang grabbed the basket and dragged it out of the water to the halfway point of the mountain!

Wei Zhendong was furious as he held the soaked Shen Ruyi in his arms: "Wei Dazhuang, I asked you to look after a child, but you actually dropped the child into the water! You are not allowed to eat lunch today!"

Wei Dazhuang, holding a bamboo basket full of big fish, began to doubt his life. He was almost thirty years old, and he had never seen anyone fishing like this!
