The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby

Yu Shi and others were also a little worried when they saw this situation.

Yu Ruyue walked to the deep well and took a look, wondering in her heart, is this place really not good?

She was a little unconvinced, so she turned to look at Shen Zhiheng, "Send me down, I'll go see what's going on first."

Shen Zhiheng quickly refused, "No! I'll go next."

The officials nearby hurriedly stopped him, "General Shen, you can't go down in person. You are the pillar of our stability. If something happens to you, the peaceful days we have worked so hard to achieve will be over."

"That's right! And doesn't this Miss Yu claim to have the ability to move mountains and fill the sea? There shouldn't be any problems if she goes down."

Shen Zhiheng turned around and glared at the two people who were talking. If these people were not sent by the Duke of Huguo and Qin Guoan, he really wanted to kill them.

Those people knew the relationship between Shen Zhiheng and Yu Ruyue, so they didn't dare to say anything more and quickly shut their mouths.

Yu Ruyue thought for a moment and said, "Jingyue! Go down with that butterfly thorn!"

The butterfly spur is a bit like the Luoyang shovel used by tomb robbers. As long as you dig it into the ground, the soil underneath will be brought out.

Yu Ruyue wanted to see if the soil further down would be the same dry as above?

If this is the case, move forward and find another place.

Anyway, as long as we find a water source before the sun sets.

After Jingyue went down, the restlessness of the people above had reached its peak.

"Women should stay in the backyard. Why would she show herself out in public? Besides, she's so pretty, she must not have any real talent or skills, and she might have used some dirty tricks."

"I think so too. She just looks like a foxy girl. What kind of powerful kung fu can she possess?"

"Humph! As expected! Women are always a drag. If I had known this, I shouldn't have let that money-losing girl go yesterday. I should have eaten her earlier and she wouldn't have died of starvation."

Yu Ruyue felt as if a ball of cotton was stuffed in her heart as she listened to the people behind her disparaging the woman.

Although she stood up out of selfish motives to protect her family, she also felt sorry for the people who were struggling in this chaotic world.

But she didn't expect that because she took the lead in doing this, these people would escalate the situation to the entire female group, and even start the old routine of spreading pornographic rumors...

She didn't dare to think about how difficult life would be for the women here in the future if she didn't get the water out today...

However, there shouldn't be many women left. Along the way, she saw many skeletons thrown around casually. Judging from the size of the skeletons, they were either children or women.

How many women have sacrificed their lives to keep their husbands and children alive? Yet, in the eyes of these people, this is just what they deserve...

Yu Ruyue felt uncomfortable and even a little confused. Apart from completing the task assigned to her by Hei Wuchang, what else could she do for this world and for women?

When she was extremely confused, a cry suddenly came from the well behind her.

"Miss! The water's coming out."

“It’s out of the water!”

The officer guarding the well stretched his neck to look down and found that the originally dry well had actually begun to overflow!

The men digging the well immediately shouted, "Good men! Come up quickly!"

Jingyue looked at the hole from which water continued to gush out, and his heart became more and more excited. After all, he had not let down his young lady's instructions, nor had he let down the expectations of all the people. There really was water in that place.

He took the butterfly spike again and thrust it down hard. He watched the water cover his feet, and his heart, which had been silent for a long time, began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Finally out of the water."

After he quickly climbed up the rope, everyone's eyes were focused on his wet shoes.

"Did you see that? His shoes are covered in water stains!"

"Oh my god, there's actually water down there."

"Oh my God, we are saved."

Yu Ruyue had known for a long time that she would have to get water for them today, but when she actually saw the well continuously gushing out water, her heart was filled with excitement.

There was even some heat in the corners of my eyes!

The people, who had been thirsty for a long time and had blurry eyes, wanted to rush over to drink some water, but were quickly stopped by Shen Zhiheng and the officials.

"Fellow villagers, since water has already been found, there is no need to rush. Wait for the well digger to enlarge the outlet below. More water will come out, and everyone will be able to drink water faster."

"So be patient."

Although everyone was desperate for water, if you listen carefully you will realize that since you have been waiting for so long, a little longer won't make any difference.

So everyone stood in place, and all eyes were focused on the wellhead.

Just as the six well diggers controlled the drill bit, smashed it into the well again, and then pulled it out, suddenly a stream of water spurted out of the well and splashed on the faces of the people next to them.

Everyone looked at the water gushing out and cheered loudly.

"That's great! God has mercy on us. There is water at last. We are finally saved."

There were also many people hugging each other and crying.

"Finally, there's water! Finally, we don't have to die."

Shen Zhiheng felt a little distressed when he saw the overflowing water being quickly absorbed by the dry soil nearby.

This is his Ruyue, the water he worked so hard to get, he can't waste it...

So he immediately directed the people around him to quickly organize the team behind him, and then asked them to line up one by one and go to the front to drink a sip of water.

When everyone heard this, they knew they could drink water immediately and they immediately followed the instructions obediently.

When the first refugee walked to the well and looked at the still muddy water, tears instantly flowed down his face. He seemed to see his dead wife, children and elders in the reflection of the water. He and his family had escaped seven days ago and thought they finally had a way to survive, but they did not die under the knives of bandits and rebel soldiers, nor died of illness, but died at the mouths of their own kind!

He stretched out his cracked hands, tremblingly scooped up a mouthful of well water, and then drank it in big gulps.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he took handful after handful. Finally, it wasn't blood...

Yu Ruyue urged loudly, "You haven't had any water in a long time. Don't drink too much at the beginning, otherwise it will cost you your lives."

At this time, the second person couldn't wait to push the person in front aside and said, "Get out of the way, you old fool."

The first person was pushed away violently and almost fell into the well. If the official beside him had not supported him, he would have become the first person to drown in the year of drought.

The second person, however, showed no remorse at all and even cursed, "Stop wasting time! If you don't want to drink, get out now."

After he finished speaking, he plunged his head into the water and drank in big gulps.

Yu Ruyue still advised, "Don't drink too much, otherwise it will cost you your lives."

After the man drank his fill, he glared at Yu Ruyue fiercely, "How can you have the right to speak? Do you really think that finding water makes you superior? You are nothing but a money-loser. If you marry into my family, I will eat you first."

He wiped his mouth and said defiantly, "I just drank too much. What can you do to me? This is what God wants to give us. What does it have to do with a bitch like you? She's so tender and delicate, she can be cooked in two fires!"
