The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords
Chapter 304 Shelter from the Rain
Cangyue Kingdom Wucheng Land God Temple
Seeing the dark clouds approaching, indicating that heavy rain was coming, Bicheng shouted, "Everyone check the tents again. This courtyard wall is not very windproof. Be careful that the tents will be blown away."
"Yes" everyone said in unison.
"It will definitely work." Ye Ling waved his hand. "You don't need to send anyone on guard. I asked my junior brother to place the mother and child bells around the area. Look, the mother bell is on me. Once there is a large living creature moving within a radius of 300 meters, the mother bell will immediately sound the alarm. Everyone has been tired in the past few days, so let's get some rest."
"Thank you so much." Bicheng wanted to give Ye Ling a hug: "With you here, we feel safe."
"Cousin" Mu Mengruo walked into the cooking awning with a smile: "Can I help? I can have a bowl of rice by the way."
"No problem," Ye Ling replied with a smile. She hated Leng Yan, but that didn't mean she didn't like Mu Mengruo.
"Thank you, cousin." Mu Mengruo was very happy and hurried to help pick up the vegetables.
"Wow~Wow~" Two crying sounds came from Fang Shu's carriage.
"Master Gu has woken up," Fang Shu quickly wiped her hands.
"Wait." Ye Ling raised his hand, then walked towards the carriage with a smile: "I'll take care of the child."
In the carriage, Gu Enze was crying like a pear blossom in the rain, but when she saw Ye Ling, she immediately became alert and stopped crying.
Ye Ling smiled gently: "Hello, baby, I'm Sister Ye, can I hold you?"
Gu Enze was slightly stunned, and then burst into tears: "Wow~Wow~"
Frightened, Ye Ling quickly got off the carriage: "Hurry, hurry, he...he is not listening, Fang Shu."
Everyone present was trying to hold back their laughter. Fang Shu quickly wiped her hands and got on the carriage. In an instant, Gu Enze quieted down.
Ye Ling shook his head: "The child is too deadly, so scary!"
As she was speaking, Fang Shu got off the carriage holding the child.
Bicheng stepped forward and said, "Enze, can I hold you? Let Sister Fangshu go cook."
Gu Enze immediately opened his arms, hugged Bicheng's neck, and obediently let him hold him.
Ye Ling looked unconvinced: "Enze, right? I'm also a good person, a very good person. Can I let my sister hold you?"
Gu Enze was not very willing and held Bicheng's hand even tighter.
Bicheng said, "This child is terrified. He lost all his relatives overnight."
Ye Ling nodded: "It's understandable."
Bicheng looked at the child in his arms: "Enze, this is Sister Ye. She saved us last night. She is my brother's best friend. Sister Ye will walk with us on the rest of the journey and will protect Enze. Can you let her hold you, please?"
Ye Ling immediately took out some candy: "Look, I have some candy here, I'll give it to you."
After some thought, Gu Enze, perhaps remembering what happened last night, or perhaps for the sake of Tang, finally agreed to let Ye Ling hug him.
Ye Ling took the child in her arms as if he had found a treasure: "Enze is so good, can he speak now?"
"He should have, but maybe... he was scared. He didn't say a word from beginning to end," Bicheng replied.
"Under normal circumstances, children will start speaking at around one year old. Now he is over two years old. Enze, can you call me daddy?" Ye Ling asked softly.
Gu Enze just ate his candy and ignored him.
"Cousin, the dishes are ready and you can start cooking," said Mu Mengruo.
"Here it comes." Ye Ling handed the child to Bicheng and returned to the cooking awning to start stir-frying the stew. At this moment, it had started raining outside. The raindrops were the largest, hitting the awning, which sounded scary.
Jiuyou walked over to Ye Ling and whispered, "Senior Sister, these buns have been in the space for more than half a year, right? Will there be any problems if I eat them?"
Ye Ling also whispered back, "Don't worry, I'm keeping it in the freezer. It'll be fine. The space has the ability to discern. If food is expired and can't be eaten, it will automatically dispose of it. This time, we're just getting rid of the steamed buns. We'll restock when we get back to Yunzhou."
Jiuyou said no more and started taking basins out of the box.
After a while, the rice was cooked and the rain got heavier. It was a blessing to be able to eat hot dishes and steamed buns in such an environment.
Each tent in Langya Pavilion was served with two or three dishes and two steamed buns per person, and the food tasted so delicious.
Leng Yan's people could only watch as they ate the dry food they brought with them, which was cold.
Mu Mengruo had a hot soup and rice, and asked Ye Ling if she could help with cooking tomorrow night. Ye Ling gladly accepted, as it was just one more mouth to feed.
While eating, Ye Ling thought of someone: "Cousin, where is your cousin? Why didn't she come today?"
"I don't know, she said she wasn't feeling well," Mu Mengruo replied.
Ye Ling glanced at Jiu You and smiled slightly: "Not feeling well? Then you need to have a good rest."
Jiuyou was stunned by this look: "Senior Sister, are you...are you full?"
"I'm eating right now, not quite full yet," Ye Ling replied with a smile.
"Then eat more," Jiuyou quickly picked up some dishes.
After dinner, it rained heavily. Ye Ling looked at the heavy rain outside the tent, feeling a little uneasy. "It's raining so hard, I hope nothing bad happens."
Suddenly, the mother bell vibrated slightly. Ye Ling's face changed and he stood up: "Something is approaching nearby."
Everyone suddenly became nervous, and Bicheng immediately left in the rain using Qinggong.
A moment later, Bicheng returned, followed by a carriage.
Zhuang Yi spoke immediately: "What's going on?"
"We are on the road and have missed our destination. Two of us have no martial arts skills and one has average martial arts skills," Bicheng replied.
The carriage entered the yard, with only a tiny space at the entrance, so they reluctantly stopped. The two drivers hurriedly unloaded the carriage and then built a simple shed to barely shelter from the rain. The person inside the carriage never showed up, but he didn't dare come out in such heavy rain.
The yard soon returned to silence. The night was very dark today, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you. The heavy rain mixed with the wind sounded scary. The only good thing was that it was not cold. You didn't feel frozen at all, and it was even a little cool and comfortable.
Ye Ling did not sleep in the carriage. Instead, she took out a double bed and slept on the same bed with Jiuyou. She liked the feeling of falling asleep listening to the sound of wind and rain.
The next morning, Ye Ling was awakened by a scream. She suddenly stood up and asked, "Jiuyou, what happened?"
Jiuyou had already gotten up. He glanced out the window of the tent and said, "The sound came from the main hall."
"Oh!" Ye Ling felt relieved when she heard that, as long as it wasn't Fang Shu's carriage, she would be fine. She put on her clothes slowly and went out with an umbrella. It was still raining heavily outside, and it seemed that she couldn't set off today.
In the main hall, Mu Mengruo was trembling with fear. Seeing Ye Ling enter, she hugged his arm and said, "Cousin... die... someone is dead."
Leng Yan came out from behind the statue and said, "Looks like he's been dead for two or three years. He's just turned into bones."
Ye Ling also went forward to take a look. There was a skeleton behind the statue. "No wonder the house smells so bad. It turns out there's a dead person."
"We lived with the dead last night." Mu Mengruo was unwilling to accept it: "I want to leave here, leave immediately, husband, cousin, let's go!"
"The rain is too heavy, we can't walk," Leng Yan said.
Mu Mengruo cried and shook her head: "I don't want to live in this room anymore, no, absolutely not. Cousin, can you take me in for a day?"
Ye Ling was helpless: "Well, there's a little open space in front of the main hall. I have a small tent there. You can set it up and stay there for a day."
"Okay, sure." Mu Mengruo agreed immediately. As long as she didn't live in this main hall, any other place would be fine.
Ye Ling turned and left, returned to his tent and took out a small tent: "Fortunately, I bought a lot of this stuff, otherwise it really wouldn't be enough."
Leng Yan sent someone to take the tent away, set it up in the rain, and let Mu Mengruo and Liu Nan move in with their maids. The rest of the Leng family still lived in the main hall. There was no other way. It was better than standing in the rain. Besides, they were all grown men who had traveled all over the country. Their skeletons could not be scared away.
Ye Ling had the three stoves in the cooking awning lit up, and took out a lot of meat buns and rice from the space: "Bicheng, come in, ask Fang Shu to make some porridge. We will have pork buns and white rice porridge for lunch."
Bicheng was no longer surprised by Ye Ling's sudden arrival of supplies. He immediately called someone in to move the buns and volunteered, "I can also cook porridge. I always eat Miss Ye's dishes, so I'll make the porridge for lunch today."
"Okay, we'll see. But don't disturb me before noon. I need to take a nap."
"No problem, I won't bother you."
After Bicheng left, Ye Ling immediately went to bed and started her nap.
Jiuyou walked in: "Senior Sister, why did you go to bed again?"
"Junior brother! The adults have taught us since we were little that the best time to sleep on rainy days is so I must be obedient."
Jiuyou smiled helplessly: "Then you can sleep peacefully. It's raining so hard anyway, and there's nothing else to do. By the way, have you dealt with the buns again?"
"Yes, take out almost all of it. This was also made by Qianqing in Langya Pavilion half a year ago. It has been kept for too long, so eat it quickly," Ye Ling said with his eyes closed.
Jiuyou sat down beside the bed: "Senior Sister, will there be any problems if I eat it? For example, will I have diarrhea? This is a critical moment. It would be bad if I knocked them all down."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine, and I won't have diarrhea. Either you come up and sleep with me, or you don't say anything."
"It's broad daylight, I...I want to go into the space to practice..."
"Okay." Before Jiuyou could finish his words, Ye Ling sent him into the space.
Jiuyou went to the freezer first to check: "There are really not many buns and steamed buns left."
"Jiuyou, don't question my storage anymore. There will be no problem with the steamed buns and dumplings," Mengmeng flew over and said.
"You'd better promise yourself. If anything happens later, senior sister won't let you go." Jiuyou said and walked towards the training room.
Meng Meng flew to catch up: "This is my space and I have the final say. No problem means no problem."
"Shut up, I'm going to practice." Jiuyou didn't want to listen.
"Hmph!" Meng Meng pouted. "I hold a grudge, Jiuyou. Just wait, I'll definitely let you know how powerful this space is."
Jiuyou ignored him, took off his coat and started practicing sword.
The others were also very relaxed. Youminglang sat in the carriage, covered with a thin blanket, reading a book while enjoying the rain.
Leng Yan stood at the entrance of the main hall, looked at Ye Ling's tent and said, "Are you sure they stayed in the same tent last night?"
"Sure," Taihao confirmed.
After a long period of cold words, he muttered, "That's not decent."
