Wang Zhuo thought with a calm face for a while, waved his hand to signal everyone to retreat.

The convoy stopped, fed the horses a little water again, and set off again.

In order to save water, the Wang family did not cook, and only sent some dry food for dinner. As the dry food was distributed, some water was also sent. Due to too many people, each team of ten people only sent a basin of water. In the face of the setting sun, Wang Zhuo stood at the front of the car and said seriously: "Everyone, the remaining water has been sent to you. Before you find the source of water, you should save it."

There was a buzzing sound in the team.

Amid the hustle and bustle, the voice of the seven women of Wang's family was the loudest. She screamed: "Father, how can the water we have allocated to us be as much as everyone else? Are there no distinction between high and low?"

When I spoke out, I was silent all over the place.

Swish, all the guards and servants lowered their heads at the same time. It seemed that everyone was holding their breath, and the air was filled with a sense of condensation and tension.

Wang Zhuo glanced at the tall and brave guards, turned to the seven girls of Wang and shouted sternly: "Shut up! Since we are on the same journey, we have to experience the joys and sorrows. You can't say such words again in the future!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Zhuo met the gratitude and tears of tears as he wished.

How could the seven daughters of Wang be scolded by her father like this? Her little face was long and tears rolled in her eyes. Beside her were brothers and sisters who were whispering to complain endlessly.

At this time, a faint bright moon rose in the eastern sky. The moonlight hung in the gray sky. If you didn’t look closely, you would not be able to find it.

The convoy continued to set off. As the last ray of light faded, the guards lit torches. In the autumn wind, the torches sounded, adding a little vitality to the convoy that was operating at night.

Out of anxiety in my heart, the convoy walked very fast.

Chen Rong sat in the carriage, and there were not many people in her team. Because everyone got her instructions from the beginning, she never wasted except for drinking some water to moisten her throat. So after a day, the water in the bucket was still full.

Therefore, compared to the anxiety outside, the Chen family seemed much more stable and calm.

Time passed by bit by bit, and before I knew it, the convoy had been walking for most of the night, until the moon was in the middle of the sky, everyone still found in despair that they did not see a drop of water along the way!

The Wang family sent the people who explored the way had not come back yet. In desperation, Wang Zhuo had to send someone to ask the nearby commoners where the water source was. Only after this question did he find out that the water source closest to here was also a mountain road of forty miles, and the mountain road was rugged and difficult to walk. Even if the local people were used to walking on the mountain passers-by, it would take two days and one night to carry the water back. Because of this, after the villagers failed to ask for rain, they turned into refugees and moved to the south.

That night, the convoy did not stop. When dawn, the mount, which was so thirsty and exhausted, replenished the water with the little dewdrops on the dead grass by the road. Of course, the members of the Wang family could not drink the dewdrops on the dead grass like beasts.

It was not until the sun rose again and felt something was wrong that the Wang family members drank the parking convoy, rested and thought about the mistakes. At this time, the people they sent to explore the way had not come back.

At noon, the last little water from the Wang family was used up, and everyone began to face endless thirst.

Finally, the eyes of the Wang family's children turned to the Chen family team, which seemed full of energy because they had been replenished.

The sound of horse hooves sounded crisply in Chen Rong's ears.

Pingwu leaned closer to her head and whispered to the carriage: "Girl, the Wang family is here."

"Yeah." The sound from the carriage was still calm and calm.

At this moment, her tone made Ping Yu feel calm.

After a while, Wang Wulang's voice came from outside the carriage, "Arong, come here with a risk, please don't be surprised." His voice was filled with embarrassment.

The curtain of the car was lifted up.

When the Wang family met Chen Rong, their eyes lit up, and they showed jealous and envious eyes. At this time, Chen family Arong still had a clean face and a black hair, and she was not tired of the dust. Compared to her, how could they look like the elegant and elegant noble child in the past?

Chen Rong smiled and met the Wang people. Before she could speak, she said in a voice: "If you don't dislike me, just move this bucket of water. This bucket was used for my bathing in the past and was quite clean. The remaining two buckets are actually servants in the mansion, and they may defile all the noble bodies."

Her voice was very sincere. She knew that the range of this drought was not large, and they could get out of this predicament in a few days. What she needs now is the favorable impression of the Wang family and a good reputation that can be promoted by the scholars.

The Wang family never expected that she would be so happy. When they came, the seventh daughter of Wang family still thought about more than a dozen words of accusing her, scolding her, and forcing her, but these words were not worthy of a single word!

Then Wang Wulang coughed clearly, took the lead in bowing to her and turned his head.

After a while, three servants of the Wang family came. They lifted Chen Rong's bathtub and walked forward.

When the water was lifted to Wang Zhuo, the seven women of Wang's family flattened their mouths and said hatefully: "Father, there is only half a bucket left! Humph, it must be that Chen Rong wasted so much!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Zhuo gave her a fierce look. He shouted in a deep voice: "What are you saying? People are willing to give you water. You are not only unhappy, but also resentful and unsatisfied? When will my Wang family give birth to a daughter like you?"

This is very harsh.

In fact, he had to scold. The seventh girl of Wang's voice was quite loud, and there were many people around him.

The seventh daughter of Wang never expected to be scolded by her father like this again. And this time, the disgust in her father's tone was something she had never heard before. At this moment, tears flowed in her eyes and she sucked heavily. The seventh daughter of Wang pulled up the curtain of the carriage and shrank into the carriage. After a while, a whimpering sound came from the carriage.

A middle-aged man advised: "Yona is young, and what she says cannot be true."

Wang Zhuo shouted heavily: "She is as big as Chen Arong, why is she young? Arong is so well advanced and retreated?"

He drank here, sighed, closed his eyes, and said, "Please come over Arong, hey."

When the Wang family came to invite Chen Rong, Chen Rong did not delay and immediately followed behind.

From afar, she was still in the carriage and called out with great respect to Wang Zhuoyingying, "Chen Rong has seen the prince."

Her expression and her tone were very respectful, and this respect was even better than the previous two days.

Seeing this, Wang Zhuo's frown unconsciously stretched out. He waved at her kindly and called out, "Arong comes closer."

"yes."

"Arong, my uncle asked you, how did you expect this drought? Why did you so decisively put people in water and wet the satin? Is there any god who reminds you that such a change occurred in this trip?"

When Wang Zhuo mentioned the word "God", he emphasized his tone and added a little hope to Chen Rong's eyes without realizing it.

Chen Rong understood his hopes, and she immediately felt blessed, lowered her head, and said respectfully: "Uncle expected it is not bad."

As soon as the six characters came out, Wang Zhuo's eyes lit up, and the whispers around him became quiet.

Chen Rong was well-behaved and said respectfully: "When Chen Rong first entered this state, he dreamed of an old man with white hair facing the cracked field. The next day, I heard the brothers of the Wang family say that there was too little water in the field, and suddenly remembered this dream, and then reported it to the prince."

Wang Zhuo nodded and sighed, "It turns out that the heaven is really warning. I am just blaming me, not believing in ghosts and gods." In this era, Confucianism is being broken by the world, Taoism and Buddhism are rampant, but not believing in ghosts and gods, and there are still remnants among the people. Wang Zhuo used the sentence "Don't believe in ghosts and gods" to conceal his mistakes, which was to erase his big mistakes that he did not accept good words.

At this moment, not only Wang Zhuo, but also the Wang family's children, all looked at Chen Rong with a good impression. Not only did she decisively admit that the ghosts and gods were warned, but she also mentioned that the teenagers of the Wang family had long discovered drought. In this way, even if people talked about it, they would only say that they were too rash.

Wang Zhuo reached out to stroke his beard. After he got the answer he wanted, he waved his hand and signaled Chen Rong to retreat.

Chen Rong's carriage had just taken a few steps when he suddenly remembered something and asked again: "Arong, I wonder if the old man in your dream pointed out that how many days will the drought be resolved?" After asking such a big talk about worrying about the country and the people, he mentioned what he really wanted to ask, "We have to walk for a few more days before we can get rid of it?"

Chen Rong signaled the carriage to return, she saluted, shook her head, and replied respectfully: "This, Chen Rong doesn't know." In Wang Zhuo's disappointed expression, she said indecisively: "It won't take long, right?"

"I hope so, let go."

"yes."

Wang Zhuo looked at the carriage that Chen Rong gradually retreated, reached out to stroke his long beard, and suddenly said, "This Chen Rong is good, worthy of my Wang family!" (To be continued)
