Volume Two, Jiangnan Rain, Chapter 22, Weather and Phenology

Fan Shaoyou looked deep in the forest with a cold light flashing in his eyes. He stretched out his hand to hug Xiao Lian tightly. He felt her body trembling and love in his heart. Seeing the heavy rain, he reached out and picked up Xiao Lian horizontally, jumped up, and ran down the mountain.

The rain turned into cloudy and rainy, and the rain fell until evening. The sky was dark and dark. It seemed that the rain was in full swing, and I don’t know how long it would take.

The people of Suzhou were immersed in joy, and every household was decorated with lights and joy.

Fan Mansion.

There are lights outside the door and a banquet is being held in the mansion.

Fan Wanjia twisted his beard and sat high in the hall. Mrs. Fan, Fan Xinying, Fan Shaoyou, and Ming Bo, sat together, and they were all happy and smiling. The lower class were all happy, with light steps, and kept serving dishes and pouring wine.

Fan Wanjia smiled and said, "Mr. Ah, you showed your face this time and showed off your limelight. You have won glory for our old Fan family. Dad is so happy."

Fan Shaoyou laughed and said, "Dad, I wonder if there is any reward for my child who has made such a great contribution?"

Fan Wanjia snorted: "You bastard, you are bold and arrogant, which makes your father frightened and worried. I've been sweating for you. Do you still have the face to reward me?"

Fan Shaoyou smiled and said, "Dad, you give me 30,000 taels, I earned 30,000 taels, and I will pay you 40,000 taels with capital and profit. The rest belongs to me."

Fan Xinying smiled and said, "Dad, I promised to make three-point profits for three days. Now, in less than three days, Mr. Ah will pay back the principal and profits, and it exceeds three-point interest. Are you not happy?"

Fan Wanjia snorted, stared at Fan Shaoyou and said, "Say, how did you know it will rain today?"

Everyone wants to ask about this sentence, and everyone stares at Fan Shaoyou to see what he says.

Fan Shaoyou held a big bone and gnawed it in big mouths, saying, "Dad, my child has been away from home since childhood, learned magic, calling the wind and rain, and moving mountains and seas. It's no problem, it's a little bit."

Fan Wanjia glared and snorted: "You kid, why don't you explain honestly?"

Fan Shaoyou laughed and said, "Dad, the child has said that I can call the wind and rain, why don't you believe it?"

The man from Fan smiled and said, "Young Master, just answer your father's question honestly. Mom also wants to know how you know it will rain today, so just tell me honestly and listen to it."

Fan Xinying smiled and said, "That's right, Mr. Ah, please finish your words, we all want to know."

Fan Shaoyou put away his hippie smile and said with a smile: "Dad, mother, sister, Uncle Ming, it is fake for me to call the wind and rain, but it is true that I can calculate and calculate. I calculate that there will be rain this afternoon, and it will last for several days. The drought in Suzhou City can be resolved."

Ming Bo smiled and said, "Young Master, how did you calculate it?"

Fan Shaoyou smiled and said, "Observe the phenology, know the celestial phenomena, understand the yin and yang, and know the time of the heaven."

Everyone was puzzled and looked at each other. Fan Wanjia snorted, "Boy, speak human words!"

Fan Shaoyou smiled and said, "Ant."

Everyone was stunned and looked at Fan Shaoyou.

Fan Shaoyou picked up the wine glass in front of him, drank it all, put it down, and smiled and said, "It will rain when the ant moves, and it will rain; it will be sunny and the wind will suddenly turn heavy rain."

Xiao Lian thought about it and immediately thought of Fan Shaoyou watching ants fight every day. He smiled and stepped forward to pour wine for Fan Shaoyou.

Everyone suddenly realized and smiled together.

Fan Wanjia glared and said, "It turns out that you are watching ants fight every day. It turns out that you are calculating when the rain will come. I thought you were a plaything and lost your ambition and did not do your job properly."

Fan Shaoyou laughed and said, "Dad, I really like playing with ants and crickets..."

Fan Wanjia said angrily: "I'm talking nonsense again. Let's read a good book for me, prepare for the autumn exam, and win the top scorer."

Fan Shaoyou smiled and said, "Yes, dad, I know, but you can still play. This is called a combination of work and rest. Sharpening a knife will not delay chopping wood..."

Fan Wanjia's face darkened, and Mrs. Fan smiled and said, "Young Master, you are not serious at all, and you insist on making your father angry. Can't you listen to your father well? What a pair of enemies."

At this moment, a servant hurried in and said anxiously: "Master, Suzhou Prefect Lin is here, and he has arrived outside the gate..."

The whole room was shocked, except for Fan Shaoyou, he was also eating and drinking.

Fan Wanjia hurriedly stood up and said, "Why did the magistrate come suddenly? Uncle Ming, come with me to greet him!" After that, he walked out and made his clothes while walking.

Ming Bo agreed, hurriedly got up, followed Fan Wanjia out hurriedly.

Fan Xinying looked at Mrs. Fan and said, "Mom, why did the prefect suddenly come to our house? What's going on?"

Mrs. Fan frowned and looked at Fan Shaoyou.

Fan Xinying thought and said in a lost voice: "Mom, are you saying that the prefect came for the sake of A Shao asking for rain?"

Mrs. Fan nodded slowly and said in a deep voice: "People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Young Master A is already a celebrity in Suzhou City at this moment. The prefect Lin must have come to Young Master A, but I don't know whether this is a good or a bad thing, alas." After that, he sighed softly.

Fan Shaoyou smiled and said, "Mom, that Lord Lin may not be coming to me, you have a lot of concerns. Besides, I am a celebrity in the city, not from today. Sister, do you think so?"

Fan Xinying smiled and said, "Yes, my brother is a celebrity, everyone loves him, and flowers bloom when they see him."

Fan Shaoyou smiled and said, "It's true! This young master is handsome, elegant and handsome, and a celebrity. Who doesn't know who doesn't know? You don't even look at it. I'm born to my mother. My mother is a great beauty, and my son is naturally a beautiful man. Is there any mistake?"

Fan Xinying chuckled, "Blow, then blow, I have never seen someone as thick-skinned as you."

Mrs. Fan smiled and said, "You child is neither old nor young, so good, why do you even talk about your mother?"

Fan Shaoyou smiled and said, "Mom, Dad is gone, let's have a good meal, eat and drink enough, and go to bed!"

At this moment, Uncle Ming hurried in and said in a deep voice: "Madam, Lord Lin wants to see the young master. The master asked the old slave to come and invite the young master over..."

Fan Shaoyou frowned and snorted.

Fan Xinying was stunned and said anxiously: "Mom, you are right. That Lord Lin really came to Mr. Ah!"

Mrs. Fan's eyes flashed and a worried look on her face. She nodded, looked at Fan Shaoyou, and said in a deep voice: "Sister, since the magistrate wants to see you, just go and speak well, don't be rude."
