After checking the quantity, Si Si decided to temporarily purchase the goods. There was still a lot of inventory. When Qi Mohan needed it, she would send it to him.

After arranging these things, Si Si sat and waited for the supplier to deliver the goods. When she was free, she returned to the top floor.

After playing with the two little kids for a while, Si Si turned on the computer.

She collected a lot of knowledge about planting on the Internet and printed it out for future use.

There were also some manual farming tools. Although they were not as advanced as the machines used by modern people, they were still much more convenient than those in the Daqi Kingdom.

Si Si patiently drew the drawings one by one and placed them neatly on the desk, waiting to be given to Qi Mohan when needed.

She had just finished work when suppliers called to tell Si Si that the goods had been delivered.

Si Si opened the rolling shutter door of the supermarket and arranged for them to deliver the goods to the supermarket.

It wasn’t until after nine o’clock in the evening that she sent away the last supplier.

Si Si walked back to the top floor with tired steps, and the two little ones were still there.

She asked curiously: “Why are you still here?”

The answer this time was said by the brother and sister in unison: “Sister, it’s raining where we are.”

Si Si asked in surprise: “Really?”

“Yes, sister. Grandma asked us to come immediately and tell you the good news.”

Si Si was truly happy for the people of Qiushui City. When it rained, it meant that the disaster was about to end.

At the same time, she also knew that the food she provided to Qi Mohan had an expiration date.

She wanted the people there to farm enough, and when they harvest, she didn’t have to worry about where to get food.

But before that, she would probably be busy.

In Qiushui City, a long drought brings dew.

The people were completely excited. They all wanted to sleep on the ground. Regardless of whether men, women, old or young, they all stood outside to collect rainwater with their copper basins, buckets, and other tools.

Everyone cheered and jumped to welcome the long-awaited rain.

In a hidden mountain valley five miles away from Qiushui City, it was watered by heavy rain just like the inside of Qiushui City.

This used to be a small village. The villagers fled more than two years ago because of the severe drought.

Although people were living here now, they were not the aborigines.

It was the group of officials and their family members who escaped with the money from Qiushui City’s public accounts.

Qiao Zhenwu, who was once the governor of Qiushui City, took the most people with him when he fled.

In addition to his family members, there were also his brother-in-law Si Chaoqun and his family of three.

In recent days, Qiao Zhenwu knew why, he was always in a bad mood.

He even had a good premonition that His Highness Prince Rong would find this place sooner or later.

The more he thought about it, the more Qiao Zhenwu became more tense, especially since it started to rain outside today. This should have been an exciting thing, but instead, he became unhappy no matter what.

When it rains, it signals that the drought is about to end.

He felt lucky when they betrayed Prince Rong and fled with most of Qiushui City’s belongings.

Qiao Zhenwu with three other officials, also had the same understanding. The drought lasted for more than two years and had never been so severe since ancient times.

They once thought that if Prince Rong could no longer hold it, he would abandon the people of Qiushui City and flee alone, and those people would even stay there waiting to die.

When a peaceful time comes, the court will convict Prince Rong of leaving his post without permission, and they will not have to worry about Prince Rong coming to their door in the future.

However, the drought lasted for more than two years. Not only did His Highness Prince Rong not leave Qiushui City, but not even the people there came out to flee.

This situation was unexpected for these people. To find out the situation, they had already sent people to inquire around Qiushui City.

The result he brought back was that His Highness Prince Rong spent all his money to buy grain at high prices and feed the people for more than two years.

Not long after, they found out that Qiushui City had been completely cut off from water and food, and the people and Prince Rong were only waiting to die.

They felt at ease.

Only when Prince Rong died, they could escape completely.

Unexpectedly, God was unwilling to help them. After such a long drought, it rained heavily today.

Once there is water in Qiushui City and the vegetation recovers, those who eat wild vegetables can still survive for a while.

After Qiao Zhenwu had dinner, he went to Si Chaoqun’s place.

When he fled, the reason why he didn’t abandon his brother-in-law was not because he had a deep love for his wife, but because Si Chaoqun had the most clever ideas. When he was in Qiushui City, many of the things he did were his idea.

Even this time he was absconding with several other officials, Si Chaoqun did not fail to bewitch him.

Now that things have reached this juncture, Qiao Zhenwu went to Si Chaoqun and asked him if he had any solution.

In the small courtyard where Si Chaoqun’s family of three lives.

At this time, the lights in the west room were on, and there was a boy who looked about 6 years old with delicate features lying on the bed. Si Chaoqun and Luo Xuehua, the couple, stared at the boy on the bed with his eyes closed in a daze.

After a long time, Luo Xuehua slowly said: “Husband, although this child is our not biological child, we have taken over the bodies of his parents. We can’t watch him die. After all, this is a life!”

Si Chaoqun sighed: “We are new here, and there is a drought in this place where birds don’t even shit. Except for these few households, there is no one around, let alone a doctor.”

Luo Xuehua touched the boy’s hot forehead in distress: “From my experience, this child’s fever is at least 39 degrees Celsius. If it continues like this, he will be burned to death.”

Si Chaoqun thought for a moment as if he remembered something.

“Honey, I remember when Si Si was a child when we took her back to her hometown, she developed a high fever in the middle of the night. You asked your neighbor for some high-strength liquor to help reduce her fever by physically cooling her body.”

Hearing what Si Chaoqun said, Luo Xuehua’s eyes lit up: “Look at me, how could I forget this matter? Husband, why don’t you go to your cheap sister’s house?”

They don’t have liquor here. Apart from a little food, this home can be described as a bare house.

Si Chaoqun had a headache when she mentioned that cheap sister.

In the memory he received, as soon as his cheap sister saw him, she would tell him which aunt’s yard Qiao Zhenwu went to last night, and ask him to help find a way to get Qiao Zhenwu to come to her place.

Not to mention Si Chaoqun, even the scheming original owner would be very troubled when encountering this kind of thing.

Si Chaoqun suddenly felt dizzy at the thought of being pulled into such a conversation again.
