To ensure safety, everyone tended to choose accommodations in close proximity.
Hua Zhuyue chose a relatively clean courtyard.
There was a well in the courtyard, and Hua Zhuyue tried drawing water from it.
The bucket hit the bottom very quickly after being thrown in, and the bottom of the bucket wasn't wet, so it was obviously dry.
Although she had anticipated this situation, Hua Zhuyue still couldn't help but sigh.
The places we stayed in before were also very dry, but not to the point of being completely without water.
No wonder it became a deserted village.
"Looks like there's no water left. We'll have to make do for tonight."
Several women quickly tidied up the house.
The children also helped out.
Because there was no water, we could only wipe it clean.
Although it's not very clean, it's still better than living outside.
Wan Zhenzhen was exhausted and covered in sweat. She threw down the rag in her hand.
"I'm exhausted! What a day!!"
"It's so hot, I don't even have water to drink. I'm so unlucky."
"So many families came to propose marriage to me back then, why did they choose the Shen family of all people?"
If she hadn't chosen the wrong person, she would still be enjoying a life of luxury in Kyoto right now!
Hua Zhuyue sneered.
"That's because your father hadn't joined the cabinet yet, and your mother died young."
"Your stepmother chose for you either men from noble families whose wives had died or scholars from poor families. You didn't like either of them?"
Back then, Madam Wan thought her eldest son was easy to control.
She used some tricks to bewitch her eldest son, making him insist on marrying her.
The Marquis was a military general who hated dealing with those pretentious scholars.
I find them all pretentious and pretentious, always swaying their heads and chanting classical Chinese phrases, and they love to nag and have a lot of bad intentions.
That's why he gets a headache whenever he sees Wan Zhenzhen; he had always refused to agree to his son's marriage to the Wan family.
However, the eldest son was adamant, and Lady Wan acted submissively, so the Marquis softened and relented.
Wan Zhenzhen felt uncomfortable after being choked by Hua Zhuyue's words, so she simply pulled Shen Yingying up.
"Okay, I understand now."
"Mother, you just hate me and find fault with everything I do. Since that's the case, I won't let Yingying get in your way. Let's go out and find something to eat."
Wan Zhenzhen made a good point, but as soon as she went out, she took Shen Yingying to find a place to relax.
Shen Yingying felt uneasy.
"Mother...didn't you say you were going out to find food?"
Wan Zhenzhen sighed, realizing that her daughter was definitely not like her; she took after her father, being too straightforward.
"What are you looking for to eat? Don't you even use your brain? If there were food here, why would those people have moved away?"
Let alone food, there probably isn't even water.
"I just brought you out to rest for a while."
"Let them pack up if they want. We'll just go back and sleep in the place they already have."
Shen Zhaoning pulled Shen Yu into the empty house next door.
"Brother, I'll go get some water. Could you keep an eye on the people for me?"
Shen Yu nodded.
"Okay, I'll go out and keep watch for you."
After closing the window, Shen Yu went outside and stood guard there.
Shen Zhaoning found the trolley and started running around the house. In a flash of white light, she arrived in the modern world.
She sighed as she thought about how the number of people in the group was increasing and how much more things she would need to buy.
What should we do? How is she going to bring all these things back?
After going through this once or twice, she gave up.
If she keeps doing this every day, won't she be exhausted?
She carried her small cart and walked slowly under the streetlights.
A family of three walked towards us.
The little girl held her parents' hands, jumped up with all her might, and shouted loudly.
"Mom and Dad, I want to eat barbecue tonight."
The woman held the little girl's hand tightly, smiling gently.
"Okay, Mom will order meat now and have it delivered to our house. We'll grill it when we get home."
Shen Zhaoning's ears twitched.
Meat can be delivered to your home.
Family?
If she had a home in this world, could she have the goods delivered to her home by the merchants?
That way, she can use a small cart to slowly move it back.
Not only can it save you effort, it can also save you a lot of time.
Furthermore, you can hide important things here, so you no longer need to ask others to store them for you.
Thinking about it, Shen Zhaoning went to a small supermarket and tried asking the supermarket owner.
"Could you deliver my things to my home?"
The boss nodded.
"Sure, what do you need? Where do you live?"
When Shen Zhaoning heard the boss say yes, her eyes crinkled into a smile.
"No need to deliver it to my door, just take it to the alley ahead."
"I want……"
Shen Zhaoning looked at the dazzling array of goods in the supermarket, as well as stacks of bottled water, and swallowed hard.
"I'll take all this water, and all the rice and vegetables too."
This should be enough for everyone to eat.
"By the way, do you sell beef here?"
The boss shook his head.
"My supermarket is small and doesn't carry beef. You can try the fresh food section next door, but they don't deliver there."
Shen Zhaoning carried a small cart, bought a huge piece of beef, and then returned to the alley to wait for the owner to bring over water and vegetables.
The boss glanced at Shen Zhaoning.
"Are you sure you want to leave it here? Are you sure you don't need me to deliver it to your home?"
Under the boss's concerned gaze, Shen Zhaoning nervously fiddled with the hem of her clothes.
"Yes, my dad... my mom and dad are coming to pick me up in a bit."
After the boss left, Shen Zhaoning became a diligent little bee, carrying these things around.
Upon seeing these things, Hua Zhuyue naturally began to cover for Shen Zhaoning.
"I just told them to send some water over. I thought it would be hard to find in this remote place, but they actually managed to get it."
"The water jug is really strange; you can actually see where the water is going."
Hua Zhuyue picked up a bottle of water and looked at the mineral water in amazement.
After opening it and taking a sip, Hua Zhuyue couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"So sweet!"
Everyone was extremely thirsty, and when they saw water, they all grabbed it and drank it.
After everyone had drunk their fill, Hua Zhuyue finally looked at Xiaoman.
"Xiaoman, go and inform Chief Zhou to come over and have him bring people to fetch water, and find two skilled cooks to help with the cooking."
Xiaoman looked at the green vegetables on the ground and the beef in the packaging bag, and agreed quickly.
They rushed out very quickly.
At this moment, the Zhou clan members were gathered together, sighing and lamenting.
"We've searched the whole village, but there's no water."
"We have food, but how can we cook without water?"
"Or we could just set up the pot and stir-fry it casually; it's better than eating it raw."
Just as Zhou Shouren was about to speak, Xiaoman rushed over.
"Zhou, clan chief... my grandmother asked you to find a few skilled cooks to help with the cooking, and also to fetch the water."
Zhou Shouren was overjoyed.
"Great! I was just worried about not having any water."
"I knew it, following the young master was the right thing to do."
The Zhou clan members went out to fetch water in a large group, which was seen by Wan Zhenzhen, who was sitting to the side. Wan Zhenzhen asked in confusion.
"We're sitting right at the village entrance, why hasn't anyone brought us water?"
