Jiu Zhang Ji: The Daily Life of the Reborn Daughter

Chapter 101: The Fairy Lady's Fairy Daughter-in-law

When Qiao Lili woke up again, it was already the end of the morning hour of the next day.

Cai Qi and Cai Xing, who had been watching over her, saw her wake up and hurried over to ask, "Miss, how do you feel?"

"Would you like some water?"

Qiao Lili just felt her throat dry and nodded.

Caiqi helped her up, Caixing brought water and fed Qiao Lili half a cup.

"What's the water level now?" This is what Qiao Lili is most concerned about.

"Come back quickly at the end of Mao time to report to His Highness that we have descended to within the safety line. The adults on the levee have also taken turns to come down to rest." Cai Qi didn't understand what safety or lines were, but she remembered what to say quickly.

"Where is your highness?"

"Your Highness has gone to Dunhua Ancient City to discuss the resettlement of the villagers of Huaijiang Beach with the government office." Cai Qi brought out a coat and put it on Qiao Lili. "Your men's clothes are all wet. You can be a lady today."

In order to save the ancient city of Dunhua, they lost their homes. Indeed, the ancient city of Dunhua should provide them with a good place to stay.

"When His Highness left, he told you to take a good rest and not to go out. He would come back at noon to have lunch with you. If he found out that you went out, he said he would not forgive you."

Caiqi and Caixing didn't want her to go out, so they learned every word clearly.

Can't forgive her, spank her? That won't work, just stay here obediently. Although she still wanted to see what Huaijiang Beach looked like now.

I went to the bed and saw that the rain was still falling slowly. Although it didn't stop, it didn't get heavier either.

Qiao Lili was thinking about something, and it was not until Caiqi served breakfast that she realized that this was not the Danlu Village where they lived before. But this house seemed familiar. When she saw that the food in the bowl was soup, she remembered that this was Erniu's house in Shijia Village. She had changed clothes and had meals in this wing room.

"How did I get here?" Qiao Lili asked. She knew nothing about what happened after she fainted.

"Because Shijia Village is the closest to where you fainted, the village head of Shijia Village said that the village doctor in their village is very skilled, so Your Highness brought you here. We were also on the embankment at the time, so we followed along."

"The village doctor said you were tired and overthinking. You'll be fine if you get enough rest and sleep. He only gave you a few injections and didn't prescribe any medicine."

Qiao Lili thought that this village doctor was indeed good at medicine, and that was the case with her body. After several months of training, and the pills that Feng Shen doctor had given her intentionally or unintentionally, her body was already in very good condition, otherwise, she would not have been able to last that long.

I feel hungry after a good sleep. The last meal I had was yesterday's lunch, which is ten hours ago. There were two eggs in a bowl of soup, and not even a drop of soup was left.

Caiqi and Caixing looked at each other. They had been serving the young lady for several months and had never seen the young lady have such a good appetite. This soup must have a secret recipe. The two decided to spend money to buy the secret recipe so that they could make it for the young lady when they returned home.

Qiao Lili didn’t know what they were thinking. If she knew, she would definitely tell them. Isn’t it because you young lady am hungry?

When you are hungry, bran tastes as sweet as honey, but when you are not hungry, honey doesn’t taste sweet either. This reminds me of the legend of the famous Pearl Jade White Jade Soup.

After eating, Qiao Lili felt sleepy again. She wanted to sleep for a while and told Caiqi and Caixing not to keep an eye on her and to go to bed as they must have been very tired from the journey.

Caiqi and Caixing agreed with their mouths, but they were willing to take turns sitting back and closing their eyes. When His Highness came back a while later, he would be shocked to see that both the master and the servants were asleep.

Yu Jingyan still failed to make it back in time for lunch, but fortunately Qiao Lili was asleep the whole time, so he was not worried.

At the beginning of the afternoon, Yu Jingyan, covered in rain, entered the east wing where Qiao Lili was resting. Qiao Lili seemed to sense something and opened her eyes at the same time.

Yu Jingyan took off his raincoat and walked to the bedside. Seeing Qiao Lili still lying there, he asked, "Ali, how do you feel?" He then asked Caiqi and Caixing who were standing next to him, "You haven't woken up yet?"

Qiao Lili sat up by herself, looked at Yu Jingyan's worried expression, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm fine. I had breakfast and went back to sleep. Have you had lunch?"

"Not yet, I'm in a hurry to come back." On the embankment that day, there were also water officials from the Dunhua Ancient City government office. They knew how critical the situation was. Dunhua Ancient City treated Yu Jingyan as a lifesaver, so how could they not invite him to have lunch? He was thinking about Qiao Lili and wanted to come back quickly.

At that time, the government office of Dunhua Ancient City was already mobilizing residents to evacuate, but no one was willing to listen to him. Some said that they had lived in Dunhua Ancient City for generations and vowed to live and die with the ancient city. Some said that the big Buddha on Jiuding Mountain would protect them and they were not worried at all.

The prefect was so anxious that he wanted to kneel down in front of them, but it was useless. Almost all the young and middle-aged men were forced to make and carry stone sacks. The sacks were piled up high outside the ancient city of Dunhua, as if they wanted to block the flood outside the ancient city of Dunhua.

In fact, if a flood comes, it will be useless. It will be like a giant encountering a wall built by a child and blowing it down with one breath.

"Serve the meal." Qiao Lili went to sleep after breakfast. She was not hungry yet, but Yu Jingyan must be hungry.

Qiao Lili wanted Caiqi and Caixing to sit down and eat as well, "We are not in the mansion, there are not so many rules."

"If Nanny Sun asks us about it when we get back, we'll be punished." The two of them naturally refused.

"Then you can go and have your meal now. Your Highness and I don't need to be served." The two men had no choice but to leave slowly.

The head of the village gave the yard to Yu Jingyan and his family, and they stayed at their own house, and asked several daughters-in-law to come over to cook and clean during the day. When they found out that the young man who came yesterday was actually the prince's consort, they were so shocked that their jaws dropped.

How much courage did a delicate and weak little woman have to come here alone in the rain to offer a life-saving plan. Because there were too many people on the embankment, they all knew about the evacuation of the villagers in Huaijiang Beach and the release of flood water to save Dunhua Ancient City, and they also knew that it was the ingenious plan of the prince's wife from the capital.

He also learned that the high-ranking official who had been rolling on the embankment, covered in mud and as handsome as a person in a painting, was the Sixth Prince. Suddenly, he felt more grateful to the royal family.

The Sixth Prince was born to Concubine Yun, the Fairy Goddess’ child. He was sent by the Fairy Goddess to save them. The people of the Great Yan Kingdom may not know the Emperor, but they must know Concubine Yun. Concubine Yun would go to her porridge stall and provide relief personnel wherever there were disaster victims.

Only a woman like the prince's wife can be worthy of the Sixth Prince. She is equally capable and has a bodhisattva's heart to save people from suffering.

As a noble lady in the capital, what would it have to do with her if Huaijiang Beach and Dunhua Ancient City were flooded, or even if the Ganjiang River basin was completely flooded? She would just stay in her rich and luxurious home, enjoying fine clothes, delicious food, and servants at her disposal.

But she came, alone on horseback, traveling at night, braving the rain, and arrived here. She rode in the rain and ran on the embankment for a whole day. As soon as the danger was over, she fainted from exhaustion.

The daughter-in-law of the Fairy Goddess must also be a fairy.
