Three hundred and ninetieth eight chapters leaking old house

Water Town Ancient Town.Please

The sight of awning boats no longer existed in the past, and boatmen no longer ferry people across the river. The water level has soared, making it difficult to travel. We can only pray at home for the rain to stop, but God has no answer.

The white rain was falling and the old house was leaking everywhere.

Wearing a straw hat and braving the rain, Mr. Guo climbed on the roof and worked hard to repair the old house. The rain made his cheeks feel cold. He had to be careful not to step on the old tiles. He carefully replaced the complete tiles and covered them with tarpaulin, trying to make the crumbling old house survive the continuous rain.

, looked up and saw the billowing black clouds with a sad face.

"Guo Lang~ Come down and take shelter from the rain~"

The lady called to Scholar Guo in the yard to come inside and take shelter from the rain. The rain was too cold and she was afraid that her husband would catch the cold.

"Okay~!"

After fiddling around for a while, I pressed down the tiles and oilcloth, carefully walked down the slippery wooden stairs and hurriedly entered the house. After drinking a bowl of hot ginger soup, I felt that my whole body was no longer cold. Although the house was still dripping, it was not as serious as before. It was okay to make do with it.

I decided to wait for the rain to stop and go to the clan elders to borrow money to repair the old house.

The elderly mother brought some dry clothes for her son to change into, and the family of four sat by the fire to keep warm.

The wife coaxed her infant son to sleep. She had not yet bought her son tiger-head shoes and tiger-head hat. The scholar planned to wait until the rain stopped to find a way for his son to wear shoes and clothes.

The family is impoverished and destitute, and a scholar without fame is worse than a cook, a butcher.

"Son, I heard that you have been running around recently. Is there something you are hiding from your mother?"

"Mom, don't worry. My son just went to help people to earn some money. He didn't do even a bad thing, but he did good things. He helped the villagers deal with the flood dragon, and the sun and the moon can teach him a lesson."

"You... deal with the dragon? Don't you know how much you weigh? Can you afford to offend the dragon? Besides, you really did nothing wrong? As a human being, conscience is the most important thing."

The old lady was nagging that she was afraid that her son would go astray and do dirty things, and she was even more afraid of offending Jiaolong. She was old and couldn't hit her with a stick, and she couldn't teach her only son a lesson. Her son was easily deceived by others. What about her son?

A mother with a temper knows best. If she could still worry about things when she was ten years younger, now she is too old to care about anything.

The wood is damp, the fire is not strong, and the smoke is billowing. Try to make a fire to cook porridge.

After dinner, Shusheng Guo thought about going to the Wang family and Zhang family next door to discuss which village to go to next to complete the mission. Several families in this area were dragon hunters and they were doing big things.

While eating the hot porridge, Scholar Guo suddenly heard a knock on the door next door...

After a while.

Bang bang~

The young and old were stunned, not knowing who was knocking on the door. If the neighbor had opened the door early and came in to talk warmly, he would not have knocked on the door at all. The folks in the village are very familiar with it.

"Wow... wow wow..."

The strange thing is that when there was a knock on the door outside, the child in Madam Guo's arms was crying loudly. No matter how much she was coaxed, she could not be coaxed. She seemed to be frightened. The baby's crying made Scholar Guo upset.

When outsiders arrive, the men of the family are required to approach them, straighten their clothes and open the door.

When I opened the door, the strong wind rolled up the water vapor, making it difficult to open my eyes. Fortunately, the man closed the door to block the strong wind and rain. The young and old in the house were confused. Unexpectedly, someone's daughter came in. She was wet all over and her face turned pale. It looked like

She is a girl passing by to take shelter from the rain.

The child stopped crying and pushed hard into Mrs. Guo's armpit, not daring to look at the person at the door...

Bai Yujun held the oil-paper umbrella tightly with both hands.

"Look at how cold my daughter is. Come and have a bowl of gruel to warm yourself up. Don't get cold and get sick at such a young age."

The old lady greets her warmly, but few people are wary of young girls.

The girl remained motionless.

"Do you want to buy an umbrella? The umbrellas are really good. I only sell them for one tael each."

"Selling umbrellas? One tael of silver each?" The scholar was surprised.

Bai Yujun nodded, looked at the family in the room and then looked at the scholar hopefully, hoping that he could buy an umbrella. It only cost one tael of silver and it was really not expensive.

“If you don’t want to buy it, don’t buy it, and leave quickly.”

I waved my hand and tried to drive the girl out. I wanted to take her in kindly, but I didn't expect that she turned out to be a girl who fell in the eyes of money. It's a pity that she has such a good appearance. She really knows people but not their hearts.

"Wow……"

The child cried even more urgently and could not be coaxed no matter how hard he cried. The cry drowned out the sound of the rain and made the young couple panic for a while.

The old lady looked at her grandson and then at the strange girl standing at the door. Thinking of the legends passed down by some old people, her face turned pale. She knelt down with a thud and crawled step by step to kowtow in front of Bai Yujun...

Bang...bang...!

The old man knocked his forehead hard to the ground, and blood appeared on his forehead twice. The mysterious girl still held the oil-paper umbrella and did not speak or move. Upon seeing this, Scholar Guo became angry and anxious.

"Mom... get up! Why are you kneeling down to her? Mom...!"

"You traitor! You still have the nerve to say so!"

Snapped!

The old lady turned around and slapped her son. The slap made Mr. Guo not know why. The burning face was not a lie. He didn't understand. He didn't understand why I knelt down to this girl who had fallen in the eyes of money and then slapped his biological son. No.

An umbrella seller? Why?

Bai Yujun remained motionless, his expression as usual.

The old lady took off the silver bracelet from her wrist and put it in the girl's hand. Although she was reluctant to part with it, she had to do it.

"Mom! That is an heirloom of our family! How can we give it to others?"

Ignore your stupid son.

"Girl, this bracelet is the most valuable thing in the family. Please...please let our whole family go...I kowtow to you..."

He was about to kowtow, but he was suddenly stopped by a delicate hand as white as jade, and he exerted great strength.

She put away the silver bracelet and put the oil-paper umbrella into the old lady's arms.

"The deal is done, and I will do my best in the future."

Turn around and push the door open to leave.

Scholar Guo held his face in his hands and wanted to complain about my mother, but suddenly there was a loud thunder outside!

Rumble~!

Then the whole family saw an incredible scene. A huge white dragon appeared at the door and flew into the sky with thunder and lightning! The dragon was slender, its scales were like white jade, and its claws were ferocious!

Scholar Guo collapsed to the ground with a pop, trembling with fear and panic. The old lady and Mrs. Guo were also frightened. The crying child gradually stopped crying. Just now, a flash of lightning illuminated the sky and it was unclear. What was going on?

It's a white dragon! It's alive!

"You traitor! You almost killed your wife, children, and mother! I'll beat you to death, you traitor!"

The old lady took off her shoes and slapped them hard. Scholar Guo was frightened and didn't know how to resist. His whole body was numb and his forehead was cold, as if he was sick. He didn't notice the soles of the shoes hitting his face. It was still raining outside, but the scene just now kept lingering in his mind...

Suddenly I remembered there was a knock on the door next door just now!

He hurriedly got up and rolled over to his neighbors, the Wang family and the Zhang family. The two houses were dark, and they were kneeling in the house with their heads lowered and motionless. With a gentle push, the two comrades, who had been breathing for a long time, fell to the ground.

Shusheng Guo was frightened. He was thankful that his mother saved his life. He recalled that the girl sold umbrellas. When he bought an umbrella with one tael of silver, he also bought his own life. That girl was Bai Jiao...
