Chapter 127 Artificial Rainfall
Chapter 127 Artificial Rainfall
Using his parents to threaten him? If he was really good to his parents, he wouldn't be angry, but in fact, he was not good to his parents. If he hadn't been able to get money from the royal family every month while he was still alive, he would have tortured his parents to death. He had discovered their affair before and hired someone to take care of his parents. Rather than saying that he was raising his parents, he was actually the one who provided the money and effort. He still had the nerve to say that he was raising his parents.
"Brother, you have changed!"
Don't listen to him anymore, he just wants to make life better, what's wrong with that? Why don't you understand him.
Ying Bu really felt that there was no point in talking if there was no agreement.
"Fuyuan, see off the guests!"
Ying Sui also had a bad temper, so he left with a swagger. When he returned home, he was furious to see his old and ugly wife.
"Can you clean yourself up? You look like this all day long. Are you going to have less food or clothes? It's really unlucky!"
Mrs. Qiao also had a temper. She hated such an incompetent man who only knew how to bully others at home. His family was in such a state, but he still acted arrogantly. If he was really a wealthy family, why would he let someone like her from a small family marry in as his principal wife? She was really deceived by him for more than ten or twenty years. Later, when she became more literate and had her own thoughts, she felt that he was a waste.
"Humph! The kids are about to get married, why should I dress up every day? Go find your little goblin!"
Ying Sui also followed the example of others and took a concubine. If he had money, he could have taken more. He didn't want to waste time talking to his wife and went straight to the concubine's courtyard.
Qiao faced his back.
"Bah! I should have let you die in jail, you piece of shit!"
Ying Sui's eldest son Ying Li saw this and advised against it.
"Mother! After my son gets married, we will separate. How about you live with us?"
Life is much better now than when he was a child, and he is grateful to Ying Bu, but his father is too greedy and wants more.
"Let's wait until your third brother gets married. They haven't started a family yet, and if they separate first, it will make people laugh at them."
I spend so much time and effort just hoping that my sons will have a better life in the future. I save my private money for my sons to marry wives, and never use it to let that bastard live a life of luxury.
She used to think she was lucky as she had three sons, but now she wanted a daughter. She didn't have one and she envied her sisters for having daughters. Now women can do the same as men, or even better than men. Even the prime minister is a woman!
No matter how much others slandered and framed her, she was very tenacious and still succeeded in getting ahead!
"Here! Mother, please be at ease."
"No problem. There is only one month left before your wedding. Pay more attention to see if there is anything missing. Don't neglect your wife who is not yet married."
Ying Li's cheeks flushed and he bowed and said goodbye.
When Qin Xingfu came back, he saw Ying Bu looking depressed and dazed, and thought that he was in trouble.
"What's wrong? Did you encounter any difficulties?"
“No! Are you hungry? I’ll get you something to eat.”
Ying Bu didn't want her to worry about his family affairs as she was already very busy every day.
Qin Xingfu looked at his back and then at Fu Yuan. Fu Yuan whispered a few words in her ear and Qin Xingfu understood. But she really wouldn't care about this matter. Every family has its own problems. If she wanted to get involved, then she would have to quit her job as prime minister and just be a neighborhood committee auntie.
"Go down! Where's Gongshu Yuan?
"Mr. Yuan is in the lab."
Qin Xingfu changed her clothes and went to see how he was doing. Gongshu Yuan was concentrating on debugging, so she didn't disturb him but sat aside and watched him. She found that people who work seriously are very handsome.
"Sir, please stop looking at me. I'm afraid I can't control myself."
The gaze was too scorching, and Gongshu Yuan became a little absent-minded.
"Shaopin, what's going on?"
"It's time to start the experiment. Give me some encouragement."
Gongshu Yuan ran to him and put his face close to him. Qin Xingfu just wanted to give him a simple kiss, but he grabbed her waist.
After the kiss, Gongshu Yuan felt much more satisfied.
"You take a rest first. I'll work overtime tonight and get it done. We can test it tomorrow."
"it is good!"
After coming out of the laboratory, Qin Xingfu asked Gao De to send a letter to Fusu, saying that he would not attend the morning court tomorrow because he wanted to do experiments.
"Gao De, send this to the young master. He will not attend the morning court tomorrow. You can rest more."
"Sir, can I go? I also want to see how artificial rainfall is done."
"Okay, as long as you can get up."
"Here!"
Gao De happily delivered the letter, and when he returned home and saw the spiritual scroll had returned, he hurried forward.
"My Lord is going to test the artificial rainfall tomorrow. Do you want to go and see it?"
"Of course! Let's postpone tomorrow's meeting. It's better for you to be comfortable. I'm exhausted today."
Lingjuan rubbed her shoulders, and Gaode quickly gave her a massage.
"Thank you for your hard work, madam! I am not very capable, and you have suffered."
Lingjuan pinched his thigh.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You are doing your job of leading the way for the adults every day. However, Xianyang is getting bigger and bigger. Many outsiders are confused when they come here. It would be great if we had a map."
But now, the blueprint of Xianyang City is only in the hands of the generals defending the city, and Gao De suddenly thought of a strategy he had planned before his death.
"Madam, I have an idea. How about I draw all the delicious and fun things in Xianyang and then sell the drawings?"
"That sounds good. You can ask the adults. If the adults say to go west, then I support you."
"Okay, thank you ma'am!"
Gao De kissed her on the face excitedly, and Gao Xing and Gao Ya, who had just returned from school, saw this. They quickly pretended to be looking for something, and the two children pretended not to see anything and looked for their sister everywhere.
"Xiao Min, brother/sister is back!"
Lingjuan shyly patted Gaode.
"We are an old married couple. Don't be so unstable in front of your children in the future."
"Isn't that what adults do? Let them get used to it. I haven't kissed you enough just now. Give me another one!"
"Go, check if the food is ready and where are the kids?"
Gao De almost forgot about his little daughter.
"I'll pick her up right away."
As soon as I reached the door, the three children came back hand in hand.
"Hurry, it's time to eat!"
Gao Min was forgotten at someone else's house and was a little unhappy. She ignored Gao De and ran in holding the spiritual scroll and said.
"Mom! I want to go to school, too."
"Minmin, you are still young, why don't you wait a few more years? It's the same for Sister Qiqi."
"But Sister Qiqi can already read and write the names of many dishes, but I can't. She also practices martial arts, and I want to learn too."
Speaking of which, Gao Min's mouth pouted, and Ling Juan picked her up with heartache.
"Minmin, I'm sorry, mother neglected you. Can we teach you to read and write in the future?"
After saying that, he glared at Gao De. Gao De touched his nose. The child is still young. How can he be so eager to learn at the age of three? This made him feel very stressed. It seems that he has to learn more, otherwise he will be worse than the child.
Ying Bu was alone in the warehouse sorting books and some antiques, preparing to count and classify them so that he would know how to lay out the museum when the time came.
He registered it and found that a few bamboo slips had fallen into the corner of the box at some point. He picked them up and checked, but they had not been dealt with before. Could it be that they were missed during the previous handling?
After opening it and taking a look, his eyes lit up. He picked up all the bamboo slips and went to the study to find Qin Xingfu.
"My Lord, I found something good!"
Seeing how happy he was, Qin Xingfu looked up and asked him.
"What good stuff? You look so happy."
She thought he would be depressed for a long time.
"Look!"
Ying Bu didn't say anything, but gave her the bamboo slips. When Qin Xingfu opened it, she was a little surprised when she saw the contents.
"This is the lost part of the Mohist Canon. How did you find it?"
"It's in the warehouse. Maybe someone brought it here before and forgot about it. Do you want to give it to them?"
"it is good."
Qin Xingfu saw that it was getting late, so he thought about it and decided to give up.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow! Let me see first. You are still tidying up the warehouse so late."
“I’ll see what I have in mind first, and then I’ll think about how to build the museum.”
Ying Bu now felt unprecedented happiness. He now understood why Qin Xingfu was so happy indulging in his favorite field.
Qin Xingfu saw the bright look in his eyes and warned him.
“Don’t worry, just take your time. Take care of yourself.”
Walk up to him, hug him, and kiss him on the forehead.
"I will, and you should not stay up too late."
Qin Xingfu touched his nose.
"Well, today's official business has been handled. You can..."
Ying Bu said quickly.
"Oh, right. I still have some unfinished business. You take a rest first. I'll get busy."
Qin Xingfu was speechless. She couldn't do anything now. Was she really that afraid of her? If she didn't want to accompany her, she could just sleep alone. Humph!
When Gongshu Yuan came out, he saw Ying Bu running to the storeroom. He was a little confused. Wasn't it his turn tonight? Why did he look unhappy? If that was the case, then he would not be polite.
So he ran to Qin Xingfu's room happily.
"Sir, is Ying Bu busy with something?"
Qin Xingfu, who was taking a bath, was unhappy.
"Tell me, would I eat people? He didn't even accompany me to the warehouse."
Gongshu Yuan took off his clothes, jumped into the bath and hugged her.
"I still want the master to eat me, but he doesn't want to, so I'll take his place."
It smelled strongly of tea, and Qin Xingfu was amused by him.
"Go to bed early. We will go to the outskirts of the city for experiments tomorrow."
After saying that, she stood up and walked out of the bathing pool. Gongshu Yuan scooped her up with his big hand and brought her into his arms.
"Give me a hug. I'm a little tired today."
Qin Xingfu looked at the dishonest claws and slapped them away.
"I've washed it, you wash it yourself."
Gongshu Yuan had no choice but to take a shower and stayed on her when he returned to the bed. She smelled sweet and nice, but he felt a little distressed when he saw the scars of varying sizes on her body.
Qin Xingfu kept rubbing his hands and handed him medicine.
"Apply the medicine!"
"My lord, if I had been down there at that time, you wouldn't have been injured so much."
"It's all over. I didn't react at the time. It's really strange. I seemed to be slower in reaction and my brain was a little slow that day."
Gongshu Yuan felt a little guilty and lowered his head, not daring to look at her.
"Maybe you didn't sleep well. Didn't you have trouble sleeping those few days?"
"Maybe! I smelled a fragrance that day, but I haven't smelled it since then."
Gongshu Yuan's face froze behind her. He thought she wouldn't remember so much, but he didn't expect that she could still remember such details.
"Smell? Is it from me?"
Qin Xingfu moved closer to him and sniffed.
“A bit similar, but also a bit different.”
"Hehe... Then the smell you smelled that day should be my smell. The different smell might be because I just took a shower."
Qin Xingfu had also smelled the scent on Xu and the others before, so he didn't think any more about it. Gongshu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had gotten away with it.
He was afraid that his previous calculations would be exposed, and that her good impression of him would disappear. She didn't like being deceived and calculated against, and his palms were slightly sweaty.
Qin Xingfu was very sleepy and asked him with a yawn.
“Not ready yet?”
"alright!"
After applying the medicine, Gongshu Yuan put down the bottle, and Qin Xingfu fell asleep. Gongshu Yuan saw that she fell asleep so quickly. He first looked at her face and then at her belly, where his blood was. He stroked her belly with his hand, his eyes full of tenderness.
"My lord, I will protect you."
The next morning, Qin Xingfu and Gongshu Yuan drove their equipment to the outskirts of the city. At the city gate, they saw Fusu and a group of ministers waiting for them.
"Son!"
Fusu said, "Step forward and salute."
"No need to be polite. We also want to see artificial rainfall, so everyone except those on duty is here."
"Sure, but you have to bring rain gear to avoid getting wet."
Qin Xingfu didn't care. He could only satisfy his curiosity. He went out to look at the sky. The clouds in the west were thicker today.
"God, go west."
Qin Xingfu pointed in the direction, Gao De was driving the car in front, and a group of people followed behind. Many people were curious, so the team became larger and larger.
When they arrived at the place, Qin Xingfu got off the car and saw the endless crowd. He looked at Fusu in confusion, and Fusu shook his head to indicate that it was no problem.
Qin Xingfu shrugged helplessly, took out the measuring instrument and ran up the mountain. Gongshu Yuan, Gao De and others followed behind carrying the equipment.
After putting all the equipment in place, Qin Xingfu began to measure the wind speed, humidity, and the thickness and width of the clouds. When Fusu crawled to her side, he saw her starting to write and draw.
"Sir, get ready!"
After Gongshu Yuan had finished installing it, he ran to her side and saw the angle and direction she had calculated, and he understood everything.
"Now start at this angle and direction?"
Qin Xingfu looked at the sun and the clouds.
"Wait another quarter of an hour, and then we can launch after the two clouds merge."
"it is good!"
In fact, it had not rained in Xianyang for more than half a month. Every day, there were many dark clouds, but no rain. This was also the result reported by the Liaodong County Magistrate. That was why Qin Xingfu thought of using artificial rainfall.
Everyone was silent, waiting for the time to be up. Gongshu Yuan took the result and adjusted the direction and angle.
"Okay, you can fire. Everyone cover your ears."
Qin Xingfu was worried that people would be scared, so she covered her ears and moved away.
Gongshu Yuan was a little nervous. It was the first time in his life that he conducted an experiment in front of so many people.
"Come on! Don't be nervous!"
Qin Xingfu comforted him, and Gongshu Yuan then started to fire.
"Bump bump bump!"
There were a few loud noises, and everyone saw a few objects flying into the sky and drilling into the clouds with great accuracy.
This was followed by several sounds similar to those of firecrackers exploding. After waiting for half an hour, everyone felt a little anxious.
"Is it really possible?"
"If adults say it's okay, then it's okay! Adults never lie."
"Too!"
"It's getting dark, the clouds are getting darker!"
