I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating

“There are a total of eight villages around Dingyuan County. Among them, Shanghe Village and Pomegranate Village are the closest.” Shen Dashan also picked up a piece of peanut crisp and said in a disappointed tone, “When your grandparents were still alive, these days were very bitter!”

“Shanghe Village has more people than land. There are very few fields that each family can get. In addition, the taxes were heavy a few years ago. The reason why your grandparents passed away so early was because of exhaustion.”

Thinking of his parents who had died early, Shen Dashan felt a little upset.

“Fortunately, there’s one good thing about Shanghe Village. Everyone works together. Gradually, our village’s days became better. In the entire Shanghe Village, you can’t find lazy people.”

“People can eat as long as they’re not lazy.” Zhao Lanhua couldn’t help but sigh. “Previously, when the drought was serious, only Pomegranate Village sold children in the surrounding villages. I’m afraid the county magistrate knows this!”

“If we really integrate the two villages, there will definitely be pros and cons,” Ji Zhao analyzed calmly. “Father, I think you have to go to the village chief’s house for this matter.”

“Yes, Ah Tao is right!” Shen Dashan nodded hurriedly. “Let’s not wait for tomorrow. I’ll go now.”

“It’S already dark outside!” Zhao Lanhua hurriedly stopped him. “You can go tomorrow!”

“That’s right, Father. We only heard about this through the grapevine. I’m afraid it’S not accurate yet.” Eldest Brother Shen also stopped him. “How about this? I’ll accompany you to see the village chief tomorrow?”

“Alright!”

“It’S getting late. Why don’t you all go back to your rooms and rest?” Early in the evening, Shen Yao was explaining the story in a book to Ji Chen.

“Shh...” Ji Zhao, who was standing at the side, quickly made a gesture at him and carefully picked Ji Chen up.

“Chenchen is asleep?” Shen Yao quickly lowered his voice and whispered, “He’s finally asleep.”

“Mm.” After settling Ji Chen down, Ji Zhao turned around and set up a futon on the floor.

“Ah Tao? It’S too cold on the ground in the winter night,” Shen Yao quickly advised. “This bed is big enough for you to sleep on.”

“I move a lot when I sleep.” Ji Zhao shook her head gently. “If I accidentally touched the wound on your leg, wouldn’t the gains not make up for the losses?”

“But the ground is really cold. I’m afraid you’ll fall sick.” Shen Yao anxiously dissuaded her. “If not, I’ll sleep on the ground!”

“How can that do?”

Ji Zhao thought for a moment and silently snapped her fingers. She rolled a thin blanket into a cylindrical shape and placed it in the middle of the bed. “How about this? I’ll sleep on the inner side and use this to block it. I shouldn’t be able to touch you.’

“Okay.”

In the first half of the night, the two of them slept soundly, but in the second half of the night, Ji Zhao dreamed again.

In her dream, she saw Second Brother in a hurry. Second Brother was carrying a heavy bag on his shoulder. He looked especially pale.

The path that Second Brother Shen took was especially bumpy.

The snow on the road was too thick. Second Brother Shen stepped into a deep pit and drowned!

Just as Ji Zhao was stunned, a group of burly men covered in black masks rushed up. One of them cut off Second Brother Shen’s head and even snatched the bag on second brother’s shoulder!

“It’S still there!”

“Yeah!”

“Ah Tao? Ah Tao?” Hearing Ji Zhao’s painful cry for help, Shen Yao hurriedly turned sideways and gently patted her back. He called out anxiously, “Ah Tao, wake up.”

“Shen Yao...” Ji Zhao slowly opened her eyes. She was drenched in cold sweat. “Did you have a nightmare?” Shen Yao asked softly as he wiped the sweat off her face.

“Yes.” Ji Zhao nodded gently. “I dreamed that something happened to Second Brother.’

BOOM!

At that moment, there was a sudden clap of thunder outside the window!

Ji Zhao’s heart sank.

She clenched Shen Yao’s hand nervously, unable to speak.

“Ah Tao, I’ll ask you a few questions. You just have to nod or shake your head.” Shen Yao held her hand and comforted her gently.

“You dreamed that something happened to Second Brother? Is it very serious?”

Ji Zhao immediately nodded vigorously.

“Is Second Brother on his way home?”

Ji Zhao nodded again.

“Shen Yao, what should we do?” Ji Zhao asked anxiously.

“Ah Tao, go and get Eldest Brother and Father and Mother over. Don’t alarm Eldest Sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law.” Shen Yao, who had calmed down, immediately made a decision.

After a while, Shen Dashan, his wife, and Eldest Brother Shen arrived at Shen Yao’s room.

“Son, are you feeling unwell?” Zhao Lanhua looked at Shen Yao’s expression nervously and asked with concern.

“Mother, I’m fine.” Shen Yao quickly comforted her. “Actually, I asked everyone to come over so late because I just had a nightmare.”

Everyone looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other’s eyes.

“Third Brother, are you really okay? Isn’t it normal to have nightmares?” Eldest Brother Shen<segment 7333 ?> scratched his head in confusion and asked with a frown.

“Eldest Brother, I dreamed that something happened to Second Brother.” Shen Yao thought for a moment and said softly, “Father, Eldest Brother, I want you to split up and find Second Brother. No matter what, you have to bring Second Brother back.”

“Third Brother, aren’t you being too ridiculous? Just because you had a dream?” Eldest Brother Shen could not believe his ears.

“Big Brother, at this time in the past years, Second Brother must have already returned home. But now that it’S almost winter, Second Brother hasn’t sent any news back for a long time. Don’t you find it strange at all?”

“This...” Eldest Brother Shen hesitated.

“Your Third Brother has a point.” Shen Dashan deliberated for a moment and immediately made a decision. “Son, after dawn, let’S go out and find your Second Brother together.”

“Father, Second Brother, I want to go too!” Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Zhao hurriedly said, “I’ve always been lucky. Can you bring me along?”

“Well...

“It’S freezing out there. Third Sister-in-law, don’t join in.” Eldest Brother Shen waved his hand.

Ji Zhao could only cast a pleading look at Zhao Lanhua.

“Ah Tao’s luck has always been especially good. If you bring Ah Tao along, you might be able to find Second Brother sooner.” Zhao Lanhua immediately said, “This matter is settled. Didn’t you hire a carriage? You guys will set off tomorrow morning. As for the family matters, leave them to me!”

The next day, Shen Dashan went out with Eldest Brother Shen and Ji Zhao.

Looking at the carriage that was getting further and further away, Zhao Lanhuas eyes were filled with worry.

“Father, Eldest Brother, let’S go straight to the south.” Ji Zhao pointed at the path in the distance and said firmly, “Follow this path and we will definitely be able to bring Second Brother home smoothly..”
