Contract Wife Runs away from the CEO

Chapter 1332 Extra: Opening a temple

The Zhang family's food was stolen, and this incident was covered with a myth.

Many villagers are discussing that this is a warning sent by the gods of Liushen Town because they are dissatisfied with the current well-wisher.

Therefore, the temple will be opened in advance this year and new people will be selected to receive blessings from the gods.

And Yin Yinuo and others who knew what was going on were almost suffering from internal injuries.

What divine blessing?

It's all nonsense!

These are all lies made up by the Zhang family to fool the residents of Liushen Town.

But they really believed it, and they believed it for more than three hundred years.

Otherwise, the policy of obscuring the people is effective.

The conditions for scholars in the past dynasties were very harsh.

Anyone who studies must be a scholar and be promoted to a scholar, so as to become the mouthpiece of the emperor.

Anyone who doesn't study is accepting the rule. Whatever the superiors say is what they say and they cannot have their own opinions.

In that environment, the emperor's absolute rule was ensured.

Now Liushen Town is similar to this model, but it is a simplified version.

Yin Yinuo said to Jing Shaohuai: "I'm really looking forward to seeing how the residents here will react when the truth is revealed on the day of the sacrifice."

Jing Shaohuai spread his hands and said, "There are two possibilities. One is that he believed our words and his anger towards the Zhang family reached its peak. The other is that he didn't believe what we said and thought that we were all liars, and then turned us all into liars. Dip the pig cage.”

Yin Yinuo laughed instantly: "There is such a possibility. I hope it won't be the second one."

In this way, the days flew by and it was time to open the temple to offer sacrifices.

The sacrifice is divided into three days in total.

On the first day, the temple was opened and dusted. Villagers from several nearby villages came here to attend the market.

The next day, sacrifices were made to heaven and earth, and the villagers gathered around to watch the show.

On the third day, a person blessed by the gods is selected and takes charge of the economy of the entire Liushen Town.

Mi Xiaoying and the others decided to reveal everything on the third day.

The first two days took advantage of the crowds and chaos to prepare all the props that should be arranged.

Today is the first day of sacrifice.

The whole Liushen Town became lively.

On the street in front of the temple, many small vendors appeared, carrying things that could be sold freely and shouting about buying and selling.

Many families take their wives and children out to play in the streets, buying snacks for their children and food and drink for the elderly at home.

There were also some young men and women who took the opportunity to look at each other on the street. The two families they liked quickly became Qin and Jin.

So everyone in the nearby villages who could walk around and go out came to the town to watch the excitement.

After all, it is an event that happens once every twenty years and no one wants to miss it.

As the cook of the Zhang family, Mi Xiaoying came here to clean the house because she was punished in the early stage.

I came here today to set up a stove and prepare a big pot of rice.

In order to show their closeness to the people and their wealth, the Zhang family would make alms in front of the temple and give away meals for three days.

As long as you are a resident of Liushen Town, you can get a meal.

There are flower rolls, steamed buns, steamed buns, bean buns, and even some sugar candies, roasted buns, naan, fried cakes, etc. In short, they are all staple foods that are very anti-hunger.

Although the weather in Liushen Town has been good these years and the people are not hungry, they still eat very little such fine pasta.

Therefore, everyone is still very supportive and will come here to get some to take back to the children.

Mi Xiaoying and Sister-in-law Liu are responsible for making steamed buns and Hanamaki here.

Mi Xiaoying moved very quickly, setting up the stove, washing her hands, putting on an apron, and started kneading dough.

Within an hour, the aroma of steamed buns was already wafting at the entrance of the temple, causing many children to drool.

Sister-in-law Liu whispered to Mi Xiaoying: "The Zhang family is really generous. They give a lot of food every time they perform sacrifices in the temple. This year, the granary was stolen. This is the noodles bought at a high price from the village overnight!" "

Mi Xiaoying laughed in her heart.

The wool comes from the sheep.

The Zhang family has made so much money in Liushen Town. If they don't take good care of Liushen Town, who will make money for them?

Just giving out some food can win people's hearts, so why not?

What's more, charity is only given once in twenty years.

Mi Xiaoying was chatting with Sister-in-law Liu while watching the actions of Jing Shaohuai and Yin Yinuo out of the corner of her eyes.

The two of them had dressed up as villagers visiting the town. After meeting with a few bodyguards, they buried things in batches at preset locations.

This time, they are going to do something big.

So preliminary preparation takes some time.

Mi Xiaoying was responsible for covering them and keeping them safe. Once she found someone coming, she quickly warned them and asked them to leave temporarily.

Probably because there have been too many things going on in the Zhang family recently, so much so that no one from the Zhang family was supposed to come to inspect the temple today, but no one has come yet.

This brought great convenience to Jing Shaohuai's actions.

It was originally planned to pack everything in two days, but almost everything was packed in one day.

"Should we advance?" Yin Yinuo asked in a low voice, pretending to come to receive the buns.

"No, wait patiently." Mi Xiaoying looked up at the sky, with a hint of worry in her eyes: "I'm afraid it's going to rain today."

"It's going to rain." Yin Yinuo said, "I just checked the weather forecast. It will rain in the next three days."

"What bad news." Mi Xiaoying sighed and continued to distribute food resignedly.

The first day passed smoothly.

During the sacrifice the next day, God was still unfaithful and it rained heavily.

There are far fewer people on the street.

Although there are still many people who want to have fun and come to the town to play under umbrellas, no one wants to be splashed with mud and water, so they all hide on the eaves or restaurants opposite the temple, watching the temple's sacrificial activities from a distance.

Compared with the previous grand ceremony, this year's sacrifice felt perfunctory.

Even the young men of the Zhang family were all bruised and swollen, as if they had been in a fight.

"Why is the third son of this family so bruised on his face? Did he get into a fight?" someone asked gossiping.

"You don't know yet, right? The eldest son wants to seize power and is having a quarrel with the third son. The quarrel is huge! Isn't it going to start a fight?"

"They are all from the Zhang family, so what is there to fight about? Besides, only those who have been blessed have the right to go out, so what is there to fight about?"

"Who says it isn't? I don't know what they have to fight for."

At this time, a long explanation came from behind the crowd: "Who knows what the blessing of the gods is all about?"

Everyone looked behind them, but they couldn't find the person who had just spoken.

The sacrificial dance in the temple has been completed, and now it’s time to parade through the streets.

But the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it was obviously impossible to parade on the street.

Everyone in the temple was also muttering: "The rain is so heavy this year, maybe there will be a flood, right?"

"There has been more and more rain in the past two years. There is not so much in the past. When I came here today, the water in the ditch at the head of the village was up to the top of my feet. If it continues like this, the ground will be flooded. The production of sweet potatoes and millet that have not yet been confiscated is probably going to be reduced.”

"Let's not talk about the crops. Are we still going to parade today or not? Our sacrifice can't be abandoned halfway, right?"

"How can you go out for a parade in such a heavy rain? You can get soaked after just two steps!"

While everyone was chattering and discussing, the Zhang family sent someone over to convey a message: "There is a lot of rain this year, so it is inconvenient to parade on the street, so it is temporarily canceled. Please go back first!"

"Oh, I really don't want to parade anymore! This has never happened before! This is against the rules!"

"The sacrifices are so perfunctory this year, I'm afraid the gods will punish me! The Zhang family's granary lost so much food, the gods are already dissatisfied!"

"Forget it, let's go, let's go, the Zhang family doesn't mind, so why should we be in a hurry? Anyway, we've given you all the money we should give. Let's go."

The crowd dispersed in a hurry.

Mi Xiaoying looked at the pile of steaming buns in front of her, but no one came to take them, and she felt a pang of regret in her heart.

This is food!

Isn't it just a waste of money just sitting here?

Sister-in-law Liu came out with a bag when no one was around and secretly put several steamed buns into the bag.

When she looked up, she saw Mi Xiaoying staring at her and said coquettishly, "I see that no one has taken any of them today, and they have all been spoiled. There are so many people in the family, and we can't eat white steamed buns more than once a year..."

Mi Xiaoying suddenly smiled, grabbed a few more steamed buns and stuffed them into Sister-in-law Liu's bag. She lowered her voice and said, "I won't tell anyone."

Sister-in-law Liu was indeed happy. She felt that she was not being kind to her in vain, so she lowered her voice and said, "You should take more back! I tell you, the rain is so heavy this year, I'm afraid we won't be able to plant autumn grain." If we don’t, the people will definitely be hungry next year!”

"How do you know that autumn crops can't be planted? Maybe it won't rain this time?" Mi Xiaoying asked.

"We villagers are the best at looking at the sky. My mother-in-law said that this rain may continue to rain for another three to five days. If it continues for these three to five days, most of the land in Liushen Town will be submerged in water. Sister-in-law Liu finished filling the last steamed bun and said, "I'll go back first, and you can hold it first."

Mi Xiaoying nodded, and when she looked up at the sky, the worry in her eyes became heavier and heavier.

It's raining so hard.

Such heavy rain is enough to soften the mountain.

I'm afraid that the tragedy in Wangjiacun will happen again!

But Mi Xiaoying couldn't care about any of this at this time, because the main event they were preparing for was about to begin.

The third day of sacrifice.

The Zhang family came to the temple one after another holding umbrellas.

The next person in charge will be selected at the temple today and will continue to lead the Zhang family to glory.

Although the Zhang family has almost decided on the eldest son of the Zhang family, the necessary formalities still need to be completed.

As soon as the Zhang family entered the temple, they immediately closed the temple door.

No one outside knew what happened next in the temple.

The Zhang family will make up a brand new mythical story to continue to fool them.

However, the Zhang family did not know at this time that earth-shaking changes were about to take place outside.

Just where no one noticed, a huge LED display quietly appeared in the center of the town.

A sudden voice suddenly rang in the town: "Do you want to know the secret of Liushen Town? The biggest secret in the past three hundred years will be revealed to you next."
