After Aunt Mei had left, Gu Ziyi sat in the house, unable to return to her senses.

She was at a loss for direction in her way of life.

She was conflicted about whether she should take the step forward.

She was at a loss as to what she should do next. Her two daughters were growing, so what would they think of her marrying again?

On the other end, after Gu Chengrui returned, he told Zhou Ying about Gu Ziyi’s att.i.tude, “Babe, what do you think I should tell Constable Zhang? Reject him straight?”

“Just tell him the truth. 1 think your big sister is more afraid of the idea of marriage itself than she is of getting remarried.

“No one can help her with this, so let her think about it thoroughly. Everything will be fine when she overcomes this.”

“That’s true. All we can do is tell the truth. The rest will depend on whether they are fated to be together.” Gu Chengrui nodded in agreement.

The next morning, Constable Zhang brought a horse-drawn carriage over. After Gu Chengrui loaded the dried sweet potatoes and vegetables into the carriage, he told Constable Zhang about Gu Ziyi’s reply, “Constable Zhang, my elder sister has been emotionally hurt before, so this matter cannot be rushed.

“If you can’t wait, you should find someone else.”

Constable Zhang nodded his head firmly.”! understand. It’s because that Chen fellow has gone too far.”

“Thank you, Brother Gu,” he said, patting Gu Chengrui’s shoulder. “Leave the rest to me. I’d like to give it a try.”

“I’m impressed, but don’t push too hard, or I’ll be the first to disagree.”

“Don’t worry. Alright, I’ll be going now.” Constable Zhang said his goodbyes and drove the horse carriage off.

Stopping at the village entrance, he then rushed to the county with the soldiers and laborers.

Afternoon came. After Bai Jingping saw that Zhang Ping was planning to stay behind, he returned to the county after a short exchange.

Turning to the refugee camp, most of them were in tears.

After all, in such a disastrous year, any family would be at a loss with one fewer strong man in it.

After an old woman finished crying in the Mother G.o.d Temple, her gaze fell on the Mother G.o.d statue.

She stood up and walked over shakily. She then kneeled and kowtowed three times. “I beg of you, Mother G.o.d. Please save us, the people who are suffering. We really can’t take this anymore.

“Please take pity on us and give us some food.”

With her leading the way, some other older women immediately followed and knelt, crying and expelling their inner thoughts. Some asked for help, some asked for food, and some asked for their family’s safety.

Some also hoped that the Ming Dynasty would win the war as soon as possible so that their family could come home and reunite.

Basically, everyone started crying and begging for help.

“Is praying to the Mother G.o.d really useful?” A young man asked suddenly. “If it weren’t for a Mother G.o.d Temple here, I would have forgotten about Mother G.o.d herself.”

“I’m not sure. I know we should burn incense and pray to Buddha and Guanyin, but I’ve never seen anyone pray to Mother G.o.d.”

“Shut up, you two. How dare you disrespect Mother G.o.d?

“I’ve heard from my grandmother that when they were fleeing for their lives, they almost starved to death. It was only because of the sudden appearance of a large amount of food in a Mother G.o.d Temple that they managed to survive.” “Really? Such a divine miracle?”

“But these disasters have been going on for so long, and there’s still no sign of Mother G.o.d intervening?”

“Maybe those people’s hearts aren’t sincere, and Mother G.o.d can’t hear their prayers.” An old woman pointed at the Mother G.o.d statue, whose appearance could no longer be seen clearly. “Look how dilapidated Mother G.o.d statue has become, and no one is taking care of it.

“I’m sure most other Mother G.o.d Temples have already collapsed, let alone getting offerings.

“How would Mother G.o.d hear our request when she’s this sad?”

“Does it mean we wasted our prayers?”

“But what if it comes true? As long as we are sincere, I’m sure Mother G.o.d will show mercy one day.”

After some discussion, they began to clean up the statue of the Mother G.o.d..
