I became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating

Chapter 37: Why Are You Here?

“I didn’t expect Ah Tao’s life to be so hard.” In the Shen family’s courtyard, Zhao Lanhua sighed as she picked vegetables.

“Isn’t that so?” Second Sister-in-law Shen could not help but complain. “I didn’t expect that Old Madam Ji to abandon her biological grandson… Ah Tao is really too pitiful.”

“But Mother, now that Ah Tao has brought another burden, do you still want her to reconcile with Third Brother?” Second Sister-in-law Shen asked curiously.

“How strange.” Zhao Lanhua glanced suspiciously at Second Sister-in-law Shen, who was full of gossip. She raised her eyebrows and asked, “If Ah Tao really returns to our Shen family, won’t you be angry?”

“I’ve eaten so many of her chickens and fish. If I’m still angry about what happened earlier, wouldn’t it make me look especially petty?” Second Sister-in-law Shen chuckled.

In fact, the real reason was that Ji Ah Tao’s luck was too good!

As long as she brought back some chickens and fish every few days, she didn’t mind Ji Ah Tao and Third Brother reconciling!

If she could benefit from it, why wouldn’t she agree?

“Did the sun rise from the west today? Did my second daughter-in-law suddenly gain enlightenment?”

“Mother!” Second Sister-in-law Shen pretended to be shy and looked away.

Zhao Lanhua was amused by her.

“Actually, Ah Tao is sincerely repentant, but I’m afraid she doesn’t like Sanlang!” Zhao Lanhua washed all the vegetables she had picked before turning around and returning to the kitchen.

At that moment, in the Earth Temple.

Ji Zhao and Ji Chen knelt in front of the statue of the Earth God.

“Devotee, Ji Zhao. I’m going to disturb the Earth God again.” Ji Zhao clasped her hands together and kowtowed three times sincerely.

“Chenchen, do it with me.”

“Sister…” Ji Chen clumsily imitated her actions and kowtowed three times.

However, his movements were too big, and there was a bruise on his forehead.

“Chenchen, doesn’t it hurt?” Ji Zhao rubbed his forehead with heartache. She leaned forward and gently blew on it. Then, she looked into his eyes and explained gently, “You don’t have to kowtow so hard in the future. Just let the Earth God feel our sincerity.”

Ji Chen did not say anything, but his dark, bright, and clear eyes were filled with confusion.

“Are you hungry?” Ji Zhao felt even more helpless when she heard the sound coming from his abdomen.

“Sit here obediently and wait for Sister to come back, okay?”

Ji Zhao thought for a moment before bowing and walking out of the Earth Temple. Not long after, she returned.

She handed the grass woven grasshopper to Ji Chen and said gently, “Chenchen, I’m going out to find food now. Stay here and don’t go anywhere, understand?”

Ji Chen kept staring at the grasshopper in front of him.

In order to fill their stomachs, Ji Zhao still went out.

However, her luck was really good. After walking for a while, she was lucky to find a wild chicken looking for food alone!

Ji Zhao took the opportunity and quickly moved out!

The knife in her hand was quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly aimed at the wild chicken that was lowering its head to eat the worm!

Ji Zhao thought for a moment and went to the nearby lotus pond to pick a few lotus leaves.

When she returned to the Earth Temple, she smelled a fragrance in the air.

She quickly walked back, but what she saw surprised her.

“Why are you here?” Ji Zhao put down the item in her hand and wiped her face casually. She looked at Shen Yao in surprise. “Chenchen has always been unwilling to be close to others. He’s actually willing to eat the food you feed him?”

“There’s nothing difficult in the world for people who are willing to try.” Shen Yao silently curled his lips and looked back at her with a faint smile.
