The roaring thunderous sound echoed in the ears, looking up at the waterfall.

The splashing white mist cascaded down the steep cliffs, immediately scattering countless pearls and splashing thousands of silvery flowers on the trees, just as if a group of white horses with wind in their hooves rushed towards them like waves in a storm.

The layers of dense mist that splashed forward and backward hit everyone’s faces, bringing a wave of coolness that attracted more and more people to the Black Pond, and they couldn’t help moving closer to play around in it.

Not far from the Black Pond, there was a viewing platform. At the moment, the platform was already crowded with people, and it was packed to the point that it was impossible for anyone to get through.

Di Yelei carefully protected Liu Sisi and slowly walked towards the other end of the Black Pond.

The deafening sound of the waterfall crashing into the Black Pond, the two managed to find a corner to sit underneath the viewing platform.

“Dad! Mom! Why did you just come now? You guys are walking so slow!”

YingEr didn’t know where she had run out from when she suddenly jumped into Liu Sisi’s arms, affectionately holding onto her legs and refusing to let go.

“YingEr is so good, Mom missed you so much! Come, let Mom kiss you——”

Liu Sisi happily picked her up, lowered her head and kissed her little face several times, making her giggle, and only then did she stop kissing her.

Seeing the affectionate scene between the two, Di Yelei couldn’t help but smile.

“YingEr, where have you all been? Mom has been so worried. Why did you guys run around?”

Only when the two had finished playing, Liu Sisi asked Di Ying happily.

Di Ying tilted her little head and thought, “It was Brother Zhang Yun! He took me to play. He also treated me and my brother to a lot of delicious food; YingEr’s stomach is full now.”

Di Ying gestured happily.

While they were talking, Zhang Yun and Di Xuan also ran out of the crowd. Behind them were Zhang Peng and Guihua.

When everyone got together, they couldn’t help but laugh.

“We saw you guys over there just now. We wanted to say hello, but when we saw Lord County Magistrate was there, we didn’t go over and bother you all.”

Zhang Peng said with a light laugh.

Guihua, who was beside him, also leaned over happily, “Sisi, was that really the Lord County Magistrate? It’s my first time seeing him. I never thought he would be so kind and smiling.”

“Yes, it was indeed the Lord County Magistrate.”

Liu Sisi agreed, secretly grumbling in her heart that the magistrate’s smile was just to please Madam Gan Senior and Gan Miaoruo.

“What happened just now? Why did the Lord County Magistrate come? It couldn’t be because of Big Mouth Li’s case, could it?”

Zhang Peng asked worriedly.

“It’s not exactly like that! Just now… ”

Di Yelei was extremely happy and recounted the events that had just taken place.

He then sighed, “It’s all thanks to Constable Zuo for recommending me to the Lord County Magistrate this time. With Miss Gan’s help, I was able to take the first step. When I go to the county government, I’ll find an appropriate time to recommend Brother Zhang to the Lord County Magistrate as well. With our tacit understanding, in the future, our actions and work in the governmental office will be much more convenient.”

Zhang Peng was overjoyed!

“If I could really go to the county government, I would definitely repay Brother Ye Lei a great deal!”

“Saying that really makes me, Di Yelei, feel like I’m not being treated as a brother.”

Di Yelei spoke solemnly, “When Big Brother left, he entrusted me to Brother Zhang’s care. Over the years, I’ve always considered you as my blood brother! Moreover, these years, Brother Zhang, you have given me so much help. If I were to express my thanks, how could I, Di Yelei, ever fully appreciate it with just a ‘thank you’?”

These words resonated deeply with everyone who was present!

Zhang Peng patted Di Yelei’s shoulder heavily, repeatedly saying good words!

“Good! Very good, good!”

Liu Sisi was also extremely happy deep down. If Zhang Peng could accompany Ye Lei to the county government, it would not be easy for Zuo Xingyu to have any ideas, let alone succeed!

Wait a minute!

Liu Sisi suddenly thought of a question.

“Ye Lei, just now County Magistrate Su said that from now on, you two would be completely under the control of Ruo Ruo. Are you and… him still constables? Or are you now part of the Gan Family’s retainers?”

“…”

Everyone was suddenly stunned by Liu Sisi’s question!

Lord Gan is an important minister in the imperial court. If they really became part of the Gan Family’s retainers, their status would naturally soar!

As the saying goes, there is a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister’s door!

However, it was unclear which side they belonged to following the Lord County Magistrate’s instruction. It was really hard to say!

It was Guihua who saw things clearly on the side!

“Hey! Are you tired of thinking about these things? Are you not tired of catching criminals for thousands of miles as constables? It doesn’t matter whether you’re a constable or not, as long as you’re paid a monthly salary.”

When everyone thought about it, they agreed with her reasoning, so they let go of the matter. They played in Black Pond for a long time before they continued on their way to Goddess of Mercy’s temple.

Goddess of Mercy’s temple was flourishing with visitors. When everyone arrived, there were still crowds of pilgrims everywhere.

Guihua took Liu Sisi to buy a large bundle of incense, handed it to Sisi, and whispered mysteriously in her ear: “Hurry up! Let’s go in together. Remember to worship sincerely. The Goddess of Mercy’s temple is very effective in granting children. When I was pregnant with Zhang Yun, I came here to worship sincerely.”

“What?”

These words almost made Liu Sisi throw away the incense in her hand!

How could she have forgotten that the deity enshrined in this temple was naturally the Goddess of Mercy?

Liu Sisi covered her face!

How could she have not thought of this aspect of the child-sending Goddess of Mercy? No wonder everyone was willing to accompany her on such a long journey just to help her seek a child at this temple!

Could she tell them that she didn’t want a child at all right now?

Looking at Di Yelei’s hopeful face and Guihua’s excited expression, she swallowed the words that had almost come out.

Being forced to go along with it, she followed Guihua and knelt before the statue of the Goddess of Mercy. Her hands clasped together, she prayed in a low voice.

“Oh, the merciful and compassionate Goddess of Mercy, I, Sisi, beg for your mercy. Please, please don’t let me become pregnant. I’m only sixteen years old now, and it’s really not suitable for me to be pregnant. I plead for your help, Goddess of Mercy.”

Having said that, she carefully paid her respects with three deep bows before standing up and leaving the temple with Guihua.

“How was it, Sisi? Did you pray sincerely? I’m telling you, the Goddess of Mercy is very responsive! She will definitely hear your heartfelt wish and bless you with a big, fat boy.” Guihua said, her face full of excitement.

Liu Sisi’s mouth twitched slightly. If the Goddess of Mercy was really magical, she didn’t know what the Goddess would think!

“Sister Guihua! Who can say for sure about such things…”

The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked forward.
