I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating

Chapter 33: Catching Fish

“I...” Ji Zhao did not expect Zhao Lanhua to ask this question. She hesitated for a while before pursing her lips and falling silent.

“Alright, I understand what you’re thinking.” Zhao Lanhua patted her shoulder and comforted her with a smile. “Rest well!”

Ji Zhao sensed the disappointment in Zhao Lanhua’s tone and felt even more upset.

Right now, she did not have any admiration for Shen Yao.

She couldn’t lie about her feelings.

When Zhao Lanhua walked out of the room, she met Shen Yao’s calm face.

“Sanlang, go to your eldest brother’s room tonight and sleep.” Zhao Lanhua waved at him and left.

Shen Yao nodded slightly.

After resting in the Shen family for three days, Ji Zhao bade farewell.

This time, Zhao Lanhua did not stop her.

Ji Zhao, who had returned to the Earth Temple, was very surprised.

The dilapidated Earth Temple suddenly looked new.

There was a bamboo bed in the temple with a thin greenish-gray blanket on it.

What made Ji Zhao the happiest was that there was a newly built stove outside the temple. Beside the stove was a stack of dry firewood.

“Earth God, could it be that Miss Conch is here?” After looking around the entire Earth Temple, Ji Zhao piously knelt in front of the statue of the Earth God and asked with a surprised smile.

“Who is Miss Conch?”

Shen Yao’s voice suddenly sounded behind her. Ji Zhao looked back in surprise.

“I cleaned up this place a little while you were recuperating at home.” Shen Yao looked at her and explained softly, “In addition, I’ve already reported to the village chief of Shanghe Village. He also agreed to let you stay here temporarily.”

“That’s great!” Ji Zhao was extremely grateful. “Shen Yao, thank you so much!”

“You’re welcome.” Looking at the bright smile on her face, Shen Yao smiled silently.

“Why don’t I treat you to a meal?” Ji Zhao smiled warmly. “You helped me tidy up my residence so well. Logically speaking, I should treat you to a meal!”

“Come, let’s go look for ingredients first!” Ji Zhao grabbed his arm and left the Earth Temple.

The two of them walked 1.5 to 2 kilometers west and finally saw a clear river.

“The river water has risen a lot!” Ji Zhao could not help but sigh. “When I came to the river to get water earlier, the river water was almost dry.”

“Thanks to the heavy rain a few days ago, the riverbed has risen a lot,” Shen Yao explained.

“Do you like to eat fish?” Ji Zhao inadvertently caught a glimpse of the fish swimming in the river and looked up at Shen Yao with a smile.

“Mm.”

“Then I’ll treat you to fish!” Ji Zhao quickly rolled up her sleeves, bent down, rolled up her pants, and carefully walked into the river.

Before Shen Yao could stop her, she had already caught a chubby fish!

The warm sunlight shone on her body, giving her a faint glow.

The fish struggled in her arms, splashing water onto her bright and smiling face.

Shen Yao forgot to breathe when he saw this scene.

That poem involuntarily appeared in his mind.

It must be a fairy that had descended into the mortal world, her smile defeating the stars.

Ji Zhao did not notice the change in Shen Yao’s gaze. At this moment, she was immersed in the joy of having gained a lot!

After a while, she actually caught five big fish!

“Sour pickled fish, steamed fish, sweet and sour fish, Zhuge grilled fish, crucian carp tofu soup...” The cooking methods of countless types of fish appeared in Ji Zhao’s mind.
