Chapter 089: Fetching Water

However, looking at Ying Ang's injured expression, Zheng Fangyi didn't say this after all, but nodded and said, "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you." If you're going to mess me up......"

Although Zheng Fangyi didn't say what the consequences would be if he messed up, everyone, including Ying Ang, knew that it was definitely a picture they would never want to see.

After Zheng Fangyi arranged the things around him, he did not reply to Qin Mutong, but went back to Xinmin Village in person.

Qin Mutong was very surprised to see Zheng Fangyi who came back suddenly: "Why did you come back? Have you received the letter I wrote to you before?"

If she had known that Zheng Fangyi would come back at this time, she would have been able to tell Zheng Fangyi in person that she wanted to leave the village earlier, and she wouldn't have been guilty of writing a letter at all!

Zheng Fangyi smiled: "Got it." I'm here to pick you up. ”

Qin Mutong: "......" It turns out that the reason why Zheng Fangyi came back was the letter she wrote!

"I can go to the county seat by myself, and you have to come back for a special trip, how troublesome it is!" Qin Mutong said with a little weakness.

Zheng Fangyi still looked at her with a smile: "It's okay, I'm not troublesome." Let you go into the city alone, let alone me, I'm afraid that Grandma Han won't be completely relieved. Anyway, it's not difficult to come back this time, and I can come back by the way. ”

Having said that, Qin Mutong knew that if it weren't for her, Zheng Fangyi would never come back to the village at this time.

Qin Mutong didn't say more, but went to the kitchen and brought out a bowl of mung bean soup soaked in well water: "In this weather, it's too frustrating to run around. You can drink some soup and take a breath. ”

Zheng Fangyi was sweating profusely, and he felt as if his throat and eyes were smoking. Seeing Qin Mutong bring the mung bean soup, he felt sweet in his heart, and without saying a word, he drank the mung bean soup without saying a word.

"What a cold mung bean soup!" Zheng Fangyi praised, "Tong Tong, how did you cook this soup?

Qin Mutong told him about the wonderful use of well water, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that we don't have a well at home." Otherwise, it would be more convenient in the summer. ”

There are also watermelons in the village, which are not expensive, only a few cents a catty. If there is a well at home, Qin Mutong will definitely put several big watermelons at home, and hang two in the well every day, so it tastes cool!

However, now there are very few wells in the village, and most of them use the wells shared by the village. This summer's water consumption is relatively large, and every morning and evening, many people line up at the well to fetch water, which is not an easy job.

In the past, the Qin family used to be an old lady who went to fetch water by herself, but now that Qin Mutong has grown up, of course she can't watch the old lady fetch water anymore, so she takes this matter on herself.

But the distance between the Qin family and the well is not close, and Qin Mutong herself doesn't have much strength, she can't directly pick up a load of water home every time like other men, she can only carry it home bucket by bucket, and then pour the water into the stone jar after bringing it back.

And the Qin family does not have plastic barrels, they use wooden barrels. The barrel itself is not lightweight, and it is even heavier when it is stained with water. So much so that every time Qin Mutong came back with a bucket of water, he would stop on the road several times.

If he wanted to fill the stone jar at home, Qin Mutong had to spend a lot of effort every day.

Zheng Fangyi then remembered that the ancestors and grandchildren of the Qin family, the old and the young, were indeed a little embarrassed for them if they didn't have a well at home.

He grabbed Qin Mutong's hand and dragged it in front of him.

Qin Mutong was stunned: "What are you doing?"

If this is a different person who pulls her hand, she will have to kick the other party so that she can't take care of herself!

But since this person is Zheng Fangyi...... She doesn't seem to be able to do anything!

No, you can't get down!

Zheng Fangyi looked at Qin Mutong's palms that were red by the bucket, and even a few blisters were ground out on the small and tender palms. However, these blisters have obviously been picked, just waiting for scarring.

Not only that, Qin Mutong even had a cocoon in his palm!

For a while, Zheng Fangyi was very distressed.

This girl, I'm afraid she hasn't suffered such a big crime since she was a child, right?!

Qin Mutong also saw Zheng Fangyi looking at her hand, for some reason, she still felt that her hand was nothing, but now she was a little embarrassed.

In fact, the girls in the countryside are not very easy, and there are very few who have never worked. Even, in many families, although the girl's family is not a strong laborer, it is much better than the men in doing housework, so the girl's family generally takes on a lot of responsibilities and tasks at home.

is a girl like Qin Mutong who goes to fetch water every day, and there are not a few.

However, no one is like Qin Mutong, who wore out his hands after a few days of water.

Most of them have already roughened their hands because of their work, and they have already worn out calluses.

In terms of hard work, Qin Mutong definitely doesn't have the hard work.

But no matter how tired others are, it has nothing to do with Zheng Fangyi!

Anyway, he only cares about one Qin Mutong.

Qin Mutong hurriedly took his hand back, and said unnaturally: "I just used to work less and wasn't used to it." When I work a lot, my hands won't blister anymore. ”

It will not blister again, because the original blistering places will scar and cocoon, making the skin in those places harder, and it will naturally be difficult to blister again.

As long as Zheng Fangyi thought about that picture, he felt even more unbearable.

"Don't go to fetch water in the future, I'll just help you fetch water back!" Zheng Fangyi blurted out.

Qin Mutong understood his kindness, but she didn't intend to accept it: "It's just a piece of water, it's not a big deal, I can do it myself." Besides, you are now working in the county seat, and it is rare for you to come back on weekdays, can I still leave my water tank empty, and have to wait for you to come back to fetch water? If this is the case, my grandmother and I will die of thirst!"

Zheng Fangyi also sensed that something was wrong as soon as he spoke, but at that moment he didn't have time to take back his words. Hearing Qin Mutong say this, Zheng Fangyi hurriedly said: "Then, I'll find Chen Ming...... No, I'll ask another friend of mine to fetch water for your house, right? The man runs so fast that it doesn't take much effort to fetch water for your house. ”

Qin Mutong still shook his head: "Forget it, if you really want a man to help my family fetch water every day, I don't know how much gossip I have to make in the village! ”

Zhou Suqiong lost Wu Mei's underwear at the beginning, and went to find it in time, but what a big deal it was, there are still people in the village who laugh at the Zheng family. There are only two women in the Qin family, one old and one young, at home, if a man comes in and out of the Qin family every day, it would be strange if the people in the village don't gossip!
