Yu Mingyue suddenly made a general move, which scared Kong Xiaoyu, and when she went to touch Yu Mingyue's head, Yu Mingyue smiled a little embarrassedly, then blushed, and embarrassedly said the fact that there was no running water, and the automatic washing machine could not be used.

Yu Mingyue was very embarrassed, thinking that she was also a new human who had lived to the 21st century and had seen the world, how could she make such a low-level mistake?

After Kong Xiaoyu understood the reason, she didn't laugh at Yu Mingyue, her first reaction was to return the washing machine, but Yu Mingyue disagreed, not to mention that the current shopping mall is not like ten or twenty years later, there are a few days to return and how long to replace the service, even if there is, she doesn't want to return.

Just now, she was also made angry by the kind of picture that appeared in her mind, so she shouted at will that she wanted to set up tap water, but then, she felt that it was really feasible to set up tap water, and there were many benefits.

Not to mention how convenient it is for her to use a fully automatic washing machine with tap water, that is, the fruit trees she planted on the wasteland, after the rainy season, with tap water, it can also be convenient for watering.

After all, relying on manpower to carry water in the ditch in front of the door to water, the labor intensity is indeed too great, although she has space, but do not dare to use a large number of in this area, on weekdays has been helping to take care of the fruit trees of Pu Xiaoqiang, is only a 13-year-old half-year-old, every ten days to pick water thousands of fruit trees work, for him is not too heavy, but unrealistic.

In the late 90s, when the country's agricultural taxes were reduced or exempted, and the pockets of the villagers were slowly bulging, many people began to buy back a circle of rubber pipes and bring back the mountain spring water from the mountain.

When there was a boom in the village to add tap water, she was in high school, and her grandfather's family couldn't afford her tuition, so she didn't follow the water, but when she came back from the end of the holiday, she saw that someone else had set it up, which was actually very easy, not difficult at all.

As long as you find a suitable water source in the mountain, dig a suitable well, build it firmly with red brick cement around and above, leave a water outlet pipe in the lower part of the well, buy a sufficient number of water pipes, connect the water from the water outlet pipe, and lay the water pipes all the way home.

The disadvantages of such a water pipe are there, that is, a lot of money needs to be invested at the beginning, and a lot of labor has to be consumed, and when the water pipe is laid back all the way to be artificially damaged, or when it is naturally damaged, the water will be cut off at home, and it is necessary to find out the location of the broken pipe all the way according to the line of the buried water pipe at that time, and bring some pipes to repair.

After all the time is used, you have to go to the water source to wash the sediment or sediment in the well.

Yu Mingyue knows that now her family does not lack the money for water pipes, and now it is not more than ten or twenty years later, it is easy to find a high-quality water source that has been flowing continuously all year round on the mountain, and with her understanding of this aspect of the mountain, Yu Mingyue probably estimated that the best and closest water source on the mountain to her home is about 4,000 meters at most.

Rubber pipes are definitely sold now, in the late 90s, the size of household water pipes, only 1 yuan / meter, now ten years ago in 1988, the price is definitely lower than 1 yuan / meter, Yu Mingyue thinks that he can afford the cost of this water.

already had an idea in his heart, after Yu Zhiqing came back, when Yu Zhiqing finished laughing at her and persuaded her to agree to return the washing machine, Yu Mingyue resolutely objected, and then told Yu Zhiqing again about the plan to set up tap water.

"What? Rack of tap water? Yu Zhiqing looked at Kong Xiaoyu next to him with some astonishment, and after seeing Kong Xiaoyu nodding and glaring at Yu Mingyue with a smile, Yu Zhiqing looked at Yu Mingyue again.

"Xiaoyue, this is not a joke, the people in the city can use tap water, there is a water company, those units in our township can use water or not, it took a lot of money to press the pumping machine by the river, and there is a water tank on the top of the mountain, anyway, it is very complicated to get tap water, we don't have a water company in the countryside, not to mention, the electric press pump is also"

"Dad, we came back from the mountain spring, and we have nothing to do with the water company, and we don't need to buy any pumps to install it. We set up this mountain spring water, in addition to investing a little money in the early stage, we don't have to pay water bills in the future, we want to use as much as we want, there is no burden at all, and this mountain spring water is cleaner than the river water drunk by those units in the township. ”

After Yu Mingyue finished speaking, just like she told Kong Xiaoyu earlier, she carefully told Yu Zhiqing about how to hold water from the mountain, and after hearing it earlier, her mother felt that the idea was good, and she didn't believe that her father was not moved by it.

Hearing the end, Yu Zhiqing was really moved, but he still reminded uneasily: "Not long ago, when our family was in the city to build water from your grandfather Mei's house, the four-cent thick water pipe that your Uncle Mei took me to buy was 4 dimes a meter, and I probably calculated in my heart, even if we use this four-point pipe, if our family wants to go home, don't count it as manual, just this water pipe will cost at least nearly 2,000 yuan." But how long will it take to spend such a large amount of money to bring the water rack back, have you thought about it? ”

Seeing that Yu Zhiqing had already thought of this step, Yu Mingyue knew that her father agreed to the tap water, and hurriedly said: "Dad, don't worry, this rubber pipe is pressure-resistant, friction-resistant, and high-temperature resistant, not to mention acid and alkali corrosion, anyway, the leather is very solid." Besides, let's go to my grandfather's house and discuss it with my grandfather's house, and if they want to build the water too, then the three of us will work together to build the water.

When the water was drawn down from the mountain, we used thicker pipes to build a cistern on the hillside behind my grandfather's house, and the water was brought down from the mountain and put in the pool, and the three of us each took a pipe from the water to bring water home.

In this way, although the cost of the large pipe from the mountain to my grandfather's house is higher, it is much more cost-effective for the three family stalls than for the family to use the small pipe. After the shelf, as long as it is maintained on weekdays, not to mention for a long time, there is no problem at all if it is used for ten or eight years. ”

Seeing that the matter of running water was about to be implemented, Yu Mingyue's small mouth opened and closed, and the more she talked, the more excited she became, but as she spoke, she suddenly found that the few people standing on the side, except for Yu Zhizong, who had always been a simple wood, and Pu Xiaoqiang, who was a little autistic, the other four people looked at her with a little strange eyes, and their expressions were also different.

Finished. Yu Mingyue really wanted to give herself two mouths, especially when she saw Chen Qiang standing next to her looking at her with inquiry in his eyes, Yu Mingyue was even more flustered in her heart.

"Huh." Kong Xiaoyu suddenly laughed, gently pulled Yu Mingyue to his side, and smiled at a few people: "Xiaoyue, this guy, likes to inquire about these strange new things on weekdays, and today I bought these three electrical appliances, I don't want to say that I haven't seen them before, or I haven't heard of them, but her little guy has already inquired about how to use them." I don't know where I saw this tap water thing, and how long I thought about it in my heart before I came up with these ideas. ”

The top of her head was gently stroked by her mother, which made Yu Mingyue suddenly feel a lot more relieved, and her head also recovered from the block, and she didn't look at Chen Qiang who was looking at her again, but looked at Yu Zhiqing, who was not as surprised as before, and said with a smile:

"Hehe, Dad, when you and Uncle Mei set up the water pipe, I inquired with people, and many people said that as long as the water pipe is not damaged by man, our family can be used for at least ten or eight years. At that time, I thought that it would be nice if we could have running water in our house, but I didn't mention that it would cost money. To this day, there is no running water for the washing machine, so I came up with the idea of coming back from the mountains with water."

Seeing Yu Zhiqing's suddenly enlightened expression, the more Yu Mingyue spoke, the more calm she became, and then she said with excitement that she had seen that the people in the village regularly searched wells, saw that the township government's self-water was set up from the reservoir, etc., and so on.

After hearing this, Chen Qiang's face was incredible, but he admired Yu Mingyue's little cousin, and then sighed happily to Yu Zhiqing and Kong Xiaoyu: "Wow, little uncle, little aunt, my little cousin is amazing, she likes to observe so much at a young age, and she can have such subtle observation, and then she can also apply the new knowledge observed to real life, according to our teacher, this is simply the material to be a scientist, you have to train her well, Maybe Satsuki will become a scientist as powerful as Albert Einstein in the future. ”

A scientist like Albert Einstein? I pour!!

Looking at Chen Qiang's serious face, Yu Mingyue was full of black lines, when she was a child in her previous life, she wanted to be a scientist, but she couldn't be a scientist in her previous life, and she didn't want to be a scientist in this life, she just wanted to make money.

And Yu Zhiqing and Kong Xiaoyu, after hearing what Chen Qiang said, were excited and happy, although neither of them knew very well what a powerful character Einstein was, but when the two looked at Yu Mingyue at this time, they were very proud and eager eyes, just like Yu Mingyue had become a powerful scientist at this time.

Yu Mingyue has a big head, she doesn't want to change her mind about being a scientist for the sake of her parents' momentary excitement, after a somewhat reproachful glance at Chen Qiang, who caused trouble, Yu Mingyue took Yu Zhiqing's hand on the other side, looked up at the pair of parents who wanted to be successful, and smiled: "Dad, Mom, I really don't want to be a scientist, but I will study hard, and I will definitely be admitted to a university in the future and become a useful person, so that you can be proud." ”

For this life, she had a plan five or six years ago, in this life, although she will not be a junior high school teacher again, she will still choose to be admitted to Sichuan Normal School and spend a rare four years of college time with two friends.

Then, she has to find the other half of her life in this world, find the other half of her life, start a family and have children, of course, during this period, she will work hard to earn money and protect her relatives around her for the rest of her life.

Because, the moment she knew that she was reborn, she had already planned her life goals in this life: to work hard to earn money, protect her relatives, and then relive the friendship of her previous life, and finally talk about love with someone she had been looking forward to for a long time in her previous life but had never met, get married and have children, and spend a lifetime together happily as a family.

This is the most perfect and complete life in her mind.

Although Kong Xiaoyu and Yu Zhiqing had a little regret that their daughter didn't want to be a scientist who attracted everyone's attention, they were still very happy when they saw Yu Mingyue's decision to be a useful person and make them proud, and Yu Zhiqing immediately hugged Yu Mingyue.

"Haha, if you don't be a scientist, you shouldn't be, no matter what we Xiaoyue wants to be in the future, or if we just want to be a little princess millet worm at home, Dad will definitely support you, your mother, you won't dislike you"

Kong Xiaoyu couldn't cry or laugh, and slapped Yu Zhiqing's arm hard: "You, how do you teach children." None of them are on the right track. ”

"Hey~~~ I'll talk about it." Seeing Chen Qiang next to him holding back a smile, Yu Zhiqing was also a little embarrassed, and directly changed the topic: "Okay, no kidding, Xingjiang don't be busy going back, you and you Qiang are helping me set up the antenna, let's install the TV now, let Xiaoyue's mother watch the TV program she misses earlier, and save it hehe, hehe, I'm joking, laughing, when the TV is good-looking, I'll go in and talk to Xiaoyue's grandfather and my dad about the self-defeat." ”

was hammered hard by Kong Xiaoyu again, Yu Zhiqing didn't dare to joke anymore, and after putting down Yu Mingyue, he went to install the antenna.

Kong Xingjiang, who has always talked little, saw that Kong Xiaoyu was uncomfortable, and he rarely grinned and smiled with Kong Xiaoyu: "Hehe, eldest sister, Xiaoyue's idea is good, wait a while, let the eldest brother-in-law follow me and Yu Laobiao all the way in, and find my father to go to Yu Zhizong's old cousin's house to discuss the matter of putting up water, and it will be convenient for everyone to put it together in the future." ”

After Kong Xingjiang finished speaking, Yu Zhizong, who has always been very wooden, also nodded and smiled innocently, saying that he also agreed to set up tap water, but he still had to ask his father's opinion.

Speaking of this business, Kong Xiaoyu was less embarrassed by Yu Zhiqing's thoughts earlier, and nodded that after she took the twins to see the old man when she arrived, she pulled Yu Mingyue together, pushed the twins sitting in the stroller, and went to watch how to set up an antenna together.

In the whole Caiyun Village, now only the village chief Tang Fugui's family, and the village public sales cooperative, each has a TV, in the previous life, Kong Mingfu's family wanted to provide Yu Mingyue with education, so it was not until 1998 that he bought a second-hand small black and white, but at that time, the village was closed route, and there was no need to set up any antennas at home, so Yu Mingyue really hadn't seen how the TV antenna was set, and she was as curious as Kong Xiaoyu at this time.

Fortunately, when Kong Mingying's house installed a TV earlier, Chen Mingliang took Yu Zhiqing to install and set up an antenna, and when he set it up, he also carefully explained to Yu Zhiqing the principles and precautions of the sky, Yu Zhiqing is smart and studious again. Although the antenna has only been set up once, Yu Zhiqing has learned the methods and precautions for setting up an antenna, Kong Xingjiang's house also set up an antenna not long ago, and the four men were busy for an hour before setting up the antenna on the roof of the main house.

21 Yingcai's big color TV was placed on the square dining table in the hall, after plugging in the electricity, Yu Zhiqing climbed on the side of his main room to turn the wire and adjust the direction, Yu Mingyue stayed in the hall with a group of people, Yu Mingyue stared at the screen full of snowflakes for a while, and there was a blurry TV screen flashing for a while, and reported the situation loudly to Yu Suizhiqing:

"The direction is not good, it's all snowflakes, with it, the picture is not clear, it's gone, it's gone, it's getting clearer."

After Yu Zhiqing turned the direction of the antenna frame several times, the picture in the large color TV in the hall finally became clear, but the TV set, which can store 8 radio stations, can only receive three channels at this time, one central station, one Sichuan station, and one TV station in Kapok City, but the picture of Sichuan station is not clear and cannot be watched at all.

The central station is broadcasting the boring course of the electric university, the Kapok station is better, and it is playing a set of martial arts TV series, Yu Mingyue has just tuned to this channel, and it immediately attracted the attention of a group of people.

Yu Mingyue watched it for a while, but she still didn't remember what an old TV series it was, because she didn't know any of the people in it, and it wasn't until the young Huang Rihua appeared in the picture that she was a little surprised. It turned out to be an eagle shooter, but why was Huang Rihua a bald head when he appeared? this

"This TV series is called Tianlong Babu, it's very good, now this is released last night, two episodes a day, and the sixth episode has been released, starting at eight o'clock every night, big sister, don't miss it at night, Dad watches it every night."

Kong Xingjiang's sudden words made Yu Mingyue's mouth open in shock, she really hadn't seen this version of Tianlong Babu in her previous life, she thought it was the Legend of the Condor Heroes when she saw Huang Rihua just now, no wonder Huang Rihua was a big bald head as soon as he appeared, it turned out that it was not Guo Jing but Xuzhu.

After the TV was adjusted, Yu Zhiqing was ready to go into the red clay slope to discuss the matter of running water with the two families, originally Kong Xiaoyu said that he would go in with the twins, but at this time he was completely fascinated by the good-looking TV series of Tianlong Babu, so he said that he would stay at home and wait to help Yu Zhiqing harvest fruits and mushrooms first.

Seeing Kong Xiaoyu and Pu Xiaoqiang sitting in front of the TV in a row, reluctant to let their eyes take their eyes off the TV screen when they spoke, it was like a child who had no resistance to the TV series, Yu Mingyue wanted to laugh a little, but she was afraid that laughing out loud would make Kong Xiaoyu embarrassed, so she held back her laughter and followed Yu Zhiqing and his party to the red clay slope.

There is no accident, Kong Mingfu and Yu Tianxiang listened to Yu Zhiqing after hearing about the many conveniences of running water, and they both agreed to set up tap water together, after all, the current economic situation of the two families is not better than in the past, now the two families not only sell vegetables and have an income of about 200 yuan a day, but the rent of the shop is also 1 or 2,000 yuan a month, although it costs some money to set up water, but it can really make the family a lot more convenient.

When the two old men heard Yu Zhiqing say with a little pride that the idea of water was proposed by Yu Mingyue, they happily praised Yu Mingyue for a while, and Yu Tianxiang was even more relieved to hold Yu Mingyue in his arms, and when he touched Yu Mingyue's head, he couldn't help but think of his early death wife Jin Wuyi.

The family has to collect fruit mushrooms every afternoon, and after agreeing on the water, Yu Zhiqing was also worried that Kong Xiaoyu and Pu Xiaoqiang would not be busy at home, so he took Yu Mingyue home, Yu Mingyan heard that Yu Mingyue's house had set up a TV, and she was so curious that Yu Tianxiang saw his eldest granddaughter's thoughts, and directly asked Yu Mingyan to go out with Yu Mingyue, and said that he would let Yu Zhizong pick her up at night.

In the following days, the three families began to be busy with the running water, after the three families selected the water source on the mountain together, as soon as the people who went into the city to sell vegetables in the morning left, Kong Mingfu took his two daughters to start digging pits and repairing wells at the water source, and even Yu Tianxiang, who has always been in poor health, also went up the mountain to help every day, and Chen Qiang, who lived in Yu Mingyue's house, also took Pu Xiaoqiang up the mountain to help every morning.

And Yu Zhiqing and several other men who sell vegetables, except for Kong Xingming, who stays in the city every day to accompany his daughter-in-law and does not come back, Yu Zhiqing, Kong Xingjiang and Yu Zhizong, as soon as they get home at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, they all participate in the action of setting up water.

Even Yu Mingyue, every day after school, she would take Yu Mingyan to run to see the progress of the project and help out as much as she could, and then she would take Yu Mingyan home together, do homework together, and then watch TV and sleep together.

Since Yu Mingyue's house installed TV, Yu Tianxiang smiled and said that Yu Mingyan is about to become Yu Zhiqing's family, because this little girl is not good at TV, she watches TV at Yu Mingyue's house every night, and then lives in Yu Mingyue's house, and the next morning, she goes to school hand in hand with Yu Mingyue.

After five days of busy work, the well at the water source on the mountain was built, and the reservoir on the hill behind Yu Tianxiang's house was also built, and after measuring the distance from the mountain to the water source and the reservoir to each house, Yu Youyue followed him into the city on Saturday, and after selling vegetables at two o'clock in the afternoon, he followed Yu Zhiqing and others all the way, from a wholesale market on the edge of the city, and bought back the required water pipes and various joint accessories.

Early on Sunday morning, Yu Zhiqing and other three men went into the city to sell vegetables as usual, and Yu Mingyue took Yu Mingyan, who wanted to stay at home to watch TV, and went to the village to temporarily hire Wang Changzheng and Liu Xuegao Four strong laborers, together to help Kong Mingfu and others, lay water pipes all the way from the water source.

Yu Mingyue knows very well that just laying the buried water pipe is not a lot of hard work, but to carry the pipe to the mountain about four kilometers and lay it all the way back, it is not her grandfather Kong Mingfu and her two aunts and Chen Qiangpu Xiaoqiang can be busy in one day.

When Yu Zhiqing and the other three and Yu Tianzhou, who had not been back to the village for a long time, rushed to help, the water pipe had been buried by the reservoir behind Yu Tianxiang's house, knowing that Yu Mingyue spent 24 yuan today to hire four people to help, Yu Zhiqing and Yu Tianzhou not only did not feel sorry for money like Kong Mingfu and Yu Tianxiang, but said that Yu Mingyue did not know how to save money, and both father and son praised Yu Mingyue for being thoughtful.

Yu Zhiqing stayed in the city during the day for a while, busy with opening a restaurant for Chen Qiang and Zhang Luo, and he could only contribute to the water supply in the afternoon, and he had long felt sorry for Kong Mingfu and his two sisters-in-law, who were busy every day.

Yu Tianzhou also knows this situation, he and his old lady stay in the city every day to stay in the store to enjoy the blessings, and they really haven't made any effort in the matter of water, most of them are Yu Tianxiang and Kong Mingfu's family on weekdays, so as soon as they arrived at the mountain, Yu Tianzhou was grateful and close, and gave Kong Mingfu and Yu Tianxiang a cigarette on the side, while pulling the two of them to say words of thanks and apologies.

Earlier, when Yu Tianzhou and Kong Mingying followed Yu Zhiqing and his party back from the city, Kong Xiaoyu had already gathered everyone's celebration dinner at home, because this day was not only the day when the three families were about to complete the water project, but also the Mid-Autumn Festival, Kong Mingying and Yu Tianzhou said that they would come back a few days earlier, so Kong Xiaoyu cooked bacon, and listened to Yu Mingyue's advice, killed a big rooster, and slaughtered a fat rabbit, ready to cook a hearty meal.

Kong Mingying entered the stove room and saw it, not only was she not unhappy, but she was very happy to help with a limp and injured leg anyway, Kong Xiaoyu was worried that Kong Mingying's leg was not completely injured, so she persuaded Kong Mingying to go to the house to take care of the sleeping dragon Xiaolong. Speaking of the two little grandsons who hadn't seen him for a while, Kong Mingying also missed it so much, so he limped away on crutches, and didn't forget to tell Kong Xiaoyu what dishes to prepare before leaving.

Yu Zhiqing and Yu Tianzhou came back and only entered the house, so they rushed to the construction site here to help, but they also knew that Kong Xiaoyu had arranged everyone's meals at home, and under Yu Tianzhou's suggestion, everyone first helped to set up the water of Yu Tianxiang's house, which was closest to the reservoir, and then set up Kong Mingfu's house, and finally set up his house.

During this period, Luo Zhengfen had been standing and watching from a distance, and when he saw that Yu Tianxiang's house was the first to be erected, his face sank very unhappily, until he saw that her family's water pipe was about to be buried in the house from the back of the house, and then he snorted coldly and left.

Luo Zhengfen's attitude, in addition to making Yu Mingyue a little sad, did not affect other people's enthusiasm for work, even Kong Mingfu did not look at Luo Zhengfen directly, as if she was no longer an idler.

Yu Mingyue didn't feel strange when she saw her grandparents like this, after all, since her grandmother told Tang Wanfen the secret of the trap on the mountain, although her grandfather did not divorce her grandmother, but she never spoke to her grandmother again, I heard that the two are now sleeping in separate rooms, after Yu Mingyue knew, she originally wanted to persuade her, but when she hurriedly ran to the field and stood in front of her grandfather Kong Mingfu, she didn't know where to persuade her.

Although Yu Tianzhou's house is more than 1,200 meters away from the reservoir, but with the joint efforts of everyone, when it is almost dark, the water pipe is still set up next to the back door of his house, on the edge of the seedling field on the edge of the rabbit circle.

Yu Mingyue was the first to rush forward excitedly, unscrewing the switch of the faucet, and when the clear mountain spring flowed out, everyone let out a burst of laughter.

Yu Mingyue stretched out her hands under the faucet with great excitement, took a handful of mountain springs and put them in her mouth, when she felt the cold mountain spring flowing down her esophagus into her stomach, the fatigue of being busy for a few days suddenly disappeared, but it made Yu Mingyue have an urge to cry.

She finally saw the moment when the mountain spring water rack went home, compared to the Tang Fugui family, who was the first to put water in the village in the previous life, the three of them were more than 10 years earlier.

Yu Mingyue firmly remembered this day in her heart, September 25, 1988, the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the Mid-Autumn Festival. R1152
