036 Out of water?
Lin An put the things she bought, she bought four cans of goat milk, and gave two cans just to send it out, and the remaining one can was given to buns, and one can was used to feed the boss.
It cost her a lot of money to put out four cans of goat's milk, and some of them were boiled with almonds and jasmine to remove the fishy smell, sealed and stored in a cool cellar. It is estimated that this weather will not last for a few days, you have to drink it as soon as possible, the family does not have an ice cellar like the Qin family, and many ingredients cannot be stored for a long time in summer, which is really a tricky problem.
The next day, there was a meal, goat's milk and minced chicken liver, the boss drank very happily, only came to their house for less than a month, usually used to it did not feel, look carefully at the past, the boss seems to have grown a lot of growth all of a sudden, the original fleshy wrinkled face texture is deeper, and the ears are erected.
Lin An held it and looked at it carefully, this paw is very big and not his current small size, it doesn't seem to be a small dog, and the muscles on his legs are also fat, when he first adopted it, he thought it was an ordinary small meat dog, but now that he has raised it, he can see that the boss is much stronger and more powerful than an ordinary pastoral dog.
Is this still a hound?
Lin An grabbed its paws and snorted lightly, looking at this appearance, it really looked a bit like the one hanging on the Chuandong Hound dog.
If so, you've found a treasure.
"You're quite extravagant, feeding the dogs with goat's milk." Xiao Muyan on the side walked over, goat's milk is not cheap, ordinary people are reluctant to drink it themselves, she is good, and she uses it to feed the dogs.
"It's all going to be drunk anyway, and the boss is also our family, so there's no difference."
Lin An disagreed, this silver always has to be spent, it's all the same.
What's more, if the boss is really a hunting dog, the intelligence and physical strength are not comparable to ordinary dogs, if you train well, whether it is guarding the house or hunting in the mountains, it is a good helper.
It's just that this back and forth did cost her a lot of money, and the recent harvest from hunting in the mountains is really not ideal, and if she wants to save the money to buy a shop, she has to work harder.
The two of them stayed in the yard, one teasing the dog and the other fiddling with the fan made by Lin An, and from time to time they looked at the buns who were practicing boxing and martial arts in the open space of the courtyard, and they only felt that the days seemed to be leisurely all of a sudden.
"You're really good at teaching this weapon." Sometimes Lin An is still not stingy with his praise, Mu Yan taught Baozi a wooden sword for a few days, and this time he already has some appearance. Not to mention, Baozi is talented in this regard.
"He's smart." Xiao Muyan was rarely praised, and he was rarely humble, "When he grows up, he will be from literature or martial arts, have you thought about it?" ”
"Nope." Lin An shook his head, "Look at him if he likes it, it's good to do anything, people, it's more important to live happily." ”
"You're open-minded." Xiao Muyan looked at Lin An, she had a shallow smile on her face, in fact, when she was not fierce, this woman was still very good-looking, otherwise she would not have given birth to such a lovely son.
Although being his son, whether he is an official or a soldier in the future, it is a simple matter, but hearing Lin An say this, Xiao Muyan feels that he can really do anything.
This is his only son, no matter what, he will not let him go his own way, he has grown up with a bumpy childhood, and he will protect him.
Xiao Muyan's thoughts, Lin An naturally didn't know, she looked at the sun above her head, it was really vicious, just sitting here with a big tree and a fan, she felt a little hot, so she simply got up and walked towards the old house.
Lin Wuyu and Xiao Muyan looked at it, and they all followed.
The old house is even more partial, at the end of the village, there was no one to go in the first place, and after Lin An moved out, there were few people, so Lin An was followed by the old fox.
When I arrived at the old house, I cleaned the yard as usual, and there were chickens in the yard, which would become stinky if left unattended for a while.
When the boss arrived here, the blood of the hound in his bones became thicker, and he began to chase the chickens all over the yard, but the buns rubbed against the vegetable field, "Look, it's blooming!" ”
Lin An and Xiao Muyan walked over, really, many of the vegetables she planted had already bloomed, and the beans had grown a little smaller, I really didn't expect that the first time to grow vegetables would be so successful, and it was also a loss to the buns that were well raised, and it was estimated that it would not be long before the family would not need to go out to buy fresh vegetables.
"I'm going to water." Seeing the results of growing vegetables, the motivation of the buns has risen a lot.
The sun is too hot these days, and the vegetable field of the old house has to be watered almost two or three times a day, otherwise the land will dry up.
There's no way, who doesn't know what's going on during this time, it's always not raining, and people can't stand it, let alone the dishes. She remembered that the new house had not been built in the last rain, and it had been a long time.
She was thinking in her heart, and the bun also shouted, "There is no water in the water tank." ”
"I'll go to the well and dig it." Lin An came back to his senses, walked to the well in the courtyard, and put the bucket down.
But when I shook it up, I could easily feel that the bucket was very light, and sure enough, when this bucket came up, the water in it was just the bottom, and it was not enough to water the vegetables.
"Why is there no water in the well?" Baozi wanted to look into the well suspiciously, but Xiao Muyan grabbed his shoulder, "Be careful, don't get too close." ”
Lin An put down the bucket, "It should be the reason why it hasn't rained for too long, I see that the water level of the river outside the water town has dropped a lot, and it is normal that there is no water in the well, and the well in our house is not deep." It's okay, just bring it up from your new home first, and it will rain in a few days. ”
Although he was so comforting, Lin An looked at this day and really didn't look like it was going to rain at all.
She looked at Xiao Muyan on the side with some worry, she didn't know why she looked at him, probably because there were only three of them and a dog in this yard, and only Xiao Muyan could understand this kind of worry.
Sure enough, Xiao Muyan's expression was also calm, and he could hear the meaning of Lin An's words, "Don't worry, there is enough water in the source of the river outside the water town, and it is not so easy to dry, even if it doesn't rain on this day, there should be nothing wrong." ”
This part of Pingxian County rarely suffers from drought, and this year's rain is indeed the least in these years, but Pingxian should not have a major problem, but I am afraid that if other places are the same as Pingxian, they will suffer from the disaster. If it's really a bad disaster, I'm afraid it's in the court, I'm afraid it won't be so peaceful.
With the comfort of the old fox, Lin An was somewhat relieved.
In her previous life, she also experienced a drought, that is, when she went to a foreign country to do a mission, it coincided with the drought weather that had been rare for many years, and she saw many people fighting for a bowl of water in front of her.
Let's hope that doesn't happen here.
Sometimes, however, the hope in our hearts does not really make the reality much more optimistic.
Although it is true, as the old fox said, that the great river outside the water town has plenty of water, and it will not dry up because it does not rain for several months. But if you add artificiality here, it's hard to say.
After only a few days, Lin An and Xiao Muyan were blowing fans at home to prepare lunch, but they heard that the other end of the village was very noisy, as if they were about to quarrel.
Although the people in the village are not as close as a family, they are polite to each other on weekdays, and this rarely happens, Lin An stood up after hearing this, "It seems that something has happened?" ”
Lin An doesn't care much about the idle things outside, but listening to the quarrel, things seem to be not small, and he is hesitating whether to go and have a look, and the little short legs of the little bun outside the house quickly stepped in, and his little face was also wrinkled together, like the boss. Not long after this guy went out to play with Fat Dun, he thought that he also ran back listening to the wind, panting.
"Oh no, we ...... We're out of water! ”
"Out of water?"
"Don't worry, take a breath and speak slowly." Xiao Muyan walked over and patted the back of the little bun, Lin An found that sometimes, this old fox was actually more careful than her.
"Yes, it's the river outside the village, the water is not deep enough to reach my legs, a lot of fish died, and the fat dun mother said that it was going to suffer a big disaster, and there was no water in the fields."
"How is that possible?" Lin An really didn't believe it at first glance.
The source of the river outside the village is a big river that crosses the entire Nanping City, and many tributaries are bifurcated in the entire area of Nanping, and finally the boundary of Nanping is merged again.
One of the tributaries comes all the way from Pingxian County and runs through several villages around the water town, which can be regarded as feeding these villages. Although the river is not too big, the amount of water used to be quite good, and even now it is connected with the sun that does not rain every day, so it will not dry up directly. Besides, when I passed by a few days ago, I only saw that the water volume had dropped a lot, but it would not drop to the point that I couldn't even reach the legs of the buns in a few days.
"I'm not lying." Baozi saw that his mother and Uncle Mu didn't believe it, and his voice became louder, "It's a lot of people who say that, and there is a quarrel in the village, just go over and take a look." ”
"Okay." Lin An believed that the bun would not deceive people, it seemed that something was unexpected, she glanced at Xiao Muyan on the side, "Then I'll go over and see the situation first, and the bun will be handed over to you." ”
If it's really because of this problem, then it's a big matter that concerns everyone in the whole village, and of course we have to look at it. However, there was such a lot of noise over there, and Lin An didn't really want to take the buns there, so as not to be unsafe.
"Go ahead." Xiao Muyan nodded, understood the reason, and still chased after him, "Be careful in everything, even if you know martial arts, don't get entangled with them." ”
"I understand." Lin An quickly answered, then raised his feet and walked out of the door, walking briskly in the direction of the noisy sound.
