Chapter 72: Intercepting the water

"By the way, the wild boar was sold for nine taels of silver, which is our family's three taels, you can take it." Tang Zhian took it out of his arms and handed it to Lin Qiu'er.

"This wild boar sells for a lot of silver." She put the silver in her bosom.

Tang Zhi'an nodded.

Lin Qiu'er said: "You gave all the money to Dr. Zhang's family and Lin Xiaoshan's family, right?" ”

Tang Zhian nodded, "It's already been given." ”

Lin Qiu'er shrugged, "That's good, then the Hu family is too calculating, if you don't give the silver to their family, maybe they will come over to trouble us later." ”

Tang Zhian smiled, what his daughter-in-law said was right.

Lin Qiu'er glanced at him.

Tang Zhian said while washing clothes: "I can water the ground tomorrow, and I will go to the village chief to line up later." ”

Lin Qiu'er nodded, their family can get a rice field to raise fish, this water is very important, and if you are not careful, you will lose a lot.

She stood up and came to Tang Zhi'an's side, "Okay, I'll wash these clothes!" You hurry up and queue up, at this time everyone has to water the ground, if you go late, our family will have to line up in the back. ”

After the water came from the neighboring village, the men of their village went to build a canal to bring it to the ground, but only one family could water it at a time, so they had to queue up, and whoever came to the house would block the other outlets of the water and bring the water to their own fields.

Every year is like this, this year is the same as before, but the difference is that Tang Zhian can water the ground with everyone this year, instead of holding a torch to water the ground by himself when everyone does not water the ground in the evening.

When he arrived at the village chief's house, he saw that there were already a lot of people here, Lin Xiaoshan saw him come in and pulled him aside, "Zhi'an, go back!" My dad has already written your name just now, and your house will be watering the ground tomorrow afternoon. ”

Tang Zhi'an glanced at him with some surprise, you must know that the village chief has always done things without going through the back door, every year it is who comes to the queue, and no one else can help, and it is really unexpected that he is willing to go through the back door for him this year.

Lin Xiaoshan glanced at him and said, "This is the first time for my father, he said that you saved Dr. Zhang, which is a credit to our village, so it is appropriate to give you a back door." ”

Tang Zhi'an nodded when he heard his words, "Okay, I'll go back first, and I'll go directly to water the ground tomorrow afternoon." ”

Lin Xiaoshan smiled and said, "Okay." ”

Lin Qiu'er had just washed a few times, and Tang Zhi'an came back, she looked at him in surprise, "Why is it so fast?" ”

Tang Zhian said with a smile: "The village chief has gone through the back door, and our family will water the ground tomorrow afternoon." ”

"This feeling is good!" Lin Qiu'er also smiled.

The next day, the village began to water the ground, Tang Zhian went to the field to take a look, this will soon be able to reach his home, he is very happy, and the people he met on the road also greeted him.

"Tang Zhi'an, you stop."

Hearing the voice, Tang Zhi'an turned around and saw Tang Zheng coming over quickly while shouting to him.

"Dad, is there anything wrong with you?" asked so in his mouth, and he was already a little reluctant to talk to Tang Zheng in his heart.

Tang Zheng looked at him and said dissatisfiedly, "When did your house water the ground?" ”

Tang Zhi'an guessed what he wanted to say, but he didn't directly say when his house was watered, just looked at him.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Tang Zheng's face was full of unhappiness, "Why didn't you answer when I asked you, are you dumb?" ”

Tang Zhian glanced at him and said, "Why are you asking this?" “

"What, I'm your father, can't I ask?" Tang Zheng looked at him with disdain.

Tang Zhian saw that he didn't speak like this, turned around and prepared to go back, what did this person have to say to him.

Tang Zheng hurriedly said: "Did you hear me talking to you, when your family watered the ground, you also watered our family." ”

Tang Zhian stood and turned around, looked at him incredulously and said, "Dad, what do you think?" We are not a family at all, and if you water the ground, you have to go to the village chief to queue up and then water it. ”

Tang Zheng looked at him and said, "Who doesn't want to, aren't you already in line?" It's the same as when we line up, and you just have to water our land by the way. ”

Tang Zhian looked at him and said: "I don't want to, if others know, there will definitely be a conflict, and you will definitely not be able to change you, so you quickly let the second brother go to the village chief's house to line up." ”

Tang Zheng looked at his appearance of not being able to eat oil and salt, and his face turned red with anger, "You really don't treat us as relatives anymore, do you?" You don't even want to do such a little thing, am I still your father? “

Tang Zhian looked at him and said: "I didn't say no, but I also made it very clear, I can't help this time, there are village rules in the village, even if you are my father, you can't break it, right?" With that, he turned and left.

Tang Zheng looked at the back of him leaving and spat angrily, then turned around and went back to his house.

In the afternoon, Tang Zhi'an hurried to the field, because their family had two plots of land, so after he got one piece of land, he hurried to the other.

But who knew that the land was done, he found that the water in the canal had become less, and he had some doubts in his heart, in order to water the land faster, he deliberately did not block the canal, the water was run by himself, and it stands to reason that it should not be so little.

He hurriedly went to the other side of the canal to see what was going on, and when he saw it, he found that someone had actually intercepted the water from his house, and Tang Zhi'an's face became gloomy.

Following the trend of the water, what he saw was actually the Tang family's land, and he understood in his heart that Tang Zheng came to him before and asked him to water the Tang family's land by the way when he was watering the ground, but he refused, but who knew that something would happen at this time.

The Tang family directly got the water into their own field, which was really too much, he directly got the water back, and blocked the opening of the Tang family.

Tang Zhixian was watering the ground, but he found that there was no water, so he hurriedly came out to take a look, and found Tang Zhi'an standing on the ground with an unkind face, "Tang Zhi'an, what do you mean, why are you blocking the water?" ”

Tang Zhi'an looked at him as a matter of course, and said angrily: "Why do you say, I got this water in line, and you got this water to your field now, it's really convenient?" ”

Tang Zhixian's face was not embarrassed at all, because this water was what his father meant, and he didn't do it, besides, isn't Tang Zhian from the Tang family? Isn't it just right to water their Tang family's land by the way?

"Second brother, the rule in this village is to queue up for watering the ground, since you don't have a queue, then you can't water the ground, it's too much to intercept our family's water here, right?"

Tang Zhixian was about to say something, but the people from the Tang family had already come over, and when they heard Tang Zhi'an's words, the Xu family immediately shouted, "You evil star, how did you talk to your second brother?" Is there something wrong with your second brother's words? ”
