Chapter Ninety-Six: Digging a Well, What You Can't Get Is the Best

"There are not many people, but they are fine, you see that they are all tall and strong, and they are good at work." Li Laowu didn't believe Shen Huazhuo in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he still wanted to gamble, he couldn't do nothing and beat him to death.

Shen Huazhuo didn't care about his attitude, she had already made arrangements for this matter, and calling them over was just for them to be coolies, seeing this, they divided into several groups of people and followed the Yun family brothers and sisters to the place marked yesterday.

"Dig ten meters down here." She pointed to the vicinity of the poplar forest.

According to modern experience, if you want to dig a well in the place where the poplar forest grows, you will have water if you dig five to ten meters down, and the groundwater in the back mountain is so large that it is estimated that it will not be ten meters.

A few strong men opened their arms and started to work.

Shen Huazhuo and the others stood in the shade, anxiously or calmly waiting for the answer in the loess.

"Is there really water down there?" Yun Xiaomei rubbed her hands anxiously.

"Don't worry." Although Yun Xiaoshu was also anxious, his eyes were full of trust, and he believed that his sister-in-law would not talk nonsense.

Shen Huazhuo's heart warmed, the Yun family brothers and sisters really didn't say anything to her.

"I've dug for more than two feet, and I still haven't seen water." Li Laowu squatted on the tree with a dry tobacco pole, frowning and a little impatient.

"Dig to the point." On weekdays, it is estimated that there are five meters, but now it is a drought year, so naturally you have to dig deeper.

Seeing that everyone was digging a little deflated, the motivation to throw their arms before was gone, the movement was sluggish, and they couldn't transport it for half a day.

"I'll go." Yunbeard took a hoe and went down the well, he wanted the little lady to know that even if everyone didn't believe her, he would stand firmly behind her.

Soon dug up to Sanzhang but still didn't even take a look at Mercury, the villagers were anxious, and glared at Shen Huazhuo with red eyes: "Hey, can you do it?" Lizheng, what should I do now? "They dug for so long, but they didn't dig anything.

Li Laowu's face also changed, and his face darkened gloomily.

He had mistrusted people, and now he had to bear the responsibility.

"Yun Niangzi, this matter is very important, I know that you have a good relationship with the Fu family and want to solve the problem, but you can't play with us." Let him be embarrassed in front of so many people, like something.

"I don't mean to play around." If it weren't for the lack of time, she would have chosen to dig a well first and prove it to them.

Although her tone of voice was calm, her heart was also a little impatient, only her face was not visible, she looked closely at the yellow mud dug out, and when she touched it, it was full of wetness, and her fingertips were cold to the touch: "I'm about to see water." ”

She was overjoyed that the soil had become like this, and she dared to say that there was no water, but she had to dig deeper.

The people will be skeptical.

"Go ahead." If you give up now, all your previous efforts will be in vain.

After more than three zhang, she hit down another zhang and still didn't see water, so everyone simply threw the hoe and didn't want to do it even if she wore out her mouth.

"If the well water can't be pumped, I will pay for your labor." Shen Huazhuo didn't bother to pay attention to their cannibalistic appearance, and the yellow mud on his hands would only touch his hands, and he might only be able to get a thin layer.

When they heard that it was not in vain, the villagers felt better, but everyone expressed their unwillingness to continue to do useless work, and they were tired from their lack of manpower. “

"Yun Niangzi, I know that you have silver in your family, but you don't use it like this." Someone tried to persuade her.

"Sister-in-law......" Yun Xiaomei lowered her head in some fear when she was looked at by their fierce gaze, and hid behind her.

Shen Huazhuo clapped her hands comfortingly: "Don't be afraid of them. ”

Yun Xiaoshu simply picked up the hoe and went to help his eldest brother carry the soil.

Shen Huazhuo saw that they had wiped all the yellow mud off their bodies, knowing that they would not go down the well again, and shook his head in some disappointment.

Sometimes ignorance is really scary.

"Thirty copper coins per person is your hard work." She carried the copper coins on her and immediately settled them for them.

"I guess my eldest brother didn't get any water on the back mountain, so it's really a toss."

Shen Gouwa shook her head, distressed by the large amount of copper coins she took out.

Shen Huazhuo ignored them, didn't care that the embroidered shoes would be dirty, and went to the edge of the well to see.

There was a black hole below, only a faint glimmer of light flickering inside, she clenched her fists hard, wait.

"Lizheng...... Uncle Lizheng. Li Haibo, the nephew of the Li family who was assigned to dig a well, flew over.

"You came just in time, first go to Yun Niangzi's to get the wages, the water didn't come out, she paid the wages."

Li Laowu hurriedly shook the pot.

"No...... Be...... Uncle, it's ......"

Li Haibo ran too quickly, his face turned red, and he didn't shout a word for a long time, so anxious that everyone was distressed.

"The water is out, let's get the water out of the well."

The deepest wells near the grass are as deep as seven or eight meters, and even shallower if it is not in dry seasons.

"Is it true? How many mouthfuls did you take? ”

Li Laowu was so excited that his old eyes were cloudy, and his lips didn't know how to open.

Li Haibo compared it to five.

"Enough, enough......" The crowd who was about to leave all gathered around and asked questions.

"Hey, you're almost out of the water." Li Haibo pinched the mud.

When they saw the dirt, they dug down a little further and the water came out.

"If you hear it, don't hurry up." Li Laowu is adaptable.

Shen Huazhuo clapped his hands and let go to the side.

Before everyone could move, the dull echoing voice of Cloudbeard came from the bottom of the well.

"Pull me up, there's water coming out of the well."

"Out of the water, out of the water, do you hear that?" Everyone was so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

The good news encouraged the villagers, who rested for a while and threw off their arms once again.

"Sister-in-law, you can really do it." Yun Xiaomei looked at Shen Huazhuo with infinite admiration, this time with the well, the people in their village would not suffer.

There is water below, Shen Huazhuo had expected it, it was just a matter of depth, and he didn't feel anything, and his mind was extremely peaceful.

The villagers were a little embarrassed, and they all scrambled to return the thirty yuan they had received to the Yun family.

Shen Huazhuo refused extremely tactfully.

The water from the well solved a big problem for the village, but it also solved the urgent need in the Fu family's grocery store, and she would never be entangled by those people again, so the money was still worth it.

In this way, including Li Laowu, they all felt as if they owed Yun Niangzi, and since then, when they saw her, they all unconsciously had respect.

In the future, after Shen Huazhuo did more shocking things and many reforms, they became the most loyal supporters of the pump, and they benefited a lot.

……

The news of the water in Shenjia Village spread far and wide, and people from neighboring villages rushed to follow suit, but they didn't know how to see the direction of the mountains and the plants in the mountains, so the effect of digging wells without authorization was not good.

Many people dig four or five feet in random places and do not see water.

After some tossing, everyone inquired about the name of Yun Niangzi in Shenjia Village, and each village was accompanied by Li Zheng and the village chief to ask Shen Huazhuo to guide them in the direction.

Shen Huazhuo was dressed in a light blue coarse cloth robe, standing under the elm money tree and calmly refused: "Where do I know these things from a woman's family, it is my father-in-law's unique vision." ”

Before she came, everyone didn't believe that she would know these things as a woman, but now I think it's true when I hear her explain like this.

Yun Huzi was puzzled, obviously his daughter-in-law was powerful, but Shen Huazhuo winked at him mischievously.

Since ancient times, a woman has no talent to be virtuous, and she has been in the limelight enough, and she doesn't want to be cited as an outlier.

Seeing that the little couple looked at each other, everyone thought that they were unwilling to be in a hurry, and they competed for a bid: "Our village said that we will give fifty wen for digging a well." ”

"Our village gives fifty-five wen."

"Cut, you are stingy, we will give sixty wen."

Among these village chiefs, there are people who have troubled Shen Huazhuo, and her resignation just now just wants to teach them to know that it is easy to meet after being a person and leaving a line, and it is also a foreshadowing for what she will do in the future.

But not for the so-called bidding.

"Although this incident is a natural disaster, it was ...... before" She unconsciously touched the small scar on her forehead.

Regardless of the past, she will come up with new things in the future, they like to follow the trend, and they like to trouble her, which is unacceptable.

"Before, we were wrong, we listened to others, and we didn't distinguish between right and wrong...... I misunderstood Yun Niangzi, and I would like to apologize to you here. "Yang Daodao of Yangjia Village is simply a big man who said to bend down.

Seeing that his attitude of admitting his mistake was okay, Shen Huazhuo nodded: "I'll discuss with my father-in-law when I go back, and I'll go over after I finish dealing with the seeds." ”

Digging a well is the root cause of the matter, but the seed is the fuse, and she has replanted the seedlings for them in the space.

Yang Daodao lowered his head and his face was red, and his heart was not good, she clearly said that she forgave her, but this is still a posture of taking a shelf, his brain turned sharply, thinking of the grievances when she was thrown with vegetable leaves, and suddenly understood.

"Yun Niangzi, in the past, we were offended, no matter what happened in the future, if it is related to Yun Niangzi, our village will definitely think twice before acting, and resolutely not cause you any trouble."

At that time, I smashed people to see red, it was miserable, and I couldn't complain that people were angry.

Shen Huazhuo's eyes flashed, and he still went up.

There are also discerning people in other villages, who know that she wants a guarantee, so they gather everyone: "The weather is very dry, all the rice seedlings have been burned to death, and it is urgent to dig a well for water, and it is imperative to do it, and it must not be delay......ed any longer."

Everyone discussed in a whisper, but Shen Huazhuo was not interested in listening, and went out to guide the villagers of Shenjia Village to irrigate the rice seedlings in the correct way.

Seeing them happily carrying water to water the fields, several village chiefs were so anxious that they hurriedly made the same assurances as Yang Daodao.

Shen Huazhuo thought that their consciousness was too low, and they realized too late, so they had the heart to dry it again.

"Sister-in-law......" Yun Xiaomei relented, pulled her shirt and pulled it gently.

Shen Huazhuo shook his head and pulled her into the room: "Some things are too easy to get, so people don't know how to cherish them." Sometimes it's the hard-to-get stuff that's the best! ”
