Chapter 30

Yang Lizheng retracted his thoughts, "Ah Yuan, what are you doing now being the waterwheel your father said?"

Gu Yuan put down the work in his hand and said, "Yes, Uncle Wenhua, my idea is to install this waterwheel on the big river, and bring the waterwheel in the big river up to dig the canal above.

A few plots of land can be combined into a reservoir to dig a reservoir, which can be used to carry water for irrigation on weekdays. In this way, as long as the rivers are not dry, our crops will not be short of water. ”

Yang Lizheng listened to Gu Yuan's words, while looking at the simple design drawings that Gu Yuan drew on the ground with charcoal, and nodded incessantly and said, "Okay, it's indeed a good idea."

I'm going to go and gather a meeting of the people in the village and tell the big guys about it. ”

Gu Yuan arched his hand towards Yang Lizheng and said, "Trouble Uncle Wenhua." ”

Yang Lizheng waved his hand, "What's the trouble?Ah Yuan, you are working for the welfare of the people in our village, it's too late for Uncle to thank you!"

Gu Laohan'er and Chen's politely stayed at home to have dinner before leaving, Yang Lizheng refused, "Brother, brother and sister, it's not easy for everyone these years, it's easier at home, a lot of this mouthful."

Your family is for scholars, there are many children, and it is difficult at home, everyone knows it, so don't be polite to your brother. ”

After Gu Laohan'er and Chen sent Yang Lizheng away, the sun was almost setting.

Except for the oil lamp used by Gu Yuan to copy books, others almost do not use oil lamps in order to save oil.

So the family hurriedly put the second-distilled liquor into the jar, took off the proposed distillation device on the pot, and began to cook.

Chen took a little rice out to cook rice today, but it was mixed with a lot of rice bran, wheat bran and sweet potatoes.

The dish is the pickles made by Chen's last year, and it is said that the green vegetables at home last year grew well, so Chen's soaked some more pickles and made more pickles.

Chen's pickles are very good at cooking, and the longer the pickles are left, the better they will ferment and the more fragrant they will be.

After the pickles are stir-fried, they smell very good.

But Su Wan looked at the rice with more rice bran than rice, and sighed silently in his heart, this rice is really pulling his throat.

She still has to find a way to make more money and try to eat white rice early!

When Su Wan helped serve the food to the table, she saw Xiaoyu looking at the gate.

Su Wan walked over and touched Xiaoyu's little head, and asked her, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you?"

Xiaoyu was a quiet and restrained little girl, turned to face Su Wan, twisted her two little index fingers a little embarrassed, and whispered: "Fourth aunt, I'm looking at why my mother hasn't come back yet." ”

Su Wan was a spirit, the sky was dark at this time, and when the Wan family usually went out to dig wild vegetables, he had already come back at this time.

She hurriedly walked to the stove house and told Chen that Wan had not returned.

Chen glanced at the sky outside, and his face fell.

She walked out of the courtyard in a few steps, and walked towards Gu Daniu, who was happily helping Gu Yuan move wood, and a violent shudder knocked on Gu Daniu's head.

Gu Daniu subconsciously covered his head with his hand, and the wood in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.

He hugged his head, looked at Chen innocently with a pair of small eyes, and his rough voice was full of small grievances, "Mother, why did you beat me?"

Chen glared at him fiercely, "Why did I beat you? You didn't see that there was no one in the family? You didn't see your own daughter-in-law didn't come back?"

Gu Da Niu glanced around a little dazedly.

Chen was angry when he saw his humble appearance, and he wanted to teach him a few more lessons.

Gu Da Niu reacted violently, and ran outside the courtyard, "Daughter-in-law, where are you going, I'm looking for you!"

Chen was startled, stunned for a moment, shook his head, and turned to enter the stove room.

Gu Yuan put down the work in his hand, "I'll go with my eldest brother to find my sister-in-law." ”

Su Wan thought that Wan Shi chased Gu Yuan to inquire about ginseng last night, guessed that Wan Shi might have entered the deep mountains, and said, "Ah Yuan, I will go with you too." ”
