Chapter 264: Vicious Female Companion Flees from the Famine and Farms (15)

Despite the fact that the water of a bucket is immediately absorbed by the mud after entering the ditch.

But buckets of water were poured into the ditches, and the water in the ditches gradually filled up, and then flowed down the ditches, through the bad land that had been carved out by the houses.

At this moment, everyone was so excited that they cheered.

"It's really water!"

"I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"Brother Hero, are you tired? Come on, come on, I'll come to the car, I have a lot of strength! ”

"Hahaha! Two dogs, do you want to be shameless? In terms of strength, the hero brothers are the ones who deserve to be the biggest! ”

"You know what! I'm afraid that the hero brother is tired! ”

Xu Yin said with a smile: "The waterwheel has inertia, as long as the speed of the water does not decrease, after it is running, it will generally not stop." But if you want to turn a little faster, you can also come by rickshaw. ”

"I, me, me! I'm coming! ”

The crowd rushed for the water.

At this time, the leather monkeys of each family wanted to catch the wheel of the car, and they were rushed to do it.

The rickshaw is fast, the waterwheel is fast, and a steady stream of water flows down the ditch into the distance.

On this day, everyone was happy like a holiday.

The problem of field irrigation has been solved, and Xu Yin has also optimized the problem of drinking water by the way.

The water I used to drink was all the water from the stream that went to the mountainside, and I had to climb a mountain road. Because the stream below the mountainside is diverted, the flow is small, and it is difficult to connect it with a container.

Listening to Shi Feng, there was a bamboo forest in the back mountain, so she asked them to cut some bamboo back, cut it in half, cut off the bamboo joints, dig up the bamboo clothes, make a hole between one section, and wear it with thin rattan with good toughness.

In this way, the natural brand "water pipe" is connected from the outlet of the stone wall on the mountainside to the foot of the mountain.

Everyone can take pots and buckets to catch water, which saves everyone time going up and down the mountain.

The stream flows into the bamboo knots and flows downwards 24 hours a day, and there is enough water for each family to drink every day.

Often the container is full, and the stream water remains for a moment.

Xu Yin took advantage of the situation to dig a pit nearby and act as a reservoir.

Families who are far away from the ditch can also go up here to scoop water and water the ground.

The pool is not deep, and even if a child accidentally slips down, it will only reach their waist.

The scorching sun was in the sky, the pool water was warmed by the sun, and there were even children bathing here.

Xu Yin couldn't bear to look at it directly.

Later, Erlang and his friends of the same age netted a few small trash fish in the river, and they were reluctant to eat them and kept them in the pond.

It's not that I use fish as a pet, but I want to keep it until the New Year to eat big fish.

Listen to Xu Yin's matter-of-fact words: The fish are frightened and don't grow up, and the children who always love to play in the pool and bathe in the afternoon have never gone into the water again - everyone wants to wait for the New Year to eat big fish.

Xu Yin rubbed his chin and thought: Isn't this a fish pond?

But almost all of the fish that Erlang caught back were small white strips, not to mention raising them until the New Year, and raising them until next year's New Year would not grow into the big fish he was looking forward to.

Xu Yin quietly put a few rice flower fish fry in the pond and regularly threw some fish food into it.

Erlang's children will dig some earthworms from time to time to feed, a small fish pond and reservoir, and children will look at it every day.

Yesterday there was a drizzling rain, and the straw canopy on the roof was wet, Xu Yin took it down and turned it over, and by the way, made some new straw canopies.

It didn't rain again one day, and there were no tiles and could only rely on grass canopies to keep out the rain.

I heard that there are tiles sold in the city, but the price is not cheap. Her current identity is "a famine escaper", where did she get the money to buy tiles?

But she can't weave a straw canopy at two ends in three days, she wants to free her hands!

Besides, it's okay if the rain is light, but what if there is a downpour and the grass canopy is chiseled?

While making up, Xu Yin pondered the feasibility of private kilns.

I asked Chen Mancang about them before, and everyone said that they had never heard of the kiln being arrested, but the main thing was that they had not heard of a kiln in this area, and even if there was, it was an official family.

At this time, Shi Fengnian came happily with a bamboo basket:

"Brother hero, look! I caught a pheasant, and it's still alive! I'll add a dish to you! ”

"You went hunting?"

"Where! I found it when I went to chop wood, and I hit it easily. The mountain is too small to have any flowers. The mountain behind my house is called big! I went in for three or five days, and I never had empty hands. ”

Xu Yin also went over the mountain to cut bamboo a while ago, only to know that in addition to the trees that were burned as firewood, there were really no flowers on this mountain, and there were very few wild vegetables and fruits.

But even if it is less, Jiro still goes up the mountain every day.

He and his peers often make appointments to dig wild vegetables and pick wild fruits.

Fortunately, there are no animals in this mountain, and pheasants have to be lucky to come across them.

Seeing that he was so eager to lighten the burden on his family, Xu Yin naturally wouldn't stop him.

"By the way, Brother Hero, are you going to take your brother and sister to the bath? A few of us found a good place to take a bath, and the water in the small lake was actually hot. I'll come down and bring you chicken, and by the way, I'll take a piece of clothing and take a bath! ”

"Is the water in the lake hot?"

Isn't that a hot spring?

Who doesn't want to soak in a hot spring bath!

Although she was able to boil hot water for a bath every day after the house was built, wiping her body with a soaked towel was no match for soaking in a hot spring.

"Where is the lake you are talking about? I don't have time right now, so I'll have to put the roof in and I'll be there later. ”

"Roofing?" Shi Fengnian saw that they had made a lot of straw tents, so he climbed onto the roof, stretched out his hand to Xu Yin and said, "Come, you throw it up, and I'll lay it for you." Isn't that fast? Let's get all the way through! It's so crowded! ”

Xu Yin: "......"

Erlang suddenly covered his stomach at this time and said, "Ouch, my stomach hurts, I have to find a place to!" ”

Waiting for Shi Fengnian to help Xu Yin lay the roof, this kid hasn't come out yet.

Shi Fengnian shouted: "Erlang, are you okay?" ”

I only heard Erlang say weakly: "No! It's going to take a while. Brother Fengnian, go take a bath first, don't wait for me, I'm slow to! And I can't rush it, and I can't get out of it if I urge it......"

Hearing him say this, Xu Yin knew that he was pretending.

Li Erlang, you weren't born to be an actor in the next generation!

Shi Fengnian saw that he hadn't come out for a long time, so he had to say: "Brother hero, then I'll go first, Brother Feng, they are still waiting for me." The little lake will go over the eastern hill, at the foot of the eastern mountain pass. If you're worried about getting lost, I'll go with you when I get back!" ”

Waiting for Shi Fengnian to leave, Erlang came out with a probe in his head: "What about sister-in-law?" If he has to go with us, won't you show your stuff? ”

Xu Yin said with a smile: "Then you follow him, remember how to go on the road, and come back and tell your sister-in-law." ”

Erlang suddenly felt that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, patted his thin little chest and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I must know the road well!" ”

Next, Erlang took the third sister to continue to pick up stones and pull weeds, and Xu Yin slaughtered the pheasant.

It was said that it was a pheasant, but in fact it was a large bird, and there was not much meat in the braised frow, so I soaked a lot of mushrooms and made a chicken soup.
