After eating and drinking, the potters and carpenters did not take a break and began to make the well beam, which was made of loose boards or miscellaneous wood and made into a hexagonal shelf, which was highly supportive.

In addition to the upper well radial, but also to do the lower well radius, because most of the wells are soil layers, and the wells are relatively deep, and they are easy to collapse by water immersion, so they should go down the well radials while drilling the wells.

After finishing the Shangjing Tree, it was already dark, and the old man Xiang sorted out an empty room in the house and let them live in it, and when he saw the wide room and the big kang, these potters and carpenters were even more satisfied.

Every day after that, the potter asked a few laborers to work hard to clean the soil in the well, and at the same time, the well rod was lowered into the well layer by layer, and then the well rod was tamped with a heavy hammer.

Seeing that the water was rising little by little, the potter took out two more kings and threw them into the well, until the well water came up completely, and then fished up the kings, and finally ended the task of digging the well.

"This brother, why did you put Wang Ba into the well?" After the old man Xiang gave the silver to the potter, he couldn't help it anymore and asked.

"This old brother, this is the rule of our well drillers, we are afraid that someone will poison the well in the process of digging the well, and if Wang Ba dies, this well will be wasted." The potter explained.

"Poison."

The old man Xiang's heart tightened, but the potter reminded himself that in the future, the food, drink, and washing at home will use this well, in case someone hacks him, it will kill people.

"This big brother, your well is outside the yard, I think it's better to make a manhole cover, and lock it with a big lock at night." The potter suggested.

"Manhole cover." Old Man Xiang asked.

"Yes, there are two kinds of manhole covers, you want wood or iron-clad, iron-clad is a little stronger, and of course it is a little more expensive." The potter asked.

"Iron-clad, how much silver." Old man Xiang is not short of silver, of course, safety first.

"The iron-clad ones cost at least three taels of silver, and it was difficult for us to get iron except for the blacksmith, and we needed to give some benefits to get it." The potter is also a real person, and he speaks out about the difficulties.

"Cheng, here are two taels of silver, when you send the manhole cover over, I'll give you another tael of silver." The old man took out a silver nude of two taels and handed it to the potter.

The potter nodded again and again, promising that it would be delivered within a week, and the deposit was given, and they had no worries about their work, sorted out their tools, and left with the people.

"Grandpa, why don't we get a dog?"

Xiangchu said that he also listened to the conversation between his grandfather and the potter just now, even if he has a manhole cover, there is always a way for people who want to do bad things.

"Okay, I just don't know where to sell puppies, we either don't raise them, if we want to raise them, we can raise a big dog." Old Man Xiang said.

Fu Bao's ears moved, where is there a dog, the spiritual power was radiated, and suddenly a spirit was struck, and she received a reminder from the trees and grass roots, there was a man who hated their family to death, and that man was the one who came to borrow silver last time.

"Grandpa, second grandpa is bad." Fu Bao pulled the old man's hand and said.

Old Man Xiang paused for a moment, didn't he talk about dogs, why did he become his second brother, no, there must be a reason why Fu Bao said this.

"Fubao, you tell grandpa why the second grandpa is broken." Old Man Xiang asked.

Fu Bao's spiritual power radiated again, but it was a pity that the trees and grass roots only absorbed the aura of Xianghan soil, but I didn't know why there was such a heavy aura of anger.

Fu Bao shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either, but Grandma Xiang guessed: "Could it be that you didn't lend him the silver, so you hold a grudge." ”

The old man shook his head, but he felt a little sad in his heart, he originally thought that the harmony was as good as ever, but he didn't expect that the flowers were similar every year, and the people were different every year.

"Fubao, brother will take you up the mountain, let's go to the mountain to see if there are any puppies." Xiang Chu said.

Fugui lightly slapped Xiangchu's head, and scolded with a smile: "There are no dogs on the mountain, only wolves." ”

Xiang Chu: "......"

The rich sister-in-law listened to them with a smile, but tied a rope to the bucket and began to draw water.

"Mother, I'll fetch two more buckets of water, and you can take out all the clothes you want to wash."

Grandma Xiang smiled and shook her head, this daughter-in-law is really anxious, she took out the clothes to be washed, then took the bench and washed it with the rich sister-in-law.

Sure enough, it is much more convenient to have well water, and there is no need to walk so many roads to wash by the river in the village, and there are many people by the river, and the clothes they wear in it are made of muslin, and it is not good to expose the filling.

Xiang Chu also scooped out all the water in the water tank at home, cleaned it with well water, and then began to pump well water until the two water tanks were full.

Then he pulled the bison to the well, and while washing the bison's body with water, he said happily: "Xiao Hei, I'll help you wash it first, and I'll wash it myself when you're done." ”

Bison Black: "Moo......"

When the sky was dark, Grandma Xiang took out the straw curtain covering the water tank, covered it at the mouth of the well, and tied it with hemp rope thinly, although she knew that it was useless, but at least she could comfort herself.

Fu Bao also fell asleep, but when it was completely dark, the bracelet in his hand turned back into a vine, and then flew out of the window, falling motionless on the grass curtain.

The moonlight at night was like a white jade plate, bright and bright, exuding a faint cold light, and a black shadow quietly approached the well of the old man's house.

You must know that for tonight, he was fully prepared, and on the first day of digging out the well water, he wanted to poison the well, but unfortunately there were too many people, and he didn't have a chance.

Today the potter finally left, and he took out the rat-medicine he had prepared, and took five packets in total, which was a good thing he had saved up for many years.

There was a straw curtain on the well, and the black shadow sneered, just such a straw curtain was used for a fart, he only needed to open a crack, and all the rats and medicine could be poured into the well.

It's just that when his hand touched the grass curtain, a black shadow flew up and crashed directly into his eye, only to feel a pain in his right eye, as if something had poked into his eye.

"Ah......h

The black shadow couldn't help but cry out loudly, covering his right eye with his hand, blood flowed out of his hand, and the cry alarmed Old Man Xiang and Fugui, who were not completely asleep, and the father and son opened the door of their house at the same time.

The dark shadow heard the movement from the courtyard, turned around and fled, and in the panic the rat-medicine fell to the ground, not even knowing, just want to get out of here as soon as possible.

Fugui lit the oil liangzi, opened the door of the courtyard, and looked out, under the bright moonlight, there seemed to be a figure in the distance.

Not good, Fugui became nervous, ran to his own well, and saw a few bags of things by the well at a glance, and when he picked it up, it was actually rat-medicine.
