82 The village was cut off from water

Master Li finished eating konjac tofu and sighed: "Girl, this is the konjac tofu you made?" ”

Lin Qianqian nodded.

"It tastes good, so let's do it, you come back in three days, I'll rush to work as soon as possible, and see if I can help you make it as soon as possible." Master Li smashed his mouth and said slowly.

"Good!" Lin Qianqian happily responded.

The old man was probably willing to speed up the construction period because she gave him konjac tofu, no matter what the reason, as long as the stone mill could be made as soon as possible, then they wouldn't have to work so hard to make kink taro paste.

After the pattern was determined, Lin Qianqian went to the backyard to select stones under the guidance of the young man.

She pointed to a piece of granite about the size of the stone mill she wanted, and said, "This one, this kind of stone can be polished very smooth, and the texture is hard, and it will not be a problem to use it for decades after the stone grinding is made." ”

After some contact, the young man has become Lin Qianqian's fan brother, he looked at Lin Qianqian with a look of admiration, "Girl, you said that you are from Quxi Village, why don't I think it is not like it at all, the stone mill you painted, even my grandfather has never seen it, and this stone, I have also heard my grandfather say many times before I know that this stone is the best, but you can see at a glance that this stone is good, you are really amazing." ”

"My name is Lin Qianqian, this is my younger brother and sister, and we are indeed from Quxi Village." Lin Qianqian introduced several younger brothers and sisters.

Lin Mingming and the dragon and phoenix fetus nodded in unison and said, "What are we lying to you for?" We are indeed from Quxi Village. ”

The young man touched his head embarrassedly, "I didn't say that you lied, my name is Li Chengxuan, just call me Ah Xuan." ”

Everyone was a young man, and after a few people exchanged names, they couldn't help but chat, and they became a piece after a while.

Before leaving, Li Chengxuan blinked his eyes and whispered to a few people: "You can go back with confidence, I will definitely supervise my grandfather to finish the stone grinding you want quickly, and ensure that you can use it in three days." ”

Lin Qianqian couldn't help but laugh.

This Li Chengxuan is as pure as a blank piece of paper, he eats inside and outside so quickly, and supervises his grandfather's work?

Fortunately, they were good people, otherwise he would have counted the money happily if he had bought him.

She glanced back at Master Li, who was chiseling stones, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Master Li is a good grandfather, and the survival of the family has become a problem, but he can still protect Li Chengxuan so well and make him so pure as snow.

Until they walked far away, Li Chengxuan was still waving vigorously at the door of the thatched house.

Lin Qianqian has finished everything she wants to do today, and she is in a very happy mood.

Several people returned to Lin Dafa's blacksmith shop, and after meeting with Father Lin and Aunt Lin, the family hurried to their home.

Tomorrow morning, I will send 300 catties of konjac tofu, which is not a small project.

In the case of complete materials, the whole family can make more than 100 catties in an hour, and now it is necessary to ship 300 catties, that is, it will take three hours.

It's noon when I get home now, and if I do it for three hours, it's probably dark.

Lin Qianqian was thinking about the next work, and when he was about to leave the city, he specially bought some more candles.

She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to finish 300 catties of konjac tofu in the afternoon, so she could only fight at night.

All the way back to the village from the entrance of the village, the villagers I met on the way greeted the Lin family warmly.

"Yo, Da Zhuang, is this going to the county? Why do you move so many barrels? ”

"Oh, Da Zhuang, you won't go to the Tai River on the other side of the mountain to fetch water, will you? You're still smart, you can save a lot of money. ”

"Oh, big girl, how did you bring back so many empty barrels? Can't the Tay River fetch water? My family is still going to go over there to fetch water, your grandma's family is so inauthentic, she actually rushed to sell water at the knots when the whole village has no water to drink, how can there be such a person. ”

"That's it, Mr. Lin usually looks like a good person, why is he so selfish when he comes to money?"

"Hmph, people's nature is like this, if she wasn't like this, she would have done something to hook up with his father and force his mother to death? Tell me who can do such a shameless thing? ”

"That's right, Mrs. Lin is really not authentic, alas, two buckets of water for a penny, my family can't afford to eat such expensive water, I'd better go home and call my man to go to the Tai River to fetch water."

"Alas, who said it wasn't, but it's too far to the Tai River, and it will take half an hour to come and go, and it's all at the gate of the county."

"That's no way, my family doesn't even have rice in the pot, where can I afford to drink two buckets of water for a penny?"

......

Lin Qianqian listened to the words of the villagers and was surprised.

It turned out that the puddle in the riverbed was scooped up this morning, and when the later people went to pick it up, they didn't see any water seeping out.

Everyone thought that the water seeped slowly, but at noon, someone went to look and found that the puddle was still the little muddy water left in the morning, and there was nothing more.

Only then did everyone know that the riverbed was really drought, and there was no more water coming out.

At this time, everyone can only count on the only well in the village.

The well was dug by the Lin family for generations without knowing how many generations of ancestors had dug it, and when the river was completely drought, the well in Mrs. Lin's house was still bubbling with water.

In order to be able to pick up water to drink, everyone has been extremely flattering to Mrs. Lin for the past half a day.

But Mrs. Lin's face changed faster than she turned a book, and she asked the people who went to her house to fetch water to pay for water, and two buckets of water would cost a penny.

In such a situation, the villagers complained and specially invited the lieutenant chief to reason.

The chief said something bad, but Mrs. Lin's family was completely unmoved.

In the end, the lieutenant had no choice.

The well in Mrs. Lin's house is indeed someone else's, and people sell water to collect money, he can't make sense with reason, what else can he do?

A person who doesn't even care about the affection of the villagers is useless to talk about any reason.

Although Mrs. Lin's behavior has caused a lot of criticism, there are still many people who are in a hurry to buy water, which makes Mrs. Lin more determined.

She also sent her eldest grandson, Lin Da'an, to fetch water at the well.

People who come to her house to buy water can only use their buckets to fetch water, and she is afraid that if someone specially picks up a large bucket to fetch water, then their family will lose money.

After Lin Qianqian understood the cause and effect of the matter, he didn't know whether to say that his titular grandmother was smart or confused.

For a little money, the whole village was offended, whether this deal was worth it or not, I'm afraid only Mrs. Lin herself knew.

But Mrs. Lin is not her real grandmother after all, and she can even be said to be an enemy, and the enemy dies by himself, can she stop it? She is not the Virgin Mary.

She was too lazy to care about the death of Mrs. Lin's family, but she couldn't help but worry in her heart.

Their family needs a lot of water to make konjac tofu, but after the river is completely cut off, water use is a big problem.
