Chapter 208: The Great Drought (2)
At dawn, when Uncle Feng was still endlessly carrying water and constantly pouring river water into other people's fields, Uncle Feng also remembered himself, can he also pick up water for his own fields? However, he had no land, so he could only carry water for the people to save the seedlings.
The fields on the mountain in the autumn are also withered at this time, and in a few days, this great crop is very likely to die. And Hua Bo was even more eager to do so, and at that time he still wanted to light a fire in the grass field of Shaoqiu, and burn all his crops to the ground, so that there would be no harvest, otherwise his wife would never believe that he was a fool. As long as it is proved that this Shaoqiu is a fool, then the probability of Xiaohua marrying into this Shaoqiu house is almost zero, otherwise it will take some trouble for his wife to make trouble.
Hua Bo's most worrying thing is that Uncle Feng carries water for the Shaoqiu field, as long as the river water is poured in, all the seedlings are saved, and this large area of seedlings will be harvested in sight, and he will mercilessly compare his crops with his own crops. In this way, if his wife believes that Shaoqiu is a fool, it will be tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger.
At this time, Hua Bo stayed in his own field, and in the adjacent Shaoqiu field, the breath of death was already spreading. In this way, it won't be long before the seedlings of Shaoqiu will be finished, so that Xiaohua will not marry into this poor family, which can be described as a great creation for Xiaohua. Otherwise, if you don't have food or clothing for the rest of your life, it is not impossible to fall into Fireworks Alley in the future, so this Shaoqiu can really be said to be too poisonous, even if he is dead, he has to climb out of the grave with difficulty and cut him twice.
But wouldn't it be better if it could be prevented? He quickly rushed to Uncle Feng's side from the mountain, and saw that Uncle Feng was carrying water, and it was inconvenient to disturb for a while, after all, it was important to save the seedlings, so he quietly sat on the side and looked at this Uncle Feng.
I don't know what's going on, this thin old man, but his strength is so amazing, that Hua Bo doesn't dare to talk to him at this time, for fear of accidentally offending him for a while, he will raise his fist and beat himself, isn't it fatal? But for the sake of Xiaohua, in order to put Shaoqiu down, he didn't care about anything, leaned over, made a gesture, and said something too good to be good, and there was a smile on his face, no matter how fierce a person is, he won't hit a smiling person.
It happened that Uncle Feng was tired from work, so he sat aside to rest, and saw Hua Bo sitting next to him, and also glanced at him at this time, "Is there something wrong?" Uncle Feng asked.
"It's nothing, but it's just to tell you, don't carry water for this young autumn field," Hua Bo said mysteriously, "I had a dream yesterday that if you carry water for this young autumn field, every load of water you pick up, your life will be reduced by a year." ”
"Is there such a thing?" Uncle Feng asked indifferently.
"It's true, it's a puppy to lie to you." Hua Bo said confidently.
"Well, I know, thank you for reminding me," Uncle Feng took a puff of cigarette and spit it out again, quite complacent for a while, and saw that Hua Bo was still not leaving, so he asked again, "Is there anything else?" ”
"I would like to ask you to carry a load of water for my field," said Hua Bo, "or my family of three will starve to death." ”
When Hua Bo said this, he sat next to Uncle Feng at this time, whining and crying, hating himself for not being as strong as Uncle Feng, otherwise, why would he beg for help, and why would he worry about not having anything to eat? At this time, I am afraid that Uncle Feng will not agree to him, so that the seedlings in Datian will be considered dead, and at that time, the jokes of Shaoqiu will still be secondary, and he will be hungry, and his wife does not know if he will do something shameful?
"It's okay, in order to repay your reminder, I can pick up a load of water for you for free, which is enough to make your family not worry about food." Uncle Feng replied.
"Thank you so much for that daring," said Hua Bo, "I even want to call you grandpa at this time." ”
"No need, I have to work, this is not accompanied, you can do it yourself." Uncle Feng dropped these words, then picked up the bucket again and walked to the river.
Let's say that after Shaoqiu came back from the west, the people in the deserted village did not come forward to greet him, and when such a person was not born in the deserted village, not only did he not care, but without the existence of this person, his life could be said to be better. However, why can't Shaoqiu live, fortunately, God blessed, he came back from the western sky, and the people of the deserted village saw him, and they wanted to see if he had a shadow, and the legend is that ghosts have no shadow. For this matter, it made Shaoqiu weird and uncomfortable, "Are you annoying?" Whenever people want to verify their shadows, Shaoqiu asks in his heart, but he doesn't dare to say it, otherwise, he may make himself even more uncomfortable.
I don't know who came up with the bad idea, but the day of the verification of the shadow, it was a rainy day, it was cloudless, but in the blink of an eye, it was cloudy. Seeing this, some people said that it would not be verified and that they would do it when the sky cleared, but people said that they didn't have such good patience, so it was better to do it in one go, so why bother?
"He has no shadow." Someone said in surprise.
"yes." I can't see his shadow either.
The people dispersed in a hurry, and no one wanted to stay with such an ominous person, so they went back to their respective houses, "If you are out of the ghost, close the door of the house quickly, and you are not allowed to go out until daylight, and you must not go out of the house door half a step at night, otherwise you will be killed!" People are reprimanding their children like that.
When this word reached Uncle Feng's ears, it made him believe that Hua Bo's dream was more true, and at this time, he said that he had carried water for him, even if he urinated in his field, it was also taboo. Can't you carry water for this young autumn, otherwise, pick a load of water and live for a year, wouldn't it be worth the loss?
Uncle Feng was afraid of this, and when he was carrying water for Hua Bo Datian, he was afraid that he would pee, and Shaoqiu's field was not far from this Hua Bo's, in case he soaked a soak of urine in Shaoqiu's field because he drank too much water, wouldn't it be equivalent to picking up water for it? Therefore, when carrying water for Hua Bo's family, Uncle Feng still didn't dare to drink water, and he was thirsty when he was thirsty, which was better than folding his life.
When Shaoqiu knew that Uncle Feng was carrying water for the flower uncle, he knew that his field was also dry, and if he didn't water it, the harvest would be in vain. And there is no food to eat, this is also a big bad thing, I have to think of a way, knowing that Uncle Feng can carry water, and a load of water is enough to water a field, so I found this Uncle Feng. However, for some reason, as soon as Uncle Feng saw this Shaoqiu, he waved his flat pole and drove it like a livestock, and he couldn't let Shaoqiu get close to him by half a step.
