The water is coming!

With Lao Xu's excited voice, the courtyard instantly boiled.

"Hey, there's really water?"

"Damn, Xu Laosan is terrible, can the water in this well be pumped up automatically?"

"It can't be some kind of immortal magic, right? Otherwise, how is this possible? ”

The neighbors were not calm at all, and they were all excited.

is even more excited than the old Xu family, and even has any speculation.

The main thing is that this move has been going on for many years, and if it can be shared, then everyone can learn from it.

In this way, it will be much more convenient for everyone to get water in the future.

It's better to say that it's summer, but if it's winter, the wells are all icy, and if you want to get water, you have to use a kettle to water it.

Besides, fetching water on the side of the laundry sink in the winter is cold to death.

So, who wouldn't want to be able to get water at home? How convenient!

"Dad, where is the second floor? Be careful with the rebar under your feet."

At present, the second floor is only formwork and rebar, and no concrete is poured, so you have to be careful when you go up.

When he heard many years of talking, Lao Xu had already let the second child go to the second floor, and soon good news came.

And the speed of the water flow on the second floor is not small, so it can be said that it is a complete success.

He Yuzhu heard the voice, and his face was full of disbelief: Damn, he really let this be done for many years, won't his house have running water in the future?

"No, I have to get tap water at home!" Xu Damao thought of it, he was very jealous, and he would never allow anyone to be better than him.

Especially for many years, since he returned from the army as a soldier, he has stolen the limelight of the courtyard.

caused him Xu Damao to become a projectionist, and in the courtyard, there was no splash at all.

What's more, last time Li Baoguo's house, Wang Xiaohong and other things, Xu Damao was ruthlessly crushed for many years.

But this time about the tap water, he Xu Damao can't be left behind.

The middle of the bangs are also very envious, and they have a little abacus in their hearts, flattering them to chat with Zhou Hongmei and them.

Zhou Hongmei, who was happy, was indeed very proud when she heard everyone's praise and praise.

The third child of her family fought for her, but she really didn't know about the automatic pump.

Everyone knows about water pipes, bamboo pipes.

The whole production process, the aunts and aunts in the courtyard know, rounding, about the whole courtyard knows.

Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi also smiled, Qin Huairu pursed her lips and didn't speak, but the smugness in her eyes flashed and was still seen by many neighbors.

Everyone didn't say anything, if they were other yellow flower girls, they really couldn't be so faceless and skinless as Qin Huairu.

She has been rescued by heroes for many years, and she has also been used as a cow and a horse for him, at least in the recent past period, she has worked hard and complained, and she has not complained at all, she has done everything very well, and no one in the old Xu family has not given her a thumbs up.

After hearing his second brother's voice for many years, he immediately laughed.

So he and his eldest brother covered the well.

This wellhead uses a very heavy self-made cement cover, and after the cover is covered, it is tightly sealed, and there is no way to pour things into the well from the side of the manhole cover. ….

Because of the ingenious design of the wellhead, this well has only been used by one family for many years, so he naturally has to take precautions.

It's just that he didn't tell anyone about it.

Lao Xu They can't understand it, and they won't ask too much.

"Let's go home and eat."

After finishing it, it was getting late, and he laughed for many years.

However, the bangs stopped him with a smile for many years, "For many years, after eating later, come to the house to sit down and have two drinks?" ”

The latter was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile:

"Okay, no problem."

For the sudden overture in the bangs, he didn't have to think about it to know what the other party wanted to do.

If he could have two drinks, of course he wouldn't mind.

Although he doesn't really like to drink, it's okay to have a drink once in a while.

What's more, Lao Liu still pays, which is even more problematic.

Yi Zhonghai also suddenly spoke, and asked Lao Liu with a smile, "Lao Liu, I also have a bottle of Lao Baigan here that has been hidden for a few years, don't you mind me coming along?" ”

Liu Haizhong smiled and pointed to many years, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate, I've invited him for many years, and I have to ask him if it's okay." ”

The question of who is in charge and who is second, although it has been determined in the ranking of the uncle of the courtyard, this is an ordinary question of inviting guests to dinner, so it is natural to ask whether the guests mind or not.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai looking at him, he shook his head and smiled for many years:

"I only bring one mouth, who else does the second uncle invite, I don't dare to talk more."

After that, he shouted at Xu Xiaoqian and the others, and walked to the front yard.

Lao Liu and Yi Zhonghai behind them scolded secretly, but they knew each other.

The old Xu family in the front yard, the family is very happy today, the well is connected with water, and there is another one now, that is, the water from the well is connected to the front yard.

Lao Xu's sudden proposal, the atmosphere at the table suddenly froze, and everyone looked forward to many years.

Especially Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi, they also want to use tap water, so they don't have to go to the laundry sink to queue up at that time.

For many years, he shook his head and said:

"Dad, I also want to bring water from the well here, but I can't."

Zhou Hongmei was disappointed and said hurriedly:

"Is there no way around it?"

"Yes!" After many years of sandwiching chopsticks and beans, Qin Huairu's craftsmanship is really good, which is delicious.

"Then you can say it quickly, it's really urgent!" Zhou Hongmei's words made many years funny and distressed.

Lao Xu and the others were also happy, gnawing on the head of the nest and listening to the words for many years.

Pick up water from the middle courtyard to the front yard, it's too far.

The water pressure is not enough, and if you take it, it is estimated that the faucet is also dripping, which is useless.

The solution is simple, just dig a well in the house in the front yard.

Unlike the spacious middle courtyard, the front yard is not as spacious.

So, if you want to dig a well in the yard, it's not practical.

The best thing to do is to dig a well in the house.

"Isn't this too much of a space-taker? The family is already small, and if you have to dig another well, where can you still stand? ”

Hearing Fan Zhaodi's words, her man Xu Shishi scolded:

"You know what? Just listen to what the third brother said, didn't you see that your father and mother didn't squeak? ”….

As soon as he opened his mouth, Xu Wumei and Xu Xiaoqian, the four little guys, all looked at him with incredulous faces.

Especially Xu Weidong, when did he remember his father to be so domineering in front of his mother? It doesn't seem to be!

Lao Xu and they were also very surprised, what happened to the second child today?

Can't get by?

Fan Zhaodi's eyes widened, is this his man?

For many years, he gave his second brother a look of self-begging, and then continued to explain:

"Actually, it's very simple, there's not a big water tank in the kitchen, it takes up a lot of space, you can move it away and dig a well directly here......

"Third brother, what if there is no water underground?"

As soon as his sister spoke, Zhou Hongmei slapped her on the back of the head:

"Crow's mouth, don't talk like that next time, do you hear?"

Xiaomei, she was very aggrieved, she just asked a question that everyone was concerned about, why did she beat her?

She wasn't particularly smart in the first place, and if she continued to fight, she would be even more stupid.

"Okay, don't look aggrieved, Mom didn't work hard at all, don't think I don't know." Many years glared at her, debunked her and said:

"I'm worried and sad because something didn't happen, in fact, this is the stupidest idea, Xiaomei, the third brother will teach you a sentence, you have to learn to be good in the future, do you hear?"

"Uh-huh, I see!" She nodded obediently, she was very willing to listen to the third brother's words.

"Third uncle, we also know!"

The three little ones giggled and responded unneatly, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became much happier.

After laughing, Lao Xu concluded:

"That's digging another well and having running water at home, right?"

"Dad is right, it would be nice to dig a well in the house......"

"And how much does the automatic pump you bought today cost?" Will it be expensive? ”

Zhou Hongmei, who is in charge of the family's finances, first thinks of the issue of expenditure.

When everyone heard this, they all fell silent again.

"That's not expensive, how much is it, you can't tell the outside, because, I guess the first and second masters will definitely mention this to me later......"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Xu suddenly became serious and said:

"The third child, as the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. You can't shout that it's too expensive, just make a hard-earned money, if it's too expensive, you'll be poked in the back......"

Although Lao Xu has no academic qualifications, it does not mean that Lao Xu is uneducated.

Just like those so-called educated people in later generations, there is no bottom line in doing things, words and deeds are not stopped, and they seem to be unrestrained, but they will leave a bad impression of being high-flying.

Cultured people, on the other hand, know a lot of conventions or explicitly prescribed behavioral norms that have been passed down from the past, and root these norms in their hearts as a kind of action consciousness.

To put it simply, a cultured person must be a cultured person.

A well-educated person knows how to queue up when waiting for the bus, knows not to waste when eating, and always pays attention to his words and deeds.

Lao Xu's reprimand made him cry and laugh for many years, and at the same time, he also learned that not all of these ordinary people at the foot of the imperial city are really 'illiterate'.

"Dad, don't worry, I don't have the idea of cheating people, it's you who think of me too badly." ….

For his explanation, Lao Xu snorted coldly and bit his head, "You are my son, I know what you are going to fart as soon as you pout your ass, when have I wronged you?" ”

"Grandpa, when did the third uncle fart? Hey, it stinks! ”

Suddenly, Xu Weidong answered, and everyone laughed.

Zhou Hongmei even patted Lao Xu's shoulder and scolded with a smile: "Look at you, what do you say when you eat, do you have to say this?" How else to eat? ”

At this time, Lao Xu, don't be so depressed, especially after many years of smiling so happily.

After dinner, he dragged Lao Xu to the backyard for many years.

The latter was not very happy to go, the reason was that the second uncle of the family did not invite him, what did he do?

And the reason for pulling Lao Xu for many years is also very simple, that is, let Lao Xu see, is there any cheater for him, who is a son?

These words silenced Lao Xugan, and at the same time his alcohol addiction also came out.

To say that you don't like to drink, that's impossible.

It's not that I don't like it, it's that I don't have the money to drink.

As the saying goes, earning money to support your family is not just talking, but you have to do what you say, do what you say, and persevere.

The eldest Xu Danian and the second Xu Shishi looked at their younger brother with blank eyes, but their younger brother pulled their father and left as if he hadn't seen them.

Fan Zhaodi stepped on her man's foot, regardless of whether he was in pain or not, and continued to teach Xu Weidong to count as if nothing happened.

Xu Shi, who wanted to cry without tears, didn't dare to shout out, and said that he had provoked whom?

In the backyard bangs, when the father and son arrived for many years, Yi Zhonghai had already drunk with Lao Liu.

"Lao Xu is here, hurry up, please take a seat"

Liu Haizhong looked back, and immediately got up enthusiastically and invited.

And let Lao Xu go to the main seat to sit, isn't this embarrassing for Lao Xu?

The people of the capital understand these conformist rules best, so Lao Xu Wan refused and did not sit on the seat of the Rausch.

Yi Haizhong sat with a smile on his face, not moving at all, but he scolded his bangs in his heart.

Meow, do you know how to be a man? Where did he put him, the first master of the courtyard?

Actually, whether Liu Haizhong will be a person or not is quite mysterious.

Sometimes he is quite good at things and is a good person, but more often, he will make mistakes.

After making trouble for a while, Lao Xu and the third child of his family sat down, and the bangs began to pour wine again.

That enthusiasm, everyone was confused when they saw it: What's wrong with Lao Liu Jin'er?

It doesn't matter, Yi Haizhong is not next to him, presumably Lao Liu will be more or less restrained.

There were three bottles of wine on the table, all of which were Lao Baigan, and it was obvious that this was the bulk Lao Baigan that the supply and marketing cooperatives had brought back.

Of course, this thing is not cheap, six cents a pound, and you have to have a wine ticket to buy it.

Wine stamps are more valuable and harder to get hold of than food stamps.

Of course, Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai are both seventh-level workers in the rolling mill, especially the latter, who will be upgraded to eighth-level workers in a year or two, with higher wages and better treatment.

In addition to Lao Baigan, there are also two dishes of appetizers, one is fried peanuts and the other is cucumbers.

What kind of appetizers such as pig ears and sauce elbows are impossible for ordinary families in this era.

Besides, it is estimated that even if the leader comes, Liu Haizhong will not be able to get such a good appetizer.

After sitting down for many years, I ate peanuts vigorously, took a sip, and bragged to everyone.

Before he came, he had told Lao Xu that now the father and son are only responsible for drinking and chatting, and nothing else.

As for what they want to do in the bangs, wait for them to say it themselves.

Lao Xu scolded with a smile and said, you will be clever, okay, just listen to you.

So, at this time, the father and son are really just chatting and drinking, busy and hot, and the atmosphere at the table is quite good.

Until the three bottles of wine went down at a speed visible to the naked eye, the bangs couldn't hold back.

(End of chapter).
