After the locust disaster, my fairy reincarnation identity was exposed
Chapter 407 Drainage ditch
Xiang Xinjin and the others are going to check the drainage ditch, and Xiang Ci is going too.
She was wearing a raincoat, a bamboo hat, and three-inch-high wooden clogs. Like a cute little penguin, she followed Yekai and the others toward the village.
Everyone in the village, both adults and children, were playing in the water. They were dressed up like this, which seemed a bit grand.
Xiang Wan and Xiang Ling were also wearing coir raincoats and bamboo hats, which made the adults say hello without saying a word when they wanted to say Xiaoqi.
Xiang Wan was so ladylike that the villagers felt that pouring water on Xiao Si was an insult to her.
Xiang Ling is too cold. If you pour water on her, will she get beaten up on the spot?
Xiaoqi, I want to play with her, but I feel like I’m not worthy.
It's very contradictory to not deserve it, but to want to get close to her and gain some benefits.
Xiang Ci felt the villagers' love for the rain. She stepped on her clogs in the rain and was so happy that she wanted to dance the tango.
Fortunately, the clogs were too high. If she stepped on them and jumped around, she would definitely fall.
This seemed to seal her, preventing her from being overly happy, and she followed Ye Kai and the others with a smile on her face.
The ground was already wet, and water gradually accumulated. Raindrops hit it, and the pits disappeared one by one.
The water flows to low places, into the drainage ditch, and then flows out of the village through the drainage ditch into the pond. This is the drainage method in the village.
Although drainage ditches were left during the construction of the city wall, the rainwater was so heavy that it was obviously impossible to drain it out at once.
After all, no one thought that it would rain so hard.
If it's only for one day, there's nothing to worry about. You can just flow and do it the next day.
Now it is going to rain for three days. If the drainage ditch is not repaired, the whole village will be flooded.
Xiang Ci touched his nose awkwardly when he thought about what he said. He had been talking about it all day long if he had known it, but who knew it would come true.
Yes, Xiang Ci has accepted the function of his golden words.
After walking around the village, the drainage ditches were in good condition.
By the time we walked back, the rain had accumulated to an inch high.
The villagers who were bathing happily in the rain and laughing happily have dispersed and gone back to their homes.
As the water flow increases, the drainage ditches are overwhelmed and more water accumulates on the ground.
Xiang Ci watched helplessly as the rain soaked three inches of her clogs and covered the insteps of her feet.
At this moment, she didn't know whether to say something or not.
Is this planning to cause a flood in three days?
No.
Xiang Ci really wanted to shout loudly, but he was powerless.
She looked up at the sky and wanted to discuss with the Dragon King of the East China Sea whether the three-day measurement could be turned into one day.
But she didn't dare to speak, for fear of saying the wrong thing and causing something else to happen.
Hey, it's hard enough.
"Why are you sighing?" Xiang Wan put on the bamboo hat for her, "There seems to be a lot of water. That's because it rained so hard that it couldn't be drained out, so the water accumulated."
"Once the rain stops and the rainwater drains away, you will find that there is not enough rainwater to fill the pond."
That's the truth, but now the rain is falling so fast that the drainage ditches can't drain it out, and it accumulates in the village, which is a bit troublesome.
"Hey!"
There was a gong sound, and Xiang Ci looked towards the ancestral hall where the sound was coming from.
Most of the men in the village were already walking towards the ancestral hall wearing raincoats and bamboo hats.
Xiang Ling said calmly: "Go and have a look."
Xiang Ci was surprised that she wanted to watch the excitement. In fact, she wanted to watch it too, so they walked to the ancestral hall together.
Many villagers rushed to the ancestral hall. When they arrived, they saw Xiang Renyong beating the gong. Mr. Xiang stood at the door of the ancestral hall with a serious face.
Xiang Ci frowned slightly. When they came out before, grandpa didn't come out. Now that he came out, he must be talking about drainage.
Sure enough, Mr. Xiang said: "This world has been dry for three months. The old Dragon King of the East China Sea took pity on us and gave us rain. This is a great thing."
"But the old Dragon King manages too many places, and he temporarily neglected our walled village, which is why the heavy and rapid rain accumulated water in the village."
"You can't blame the Old Dragon King for this. You can only blame me for not thinking carefully at the beginning, which is why I failed the Old Dragon King's good intentions."
"We built the city wall. If the water accumulates, we have to do it ourselves."
"So, everyone picked up shovels and hoes and went to clean the gutters together to remove all the accumulated water."
"Clean up our Xiangjia Village into a better village, and let the rainwater from the Old Dragon King become the nectar for our crops."
"Grow good crops and have a bumper harvest, and build a Dragon King temple for the old Dragon King next year."
"OK?"
Xiang Renzhou and Xiang Renhe immediately said "good", and other clan elders also said "good".
One said yes, and the rest said yes.
"Okay, clean the gutters and get the water out."
"All the water flowing out flows into the pond. Now that our fields have water, we can definitely grow rice."
"Bless me, the Purifying Vase Queen!"
"Old Dragon King bless you!"
Looking at the villagers who were in high spirits, Xiang Ci smacked his tongue, Grandpa is really good.
Not only did she take the blame for her fault, she also beautified the old Dragon King, and even told her what she had said at the dinner table. She would build a Dragon King temple next year to fulfill the Dragon King's wishes.
If we want to make the villagers live a better life, we need not only a Dragon King Temple, but also a bumper harvest.
It seems that after three days of rain, she will work hard to water everyone with spiritual spring water every night so that everyone can have a good harvest.
Otherwise, I'm really afraid that before the Dragon King Temple is built, the old Dragon King will worry about her lies.
Xiang Ci didn't dare to think too much. The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became. He hurriedly stepped aside and made way for the villagers to clean the drainage ditch.
There are drainage ditches outside every house in the village, and they extend into the pond.
Now that the drainage ditches are full, we need to dig deeper and not let the silt block them, otherwise the rainwater will not be able to drain out.
Furthermore, if some areas are too high, a new drainage ditch must be dug for drainage.
The men in the village are cleaning the drainage ditches in the village, and the women are cleaning the drainage ditches in their yards.
Whether it is the road in the yard or on the highway, it is all mud. After being washed away by the rain and stepped on by everyone, the hard spots will become slippery.
This is a bad road, but if you step on it, it will be a puddle of mud.
Not to mention that you can’t pull out the clogs once you step on them, even if you step on them barefoot, you still have to pull them out.
The villagers who had welcomed the rain before were all serious now. After all, the rain was too heavy and exceeded their imagination.
I feel that Xiang Ci, who has good intentions but does bad things, is feeling miserable.
Xiang Wan and Xiang Ling immediately grabbed her and went home: "Go home first."
Xiang Ci, who returned home, stood under the eaves and looked at the downpour, murmuring: "Can it rain less?"
Unfortunately, the rain is still pouring down, and there is no sign of it reducing at all.
Xiang Ci let out a long sigh: "It seems like it was really unintentional."
Suddenly, a picture flashed before her eyes.
