Dressed as a cute kid with a farm: Pick up a brother to farm

Chapter 124 Return to the village, basket

Although the journey was not peaceful.

But there were many of them, all young and strong, and they managed to bring the food back safely.

However, these people who came back acted as if they had just escaped from the desert.

His skin was wrinkled and his voice was hoarse.

Hearing that there was water in the village, the burly men were all very excited, and many of them even shed tears.

The water we brought with us when we set out from Linyang County had long been used up no matter how we saved it. We had no idea how we made it through the entire journey.

They all thought that since they couldn't find water along the way, the village would also be out of water.

If they hadn't thought about their elderly and children at home, and hadn't held on to their last breath and were determined to die together with their loved ones, they might not have been able to come back.

After all, you can survive by eating grass when you are hungry, but if you are too thirsty, it will really be fatal!

——You can’t even chew grass to produce two drops of water!

It's so difficult!

If you don't have persistence in your heart, you will be in despair before you even reach the village entrance.

As a result, as soon as they returned to the village, they learned that there was an endless supply of water in the ancient well in the village, which surprised them and made them feel like they were reborn!

They almost used up all the water they drew from the well yesterday, except for what they needed.

Everyone was drinking happily and almost became like buckets.

Speaking of this, Meng Huaishao looked guilty.

Yesterday, it seemed, probably, possibly, that I was too tired and forgot to add water to the ancient well?

Meng Huaishao, who realized it later, suddenly became panicked.

This won't be a problem...

Niu Hongcai on the opposite side did not notice Meng Huaishao's guilty conscience and thought he was worried.

"It's really not safe outside the village."

Niu Hongcai frowned at the right time and spoke to Meng Huaishao cautiously.

"I'm here to remind you that if you have nothing to do, try not to leave the village."

"Your cousin is very pretty. No matter how she disguises herself, you can tell that she has plenty of food and drink. You can't take her out of the village. Otherwise, it will be very dangerous."

Meng Huaishao nodded. Since it concerned Ye Yaoyao's personal safety, he would not take any risks.

For the next period of time, he would not leave the village.

"The news that there is still enough water in the ancient well in our small mountain village must be kept secret and not disclosed to anyone."

"Otherwise, our village will be in danger."

Niu Hongcai spoke very seriously and Meng Huaishao also listened very carefully.

"I understand. I will keep it in mind. Thank you, Brother Cai, for reminding me!"

Meng Huaishao was very grateful.

He knew that Niu Hongcai came to his house so early to remind him, and this must have been the intention of the village chief and Grandma Niu.

Of course, Niu Hongcai made this trip sincerely, otherwise he wouldn't care about him so much.

Meng Huaishao is a grateful person.

He has benefited from everything that happened today, and I will definitely give back in the future.

"By the way, remember to fetch water early today."

After Niu Hongcai finished explaining what happened, he reminded Meng Huaishao again.

"what happened?"

Meng Huaishao's heart skipped a beat.

I forgot to drink water yesterday, so is there really trouble today?

"Today, the water in the ancient well seems to have decreased a lot. In order to ensure that everyone has water to drink, the village has sent people to guard it today and limit the supply first."

Niu Hongcai's reminder was well-intentioned, but Meng Huaishao felt very nervous.

The well is guarded by someone, so it will be difficult to add water later...

What to do...

I sent Niu Hongcai away anxiously and went to check the porridge in the kitchen. It was almost ready.

Meng Huaishao glanced at Ye Yaoyao, who was still sleeping, so he didn't disturb her and ate first.

After he had eaten, Ye Yaoyao, who was still asleep, went to work in the yard.

The mud bricks I made yesterday are almost ready to be demoulded.

After everything was demoulded, Meng Huaishao was about to build a wall when he heard a childish voice.

"Guo Guo!"

Ye Yaoyao leaned on the window and shouted to Meng Huaishao outside.

Seeing Meng Huaishao come to his senses, Ye Yaoyao smiled, then felt aggrieved again.

"Guoguo, Yaoyao is hungry!"

Seeing Ye Yaoyao wake up, Meng Huaishao strode over, and when he heard her say she was hungry, he quickened his pace.

"Yaoyao, wait a moment. I'll go get you some water to wash up. After you wash up, you can eat."

"Ok!"

Ye Yaoyao nodded obediently, lifted the mosquito net, crawled back into bed, and waited for Meng Huaishao obediently.

There is hot water in the pot and a bowl of porridge is steaming on top.

Meng Huaishao first changed the porridge bowl and placed it on the table to cool, then added warm water to the basin, took the handkerchief and went to the room.

He wiped Ye Yaoyao's hands and face carefully. There was some sweat on her neck, so he wiped that clean too.

After washing up, he changed Ye Yaoyao into a clean little skirt and then carried her out of bed.

"Yaoyao, it's time to go eat~"

"good!"

Ye Yaoyao nodded, and walked out with the support of the wall. Meng Huaishao followed her holding the washbasin.

The porridge on the table was still hot and Ye Yaoyao was very hungry, so Meng Huaishao simply took another bowl and scooped porridge for Ye Yaoyao one spoonful at a time.

Sure enough, the porridge cooled down much faster.

Only after Ye Yaoyao had eaten her fill did Meng Huaishao tell her about Niu Hongcai's visit.

Ye Yaoyao didn't have any special feelings about the villagers returning.

Because recently, everyone has been going out less and I don’t meet many people that often.

However, Ye Yaoyao was shocked by the fact that no water was added yesterday. Her first reaction was -

"It's over, we've made a mess!"

Then, he looked at Meng Huaishao with a helpless and worried look.

The baby's eyes are watery, but tinged with sadness.

"So, what should we do?"

Ye Yaoyao was very anxious and her brows were furrowed.

Meng Huaishao stretched out his hands, smoothed the little guy's brows and comforted him.

"It's okay. Since we can still get water today, even though the amount is limited, it also shows that the ancient well has a good ability to rehydrate. There won't be any big problems."

"Oh."

Ye Yaoyao smiled again?

"That's good!"

Ye Yaoyao was relieved, but Meng Huaishao felt heavy in his heart.

Because he understood that what he said was just words to comfort Ye Yaoyao.

Actually, what he said was not wrong.

Because Ye Yaoyao replenishes water every day, the soil around the ancient well has always remained very moist.

Even if you forget to refill the well with water one day, the ancient well will not dry up all of a sudden.

The water that usually seeps into the ground and has not yet dried up will slowly fill the ancient well.

Of course, this is only temporary. If there is no subsequent water replenishment and the groundwater is insufficient, the ancient well will still face the prospect of drying up.

Ye Yaoyao and Meng Huaishao agreed to go and check out the situation later.

No matter how much you listen to others, it is not as real as seeing it yourself.

Having agreed, the two of them didn't delay any longer and stood up to leave.

Because the weather was getting hotter and Ye Yaoyao was really afraid of the heat, Meng Huaishao still carried her in a backpack.

The backpack is breathable but not tight to the body, so it is cooler.
