The Pretty Military Wife

Liang Xinyue called Ding Shiqing and Long Xiaomei, and took out the sketch of the entire greenhouse.

It would be best if we could dig a well, but if we want the well water to irrigate every piece of land, we have to do our best to plan the layout.

Liang Xinyue, Captain Liu, Brother Liu and others climbed up and down to check the height of every piece of land.

Liang Xinyue planned to use ditches for irrigation after pumping up the well water, but the ditch cannot be just dug out, because it cannot store water and the stored water will still seep in.

Therefore, Liang Xinyue planned to build a canal paved with cement.

To invest in materials, you need funds. To use money, you need to invest as little as possible and make it play a big role.

Liang Xinyue spent two days making a chart of the plan. The points of the three wells were not on a straight line.

We also have to take into account the irrigation of every piece of land and the land on the hillsides on both sides.

Liang Xinyue decided to build a capital N-shaped canal in the entire ditch, so as to take care of the water needs of the mountains on both sides.

However, once a well is dug, water has to come out. If not, it has to be pumped out.

So, Liang Xinyue didn’t understand whether this well could be dug or how to dig it?

The plan was made here, and Liang Xinyue took the opportunity to give it to Director Ren to look at while delivering the food.

Because this time the pilot greenhouse planting in Xinshui Village was led by Liang Xinyue, sent by the Provincial Agricultural Research Institute, and it was a collaboration with the County Agricultural Bureau. It was agreed before that Liang Xinyue would be responsible for the technical aspects of the planting this time.

But other links must be coordinated and responsible by the Agricultural Bureau.

After communicating with Director Ren, Mr. Lin also brought his son to check the place and determine the location for digging the well.

Liang Xinyue and Director Ren were also called in for discussion.

It may be possible to dig a well to get water from an underground river, but the water from the well may not be much.

Captain Lin checked with an instrument he brought and said that there was water.

The well may need to be drilled at least 600 to 800 meters.

Liang Xinyue didn't understand the professional words they were saying, but she still listened to their arrangements carefully.

Anyway, whatever they say is okay, and the canal arranged by Liang Xinyue was also approved by them.

Next, several county leaders participated in the discussion on whether to invite the drilling team to carry out drilling.

It was almost a week later when Liang Xinyue got the news again.

During this week, the villagers used water from a pond on the other side of the mountain to irrigate the entire field.

But the workload is really huge. Several people are responsible for a section of the road and carry water in a relay manner.

Women and older people are responsible for watering the plants.

But it must be said that Captain Liu still has a strong appeal.

At noon, when Liang Xinyue was having lunch at her eldest brother's house, she mentioned the tricycle she had made, and Liang Jun said:

"Captain Qianjin's carpentry skills are really good, but this place doesn't really need carpenters. Carpenters like him are very popular in our southern part of the country."

Liang Xinyue nodded and said:

"I heard that his ancestors learned this craft in the south. But I want to ask him to build another one. Now my dad rides this one to take Dabao to the valley every day. I want to build another one for myself. Then I'll give him some money for the carpentry."

Liang Jun thought for a moment and said:

"Let me tell him, let me do the talking, I'll pay for it, if you pay, he might not want yours."

Liang Xinyue smiled and said:

"That's right. I was also thinking that he might not want me. So, just let him do it the way it was before. I've tried it and it's very comfortable to ride and very applicable."

Liang Xinyue took out fifty yuan and gave it to her brother:

"He also brought the wood, so we'll pay him for it. If those old wheels don't work, I'll look for them again. I think I can find some old wheels in the county town."

A few days later, it was time for Liang Xinyue to prepare to harvest the rice.

Because I had written a letter to Director Ye before, but I didn't expect Director Ye to call me yesterday and say that he would bring people to watch them harvest rice.

Fortunately, Liang Xinyue was prepared and called Brother Liu and his brothers, as well as Captain Liu, Liu Qianjin and their son.

Things like harvesting had to be done by the men, so she arranged for Sister Yang and others to be responsible for cooking.

In addition to the meat and fish bought outside, they also had to prepare for the valley loaches. On the eve of the harvest, Liang Xinyue called all the family members to hold a small meeting and everyone divided the work.

Qiu Yue'e, Aunt Li and Zhu Guixiang helped to look after the children, and during the next two days of harvest, the children had to be kept in the yard where they were studying.

Yaya and Dongdong were assigned to take care of the children who could run and jump, because Teacher Zou and Zhu Guixiang were both pregnant and had to do easier tasks.

Qiu Yue'e is responsible for looking after Xiao Jiajia and Huang Ying's little daughter. The two little ones are about the same age, so it's okay with Yaya and the others helping to look after them.

The two little ones were left in the care of Aunt Li. Everything was moved over there early in the morning. They played in the yard over there and had their meals there.

As for the rest of the people, Sister Yang and Fu Chunhua, along with Tian Mingfang and Huang Ying, were responsible for cooking.

Liang Xinyue had to take charge of all matters, receive people from the province, and arrange the threshing of grain.

This afternoon Liang Xinyue moved their thresher from Xinshui Village.

In addition, Political Commissar Xu also arranged a squad of soldiers to help, so there was sufficient labor force.

Tomorrow morning, Liang Xinyue has to go to the city to buy some vegetables. After everything is arranged, everyone goes to bed early and prepares for tomorrow's big event.

Before Liang Xinyue lay down, she thought carefully about her work arrangements and the arrangements for her children at home to see if there was anything she had missed.

Maybe I was too focused and I couldn’t fall asleep all of a sudden.

I couldn't sleep and kept thinking about Zhou Guoliang. It has been more than a week since he left, and there has been no news from him.

Being a military wife means enduring these things, and she could only sigh. Even if she slept very late, she still woke up before dawn. The two children were not awake yet, so Liang Xinyue came out and whispered to Aunt Li who also got up early, and then drove into the county town.

Fu Chunhua also went to the county town with Liang Xinyue. They agreed that she would get on the bus to the city this morning, and when she came back she would bring in a few people from Xinshui Village.

The two of them walked all the way into the county town, and it was just beginning to get light.

They quickly bought some meat, eggs, and some dried goods such as black fungus, and then hurried back because Captain Liu and his men had agreed to wait for them on the roadside.

When I came back, I saw that they brought their own sickles and baskets for harvesting. When they saw the trucks coming, they climbed into the truck beds one by one.

Liang Xinyue stretched her head and called out:

"Squat down or sit down."

When they drove back to the gate of the family compound, Sister Yang came out to greet her when she heard the voice. She handed her a bowl of steamed buns and then went in with Fu Chunhua and the vegetables they had bought.
