Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

Village chief Ma was sitting at home worrying about the water level in the wells, which were getting lower and lower. Hundreds of people in the village were relying on these wells for water, and there was no water source in the mountains! What should he do in the future?

Just when I was worrying about it, I heard from the Xia family that water was coming out of the well near the instant noodle factory, and the water inside was tending to seep into the ground.

So he asked Village Chief Ma to quickly gather the villagers and bring the water-drawing tools.

Go to the well near the factory to fetch water.

"Okay, okay, I'll notify the people in the village right away. Sorry to bother you, Brother Xia!"

Village chief Ma was also extremely excited. He was afraid that if he delayed any longer, the well that had finally produced water would disappear again.

So he gathered his family members together to notify every household in the village.

Even the two relatives-in-law who were temporarily staying at Village Chief Ma's house went along to help with the notification.

They knew that they had no share in the water, but Village Chief Ma had been sharing some of their own water with their in-laws who were staying there temporarily.

So when they learned that water had come out of the well, they were no less excited than the villagers.

The other members of the Xia family also learned about the news of water coming out of the well at the first time.

So everyone got up early and gathered around the well, curious to see why so much water suddenly came out of the well.

Let the water come out, there is actually a tendency for it to seep back.

"Shouldn't we draw some water up quickly? Although this well is temporarily used by the villagers, there is not much water in the well in our yard! It wouldn't be too much if we draw some up first?" Tao Siyuan said to Xia Shengsheng.

After hearing this, the others also looked at Xia Shengsheng.

Xia Shengsheng actually didn't like the water in this well very much. Several tons of water was not much when put into the well, and it was mixed with mud from the bottom of the well, so it probably wouldn't taste very good.

"No need. Aren't those big water tanks in our house full? Let's leave them to the villagers! If there are hundreds of people sharing this much water, not a single family can get much. Let's not fight with them for now!

Maybe this well will produce water in the future!

If there is no water in the future, I will find a way to relieve it. Anyway, I won’t let you get thirsty!"

After hearing what Xia Shengsheng said, Tao Siyuan stopped talking. After all, the well belonged to Xia Shengsheng. No matter what decision she made, they just had to listen from the side and occasionally express a small opinion, but the final decision would definitely be made by Xia Shengsheng herself.

The others had no objections at all. They always thought that the decisions made by Xia Shengsheng were correct.

When Village Chief Ma gathered every household in the village and came to Xia Shengsheng's factory.

In fact, the sky has just brightened.

Although it is spring now, the nights are long and the days are short in the north, so the sun rises very late.

"Xiao Xia! I called everyone here. Can you see if we can arrange for everyone to fetch water now?"

Now, for almost any decision, Village Chief Ma would ask Xia Shengsheng for his opinion.

Especially in terms of water use, Xia Shengsheng contributed two wells in his home to the villagers. How should the water be distributed? Whether to distribute it must be decided by Xia Shengsheng!

"Okay, village chief, you can make the arrangements! This water looks like there are about two tons. See how much each household can get and have everyone pump the water back to avoid it seeping into the ground. That would be a waste!"

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away. Boss, second brother, organize some people to watch over everyone! Don't panic, don't make a mess, let others get water first, and our family will be the last in line!"

Excluding those who are temporarily staying in Kaoshan Village, the total number of residents in Kaoshan Village is more than 500.

Village chief Ma reasonably allocates the amount of water each household can draw according to the population size and age!

While drawing water, everyone was thanking Xia Shengsheng. After all, this well belonged to Xia Shengsheng's family!

They still understand the principle of not forgetting the well digger when drinking water.

Xia Shengsheng didn't stay for long. Anyway, the village chief was organizing the group behind her, so there was no point for her to stay there.

So he said hello to the village chief and returned to his own yard with his children.

I didn’t sleep all night and I’m really a little sleepy.

But it's time to have breakfast.

The world is huge, and eating is the biggest thing!

It is better to have breakfast before going to sleep.

"Mom, was your prayer for water so effective last night?

How did you do it? Can you teach us?

This way you won't have to worry about praying for water anymore, you can just leave it to us!"

After returning to the yard, Shanshan tilted her head and looked at Xia Shengsheng, who looked a little tired. She felt a little distressed, so she made a suggestion.

The other children also looked at Xia Shengsheng with eager eyes, their eyes full of anticipation.

Xia Shengsheng rubbed Shanshan's head and said, "Praying for water is just a comfort in my heart. Even if mother didn't go to pray for water yesterday, the well would still produce water when it's time. It all depends on God's will.

Therefore, don't think that there is any secret technique that can bring water at will. It's just a coincidence.

Go and see what are we having for breakfast this morning? After breakfast, you should go to class and study. No matter what, you can’t miss any of your classes. "

After hearing what Xia Shengsheng said, several children also felt that it made sense.

If they could really pray for water at will, then it would be better for them to just pray for rain.

This part of the province has been experiencing drought for so long, leaving so many people homeless and some even losing their lives.

After figuring it out, several people ran to the kitchen and followed Jin Ling and her daughter, Master Li and Mr. Yang to do what they could.

Tao Siyuan was walking at the end, and he couldn't believe it.

coincidence?

Are there really such coincidences in the world?

Not only can no one disturb Aunt Xia when she is praying for water, but no one is even allowed to watch. Is there no secret about it?

But even if there is a secret, he will help Aunt Xia keep it secret.

After all, he had long regarded Xia Shengsheng as his closest family member.

"Sister Xia, are you all back? I just woke up and saw that there was no one in the yard. I thought you were going somewhere.

There's water coming out of the well in that courtyard? That's really good news!"

As soon as Xia Shengsheng walked into the inner courtyard, he saw Tao Wuji walking towards him.

I thought Tao Wuji would still call her Jingwan, but I didn't expect that he called her by the right name this time.

To make sure I heard it right, I asked again!

"That's a good thing! But, Master Tao, what did you call me just now?"

Tao Wuji scratched his head and looked at Xia Shengsheng and Tao Siyuan who were staring at him, still a little confused.

"Sister Xia? Isn't that what I always call you?

What’s the matter? We are so close now, there’s no need to be so polite!

And you, didn't I tell you before that you can just call me Brother Tao? Don't always call me Master Tao, Master Tao. It makes us feel alienated.

If you don't want to call me Brother Tao, you can call me Old Tao! Yuan'er, don't you think so? "
