Eating big melon is so refreshing

Chapter 24 All your wishes come true

Thinking about the "tap water" in her mind, Xiao Chunya woke up after only half an hour of sleep. Zhao Erlang sent her and her siblings to her third grandfather's house and saw that only one bamboo tube was left on the ground, and the others had been set up.

Zhao Nan doesn't need to take a nap now that he's old, so he has to help fix the rack and tie the bamboo tubes with ropes, but he still knows how to do these jobs.

"Uncle Liu, I want to go take a look over there." Xiao Qiulin replaced her sister because her sister was too fat and it was tiring to carry her up and down.

"Okay." Liu Fengchun's lightness skill is a hundred times stronger than the two kids. He is worthy of being an escort of a big escort agency at the age of 18. I don't know how good his fighting ability is, but few people can catch up with his running speed!

Liu Fengchun: Thank you for your praise.

Xiao Chunya checked several key parts, and then asked her third grandfather to move the water tank to the corner and adjust the position of the bamboo tube.

"Is that all?" Zhao Erlang looked at the spliced ​​bamboo tubes extending from the fence to the tree, fixed to the tree branches with ropes, and then stretched outwards and fixed with ropes on a protruding tree halfway up the mountain. After a turn, one end of the bamboo reached a spring on the mountain wall.

"It's about right. It depends on whether the water can flow here smoothly." Xiao Chunya said, "The range of the vacant space is a bit long, so we need to make a support frame. I'll think about how to get the materials."

If it were in the previous life, I could just go to Moduo and buy it. But in this time and space, I have to get all the materials myself, which is not convenient at all.

It was probably only three minutes, but Zhao Nan felt it was several years long. He stared at the bamboo tube with his eyes wide open, almost cross-eyed.

Water slowly seeped in from the bamboo tube, drop by drop, and then slowly turned into a stream as thick as a thumb and flowed into the water tank.

"There's water, there's water!" Zhao Nan's face flushed red, and he excitedly shouted like a child, "Old woman, come out and see, there's running water!"

Zhao Liu walked out quickly and saw the water flowing from the bamboo tube into the water tank. She smiled and said, "Xiaochun is really amazing."

"The principle is quite simple, but it is a bit troublesome to operate." Xiao Chunya said, "This water volume should be adjusted. Once it is stable, it should be twice as much."

"That's enough, that's enough." Zhao Nan was very content. His family had few people, so they didn't need to go to the public well to fetch water. Two tanks of water a day were more than enough.

Zhao Erlang's eyes sparkled as he said, "Xiaochun, can you get running water for the old house?"

"The mountain wall opposite my grandfather's house is farther away than here, and we need to branch out and build a scaffold. The most important thing is that the materials are hard to find." Xiao Chunya said, "It can't be done in a short time. It takes time."

When my father wanted to give my grandfather two taels of silver to buy a place in the military service, he was scolded as a prodigal son. If he wanted to spend thirty taels of silver to dig a well, my grandfather would probably grab a stick and beat my father.

Although there are many people in my grandfather's family and it is not difficult to queue up to fetch water, how can it compare to the convenience of tap water?

Mr. Chen, the neighbor across the street, heard Zhao Nan's loud voice and walked over curiously. When he entered the yard and took a look, he was a little stunned.

"Oh my goodness, where did this water come from? Is this a magical trick?"

"Hey, isn't our Xiaochun a little fairy?"

Listening to them praising her made her feel embarrassed, so Xiao Chunya found an excuse to hide in the kitchen. Third grandmother made cold noodles today, so she went to have a bowl first.

Zhao Erlang didn't know how he got back to the old house. At this time, the sun was not too strong yet and had not yet reached the wheat fields. Everyone was at home enjoying the cool air. At this time, all the brothers gathered in the old house.

"Second brother, why are you back so soon?"

Zhao Bei meant for him to put aside other things in the afternoon and concentrate on helping the two children. After all, the two children were obsessed with getting tap water.

"Dad, there's water."

"What? There's water? Tap water?" Zhao Bei stood up. He couldn't sit still anymore. Out of curiosity, he wanted to go to his third brother's house to check the tap water.

With a splash, Zhao Erlang's brothers all followed him out. They had never seen such magical tap water, so who cared whether the sun was strong or not?

There is no shortage of people who like to spread gossip in Zhaojia Village, but this time, the gossipers were all very excited and rushed to Zhao Nan's house in a swarm.

The grown men looked at the tap water as if they were looking at a naked prostitute. Their obscene expressions were hard to describe.

The speed of the water has stabilized, just as Xiao Chunya estimated, but at this time the brother and sister had already run away, and they did not forget to pack the jelly before running.

What is the point of working so hard?

Of course it’s eating, filial piety? Haha, that’s just a side effect!

Unfortunately, what Zhao Nan said was that the two children were extremely filial and smart, and they succeeded in making the tap water that others could not even imagine.

Zhao Bei felt that his third brother was exaggerating a bit, so he corrected him, "Third brother, the main labor force is the nephews of the Liu family, and those two kids can only talk."

The Liu brothers felt that this was not right. Liu Fengchun said, "Uncle, anyone else could do this job, but only two children could come up with this idea."

"Yes, if our brains were so flexible, my uncle's family wouldn't have to fetch water all these years." Liu Fengliang was still excited, saying, "Who would have thought that with just a few bamboo poles, a few pieces of wood, and a few ropes, we could have running water at home."

The house next door to Zhao Nan is Uncle Ku's house. Zhao Nan's wife and Uncle Ku's wife are both from Liujia Village and are cousins.

Zhao Nan was discussing with Uncle Ku about opening a small door in the adjacent wall of the front yard of the two houses, so that it would be convenient to fetch water without having to go around in a circle.

"Hey, why is the sky cloudy?"

"Isn't it going to rain?"

"Hurry up and get to the wheat field. Don't let it really rain."

"Oh my God, please don't let it rain."

The men left very quickly because many people had not yet harvested their wheat and could not afford to waste any time.

Zhao Nan also went out with the wheat chopsticks, and the Liu brothers also went to help, pulling the carrying pole and rope. The work here was already done, so they couldn't just stay and stare at each other, right?

During the summer harvest, the sun is so strong that it makes people uncomfortable, but when the sky turns cloudy, it makes people even more nervous.

"Oh no! The epidemic in the county will break out in two days. It will take at least half a month for the new county magistrate to control the situation."

Xiao Chunya was suddenly shocked. "How do we notify grandpa and grandma to leave Huangyang County? My uncle is one of the main spreaders of the epidemic. If he comes into contact with grandpa and grandma, they will have to be quarantined for more than half a month. It's hard to say what will happen if they are locked up inside."

Jiang, who was eating jelly skin, stopped holding the chopsticks when she heard her daughter's voice. In her impression, this uncle was used to asking for extra money, and he would be a different person when you went to him for help in difficulties. There was no better relative than him.
