I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

After sending Grandma Yuan away, Grandma Liu simply closed the door and sat down on a bench in the yard.

"Oh! It's so annoying! There are already several families coming to borrow grain today. If you had known earlier, you should have told the village chief two days later. Otherwise, these people wouldn't have thought that we had already bought it." As soon as she sat down, Grandma Liu complained to Grandpa Liu who was watching the fun next to her.

"This is indeed my fault. I didn't think so much about it at the beginning. I just thought that if they bought it earlier, they would spend less money!" Grandpa Liu said apologetically to Grandma Liu.

"Okay, grandma, don't be angry. Come and drink some water to calm down." At this time, Liu Xiaoxiao brought out a bowl of water with spiritual spring water from the house and handed it to Grandma Liu.

Recently, she would secretly add some spring water to the water tank at home from time to time. Although it didn't have much effect, it could still help to relieve some of the fatigue and irritability caused by the hot weather after drinking it.

Grandma Liu took the water and took a sip, then smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao is really sensible. The water here tastes sweeter to me."

She smiled mischievously, then sat on the stool next to Grandma Liu, took her hand and said, "Grandma, you're joking. I just fetched this water from the water tank at home. It's not as exaggerated as you say."

"But grandma was so fierce when she was scolding Grandma Yuan just now, she even made Grandma Yuan run away!"

She looked at Grandma Liu with admiration and continued, "You don't know, I almost burst out laughing just listening to that. I had to pretend to cough to cover it up."

"I was wondering why you suddenly started coughing! I was wondering if you caught a cold sleeping alone!" Grandma Liu expressed her concerns.

"No, grandma, you have just rejected several families. When other people see them come into our house but don't borrow anything, they probably won't come to borrow again!" she guessed.

"Well, that should be it! Otherwise, I don't want to bother with this old bone anymore."

Later, what they predicted turned out to be true. Ever since Grandma Yuan left, no one came to borrow food from them anymore, and they were happy and at ease.

But the peaceful days did not last long.

That day, her uncle came back from the fields and said: It hasn't rained for more than a month, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter, causing the crops in the fields to be seriously short of water. They now have to carry water to irrigate the fields.

Finally, Grandpa said, "Let's go to the river beside the village to pick it up."

Then the whole family went out to fetch water, water the fields, even the grandparents went out to water the fields. Apart from Liu Wenxuan who was in school, only eight-year-old San Ya and Daya were at home cooking.

Originally, grandma wanted to ask Liu Xiaoxiao to stay at home, but when she thought about how she cooked at home the last few times, she immediately gave up this plan.

"Grandma, everyone in our village goes to that river to fetch water to irrigate the fields. Is the water enough?" Liu Xiaoxiao had just finished watering a bucket of water and started chatting with Grandma Liu next to her while changing buckets.

Grandma Liu was old after all, so when she heard Liu Xiaoxiao talking to her, she took the opportunity to stand up, wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "I don't know if the water level on our side of the river has decreased, but the water level downstream is definitely decreasing."

Seeing her grandmother's exhausted face, Liu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but say, "Grandma, go and have a rest over there! I'll water this bucket."

As he said that, he walked over and took the bucket from her hand. After she quickly poured two buckets of water, he said he would go back to get some water for everyone, and then ran away.
