During the lean years, I relied on space to pamper my husband and raise my children.
Chapter 12 There is water in the ancient well
Whether inside or outside the village, everything is desolate.
I walked to the ancient well behind the village and looked down. There was a thick layer of soil at the bottom of the well, and the soil was moist.
This……
Shen Qianning remembered that the wells were completely dry before. When there was water in the wells, every household in the village was here to guard it. Of course, the bottom of the wells was also clean. But then the wells ran out of water, and the wind blew the sediment into the wells, but no more. No one has cleaned up.
Now, the bottom of the well has become wet again. Is there water in the well again?It would be great if so.
Going down to the well smoothly, Shen Qianning dug into the moist soil with a hoe.
But she found that the soil was easy to dig. Finally, she cleaned up all the soil accumulated in the well.
A very thin mountain spring flows out from the wall of the well. The water flow is very small, but at this speed, it should be enough to scoop a bucket of water in one night.
She really didn't want to drink the water in the col. The thought of wild boar excrement and urine everywhere made her feel uncomfortable.
The water flow was too small, so Shen Qianning decided to put some water into the well in advance.
When Xiao Feiye comes back, he can justifiably fetch the water back.
But, why did the well suddenly have water?
Shen Qianning was puzzled.
Is it possible that her time travel has gradually changed the plot in the book?
After thinking for a while, Shen Qianning didn't understand, so she simply started working. There was a lot of water in her space, so she poured several large buckets of water into the well, and then sat by the well.
The remaining families in the village should have gone out to find water before dawn.
So she wasn't in a hurry.
I paid special attention to the water in the well and found that it has been rising, indicating that the spring water has been flowing.
Finally, I no longer need to drink the water from the mountain col.
It was almost dark when Xiao Feiye came back. He pushed a cart to transport the water back home. When he asked the children, he found out that Shen Qianning had gone to the ancient well behind the village.
Worried that something might happen to Shen Qianning, Xiao Fei ran directly towards the ancient well as soon as he put down Ye Shui.
After seeing Shen Qianning sitting safely by the well, the stone hanging in his heart was completely put down.
Shen Qianning was bored sitting by the well, and she didn't dare to go home. She was afraid that she would be unlucky and the villagers would find water in the well as soon as she returned home.
You have to be careful!
She saw the worry in Xiao Feiye's eyes, and her heart warmed. She quickly stood up and waved to Xiao Feiye: "Husband, come quickly, there is water in the ancient well."
Xiao Feiye felt incredible after hearing this.
After all, this ancient well has been out of water for a long time.
At first, people in the village often came to see it, but later everyone was disappointed with the well.
Why is there suddenly water again?
Xiao Feiye went to the edge of the well and looked down. He was pleasantly surprised by the clear water.
Shen Qianning was very close to Xiao Feiye, and she could still smell Xiao Feiye's scent on the tip of her nose. A trace of panic flashed in her heart, and she quickly moved to the side.
"I just wanted to come over and take a look, but I found that the soil at the bottom of the well was wet, so I jumped down to clean it up. Then I kept watch all afternoon, and there was so much water."
Xiao Feiye was very happy and said quickly: "I'll go home and get a bucket. This is God's blessing on us!"
When people leave the village, water will be available in the ancient well. This is not a blessing from God.
Soon Xiao Feiye came with a bucket. Because of the severe drought, every household had several water tanks to store water.
Boss Xiao and his family were leaving in a hurry, and there were three large water tanks.
Pour the water brought back from the col into one of the water tanks, and then pour the water brought back into the other water tank.
After running back and forth three times and carrying three loads of water, the well was completely empty.
Xiao Feiye found a stone slab to cover the well and took Shen Qianning back home.
Xiao Feiye was particularly happy that the well had water again, and asked Shen Qianning to prepare some meat for dinner.
The aroma of wild boar wafts through the yard.
Just when Shen Qianning was about to bring the cooked rice into the main room, there was a knock on the door outside.
This courtyard is an open space of three rooms. The side room at the east end of the wall is the kitchen room, and the toilet is at the back of the house.
Shen Qianning put down the bowl and walked to the kitchen door. Xiao Feiye had already walked behind the courtyard door and asked: "Who!"
"I'm Xiao Erquan." A middle-aged man's voice sounded outside the door.
Xiao Feiye still didn't open the door. He had a bad relationship with Xiao Erquan. Who knew if Xiao Erquan outside the door had evil intentions.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Feiye continued to ask through the door.
Outside.
Xiao Erquan and four other young adults looked at each other.
They did not flee the famine together because there were old people and children at home, and there was not much food left. They were worried that they would not survive if they fled the famine, so they stayed with a glimmer of hope.
They also exchanged land for food.
But the more I thought about it at home in the afternoon, the more unfair I felt. Why was Xiao Feiye so lucky to get so much food?
Now that everyone in the village has almost left, a few people got together and decided to come to snatch Xiao Feiye.
If Xiao Feiye and his family were sensible, they would be spared their lives; if not, they would be killed and sold to the next village.
So a group of five people came.
Xiao Erquan said politely through the door: "Fei Ye said that we grew up together. When you were a child, the village kids bullied you, and I helped you! Now I have no water at home, and I couldn't find it when I looked for water during the day. I have some water at home." I have a kid, please see if you can give me some water!"
Xiao Feiye's brows suddenly wrinkled.
Through the crack in the door, I saw Xiao Erquan standing alone outside the door.
Shen Qianning walked up to Xiao Feiye at this time.
He also looked out through the crack in the door.
The moonlight was faint, and Shen Qianning suddenly saw the shadow next to Xiao Erquan move.
There's more than one person outside!
Shen Qianning immediately grabbed Xiao Feiye's arm.
Put your left index finger to your mouth and say "shhh".
He leaned close to Xiao Feiye's ear and whispered: "He's not the only one outside!"
Xiao Feiye, who had no intention of opening the door to Xiao Erquan, suddenly turned cold when he heard Shen Qianning's words.
He nodded slightly towards Shen Qianning and gave him a comforting look.
He asked: "Are you alone outside?"
Xiao Erquan's heart tightened and he almost revealed his secret.
Xiao Dahu, who was still hiding aside and closest to Xiao Erquan, gave him a warning look.
Xiao Erquan quickly said: "It's just me, Feiye, please help my family! I will definitely remember your kindness in the future!"
Xiao Feiye's face became even colder.
Xiao Erquan's lies undoubtedly indicate that he has other motives.
Their family also had a lot of food matters, and all the five families left behind knew about it.
Before the drought, Xiao Feiye often helped people in the village because he was good at hunting, and he had a good relationship with everyone.
After the severe drought, because Xiao Feiye sent grain to the villagers, but the villagers came to borrow the grain but did not borrow it, the villagers gradually blamed Xiao Feiye, insulted him behind his back, and of course they were unwilling to continue to interact with Xiao Feiye.
