Chapter 221 Preparing for a Rainy Day

Chapter 221 Preparing for a rainy day

Now it seems that the abundance of rain is a bit too much, maybe there will be drought in the second half of the year.

In fact, from the client's memory, the climate has been unstable in the past few years. Basically, when rain is needed, the sky is dry and there is no rain, and when rain is not needed, it will continue to fall for ten and a half months.

In this hour and space, people are still only relying on the sky for food, and the harvest depends entirely on the face of God.

Thinking of this, Qingu felt that perhaps a water reservoir should be dug for a rainy day.

In fact, the rain is not too heavy, and it is completely possible to work outside.

Qingu thought for a while, then said to the uncles: "There is too much rain now, and I am worried that there will be drought in the second half of the year. The rain is not too heavy, and there is no other work for the time being (we can't do the work in the rainy field) , why not just dig a reservoir next to our yard, which can just collect the rainwater that flows down the mountain.”

In fact, Qingu had a careful understanding of the surrounding geographical environment before, whether it was collecting herbs or doing farm work for a few days.

There is a slope next to the yard, not to mention the barren land, and there are thick rocks underneath, so digging a reservoir is the most suitable.

Moreover, they live in the middle of the mountain now, and the water source is not enough. Even if there is no drought, it is always beneficial to have a reservoir.

The uncle didn't even think about it, and immediately made a decision: "Then listen to niece Yuxiu and dig the reservoir. Start construction today."

So people saw that the members of the Zhong family seemed to have taken medicine, frantically harvested the wheat and planted new crops, and now they started digging a reservoir?

Are you sick?

I heard that the daughter of the third daughter of the Zhong family was divorced by her husband's family (whether it was divorced or not, anyway, in people's eyes, she was driven out by her husband's family), did she become insane?

Some people even went to Zhong's house to watch the fun... It's raining, why dig a reservoir? Did you overeat?

In fact, Qingu originally wanted to rely on her experiences and experiences in several periods of life, and even with her original life, she would definitely be regarded as a winner in life.

He must have more experience than these people, and he also wants to lead the whole village to prepare for the possible coming famine.

But looking at the appearance of these people and the sarcasm in their words, they simply laughed at the people of the Zhong family as if they were fools.

That's all, such a person doesn't bother to say a word to them.

But Uncle Zhong has more affection for the villagers and neighbors here than Qingu, and he feels that his niece's idea is very reasonable, besides... Isn't it just raining now, when did the farmers not get wet when harvesting and plowing?

Rather than looking at the sky and sighing at home, it is more meaningful to dig a reservoir.

So he patiently analyzed the pros and cons with the villagers...

Except that there are still some lazy people who would rather chew their tongues behind their backs, or blow the shells with dry smoke, and are too lazy to swing a hoe.

There are still several families who dug the reservoir together with the Zhong family, including those who harvested wheat overnight with the Zhong family before.

…………

Half a month later, I heard that Hou Jiagui, the eldest son of the Hou family, was paralyzed on the bed and couldn't get up for some reason.

Tsk tsk, this is only in his thirties, he is in his prime, why did he fall down?

People looked regretful and regretful, saying that the daughter-in-law of the third child is really pitiful, and that a man who got off the bed really suffers and stays a widow.

But there was another set of arguments in his heart: Hou Laosan might have visited too many brothels, and was squeezed dry by those women, so he collapsed on the bed. As for the third daughter-in-law, although she looks pitiful now, no one beats her, maybe she is still having fun secretly. And in the past, people saw Hou Lao San often beat his wife, and people helped her talk at first, but she didn't remember it well, so she told Hou Lao San when she went back, and finally got Hou Lao San's revenge... So, people didn't bother to talk about it anymore. Just talk to her, secretly saying she deserved it.

The old man of the Hou family heard that the second son of the Zhong family who was beaten by them before can now walk on the ground. You must know that the legs of the second son of the Zhong family were broken by them at that time, and even the stubble of the bones were exposed. Later, all the doctors refused to come , They all said they couldn't survive. It turned out to be fine, I heard that yesterday someone saw the two brothers of the Zhong family digging a reservoir.

After inquiring, people said that Zhong Yuxiu, who was divorced by her husband's family, cured her...

In the past, when the Zhong family was still very prosperous, I heard that the old master of the Zhong family paid great attention to the education and training of their children and grandchildren. Just the private school teacher invited three or four to come to his home to teach the children and grandchildren. There can be two exams and a fame or something.

It's just that the Zhong family fell into decline later on. At that time, it seemed that Zhong Yuxiu was still very young... But it can't be ruled out that she really learned the real thing.

But, if Zhong Yuxiu really has such abilities, why hasn't she shown her beauty for so many years? Marrying into her husband's house and being eaten to death?

Of course, it is also possible, as she said, that she became self-taught after marrying into her husband's family.

But a woman is like an ox and a horse in her husband's house, how can you have time to fiddle with medical skills?

Moreover, as a woman, if she goes out to show her face, people will think that her in-laws have no rules, and they will think that this woman has no "women".

Alas, no matter what, since she can cure the illnesses of the two brothers of the Zhong family, she should be called to show the third brother Hou first.

As for the previous grievances...the Zhong family can't do anything, after all, the Hou family is the only one in the village now.

Boss Hou is still the head of the village, what can the Zhong family do?

Qingu saw Hou Jiaming, the second son of the Hou family, with his hands behind his back and his head held high, biting a cigarette in his mouth, his eyes were narrowed by the smoke, and he shouted to her in a drawn-out voice: "Hey, the Zhong family's son, Come with me to see a doctor for my brother..."

Killing intent flashed across Qingu's eyes, and he replied, "Are you sure you want to invite me?"

Hou Jiaming looked very arrogant, and said impatiently: "Hurry up, if my brother's illness is delayed, you and the Zhong family will look good."

Make the Zhong family look good? Ah……

Keeping people like you is the biggest hidden danger in this village. Almost all the families in the village have not been bullied by the brothers of the Hou family.

Later, relying on their large numbers and power, they united with a few gangsters in the village to forcibly remove the original old village chief and make Hou Jia, the boss, the village chief.

The last time Zhong Linhua got into an argument because of the Hou family's seizure of land, he was beaten up by the Hou family brothers, and the Zhong family had nowhere to fight. If Qingu hadn't returned in time, he would have basically died.

As a result, the Hou family brothers showed off their power even more in the village, lawless.

Therefore, in Qingu's plan, she will kill the Hou family sooner or later.

And through the small Z to check the attribute bubbles above their heads, the merit value has reached more than -20...

For an ordinary person who deals with the land all day long, it is not easy to do things with negative merit points of dozens.

It's just that Qingu has been busy during this time, racing against time, and doesn't care about this at all.

Now that the other party took the initiative to send them "to the door", I happened to deal with them all, so as not to keep bouncing around, which was really annoying.

Isn't my own skills used to do these things?

Arriving at Hou's house, Qingu found that the whole family was there.

Heart Road: Just right.
