Chapter 65： Please call me a manual water dispenser

Chapter 65 Please call me a manual water dispenser

All the crops in the fields have withered. Even those that had been watered before were not much better.

The big river outside the village has completely dried up, and there is no small stream of water to be found.

The children went to the bottom of the river to dig for clams in the bright sun, and two of them fainted from the sun.

It’s hard to say, but the village is in a state of chaos again.

Jiayin only wore a small bellyband with knee-length shorts underneath. The back and calves are exposed.

But she was still hot, wishing she could stick out her tongue like a puppy to dissipate heat.

The family was very busy during this period, and no one paid much attention to her.

She secretly practiced walking. Although she fell a lot, she could barely walk for a while.

At ten months old, she walked. She was not too early for a baby, but it was definitely not too late.

At this time, she wanted to take a look at the well while her family was taking a nap.

But as soon as we got down the steps, the skin of the meat was almost cooked due to the sun.

She could only turn to the kitchen, crawl across the threshold on hands and feet, and finally touch the water tank, and then start pouring water from the space.

It took a full quarter of an hour for the big water tank at home to be filled.

Before she could rest, the old lady came looking for her.

“Oh, Fu Niu’er, why did you come here!”

Mrs. Li picked up her granddaughter and quickly scooped up water to wash her hands and feet.

The cold well water made Jiayin feel much better and she started to yawn.

Just as Mrs. Li was about to take her granddaughter back to the house, Old Man Zhao's screams rang out in the courtyard.

“It’s broken, and our well is dry too!”

Everyone in the Li family ran out one after another when they heard the noise. Sure enough, there was only a shallow layer of water at the bottom of the well.

It is impossible to throw a bucket in to fetch water.

Perhaps it will be done completely tomorrow.

Mrs. Li also wanted to go over and take a look, but suddenly her heart trembled and she turned back to look.

There was only half a tank left in the water tank last night. After using it all morning, it should be empty, but now it is almost full.

And the well in the courtyard has dried up, could it be...

She looked down at her sleeping granddaughter and subconsciously tightened her arms. She didn't know whether to be ecstatic or worried.

What kind of precious granddaughter did the Li family get? Simply omnipotent!

Good News When I woke up, it was already dusk.

After having eaten and drank enough, everyone in the Li family was about to go to sleep, but she was in great spirits.

Remembering that the well at home was dry, she planned to go and have a look. After all, she couldn't always fill the water tank at home out of thin air.

The best way to cover up is to store water in wells.

She got off the kang smoothly and reached the door again. The next moment, he was suddenly picked up.

Mrs. Li nodded her granddaughter’s forehead, “Where do you want to sneak away again?”

Jiayin giggled and pointed outside.

Old Mrs. Li sighed, kissed her chubby cheek, and then walked quietly to the yard.

Sure enough, Jiayin ran all the way to the well, and his little hand rested on the edge of the well and stopped moving.

The old lady didn’t know what her granddaughter was going to do, so she lay down at the mouth of the well to take a closer look.

Under the moonlight, a line of water flowed down the well wall along the granddaughter's little hand. There is already a lot of water at the bottom of the well...

She tried her best not to scream in surprise, and stepped forward to carefully hug her granddaughter.

Let her granddaughter lie in her arms, which is safer and less tiring.

Jiayin felt so comfortable. He hugged grandma’s thigh and continued to drain.

I don’t know how long it took, but Mrs. Li couldn’t hear the sound of water anymore. Looking down, I saw that my granddaughter was already asleep and drooling.

She was so distressed that she didn't even care to see what was going on in the well, so she hurriedly took her granddaughter back to the house.

Early in the morning of the second day, just after dawn, Li Laosan shouted in surprise in the courtyard.

“Oh, there is water in our well again!”

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru took advantage of the coolness of the morning and got up early to cook. After hearing this, he rushed over quickly. The bright well water was not much, only half the height of the previous day, but it made everyone smile.

Hungry is uncomfortable, but it is equally painful if there is no water on a hot day.

It’s better now, there is water at home again.

By chance, a villager came to Li's house to borrow a mule cart to enter the city. He was also happy to see water in Li's well. I didn’t even need to borrow a car anymore. I went home to get buckets of water and came here to get two buckets.

It’s hard for the Li family to refuse to give it to them. This is not gold or silver. What's more, we are all from the same village, how can we see everyone thirsty.

The news spread to ten and hundreds, and soon the whole village knew that there was water in the Li family's well.

Even the village chief came to visit, and people from nearby families even came to fetch water.

Seeing this, Li Laosi quickly filled up his water tank.

Just like that, they were fighting for it, and within half an hour, the well was dry again.

Everyone was a little embarrassed and thanked Mrs. Li one after another. Finally, they gathered together and became even more worried.

Mrs. Li held her little granddaughter in her arms and used a cattail leaf fan to shield her from the sun. Her heart was beating like a drum.

Some villagers suggested, "Village chief, should we hide in the mountains?"

The village chief pointed to the mountains and forests in the distance and sighed.

“It’s not easy in the mountains, there’s no place to hide, and the wild animals in the mountains may not be able to find water.”

Everyone sighed, "What should we do? The crops can't be saved, and people will die of thirst!"

Some women began to sob, and the men raised their heads and sighed.

The village chief was afraid that the Li family would be unlucky, so he kicked people out.

"Go home and cry! There is no one to blame for this natural disaster."

Everyone left with their heads and heads drooping, leaving the Li family sighing.

Tao Hongying and the others cooked and ate, while Jiayin went to the fields to earn money.

Old Mrs. Li could only hug her granddaughter, cover her with a cattail leaf fan and walk around the ground.

The Li family’s crops are watered the most, but the weather is hot and consumes a lot of money.

The crops are still with drooping leaves, and they are greener than other people's homes. But only a few, no more...

Still need to water!

Jiayin made up his mind to continue delivering water to the well in the afternoon.

But after dinner, the sun was too strong. No matter how hard she struggled, no one in her family allowed her to go out.

Having no choice but to wait until dusk, she took her grandma to the well.

Old Mrs. Li guessed for a long time before she understood what her granddaughter meant.

She felt very complicated. On the one hand, she was worried that the crops would die due to drought and there would be no harvest. On the other hand, she was worried about her granddaughter, who was so worried about the family when she was less than one year old.

After all, I don’t know where the water was found. What if it’s very far away? Will my granddaughter be exhausted if she is so young?

The result was hesitation, and the well was half full again.

She could only ask her sons to quickly hit the cart and pull water from the fields while it was dark.

The moon is shining brightly, but you can see the water clearly.

The family didn’t understand why there was water in the well again, but they couldn’t care less at this time.

An extra scoop of water given to the crops will last half a month longer. Maybe it will rain in half a month!

Even if the production is reduced due to long-term drought, half of the harvest will be enough to feed the whole family.

 One trip after another, Daqing was so tired at dawn, and the whole family was so sleepy that they could fall asleep at any time.

As for the good news, I am already lying in grandma’s arms and snoring.

She was really tired. She had been weighed down in the space for a whole night.

The villagers got up early and came to Li's house to try their luck. They were all happy when they saw water in the well.

Looking at the Li family's yard and the mule cart, I guessed that they were watering the fields again at night. I was really envious and admired them.

This work is too tiring and may even be useless.

The Li family is so willing to endure hardships just for a little hope.

But everyone has given up long ago, and they are really ashamed of themselves...
