Chapter 206 Fighting for Water
Fight for water
"Huizi, you are thinking too much!" Li Chengji put his arms around Yuan Hui's neck and sent him out of the hospital.
"Inheritance, now the water in the small river in the county town cannot be pumped out. We are all going to fetch water from the small river 500 meters away from the county town. Would you like to go?"
"Go, definitely go, and I'll call my third child, don't worry, go back quickly, don't waver outside."
After seeing Yuan Hui away, Li Chengji closed the courtyard door, turned around and was about to go to his little sister to tell her that Yuan Hui smelled meat in his house.
But he saw the little sister standing not far behind him, smiling at her.
"Little sister, what are you laughing at?"
"It's nothing, I just think Yuan Hui is very funny, his nose is about to catch up with the police dog."
"In addition to studying, that kid is interested in eating meat and has a very sharp nose. In the future, if we have some delicious food at our house, we can secretly bring him some. He won't go out and talk nonsense."
"Just trust him?"
"Believe!"
Li Xiaoyu still chooses to believe in the second brother. It is rare to see him believe in a person so much, and he has to support him no matter what.
"Little sister, my little brother and I made an appointment with Yuan Hui and the others to go to the river outside the county to fetch water, do you want to go?"
When Li Xiaoyu heard that she was going to fetch water, she also wanted to see the situation outside. After coming to the county seat, she didn't pay much attention to the drought.
"Go, I'll also go and see what's going on outside."
"Then hurry up, it will be dark when you come back late. There may be a lot of people going this time."
There is only one bucket at home, and Li Chengji and Li Chengyi went together just to change the pick. Li Xiaoyu put a crock in the back basket. It is not easy to go for a trip. It is best to bring more water back.
"Inheritance, hurry up!" Yuan Hui's shout came from outside the hospital, and the three brothers and sisters Li Chengji hurried out.
"Hey, there are a lot of people! Are you going to go?" Li Xiaoyu saw that most of the children outside were from various households, and about 80% of them came from an alley.
"Most of the people came and went, and those people in the village didn't dare to chase us!"
"What's going on?" Li Chengji didn't expect to pick up some water, and there would still be a case of kicking people.
"It's nothing, it's just that the children in the village are not allowed to fetch water in our county." Yuan Hui said angrily.
"Understood, we will act accordingly!"
A group of 10-year-old boys and girls, nearly 20 people, each carried the tools for holding water at home or carried or carried them to the outside of the county to fetch water.
When he was about to reach the river, the people in front stopped. Li Xiaoyu was still surprised that he could see the river, why didn't he leave?
"There must be someone blocking the road ahead. Let's go and see it. It's not the river in the village. Why don't you let us fetch water?" Yuan Hui pulled Li Chengji and was about to leave.
"Little brother, you stay with the little sister. If there is a real fight, you have to protect the little sister. I will go to the front to see the situation and then talk about it." After Li Chengji gave the order, he followed Yuan Hui to the front to see what was going on. Happening.
Li Xiaoyu also wanted to watch the fun. If there was a real fight, it would be a bunch of half-sized boys with no seriousness in their hands, and problems could easily occur.
"Third brother, let's go to the front too!"
"Second brother said no, you can't go!"
"Don't worry, let's take a look from a distance, and it will be too late to run after a fight." Li Xiaoyu didn't want to miss this opportunity, and Li Chengyi, who also wanted to watch the fun, was moved by a few words.
The brothers and sisters brought their own water-filling tools and went forward.
A group of village children were blocking the road, the boys were holding sticks in their hands, and the girls were chatting non-stop.
"This is the water from our countryside. You city people are not allowed to fetch it. You ate our food and still want to **** the water. You are robbers!" A girl's sharp voice came out.
When Li Xiaoyu heard this, it was a bit interesting. This person wanted to stir up conflicts between urban and rural areas!
"It's no use arguing with you. Go and get your village chief. This river belongs to the state. When did it become your village's? It's because you want the local owner to fail!"
Yuan Hui's words were even sharper, scaring the children so much that they didn't dare to say a word. Now who dares to be the owner?
One of the little boys ran towards the village, both of them stared at each other and didn't want to let the other go, but no one dared to say a word again, for fear of being slapped with another hat by these city people.
Just as the two sides were staring at each other, the little boy who returned to the village ran back with a man in his fifties.
"Don't stare, listen to me, I'm the mayor of Hongxing Village, you can come to fetch water from your county, but you can't fetch too much. Come once a day, and our village is also short of water. You pick, only the crops matter.
Don't argue, just get the water and leave as soon as possible, don't stay here, there will be these children watching here. We are all poor people, none of us are landlords, don't talk nonsense, it will kill people! "
"Village Chief, I'm sorry, I also said something wrong in a hurry, we just want to get some water, nothing else!" Yuan Hui also realized that what he said was heavy, but he couldn't cause trouble to others.
"You've all fetched water, hurry up, and come here every day at this time, there will be someone here to guard." The village chief turned around and hurried to the village, a group of worry-free people, even children. in this way.
When Xiaodouzi came back to find him, he recounted the situation to him. Go back and talk about the Daniel family well, and the children brought here should be taught well. Can those words be said nonsense? Maybe even a village would have to be implicated by her.
The little girl who just spoke did not know, because her words would implicate her mother, so that no one dared to approach her in the village.
A group of people fetched water by the river. The water level receded by about seven or eight meters. The silt on the riverside had already been dried and cracked by the sun.
There are several places where water can be drawn in the distance, and they are all guarded. The river water cannot be seen to the end, and the water storage capacity is relatively abundant.
Get the water, and the group went back together. On the way, Yuan Hui began to talk about the last time they came to get water. The last time I came here, there was no one guarding me, and the water was taken casually.
Some even brought their clothes to wash, and washed them at the place where the water was drawn. They were seen by the villagers and said that the polluted water source for washing clothes made the villagers unable to eat. They started quarreling at the time. This is definitely the same as last time. related.
It can only be said that in other people's territory, you have to follow other people's rules, even if you are a city person.
The red acorns on the roadside began to be harvested, and the adults and children in the fields were all working. There were a few boys who were carrying water together. When they saw the piles of red glutinous rice, some of them had green eyes. This is food!
Someone started to move, stopped by the side of the road and pretended to rest, but his eyes were fixed on the situation on the ground.
