Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

"A fight? Why?" Shen Yuan wondered.

"Struggle for water, you'll know when you go and have a look." Shen Yongping said and ran under the big locust tree first, "Hurry up, no one can stop them, and if you beat them down, the water truck will overturn."

Shen Yuan hurriedly went down to the big locust tree, the shadow was responsible for Shen Yuan's safety, Ji Xun confessed that he would not interfere in his life, and only ensured Shen Yuan's safety, so naturally he followed Shen Yuan at this moment.

When they came to the Dasha tree, a water truck was overturned, and more than a dozen women got into a ball, kicking and kicking each other by pulling each other's hair, cursing and swearing.

"Stop." Shen Yuan yelled angrily when she arrived, and everyone stopped yelling when they heard her voice. After a stalemate for a while, they let go one after another, and helped them get up one by one.

"What's going on?" Shen Yu'an's face darkened. It's a daily routine for women in the countryside to fight. A gang in the west of the village and a gang in the east of the village fight for water in summer and firewood in winter. They form gangs at every turn. shelf.

She looked at them one by one, and saw that there were indeed two groups, women from the east of the village and the women from the west of the village, fifteen or sixty-seven, now separated on both sides, each with disheveled hair.

"Girl Shen, listen to me." It was Mrs. Li, the wife of the village head, who spoke. Li did not forget to pull up the fallen face towel to cover her ugly face, so as not to scare Shen Yuan.

After listening to Li's narration, Shen Yuan knew the whole story.

The population in the east of the village is much larger than that in the west of the village, but the water delivery vehicles did not think so much. Half of them were parked at Saiguping in the east and west, and half were parked under the big locust tree in the west of the village.

The people in the east of the village ran out of water quickly, so they went to fetch water under the big pagoda tree, but were stopped by the women in the west of the village, who even smashed their buckets, and a fight started like this.

Although Shen Yuan traveled here more than a year ago, she has the memory of the original owner. She knows that there are two groups of people from the west of the village and the east of the village, and it is the group of people from the west of the village who are unreasonable.

For example, when there is a drought in summer, every household urgently needs water to irrigate the rice fields, and the west of the village will cut off the water upstream, which will cause the rice fields in the east of the village to dry up and the seedlings will dry up. Doesn’t this mean that the population will be cut off? How can people survive if they can’t grow food? Can we not fight?
Besides, when cutting firewood in winter, the west of the village monopolizes the western mountains with a lot of firewood, and the people in the east of the village are not allowed to chop.

Shen Yu'an was about to take this opportunity to kill this kind of disharmony, when the village chief hurried over.

"Girl Shen." The village chief glanced at the women in distress, "It's not your fault, it's the problem of not enough water. It seems that just transporting water in a horse-drawn cart is not the solution."

After finishing speaking, he added, "The old men in the east of our village didn't make it. They only make it for the elderly and children, but it's still not enough."

After listening to the words of the village chief, Shen Yuan didn't have time to pay attention to the problem of fighting in the west and east of the village. This is the problem that needs to be solved urgently.

She frowned slightly, feeling worried.

There are thousands of people in the village, and each person has to soak three times a day, and it is not enough to soak in a day or two.

Those with mild symptoms like Mo Suijun have to soak for six or seven days. The villagers have been poisoned for a long time, and all of them are very serious. Many of them even lost their hair, and their bodies are covered with fish scales. God certainly cannot heal.

So where is enough water?
Although it has rained in the past few days, winter is not spring after all. The amount of rain can't even water the soil, let alone purify the water source. Neither well water nor stream water can be used in the village.

After thinking about it, Shen Yu said, "Don't worry, village chief, I will find a way to solve this problem." After speaking, he glanced sharply at the women in the west of the village.

"We are all of the same ancestors and clan, so don't have too much selfishness, otherwise~~"

"In the past two days, let the children and the elderly soak in the medicated bath first, and the men will wait until the water problem is solved, and then it will be their turn."

"Have you heard that?" The village head also cast a stern look at the people in the west of the village. The women in the west of the village agreed and then dispersed.

The weather was cold, and Shen Yuan also let the village chief and the others go home.

On the way back to the foot of the northern mountain, Shen Yuan kept thinking about how to solve the problem of water sources.

In modern times, the most commonly used method is to dig channels to divert water, but this is too slow.

The other is to connect the water pipe, this method should work.

There are no water pipes in this era, but bamboo can be used instead. She knows that there is a big bamboo forest in the nearby village. Bamboo is not expensive, and the distance is not far away. It should be completed in two or three days by hiring more people.

The water source is not a problem either. There is a large pool in the back of the nearby village, and it is not too difficult to get water from there.

After making up his mind, Shen Yu'an took action, and went to the town to ask the hidden guards for help, and seconded five hidden guards to act separately, to buy bamboo, and hire someone to clear out the wiring of the bamboo pipes. In fact, it is not far away, three or four miles away.

In the winter season, each village has a lot of hard work, and dozens of people are hired to work, and the bamboo pipes are put up one by one.

On the fourth day, the water flowed, and this water was directly placed next to the winery, so that it would be convenient for brewing water when the winery reopens in the future.

With water, everyone can safely decoct medicine and take a bath. This problem is completely solved.

At this time, the dermatitis on Mo Suijun's body has almost recovered, and it will be cured in a few days. Even the little rabbits are gradually getting better and start to grow white fluff.

And Shen Yuan also went to the town and bought a batch of chicken, duck and fish.

The portions I bought were particularly large, thirty chickens, ducks, and fish each, and two hundred catties of pork cut into pieces, ready to be used as cured meat.Of course, this includes the amount of Uncle Shen's family.

In addition, I asked the chicken, duck and fish sellers in the town to bring several carts of chicken, duck and fish to Shenjia Village for sale. Although the villagers are not very rich, these are must-buy things for Chinese New Year, and they are also convenient for those who are ill. Everyone.

Everyone's strange disease started to improve, so they stopped avoiding Shen Yuan.

One day, Shen Yuan went to Uncle Shen's house to visit them with a basket of fruits picked in his portable space. The whole family was sitting in the main room drinking tea and chatting. A carriage entered the village, and someone raised the curtain and poked his head out.

"Excuse me, is this the Shen Family Village? Does the Night King and Princess Night live here?"

Hearing that they were looking for the Night King and Princess Ye, everyone turned their attention to Shen Yuan.

"What's the matter looking for Ye Wang and Ye Wang?" Shen Yu'an looked over indifferently, and saw an old middle-aged woman, her brows were deeply furrowed, and she seemed to have a heavy heart in her heart.

"The woman wants to appeal to His Royal Highness Ye Wang and Ye Wang Concubine." The woman looked at Shen Yuan and burst into tears," and asked the girl to be kind and inform Ye Wang Concubine's address.

"What's wrong? Tell me." Shen Yuan handed the little nephew in his arms to his second sister-in-law Shen Hui, and then got up and walked out of the main room.

Seeing that Shen Yuan had a good temperament and good looks, the woman took the initiative to ask her why she was wronged, so she guessed her identity immediately, staggered down from the carriage, plopped and knelt down towards Shen Yuan, just a few clicks Ring your head.

"Princess Ye, I beg Concubine Ye to be the master of the people and avenge justice for the daughter of the civilian woman."
