Chapter 27

Uncle Qi, Ji Yuanhai, Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang, Widow Liu and Wang Xiaohong also brought quilts, pots and bowls and other things. The group seemed to be "driving their families with them" and arrived at the production team headquarters quite strangely.

Ji Yuanshan has already changed his clothes and is waiting in front of the team headquarters.

The seventh uncle called out Cao Jianhong, a female educated youth, and told about Widow Liu's situation.

Cao Jianhong was a little unhappy. After all, the place he lived in was only so small. Just after Lu Heling left, there were a large one and a small one, making it even more crowded.However, the secretary spoke up, and since it was true that the orphans and widowers had nowhere to go, they had no choice but to agree.

Widow Liu led Wang Xiaohong to thank Cao Jianhong and another female educated youth repeatedly, and finally settled down.

The seventh uncle opened the warehouse of the team headquarters and took out several thick hemp ropes, each of which was as thick as two or three fingers side by side, 30 meters long, and because of the solid material, it seemed much heavier than ordinary ropes.

The seventh uncle, Ji Yuanshan Ji Yuanhai, Wang Lao Da Wang Lao Er left the team headquarters again and returned to the ditch blocked by stones.

The captain of the production team has already brought people here to gather together, and there is nothing he can do about the big rock under the water for a while.

A member of the commune laughed and scolded Wang Laoer: "Look at the ridiculous things your family is doing!"

Wang Lao Er was wronged, scratched his face awkwardly and laughed together: "I didn't expect that it has been raining heavily for the past two days, and the stone rolled down. It was originally placed by the side of the ditch."

The seventh uncle said: "The criticism and punishment of Wang Boss and Wang Lao Er will not be discussed until the rain stops!"

"Big guy, hurry up and get off the hemp rope! Open the water to the Yuejin River!"

Everyone hurriedly responded, sinking two hemp ropes into the water and clinging to the rocks on the bottom of the water.

Then the laborers held one end of the hemp rope and stood on both sides of the ditch.

The two hemp ropes were divided into four strands, two strands on the left and two strands on the right. Everyone worked together, shouting the cry of working hard.

"Turn on, work harder!" the Seventh Master shouted.

Everyone blushed hard: "Hey...hey! Hey!"

As soon as he yelled twice, the stones under the water were overturned, and the water flow became smoother and faster.

Apparently, the stones no longer hold back the flow of water.

"Let's leave it like this for now." The Seventh Master said.

As for taking the stone out of the water, there is currently no way to do it.

The stagnant water is being discharged through the ditch, and the current is so fast that there is no way for people to go down.

We have to wait for the water to flow for some time.

"We have to continue to investigate other places where the water cannot flow." The production team leader said, and glanced at the hemp rope, "Secretary, what should I do with the hemp rope?"

It turned out that during the conversation, two thick hemp ropes had already been pulled out of the water.

The other one was stuck by a stone and couldn't be pulled out no matter what.

The seventh uncle frowned a little: "This is our collective property, a thick hemp rope, very useful."

Ji Yuanhai stood next to the seventh uncle. When he heard this, he reminded: "This belongs to Wang Laoer's family. Let him fish out the rope."

The seventh uncle was also stunned when he heard it, and nodded slightly: "Yes, it's something that their family has tossed about. He has to find a way to solve the collective loss."

He raised his voice: "Wang Lao Er, Wang Lao Er, come here!"

Wang Laoer heard the sound and came over: "Secretary, what's going on?"

"This stone was made by your family. Now the brigade's hemp rope can't be found. What do you think we should do?"

Wang Lao Er hesitated for a moment and said, "I admit my mistake, I caused trouble to the brigade."

The seventh uncle frowned: "Is that enough if you admit your mistake? What should I do with the rope?"

"The secretary, tell me, what should I do?" Wang Laoer said.

"Either you get the hemp rope up now, or you pay the brigade a hemp rope." The seventh uncle said.

Wang Lao Er immediately gritted his teeth and grinned: "Hey, this... such a big hemp rope, I will pay for it?"

"Who will pay if you don't pay?" Ji Yuanhai said from the side, "Who made this stone? Why do so many people in our production team work here for a long time? Isn't it because of you?"

"It would be polite not to let you pay for the production team's lost wages, but you are still procrastinating with just a hemp rope?"

As soon as Ji Yuanhai opened his mouth, Ji Yuanshan followed suit, "Yes, that's it!"

Several other members of the production team also felt that it made sense: "Yes, that's the truth!"

"You have to get this hemp rope out, or you will pay for it."

Wang Laoer gritted his teeth and stared at Ji Yuanhai: "You boy, talk nonsense again!"

Ji Yuanhai laughed directly: "Are you still coming for me?"

He raised his voice: "Secretary, Captain, look, Wang Laoer is not convinced!"

The seventh uncle immediately cooperated: "Old Wang, you pay for the hemp rope I said, why are you not convinced? This canal is not blocked by your house? Isn't it because of what you did that so many people are standing here?"

Wang Lao Er opened his mouth, not daring to refute.

Then he said: "Then when the water recedes, I will get out the hemp rope..."

There was no need for Ji Yuanhai, the seventh uncle and others to say this, someone said: "When the time comes, the hemp rope will be soaked, so it will be of no use!"

Wang Lao Er was helpless, and after thinking about it, he was still reluctant to pay for the hemp rope.

"I'll wait a while and try to find a way to pick up the hemp rope."

"Then you can think of a way. If you can't think of a way, you will pay compensation." The seventh uncle said, and then he called on everyone to continue investigating along the ditch.

Wang Laoer agreed dejectedly, and stood by the ditch, looking at the hemp rope, but there was nothing he could do.

So many people couldn't pull it away just now, and he certainly couldn't pull it out either.

From Xiaoshan Village to the entrance of Yuejin River, the seventh uncle and the captain of the production team led everyone around and cleared two places that were not smooth.

The water flow in the ditch is fast, and if you look into the river from a distance, the water flow is also very fast.

Just as everyone was on their way back to Xiaoshan Village, it rained heavily again, making everyone a little worried that the rain would come again and the crops would fail.

Fortunately, after this period of heavy rain, the rain gradually stopped, and a large area of ​​bright sunset appeared behind the mountains in the west.

Seeing the sunset, the members all showed genuine smiles of joy.

Ji Yuanhai's father said to Ji Yuanshan and Ji Yuanhai: "It's better now, the rain has stopped!"

When the sunset glows, it should be raining.

A group of people walked back to Xiaoshantun. On the way, they saw Wang Laoer still guarding the ditch and trying to fish for hemp rope.

Many people couldn't help laughing and joking, but Wang Laoer was furious and had nothing to do.

The water level in the canal has dropped a bit, and the accumulated water on the road has also dropped. The water is still running fast, and Wang Laoer really has no way to fish out the hemp rope.

The team would definitely not agree to soaking it for two days before fishing it out.

Ji Yuanhai looked at Wang Laoer's dilemma and just smiled, but he couldn't say how happy he was.

This can't be called "settling accounts", there is still time to settle accounts in the future.

"Hey, Yuan Hai, do you see that over there? There's a big fish!"

Ji Yuanshan suddenly poked Ji Yuanhai with his elbow.

Ji Yuanhai looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a pattern of water slowly spreading on the water surface under a tree beside the canal not far away.

Apparently a fish had just come out for a spin.
