The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 161 Filling water by the stream
Silent night.

On winter nights, the villagers went to bed very early. It was very quiet outside, and not a single sound could be heard.Bai Meixi also turned off the lights early and went to bed.

She was thinking, Yao Jiusheng was a very smart and patient child despite his young age.If it were any other child, he wouldn't be able to dig such a deep hole in one day, and he persisted.

Now that there was a big puddle on the back mountain, Bai Meixi thought to herself that everything was ready except for the east wind.As long as she repairs the hole in the space, her plan will be completely completed.

Thinking like this, she couldn't lie still anyhow. She used her mind and entered the space, eager to finish what she wanted to do immediately.

When the Yao family's courtyard caught fire, the bricks and tiles she threw in had been neatly placed in the corner next to her.She stood in front of the bricks and tiles and examined them carefully. The bricks were good bricks and the tiles were good tiles, but she didn't know whether the pit was a serious pit.

Bai Meixi walked to the big hole she dug. She had already experimented with it last time. The soil in the space was too soft. As soon as water was poured in, the water quickly merged with the soil and became A pile of mud.

Now, it seems that these bricks in the space can be put to use.

Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running?Bai Meixi rolled up her sleeves and planned to get started.

Move all the bricks in the corner to the big pit you dug in advance. It will be more convenient when you are ready to use them for a while. Standing in the big pit, you can reach them with just a stretch of your hand.

After moving the bricks, Bai Meixi remembered that she had seen masons working on the construction site before. When they laid bricks, they always put some cement in the joints of the bricks, which would make them stronger.Bai Meixi thought to herself that if she could use cement to lay bricks in this pit, then the pit would be more leak-proof.

An idea flashed through Bai Meixi, and she suddenly remembered that after the Yao family compound caught fire last time, there was still a little cement left when repairing the house. Bai Meixi, a little money lover, thought that it might be useful, so she gave it to it. Stayed.At that time, I just threw it into the space casually. Now there are so many things in the space that I really forgot which corner I put them in.

Bai Meixi felt happy. Fortunately, she stayed at that time. She didn't expect that it would really come in handy this time.Bai Meixi patted the dust in her palms and secretly admired her foresight.

Ever since, Bai Meixi began to search the space for the small half bag of cement she had thrown in, and finally found it in the corner of the tile crack.

I found a larger basin and poured out all the cement in the bag.The cement kicked out layers of dust, which made Bai Meixi cough.

After finally hiding to the side and relaxing a little, Bai Meixi waited until all the dust on the cement had settled, then Bai Meixi filled a bucket of water in the Lingquan Pool.

She didn't know much about mixing cement, how much cement and how much water. She thought it was just a little bit of cement, and Bai Meixi was afraid it would be wasted, so she only added a little bit of water and stirred it gently.Then add water to it little by little, so that it won't be too watery and you won't be able to use it.

Although Bai Meixi has no experience, fortunately she has a brain and will not do anything that she is not sure of.

After mixing the cement to her satisfaction, Bai Meixi found a wooden board from the side.Without tools, I could only make do with thin wooden boards.

Everything was ready, Bai Meixi jumped into the pit, rolled up her sleeves, clenched her fists, and started to work.First, the bricks are piled up from the bottom of the pit. Bai Meixi is a person who pursues perfection. Even the bricks at the bottom of the pit are still arranged neatly.

Because the bottom of the pit is not particularly flat, Bai Meixi spent a lot of effort, laying bricks and leveling it at the same time, trying to make the pit look as beautiful as possible.Even if it wasn't beautiful, it would at least make her, a patient with obsessive-compulsive disorder, more comfortable to look at.

After the paving was completed, Bai Meixi used the wooden board to lift up the cement and fill the cracks between the bricks so that there would be no leaks after it dried.

That little bit of cement was pitiful, and Bai Meixi cherished it very much when using it.Finally, the pit was paved from the bottom to all sides, and the gaps that needed to be plastered were smoothed, leaving a little cement left.

Because too little was used at the beginning, Bai Meixi carefully looked at which areas needed to be repaired, and then filled them with cement slurry.

After seeing the work done, Bai Meixi felt satisfied.

After cleaning her own, she returned to her room and went to sleep.

The next day, after finishing her chores at home, she went to the back mountain.But this time she did not go directly to her field, but went to the creek and found the place with the most water. Seeing that there was no one around, she took a bucket and poured it into the pit she had just built last night. Fill it up.

Seeing that the puddle was full of water but not leaking at all, Bai Meixi gradually felt a sense of pride in her heart.She did this bit by bit with her own hands. She had never done such a job before, and she admired herself for being able to do it for the first time.

After filling up the water, Bai Meixi returned to the field she cultivated on the hillside with pride in her heart.

The pit Yao Jiusheng dug for himself is quite big, it can hold two large tanks full of water!On the small land she cultivated, it was quite enough for watering.

The upper hillside was silent, except for the occasional cheerful chirping of birds, which was the sound of the gurgling stream down the mountain.In order to prevent Yao Jiusheng from appearing suddenly like before, she also made a special inspection everywhere. She was relieved when she saw that no one was there.

Pour all the stream water that had just been filled in the big pit in the space into the big pit dug by Yao Jiusheng.In an instant, the water in the big pit was full, and the pebbles at the bottom of the pit were shining with beautiful patterns under the clear stream.The sun shines down and shines directly into the pit.

Bai Meixi looked at the slowly puddle of water, feeling indescribable pride in her heart. She was also very proud of her current achievements, although Yao Jiusheng also made great contributions here.

Now that the land has been cultivated and the water for irrigating the land has been diverted, everything is really ready, all it needs is the east wind.As long as she successfully germinates the sweet potato seedlings at home, she can plant the sweet potatoes. This large pit full of water will be enough to water the sweet potatoes.Bai Meixi is also full of confidence in planting sweet potatoes this time.

He stretched out his hand and slapped his tired waist, and then returned home full of expectations.
