Chapter 122
Mrs. Wang also laughed: "Whoever said no, how about saying that the son follows his mother, Caiyue grows up well, and the child is also beautiful."

Lu Anlang had just carried water into the courtyard, when he heard someone praise his son, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.Seeing Lu Anlang carrying water in, Hong Changqing's face darkened, "The water in the stream is getting less and less, and many springs on the mountain have no water. If the drought continues, I'm afraid that the village will not have enough water in the future."

Hong Changxi sighed: "Our village is better. The city heard that there was another well with no water. Some people went out of the city to carry water and then went to the city to sell it. Yesterday I saw someone fetching water downstream. When passing by the village head's house, I also listened to the village chief discussing with several village elders whether to dig a pond at the foot of the mountain, otherwise it will be difficult to fetch water no matter how small the current is."

Lu Anlang said: "It's a good thing to dig a pond, we can contribute to it then."

Hong Changqing smiled: "It goes without saying, I think the village chief will come and notify each house in a few days."

Just as he was talking, Shen Shishan, the third boy of the village head's family, looked in from the courtyard door, and saw someone knocked on the door first in the courtyard, and seeing everyone looking at him, Shen Shishan said: "The brothers and sisters-in-law are all here, My father asked me to go door-to-door to inform that we will go down the mountain to dig a pond in the next two days, and those who are 15 years old and above will come to my house in the afternoon to discuss how to dig the pond.”

Lu Anlang said: "Brother Shi Shan came in for some tea."

Shen Shishan was not too polite, went into the courtyard and took the tea poured by Lu Anlang, took a sip and said, "The tea from Brother Anlang's house is still delicious, this tea costs tens of pennies a tael in the city, right?"

Lu Anlang smiled: "How do I know what kind of tea? It's all made by your sister-in-law."

Shen Shishan naturally knew that Jiang Caiyue made these. People in the village are busy digging in the soil all day long, so who cares what kind of tea they drink?When I am thirsty, I just take a ladle and drink it in a jar. I have never seen such an exquisite person like Jiang Caiyue.

But Jiang Caiyue grew up in a wealthy family, so it is not surprising that she is particular about things, but after marrying Lu Anlang, she is still so particular about it, so she does not know whether it is a blessing or a curse.

After Shen Shishan drank the tea, Hong Changqing asked: "When the time comes, we will dig the water pond, how will we eat?"

Shen Shishan said: "Accordingly, each household should provide grain, but it is inevitable that some families will not be able to separate themselves to dig the pond. My father discussed with the village elders. If it is really necessary to separate the laborers, we can use grain as a substitute. .”

Hong Changqing asked again: "Then Changxi and I both go, so we don't have to pay for food?"

Shen Shishan said: "This matter has to be decided. If every family contributes to labor, the food will be provided by the family or they will all go home to eat. If there are many families who do not labor, and enough to eat, the village will provide food." Someone made it and sent it over to eat together."

There is nothing wrong with what Shen Shishan said, and Hong Changqing felt that there was not much work in the fields at this time, and every family was idle, and the people in the country were most generous with their strength. Who would be willing to pay for food when they are idle at home? They will all go out, so you still have to go back to your respective homes for lunch, or ask your family to deliver them.

Shen Shishan left without sitting down and went to the next household to inform. After Shen Shishan left, Jiang Caiyue's family also packed up. Lu Anlang carried Bao'er's pannier, and Jiang Caiyue carried another pannier with a cover on it. A layer of blue and white floral cloth, which contains a lot of things.

When Hong Changqing and the others came over, each of them carried a backpack, and there were several sacks in the backpack. Seeing Jiang Caiyue's backpack, Mrs. Wang asked with a smile, "What is Caiyue carrying? It's still bulging."
