Chapter 232 I'm thinking about the pond, flower lady

The weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day, but there is still no rain in the sky. The paddy fields need more and more water, but the water level of the river is getting lower and lower. If it goes on like this, it will soon be enough, and the people in the village are beginning to be a little anxious.

Since ancient times, it has rained when spring comes. Generally, it rains around Tomb-sweeping Day. When it comes to the valley rain season, it should rain more.

As the saying goes, 'Before and after the grain rain, grow melons and beans', which means that temperature and water are the best season at this time. However, this year, whether it is Tomb-sweeping Day or Grain Rain, a drop of water from the sky has not fallen.

There is still a group of women washing clothes by the river today. They are all worried about the rain. Not to mention that they are all farmers. They have to make a living by farming, but they don't farm. It doesn't rain. At that time, they will not need food, and it will cost more money to buy things than usual. How can Not worried?

"It's really hot this day, but there is no meaning that a drop of rain is coming down. Is this a dry year? So what can we do with our crops?

A daughter-in-law said, and she pounced on her face with her hand stained with water, making her face cooler, but her eyebrows were still frowned. Obviously, she was still anxious.

Another woman said, "No, it's too hot this day. It hasn't been so hot at this time in previous years, and it hasn't rained. Look at the river's gone down."

Everyone looked at the river in front of them. This river is what they often want to see. As long as the water level is high or low, it can be seen.

"Alas! The river is so low that even the stone over there is exposed. It didn't show up last year!"

Another woman pointed to a stone next to her and said that the stone was farther away from the river. It had just emerged from the water recently and was covered with gray-green things. At first glance, it has been in the water for many years. When others looked at it, they nodded one after another. They always wash clothes here. Naturally, I know that this stone is newly exposed.

Sister-in-law Li, the tree root sister-in-law, was also washing clothes. Hearing their words, they looked at each other and sighed. They were also anxious, but they knew that it was useless to be in a hurry. This is what Zhao said. The more anxious I am, the more anxious I am to listen to this.

Wang Huazhi also washed clothes here today. She asked worriedly, "It won't rain like this day, will it? My family is pointing to those two acres of land.

Wang Huazhi lives with a woman with a son. There are orphans and widows, and there are only two acres of land at home. And the land is also in the east of the river, and the yield is pitiful. If it is not watered, there will definitely not be much harvest. Other people have men in their families who can also do part-time jobs, but her family can't take this road, so she is naturally more anxious.

Sister-in-law Li said, "Don't worry, the field in your house is wheat, but it's not rice, if it's rice. That's really pitiful. Well, I have three mu of rice at home, and I'm worried now.

"No, I also have three mu of rice at home. There are many people in our village who have this kind of rice. If it doesn't rain all the time. If there is less water in this river, it will definitely not be enough for the paddy fields of all of us.

Sister-in-law hit her clothes with a stick hard on the side, as if she wanted to beat out the anger in her heart.

When Wang Huazhi was told by them, he thought to himself that his own house is wheat. As long as he persists for more than a month, he can get some food. It's much better than the kind of rice that doesn't grow when he can't find water.

When they talked about the paddy field, the women next to them also talked about it.

The tree root sister-in-law saw that they became more and more anxious. Although she was also anxious, she still said, "Don't worry, everyone. When is this? We can't be in a hurry when it rains in previous years. Maybe it will rain in a few days. At that time, there were three rains.

Many people feel a little relieved because of the words of the tree root sister-in-law, but there are still some people who are not so optimistic. The new flower lady is one of them.

"Three rains at the top of one rain? How can it be so easy? I think there may be a big drought this year. You see, the river is less. I have lived for so many years. Since I got married to this riverside village, I have seen the river water so low once. That year was a year of drought. In that year, people starved to death in the village, and many people sold their children.

As soon as the flower woman said this, some older women showed a palpitation expression on their faces. Obviously, they also remembered the things of that year.

Daughter-in-laws like sister-in-law Li, although she was not too old at that time, she also had a memory. After listening to it, she didn't know what to say. She thought that if it was such a big drought, it would be bad.

The flower woman saw her words and scared these people, with a proud smile on her face. She liked others because her words changed their face, as if that showed how important she was.

"But don't worry too much. I don't think this year may be the same as that year. You see that the water eye was dug out in the garden of the fourth son of the Shen family a few days ago, which means that the water here is still quite sufficient. Are you afraid that there is no water to use?

As soon as the flower woman said this, the women seemed to have been fed a mouthful of cold water when they were thirsty, as if the situation was not as bad as they thought.

"No, there is still water under the ground. If it doesn't rain, we can dig out the water by digging a well. What are we afraid of?"

"Yes, although the river has fallen now, isn't it the hottest time yet?"

"Even if there is not enough water in the river, isn't there still water in Fuyuan?"

"Yes, I went to see it the other day. The pond in the garden of the fourth son of the Shen family is full of water, and the water is going to overflow, but it is much more than the water of this river."

"That water eye is really good. Maybe it's connected to the water eye in the big green mountain!"

"Zi'an and his sweethearts are good, and they will definitely let us use the water at that time."

"There's no need to worry now!"

Everyone said a word and said that they all thought of the pool of water in Shen Zi'an's house, and felt that there seemed to be more water than the river. At least the water did not fall like the river.

Sister-in-law listened to these people. I think that these people are really out of sight. That pond is the one of Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi. In their garden, let them say as if they can use it if they want to. But they also want to be in the year of the drought. If there is water in the pond in Fuyuan, someone must be going to use it, and Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi really can't stop it. Otherwise, it will definitely cause public anger.

Of course, they all feel that the Shen Zi'an couple are definitely not the kind of people who have water but are not used by people.

"Oh, look, isn't that Zi'an's daughter-in-law? She is coming. Let's ask her if the water in her pond has fallen in the past few days.

These people were talking about the hustle and bustle. The flower woman's eyes were sharp, and she saw Su Zhi coming over. He said it out loud immediately.

Su Zhi was wearing a light green shirt all the way up to her knees. She wore blue loose trousers underneath, half of her feet were covered, and a pair of dark blue cloth shoes were below. It is embroidered with green patterns. This kind of dress is often made by rural women, and some people wear skirts, but it's too waste of cloth, and it's inconvenient to work, so there are still few people wearing it.

Su Zhi wears such a suit because she feels hot, so she looks cooler. You know, you have to wear a pair of trousers under the skirt at this time. It's equivalent to wearing an extra layer. Su Zhi thought that she couldn't show her legs in ancient times, and she couldn't wear an extra layer in order to look good, so she didn't get that sin.

But Su Zhi is just like this, and the style comes in the eyes of a group of women. I still think she is easy to wear and decent.

"Hon-in-law and aunts, it's really hot today. Are you still cool by the water? I heard you talking and laughing from afar.

Su Zhi smiled and greeted her. The veil in her hand wiped her forehead. When she came out, she wet the veil with water to wipe her face, which could cool down. She felt that it was really hot. Looking at these women washing clothes by the river, although the willow leaves did not cover much sunlight, they still felt very cool.

Everyone hurriedly greeted Su Zhi and asked her to come and sit down.

Su Zhi's popularity is very good now. Her method of kang is not in vain, because this winter is warmer than usual. At least she can sleep warmly and be a warm place during the day. This warmth was given by Su Zhi. Everyone accepted her affection and felt that Su Zhi was a good person. Moreover, Su Zhi herself is a good person to get along with. She always smiles when she sees people. Although her eyebrows are not so crooked, the corners of her mouth are only slightly raised, which makes people feel that she is really intimate with you, so they all like to be with her.

Seeing that the tree root sister-in-law and several people were also there, Su Zhi walked down the river slope, found an empty stone and sat down. Unfortunately, it was the flower lady sitting next to this place.

"Good, Aunt Hua."

Su Zhi greeted the flower lady with a smile. She didn't have a good impression on the flower lady. This woman is a long-tongued woman, but she doesn't have much disgust, because it is a common problem of women. As long as she doesn't have much bad intentions, Su Zhi will not hate her. She said hello to the flower woman, just by the way, and there was no loss. But if she didn't say hello and offended such a long-tongued woman, maybe she would say something about her.

It's better to offend a gentleman than to offend a villain.

That's what Su Zhi thinks, especially when this little man may be an old woman who likes to talk about right and wrong, if he doesn't provoke him, don't provoke him, and he can't waste time on such people.

"Oh, good, good, good to you, Zi'an's daughter-in-law."

The flower lady was very happy because of Su Zhi's greeting. Now who doesn't know that Shen Zi'an's daughter-in-law is a blessed and able person, and it's comfortable to talk to her. The relationship between the flower lady and the Shen family is not very good, because she leaked the story of Shen Yu, the eldest girl of the Shen family, at the beginning. The people of the Shen family have no good face when they see her, and she often squeezes the Shen family with this matter, especially when she quarrels with the Sun family, she shouted as loudly as possible But this also made her and the Shen family hurt their harmony.

Now that Su Zhi saw her and greeted her with a smile, she thought to herself that Su Zhi was sensible.

To put it bluntly, the flower lady is an old woman with a face-saving mouth. If she gives her a good face, she will also give her a good face.

"Daughter-in-law, did you make your own clothes? This pin is really good. Look at the embroidered flowers on it, it's just like the real thing. It's so skillful. No wonder it's so good.

The flower lady praised Su Zhi. She is not a boast. Su Zhi's needle and thread are really good, and the embroidery work is naturally not a problem. As long as she has time, she and Yueyue's clothes are embroidered by her. Although it is not a big flower, it is very beautiful to embroider some on the edges of the cuff . These clothes, not to mention that you can attract a lot of attention as soon as you walk in the village, it's not a shame to enter the town.

Su Zhi smiled and said, "Aunchur, don't praise me. Which of the sisters-in-law and aunts in our village is not skillful? What am I? As long as you are diligent, you can live a good life. I think Aunt Hua, your family will have a good life. The Dabao brothers are about to get married, right? At that time, you can definitely say a clever daughter-in-law. At that time, you can wait for Aunt Hua to enjoy happiness. On that day, you will definitely go to the next level.

"Ouch! Take it to the next level, what you said is really nice!"

The flower woman listened to Su Zhi's words and happily took Su Zhi's hand and patted her. Su Zhi's words reached her heart, and she immediately felt better.

Su Zhi was held by the flower woman and was embarrassed. She thought that this was just the most ordinary way to deal with people. This old woman was really serious. However, this old lady can remember her good. Let her clap her hands. It's better to have more friends than many enemies.

As soon as others saw Su Zhi's words, the flower woman was so happy. She thought to herself that this daughter-in-law was able to talk. It was really pleasant. If someone married such a little daughter-in-law, it would really burn incense.

At this time, people seem to have forgotten that they once regarded Su Zhi as a broom star.

Su Zhi cleverly pulled her hand back and asked them what they were talking about just now.

Everyone immediately scrambled to speak, worried about the weather, and finally went to the pond of Su Zhi's house. Everyone looked at Su Zhi's face to see if she was willing to give the pond to them at that time. As a result, they were happy to see that Su Zhi did not show dissatisfaction. The look is coming.

Su Zhi's heart was actually a little fluctuated. She thought that if it was really a big drought, her family would become a water source. It was a pity that she was happy that there was enough water at home. It seemed that she was happy for nothing. Moreover, she doesn't want to add spiritual springs to the pond to raise lotus flowers this year.

"If there is really a big drought, you can naturally go there to get water, but I hope it won't be that day. It's going to rain soon. It's all about to beg Yu Niang. It must be useful."

Su Zhi said that if there was a severe drought, she would naturally not stop people from using water.

As soon as Su Zhi said this, everyone was happy. They thought that Su Zhi was indeed a kind-hearted person, but some people showed anger on their faces. RQ
