I am happy to be a mother in a famine year, I have a system to farm the land

"Have everyone stored enough water for their homes in the past two days?"

Everyone nodded again and again, "It's already enough, our water cellar is already full of water."

"When my father was building a water cellar, I thought it was unnecessary, but now I think it is a good thing to have a water cellar at home."

The rest of the people also nodded, "Isn't that right? We had a drought here before, and I thought the water cellar was useless. I wanted to fill it up a few days ago, but I didn't expect it to be used now."

Everyone felt a little embarrassed when they thought of their previous idea of ​​filling up the water cellar.

"Fortunately, we didn't fill up the water cellar this time, otherwise we wouldn't be able to store much water this time."

Everyone secretly rejoiced in their hearts that they did not fill up their water cellars this time, nor did they sell the water tanks.

But at this time, people who don't have a water tank at home can't help but feel annoyed in their hearts.

Just like Zhu's family, Zhu Qiuqi has taken the water tank of Zhu's family, and their water storage is limited.

And those who didn't dig the water cellar were also annoyed at this time.If they had dug a water cellar back then, they would have been able to store more water.

But there is no way to help in this kind of thing. After all, the situation of each family is different. What he can do is to let each household save more water.

"Since everyone has stored enough water, let's put the water in the field tonight to have a look."

Although everyone was already mentally prepared, they still couldn't help getting excited when they heard Li Zheng say that they were going to put the water in the fields.

Originally, they thought that there would be no harvest this year, but they didn't expect such a harvest.

"When will Lizheng open the gate to release the water, we are all waiting for you."

Everyone also knows that the water storage and watering of the fields in Xiaozhang Village are done secretly at night.

The other villages couldn't find out about this, so if they wanted to irrigate their fields, they had to work at night.

Lizheng saw that it was getting late, so he thought about it carefully, and then said: "Irrigate the field early, and we can feel at ease earlier, so let's open the gate to release the water tonight."

When everyone heard Li Zheng's words, they couldn't help cheering.

If the crops in their fields can be irrigated with water, maybe they can also harvest more food this year.

The sky has not yet darkened, and everyone has already waited excitedly on the ground.And the few women who wanted to come into the village to have a look were all driven out of the village by the villagers.

Although those people also noticed that Xiaozhangzhuang seemed to be hiding something from them these days, the people in Xiaozhangzhuang were strictly on guard and would not let them know at all.

Even if the women wanted to inquire, they couldn't find out the specific situation.

Zhang Daniu's daughter-in-law rolled her eyes, always feeling that Li was hiding it from them on purpose.

If Lizheng didn't want them to know about it, if she found out about the situation, she might be able to use it to threaten Xiao Zhangzhuang people.

At that time, even if she took lotus roots for her natal family, the people in Xiao Zhangzhuang would not do anything to her.

Zhang Daniu's daughter-in-law had a good plan, but she didn't expect that the people in Xiaozhang Village were not guarding lotus roots this time, but water sources.

What's more, the people of Xiaozhangzhuang didn't think about occupying the water source alone, but planned to hand over the water source to the government.

Even if Zhang Daniu's daughter-in-law disclosed the matter, this water source would not become their natal village by then.

The woman guarding the entrance of the village saw Zhang Daniu's daughter-in-law walking around the entrance of the village, she saw that she had no good intentions, and couldn't help but slander her in her heart.

He planned to close his eyes and tell Li Zheng the situation of Zhang Daniu's wife tonight, so that Li Zheng could get rid of this person as soon as possible.

They have been guarding the entrance of this village for several days, but Zhang Daniu's daughter-in-law is just like the one who can't understand human speech, and she has no intention of leaving in Xiaozhang village.

Even if Zhang Daniu opened his mouth to drive people away in person, his wife had no intention of leaving.On the contrary, the other party saw Zhang Daniu coming, and became even more noisy.

Sometimes everyone is also thinking, if Lizheng can open a ancestral hall and divorce these careless things, their Xiaozhangzhuang will be stable for a while.

But now everyone is waiting to water the fields, and these people are not considered at all.

Finally, when Li Zheng opened the gate to release the water, everyone's eyes seemed to be glued to the water.

Until the water in the canal actually flowed into the field, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help cheering at the same time.

"It's great, these crops in our field have also been saved."

"Yes, our food is saved."

Some elderly people couldn't help wiping their tears when they saw the water really flowing into the fields.

Everyone thought that the crops in Xiao Zhangzhuang's field could be solved this time, but they didn't expect that when the water was halfway, everyone found that it seemed that only the fields near the canal could be irrigated, and the fields far away from the canal and near the forest were irrigated. But the side fields cannot be irrigated.

Some people whose fields are close to mountains and forests feel anxious when they see that their fields cannot be watered.

If they wanted to water their fields, they had to carry buckets of slurry over there.

But now that the fields on the side of the canal have been irrigated, it will be difficult for them to pass by this side.

Seeing that the long stream of water couldn't reach their fields, everyone sighed and hurried to find Li Zheng.

Because they can't solve this matter by themselves, especially on the side near the mountains and forests, they don't know how to deal with it, and everyone can only find a way.

Li Zhengyuan was still eating lunch at home, but today he has been busy working on the canal, and he has no chance to eat at all throughout the day.

Now that the sky is getting dark, he also has the opportunity to have a good mouthful of warm food.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the bowl and chopsticks were picked up, there was a burst of knocking on the door.

Li Zheng and his wife couldn't help but looked at each other, finally sighed, put down the bowls and chopsticks and strode outside.

When Lizheng's wife saw that her husband couldn't even eat a good meal in peace, her eyes were full of distress.

But she also knew that her husband was the Lizheng of this small Zhangzhuang, and she had to give priority to the villagers in everything.

"Hey, your father is also very old now, and he doesn't know when the toss will end."

Lizheng's hair was already grey, and his wife was also worried that something would happen to him when he saw his husband like this.

Seeing his son still eating, he couldn't help but slap his son.

"Don't just focus on eating, go and see what's going on in the field. It's better not to have anything happen at night."
