The best girl traveled through time and took the system to escape.
Chapter 16 The ground is drying up
"I just said that Song Laoer didn't give a penny to Song Song's family. So he kept the money to buy an ox cart? He would rather starve to death the children he raised than buy an ox cart. How cruel."
A voice rang out from the crowd. The villagers took a look and saw that this wasn't Wang Xiulan and her sixth uncle?
No wonder you say these ugly things.
The other people in the village didn't tolerate him either, and started to criticize him one after another.
"You still want to share the money? Wang Laoliu, it's good that the Song family didn't ask Wang Xiulan's family to give money for their retirement every year. You said that Wang Xiulan's family is starving to death? Then you can give your niece some money, but I don't know if your mother-in-law is willing I don’t want to!”
"Yes, Song Laoer has raised Song Song so big. This nurturing kindness is greater than heaven. If I were Song Laoer, Song Song would have to give me a few taels of silver every year to show his respect."
"What's wrong with people buying cows? They're spending their own money. We're envious. It's not like you can't see how others are doing well."
……
Outside the courtyard of the Song family, Wang Laoliu's face turned red as the villagers spoke to each other.
"Did I mention you? One or two of them rushed to his house with jealousy on their faces. Is it possible that the Song family can buy you cows?"
"Bah! I don't know where this money came from!"
After saying that, he spat on the ground and turned around to leave.
The people in the village shook their heads. A man didn't work every day and just stared at other people's houses and made random guesses. No wonder his son didn't get a wife even when he was twenty.
There is a family of slackers, who would be willing to send their daughter to his family to be a cow and horse?
After unloading the grain, Song's mother invited the grain shop clerk into the yard: "Please rest here, I will ask my son to come back. Later, if he takes a liking to the cow, it will be fine."
The waiter Li Dazhuang ate the fruits washed by Mrs. Song: "It's okay, Auntie, my uncle's shop is not busy anyway."
Dou Xiaomei ran to the mountain to call Song Liu, but Song Nan and Liu Qiaoer stayed in the house without going out.
After a while, Dou Xiaomei ran back with a basket of herbs on her back, followed by Song Liu who was panting heavily.
Under the command of Song's mother, Song Liu and Dou Xiaomei took Li Dazhuang's car to the town to see the cattle. The money to buy the cattle belonged to Dou Xiaomei.
Seeing people driving away, those who were still watching the excitement felt strange.
Someone who was close to Song's mother came forward to talk to her, and then she learned that the ox cart just now did not belong to the Song family, but the Song family did want to buy cattle.
"Your family's life is getting more and more prosperous. You have bought cattle, but we can only barely eat enough."
Song's mother shook her head: "It's only because my second son has been working as a escort all the time that I saved this little money. If he hadn't learned the art well, he might not have come back alive."
People who were a little strange at first were speechless. They didn't have the guts to send their children to places like Escort Martial Arts School.
If you are not careful outside, it can be fatal!
It's better to farm at home and don't have to worry about it.
People in the village come and go quickly, and they are too embarrassed to stay in other people's homes. The big tree in the middle of the village is a good place for them to work and chat.
After closing the courtyard door, Song's mother took her granddaughter's hand and walked into the house.
Inside the room, Liu Qiaoer learned from Song Nan that her grandfather had "appeared" again, and her sewing stopped.
Song's mother came into the room and asked Song Nan, "Did your father say anything else?"
"I muttered a few words about the ground drying up and asking us to save more water, but he didn't say anything else."
Song Nan clasped little Song Xi's fingers and spoke out the prepared words.
Mother Song was shocked by these words and immediately went to the main room to pay her respects.
Liu Qiaoer also got up and went to the yard to look at the well.
The ground is going dry.
The ground is going dry.
Why does the ground dry up?
It’s not because there’s no water!
Farmers will not let the land dry out as long as there is water, unless...
"Shui Shui." Xiao Xi looked amused, pointed at the well outside the house and jumped.
"Yes, we need to store water."
Song Nan led her little niece to the kitchen.
The two water tanks in the kitchen were filled with water before Father Song and Song Bai went up the mountain, but this little water was of little use.
"Don't say this outside." Mother Song looked serious and walked over to Song Nan and Liu Qiao'er.
If you spill the beans, how do you explain it to others?
Is it possible that her daughter, Fang Peilan, can see ghosts?
"I'll go to town, you stay at home."
Song's mother hurried to the town.
In the town, Song Liu saw that Li Dazhuang's relative had no major problems with the cow, so he asked his second sister-in-law to pay for it.
After driving the cow to the entrance of the town, he saw the old lady coming with a serious look on her face.
"Find a place to put the oxen on the cart. Xiaomei is coming with me."
After Song Liu spent money to hitch the cow into a cart, he led the cow and found the two of them outside a shop.
After Mrs. Song paid, she turned around and saw her fourth son coming. She immediately asked him and Dou Xiaomei to put several water tanks in the car and tie them up.
Once the four water tanks were put away, only the corners of the bullock cart were left.
Song's mother also didn't take the car and stuffed the straw given by the shop owner into these corners.After everything was done, the three of them led the cow back.
Along the way, Song Liu and Dou Xiaomei didn't think about asking why they wanted to buy a water tank, but Song's mother kept silent about the reason and only said they would talk about it when they got home.
After returning home, the two of them found out the whole story. They looked at the giggling Song Nan and shook their heads and sighed.
Song Nan, who smiled happily when she saw the water tank, was puzzled. Why did the second sister-in-law and fourth brother look so strangely in their eyes?It's like she has an incurable disease.
On the way to fetch water from the water tank, Song Liu explained the situation of the cow.
"This cow has indeed eaten the wrong thing. I will give it some herbs and it will be fine in a few days."
Song Nan breathed a sigh of relief, because there was a doctor in her family, otherwise she would not have dared to buy this cow home for half a tael of silver.
After lunch, Song's father and Song Bai came back after going into the mountains.
After pouring a bowl of water, Father Song said:
"There isn't much water left in the mountains, and the water levels in several ponds have dropped by more than half. Animals are fighting for territory near the water, and we don't dare to go in when we see it."
"Yeah, you didn't see that bear fighting with the wolves, it was terrible!"
Song Bai waved his arms and spoke, making Song Nan's eyes light up.
Wolves and bears!
"Will they defeat both sides and then we will pick up the slack?"
"Don't think about it. If we could pick them up, my father and I would have been there waiting for them to come back after beating them. We looked and found that most of the wolves are cubs, and the black bears are not big either. They should all be cubs, big ones. None of them have come out yet.”
Song Bai suddenly hit Song Nan on the head, trying to dispel her idea.
Song Nan sighed. People who farmed and traveled through time would always encounter tigers and bears, wolves and wild boars...these animals would fight, and then they would profit by themselves, and they would make dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver when they were sold.
Why is it different here?
Not to mention seeing animals fighting, she has only been to the mountains once!
She just wants to change her survival point!
It’s so difficult!
Song's father learned that his daughter had seen his father again and hurriedly went to burn incense.
Old man: I’ve been eating very well these days.
A voice rang out from the crowd. The villagers took a look and saw that this wasn't Wang Xiulan and her sixth uncle?
No wonder you say these ugly things.
The other people in the village didn't tolerate him either, and started to criticize him one after another.
