Xiang Xinqing was angry, so he looked toward the Xie family pond. He couldn't hear the sound, but when he saw the torch and them in the pond, he knew what was going on.

Thinking that the Xie family dared to imitate them in digging fish, he became even more angry, but he couldn't hit them, so he roared loudly: "Wow, what a big silver carp, five pounds!"

Everyone was frightened by his roar, and Xiang Ci was also frightened.

Xiang Xinbai kicked him again: "It's your fault."

Xiang Xinqing ran and hid again. In this mud, it was impossible to chase him like on the flat ground, so he dodged him again.

He dodged and sneered: "I just want to yell to the Xie family and let them listen. We dug the fish but they didn't. I'll make them mad."

These words made everyone look in the direction of Xie's pond, with evil looks in their eyes.

If the other party is not the Xie family, they may feel naive.

But if the other party is the Xie family, then it's not childish. It would be better to make them angry to death.

"Yes, I'm so angry with them that they actually imitated us in digging fish."

"You young bastards, don't just use your words, you have to use actions, so that we can be happy too."

"Yes, I agree with that. Qingzi just yelled and they didn't respond. That means they definitely didn't catch any fish. What about us?"

"So when you really dig a fish, you don't have to wait until the end. The sun comes out. Xie's family has a lot of harvest, but we are empty-handed, but it's really embarrassing that we have lost both face and face."

The words of the elders made the younger ones nod. Yes, they would be happy if they won, but if they lost... they would never lose.

Xiang Xinquan, who didn't talk much, held the dug fish and shouted: "Grass carp, nine pounds."

Everyone looked at Xiang Xinquan, who quickly lowered his head as if the words just now were not his.

But at this moment, there was a response from the Xie family: "Catfish, five pounds."

Xiang Xinquan, who was still in a daze and didn't like to talk, suddenly roared. When they heard the Xie family's counterattack, they all reacted.

Take the hoe and keep swinging it, trying to dig out bigger fish.

Then, the two villages seemed to be competing. Every time they dug out a fish, they shouted: "Grass carp, seven pounds."

The people from Xiejia Village would reply: "Catfish, ten pounds."

Even if they don't dig it, they will shout bravely when the people in Xiangjia Village shout. Anyway, they don't put the actual objects on the table and shout to save face for themselves. Why not?

In two villages, if you yell at me, the mountains will collapse.

Xiang Ci sat on the ridge of the field, hugging his knees and putting his chin on his lap. He looked happily this way and then that way, smiling and creasing his eyebrows.

About three hours later, almost all the fish in the pond were dug. The Xiangjia villagers carried buckets and basins and rushed home with a full harvest.

“I gained so much today.”

"Yeah, I've never seen so many fish."

"There are more fish than when we cleared the pond."

"In the past, we didn't dig the pond, we just caught it. This time we dug out the entire pond."

"Then there will be no fish in this pond from now on?"

This was a bit serious, but in this laughing space, I didn't care about it.

But their eyes all rolled, because they had something in mind.

Xiang Ci raised his eyes and looked at the villagers who were covered in mud, but all of them were smiling. Maybe, if the weather was like this and the ponds were dug clean, there would be no fish left.

Back in the village, everyone lined up to fetch water from the deep well, stood aside with the water, and took a bath here.

Ye Kai looked at the bath water running away and frowned.

It's such a waste to let this water drain away like this.

Moreover, the water after bathing can also be used to water the fields.

He had to discuss this matter with his grandfather and use the waste water.

The men in Xiangjia Village were bathing on the roadside. When the men in Xiejia Village returned to the village and wanted to fetch water for bathing, they were stopped by the village elders and women.

"You can't bathe with water, there isn't that much water."

"This well is almost dry. The water is for you to bathe in, so what should we drink?"

"This water must be kept for drinking, not wasted."

The men of the Xie family looked at me and I looked at you, we were all dumbfounded.

Just now, in order to compete with the people in Xiangjia Village, they shouted loudly, threw the fish loudly, and even picked up the fish and cheered.

So, they were covered in mud from head to toe.

As daybreak approaches, the temperature slowly rises. The soil that was still slightly moist before is now dry and wrapped around their bodies, making them look like beggar chickens wrapped in mud.

Only two eyes were exposed, full of distress, sadness, and regret.

No water, what a waste of time.

Xie Lizheng was also covered in mud. He looked at the well guarded by the villagers and said quietly: "We have no water. Doesn't Xiangjia Village also have water for bathing?"

It doesn't matter if he doesn't have water to bathe. As long as Old Man Xiang doesn't have water to bathe, his mentality will be much more balanced, and it's not a big deal.

A rough voice came from the crowd: "I remember a few months ago, Xiangjiacun asked Boss Bai and the others to dig some deep wells."

Xie Lizheng's pupils suddenly dilated: "Deep well?"

Why didn't he know when the deep well was dug?

The crowd was confused: "Li Zheng, a deep well has been drilled in Xiangjia Village. That means there is water. What should we do if we don't have water?"

"Li Zheng, our well is shallow and there isn't that much water in it. Otherwise, the water will be gone in a few days. What should we do?"

"Say it nicely, don't cry or yell."

"Li Zheng, let's dig a few deep wells too, shall we?"

"Yes, this method is feasible."

“Can the price of drilling a deep well a few months ago be the same as drilling a deep well now?”

These words made everyone think deeply, it was indeed different.

"And what we need to dig deep wells now is definitely not copper coins, but food. Do we have food?"

These words once again made the people of Xiejia Village deep in thought, and everyone was worried.

A woman sat on the ground, patted the ground and cried, "Oh, God wants to kill us. How can we survive without food and water?"

"I haven't showered in several days, and my whole body smells bad. I can't get through this day."

"Yesterday I went to dig potatoes in the field and my whole body smelled like sweat. You old ladies didn't let us use water. Now I smell so bad that I could be used as a mummy."

"Li Zheng, what should I do?"

"Is it fun to dig fish? Do you know how much water it takes to dig these fish? Do you know how much water it takes to dig these fish? Are you not thinking when you go out?"

"The people of Xiangjia Village deliberately harmed us, it was them."

"Why, last time we had a fight over stealing food, this time we're fighting over trying to steal water? Can you fight?"

The words came around again, and everyone was not only deep in thought, but also angry that they had fallen into the Xiangjia Village people's scheme. They had no choice but to look at Xie Lizheng.

Xie Li was looking at the hundreds of mud monkeys in front of him, thinking about how much water it would take to clean them all.

But the well is almost dry, and the old men and women in the village guarding the well will never give them water.

If they fight for water, they will dry up the remaining water by playing with it.

Headache!
