With a scream, Xing Rui forcibly tied Zhao Chunhe's arms with two wooden sticks.
Just now I watched Zhao Chunhe get some black stuff like muddy cakes and apply it on his broken arm, but he didn't make a sound.
But at this moment, Xing Rui's powerful hand finally let out a terrifying howl.
Bang... As the howl fell, Zhao Chunhe fell to the ground like a zombie.
"Dad, dad, dad..."
Gou Sheng was so frightened that he ran over to his father and started crying.
Xing Rui originally thought of tying Zhao Chunhe's arms and leaving, but now he was lying on the ground like this, did he really want to watch and ignore him?
"Okay, kid, don't cry. Your dad just fainted from the pain and won't die."
After all, Xing Rui is not so vicious. To punish this bad guy, this broken arm is already the best punishment for him.
Leaning over, Xing Rui picked up Zhao Chunhe with all his strength and carried him to the fire bed in the room.
Looking at the three people lying on a big bed, Xing Rui shook his head.
He turned around and saw Gou Sheng standing behind him. He touched his little head and said,
"Auntie still has something to do at home. Look at your parents and sister. If you have anything to do, go find auntie at home."
"Um,"
The little boy nodded vigorously and watched Xing Rui walk out of the room.
After lunch, the men who dug wells didn't dare to rest for a minute while the weather cleared up, so they all went back to work on the new house.
After helping his godmother clear away the dishes, Xing Rui also followed over to check on the progress.
In fact, I am also curious about what stupid methods people used to dig wells in this era.
When she went over to see it, she was shocked.
It only took these big men a whole morning to dig a pit four to five meters deep. Looking down,
You will see that the wooden corrugations they pulled are regularly stacked on both sides of the well wall.
This obviously serves as a support to prevent the earth on both sides from collapsing and falling during the digging process.
Although ancient people did not have the high technology of modern people, the indigenous methods developed through labor were still very wise.
Even Xing Rui had to give people a thumbs up after seeing it.
Ten taels of silver, just these wooden tiles will cost a lot of money, obviously ten taels of silver is not much.
It was originally planned to take two days to drill the well, but it went very smoothly.
There is sufficient water around Dahe Village, and the wells can be drilled smoothly.
The final process was indeed a bit laborious. In order to prevent the bottom of the well from collapsing, they used trucks to pull a lot of large rocks.
From the time the water was dug out, stones were used to tamp both sides of the well wall. The bottom of the well was too narrow and could only accommodate two people working at a time.
As we dug deeper and deeper, the rest of the work was basically done in water.
In the end, I had to let a big man with a height of about 1.8 meters go down to the mine to operate, which was a waste of energy.
Xing Rui stood aside and sighed, it was really not easy to earn ten taels of silver, even though the weather was not very cold at this time.
But people are still shivering from the cold after soaking in well water like this all the time.
After paying the money and sending away these wet men, Xing Rui had mixed feelings in her heart.
"Now that the well is drilled, what's next?"
Liang Sheng had long noticed Xing Rui's kindness and saw her standing motionless at the door for a long time, so he called her.
"oh,"
Xing Rui turned around suddenly, looked at Liang Sheng, and then looked at the pile of sand and gravel that Liu Qiang had built up in the yard in the past few days.
"You have smoothed the road from our house to the well in the back, and spread a layer of sand and gravel so that we won't get muddy when it rains."
"Yeah, okay."
Liang Sheng took a shovel to repair the road, and Xing Rui found two soil baskets and picked out palm-sized stones from the gravel.
He fell on the stones that his son Xing Zihe and his brothers picked up from the river.
In this way, when Liang Sheng returned to the front yard after finishing everything, Xing Rui also picked up a lot of river pebbles.
"Are you going to lay down a layer of sand and a layer of stones?"
"Well, when we have time in the future, the entire yard will be covered with large river pebbles. I've seen it,
There are many river pebbles as big as a palm or even larger on the "Old River Beach".
At that time, we will all pull back and pave a path in the yard, so that we don’t have to worry about stepping in mud when it rains.”
Laohetan? Liang Sheng really didn’t know which place Xing Rui was talking about and how far away it was.
But it sounded like a good idea, so I nodded along.
Liang Sheng began to pour basket after basket of sand from behind, while Xing Rui continued to pick river pebbles.
When it was almost done, she also helped Liang Sheng spread the sand.
After paving a thickness of half a meter and three centimeters, Xing Rui and Liang Sheng began to carry river pebbles in baskets and began to pave the road piece by piece.
The work was slow and couldn't be rushed, so they didn't finish it before dark.
When we woke up early the next day, it started to rain lightly again, but the two of them started working on the unfinished work yesterday together with Yes.
After all the paving was completed, the light rain gradually subsided.
Xing Rui looked at the paved stones for a long time and asked Liang Sheng who was standing next to her.
"Do you think we should dig it out? Why do I feel that it's a bit unstable if it is laid flat like this?"
After hearing this, Liang Sheng looked around, and finally focused on the wooden pier in the yard, walked over and moved it over.
"Is it okay to use this?"
Xing Rui's eyes started to light up when he saw Mu Dun.
"Okay, I'll go get a rope."
Liang Sheng was surprised that Xing Rui had already run out, but after a while he found a thick and long hemp rope.
"What are you doing?"
"Tie the wooden pillars with ropes, and the two of us will chisel together."
Under Xing Rui's command, two people made a chisel out of wooden piers.
Following Xing Rui's slogan, each of the two people pulled the rope on one side and descended hard towards the paved stone pier.
Just like making rice cakes, there is something interesting about shouting slogans while working.
The drizzle started falling again, and the two men were chipping away at the paved stones.
Even if they didn't shout slogans as they chiseled, they could still hit it with all their strength in a tacit understanding.
"Xing Rui..."
The two of them were working enthusiastically, but Li Huimei walked over at this time holding an umbrella.
Looking at the gravel road paved by the two people, I couldn't help but look envious in my eyes.
"You two are really smart. I heard that the well has been drilled, so I came over to take a look."
"Sister-in-law, thank you Brother Han for finding the person. I was just busy working and didn't go home to thank you."
"What are you talking about? Why are you and your sister-in-law so outsiders now?"
While speaking, Li Huimei still glanced at Liang Sheng, but Liang Sheng just nodded expressionlessly and moved away.
"Xing Rui, you talk to my sister-in-law, I'm going to mow the grass."
"Well, you go ahead."
Liang Sheng walked away, but Li Huimei's eyes followed him for a long distance before looking back.
"Sister, you are the first person in our 'Dahe Village' to dig a well in your home. People in the village don't know how jealous they are."
