Ye Shen compromised and just screamed. He actually liked hearing it...
"You can't shout when there are outsiders, just call me by my name." He whispered. This voice could only be heard by himself.
Hua Zhao understood, and immediately blushed and glanced at him.
"Brother!~~"
She screamed sweetly on purpose, and the little paw-like voice instantly shocked herself.
Ye Shen's eyes instantly became darker.
The pressure of that gaze made her feel like a rabbit being stared at by a wolf... She immediately did not dare to make any more trouble, pointed at the mouth of the well and said: "Why is this well closed? Can it still be used?"
Ye Shen didn't say anything, but still stared at her.
She's so naughty, should he go over and "teach her a lesson"?
Hua Zhao secretly laughed in his heart. He really didn't dare to make a fuss anymore. He lowered his head and lifted up the thick bluestone slab, revealing the mouth of the well.
Ye Shen sighed, walked over quickly, held her arm with one hand and held her waist with the other: "This well is very deep, don't get close."
"Is it very deep?" Hua Zhao stretched his neck and looked inside.
She looked through the roots of the plants and saw that the wellhead was three or four meters away from the water surface, but now it was so dark that the bottom could not be seen. The well had long since dried up, and there was silt underneath.
There is a box buried shallowly under the mud.
This box doesn't look like it was buried, but it looks like it was thrown in, and then the water dried up and it got stuck in the mud.
"I have a little impression of this well. It has been sealed since I was a child. It seems that my second uncle fell in when he was a child. Fortunately, he was fished out in time, but the well has been sealed since then," Ye Shen said.
It was 1958 when the house was taken away and rented. Ye Shen lived in this yard for several years during his childhood and has some memories of it.
"That's it." Hua Zhao looked at the well mouth and said with a pity on his face: "It's good to have a well in this yard. How much can we save on water bills in a year? Why don't we use it again?"
"No need." Ye Shen refused: "I'm tired of carrying water..." After saying this, he remembered that the little girl in his arms had amazing strength. For her, she could probably carry a bucket of water with just one little finger.
.
"That's not necessary." He said: "In the future, there will be children at home, so there will be no danger."
He had heard that his uncle had fallen into it when he was a child, and he didn't feel anything at all... But now when he thinks that his own child might fall in in the future, he wishes he could fill up the well immediately!
He dragged Hua Zhao to look for tools in the yard, feeling the urge to do whatever he wanted.
Hua Zhao didn't know whether to laugh or cry after knowing his thoughts, but he was also very happy. Men like children, and it is a good thing to know how to prepare for rainy days and nip problems in the bud.
"I still like well water. It's great for watering flowers and vegetables. It's too painful to water the ground with tap water, and the things I grow lose their fragrance!" Hua Zhao said.
Ye Shen immediately looked at her sideways, wanting to say that she spent 30 yuan to buy three flower pots...this money was enough for her to pay the water bill for a year.
But he thought for a while and said nothing.
"At worst, we can make a lockable lid at the wellhead and lock it when not in use." Hua Zhao said and took a few steps towards the wellhead.
Her strength was too great. If Ye Shen didn't use force, he couldn't pull her. Even if he used force, he wouldn't be able to pull her... What's more, he didn't dare to use too much force, so he had to follow her to the mouth of the well.
At the bottom of the well, the roots of the plants were growing and turning wildly. A box was gently pushed up, and the metal edging on one corner of the box was rubbed shiny and exposed.
Hua Zhao looked around and saw it.
"Hey! Brother, look, what is that?" Hua Zhao exclaimed.
Ye Shen pulled her behind him and bent down to take a look. Under the weak sunlight, the metallic luster flashed in the darkness.
