Hong Hai'er whispered: "I knew it was like this! There is a lot of water, and you still give us that kind of broken water, huh, it's really not a good thing."
"Disciple, if someone is not related to you, giving you water is a favor, but not giving you water is human nature. Why do you complain so much?" Fang Zheng scolded in a low voice.
The red boy flattened his lips and said disapprovingly, "No, I'm dying of thirst. If he doesn't give it to me, I'll find it myself." After saying that, he turned around and ran to the well house.
Fang Zheng was eavesdropping outside the other person's room, and he couldn't shout loudly, so he could only follow him in an attempt to stop Red Boy.
Red Boy ran very fast and got into the well house.
The well house is an independent house with thicker walls. It is obviously specially built to prevent the sun's temperature from entering and evaporating the water.
Fang Zheng pushed the door open and saw Hong Boy standing there in a daze.
Fang Zheng followed Hong Boy's gaze and saw that there was something mysterious inside the well house. It was empty in the middle and surrounded by sloping roofs. There was a reservoir in the middle, and the reservoir was covered with a big lid. Now the lid is
It has been opened, revealing the water below... to be precise, it is a slightly damp cement pool!
Red Boy turned his head and looked at Fang Zheng with some doubts: "Master, where did they hide the water?"
Fang Zheng sighed and said, "It's all here..."
Seeing this, Fang Zheng has basically understood that this village is not short of water in general, but very short of water! Their water mainly comes from rainfall from the sky, and how often does it rain in this damn place? This is obviously a problem.
This house is used to save water and store water.
There is a bag next to it, which is powder for disinfection. The water I drank had a strange smell before, so it was probably the powder.
Red Boy pursed his lips and became silent. They had run out of water. They even brought him a big bowl, but he vomited it and complained all kinds of things. Now...
Fang Zheng patted Red Boy's head, left the water room, and returned to his room.
Not long after, Village Chief Lei came and asked the two of them to go out for dinner. They cooked potatoes and radishes. There was obviously a smell of disinfectant powder in the dishes, which tasted terrible. The rice was far inferior to the crystal rice from Yizhi Temple... But
Fang Zheng still ate two big bowls.
Back in the Zen room, Hong Hai'er looked at Fang Zheng with contempt and said, "They've run out of water, how dare you eat so much?"
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "People are treating you warmly. If you don't eat after one bite, doesn't it mean that the food they made is not delicious? That would be rude."
Hong Hai'er turned around and said, "Anyway, you have a point."
The two were about to say something when they suddenly heard a chaotic sound coming from outside. Many people were laughing, as if it was the New Year. Village Chief Lei rushed out with a smile on his face.
Fang Zheng and Hong Hai'er looked at each other and immediately followed them out.
I saw two carriages parked at the entrance of the village. The carriages contained many boxes and were covered with thick cloths. One of the carriages had opened the cloth, and you could see that it was filled with mineral water.
A group of men and women in brighter clothes stood at the door talking and laughing with the villagers. A woman wearing jeans and a big gauze even took a selfie with Huzi in her arms. Huzi had a look on his face.
He was nervous, but he smiled happily. It was obvious that this mobile phone was a new thing to him, and he also liked taking pictures.
A burly man wiped his sweat with a towel. As soon as Village Chief Lei came over, the two of them immediately gave a big bear hug, then laughed and said something.
Fang Zheng and Hong Haier walked over and saw Dachengzi. Fang Zheng immediately asked what happened.
Dachengzi smiled and said: "Uncles and sisters brought us water, haha... we can drink clean water again, haha..."
Fang Zheng was stunned. He didn't expect that the villagers were as happy as celebrating the New Year just because they could drink clean water! Thinking about his own life again, compared with them, it was like the paradise of Lingshan. What else could he complain about?
?
Fangzheng asked a few more questions, and then he learned that Daili Village has been severely short of water in recent years, and it is getting more and more scarce. Because of the lack of water, young people have gone out to work in order to survive, leaving a group of old people and left-behind children behind.
Life here is difficult. These old people cannot move out, nor can they survive outside. Coupled with the deep-rooted feelings, it is almost impossible for them to leave their hometown and leave here.
Without water, it is difficult for people to survive. They hope God will rain, which was okay before. But the rainfall has been less and less each year in the past two years. This year, the elderly in the village almost died of thirst. Village Chief Lei went everywhere for help, and the government also sent
People come here to look for groundwater and try to dig wells, but the groundwater here has long dried up and there is no place to dig wells. The government organizes people to transport water there, but the mountainous roads cannot be accessed by motor vehicles, so they can only rely on horse-drawn horses.
However, this was not a long-term solution, so I began to seek help from the society.
After everyone learned about the situation in Daili Village, many caring people from society formed a small group, and people used horses to pull water across the mountains and ridges every day to deliver it to the village.
The team in front of us is one of them, and the only team that has persisted. They have been delivering water for half a year. They usually deliver a truck of water in one or two days. On Saturday
On Sundays, if there are enough people, we will deliver a car. We will also give candies, school bags, and new clothes to the children. It can be said that they are the most welcome guests and best friends of the villagers.
Looking at the people in front of him, Fang Zheng was in awe. There are always some people who, not for fame and fortune, but just for a kind heart, work silently for others without asking for anything in return. There are many such people, but they rarely make the headlines.
, but precisely because of the existence of such a group of people, the world will become more and more beautiful.
However, Honghaier rolled his eyes and said, "Master, there are so many fools."
Snapped!
Fang Zheng slapped Hong Boy directly on the head. Before he even scolded him, he heard a scolding: "Stop, how can you beat a child?"
While he was talking, a woman wearing a pink top and khaki trousers ran over, picked up the red boy, and stared at Fang Zheng with her eyes like light bulbs. Fang Zheng thought, if there is a switch, it must be
A big eighty-watt light bulb! It’s too bright for your eyes!
The woman's skin is slightly yellowish, but she has a bit of spirituality even though she is dusty with life. She cannot be said to be very beautiful, but she is the kind of person who is attractive.
When the woman yelled, everyone in the motorcade also looked over. They were all stunned. In this village filled with yellow soil, there was such a fair-skinned monk. It was indeed too conspicuous. Especially the woman holding the red baby.
Looking at Fang Zheng like a monster, this monk's skin was actually better than hers! At that moment, the woman's mind was filled with countless information. To be able to wear such white clothes and maintain such good skin, this monk must not be a serious monk.
!At least he is not an ascetic, he must be a very particular kind... He even beats the children, which is quite fierce, he is almost as good as a fake monk. At least he is not the kind of hard-working and accomplished monk!
