On the way home, Wang was teaching Zhang Hulan a lesson, "Girl, why are you so angry now? Zhao Heigou is that kind of person, why are you competing with her? You need to change your temper, otherwise how can you get married in the future?"
"Okay, okay, I'll change it." Zhang Hulan agreed perfunctorily.
When they got home, Zhang Dahua and Daya had already cooked the meal. Wang told Old Man Zhang that the well was running out of water. Old Man Zhang immediately became anxious, "What should we do? Has the head of the village come up with a solution?"
Zhang Hujun said, "Dad, my eldest sister gave us an idea. She said we should go to the mountain to have a look. It's the mountain where water flows all year round. The village head said we should take a few people to the mountain to have a look tomorrow morning."
The adults didn't enjoy their meal tonight and tossed and turned all night long, unable to fall asleep.
It's not just the Zhang family. Not many people in the village can sleep tonight. They are all wondering what to do if there is no water.
In the middle of the night, a quarrel was heard in the village, waking up everyone in the village.
Zhang Hujun and Zhang Hulan both ran out to see what was happening and found that several villagers were fighting for water.

Zhang Hujun ran to the wellhead, took the torch from a villager and looked into the well.
There was really no water left in the well, only a little turbid water left at the bottom of the well.
Zhang Hujun was also panicked. There was no water at all. What should he do now?
Zhao Guoliang also rushed over, looked at the bottom of the well and said, "We can't wait any longer, let's go up the mountain to find water now."
Zhao Guoliang immediately asked the few people who were named yesterday to go home and get their things.
Bring a shovel, hoe, hatchet, chisel, hammer and rope.
Zhang Hulan said, "Uncle Lizheng, there is no need to rush for an hour or two, let's go after daybreak.
If you go there now, it'll be pitch dark and you won't be able to see anything.
It would be dangerous to light a torch. The weather is so dry now, it's easy to catch fire. It would be troublesome if the mountain caught fire."
Zhao Guoliang thought about it and felt that Zhang Hulan was right. If a fire burned the mountain, it would be a big trouble.
"Well, then let's wait until daybreak before going up the mountain."
