Zhao Wei turned and walked towards the experimental field, but he was still thinking about Yunxiu's condition last night.
She has always been calm, how could she suddenly become so impetuous?
Is it a reaction to pregnancy?
But he had never heard of pregnancy being so disturbing before.
In the experimental field, the rice seedlings are growing well, and the green color is a joy to look at.
However, Expert Yan and another expert have already left.
They are not from this village, and it is impossible for them to stay in the village forever and ignore their own families.
It is said that the drought in their village is also very serious, and many families in the village can no longer afford to eat.
The biggest problem is the lack of drinking water. Many families get up early and go to bed late every day, and have to carry back a bucket of water from far away.
Water has become as precious as oil, making it almost unaffordable for many people.
Yushu has water storage due to its terrain. Other villages do not have this convenience. Even if they want to draw water, it is difficult to do so in some places.
For example, there is no way for expert Yan’s village to be separated because it is too far away and there are two rivers in between.
Once the water is brought here, it will probably flow downstream along the river in no time.
What can I do?
They can only bear it on their own. As farmers who rely on the weather for their livelihood, they have to be prepared to encounter all kinds of extreme natural weather.
At this time, in Yushudunli.
The villagers were each doing their own job, some were watering, some were weeding, it was a busy scene.
Zhao Wei walked on the ridge of the field, carefully observing the growth of the rice seedlings, trying to divert his attention away from Yunxiu's affairs.
But the more I tried to ignore it, the more doubts I had.
He remembered the uneasiness in Yunxiu's voice when she leaned on his shoulder, and her words "Let's wait and see after a few days", and he always felt that things were not that simple.
When Yunxiu returned home for lunch at noon, she was in a better mood and was busy in the kitchen with Wang Caigu.
Seeing Zhao Wei coming back, she smiled: "You're back? Wash your hands and have dinner. I made your favorite stewed beans today."
Zhao Wei walked over and gently hugged Yunxiu from behind: "How do you feel today? Are you okay?"
Yunxiu's body stiffened for a moment, then she relaxed and said softly, "I'm fine. I just felt a little nauseous when I woke up this morning. I'm much better now."
Zhao Wei knew she wasn't telling the truth, but he didn't ask any further questions. He just whispered in her ear: "If there is anything, you must tell me. Don't carry it alone."
Yunxiu nodded, turned around, and forced a smile: "I know, let's eat quickly, the food is getting cold."
After dinner, Zhao Wei was stretching his limbs in the yard when he saw Huangmao running over breathlessly: "Master, it's bad, the people from Lijiaao are here again!"
Zhao Wei was annoyed and asked in a bad tone, "What are they doing here?"
"I don't know. I just saw a lot of people gathered at the entrance of their village. They seemed to be discussing something, and they looked up to someone with bad intentions." Huangmao said anxiously.
Zhao Wei frowned, wondering if the people from Lijiaao were unwilling to accept this and wanted to cause trouble again?
These people will not give up until they reach the Yellow River.
He said to Huang Mao, "Come with me to take a look."
The two of them walked quickly towards the village entrance and saw people from Lijiaao standing at the entrance from afar.
They were holding hoes, shoulder poles and other farm tools in their hands, and it looked like they had bad intentions.
Zhao Wei walked forward and looked at them coldly: "What are you doing here?"
When one of them saw Zhao Wei, a look of indifference appeared on his face.
"Why are you panicking? Didn't you say that if we bring everyone in the village here, they will agree to let us divert the canal?"
"Now, all the strong laborers in our village are here. You can't find excuses to chase them away!"
Zhao Wei raised his eyebrows: "I see. Since you are willing to work so hard, we from Yushutun will naturally treat you equally and design a suitable canal map for you."
"This will take a while, so why don't you guys... go back and wait?"
"Wait? Don't bother. We don't need you to design anything. We can do it ourselves."
Without even a picture, this doesn't look like a serious person.
Zhao Wei looked at the group of people in front of him. Each of them had an impatient look on their face, and they were holding the farm tools tightly in their hands, as if they were ready to take action at any time.
Tsk tsk... I don't want to wait even a day.
"You guys do it yourself?" Zhao Wei's voice was a little colder. "We, Yushudun, built this canal with great difficulty. There must be rules for how to dig and divert the water. If you mess around and damage the canal, who will be held responsible?"
"We are responsible for this ourselves!" A tall man stepped forward and said with his neck stiff, "Isn't it just about diverting water? We have been doing farm work for so many years, how could we not know how to do it? You just want to strangle us!"
Huang Mao, who was listening, couldn't help but ask, "How can you talk like that? Our president is kind enough to let you divert the water, and you don't even appreciate it?"
"Appreciate it?" The tall man sneered: "By the time you finish the plan, everyone in our village will be dying of thirst! We will definitely divert this water today!"
As he said this, he was about to lead his men towards the canal.
Zhao Wei stretched out his hand to stop him: "Stop! I didn't say you can't divert the water, but you have to follow the rules. I'll have someone get the tools and go with you to make sure the canal won't be damaged. Is that okay?"
The tall man wanted to say something, but an older man next to him pulled his arm and whispered, "Forget it, just let them follow. As long as they can lead to water, it's fine."
The tall man glared at Zhao Wei and said nothing more, which was considered as his agreement.
