There were two huge buckets and a carrying pole in front of her. If she could put them in her spatial storage, she could carry a hundred buckets without any problem and earn a full set of work points.
Gu Chen had already picked up a bucket and carried it on his shoulder. He then deftly lifted Lin Yuxi's bucket.
"You wait here, I'll go fetch water, you can water it in a bit."
She's not someone who can't lift a finger or carry heavy loads. Since coming to Qinghe Village, the food has been incredibly delicious, and she's even gained five pounds. Why does this man always take over her chores?
She wasn't good at harvesting wheat, but carrying water was much simpler.
"It's okay, I can choose. If I can't make it, I'll ask you for help again."
"Okay, then come with me to fetch water."
Gu Chen was worried that the mountain road would be difficult to walk on. After all, carrying two such large buckets would be very strenuous. The loess slope was on the hillside, and the water had to be carried uphill. Obviously, his worries were unnecessary.
The well closest to the foot of the mountain was crowded with people, so they had to go to the second well.
A thick rope was tied to the handle of the wooden bucket. The bucket had to be tilted down to draw water up one bucket at a time and pour it into a larger bucket. Since the wooden bucket was small, it would take three or four draws to fill a larger bucket.
"I'll fill half a bucket for you, so you can take less." Gu Chen only filled half a bucket for her, while he filled two full buckets for himself.
He effortlessly carried the two buckets of water on a shoulder pole, and Lin Yuxi, not to be outdone, carried both buckets as well.
Is it heavy?
Lin Yuxi shook her head, "It's not heavy."
Everyone's land was allocated to different locations, and Lin's mother's land was quite far away from hers. At this moment, she didn't know if her mother had fetched water yet.
Gu Chen lifted the buckets. The two buckets were about the same weight, but because of his walking movements and the uneven terrain, some water spilled out.
"Gu Chen, wait a minute." Lin Yuxi put down the bucket, then went to the roadside to pick up a branch and placed it on the surface of his bucket. "Let's go, this way you won't spill too much water."
Gu Chen remained silent for a moment, realizing that he seemed to know less than Lin Yuxi.
Lin Yuxi looked at him silently, "Let's go? What are you standing there for?"
After saying that, she picked up half a bucket of water and walked forward. Watering felt like an easy job, and she felt she could finish two rows of land in half a day.
Front.
No one knows who spilled a large puddle of water, which wet the ground, made it muddy, and caused several people to slip and fall, getting completely soaked, and spilling all the water they had just collected.
Now several people's water-carrying efforts have been in vain.
"Zhao Xiaotong, didn't you eat? You can barely stand and you're wobbling. You spilled that bucket of water all over me." Zhang Shufang gritted her teeth, looking at herself covered in water, and couldn't help but complain.
Zhao Xiaotong is her nemesis; the two of them are simply born to clash.
Zhao Xiaotong's face was pale. She walked back to the village from the town yesterday. It was too late, and she didn't eat anything. She didn't even have a bite to eat when she got back to the village. All that was left were sweet potatoes. She had no appetite and was definitely feeling weak.
