Chapter 76 Helping Grandpa Water the Land (Please Vote and Collect)



When talking about sending Yunmian to school, Mei Cuiping thought of the household registration issue.

Without a household registration, children cannot go to school.

"Yongcheng, when you went to Director Xu's house to talk about settling Mianmian in, what did Director Xu say?"

Yun Yongcheng: "Director Xu has a relative who works at the Huangshi Town Police Station. The day after tomorrow, Monday, Director Xu will accompany us to the police station to register Mianmian. Director Xu said it shouldn't be a big problem."

"That's great! After this is done, I must thank Director Xu very much."

Now that Yunmian's settlement was in sight, Mei Cuiping felt relieved and happily served the prepared food on the table.

After lunch, Yun Mian and Yun Aiguo went to see the rice fields.

In the hot summer, the water in the rice fields is easy to dry up. It is necessary to irrigate the rice fields in time to avoid affecting the rice heading.

When they arrived at the field and saw the state of their rice fields, Yun Aiguo and his wife frowned in worry.

Yunmian followed her grandparents along the ridge of the field, and heard them sighing heavily from time to time.

"The water that was just filled the day before has dried up again today. If we don't have a heavy rain, the Xiushui River will dry up."

Mei Cuiping sighed and picked a yellowed rice leaf. She found some tiny insect holes on the leaf. Her brows frowned even deeper and she turned around and showed the leaf to her husband.

"Not only is it dry, but there are also insects."

Seeing the insect holes on the leaves, Yun Aiguo's brows furrowed even deeper.

"It's really frustrating to have insects at this critical juncture of ear emergence. Grandma, please go back and get the insecticide. I'll go to the river to fetch water for the fields."

Yun Aiguo gave some instructions and walked quickly towards Xiushui River, carrying two empty buckets.

"Mianmian, grandma is going to go get the insecticide and the sprayer now. You just wait here obediently for grandpa to come back."

Mei Cuiping pulled Yunmian under the shade of a tree and gave her some instructions.

Yunmian waved her little hand obediently to Mei Cuiping.

"Grandma, go ahead. I won't run around."

"You're so good. Grandma will make you some white flour buns tonight."

Mei Cuiping touched the pigtails on Yunmian's head before turning around and hurried away.

The rice fields were not far from the Xiushui River. Just after Mei Cuiping left for a while, Yun Aiguo came back panting, carrying two full buckets of water.

Yunmian stood in the shade of a tree and saw from afar her grandfather appear on the edge of the field with a hunched back and carrying two buckets of water.

Two buckets of water were poured into the ground, and not a single puddle appeared.

To irrigate this piece of land, at least ten buckets of water are needed. My grandma said that the other pieces of land are also dry. To irrigate all of them, at least dozens of buckets of water are needed.

It is tiring to carry one bucket of water under the scorching sun, let alone dozens of buckets of water.

Watching her grandfather pouring the water onto the ground without even a minute's rest, then turning around and striding away with two empty buckets, Yun Mian frowned with heartache.

I wonder if I can use the spiritual spring water to help grandpa irrigate the fields.

Yun Mian subconsciously wanted to help her grandfather, and the next second, the dry field in front of her gradually became moist, and a small puddle appeared in front of her.

Yun Mian opened her eyes wide, her eyes full of surprise.

The originally withered and listless rice became lively at a speed visible to the naked eye after being watered with the spiritual spring water.

Afraid that her grandfather would find out, Yun Mian didn't dare to take too much spiritual spring water at one time. Whenever her grandfather poured a bucket of water to the field, she would secretly use the spiritual spring water to water a small piece of land.

Mei Cuiping mixed the pesticide and returned to the field with the sprayer on her back. She found that the rice was much more vigorous and the field was basically wet.
