Chapter 54: Digging a Well
At this moment, Wang Aijuan felt particularly wronged. Her legs were still hurting from the beatings she had just received.
Seeing Xiao Dashan still looking at her with disbelief, Wang Aijuan was so angry that she almost fainted. "I'm telling the truth. How about I lift up my pants and show you, Captain—"
“That’s enough!”
Xiao Dashan interrupted Wang Aijuan sternly, "Don't tell me such useless things. You said someone beat you up, but where is that person? When I came here just now, there was no one outside!"
Wang Aijuan was stunned by the question. How could she know who hit her? That person must have run away long ago! Although she thought so in her heart, Wang Aijuan said firmly, "It must be Su Ruanruan who hit her. She deliberately took revenge on me!"
Xiao Dashan looked at Wang Aijuan coldly, "You said she took revenge on you, why did she take revenge on you?"
Why?!
Of course it was because she wrote the report letter! But Wang Aijuan didn't dare to say it out loud!
Xiao Dashan was angry about this matter. If she kept bringing it up, wouldn't she be making herself uncomfortable? Seeing Wang Aijuan stopped talking, Xiao Dashan put his hands behind his back and said, "Clean up the pig manure in the yard! And push all the pig manure in the pigpen into the manure pit, otherwise all your work points for today will be deducted!"
After saying that, Xiao Dashan no longer looked at Wang Aiju, turned around and walked away.
After Xiao Dashan left, Wang Aijuan looked at the pig manure scattered all over the yard and decided to go out first.
Even if she needs to clean, she has to go home first to wash her shoes and then change into a new pair of shoes. Wearing these straw sandals, it is easy for pig manure to stick to her toes if she is not careful, which is really disgusting.
——
Su Runrun didn't know what Wang Aijuan was thinking at the moment, and she didn't have the leisure to pay attention to Wang Aijuan.
At this moment, Su Ruanruan was thinking about another thing.
It has not rained since the beginning of summer this year. As the team leader, Xiao Dashan organizes team members to fetch water for irrigation every day, and he is also looking forward to it raining soon.
Not only Xiao Dashan was looking forward to it, but the Third Production Brigade and even the entire Hongqi Commune were looking forward to it raining soon.
But only Su Ruanruan knew that from now until the autumn harvest, not only would it not rain, but the weather would become increasingly hotter. It was precisely because of this that this year's harvest was very poor.
The direct consequence of a poor harvest is that the amount of food each household can get will be reduced, and if there is less food, they will go hungry.
If she could start over again in this life, Su Runrun didn't want everyone to be like in the previous life, starving for the whole year, but she really couldn't think of any solution for the time being.
Carrying water every day can solve some problems, but it won’t improve things much.
There are few people and a lot of land, and the weather is too hot. The water that is poured into the fields every day is dried up by the next day.
It would be nice if the team had a few wells.
If there are more wells in the field, irrigation will be easier and more convenient, and efficiency can be greatly improved.
Su Runrun believed that not only she had such an idea, but Xiao Dashan must have had the same idea.
However, the number of people in the county's well-drilling team is limited, while there are countless teams that need to dig wells. If they really have to wait like this, they can only dig a well until the beginning of spring next year, just like in the previous life.
Perhaps, she could think of a way to get their team to dig a well first.
In this way, this year's harvest may be better.
Su Runrun worked so hard not only for the Third Production Brigade, but also for her and Grandma Chen.
After all, if the harvest is good, they will get more food.
Otherwise, the production team would have no food, and even if she earned full work points every day, there wouldn't be that much food to share with her!
