“Hmm, every time I wash his clothes, I see that his pants are wet with urine. What do you think is going on? He’s four years old. I can’t let him wear open-crotch pants, can I?” Li Yali looked worried. She had always treated Hongwei as her own son.
"It's not impossible, you can just wear trousers over it."
Li Yali thought for a moment, then shook her head. "I still don't think it's a good idea. Kids these days mature early, and if his classmates and teachers see him at school, they'll definitely think he can't take care of himself, and they might even laugh at him."
“That’s true,” Wang Tianxiao thought about it and agreed. Then he suddenly thought of a question, “When did he start wetting his pants?”
"When? I need to think about that."
Li Yali's hand froze in mid-air. She tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "You know what, it seems like I discovered it just over a month after starting school."
"I see. So, something must have happened at school." Wang Tianxiao pondered for a moment. "Could it be that the school didn't give the children enough time to use the restroom?"
"It shouldn't be," Li Yali shook her head. "Look at Fangwa, she wouldn't be like that, would she?"
"Yes, that makes sense."
The two fell silent, the only sound being the mechanical rustling of the dishes.
Hongwei and Wang Fang both attended the town's nursery, which was the precursor to the kindergartens of later generations.
Since Wang Fang is fine, then it must be due to Hongwei himself.
But this child seems fine at home, so why is he so unwell at school? Is he shy and afraid to go, or is there another reason?
"I'll ask Fangwa later to see what's going on at the school. If that doesn't work, I'll go to the school myself. If the child keeps wetting her pants and it's not her fault, then the school is at fault. If the school isn't at fault, then it's a health issue for the child, and we can't delay."
"That's what I mean. I thought it was a coincidence before, but now it seems it wasn't at all. I had been forgetting to tell you this until I just remembered it."
"Well, thank you for taking care of so many children all by yourself... By the way, why don't we buy a washing machine?"
"washing machine?"
"Yes, we have so many clothes at home now, it must be so hard for you to wash them by hand all the time. Oh, you know, I never even thought of that."
"That thing, can it really clean clothes? I've heard people say that although it's convenient, it's practically useless after washing."
"Don't listen to what people say, it washes perfectly clean. At most, you just need to scrub the kids' sleeves separately. It was fine when there were fewer people, but now with so many, it's really too much work. Anyway, I'll go to the city today and buy the latest, best-performing washing machine."
"That must use a lot of water, right? I saw one in town, such a huge thing, how much water does it take? And we don't even have easy access to water right now, do we?"
"It's okay, the water below will rise soon, and we're keeping it warm now."
Wang Tianxiao was not very satisfied with the progress of the water intake project.
After finally managing to get the water out, these people failed to fully realize the possibility that winter temperatures could drop so low that the entire pipe would freeze solid.
They wondered how such a thick pipe, constantly in a state of flow, could freeze.
He was severely reprimanded by Wang Tianxiao.
The water supply in the city is completely different from that in the mountains.
Because there are many users in the city, the water supply can generally be kept flowing continuously, and the water temperature is relatively not that low.
Even so, Qingcheng's urban water supply pipelines have basic insulation measures, rather than simply being built by throwing a few stainless steel pipes up.
If things continue like this, once the water supply is restored, the blockage will be so severe that even your parents won't recognize you.
What an unprofessional bunch.
The fact that they couldn't find a well to draw water for half a day shows that many of these people are just armchair strategists, too bound by their original construction experience, and unable to adapt to local conditions.
Wang Tianxiao devoted a great deal of effort to the entire process.
He put in more effort than anywhere else.
I'm worried that if we finally manage to get it up there, but then the water can't be delivered, that would be terrible.
The cost of renovation is a minor issue; the real problem is that he hasn't been able to get water for a long time.
Fortunately, after many bumps and stumbles, we finally made it to the end.
In a few more days, all the pipes will be insulated, and then water can be officially supplied. The station will be much more convenient then.
Even at this stage, he still dared not relax his requirements, for fear of losing all his previous efforts.
In those days, there was hardly any quality control over construction projects; who knew what other tricks they might pull?
The two of them were busy for a while, and then everyone else got up and started doing their own thing, and the station became lively again.
Once the sun came out and began to shine on the field, Wang Tianxiao started moving vegetables outside. Wu Wenhua and Mi Xiaohong saw this and hurriedly came over to help.
After all the washed vegetables were taken out, Mi Xiaohong went in to help Li Yali wash the vegetables, pushing Wang Tianxiao, a big man, out of the way.
Wang Tianxiao then ran to the deer shed to help Liu Yuan clean it.
The morning passed by leisurely.
Wang Tianxiao stood on the cliff, looking at the medicinal herb fields covering the mountain. He wondered if burying the herbs in the soil was the right way. He thought that he hadn't visited Mi Qingsong for a while, so he would pay him a visit in the afternoon and, if possible, invite him to come and take another look at the site.
The planting last year was different from this year's.
Artemisia capillaris and dandelion are both cultivated in a rough and ready manner. He never intended to cultivate them professionally, meticulously, or with great care from the beginning.
