Chapter 71 The Water-Breaking Gugu
This unexpected ending made Ding Xiaodie stunned. Wow, it seems that all species in the world like to hear nice words, even the system is the same.
You should have said it earlier!!
She shrugged and quickly hid the cuckoo machine under the bed when she heard footsteps coming up the stairs.
When he looked up, he found it was his father Ding Gui.
"Xiao Die, Uncle Jiu, the housekeeper Lu, came to inform us that he hopes everyone can come up with ideas to see if we can find a water source."
"Water source? How can it be that easy to find? Even a large lotus pond can dry up like that, let alone..."
Ding Gui saw his daughter bending down and crawling halfway under the bed while talking, and took out a strange aluminum alloy machine from it.
"What is this?" He was surprised and quickly turned around and closed the door.
"Cuckoo machine, I don't know what I can do."
Ding Xiaodie frowned slightly: "Give it a try."
You can't just do research, you have to try it out to understand what it's all about.
Ding Gui knew that this was the space given to her, so she looked at it expectantly. She saw her daughter put the cuckoo machine on the floor, tried it to make sure it would not fall, and then she gently turned it by holding the handle.
"Coo! Coo!"
Suddenly there was a strange sound, like the sound of frogs talking in a deep well.
What does it mean?
After calling "coo coo", there was no movement.
Just as the father and daughter looked at each other in confusion...
"Gugu!"
Suddenly, a stream of clear water gushed out from the pipe of the cuckoo machine.
Oh my god, water, this is a cuckoo machine that can spit out water.
Now Ding Xiaodie finally understood why it was called a cuckoo machine, because this was the sound it made when water flowed.
After the father and daughter understood what was happening, they quickly reached out to get the water and poured it into their mouths. It was such a waste, as they didn't have any basins or pots around them.
Just as Ding Gui was about to open the door and run downstairs to get the basin, the water from the water dispenser stopped. Seeing that the entire floor of the room was almost soaked, Ding Gui stamped his feet and said, "Oh my God, there was no warning beforehand."
Ding Xiaodie was even more dumbfounded. It seemed that she would have to speak more next time. Not only would she have to say good things to that broken system, but she would also have to ask about the function of the machine.
But then again, can this cuckoo machine spit out water an infinite number of times, or only once? It's like a disposable product.
Just when the father and daughter were considering whether to try again, they heard Wang Dafeng's footsteps and Ding Xiaodie hurriedly hid the cuckoo machine under the bed.
Wang Dafeng has never let go of the dog-beating stick since the day she fled from famine, so her footsteps are particularly special. Others make two footsteps, but she makes three.
At this moment, Wang Dafeng wanted to go upstairs to rest and take a nap, but when she reached the last step, she couldn't help but squint her triangular eyes when she looked at the house next door.
What is that?
She hurried over to take a closer look and saw that there was a watermark in the corner of the door.
Water? How could it be possible? Ever since the drought began, every drop of water has been as precious as oil to humans. Who would be willing to pour water on the ground?
Could it be that the three of them are hiding something from me?
Wang Dafeng suddenly became suspicious. She walked over quietly and suddenly pushed the door open: "You two..."
Ding Xiaodie was leaning against the window, watching the people downstairs, while Ding Gui was about to hit her with a stick in his hand. Seeing Wang Dafeng pushing the door, Ding Gui hurriedly said, "Mom, look at that damned girl Xiaodie. She's peed all over the floor. Go and rest for now. I have to teach her a lesson today."
"Die-Chi peed?"
Wang Dafeng looked at the area of the floor and thought, are you kidding me? Such a large area of the floor is wet!
Not to mention Ding Xiaodie, a tiny kid, even eight or ten adults couldn't do it.
Wang Dafeng was confused: "Xiaodie, is it really you?"
Ding Xiaodie's face was full of pain, and her facial features were all twisted together. Her father's excuse was too unbelievable, but the old woman appeared suddenly, and he couldn't think of a good solution for a while.
Now when he heard the question, he could only answer with a "hmm" without turning his head.
"How is that possible, third brother? Tell me the truth. What happened? If you don't explain it to me clearly today, I will call the village chief to judge the matter. She is just a little kid, how could you not know what's going on?" Wang Dafeng was not so easily fooled. In order to find out the truth, she decided to take the fight today.
This is really hard for Ding Gui. What can he say?
However, it was difficult to make up an excuse, but he suddenly thought of a way. Of the thirty-six strategies, retreat is the best, so he immediately said, "Oh, I forgot that Uncle Jiu came to inform me. I have to go find the village chief."
After saying that, he turned around and ran away!
"Hey, you..." Wang Dafeng watched his son run away like that, and stomped on the dog-beating stick in silence.
Ding Xiaodie was completely speechless!
My dear father, he didn't care about her feelings at all. When the disaster came, they all used this trick.
Thinking about it, but also rationally knowing how stupid her excuse was, Ding Xiaodie had no choice but to slowly turn around and look at the old woman and chuckle: "Grandma, to be honest with you, the water on the ground was not my urine, nor was it caused by my father."
"Who did that?" Wang Dafeng widened his eyes and said, "Let me see what you say."
“I don’t know!”
Ding Xiaodie spread her hands and said, "Because we didn't know what was going on and we were worried about you making a fuss, we came up with this idea in a hurry. Actually, my father and I both think this matter is very strange.
We were a little scared of you when we saw you. After all, water is so precious these days, right? "
Wang Dafeng decided not to listen to her nonsense anymore and stretched out her hand: "Give me your gourd so I can take care of it."
This is to check how much water she has left!
In fact, ever since Wang Dafeng started secretly checking the gourd bottles of their family of three, they have been very cautious and sometimes they dare not add too much water to them.
It was precisely because of this good habit that he did not reveal his true identity in front of Wang Dafeng. She thought about it for a while and returned the gourd to her with trust.
He frowned in confusion and said, "That's strange. If all the water in your gourd bottles is there, then what's on the ground?"
"Could it be that the roof is leaking?" Ding Xiaodie pointed at the roof with a look of grievance. "Grandma, you saw that my dad ran away because he lied. We really don't know what happened."
"roof?"
Wang Dafeng looked up at the roof. There were indeed a few holes in it due to years of disrepair, but it wasn't raining, so why was it leaking?
She looked at Ding Xiaodie again and felt that the child did not seem to be lying. If she continued asking, she would probably be driven to tears.
But she was confused and puzzled, muttering: "Could it be..."
"Could it be something?" Ding Xiaodie responded cleverly. She found that she seemed to have confused the old woman.
Wang Dafeng hesitated to speak: "Forget it, it's okay, it's grandma who wronged you, go out and play!"
