After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 227 Private life under the well【2】

The old well in the west of the village has been dug for decades. When they settled down, the victims went down to clean the old well. They did see that the green bricks on the walls of many wells collapsed, exposing small pits filled with sand.

Over time, these small pits will expand and become connected, and there is a real risk of the old wells collapsing.

Grandpa Qin asked: "If it needs to be repaired, how long will it take? How much will it cost?"

Cao Siwen smiled and said: "It's just repairing the well wall. The work is relatively simple. It only takes eight days to complete the work. Thirty taels of silver will be covered by your family... repairing the well wall, clearing the mud, and removing insects."

Then he emphasized: "Mr. Qin, I am not deliberately taking jobs to make money. I really see that the old well is very good and I don't want it to collapse."

Grandpa Qin said with a smile: "You are recommended by the county captain, so the old man can naturally trust you. But repairing the well is a big deal, and the old well in the west of the village is used by several families. The old man has to go home and talk to several families. "

Cao Siwen nodded repeatedly: "This is natural."

……

At dinner, Grandpa Qin told his family about this and said: "They have been here for more than half a month and are very honest. They might as well take the opportunity to repair the old well... Dalang, Xiaomi, do you have any opinions?" ?”

He added: "Although we must be cautious, we cannot treat everyone as evil thieves, otherwise how can we live our lives?"

Qin Xiaomi said: "Grandpa is right, but before repairing the well wall, our family had better go down to the well and take a look."

"Go down the well to take a look? It's too dangerous. It's twenty meters deep. What if there is an emergency?" Grandma Qin was very worried and said: "When we first settled down, the victims took turns going down the well to clean up the rotten leaves. The rope of Huang Lao Er and his son was broken. Fortunately they can swim, there are still many victims on the wall of the well, otherwise they would have been found in the well."

Grandpa Qin also said: "When I was cleaning the dead leaves in the well, I had already gone down to look at it. There was nothing special about the old well. There is no need to risk going down to look at it this time. Otherwise, wouldn't the thirty taels of silver have been wasted? "

Then he said, "That's it. We'll pay Cao Siwen and his friends to build the well. Our family can't go down there anymore, and you're not allowed to let Dalang go down the well to look. It's too dangerous."

The last half of the sentence was said while looking at Qin Xiaomi.

Qin Xiaomi died unjustly and said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, I won't interfere in the matter of well repair."

After hearing this, Grandpa Qin felt relieved and said with a smile, "Let's eat."

But there was an old case of massacre in this ghost village, and Jiang Dalang had been the emperor and was seriously ill with suspicion. He didn't trust anyone except Qin Xiaomi, so he had better go down to the well to investigate.

……

So the next day, Jiang Dalang found a time to find Huang Yanglong who was working hard again, and asked him to borrow someone: "All it takes is Huang Laowu and a few people."

Huang Yanglong readily borrowed it, and asked excitedly: "Why are you borrowing it? Are you going to break into some yard again? I am going too, take me, take me!"

Jiang Dalang was afraid that his noise would spread the news about going down to the mine to investigate and let Cao Siwen and the others know about it. He darkened his face and said, "No. Master Huang, don't make random guesses, and don't tell anyone. Just lend me Uncle Huang Wu and the others for one night." If you want to go along, that’s fine, but you have to keep it a secret.”

His expressionless face and slightly cold tone made Huang Yanglong feel as if he was being strangled by the neck. He immediately stopped talking nonsense and nodded: "Okay."

After hearing this, Jiang Dalang calmed down and said with a smile, "Thank you, Master Huang."

When he smiled, his overwhelming aura disappeared, and Huang Yanglong could finally speak freely: "If you can be so stubborn in front of the daughter of the Qin family, I will be relieved."

Jiang Dalang said: "Xiaomi is my fiancée, the person I want to spend the rest of my life with. I should treat her well. Why should I be tough on her?"

In his previous life, he was too stubborn and unwilling to bow his head and show weakness. In the end, the misunderstanding became deeper and deeper, and he ended up like that.

Huang Yanglong persisted and taught him: "As a man, you cannot be weak, you must be strong to the end, otherwise where will your husband be?"

Husband? That's a disgusting thing that ruins a couple's relationship.

In a previous life, Susu said so. "Then I wish Mr. Huang's husband Gang will be prosperous forever." After Jiang Dalang finished speaking, he left.

Huang Yanglong was stunned, and after a while, he asked Xiaobai: "The words are good, but why do I listen to what he said does not sound like good words?"

noob:"……"

It really didn't sound like a nice thing to say, but he didn't say it.

In the evening of that day, Cao Siwen and the others finished their work and returned to the town, but Huang Yanglong and the others did not go back, but stayed.

Grandma Qin was very considerate and cooked a table of delicious dishes and sent them to the workshop for Jiang Dalang to eat with Huang Yanglong and the others.

During the meal, Jiang Dalang told Huang Laowu that he was going to investigate underground, and asked Huang Laowu: "Uncle Huang Laowu, can you do this?"

Huang Laowu smiled and said, "I can do it."

Huang Yanglong was very proud. He crossed his legs and said while eating: "Uncle Huang Wu and his friends went into the sea to look for pearls. They are very good at swimming. They just went down a well and are not worth mentioning."

He asked again, "Do you think there will be a big snake in the well? There is a legend in my hometown that there is a big snake in the old well. When there is a thunderstorm, it will fly to the sky. After being struck by lightning, it will turn into a dragon and turn into a dragon."

Jiang Dalang was speechless and said: "Master Huang, that old well is a living well. People draw water every day. They also sprinkle insecticide and snake medicine. There will be no snakes. You can rest assured."

Huang Yanglong was quite disappointed.

After dark, Huang Yanglong urged Jiang Dalang again: "Hurry down the well!" This young master couldn't wait any longer.

Jiang Dalang did not agree and said: "Wait a little longer."

It was until late at night that Jiang Dalang lit a torch and took Huang Yanglong and others to the old well at the west entrance of the village.

However, this matter was not hidden from Grandpa Qin, so Grandpa Qin got up and followed.

But he couldn't help but complain: "You kid, didn't you tell me that you don't have to risk going down the well to check? Why are you still going?"

Huang Yanglong said: "Mr. Qin, I have people at home anyway, so it's okay to go down and take a look."

Jiang Dalang also said something to reassure Grandpa Qin, and Grandpa Qin was no longer angry.

Jiang Dalang reminded Grandpa Qin again: "Grandpa Qin, it's best for only a few of us to know about this matter. Don't tell it, otherwise Cao Siwen and others will feel uncomfortable after hearing about it."

"What Dalang reminds us is that it's really not good for them to know about this." Grandpa Qin agreed with his words, looked at Jiang Dalang again, and said happily: "Our big wolf has really grown up, and we have become more and more calm in our work."

Jiang Dalang smiled and took the opportunity to show his loyalty and win over Grandpa Qin: "I am almost sixteen. I will get married to Xiaomi in a few years. If I want to protect my wife and children, I will naturally have to make progress."

These words made Grandpa Qin even more happy. He wished that Jiang Dalang and Qin Xiaomi could get married now in a few years.

After arriving at the old well at the west entrance of the village, Huang Laowu and the others tied up long ropes, held up torches, and prepared to go down into the well.

Grandpa Qin saw that Jiang Dalang had also tied a rope and looked like he was going down to the well to investigate. He became anxious and said, "Dalang, it's dangerous down there. You're still young, so you can't go... I'll go."

As the master, it would not be good to just let Huang Laowu and the others take risks in the well.

Jiang Dalang was a little moved. Grandpa Qin would rather take the risk himself than let him go.

After a while, Jiang Dalang smiled and said: "Grandpa Qin, you have always taught me many skills. If I don't go down and use them myself, wouldn't it be in vain?"
