Happy peasant girl

Chapter 163 The Compensation Tree (3)
"Grandpa, let my younger sister try it!" Qin Shi believed more and more that Linqingxi could successfully drill a well.

"That's right, Grandpa, anyway, the yard belongs to us, so we can dig it if we want!" Mrs. Wu never cared about cursing or anything like that.

"Father, let the child try!" Lin Zhongguo also stood on the side of Linqingxi this time. If he can really dig a well in his yard, then not only will the curse be broken, but the old yard can also go back.

Both Linyuan Mountain and Ye Shi were a little loose. Afterwards, the two discussed it all night, and agreed to let Linqingxi try it the next day.

With the support of her family, the next step for Linqingxi was to prepare the tools for digging the well, and for the convenience of soil transportation, she asked Lin Zhongguo to help make a potter's wheel frame.

There was movement in the yard of the old Lin's house in the west of the village, and soon everyone in the village knew about it, and when they heard that Lin Qingxi was planning to dig a well in the yard, the villagers became even more curious.

Only patriarch Lin Renyi and several elders attached great importance to it. After learning the news, they found Linyuan Mountain and Linqingxi.

If someone else wanted to dig a well, they might not take it seriously, but Linqingxi has a different experience and a different mission. Her every move may affect the future of the Lin clan.

"Xi girl, what's going on here?" In the courtyard in the west of the old Linjia Village, the patriarch Lin Renyi saw Linqingxi who was directing his servants to dig a well.

Lin Qingxi told Lin Renyi and the others what he had said to Linyuan Mountain, and then said that he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to dig out the water, but just tried.

"Girl Xi, the patriarch asked a few people from the village to help you dig. It's a little slow for you to dig like this!" Lin Qingxi said that there was no guarantee, but Lin Renyi believed that if she was not sure, she would not dig the well easily.

Most of Lin Qingxi's subordinates have gone to work in the field, only Bai Hua and Bai Yang plus Lin Qingmu to help her, there is indeed a shortage of manpower.Therefore, she agreed to Lin Renyi's proposal. There are more people and more strength, so that she can determine whether there is water below.

It didn't take long for young and middle-aged men from several villages to come to the old courtyard of the old Lin's family under the leadership of Linhu. Only after they came here did they know that the patriarch asked them to help Linqingxi dig a well.

"Xi girl, can water be dug out here?" Lin Hu and the others were a little suspicious.

"Uncle Lin Hu, I don't know either, just dig and find out!" Lin Qingxi said with a smile.

"How deep do we have to dig?" Lin Hu asked again.

"Why are you asking so many questions? Just do what girl Xi told you to do. Don't talk so much and work hard." Lin Renyi reprimanded Lin Hu.

"Understood, patriarch!" The patriarch's order is more effective than the emperor's imperial decree. Although Lin Hu and the others don't understand why Lin Renyi, the patriarch, values ​​Linqingxi, they just do it.

Before digging the well, Linqingxi asked Jasmine and Qiangwei to transplant all the mugworts to the stream garden, but there were quite a few bamboo trees left.

In order to have enough oxygen in the well, to accommodate two people, and to carry the baskets for carrying the soil, Linqingxi asked Linhu and the others to dig the well wider.

When the well was dug on the second day, more and more people from the village came to see the excitement. Most of them did not believe that Linqing River could dig out water. Back then, the ancestors dug ten feet deep but did not get any water. .

Mrs. Mu and Mrs. Ye came to deliver lunch to Lin Qingxi and the others, and the villagers began to chatter around them.

"Sister Huilan, your Xi girl is very capable at farming, but digging a well is no joke, don't let the child waste effort!"

"That's right, our village's ancestors have grown up eating the water in the Shanmei River. How can there be any water in the ground!"

"Grandma Ye, can girl Qingxi really dig out water? Why does she think that water can be dug out here in your yard?"

"Xi girl is a little capable person, maybe she can really dig out this water, hahaha!"

"She can survive as a child! Don't forget, the yard of her house is ominous, and there is water in the ground, that's a hell!"

"What are you talking about, children just love to play! I don't know what Linhu and the others are doing to join in the fun, they are all fooling around with one child."

"I can't blame Linhu for this. The patriarch asked them to help. Could it be that the ancestors of our Lin clan showed their spirits and entrusted a dream to girl Xi, haha!"

"Hehe, why didn't the old ancestor entrust me with a dream, and tell me more about where there are gold and silver treasures, hehe!"

"I dreamed of sweet dreams in broad daylight, and if my ancestors didn't scold you, you would burn incense!"

Regardless of how the surrounding villagers made fun of them, both Ye and Mu just smiled. The well water hadn't been dug out yet, so people would say sarcastic things if they liked. It is right for them to support what they do.

Linqingxi didn't take it seriously. Now that the depth of the well has reached about three feet, she is fully focused on the newly dug soil.The soil was very damp to the touch, and there was a lot of water, which showed that her judgment was correct, and there must be a source of water below.

Suddenly, Bai Hua and Bai Yang tugged the rope on the windlass at the bottom of the well, and then shouted loudly: "Girl, I see water!"

"What? Say it again!" Lin Qingxi thought she had heard it wrong.

This time, Bai Hua and Bai Yang shouted with internal force at the same time: "Girl, I saw the water!"

Those present and not present were shocked by the huge shout, did you see the water?I see water!The uncontrollable ecstasy in everyone's heart was like the water that was about to gush out of the ground, and it couldn't be stopped.

"The water is out, is it really out?" Lin Renyi hurriedly ran into the yard.

"Grandfather, patriarch, it's really time to get out of the water!" Lin Qingxi said happily.

"Great, great! Girl Xi, you are really the lucky star of our Lin clan, lucky star!" Lin Renyi said excitedly.

At this time, the villagers had long forgotten what they had just said, and all stretched their necks to look into the well.It was because they underestimated the little girl Lin Qingxi, maybe the ancestors of the Lin clan really gave her a dream.

"Patriarch, whose family does this well belong to?" An inappropriate voice came out from the joyful crowd, and the owner of the voice was Lin Wangcai.

"Of course this well belongs to my family, but I believe that my grandpa, grandma, father and mother, and brothers and sisters-in-law don't mind letting the whole village drink water from this well." Linqingxi heard Linwang Cai's voice, which was obviously about to make trouble, spoke before everyone else spoke.

"Xi girl, how can this well belong to your family? Everyone in the village has a share." Lin Wangcai said with squinted eyes, he was doing this for the benefit of the whole village.

But the people in the village didn't accept his kindness. Although they also meant to ridicule Linqingxi's nonsense just now, now that there is water underground, they admire Linqingxi even more, and they all know that the old man Lin's family is not that selfish person, and the water in this well will not be used to prevent the villagers from drinking it.
