The midday sun was scorching the earth, and a heat wave rose from the ground. It was really too hot today. You should not work at high temperatures in such weather. If you are not careful, you may suffer from heatstroke.

But the work of digging a well should be done quickly rather than later. What should we do? Suddenly Shen Ping had an idea, yes!

He quickly called Mr. Xie and went to the river to chop some bamboo. When he came back, he split the bamboo into strips with a machete, put it on the ground, and woven the straw into it.

In less than an hour, the two of them had woven a four-meter-wide square straw shed, picked out a few thick bamboos, and stood around the well to support the straw shed.

Although it is simple, it is no problem to block the sun. This solves the problem of sun exposure and makes it much cooler.

Because their moods were different, Daniu and Sanniu worked harder in the afternoon. Since the second room entertained them with such good food and asked them to pack it in the evening, they were even more embarrassed to be lazy.

Besides, this well is not only a matter for the second room, it is also related to the Zhang family's face, so they cannot be underestimated.

At this time, Dachun and his wife also came back. From the happy expressions on their faces, Shen Ping knew that the business was good.

Behind them were two carriages pulling green bricks. When Dachun and the others went out in the morning, Shen Ping specifically told them to buy some green bricks for cementing wells.

Dachun then came over to help dig the well. With more people and more strength, they dug until evening and dug nearly five meters.

They continued digging the next day, but encountered a big problem when they reached the seventh meter. They found a brownstone slab, and everyone couldn't help but feel discouraged.

How to dig this stone? Not knowing how big the stone was, and not knowing whether there was soil underneath the stone, Da Niu and San Niu began to back off: "Dad, how can we dig this? You can tell at a glance that you can't dig it down!"

Zhang Tiezhu also frowned. He did not expect this, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Shen Ping.

"Keep digging!" Shen Ping said without any doubt: "After digging this layer, there is mud below. Keep digging, and there will be a layer of stone slabs below. If you dig out that layer again, there will be water.

I had gone to see a bride before, and I knew how many layers the earth's surface was divided into, and which layer there would be water on. There will definitely be some difficulty in relying entirely on manual labor.

"Listen to the second daughter-in-law, dig it!" Mother-in-law Li said firmly: "How can everything go smoothly when doing big things? There will definitely be some bumps and tumbles. Just persevere and get through it!"

"Okay! Just dig!" Sandaniu and Sanniu said through gritted teeth.

After the hard work of several people, this layer of large stone slabs was finally dug out. The yellow soil underneath was sticky and wet. Shen Ping collected this part of the clay, which will be used later. Cementing.

Everyone was overjoyed and dug vigorously. They continued to dig down two or three meters and encountered another layer of brown stone slabs. Finally, on the third day, this layer of brownstone was dug through.

After digging another two or three meters, Miharu was surprised to find that boiling water seeped out when he reached 15 meters, but the water flow was not very large.

Shen Ping knew that water had been dug. As long as he continued to dig another 20 centimeters, the water flow would be very large. He could not continue digging now and had to cement the well first.

He scooped up the seeping water again with a wooden bucket, soaked the yellow clay, poured in the lime and glutinous rice, and mixed them together until they were sticky and thick.

Then they built it around the well with green bricks. In order to speed up, several people didn't stop for a moment, and finally cemented the well in the evening of the third day.

After one night, I saw that the walls of the well were completely dry, so I dug another 20 centimeters into the middle of the well, and finally a large amount of water came out.

"There is water! The water is finally out!" Miharu climbed up from the rope ladder and shouted excitedly.

The well dug by the Zhang family’s second room is producing water! Suddenly the entire Kaoshan Village was in a sensation! Everyone rushed to tell each other!

The people who originally wanted to see their jokes were stunned at this time, how could it be possible!

In order to prove the truth, the village chief He Guang went to see it in person and couldn't help but be convinced that this Shen family was too powerful.

Not only is he courageous and courageous, but he can also convince Zhang Tiezhu that everyone can unite and achieve the same goal.

In just three days, 15 meters were dug. And there are several layers of hard brown boards in the middle.

He Guang couldn't help but feel his face heat up when he thought that he was the head of a village but there was no woman with a long-term vision.

There was no other environmental pollution in ancient times, and the water quality was extremely good. There was no need to worry about the water being undrinkable.

In order to accurately measure the depth of the well, Shen Ping deliberately marked every one meter. It didn't take half a day's work. The well water was almost ten meters deep. It didn't take half a day's work.

Shen Ping did not expect that the water output from this well would be so large.

Shen Ping paid the wages of Zhang Tiezhu and his son, giving them 50 Wen a day. In a little more than three days, Shen Ping calculated 500 Wen for them. The father and son were stunned.

They originally thought that they were all a family, and by helping out, they would be able to have enough to eat at most.

Unexpectedly, the second roommate not only provided for them three meals a day, but also calculated their wages and gave them 50 cents a day.

Shen Ping did not give the 500 coins to the three of them, but gave it directly to her mother-in-law, because Shen Ping knew that her mother-in-law was in charge of the old house.

This move made Mr. Li smile from ear to ear again.

Now it's better. With this well at home, we don't have to worry about water problems. It's enough for the Zhang family.

Shen Ping secretly added spiritual spring water to the well water. During this period, everyone drank the spiritual spring water and their bodies became stronger.

After working hard for these days, she could finally take a comfortable, open-minded bath. Shen Ping added spiritual spring water to it. Her pores were immediately clear, her marrow was cleansed and her bones were cleansed, and her whole body was energized.

Now there is no need to worry about the water problem. Shen Ping asked everyone to take a bath. They had not taken a good bath for such a long time and they all looked dirty.

Everyone laughed when they saw each one of them looking different after taking a shower.

Liuya and Qiaoqiao, the two little girls, took a bath and then put on the new pink clothes made by Xie, they looked as if they were made from pink.

With her round eyes, tall nose, and small cherry mouth, she is a perfect little beauty.

They have eaten better during this period, and their faces have become much rounder, and their complexions are much better, no longer sallow.

"Mom, these new clothes are so nice! Thank you, Mom!" Liuya carefully touched the new clothes and couldn't put them down. She was reluctant to wear these beautiful clothes.

But my mother said that if she didn’t wear it, she wouldn’t make new clothes for herself in the future, so she wore it.

Looking at this cute little person, Shen Ping couldn't help but curling up her lips and eyebrows.

And Mrs. Wu, she has been eating well these days and keeping up with her nutrition. Her face, which was originally thin and sallow, is now rosy and shiny.

The belly is obviously bigger. It makes sense that the mother will absorb the fetus better and grow faster if she eats it.

This night, Shen Ping slept particularly soundly.
