After marrying sick Yangzi, I made my whole family rich

Xu Mengxiao's eyebrows moved, and she saw Lu Li scooping up a large gourd of water and drinking it. He didn't bother to eat, so he dragged Lu Hai away who was about to go to the kitchen.

"Hey, Dad, sharpening your knife will keep you from chopping wood!" Lu Hai looked in the direction of the kitchen with a tearful look on his face. He didn't know what delicious food this girl had cooked. It tasted so good to him!

Xu Mengxiao watched with schadenfreude as he was dragged away, then remembered something and hurriedly chased him out the door.

"Dad, don't get heat stroke!"

The day was getting hotter and hotter. She didn't expect that summer in ancient times could be so hot.

Under the scorching sun, many plants and trees were wilting, and the land was cracked into pieces, and there were signs of drought.

If there was no underground river water, with the current weather, this year's crops might not be harvested at all.

But even if there is water, there are still some areas that cannot be irrigated due to the terrain.

After finishing the meal, Xu Mengxiao filled two large bowls of rice and piled on top of the vegetables. After putting them in a vegetable basket, she fetched a bucket of cold well water and put it into a water bag and bamboo tube.

Looking at the direction of Lu He's room, Xu Mengxiao got into the kitchen, took some heat-relieving Huoxiang Zhengqi water from the space and dripped it into the water, and added some nutrients to quickly replenish the nutrients and salt lost by the body.

Then she carried these things to the fields.

On the way, she met Uncle Xu, who looked not very good-looking.

This man had never looked at her seriously before, as if she were some dirty thing not worth looking at.

This time I saw him, but he took the initiative to say hello——

"Hey, isn't this Lu Da's good daughter-in-law?"

"Hey, isn't this Uncle Xu who begged my father for water after he was dominating a small pond?"

Uncle Xu suddenly turned gloomy, "I didn't realize you were so sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued. Sure enough, you are like a tortoise and a turtle!"

"I can't compare to you. You are a treacherous person and a slippery horse. You can argue and fight with a junior."

"You!" Uncle Xu looked at her with disgust, "Lu Dayou knows how to teach his daughter-in-law how to be a good little girl. She has become such a virtuous person now. I just wonder if this lucky and good daughter-in-law can help him solve the problem this time. Are you in trouble?"

Having said this, Uncle Xu felt instantly relaxed all over.

"How about finding a water source, how about being grateful to the village, but I can't even take care of my own land. Humph, I'm afraid the Lu family won't even be able to pay the land tax this year."

"Uncle Xu, please take care of yourself!" Xu Mengxiao glanced at the figure not far away and smiled meaningfully.

Before he could figure out what this stinky girl meant, a very delicate figure rushed towards him——

"Uncle, help me, someone deliberately framed me, you must seek justice for me!"

"What's wrong, Ruyi, what's wrong with you?" Uncle Xu felt a little distressed when he saw her crying so hard.

However, in the next moment, a deafening Hedong lion roar came over, "Xu Laosan, you are a murderer of thousands of swords, what are you doing if you haven't come back yet!"

Xu Ruyi gritted her teeth, "I don't know why Third Aunt is talking bad about me everywhere. You must persuade her that we are all a family. If I can marry into a good family in the future, I can also bring glory to the clan, but now... …”

At this time, Aunt Xu came after her aggressively with a kitchen knife. Xu Ruyi's face turned pale with shock and she ran away without any trace of her previous grace.

Before leaving, she saw Xu Mengxiao watching a show not far away, with a smile on his face that was so bright that his teeth were almost broken.

Then Aunt Xu grabbed Uncle Xu’s ear and put a knife on his neck, “Can you leave!?”

"Let's go!"

Xu Mengxiao was watching in amusement, but she was hit lightly on the back of the head. She turned around and hit the opponent's weak point hard with an elbow!

But at the critical moment, Xu Mengxiao found out who the other party was. Xu Mengxiao's heart tightened. She braked suddenly to stop the momentum, and then grabbed his arm.

"Ms. sir, why are you here?" He said sweetly, as if he was acting coquettishly, and the switch should not be too smooth.

Lu He had been glaring at her keen reaction a moment ago, but now he froze.

"Didn't you say you were going to deliver food?"

"Oh." Xu Mengxiao awkwardly pulled back her non-existent sideburns, then picked up the basket on the ground, "I'm going to deliver it now."

I was so absorbed in watching the show just now that I forgot what I was here for.

Lu He looked at her loosened hand. Just as his fingers were about to reach the position just now, he realized what he was doing and frowned slightly.

"Aren't you coming with us?" Xu Mengxiao blinked, not knowing what she thought of, and grabbed his arm again, "Let's go!"

Not far away, the village women, who were still chatting under the big tree with their faces glowing, saw the young couple walking hand in hand to the fields intimately.

After they were out of sight, Xu Mengxiao let go of Lu He, the tool man, and said seriously, "Okay, I'm doing it for your own good. Many people say that you are obsessed with Xu Ruyi. You definitely don't want to be rumored by them." Doesn’t it sound that bad?”

"Yes." Then he hugged her waist and felt her stiffen suddenly, and the corners of her mouth curled up secretly, "Someone is coming."

Xu Mengxiao didn't expect that he was quite capable of drawing inferences from one instance. Was he taking advantage of her?

Thinking about her face, it seemed that she was taking advantage of him. Xu Mengxiao felt relieved instantly. She only likes to take advantage and does not like to be taken advantage of.

When she got to the field, she saw that most of the rice fields in Yaoyu Village had been benefited by the underground river water. At this moment, the crops were immersed in shallow swamps, and the occasional few farmers shuttled among them. face smile.

On the other hand, Lu Lizheng and Lu Hai on the slope were so busy that they poured bucket after bucket of water from the aqueduct they dug into their fields. They were so tired that they could not straighten their backs.

"Dad, please eat your food first!"

Lu Hai instantly felt like he had seen a savior. After drinking Xu Mengxiao's cold well water with Huoxiang Zhengqi water and nutrients added, he felt so happy that he even looked at her.

Humph, this ugly girl would still be pretty good if she didn't covet her elder brother.

"What are you looking at? You have to pay for drinking my water. Here, two cents!"

"What? What are you talking about? You still want to charge money? Isn't this my well water?" Lu Hai was about to burst.

"Is it possible that I came here to deliver water to you for free under such a strong sun? Who are you to me? Why should I deliver water to you?" Xu Mengxiao was not used to him. If he had always been nice to him, he would really take it seriously. It's a matter of course.

"Otherwise, just call me sister-in-law."

"You have a beautiful idea!" Lu Hai, who was unwilling a second ago, immediately took out three pennies from his pocket, "The extra penny will be used as a beggar!"

Seeing that she accepted it without any concern, Lu Hai felt heartbroken.

His eldest brother was not feeling well these days, so he did not hunt much. The money he earned before was also used to pay back the clan members. Their family is still very poor now.

Damn it, why doesn’t this ugly girl toughen up?Don't you usually like to go against him?

Xu Mengxiao now became serious, "Dad, relying on manpower to carry water like this is not an option, and it's too late. Have you thought of other ways?"

"Hire some people to help." Lu He said.

Even the well-informed Lu He said this, and Xu Mengxiao knew that in this time and space there were no irrigation tools like waterwheels to divert water from low places to high places. No wonder they had to use this stupid method.
