A Lucky Wife Born Again From a Farm Family

Chapter 9: Out of water

Chapter 9 Out of water

Gu Damu Gu Dalin's family has many children. The two brothers gave birth to eight boys and six girls, as well as a frail and elderly mother. The whole family consumes a lot of water.

Gu Damu felt very sad when he thought of the children crying out for thirst but having no water to drink. But he is the head of the family, and the decisions he makes are related to the life of the family, so he has to be cautious.

Gu Damu's eldest son sat on the outside with the children of several families, blocking the sight of the surrounding victims and preventing them from seeing the adults discussing things. Seeing his father's hesitation, he couldn't help but said: "Dad, my son is not afraid of being tired. This work is our familys livelihood, we must do it.

When Gu Dalin's son heard his cousin's words, he followed up and said, "Uncle, Brother Qingliang is right. We are willing to do this work, and we are not afraid of being tired."

What are you afraid of if you are tired and miserable?

As long as there is water, all the hardships are worth it.

Seeing the children's support, Gu Dalin once again advised: "The children are willing to work and are not afraid of hardship. Brother, please don't hesitate and make a decision quickly. You guys don't have much time to wait for our family."

This is a matter for the five families. Third uncle said that a decision must be made quickly.

Gu Dalin added: "Brother, my mother hasn't drank water all day. If we can't find any water tonight, what will our mother drink tomorrow?"

Gu Damu has always been filial, but when he thought that his mother was so thirsty that she could not speak, he finally slapped his thigh and said, "Uncle Third, our family has done this work. Let's go dig water tonight."

When the third grandfather heard this, a smile appeared on his dark and serious face: "Okay, since everyone is willing to dig water, then the matter is settled. Let's meet at the mountain entrance in half an hour and go into the mountain to dig water together. "

After the matter was finalized, each family took action. The Tian family, Gu Damu, and Gu Dalin family took their children back to their resting place, had dinner, and packed up useful tools.

After the Tian and Gu families left, Gu Dashan and Mrs. Cui came to the resting place of the third grandmother's house. Both of them had injuries on their faces. Mrs. Cui had a clear slap mark with five fingers on her face. Gu Dashan's forehead was red and was covered with wounds. Something is swollen.

The third grandma was angry when she saw this: "The older Pan gets, the more vicious she becomes. Why doesn't God send down a thunderbolt to kill her?"

"Okay, we still have work to do, so hurry up and pack up and set off." Grandpa San whispered to Gu Dashan and Cui that Gu Jinli had found the underground waterway and that the other two people were going to dig water in the mountains overnight.

Gu Dashan and Cui's eyes widened when they heard this, and their hands trembled with joy: "Yes, there is a water source." It was his little fish who discovered it.

The third grandfather nodded: "Well, you two go and have dinner quickly. There will be heavy work tonight, so you are all full."

They had already eaten and left three portions, two for the couple and one for the Chu family.

Gu Jinxiu brought them their dinner, which was a stew of Sichuan vegetables, beans, leaves, and roots in wooden bowls.

The couple took it and ate it. It tasted very strange, but it was the only cooked meal they had eaten in the past few days. Ms. Cui ate it with tears.

By the time they finished their dinner, Third Grandpa, Luo's father, and Luo Wu had already packed their tools and tied them to their bodies.

Luo's father knew that Mrs. Gu was in charge of the iron tools and pots in the old Gu family. Gu Dashan had no usable tools, so he handed Gu Dashan a shovel and two water jugs: "Take them."

Gu Dashan took it gratefully: "Brother Luo..."

Luo's father smiled heartily: "Don't say anything else. You have followed the master to dig a well, and I will ask you to put in a lot of effort tonight."

The third grandma also distributed all the iron pots, water jugs, bamboo tubes, and ropes she had at home to several children and tied them to them: "Hang them all up, we will use them tonight."

Gu Jinli also carried his own straw mat on his back and said to Third Grandma: "Third Grandma, let's bring the straw mat with us."

"Yes, yes, yes, bring a straw mat. You have to take turns to rest when digging in the middle of the night, so you need a straw mat." The third grandma hurriedly brought her own straw mat. Seeing this, Luo Huiniang also carried her own straw mat.

Gu Jinli smiled, she brought the straw mat not only for resting, but also for other great uses.

After everyone **** their things, Third Grandpa looked at the completely dark sky and said, "Xiaoyu and the Luo family will leave first. We will wait half a quarter of an hour before setting off. We will all walk in the dark and gather at the mountain pass. We will light the fire after entering the mountain." Bundle."

Although their resting place is remote, there are many disaster victims around. Too much movement will attract attention, so they must leave in groups.

Luo's father nodded and took Luo Wu, Luo Huiniang and Gu Jinli to leave first. The night was dark, covering them.

Two quarters of an hour later, the five families met at the mountain entrance, lit torches with fire sticks, and walked toward the mountains together.

Gu Xiaoyu walked in front to guide everyone. After walking for almost half an hour, they finally arrived at the place where they had picked Sichuan vegetables.

Mr. Chu and Aunt Tian were not here. Father Luo worriedly shouted: "My mother, it's us, come out quickly."

Hearing Luo's father's voice, Mr. Chu and Aunt Tian emerged from the weeds: "We thought they were other victims of the disaster, so we hid for fear of danger."

Mr. Chu looked at the large group of people by the light of the torch and said with a smile: "Everyone is here." Even Gu Damu and Gu Dalin's mother came, which shows that everyone attaches great importance to the water source.

Third Grandma handed her the dinner she had brought and said, "Eat quickly."

Tian Erhua also handed over the dinner prepared for Aunt Tian.

Gu Jinli took everyone to the small pit dug earlier, poked the pit with a wooden stick, and brought out the muddy wet soil: "Third Grandpa, look."

Grandpa Third grabbed the wooden stick and looked at the muddy wet soil on it. He nodded excitedly: "There must be water underground here. Let's dig here."

Luo's father worked as a bodyguard. He was tall and powerful. He took Luo Wu and Wu to work together.

The third grandfather said from the side: "First dig a big hole three meters wide, and then dig deeper."

Wells are dug in the shape of a funnel, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, and then deepened.

The Luo family father and son were extremely powerful martial arts practitioners. They quickly dug a three-meter-wide pit and then followed the pit to reduce the area and continue digging deeper.

Girls and wives from several families were responsible for transporting the soil. They had nothing to pack, so they piled the excavated soil on the straw mats, and several children carried the straw mats to carry the soil away.

Other strong laborers who can dig the soil are resting nearby. I dont know how long they will dig tonight. They have to take turns, otherwise such heavy work will kill people.

The Luo family father and son were very powerful. In less than an hour, the father and son had dug a three-meter-deep mud pit.

Seeing that the two of them were pale from exhaustion, Third Grandpa hurriedly called them up to rest, woke up Gu Dashan and Uncle Tian, and asked them to go down to the pit.

Gu Dashan and Uncle Tian could not wait any longer. They tied ropes and went down to the pit to continue digging.

Gu Jinan and Uncle Tians eldest son followed down, put the excavated soil into a pot, and transported it out of the mud pit.

More than half an hour later, the mud pit was more than one meter deep. Gu Dashan and Uncle Tian collapsed from exhaustion and were lifted out of the pit.

Third Grandpa hurriedly asked: "Is the water out?"

Gu Dashan shook his head: "The bottom of the pit is muddy, and there is no water yet."

The third grandfather frowned and called to Gu Damu and brother Gu Dalin: "Go down and dig."

Hey. Brothers Gu Damu and Gu Dalin responded, tied a rope and got down into the mud pit.

After brother Gu Damu was too tired to dig anymore, the third grandfather and his cousins Gu Qingliang and Gu Qingtian went down to the pit to continue digging. When they couldn't dig anymore, they changed...

Family members took turns digging the soil, and they were busy for several hours without seeing any water.

Gu Jinli was waiting anxiously while helping to move the soil. It wasn't until she fell asleep from exhaustion that she was awakened by a burst of cheers: "The water is out, the water is out!"
