Chapter 275 Something Happened by the Pond
a loss.Fang Jinshu's gaze, which had already seen through everything, made him feel a bit embarrassed.This woman is so amazing, she can see through everything. Is she a mastermindEven if I haven't pr...She just wouldn't be embarrassed to bother Jinshu anymore, no matter what she found. From now on, they would have to face whatever came next on their own as a couple.
So Wang Yannei pretended not to notice Fang Jinshui's gaze on her.
Fang Jinshi seeing this could only sigh, she still hadn't let go of Yan'er sister and Zong Hu elder brother's matter in her heart.
Grandfather Zong would absolutely not use that money to hire a doctor for Big Brother Zong. If there wasn't a big disturbance in town, perhaps he could still spend a little money on Big Brother Zong.
Now the whole town is in chaos. You can't find a single doctor, let alone one willing to spend money on this. Elder Zong certainly won't be shelling out any yuan.
These days, the old house has been unusually quiet for so long. Fang Jinshi always felt that Zong Hu's injury would eventually lead Wu Lao to find them.
Just as Fang Jinshu was lost in thought, someone suddenly shouted.
Here it comes! The water's coming!
All eyes were suddenly fixed on the water channel running from top to bottom.
To ensure that no water was wasted or leaked, everyone worked very hard when digging the irrigation ditch. The ditch was dug half a meter deep, guaranteeing that not a single drop of water would spill out.
The gushing spring water flowed rapidly over the dry land, seemingly giving new life to the plants wherever it went.
The flowing spring water was indeed somewhat murky. Even though the villagers had dug irrigation ditches that were half a meter deep, the mud at the bottom was still dry.
After being cleansed by the spring water, all the dust was washed away. The grayish water flowed straight into the pool.
Those who were thirsty couldn't bear it and went straight to drink the mud water, which was clearer than the water people in the village are drinking now.
Children don't understand how to hide their emotions, so after drinking such dirty water, they are happily excited like it's New Year's.
Fang Jinxiu's heart ached at the sight.
Perhaps the villagers were ignorant and not very kind to her family.
But the child is innocent.
Fang Jinshu's mind briefly formed an idea, but since she couldn't do it right now, she just thought about it and didn't take it to heart.
Zongyu dug open the sluice gate on the mountain and waited for a while, until the water flow wasn't so rapid before heading back.
As soon as the pond was full, villagers couldn't wait to start drawing water home in buckets.
Among them, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Liu were the most domineering and tyrannical. When the women in the village gathered to draw water, the two of them almost pushed others into the pond because they were fighting over the water.
"You little wretch, you dare to steal from me! This is a pond dug by my son, this entire pond belongs to our clan!"
"We were kind enough to let you have a share of the pie, but you don't even have the eyesight to see that!"
"I'll see who dares to steal water from me again! If anyone tries, I'll have my son fence off the pond and won't let you come near it!"
Grandmother Wu's words indeed shocked quite a few women. This pond was indeed dug by Zong Yu.
And Village Head Wang had also said long ago that after the pond was dug, it would be located in front of Zong Yu's house, and his family would have the priority right to use the water.
Many people were unwilling and afraid to show it, they could only step back and make way for Old Madam Wu and Mrs. Liu.
They exchanged a glance, their faces beaming with triumph.
Not only did he scoop water from the bucket, but he also took off his shoes and socks and put his feet in to wash them.
"Oh my goodness, this feels so good! This water is so refreshing!"
Wu also hurried down to wash, while washing she glared at the person standing above her, "You're only worthy of drinking the footwashing water from our house."
"At least, it would be nice if we could give them some water to drink."
"To tell you the truth, our nephew is just too kindhearted. All this water was given to the villagers for free."
They should be charging them.
When Old Wu heard about the money, she immediately perked up and thought her eldest daughter-in-law had a brilliant idea.
"Yes, one bucket of water costs two copper coins. You have to pay to get the water."
A woman in the village finally couldn't stand it anymore, "You two, stop being so unreasonable!"
"This water doesn't belong to the Zong family, and the irrigation canal was dug by everyone in the village. Why should your family charge us!"
"That's right, that's too much!"
On this side of the pool, a commotion was gradually brewing. Fang Jinshi stood at her doorstep and glanced over in that direction.
Chang He rushed over, “It’s terrible, Jinshiu sister-in-law, something happened at the pond.”the token, had her escorted out without a word of explanation.Fang Jinshu stood there holding the waist token and pondered for a while. The prince wanted the medicinal herbs in her hands, but didn't w...
