Chapter 547 Sudden Drought (13)

This year's climate is relatively dry

It has only rained twice since spring,

The hot weather for half a month has caused the land on the mountain to dry up and crack.

In order not to affect the fruit harvest, the villagers have been busy watering the fruit trees in the orchard these two days.

Hearing the villagers talking about this, Zhang's mother also became worried, so she told her son:

"Xiaofeng, I heard that the fruit trees in the orchard are short of water. Go and see if there is water in the pond? If there is, water the fruit trees!!"

"Understood Mom!! Don't worry, I'll take care of the watering!!" In fact, Zhang Feng was going to bring a bucket into the mountain to water the fruit trees without his mother's orders.

The orchard of Zhang Feng's family is on the mountainside of Yangjia Mountain. The peach, plum and other fruit trees planted in [-] are about [-] acres. Now, the fruit trees on the mountain have gradually aged, and it is estimated that they will all be gone in two years. death, so Zhang Feng plans to change to other fruits this winter, such as cherries or something! !
Cherry trees have been planted on the flat ground at the foot of the mountain. Zhang Feng looked at them and saw that they had grown green leaves. After being cultivated with auxin, they have grown to a height of about 1.5 meters.

"Xiaofeng is here?" Seeing Zhang Feng coming to the orchard, the second uncle shouted loudly.

The fields of the two families are next to each other, and the loudest voices can be heard. At this time, the second uncle, the second aunt, and Zhang Yi are all busy in the orchard, carrying water to water the fruit trees.

"Hey! Uncle and Aunt, are you watering?" Zhang Feng smiled, and walked towards the large pool in the orchard with a bucket.

In the orchards in the village, there is a pool every 200 meters. Unfortunately, the project funds have been exploited layer by layer, so these pools are completely tofu projects, and they cracked after only two years of use.

Everything is still usable now, but the second uncle paid for the materials and repaired it, so that it can barely be used, otherwise the pool will not be able to be counted on at all.

"Yeah, if you don't water it, this year's fruit won't be sold at a high price!" Seeing the listless look of the fruit trees in the orchard, the second uncle shook his head and couldn't help sighing.

I didn't expect that this year's luck would be so bad. I actually encountered a drought when the fruit trees were bearing fruit. It hadn't rained for half a month. These days, the sky was clear, the sun was scorching, the ground was cracked, and the water stored in the ground had long been evaporated.

Therefore, if the fruit trees are not replenished with water, this year's fruit harvest will not be good, even if the harvest is very likely to fail.

Everyone didn't have time to talk too much, they were all busy diving to replenish water for the fruit trees.

"Oh, it's a pity that there is no electricity here, otherwise we can just use the water pump." Zhang Feng shook his head helplessly.

Well, let's carry water honestly! !

A load of water weighs about [-] to [-] catties. In the past, Zhang Feng would have trembled with exhaustion if he picked it two or three times, but now Zhang Feng's physical fitness is terrifying, he is simply a super strongman.

Not to mention seven or eighty catties, but one hundred and seventy-eight, two hundred and seventy-eight, Zhang Feng couldn't feel the slightest pressure.

Therefore, Zhang Feng watered at a very fast speed. The progress of one person was faster than that of the second uncle's family of three. Seeing Zhang Feng carrying a full bucket of water, it was like carrying an empty bucket, walking fast, The second uncle and the three were all amazed.

"Xiaofeng's strength is really too great!!"

"Yeah, what a good hand at work!!"

Zhang Yi also looked at his elder brother enviously, thinking in his heart, it would be great if he had such great strength! ! !
No matter what you do, as long as you devote yourself to it, time flies by quickly.

In a blink of an eye, it was ten o'clock in the morning. After more than three hours of hard work, Zhang Feng finally watered all the fruit trees in the orchard.

"Ah, it's finally finished, how many do you have, Second Uncle?" Zhang Feng sat down by the pool and asked the Second Uncle with a smile.

"Your speed is really fast, my family still has two or three acres, and it will take two hours to finish watering!!"

The second uncle smiled wryly and shook his head, thinking that his nephew is really too evil, and the three members of his family can't work faster than him alone, which is really helpless.

"Then let me water with you guys, finish watering early and go back early, or it will be hotter later!!" The temperature is not low at this time, it is estimated to be 27 octaves, and if it is noon, it will definitely exceed [-] degrees Spend.

"Haha, thank you Xiaofeng." The second uncle was not polite to Zhang Feng either. With Zhang Feng's help, it would take less than an hour for everyone to finish the work, or they would have to work until noon.

The sun at noon is extremely venomous, working under the scorching sun, you have to peel off three layers of skin.

"Ah, brother, it will be much faster with your help!!" Zhang Yi was already too tired to speak, but when he saw Zhang Feng coming to help, he was overjoyed and exclaimed excitedly.

"Xiaoyi, if you're tired, take a break, there's not much left, I'll take care of it in a while!!"

Although Zhang Yi was a little moved, seeing that everyone was busy, he finally shook his head, gritted his teeth and continued to persevere.

Zhang Feng smiled, and didn't try to persuade them anymore, because farmers are like this, with their faces facing the loess and their backs facing the sky, and they are living harder days than this.

Looking at the scorching sun in the sky, he was so hot that he wished that the whole earth would be roasted, so Zhang Feng sped up his speed again, and finally used his true skills,
Holding the water in both hands, the feet are like the wind, with a light touch, the body is suddenly as light as a swallow, and it shuttles quickly in the orchard.

This is too scary, it's like a martial arts master who has practiced light kung fu, one step is several meters away, and the added mountains and rocks can't stop Zhang Feng's footsteps at all.

Seeing Zhang Feng being so ferocious, Zhang Yi was stunned in horror, his mouth opened wide, and he didn't react for a long time.

"Brother, you... have you practiced martial arts secrets???" After a while, Zhang Yi finally came to his senses, and asked Zhang Feng excitedly.

"That's right, I practice every day, don't you see?" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Ah, what you practice every day is martial arts??"

Zhang Yi couldn't believe it, because he had seen Zhang Feng many times when he was practicing gymnastics, and it didn't look like there was anything unique about it, just like ordinary yoga.

Shaking his head, Zhang Yi still didn't quite believe it.

"Nonsense, mine is gymnastics. Regular practice can not only exercise your body, but also enhance your physical fitness. Do you think my mother's complexion is much better than before?" Zhang Feng rolled his eyes.

"Xiaofeng, is the thing you practice every day really useful?" Hearing the conversation between the two, the second aunt couldn't help asking.

The second aunt is very familiar with the situation of her sister-in-law. A year ago, the sister-in-law was like a gray-haired, wrinkled face, like an old lady in her 70s and [-]s.

But looking at it now, it looks like a middle-aged woman in her 50s and [-]s, suddenly [-] years younger. Before, she thought that her sister-in-law had such a big change because her family environment improved and she was in a happier mood.

But now it seems that it is not entirely because of this.
