Going through ancient farming to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 138 Chapter 138

All the people in the tribe went to the pumpkin fields, some were planted at the foot of the mountain, and some were planted in the sugarcane field.After a few days of busy work, I finished planting the pumpkins.After working for half a month, I planted all the beans.

Everyone was so busy that their heels couldn't touch the ground, and everyone was so tired that they were dark and thin, and the effect was better than diet pills.

After the busy work, everyone had a good rest for the day. Aunt Yun took a few flowers and made a bunch of delicious treats for everyone.

Yao Xiaoqing chewed the beef jerky, and wandered outside to look at the sugarcane.She was pleasantly surprised to find that most of these sugarcane pockets had survived, and the sugarcane that had grown had reached her waist.

And those fruit trees that survived.

Among the kinds of fruit trees she knew, the small pear trees bloomed a few pure white pear blossoms.Several persimmon trees and pepper trees also bloomed small bright yellow flowers.

While happy, she was also a little worried.According to the records in the diary, from the beginning of the busy farming season, there have been only two light rains in the past two months or nearly three months. Both times, the ground did not even get wet, and the rain stopped.

There were only six cloudy days, and the rest of the days were sunny every day.I have never seen a rainy day in spring.

The water in the river is also shallow, and the water flowing down from the ravine is smaller than before.

When irrigating crops, it takes half a day to block the water outlet, so that the water in the ditch will fill up to the water outlet opened by the field.

She found Yaohu and told him the situation.

Although Yao and Hu have experienced drought, they have never had the experience of dealing with this kind of thing. Their ancestors, the way to deal with it is to migrate.

He looked at her in a daze, "Xiaoqing, is there anything I can do?"

Yao Xiaoqing said: "Let's dig the reservoir first, and with the water in those ponds, it shouldn't be a problem to irrigate the crops. We can dig wells for the water we eat."

She thinks that the groundwater resources here should be very rich, and it should not be a problem to drill a well.

"Water well?" Yaohu had never heard of it before, "What is it?"

Yao Xiaoqing thought for a while and said, "Father, the gods told me that there is water under the ground. As long as you find the right place and dig to a depth as long as a bamboo, water will emerge."

"The well looks a bit like the big wooden barrel we bathe in, and there are some bigger than it. Let's wait and see, if it is really dry, we will start digging the well to get water."

After hearing this, Yaohu didn't even think about it, so he nodded without hesitation, "Okay, then let's dig the reservoir first, and when there is really no water, we will dig the well you mentioned."

Yao Xiaoqing suddenly remembered something again, "Father, is it the day for the Shenmu Tribe to fight?"

She felt that it was really a headache not to have an exact date, so she left a sentence to fight again next spring.There are more than 100 days in spring, who knows when you will come?

Yaohu frowned and said, "I'm thinking about this too! Let's not hunt for now, and fix the reservoirs and granaries you mentioned in the tribe, as well as the roofs that were crushed by snow, and wait for them to come."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Uncle Dashi told you that the Dawu tribe also has bows and arrows?"

Yaohu smiled and nodded, "Say it, they also made two shields and hats. We tried it and it worked, but the wooden arrows with flints didn't penetrate it. I'm not busy now, let Ah Chong Uncle and the others hurry up, it will be ready in a few days."

Yao Xiaoqing thought for a while, "You can weave two gown-like ones, and put them on to protect your chest and vest."

"Okay!" Yaohu looked at his tired, black and thin daughter lovingly, "Don't worry, father will take them to finish the work, and you can have fun for a few days."

Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said, "I'm not a child. Even Yaya and Asen are herding cattle and sheep! I'll tell you where the reservoir was dug. I want to go to the mountains to dig some notoginseng back." She I still want to see that piece of ramie, has it grown?
Yaohu nodded, "You ask your elder brother to go with you."

"Brother and Uncle A Chong went to catch wild ducks together, I will do it myself."

"Call Taro and go together!"

Yao Xiaoqing had no choice but to nod, and the father and daughter went to the field. After she pointed out the location to Yaohu, she marked the location with a wooden stick and went back.

Yao Xiaoqing went back to bring the things to go out, broke a few snakes to kill the door, took the engineering shovel, called taro, and the two went out to the mountain with the basket on their backs.

The forest is full of flowers of various colors, and there is a sweet smell in the air.

Taro picked a red flower, smelled it, stuck it in her hair, turned her head to look at Yao Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, is it pretty?"

Yao Xiaoqing looked at her round smiling face, nodded and said, "Looks good! Yuzi, why don't you find someone to pair with?"

"Oh!" Yuzi sighed, "I like what I don't like, and I don't want to be with others..."

Yao Xiaoqing looked at her in surprise, "You have someone you like, who has such bad eyes and doesn't like our taro, such a good woman."

Yuzi said angrily, "It's that guy, he said he likes strong women."

"Hahaha!" Yao Xiaoqing laughed loudly, "You know that! He has always liked strong women. Last time they went to Qiushan Daji, he told my brother to bring back strong women."

Yuzi rolled her eyes, "What's so good about a strong woman, isn't it that she has more strength! I'm also very strong now! He doesn't believe that pig!"

Yao Xiaoqing pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Go and fight with him, press him to the ground, and let him know that you are also very strong."

Yuzi's eyes lit up, and he pulled Yao Xiaoqing to beg: "Xiaoqing, please teach me a trick, I promise to beat him, and make him agree to pair with me."

The Overlord bows hard!After hearing this, Yao Xiaoqing gave Yuzi a thumbs-up, and said cheerfully, "So our Yuzi is still a fierce girl. Alright! I'll teach you a trick when I get back, and help you defeat brother pig."

Yuzi didn't know what a fierce girl meant, but she knew that Yao Xiaoqing's thumbs-up meant to praise that person for being powerful and capable.

"Xiaoqing, if I really win the fight, I'll only pair him up if he really wants to pair up with me!"

"Which one are you and him?" Yao Xiaoqing looked at her with a smile.

Yuzi's face turned red immediately, "You are still young, I will tell you later."

Yao Xiaoqing stopped teasing her and nodded with a smile, "Okay, tell me when I grow up."

Yuzi looked at her, thought of Yan Yu, hesitated and said to her: "Xiao Qing, I found out that Yan Yu from the Great Witch Tribe likes you."

Yao Xiaoqing shrugged, "It's no use if he likes me, and I don't like him. Besides, he can't beat me."

Yuzi nodded, "Oh! It's really annoying if you don't like it. I'm still thinking about whether to call him or not."

Yao Xiaoqing glanced at her in surprise, "Is there someone in the tribe who likes you?"

Yuzi twitched and said, "Well! Quan likes me, but I don't like him. I think he is like a bamboo pole. I like him who is as strong as him."
