I am many years in the courtyard

Chapter 103, Water pump jokes

The eight team members of the Fifth Design Office have been completely conquered by many years of strength.

A rendering, a very beautiful rendering, was completely completed in less than an hour.

This strength is simply invincible.

"Team leader, how did you do it? Also, such a realistic rendering makes me really want to live in it."

Chen Xiaoxian's big eyes were full of admiration, and her expression was filled with amazement.

Xia Lan and the other lesbians were similar, especially Hu Shufen, who sighed inwardly. After all, she still didn't have that luck and blessing.

Many years are too good.

At least this unique skill is definitely very popular in the design institute.

And such a young talent is actually engaged, and the key is that he takes care of his family very much.

Don't all good men belong to someone else's family?

"Have you forgotten what I just said again?" Many years had to knock on the table and let them figure it out by themselves.

"If you have time to gossip and ask questions, why don't you have time to improve yourself? Work hard and don't disturb my reading."

Everyone: "."

He blatantly fished and said it out, but everyone had nothing to say.

For many years, he didn't care what their reaction was, as long as he didn't disturb his reading.

He read a book quietly, and he didn't clear the table until he got off work, then got up and went home.

After arriving home, he jumped to the bottom of the well and continued digging, and the water should come out today.

Sure enough, after Lao Xu and the others came back, the speed increased a lot, and water finally came out from the bottom of the well.

After so many days of hard work, the well was finally dug out.

The eldest Xu Danian was curious, "Third brother, can you get out your mysterious water pump now?"

When he said this, Lao Xu and Xu Niannian also looked curiously at him.

Because the sump pump mentioned for many years, oh, the automatic sump pump to be precise, is quite mysterious.

Anyway, Zhou Hongmei and the others were very curious at the time, and because they were unwilling to reveal it for many years, they were still very angry at that time, and they didn't want Xu Laosan to eat.

"Brother, what are you in a hurry for? Let's fix the well first."

The well is not just dug, but it needs to be fixed with stones, extending from the bottom of the well to the mouth of the well.

Some time ago, Lao Xu and the others brought back a lot of long stones from outside, and now they can be used.

Because the water has already come out, the well must be completely cleaned up tonight.

Otherwise, when the well overflows with water, it will be difficult to fix it.

Throughout the night, Old Xu's family was busy.

Neighbors were also surprised to see that there was a well in the yard, and everyone thought it would be an advantage.

For the well over the laundry trough, when there are many people, there is still a queue.

Especially when doing laundry, it can be troublesome.

For many years, I didn't take it seriously for the sudden flattery of the neighbors, but tomorrow you will know that you really can't use this well.

Besides, before he was going to dig a well, you neighbors were still taking advantage of the fire and looting. He is very vengeful, how could he give them water?

Another day, I went to Pigeon City again after many years.

Apart from buying food and storing the food in the bracelet space, there is nothing else to do.

For one thing, the Pigeon Market is so big that there will be no more than 50 people at the peak of its popularity.

Secondly, it is really impossible to do business in this era, even if he has the space for the bracelet, there is no way to do it.

After all, there is almost no profit in food. If you don't do food business, you can't do other businesses at all.

There are so many restrictions that people can't do anything about it.

When eating breakfast, he had told Qin Huairu for many years that there was no need to leave him food at noon, and he would not come back for lunch.

"Then did you bring food stamps and money?" Qin Huairu asked concerned: "When I went shopping with my mother this morning, I almost forgot to bring money."

The family's financial power is currently in the hands of Zhou Hongmei.

In the past, Fan Zhaodi and Hu Meifeng took turns to go to the vegetable market with Zhou Hongmei to buy vegetables. After all, the latter could not bring so many vegetables back.

But now, the job almost falls to Qin Huairu.

For many years, he persuaded her not to work so hard.

Who knew, she didn't feel hard work at all, and she enjoyed it.

The prices of vegetables in the vegetable market are familiar to everyone. Although the prices of vegetables have not changed, she remembers them very clearly and has summed up a lot of rules.

After all, some dishes are a few cents cheaper in the evening market.

"Don't worry, I remember."

Many Nian swallowed a mouthful of food and said, "I'm going to Xidan at noon to buy some materials to make an automatic water pump. At that time, I will bring it back and put it in the well at night, and then connect it to the water pipe and it will be ready to use."

"Third uncle, are you making this automatic water pump at your work unit? Is it difficult to learn? Can you teach me?"

Suddenly, the little guy Xu Weidong asked, which surprised everyone.

Old Xu was even more comforted, and praised his grandson fiercely.

"Third brother, if it's not difficult, you can teach Xiaodong, it's rare for him to have such an ambition."

Hearing Lao Xu's words, he said helplessly for many years:
"Father, even you may not be able to learn it well, let alone Xiaodong? Do you really think I don't want to teach?"

When everyone heard this, they were immediately disappointed.

Especially Fan Zhaodi, she was most looking forward to just now.

It would be great if her son could learn a little from his third uncle.

Now it seems that this automatic water pump is really impossible for ordinary people to play.

Back to the Design Institute, one morning, I was fishing again for many years.

This class is really cool.

He can complete tasks efficiently and then read a book leisurely, which is really cool.

Chen Xiaoxian and the others are very envious, but they are only envious.

After get off work at noon, I ate in the cafeteria for many years, and then went to Xidan.

Xidan is not far from Fuxingmen, less than two kilometers away, and it will arrive soon after many years.

It took more than half an hour and nearly eight yuan for him to purchase the materials he wanted.

After returning to the design institute, he started to fiddle with it.

The automatic water pump is quite simple to make.

But you have to have the right tools.

Its principle is very simple, in fact, it is to use the impact force formed by the drop of water to pump water from a low place to a high place.

Chen Xiaoxian saw that he was tinkering with something she didn't understand, she just asked a few questions out of curiosity, but she didn't get a real response, and she was taught a lesson for many years, so she curled her lips and continued to work.

In half an afternoon, the relevant parts have been installed for many years. At that time, you only need to take it home, install it at the bottom of the well, and then connect the water pipes.

As soon as he arrived in the courtyard, all the neighbors' eyes were on him.

"For many years, is this the water pump you mentioned? It doesn't look like much to me, can it really pump water?"

Sitting at the door of her house, Aunt Yan asked with a smile.

Aunt Wang next to her also asked curiously, why doesn't she look good?Can you really pump water?
Before waiting for many years to speak, Zhou Hongmei replied with one sentence:

"Can you pump water, don't you know later? Who are you going to listen to here?"

The two immediately shut up and did not speak again.

The neighbors may not have bad natures, but who knows?
Just based on what you said just now, if you say it's just a small talk, I'm afraid it may not be the case, right?
For many years, the materials for the water pump were brought to the well in the middle courtyard. Xu Xiaoqian and the other little guys stood by and observed carefully.

Not only the few of them, Liu Guangtian and the others also came, and even the deaf old lady, the ancestor, was watching in surprise.

But Zhou Hongmei drove Liu Guangtian and the others to the side, "Go, go, what's there to see? It's in the way. We'll bump into it later, don't blame us for not reminding you."

Although it is true that I am afraid that the children will be injured, it is more that I am afraid that they will steal the teacher.

Although her third child had already said that this thing is not so easy to learn, Zhou Hongmei would rather not let them see it, and also put an end to the risk of being leaked.

For many years squatting next to the well, I didn't care about these at all.

Just work.

"Xiaomei, please pass this to me later."

After working for a while, he started to install the well for many years, and asked Xu Wumei to help.

Soon, his feet were spread apart, and they were stuck in the depressions on both sides of the well. This was the position reserved when the well was drilled last night.

The next step is to work underground, install the pump and connect the water pipes.

Before he could finish all this, Old Xu and the others came back.

The courtyard has become more lively.

Not only He Yuzhu, Xu Damao and other neighbors from the quadrangle courtyard were curious to see it, but even the neighbors from several nearby yards also ran in to watch the excitement.

Water pumps and running water, all of these are novelties in the courtyard.

Although the Dongzhimen Water Tower was demolished not long ago, not many families could afford tap water before.

To be honest, it’s not that I haven’t thought about looking for second-hand water pipes from big families who have used tap water before for many years.

But this thing is long gone.

why?
Because this year is [-], at the beginning of the year, due to the problem of steel production, everyone was collecting steel and handing it over to the street office.

Then there are sub-district offices to use it to refine steel plants, so as to increase steel production.

Therefore, all the useless iron around the courtyard has been pried away, so how can there be any left?

However, it seems that water pipes made of bamboo are not unusable.

Moreover, because these bamboos are old bamboos that have grown for many years in the northern land, it goes without saying that they are hard.

The yard was full of people, and everyone stood on tiptoe, looking at the well at the door of the anteroom.

Old Xu and his family surrounded the well, as if blocking the eyes of the outside world.

That is to say, the people in the well didn't know about it for many years. If they knew, they would probably be laughing.

After Fan Guiming and the others got off work, they didn't leave immediately. They also sat in the side room to watch the excitement.

The binding of the steel bars has been completed today, and the pouring of concrete can begin tomorrow.

"Old Xu, is the third child in your family okay? How long has it been? It hasn't been done yet. If it's really not good, then don't do it."

Yan Bugui sat on the long bench, watching leisurely like a meeting of the whole courtyard.

"Third Master is right. Xu Lao San is just like the white case in our rolling mill. He loves to talk big, and he blows the cowhide to the sky."

Xu Damao who was next to him also complained cheaply, and He Yuzhu immediately became unhappy: "Who are you talking about, Xu Damao? Your skin is itchy, right? See if I don't beat you to death."

Bai An'er means making pasta, and He Yuzhu is a cook, and he also likes to talk big, so he immediately took a seat.

The feature film was not released, but He Yuzhu and Xu Damao, the happy friends, put on a good show for everyone.

The two chased and fought for a while, and then stopped under Yi Zhonghai's scolding.

Of course, Xu Damao is the king of mouth, he was slapped by He Yuzhu, and now he muttered something.

But seeing that He Yuzhu was still waving his hand and was about to rush over, he quickly moved away from him.

Until this time, after many years, he returned to the mouth of the well, looked around, and was startled:
"Hey, is there a general meeting today?"

It doesn't seem right, there are not so many people in the general meeting.

After all, the yard is really big. There are more than 100 people in total, all standing in the yard, and there is still a lot of free space.

But now?
Inside and out, it's all human.

"Third brother, they are all bad guys who came to see your jokes, hehe, especially that Xu Damao, who was still making sarcastic remarks just now."

Xu Wumei puffed her face angrily, and said angrily.

"The mouth grows on other people, so they can say whatever they like." Many years smiled, and then said:

"Besides, he, Xu Damao, is what everyone often says, cooking dumplings in a teapot."

"Third Uncle, what do you mean cooking dumplings in a teapot?"

The studious Xu Xiaoman asked curiously, she didn't understand, but her aunt understood, "It's just that there is something in my stomach, and I can't pour it out."

The neighbors around heard their conversation, and couldn't help laughing softly.

Only Xu Damao's face was black as ink, but he didn't speak.

As a typical representative of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, Xu Damao has been dealt with for many years, and he also knows that the latter is very strong, so he has no idea of ​​confronting the strong at all.

As for the yin?
I haven't thought of it yet, but when he thinks about it, or encounters a suitable opportunity, he will definitely not be merciful.

After all, he is a selfish, jealous hypocrite.

"Father, I've already messed up here, I'll connect the water pipes later, do the finishing work, and then you can go to the room and turn on the faucet later."

After hearing the words for many years, Lao Xu responded.

The latter went down again, and soon he came up again.

The neighbors stretched their necks one after another, wanting to see how miracles have been created over the years.

For many years, he smiled and said to his sister, niece and nephew, "Today, let's use a small knife to open our eyes. Dad, please open the valve and see if there is any water."

He yelled out the last sentence into the ear room.

In the yard at this moment, the big guys are even more excited and looking forward to it, and they all want to find out.

And Lao Xu in the house, after hearing the sound, turned on the tap valve.

Suddenly, muddy well water gushed out.
