farmer's husband

Chapter 27
Chun Zhi was stunned when he heard this.

"You don't really have a fever, do you?" She reached out to touch his forehead.

Chai Dong pushed her hand away with a cold face, and then took the bucket and pole from her, and carried them on his shoulders.

It's just the first time he did this kind of thing. After putting the pole on his shoulders, it slid back and forth for a while. The two buckets kept swinging back and forth as if there were dozens of frogs inside. no.

Chunzhi looked amused, and hurried over to hold him down, adjusted the pole for him, and then took his hand and put it on the front and back of the pole. "That's it, isn't it good?"

After her adjustments, the pole is no longer slippery, and the bucket is no longer wobbly!
Chai Dong's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but look at Chun Zhi twice more.

However, when he met Shang Chunzhi's eyes full of complacency, his eyes flickered again, he quickly turned his head, and rushed forward with two empty buckets.

"This kid!" Seeing this, Chun Zhi couldn't help but snort, but immediately stopped laughing and went after Chai Dong.

At this time, there was already a long queue at the well at the entrance of the village.Chai Dong appeared carrying a shoulder pole, and this scene immediately caused a sensation.

"This is... Boy Dong from Aunt Lihua's family?" a person whispered in disbelief.

The others also looked him up and down several times, and asked him in a low voice: "Didn't you not work before? Why did you come to fetch water by yourself today? Your mother asked you to come here?"

"No, I think it's because he loves his wife dearly, that's why he came here!"

"But his mother is willing? How precious is Wang Lihua's son, we can all see it!"

Everyone talked to each other, and the more they talked, the more excited they became, so they almost came over and shook Chai Dong by the shoulder to make him tell the truth.

But no matter what the people in front of him guessed, Chai Dong just stood quietly at the back of the line.That face was still tense, and the mouth was also tightly pursed into a line. It was still the same as the green bamboo branching Lingshuang and Aoxue, not disturbed by all the disturbances around him at all.

Everyone asked him that he didn't have an answer, so they turned their attention to Chun Zhi who was following him.

But how would Chun Zhi answer this question?She could only smirk, and then shut her mouth tightly like Chai Dong to be dumb.

The villagers could not see the answer, so they could only turn their heads resentfully, and continued to discuss this strange matter with the people in front and behind in a low voice.

Slowly, the people in front fetched water and left, and finally it was Chunzhi and Chaidong's turn.

When the people in front were fetching water just now, Chai Dong stared at it for a while.So now it was his turn, he just followed their example and shook the wheel to lower the bucket, and then slowly pulled up the rope to pull the bucket up.When I pulled it to the front, there was already half a bucket of water in the bucket.

"Xianggong, you are amazing!" Seeing Chun Zhi, she couldn't help giving Chai Dong a thumbs up.

This kid is indeed smart.I have never fetched water before, but now I watched how other people did it, and then I did it myself, and I was able to successfully fetch water!
You know, when she first started learning to fetch water, she failed several times!
When the people behind saw this, their eyes were also full of surprise.

"Boy Dong really has some skills! The first time he fetched water, I thought he would have to struggle for a while!"

Chai Dong pulled the corner of his mouth, let out a low hum, poured the water from the small bucket into the bucket he brought, and continued to bend down to fetch water.The second time he brought up more water than the first time, and even more the third time.

After five or six shots, the two buckets were already half full.

Chaidong picked up the bucket with a pole again, and wanted to walk back crookedly.

Chun Zhi hurriedly stopped him. "Let me choose today! The road is not easy to walk, and it's your first time working, so be careful not to fall."

She spoke the truth.The snow has melted for a day and a night, and it has almost melted now.It's just that the small road in the village is muddy because it has been soaked in snow water for so long, and it is extremely difficult to walk without carrying anything, let alone carrying two heavy buckets of water?
But Chaidong felt that what she said was humiliating him!
"I can do it."

He said coldly, insisting on picking up the water and leaving.

However, with two such heavy barrels, he tried several times just to pick them up.It was so easy to stand up, his shoulders were almost crushed!The whole person was tilted to the right, and he was about to fall over.

Seeing it, the people in the village couldn't help shouting: "It's going to fall, it's going to fall, it's going to fall!"

However, after shaking violently from side to side several times, Chai Dong froze and did not fall down.

The others saw it and applauded him sincerely. "Boy Dong, I have you! You are really amazing!"

Encouraged, Chai Dong quickly raised his chin, and strode forward again.

Then--

With a crackling sound, he fell to the ground with the bucket.

The man fell and the dog gnawed on the mud, and the two buckets also fell to the ground, and all the water in them spilled out, making his clothes wet.

"Hahaha!"

When the villagers saw this scene, they immediately laughed unceremoniously.

Chai Dong's face turned red immediately, and there were two flashes of water in his eye sockets.

Chun Zhi saw it, and she felt very distressed, so she hurried over to help him up. "Didn't I tell you from the beginning? The road is not good today, so let's forget about it! I'll carry water, you watch first, and you can come to carry water when the weather is better."

"No, I can do it." But Chai Dong still said the same thing, without her help, he just got up by himself holding the mud on the ground.

He carried the bucket and went to line up at the back of the line.

"Boy Dong, stop queuing and come directly to fetch water. We won't compete with you!" The person who had already queued up said to him cheerfully, and the others also nodded.

Looking at the pair of excited eyes waiting to watch the show, Chai Dong gritted his teeth. "I dont go."

Hey!
Everyone sighed in disappointment, and could only lower their heads to fetch water one by one.

However, when these people returned home after fetching water, they brought back the news that Chai Dong actually accompanied his little wife to the entrance of the village to fetch water.Then, many people from the village came to watch the excitement.

Unsurprisingly, the most vicious spectator is Chai Dong's nemesis—Wang Zongping, the grandson of the head of Wangjiacun.

"Hahaha, hahaha!"

He rushed over after hearing the news, and when he saw Chai Dong's distressed appearance, Wang Zongping smiled very ferociously.

"Chai Dong, Chai Dong, I didn't expect you to have this day! But, listen to my advice, return the shoulder pole to your wife honestly, the difficult work of carrying water is not something you can do. And You are so skinny..." He looked Chai Dong up and down maliciously, "Are you sure that even if you can pick it up now, you can persist in picking it up and go home? Don't walk halfway and fall again later. And you It doesn't matter if you fall down, if the bucket breaks, your mother will have no choice but to find someone to pay for it, and your family will not even have water in a while! Hahaha!"

Chai Dong's face turned purple from his smile.

"Then just wait and see if I can do it!" He said through gritted teeth.

"Okay!" Wang Zongping nodded cheerfully, "But, since it's a bet, how can you do it without a bet? Well, if you can do it, I'll give you two new door panels. But if you lose... "

He glanced at Chun Zhi again. "If you're going to lose, how about asking your daughter-in-law to go to my house to take care of a cat for me?"

Chai Dong immediately glanced over coldly.

Wang Zongping teased. "Why, can't afford to gamble?"

"I don't bet on my wife." Chai Dong said coldly, "Besides, I will definitely win."

"Yo, the tone is quite loud!" Wang Zongping smiled, "If you want to say that, I really want to see if you can carry two buckets of water home with your small body!"

"Then you just wait and see." Chai Dong lowered his eyes.

While talking, it happened to be him again.Chai Dong still filled two buckets of water with some hands and feet, and then carried them on a pole.Putting the shoulder pole on his shoulders, he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and kicked his feet, and the two buckets slowly left the ground and got up.

It's just that he filled the water so much this time, as soon as he moved, the surface of the water wobbled and splashed a lot.

Chun Zhi was anxious to see, and couldn't help but want to reach out to help him.

When Wang Zongping saw it, the corners of his mouth widened: "Little daughter-in-law of the Chai family, this is a game between us men, and no one else can interfere. If you intervene, your man will lose!"

Chai Dong also shook his head at Chun Zhi. "Leave it alone."

Harue had no choice but to withdraw his hand.

In this way, she can only watch helplessly that such a thin body of Chai Dong is carrying two buckets full of water, stepping on the muddy dirt road, staggering back and forth.

Several times, he was about to fall down, and he even leaned to the side with the bucket.

At this time, Wang Zongping would shout with great joy: "It's down, it's about to fall!"

But Chai Dong just wouldn't fall, he swayed in the opposite direction again in a daze, stabilized himself with difficulty, and then slowly started to move forward again.Wang Zongping was immediately disappointed: "Really, why didn't it fall?"

In this way, Chai Dong desperately moved forward, while Wang Zongping made interference from the side.The two of them walked all the way, attracting many people to watch.These pairs of eyes were staring at Chai Dong, eagerly waiting for him to fall in front of them, this pressure... If it were her, Chun Zhi thought she would not be able to bear it anymore!
But Chai Dong was able to carry it down with his tenacity!

Although it was difficult to walk again, he moved to the door of his house little by little, and carried two buckets of water into the house.

With a bang, he put the bucket in the yard. Before he even had time to wipe off the sweat on his face, he looked up at Wang Zongping who followed him all the way: "I won! When are you going to give me the two door panels?"
