Chapter 7509 Pig Killing Basin
After sitting in the fifth room for a while, letting Bao Suyun and his family share their family, Yang Ruoqing and Liu stood up to say goodbye
On the way to the drainage point, Yang Ruoqing Before she could tell Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu took the initiative to admit her mistake to her.
"Qing'er, my mouth is really troublesome. I almost let it slip and almost scared me to death."
"Fortunately, you are smart and found something else to cover it up. Yes, I promise not to be so quick next time.”
This attitude of admitting her mistake really made Yang Ruoqing lose her temper at all.
She stopped and smiled helplessly at Mrs. Liu, "Fourth Aunt, you have to remember what you said!"
......
Three drainage points, one is assumed to be at the entrance of the village, and two are assumed to be by the river behind the village.
The village entrance was surrounded by villagers who came to watch the fun.
Some people simply took off their shoes and socks, with their pants rolled up to their thighs, and stood in the water watching.
There is no place on the dry ground, people are crowded and people are touching each other.
“Oh my God, I didn’t even see a plowwheel hair, only people.” Liu stood on tiptoe and looked around for a while, and couldn’t help but complain.
Yang Ruoqing glanced around the crowd for a few times, not intending to squeeze in. Zuo Jingling happened to come over there with a boat, so Yang Ruoqing patted Ms. Liu on the arm: "Let's go, Aunt Four. Let’s look elsewhere.”
The two got on Zuo Jingling’s boat and walked smoothly through the village to the river at the entrance of the village.
On the way, Mrs. Liu looked at the flooded houses and shook her head.
“Even if the tide subsides this time, repairing the house will still be a tricky thing.” Liu said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded and said nothing, but her eyes carefully scanned everything passing by.
At the shallow water at the entrance of the village, Zuo Jingling stopped the boat because the water level further ahead was too shallow to row.
“Tangyazi, Tangyazi!”
Mr. Liu stood on the boat and shouted and waved to the other side of the river.
There were also several men surrounding the two waterwheels over there. The slender one among them, and just looking at his back, he could tell that he was the leader of the group. Naturally, he was Luo Fengtang.
He was teaching the people next to him how to use the waterwheel. He heard someone shouting from behind and turned around to take a look.
Then he said something to the people around him, turned around and strode out of the crowd towards the ship.
After crossing the shallow water and coming to the bow of the boat, his head and face were covered with sweat, but when he saw Yang Ruoqing standing on the bow and her bulging belly, his eyes were filled with light.
"If you don't stay at home, why are you here again?"
He said blaming words, as if she was a disobedient child and he was the parent.
However, the words of blame made people feel doting, and the eyes also revealed the joy of seeing her.
"I am a flower-legged cat and I can't stay at home." Yang Ruoqing said with a smile, and then stretched out her hand like a child.
"Come on, help me down by the hand, and I'll try running in the water too..."
Without saying a word, Luo Fengtang picked up Yang Ruoqing and strode towards the dry ground.
Mr. Liu's voice came from behind: "Qing'er, Tangyazi, I'm waiting for you to pick me up!"
......
"I originally I want to leave by myself..." Yang Ruoqing said while hugging his neck.
Luo Fengtang lowered his eyes to look at her in his arms, his eyebrows raised: "Why do you have to wet your feet when I'm here?"
"Um... the fourth aunt is still on the boat. How are you going to get her off later?"
Should I hug her too? If you don’t want to hold her, you have to carry her on her back. You’re too embarrassed to ask your fourth aunt to come over by yourself, right?
Luo Fengtang said: "I have a way to prevent my fourth aunt from getting her feet wet." As a result, when Yang Ruoqing's feet stood firmly on the dry ground, Baozi brother Wang Liang and another man dragged him He came towards me with a big basin.
Yang Ruoqing recognized this basin at a glance as the big basin used by the Sun family to soak the pigs when they killed them.
"Tangyaozi, they are..."
"Go to pick up the fourth aunt." Luo Fengtang said.
"Ah? This, this, this..."
"Don't worry, the basin is clean. We use it frequently these days." Luo Fengtang said again.
Yang Ruoqing said nothing and stood there watching Mrs. Liu being helped by the two of them to step into the basin with one foot.
Judging from the appearance of the fourth aunt, she should have resisted at first, but I don’t know how Wang Liang and the others communicated with her, so the fourth aunt reluctantly entered the big basin.
Wang Liang and Wang Liang pulled the big basin towards the shore in the water. Mrs. Liu was standing in the big basin with her body bent, her hands tightly holding the edge of the big basin, her body swaying left and right, her face tense. It was tight and looked extremely nervous.
After landing, she was helped out by Wang Liang and the others. She was still standing on the ground unable to straighten up.
Wang Liang and the others then went to work on the waterwheel. Luo Fengtang also explained a few words to Yang Ruoqing and returned to work with the men.
Yang Ruoqing came to Mrs. Liu and supported her, "Fourth Aunt, are you okay?"
Ms. Liu patted her chest hard and held Yang Ruoqing's hand tightly with her other hand, for fear that she would run away.
“Oh my god, I have grown so big, and this is the first time I have sat in a pig-killing pot.”
“If I go back and tell your fourth uncle now, your fourth uncle will definitely laugh. Die."
Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows: "What's so funny about this? Tang Yazi and the others are using it these days, as long as it's convenient. That's fine."
Liu's smile was a bit far-fetched, "The truth is that, but when I think of the pig being pressed inside and scalded with boiling water, its hair was plucked, its eyes were narrowed, and its mouth was curved. , the smile made me feel sick all over, as if I was that big fat pig..."
"Fourth Aunt, you are not only a great prophet, you are also a great visionary." Yang Ruoqing said.
"If you feel uncomfortable, I will give you two choices when I go back later."
"One, go through the water by yourself."
"Two, you go See which man is willing to carry you over, even if he is carrying you on a piggyback."
Ms. Liu looked at the men over there, all of them were strong men that made her salivate.
"If I'm not afraid of your jokes, it doesn't matter who wants to carry me or hug me. I'm happy with it, but I'm just afraid that they won't be happy with it. Giggle..."
Ms. Liu covered her mouth and laughed until she smiled. Trembling.
Yang Ruoqing was also amused.
"If it doesn't work out, how about I go talk to Tang Yazi and ask him to carry you over, Fourth Aunt?"
Ms. Liu waved her hands repeatedly: "I was just joking, then. How can I, I am an elder, I don’t want to eat the tofu of the younger generation!”
Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes.
"Okay, stop being so talkative. Let's go over and take a look at the drainage. I'm so curious!" Ms. Liu pulled Yang Ruoqing towards the waterwheel.
Yang Ruoqing said hello, and the two of them came to the waterwheel and found an open space to watch carefully.
The two keel waterwheels are longer than the one at the entrance of the village, nearly six meters long. At first glance, they look like a long dragon standing on the ground.
The structure inside is incomprehensible to Yang Ruoqing, a layman. He only knows that one end of the waterwheel is set up on the river bank, extending into the water, and the other end is placed on the river.
The front of the waterwheel is controlled by manpower, with hand-turned handles and foot-stepped wheels. The complex machinery inside is driven by manpower, and then water is continuously sucked into the long channel in the middle of the waterwheel. Finally, Excrete all into the river.
