A night of silence.
The next morning, Zhou Ziwen was awakened by the sound of Dad Chen getting up.
He looked at the time and found that it was only five o'clock.
It's still dark outside.
“Dad, you got up so early?”
Zhou Ziwen asked.
While talking, Zhou Ziwen also climbed up from the floor.
"Well, I have to go to work later, so you can get some sleep!" Father Chen nodded in response.
"It's okay, I'm almost asleep."
Zhou Ziwen shook his head.
"Dad, are you going to work?"
Chen Shiying's voice came from the bed.
Obviously, the sound of Zhou Ziwen and Chen’s father talking just now woke him up.
While talking, the three of them got up.
After getting up, Chen Shiying and Zhou Ziwen started busy making breakfast, leaving Father Chen with nothing to do.
When the kitchen was not busy, Zhou Ziwen came to the door of the house, ready to breathe fresh air.
The morning air was slightly cool. Zhou Ziwen took a few deep breaths and felt that his whole body was very energetic.
The sky in the east began to turn white, indicating that a new day was about to begin.
It will be time to start work in a while, and most of the farm members are up at this time.
Cooking and washing are full of the atmosphere of life.
A neighbor saw Zhou Ziwen and spoke to him out of curiosity.
“You are Lao Chen’s son-in-law!”
Zhou Ziwen turned around and saw a middle-aged woman standing not far away, holding a water ladle in her hand. Smiling at him.
"Yes, Auntie, my name is Zhou Ziwen." He responded politely.
"The young man is so handsome. Old Chen has found a good son-in-law!"
Another aunt next to her smiled and spoke.
"Ziwen, this is your Aunt Wang, and this is Aunt Li."
At this time, Father Chen heard their voices, came out of the house, and introduced Zhou Ziwen one time.
"Aunt Wang, Aunt Li, hello." Zhou Ziwen greeted them one by one.
Everyone was very busy in the morning. Aunt Wang and Aunt Li didn't talk much. After getting to know each other, they went about their business.
At this time, Chen Shiying's meal was also ready.
"Dad, the water at home is almost gone. Where did you get the water here? I will get some back later."
While eating, Zhou Ziwen asked.
"The place to fetch water is a bit far, I will take you there later!"
Because he still had to go to work, Father Chen did not refuse.
There is lunch at home, and if there is no water, we can’t cook.
“Yeah.”
Zhou Ziwen nodded.
After dinner, Zhou Ziwen picked up the bucket and set off with Father Chen.
The place where the farm collects water is indeed a bit far, and we have to walk several miles.
"Dad, why is our water fetching place so far away?"
After walking for a while, Zhou Ziwen asked.
It wasn’t that he felt tired, he just felt it was too inconvenient.
Especially for Father Chen, he has to go to work every day and has to travel so far to fetch water. This is too tiring.
"This is pretty good. At least we can still get water now. If there is a drought, the water here will not be enough." Father Chen sighed.
Life here is really hard.
"Then have we thought about drilling more wells on our farm?"
Zhou Ziwen was moved in his heart and asked. He has the skill of digging wells. Although the skill level is not very high, it is still useful enough.
Especially now that he has the bonus of Feng Shui skills. As long as there is water underground, he can successfully drill a well.
There is such a shortage of water here on the farm. If he can help dig a few wells, everyone here will be grateful to him.
He is Father Chen’s son-in-law. When the time comes, all these favors will fall on Father Chen.
When they leave, Dad Chen will also be taken care of by everyone.
Every time we fetch water on the farm from now on, we will think of the person who dug the well.
Don’t forget the well digger when you are ready. This is no joke.
Dad Chen shook his head, "Drilling a well is not an easy task. It requires professional people, and it also requires funds and equipment. Our farm conditions are limited, so we are not able to do it yet."
"Dad, actually I know how to dig a well, I can give it a try." Zhou Ziwen said.
Dad Chen looked at him in surprise: "Ziwen, can you dig a well?"
Zhou Ziwen nodded: "I learned some when I was in the country, although I didn't dare It’s guaranteed to be successful, but you can give it a try.”
Dad Chen thought for a while, and then said, “Okay, but don’t force it. If it doesn’t work, forget it.”
He really hoped that Zhou Ziwen could dig out the well. If he did, it would be easier for them to fetch water in the future.
Zhou Ziwen said: "Dad, don't worry, I will do what I can."
He also knows that Chen's father is worried, it is just that he is afraid that he is not sure and will fight it out when the time comes. There was no water in his well, so he did useless work, and then everyone complained.
But he was sure of it.
Through Feng Shui, he can determine where there is water.
As long as the location is determined, water will definitely come out.
Of course, if you want to dig a well, you must first discuss it with the person in charge of the farm.
Zhou Ziwen and Chen's father continued to walk to the place where they fetched water. Along the way, he was also observing the surrounding terrain.
Only by fully understanding the terrain trend around the farm can we better explore whether water can emerge from the ground.
When he came to the place where he fetched water, Zhou Ziwen fetched the water.
The water quality here is actually not good, and it is a little yellowish, but there is nothing we can do about it. They are already short of water in this place, so it would be nice to have water.
"Dad, you go ahead and do your work first. I will go back by myself later."
Zhou Ziwen said.
"Okay, I'll leave first."
Dad Chen nodded.
It was almost time to start work, and he couldn't delay for too long.
After Chen’s father left, he also carried water home.
After returning home, he talked to Chen Shiying about digging a well.
"Ziwen, can we dig a well here on the farm?" Chen Shiying asked happily.
“I don’t know yet. I need to check the terrain of the farm first.”
Zhou Ziwen opened his mouth to answer.
“Ziwen, thank you.”
Chen Shiying looked at Zhou Ziwen gratefully.
She knew that the reason why Zhou Ziwen did all this was to make Father Chen's living environment better in the future.
Zhou Ziwen hugged Chen Shiying and said, "Shiying, we are a family, there is no need to be so polite."
"Yes."
Chen Shiying nestled in Zhou Ziwen's arms, with a happy smile on her face.
Next, Zhou Ziwen began to observe the terrain of the farm.
His Feng Shui has reached level three and he can observe certain Feng Shui patterns.
At the same time, he was also observing the topography of the farm, the dryness and wetness of the soil, and the growth of surrounding vegetation.
After all this, Zhou Ziwen also gained a certain degree of confidence in drilling wells.
He found a low-lying area on the south side of the farm. According to his judgment, there was a greater possibility of underground water there.
In addition, there are some signs next to a forest to the east that indicate a possible water source.
After choosing a place, the next step is to discuss it with the person in charge of the farm. (End of this chapter)
