Chapter 42 It's not convenient to listen with water
Fortunately, she had a shopping mall. She thought there was no other place in the world that had as many materials as her shopping mall.
"Mom, why don't you do anything?"
After the two little guys came in, they saw that their mother was motionless, as if she suddenly didn't know what to do.
In fact, Ding Xiang was thinking of an excuse to trick these two guys out.
Just kidding, how could she go shopping in the mall with the two of them around?
By the way, both glutinous rice and japonica rice need to be ground into powder.
"Zhenzhen Sangua, let's take out the millstone at home and clean it with your elder brother. Mom will use it later." Isn't this a ready excuse? Ding Xiang didn't blush or breath when she spoke.
After the two little guys went out, Ding Xiang quickly closed the kitchen door, and then quickly opened the mall interface. Without having time to check the price, she bought ten pounds of japonica rice and one pound of red yeast rice in one go.
The whole process was so fast, just like a thief, as she was afraid that someone from outside would suddenly break in and see her retrieving something from the air.
If that were true, it would frighten these little guys.
If not, he might be regarded as a monster and be beaten and killed by the villagers and put on a cross.
Stop, stop, think a little too much.
Looking at the purse that was not too flat, Ding Xiang nodded with satisfaction. As expected, things in the mall were cheap.
But it was this red yeast song. Ding Xiang stared at the red yeast song in her hand thoughtfully.
If there is no red yeast in this place, it can be used as the secret ingredient of this winning cake.
Of course, red yeast rice is not without alternatives, but in the most original formula, red yeast rice is the best.
Ding Xiang took out two pounds of japonica rice and one pound and two ounces of glutinous rice, and went to the yard to wash them.
The water tank has just been filled, and the work of carrying water at home basically belongs to Ergua.
People in Linjia Village will go to the big well in the east of the village to fetch water early in the morning. This has been the case for generations.
It is said that apart from the large well in the east of the village, there is also one in Li Zheng's house, but there is no one else.
Drilling a well requires manpower (in fact, this is not a problem, a strong man can do it), and the location of the water source (this is the key to the problem).
You should know that groundwater is not available everywhere, so wells cannot be drilled everywhere.
After just washing rice a few times, one-fifth of the water in a large tank was used up.
If business gets better and better in the future, water consumption will definitely become more severe, and carrying water will be a troublesome thing.
Thinking of this troublesome matter, Lilac missed modern tap water very much.
He couldn't help but muttered: "It would be great if our house also had a well. It would be too inconvenient to go back and forth every day to fetch water."
"Actually, someone came to see us in the early years. There was a water source under our house." At this time, Lin Dagua suddenly walked up to Ding Xiang.
When Ding Xiang heard this, she became energetic and asked, "Then why don't you dig it?"
"You forgot, we dug, but we didn't see any water even when we dug very deep. I don't know if that person made a mistake at the beginning." When mentioning this, Lin Dagua lowered his head again.
He also wanted to have a well at home, so that water for daily life would be much more convenient.
It's rare that the old master said there is underground water at home, which is good news.
Unfortunately, after digging for more than ten meters, there was no splash at all. It was a waste of effort.
After Ding Xiang repeatedly confirmed that the speaker was an experienced groundwater surveyor, she immediately guessed what was going on.
It should be that the digging is not deep enough, and some underground water is very deep.
"Brother, there is a girl you don't know looking for you. She is waiting outside the yard."
Mother and son had a rare good atmosphere. While they were talking, Ergua suddenly came over.
Ding Xiang didn't think much about it. In her heart, although Dagua was her eldest son, he was only sixteen years old.
In her eyes, she is still a child, so it is naturally impossible for her to think about love between men and women.
She forgot that this is ancient times, and there are many men and women who get married at the age of fifteen.
Her eldest son is sixteen years old and has not yet gotten married in the countryside. In the eyes of others, he is already an older leftover man.
Speaking of Lin Dagua's marriage, people in the village had to complain that Ding Xiang, a mother-in-law, was too unreliable.
Other mothers have already made plans to support their families and save money for their sons to get married.
But the original owner, the mother, only knew that she was happy and didn't care about her children at all.
Therefore, in the eyes of the villagers, their family is not only poor, but the most terrifying thing is that they also have an old woman who is lazy and inconsiderate to her children.
No girl from a good family would be willing to marry into such a family.
There are only some people from other villages who don't know the situation. They may be confused by Lin Dagua's good looks.
But if you ask around casually, you will almost always give up the idea of marrying a girl.
For Lin Dagua's marriage, Mrs. Lin did not know how many matchmakers she had entrusted.
