Chapter 268: Finally, it's time to settle a major matte

the capital to look for our father"No matter if the father is dead or alive, how he disappeared, this matter, we have to give mother an explanation, after all, she has been waiting for so many years.W...After returning home, Zongyu told everyone that the water channel would be dug to their doorstep tomorrow.

Hearing this good news, the whole family laughed with excitement.

"Great, I can finally see water."

Zong Yulian hurriedly asked, "Then Big Brother, after the canal is dug, can I use water to take a bath"

As a daughter-in-law, she is now so dirty that she smells almost the same as her second brother, it's suffocating.

This was still something she often tried to maintain, despite everything. The women in the village were all rough and dirty now, their faces covered in grime – practically a different color altogether. Thankfully, her sister-in-law had found a way to make sure there was clean water at home.

Otherwise, they wouldn't even be willing to use water for wiping their bodies.

"Okay, we widened the irrigation canal downstream a bit. Unless something unexpected happens, the village shouldn't run out of water for now."

"Tap water is fine for everyday use, but it's not enough to irrigate farmland. We only have enough water to grow some vegetables and maybe a little grain."

"At that time, Village Head Wang will establish rules for the use of water. This water is not available to be drawn home endlessly."

Zong Yulian nodded upon hearing this, "This regulation is good. If it isn't controlled properly, perhaps as soon as the water channel is dug, someone will have it emptied."

Zongyu turned to Fang Jinxiu, "Tomorrow I won't go up the mountain. I'll dig a pond at my front door. When the channels on both sides are connected, I'll have time at home."

“Well then, I guess that's how things are here in the village.”

Since you're all so happy, why don't I make a fish hot pot for everyone today

When it comes to food, Zongbei and Yulian's ears perk up like they have antennas.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, what is hot pot fish"

“Right, where did we get the fish from”

Fang Jinshi, seeing that Mr. Qin was not there, mysteriously beckoned the two of them to follow her into the kitchen.

Of course, good things should be shared with the whole family. Since big silverfish are so delicious, how could she be so shameless to eat them all by herself with Zongyu

Fortunately, all the silver fish caught in the space spring are alive and well.

Tonight we'll slaughter those two big ones and treat the whole family to a feast!

Although they seem to be constantly grinding their teeth, they haven't missed a single meal.

When Dang Fangjin brought out the silver fish from her empty house and placed them before Zongbo and Yulian, both of them were speechless with astonishment.

"So you and your big brother were out so late last night, it turns out you discovered another water source!"

Zong Bai and Yu Lian were incredibly excited, especially Yu Lian. Hearing that her sister-in-law had come back after taking a cool bath, she wished she could immediately ask her elder brother to take her for one too.

"Sister-in-law, I I I also want to take a bath!"

"You wouldn't even believe the smell on me right now, I can barely stand it myself."

Zong Bai sniffed his sister's body and chimed in, "I think it's okay. Compared to the girls in the village, you're pretty clean."

"Don't think I don't know you sneak out of bed in the middle of the night to get water and freshen up. I hear every noise!"

Yu Lian was both angry and annoyed. How could her second brother always find out what she snuck around and did, no matter how hard she tried to hide it from him

"Did you put eyes on me With all that time staring at me, you'd be better off reading a book!"

< Zong Bai smiled with satisfaction, "I just knew it." >

"Don't you worry about my studies, Sister-in-law. You went to so much trouble to keep Mr. Qin here to teach me, I wouldn't dare disappoint your kindness."

Jade Lotus made a face at him. The two little kids were bickering in the kitchen.

Fang Jinxiu saw that the two of them were so free, so she decided to let the two of them cook tonight's dishes. She would still just use her mouth and not her hands.

"Stop it! Do you still want to eat fish If you want, then build a fire and gather some vegetables. Keep this up, and neither of you will get any fish bones!" suffer anymore. I keep my promises."She finished speaking, but there was no response around her. She turned her head and saw that the girl had already fallen asleep.Little Grass ended up living at th...
