Chapter 14 The Iron Coffin

After Mrs. Zhang left, Wang San could no longer hold back his excitement and threw Hua Jiu Nan high into the air and then caught it in his hand.

Repeated several times, laughing excitedly:

"Xiaojiu is amazing, I didn't hurt you in vain!"

"I'll take you to catch toads tomorrow!"

Hua Jiunan, who was thrown into the air, suddenly saw the woman in red floating outside the courtyard through the dim moonlight.

She seemed to be afraid of something and didn't dare to get too close.

A pair of white eyes stared greedily at the baby in the room.

Hua Jiunan greeted loudly:

"Sister, what are you doing? Why don't you come in and play for a while!"

The deaf mother-in-law frowned: "Xiaojiu, who are you talking to?!"

"That's the sister I saw before. She's outside our house."

When Uncle Li and the deaf mother-in-law chased him out, they saw nothing.

There were not even any footprints on the pure white snow.

The two elders no longer doubt that Hua Jiugong was wrong.

"The dirty things are quite evil. They actually come to my door again and again."

"You have to teach her a lesson!"

The deaf mother-in-law went straight to the side room, took out three sticks of incense and lit them.

"Please return to the Immortal Family of Ditang to show your spirit and help your disciple find out where the dirty things are!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the three sticks of incense burned rapidly and turned into ashes in a few seconds.

This is when the Xian family accepted the deaf mother-in-law's request and accepted her offering.

After a while, it looked like someone was writing on the incense table with their hands dipped in incense ashes.

Three combined earth, iron coffin.

When black water comes out, life is 300.

Just when the deaf mother-in-law was shocked, another line of words appeared on the incense table.

Everyone sweeps the snow in front of their own door, and don't worry about the frost on other people's tiles.

The deaf mother-in-law was sweating coldly when she saw it, and quickly wiped away the writing with her hands.

"Hey, why are the things that have happened in the past few years getting more and more evil than the last?"

"Now the iron coffins are out!"

"Even the Immortal Family advised me not to meddle in other people's business, so what should I do?"

After everyone went to bed, the uneasy deaf mother-in-law came to the courtyard by herself.

He walked straight to the planted pine branches and placed three plates of vegetarian dishes.

"Song Lao, there is something dirty in the village, and it's because it climbed out of the iron coffin."

"What should we do with this little girl? We can't watch her harm others!"

After a long time, the pine branches just swayed gently in the wind without any reaction.

The deaf mother-in-law sighed helplessly.

"Song Lao, you don't want me to meddle in other people's business, right?"

Back in the house, the kind-hearted deaf mother-in-law tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

It wasn't until dawn, when Uncle Li came over for dinner, that she quietly told the story.

Uncle Li looked solemn:

"If it doesn't work, I'll bring a few strong laborers from the village to seal the dry well!"

The deaf mother-in-law’s eyes lit up, this is a solution!

But before the two elders could take action, the roar of machines suddenly came from outside.

A child passing by the door ran and shouted:

"Come and watch the fun. The fourth man's house in the south of the village is digging a well!"

"We also hired someone from the town to bring the machine."

"That machine is the boss!"

The two elders exclaimed in unison: No!

Not caring about eating, he put on his cotton clothes and ran outside.

When Tian Laosi's family saw Uncle Li and the deaf mother-in-law, they still respected them very much.

Even his eldest son Tian Zhigang, who works in the town, is the same.

"Second elders are here, come inside and warm yourself up."

The deaf mother-in-law had no time to go into the house and asked:

"Zhigang, what are you doing?"

Tian Zhigang looked proud:

"I asked the town to send someone to dig the old well again, and we brought in all the machines."

“It’s convenient for everyone to get water.”

What Tian Zhigang said is true.

There are only two wells in the entire Jiudaogou Village, and one is a few miles outside the village.

It is very inconvenient for everyone to use water.

It would be a good thing for the villagers if they could have one more mouthful.

Therefore, half of the village came to watch the fun with great joy.

The deaf mother-in-law hesitated for a moment and was about to say something, but Uncle Li stopped her with his eyes.

The old man took a puff from his pipe and said with a smile:

"The government cares about our people, and we cannot mistreat our comrades who come to work."

"Zhigang, come back with me and bring me the wild rabbit I shot yesterday."

"Besides, I also saved some white flour, let's bring it together."

"Give the comrades who come to work something good to eat in the evening!"

In this difficult period, it is a great thing to be able to eat white flour.

Not to mention the meat!

Therefore, Tian Zhigang and Xiao Zhao, who was sent to dig the well, kept thanking Uncle Li.

Xiao Zhao also said:

I will definitely work harder and strive to produce water tomorrow!

When only the second elder and Hua Jiunan were left at home, the deaf mother-in-law finally couldn't help but speak:

"Damn old man, why didn't you let me stop them just now?"

Uncle Li took a deep breath from his pipe:

"Can you stop it?"

“I didn’t see anyone from the town government coming with machines!”

"If you dare not allow wells to be dug, at a small level this is feudal superstition; at a large scale it is sabotaging revolutionary production and construction!"

"You old woman can't afford this!"

Uncle Li paused for a moment before continuing:

"Besides, we can't be sure that the iron coffin is in the well."

"If we make a mistake, won't we delay our fellow villagers' drinking water?"

The deaf mother-in-law was helpless:

"Then what do you think we should do about this matter?"

Uncle Li glared:

"What can I do, cold salad!"

"The old man can't believe how powerful the dirty things are and how they can block my sword?!"

"It's okay if she doesn't come out to cause harm to others, but if she dares to come out, I'll chop her head off with a knife!"

The deaf mother-in-law doesn’t want to argue with Uncle Li:

"Okay, okay, you, Old Man Li, are the best!"

"Hey, that's what I say, but we have to make preparations in advance."
