Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20: Waterway

Lu Jueyu looked around and when she saw no one, she collected the berry bushes. When a wild berries bush enters her space, it's registered as a seed in her store, and the shrub is planted in the field. As for the ripened fruits, they are harvested and stored in the warehouse.

Along the way, she collected several fruit trees. She even found some trees that produced edible nuts and seeds. While she was excited by her discovery, she couldn't help but marvel at the author's randomness. She found mushrooms and trees that couldn't grow in winter, but they thrived.

The farther she went into the mountains, the more food she found. She found not only fruits and mushrooms, but even vegetables and staple foods. As she collected these things, she kept drawing a map of the mountain in her mind. She also wanted to use bamboo water pipes to get mountain spring water for Li Chenmo.

Three hours later, she left the mountain and returned home. When she walked into the front yard, she saw that her brothers had already cleaned up the bamboo. Looking at the bamboo pole, she was satisfied. The diameter of the stem is about fifteen centimeters, which is enough for water to flow smoothly.

Seeing Lu Jueyu come back, Lu Han said, "Jueyu, we have cleaned up the leaves. Now we can start making water pipes."

"Okay, I'll put the jar and basket in the kitchen first." Lu Jueyu said as she walked towards the kitchen.

When she came back, she brought some charcoal. She marked the bamboo with it and told her brother to cut it according to her markings. Instead of splitting the bamboo in half, she made a hole in the bamboo and cleared the bamboo inside the segment part. In this way, the bamboo can be used as a water pipe. Before going to the mountain spring site, they prepared 40 bamboo water pipes.

Her brothers are so strong that they can hold ten bamboos at once. And her task is to take the hemp rope. When they reached the mountain spring, they used a short piece of bamboo to guide the mountain spring water into the bamboo tube. Afterwards, they used some logs as poles and tied it to the bamboo to hold it in place.

They connected the bamboo one by one until they reached the backyard of Lu's house. A small hole has been dug in the backyard, and river stones have been pasted on the wall to form a small pond. When the last bamboo is tied up, water gushes out from the bamboo and fills the pond in an instant. Excess water flows to the canal that connects to the vegetable fields and the river near their home.

With this design, they don't have to worry about the backyard being flooded, and they don't need to water the vegetable patch anymore. After thinking about it, Lu Jueyu used smaller bamboos to divide the water. Smaller bamboo is attached to the water tank in the backyard. This way, they don't need to manually fill the tank.

When they were done, the sky began to darken. Lu Jueyu looked at her brothers and asked, "Brother, can you help me open another waterway for Brother Chenmo's house?"

Lu Han and Lu Cheng thought about it and nodded. After all, their sister would marry that guy and live there.
