    At this time, it was past noon, and the sun was hanging high in the sky.  But because the well has been dug deep, nothing can be seen at the bottom of the well, and it is all illuminated by an oil lamp brought down the well.  Zhang Xiaohua's face showed no determination in the flickering light. He thought for a moment, then raised his hoe and dug in one direction, "Dang, Dang" The sound continued, and he changed several directions, but also  The same is true, how can this be done.  It seems that it is really the end of the mountain.

    Zhang Xiaohua wanted to give up a little bit, so let's go up first, and wait a while to expand the mouth of the well, and then take a look.  But my mother hasn't delivered the food yet, why don't I dig it from the bottom first?  After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaohua didn't stop, and then from the waist-deep place in front of her, she found a direction and dug there.  While digging, she suddenly heard another "bang" sound, and Xiaohua couldn't help being startled, was it another stone?  But then there was another hoe, but there was no sound.  Zhang Xiaohua was surprised, but she didn't think much about it, maybe it was a small stone, as long as it wasn't a big stone.  After digging about one step forward, Zhang Xiaohua tried to dig down again, expecting in her heart not to hear any annoying voices, but in the end he was not much comforted, the stone was also under the step in this direction.

    Just when Zhang Xiaohua was about to take a rest and change direction again, Zhang Xiaolong's voice came from above, "Xiaohua, come up to eat quickly, mother is here to bring food." Zhang Xiaohua was pulled up from the well by the elder brother, looked at  Zhang Xiaohua's face, Zhang Xiaolong didn't ask any more questions, just brought him food and watched him gobble it up.  Then he said consolingly, "It's okay, Xiaohua, this place is not good, should we go to another place, the hillside is so big, there must be a place where we can dig a well."

    After eating, Zhang Xiaohua's face obviously improved a lot, and she seemed no longer gloomy. Seeing the well digger go down the well, she smiled and said to Zhang Xiaolong: "I see, brother, I'll go up to the field to have a look.  Come again." Zhang Xiaolong patted Zhang Xiaohua on the shoulder, without saying anything, walked away with an empty bamboo basket.

    Zhang Xiaohua walked up the hillside with her hoe on her shoulders and came to the edge of her decent field. She put the hoe aside and sat on the ground by herself, looking helplessly at the land that could not be watered, thinking  Do you want to carry water from the river by yourself in the future?  When his eyes fell on the hoe, he found that there was a piece of mud on the hoe, which was probably brought up when he was digging underground just now.  Zhang Xiaohua rubbed her foot on the hoe, but it didn't come off.  He brought the hoe over, cleaned the mud with his hands, and found that there was a round thing on the hoe, and it was still stuck tightly. Zhang Xiaohua tilted her head and thought for a while, probably when she was digging in the well just now, that  The sound of "boom" is the sound of the hoe digging into the ring.  No wonder there was no sound anymore, it turned out that the quilt was put on the hoe.  Zhang Xiaohua wanted to get the ring off the hoe, but she tried to pry it with a branch, and tapped it lightly on a stone, but it didn't work.  If you knock it hard on the stone, you may be able to get it off, but there is no guarantee that it will not be broken.  You can't go down the well to dig soil with this thing, Zhang Xiaohua is a little helpless again.  In the end, Zhang Xiaohua made up her mind, raised the hoe with half her strength and knocked it on the stone, and heard a "bang", the ring was not broken, and the hoe didn't come off.  It was also Zhang Xiaohua who exerted all her strength, knocked it down several times, and finally got it off. The inexplicable ring was not broken, and it seemed to be very strong.

    Zhang Xiaohua picked up the ring and wiped off the dirt on it with her clothes. Then she saw clearly that it should be a bracelet, about two fingers wide, pitch-black, without patterns, flat, and I don't know what material it is made of.  into.  Zhang Xiaohua was waiting to take a closer look, when she heard Zhang Xiaolong's joyful voice from down the slope; "Xiaohua, come quickly, there is something to look forward to." Zhang Xiaohua jumped up happily after hearing this, and didn't bother to look at this pick-up again.  He carried the bracelet in his arms, picked up the hoe and slipped down the hillside, not noticing the lightness when he was holding the bracelet just now.

    When Zhang Xiaohua ran to the bottom of the slope, what she saw were the smiles on the faces of Zhang Xiaolong and Zhang Xiaohu, and Zhang Cai's slightly bitter face.  Hearing what Zhang Xiaolong said, he realized that the bottom of the well is not a layer of stones, and the stones are not too big, as long as the mouth of the well is enlarged, the stones can be removed, but the length of this expansion is at least three steps.  The larger the wellhead, the greater the amount of soil to be dug. Of course, it will take a long time, and the money for others will also be more.  However, fortunately, there is no need to re-select a place, re-open the well, and no need to carry water to irrigate the ground, which can be regarded as a good result.  Seeing the happy faces of the three children, Zhang Cai was the only one who was secretly worried. He hoped that such stones would not appear again in the future. If there were so many times, the well might not need to be dug again.

    The work in the afternoon was simple. The well diggers re-measured the wellhead according to the size of the rocks, planned how to expand it, and dug the soil again.  After such a small disturbance, everyone started working in an orderly manner.

    Back home at night, after dinner, before going to bed on the kang, Zhang Xiaohua didn't even think of her arms.Is there water?  "

    "You just want to get out of the water soon, something more evil than getting out of the water!" Guo Sufei said angrily.

    "Hey, what is that?" Not only was Zhang Cai attracted, but the curiosity of the three brothers of the Zhang family was also aroused.

    "They dug a well and dug out a small broken box!" Guo Sufei went on to say, "When the box was dug out of the well, it was broken by a hoe, revealing the contents inside. Although it was covered with mud, it could still be seen clearly.  The pearl and agate inside! Tell me, why didn¡¯t we have such good luck, we hit a broken stone the size of a bed earlier than they did.¡±

    Just when the family was mourning for the fortune of Mr. Wu's family, Zhang Xiaohua remembered what she also dug out of the well.  He said excitedly, "Father, mother, I also dug out the treasure from the well." Under the urging and eager eyes of his family, he took out the forgotten bracelet from under the quilt.

    Zhang Cai took it, took it under the oil lamp and looked at it carefully, and saw that it was a black, flat thing made of unknown material. It is more appropriate to call it an iron ring than a bracelet.  He couldn't see why, so he handed it to Guo Sufei. Guo Sufei took it, weighed it first, rubbed it with his fingers for a while, and said, "It's so light, it doesn't look like it's made of jade, and there are no patterns. I guess it's nothing."  Jewelry. It looks like something from a child's house, Xiaohua, you can play with it." Zhang Xiaohua took it in a moody manner, and handed it to the two brothers, as if it was his fault that he didn't dig out the pearl and agate.

    The bracelet was twirled in the hands of the two elder brothers, and then passed to Zhang Xiaohua. It seemed that no one was very interested in this ugly thing, so Xiaohua had no choice but to put it in her arms again.

    Guo Sufei went on to say: "Well, if it's really a good piece of jewelry, I might consider keeping it as a betrothal gift when I match your elder brother in spring."

    This time, the family's emotions were ignited again.  After the beginning of spring, Zhang Xiaolong will be in his twenties, and it's time to find a girl to settle down.  Based on their own impressions, the family began to argue with Zhang Xiaolong one by one.  When the oil lamp was extinguished, the whole family was still full of thoughts, but for tomorrow's well digging and farm work, they all had to sleep on the kang.

    Before going to bed, Zhang Xiaohua took out the bracelet from her bosom, and was about to put it under the quilt again, but then she thought again, what Mr. Wu dug up from the ground was a treasure, and mine was also a treasure, so I had to keep it well  .  But where to put it?  After thinking for a while, he put the bracelet on his wrist. What a coincidence, it fit snugly against his wrist. When he waved his arm, the bracelet wouldn't slide up and down.  Zhang Xiaohua was secretly delighted, this was simply tailor-made for him.

    Until he fell asleep, he didn't think about how he would slip through his wrist if it fit so well with no gaps.  Not to mention that the pork belly in his dream every night is long gone, only the infinite flickering in his mind.
