"Get lost! You're spouting nonsense!" Sheng An was livid, glaring at Qin Cuifen., "It's all your fault, you must be the one behind this. It's all lies, all lies!"
In an instant, the scene erupted into chaos, Xu Laidi shouted with all her might, "Everyone come quick! Sheng Ning actually did such a disgraceful thing, what a shame!"
As Xu Laidi yelled, just when she felt good about her vocal tirade, a big mass of dark, murky stuff splashed in her face. The others panicked and dodged to the side, and by the time Xu Laodi realized what it was, she had already been drenched from head to toe.
She opened her mouth wide, and some of the liquid splashed directly into her mouth.
It was manure water.
In the rural areas of the 1980s, chemical fertilizers weren't yet popular. Every household would dig a pit behind their toilets and, come wintertime, carry the manure water out to irrigate the fields.
This way, the next year's crops were sure to yield a good harvest.
