He walked straight over, threw the small bucket on the well's edge down into it, and hauled up water, pouring it into a clean bucket beside it. After filling two buckets, he didn't use a shoulder pole but picked up a bucket in each hand and headed to the kitchen to pour the water into the water tank.
