"Starting tomorrow, our Ping An Brigade will begin the new year's spring ploughing. You must be on time for work at 7 a.m. No one is allowed to be late, otherwise I will deduct your work points..."

Li Fugui was talking on the stage with saliva flying everywhere, and the team members were sighing below:

"Why do we have to go back to work so soon? We've only had a few days' rest!"

"That's right. If you don't try, it will be spring soon. Life is really hard."

"Oh, it's time to go to work again. It would be great if I could stay at home and still have food to eat."

"You're dreaming. You don't want to work and just lie at home and eat yourself?"

"Alright, alright, stop talking. Didn't you see the captain speaking? What are you all talking about?"

Lu Wensheng and a few others, plus Li Youliang, stood in a row and listened to the team members' complaints without saying a word.

You have to go to work. How will you eat if you don't? These people complain so much in front of the team leader and the village chief. They are just asking for trouble. You can tell they are not smart!

As expected, Li Fugui, who was giving a passionate speech on the stage, was instantly extinguished when he heard the complaints from the audience:

"What are you yelling about? If anyone doesn't want to go to work, just tell me and I promise to let you take a year off. You can do whatever you want!"

The people who were still complaining in the audience immediately shut up after hearing this. They could complain, but they really didn't dare to take a break. Is this a joke? If they took a year off, what would happen to their families? Would they starve?

The audience finally quieted down, and Li Fugui continued his speech, which lasted for two hours before he stopped:

"Okay, let's all go. Go back and do what needs to be done. Go to work on time tomorrow. Remember, no one should be left behind."

After Li Fugui finished speaking, he rushed to the brigade headquarters nearby. Li Youliang poked Lu Hao next to him with interest and whispered:

"Do you know why our captain runs so fast?"

Ma Yingjie glanced at the captain who was rushing forward and said casually: "What else can I do? I'll go to the bathroom."

Li Youliang looked disgusted: "What? He was just going to drink water."

Ma Yingjie: "That's normal. We've been talking for two hours. No one can stand it."

Li Youliang: "..."

On the other side, Meng Qingtang and Han Muchen had been whispering to each other all morning, discussing how to pursue Shen Lingling.

Although they spoke in low voices, who was Lu Wensheng? With the blessing of spiritual power, he could hear it clearly, but this...

I have to say that Meng Qingtang is a really smart guy, and he has all kinds of bad ideas.

What she is struggling with now is whether or not to tell Lingling the whole story, after all, she is her best friend.

But as the saying goes, it is better to destroy ten temples than to ruin a marriage. Besides, they are the male and female protagonists of the original novel and they are supposed to be together. I should not interfere!

So he pretended not to know and followed Shen Lingling to the pigpen. He just let them do what they wanted. It was their ability to catch up!

"Shengsheng, our uncle said he's going to Ximengou Brigade to breed pigs in a few days, are you going?"

Lu Wensheng nodded: "Okay, let's go together then."

Anyway, as long as she doesn't have to work, she can do anything!

Not long after feeding the pigs, Han Muchen and Meng Qingtang also came. Shen Lingling was a little surprised to see them coming.

Since the weather got warmer, she had basically taken over the job of feeding the pigs. She was a little shocked to see these two people coming in:

"Why are you here?"

Because of Meng Qingtang's instructions, Han Muchen had returned to his usual self and replied:

"We have to go to work tomorrow, so we discussed it and decided to help you clean the pigsty while we are free today."

Shen Lingling subconsciously wanted to refuse, but before she could say anything, Meng Qingtang interrupted her:

"Actually, we both just want to eat braised pork, so we thought of using our labor to exchange for a meal of meat. Shen Zhiqing wouldn't disagree, right?"

Since people said so, Shen Lingling couldn't refuse anymore and could only nod:

"Okay, I'll go back and do it right away. Thank you for your hard work."

After Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling left the pigpen, Han Muchen complained: "There is no meat at home. You are making things difficult for us!"

Meng Qingtang rolled his eyes: "I told you you're stupid and you don't believe me. Didn't Brother Sihai bring a piece of pork belly over yesterday? It's hanging in my woodshed. If you don't eat it, it will go bad."

Han Muchen was dumbfounded...

"Don't just stand there, hurry up! Get the work done first."

“…”

On the way home, Lu Wensheng felt more and more guilty. Should she tell Lingling about the two people's plan?

After thinking it over, he tried to ask: "Ling'er, tell me the truth, do you like Lao Han or not?"

Shen Lingling was thinking about the dishes in her mind, and when she was suddenly asked, she looked a little confused. She wanted to change the question, but when she saw Shengsheng's determination to achieve his goal, she sighed.

He nodded barely audibly and said, "I like it..."

Afraid that Lu Wensheng would say something to comfort him, he said anxiously: "Shengsheng, I didn't mean to keep him hanging on purpose.

It’s just… you know me, I have no other choice now…”

How could Lu Wensheng not understand? After what he had experienced in his previous life, no one could accept another person so quickly. After thinking for a while, he advised:

"I know, but you're not getting married now. If you like her, you should think about it carefully. Don't miss out and regret it later."

Seeing that she was still struggling, I prepared to give her a hard beating:

"Ling'er, you know, there aren't many good men nowadays, especially someone like Lao Han who is simple-minded and has good conditions. There are so many eyes staring at him. If you really like him, you have to settle down before he leaves.

There are so many female soldiers in the army, and there is also an art troupe. I heard that they are all good-looking female comrades. If someone snatches her away, we won’t have anywhere to cry!"

Shen Lingling lowered her head and said nothing, but her fingers were about to tear her clothes. Lu Wensheng also knew that this matter could not be rushed, so he stopped trying to persuade her. Anyway, she had said everything she needed to say.

Besides, Old Han has other plans, so we’ll talk about it when the time comes!

Anyway, these two people like each other, so a little bit of tricks can be considered flirting, right?

Thinking of this, her sense of guilt was much lessened.

After all, everyone is thinking about Lingling's happiness in the second half of her life!
