Back to the 70s: The Delicate Young Educated Youth Goes Crazy Online

In her previous life, Xu Miaomiao was sensitive and thoughtful. She was misled by her stepsister, a white lotus, causing her to become estranged from her family. She was also manipulated by her ste...

Chapter 16 I May Not Be Cut Out for Work

The next morning, the newly arrived educated youth were going to work in the fields with everyone else. Xu Miaomiao had experience from her previous life, so she took out the alarm clock from the villa.

When the alarm clock rang at five in the morning, she got up happily. When she went out to wash up, she saw that only Lin Fang and two male educated youth were in the yard.

Lin Fang was slightly surprised to see Xu Miaomiao, "Why are you up so early?"

Xu Miaomiao had a good relationship with Lin Fang in her previous life, so she smiled at her with a smile on her face. "I heard that you have to go to the fields early this morning, and I'm afraid I'll be late."

After washing up, Xu Miaomiao went back to the house and changed into a long-sleeved shirt, put on a thick coat, and wore black cotton pants.

To prevent her hair from getting in the way while working in the fields, she tied it into a high ponytail. Since the Northeast weather wasn't too hot at that time, Xu Miaomiao simply didn't wear a hat and just applied sunscreen.

I ate a big bun for breakfast, then thought I was hungry, so I took out two pieces of chocolate and put them in my pocket.

The Chen family was also having breakfast here. Wang Yan called them a few times, but Chen Chen said he didn't want to eat anymore.

The remaining few people gathered at a table to eat breakfast, which was just a large bowl of cornmeal porridge and two plates of pickles.

At this time, every household ate these things, and some families could not even get enough to eat with these things.

At the dinner table, Chen Chen's second sister-in-law kept winking at his second brother. Chen's second brother saw it, but didn't dare to say anything. He simply turned around and drank porridge, pretending not to see it.

Zhou Lanhua stepped hard on her husband, calling him a useless thing, and then looked at her mother-in-law Wang Yan with a smile on her face.

"Mom, my brother-in-law isn't going to eat today? How can he have the energy to work if he doesn't eat?"

After hearing this, Wang Yan's face fell. She understood what her second daughter-in-law meant. She was dissatisfied with her third son for not going to the fields to work!

"San'er's leg hasn't healed yet, so he can't work and needs to be taken care of." Although Wang Yan was unhappy, she didn't get angry directly. Unfortunately, Zhou Lanhua was a tactless person.

"My brother-in-law has been raising me for over three months, and I still have to take care of him..."

"Bang!" Before she could finish her words, Wang Yan threw her chopsticks on the table, scaring everyone at the table, both adults and children, to stop what they were doing.

"What? Are you trying to say that San'er's leg won't heal, and you're at a disadvantage if he doesn't work in the fields and eats with us?"

What Wang Yan said was really heartbreaking. Everyone knew that the Chen family could build a big brick and tile house and have enough food to eat, all thanks to the allowances that the third brother brought in over the years.

After hearing this, the eldest and his wife immediately shook their heads like rattles.

The eldest brother, Chen Jin, quickly expressed his opinion, "Mom, what are you talking about? Without the support from the third brother, our family would not be able to live the life we ​​have today."

The eldest sister-in-law Wu Sanni also joined in the conversation, "Yes, the third brother should recover his leg first. It's a lifelong matter. With so many people in the family, he is the only one left."

After hearing what the eldest son and his wife said, Wang Yan's face brightened up slightly, but some people still need to be punished, otherwise they will still take the third son's contribution as their due.

"Let me ask you, what has your son eaten, clothed, and housed over the years? Wasn't it all provided by the third child?"

"The little work points you earn have to go towards supporting your parents' family. You two are struggling to even have enough to eat!"

"What's wrong? Seeing that the third brother has been back for a few days, you feel upset! Then you have to spit out everything you spent before!"

"The third brother was injured while on duty. The army gives him a 32 yuan subsidy every month, so he can support himself without working!"

"If you have the ability to get paid, you can go to work if you want. I will take care of you!"

Wang Yan's call made the second-in-command Chen Cong so angry that he almost buried his head under the table.

Zhou Lanhua looked a little embarrassed, but she still forced a smile and said, "Mom, you misunderstood. I didn't mean that. We all remember my brother-in-law's contribution."

Wang Yan stood up and went back to her room without paying any attention to her.

When they gathered at the threshing ground, Xu Miaomiao could feel that many people were looking at her.

Everyone in the team knew that there was a new educated youth, but they had not seen him yet. Now they were all gathered in the threshing ground, and naturally they all wanted to see whether the new educated youth was good-looking or not.

I am familiar with everyone in the team of old educated youth, and this time I will mainly focus on the new ones.

Zhao Sumei's facial features are not outstanding, especially her prominent cheekbones, which give people a harsh feeling, but her skin color is relatively fair compared to the girls in the team.

Bai Lili is tall but thin. Although her skin is a healthy wheat color, her facial features are delicate and very attractive.

But the most outstanding person in the crowd was Xu Miaomiao, with a skin as white as porcelain that seemed to glow in the sunlight.

She has willow-shaped eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, a high nose bridge, and naturally smiling lips, with two dimples when she smiles.

She is petite but has a well-proportioned figure, wears a high ponytail, and looks full of energy.

Most people in the threshing ground were looking at her. Wow, a little fairy must have come here!

On the first day Xu Miaomiao appeared, most of the single young men in Hexi Brigade were moved by love.

Chen Jianghe assigned today's work, and only a few newly arrived educated youth were left.

Because they were first-time mountain workers, the tasks assigned to them were relatively easy.

The men went to the fields to work with the old educated youth, and the three female educated youth were assigned to pull weeds.

Because Director Mu had already made arrangements, the piece of land that Chen Jianghe allocated to Xu Miaomiao was very small, and any child in the team could finish it in one day.

Xu Miaomiao was still full of confidence when she arrived at the field. After all, she had spent more than ten years here in her previous life.

This is a potato field. The potato seedlings are just a dozen centimeters tall, but the grass in the field is already very lush.

Xu Miaomiao looked at Zhao Sumei and Bai Lili who were at a loss in the distance, and felt secretly proud in her heart.

She is much better than them. At least she knows which are crops and which are weeds, and she will never make a mistake.

But Xu Miaomiao soon realized that she had really overestimated her current body as a young lady.

For the first eighteen years, I had done absolutely no work, and the most I handled was a pen. Even with work gloves on, my palms would be red and sore within half an hour.

Looking back, I realized that in half an hour, I had only moved forward two meters at a snail's pace and had only pulled out a small pile of grass.

Xu Miaomiao looked up at the sky, sighed deeply, and sat down on the ground in self-abandonment.

Maybe she really isn't cut out for work!

Forget it. She has no shortage of money or food this time, so there is no need to work so hard. Just do as much as she can.

After figuring it out, Xu Miaomiao no longer thought about working quickly and performing well, and just let things go.

After a whole morning, she had only done a quarter of the work on her field, and she definitely wouldn't be able to finish it today.
