"Uncle, Aunt, take a rest, we'll help you with the work for a while," one of the young men said enthusiastically, while the other young man also had a friendly smile on his face.

Mr. and Mrs. Luo were both stunned.

What's going on here?

Some villagers even volunteered to come and help them with their work!

They are considered "black five categories" elements. Ordinary villagers are already being kind by not hitting or scolding them or throwing things at them, let alone helping them with their work.

Is the sun rising in the west?

Or is the Earth rotating in the opposite direction?

Or maybe these two people in front of me have something wrong with their brains?

That's what Mr. Luo was thinking.

“Young men, we’re not tired, we can manage. You should go home and rest after you finish work. You don’t need to help us.”

Mother Luo dared not give up the hoe, she would never give it up no matter what, she held onto the hoe with all her might.

She was afraid that the two men were deliberately teasing them, and that once they let go and let the two men do the work for them, the two men would accuse her of oppressing the poor. They already had a heavy burden on their shoulders, and they couldn't afford to add to it.

Father Luo gripped his hoe handle tightly, refusing to let go. "No, no, I just won't give it to you!"

He gave Luo's mother a wink, as if to say, "Hold on! You must hold on! We absolutely cannot give up the hoe!"

“Young men, we won’t trouble you. We can do our own work.”

So, the couple and the two young men formed a duo to fight over the hoe in the sunset. Because Mr. and Mrs. Luo were determined not to let go, a stalemate ensued, with both sides saying, "You want it, but I won't give it to you, and you still insist on having it."

Seeing that Mr. and Mrs. Luo looked very nervous, the two men knew that Mr. and Mrs. Luo must not believe them, thinking that they only had hostility towards them, the "Five Black Categories," and not any goodwill.

One of them, a man with a buzz cut, said, “Uncle, Aunt, please don’t misunderstand. We really just want to help you with some work. We don’t mean anything by it. We know you are Luo Zhiqing’s parents, and we want to repay Luo Zhiqing. He didn’t want anything we offered. So, let us help you with some work.”

Mr. and Mrs. Luo were both startled. If the people here knew about their relationship with Luo Jingyan and Luo Changtian, it would be detrimental to the children.

"No, no, no, we have nothing to do with the educated youth here. Those are just rumors," Mr. Luo denied.

What if these two are deliberately bluffing them, trying to trick them into admitting their relationship with Luo Jingyan?

In chaotic times, people's hearts are unpredictable, so we must be wary.

Mother Luo nodded in agreement: "You've got it wrong. How could we have anything to do with them? I don't know who you've been listening to. It's completely untrue. I... we don't even know who this Luo Zhiqing you're talking about is."

We cannot admit it!

Absolutely not!

I absolutely refuse to admit it!!!

The two men suppressed a laugh upon hearing this. The man with the crew cut said, "Uncle, Aunt, you don't need to hide it anymore. You look a lot like Luo Zhiqing. People have seen Luo Zhiqing visiting you often. We genuinely want to help you with some work, so you don't need to be afraid. If you act like this, it'll seem like we came here but didn't help you, and even frightened you. We'll feel bad about that."

Mr. and Mrs. Luo looked at the two men, and they didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards them.

Do you really want to help them?

Why?

These two people just said they wanted to repay their daughter by helping them with chores.

what is going on?

The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

The man with the crew cut said, "Uncle, Aunt, I know your concerns. We really have no bad intentions towards you. Heaven and earth can bear witness. If I weren't sincere, I'd go three days without food. The people in our village only just found out about your relationship with Luo Zhiqing. If we had known earlier, we would have come to help you with the work sooner."

Hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Luo knew that their family's secret could no longer be kept hidden.

However, they still did not directly acknowledge their relationship with Luo Jingyan and Luo Changtian.

Mr. Luo asked the man with the crew cut, "Why are you two helping us with the work? What did you mean by 'repayment'?"

The two farmers were stunned for a moment.

"Uncle, Aunt, don't you know how much Luo Zhiqing has contributed to our village? Hasn't Luo Zhiqing ever mentioned it to you?"

The two men shook their heads in unison; their daughter had never told them anything about what she had done for the village.

"I thought Jingyan just worked in the fields every day. What contributions has she actually made? Our daughter hasn't told us anything," asked Mr. Luo.

"Oh, Luo Zhiqing didn't tell you about this big thing at all. Because our brigade is rich in sweet sorghum, and Luo Zhiqing is an expert in brewing techniques, she came here last year and took a liking to the sorghum here. She wanted to use sweet sorghum to brew wine and lead the whole village to get rich. She's been brewing for two or three months now and has made a lot of money for the village. Of course, those of us who participated in the collective winery also get dividends. If it weren't for Luo Zhiqing, the sorghum we grow in our village wouldn't sell for much money at all."

When Luo's parents heard his words, they realized that their daughter had done such a great thing for the village, but she had never mentioned it to them.

However, there is still one question: when did their daughter learn to brew wine?

While they were still in a daze, two young men snatched the hoes from their hands and helped them cultivate the wasteland.

An hour later, the work was almost finished. The two men left, and Mr. and Mrs. Luo prepared to finish their work. They wanted to find the team leader to check the quality of their work before determining their work points.
