Li Meiling had been listening to the fun beside the two of them, and she could hardly hide the smile on her face.

Although she couldn't stand Jiang Wanwan's temper as a spoiled daughter, she couldn't stand Qiao Wenwan's nature of taking advantage of others.

In the past, the two of them were so close that they could wear the same pants. No matter how Qiao Wenwan took advantage of Jiang Wanwan, the person involved was happy and others could only envy her. Now that they have fallen out, she is happy to watch the fun.

She nudged the people around her and said, "Wen Nuan, I really feel sorry for you. Although your family is poor, you came to the countryside for your friends. Now your friends have betrayed you, and it seems that Du Zhiqing doesn't like you anymore. If I were you, I would be so angry that I would hang myself on a tree with a rope. What's the point of explaining so much to them?"

Qiao Wenwan forced a smile and said, "Brother Jiaming is not that kind of person. He is just angry with Wanwan."

"In my opinion, Du Zhiqing has Jiang Wanwan in his heart. Without Jiang Wanwan, he would have lost his life as a young master. Life in the countryside is so hard that Feng Zhiqing would marry a peasant just to do less work. How could Du Zhiqing be willing to give up Jiang Wanwan? It's useless for you to say anything now. That's a matter between the two of them. If you interfere, it will only make things worse. Instead of wasting time, you should think about how to earn a few more work points and live a better life."

Qiao Wenwan gritted her teeth secretly. No matter how many work points she earned, what kind of life could she live? Only when she got Du Jiaming could she have a good life.

However, Li Meiling's words also reminded her.

Jiang Wanwan, Lu Xiao and his group followed the team leader Wang Dazhuang to the plot of land they were responsible for. The team leader had said everything that needed to be said. Except for Jiang Wanwan, this was not the first time for everyone else to do this job. When they arrived at the edge of the field, they put down their things and prepared to go in.

Jiang Wanwan put on her headscarf and gloves. She saw that the others were all skilled workers. Except for the men, most of the women were wearing scarves.

In the morning, the only job is to pick corn. Men and women work together. After the corn is picked, it is placed in piles on the ground, a few meters apart. When the afternoon starts, only the women pick corn, and the men have to cut the stalks that have been used to pick the corn.

The cut corn stalks are bundled and can be used to feed livestock or distributed to members for burning.

Cutting the corn stalks also makes it easier to load the corn into the truck. The broken corn cannot be left in the field overnight.

Their team consists of more than 20 people. Starting from the edge of the field, each person is responsible for two rows and moves forward in parallel.

Jiang Wanwan was next to Lu Xiao and also had to take care of two rows of corn. After all, it was her first time doing it, and she was soon left far behind by others.

There was silence all around, with only the occasional rustling sound of the wind blowing through the cornfield. Jiang Wanwan suddenly felt a little scared. She seemed to have not seen anyone for a while. The corns were more than one meter tall all around her. If they were not arranged in rows, she would have no idea of ​​the direction.

The sun rose, and the smell of corn stalks mixed with the hot and humid air made people feel more depressed and their hearts beat faster.

There was a rustling sound coming from the pile of corn in front. Jiang Wanwan swallowed hard, bravely broke off a corn and threw it over. A vole jumped out, scaring her so much that she almost screamed.

She looked around. What else could there be in the field besides field mice? Could there be snakes? She was terrified of snakes.

Just as she was wondering whether she should go find Lu Xiao first, she heard some movement up ahead. She called out cautiously, "Lu Xiao?"

"It's me," As he spoke, the man's figure gradually appeared in front of her. He walked towards her while breaking corn and taking care of four rows at the same time.

Jiang Wanwan let out a long breath, stopped working, and sat down on the ground. Her hands were sore, so she took off her gloves and rubbed her fingers.

This was the first time she had done this job in her two lives. It looked simple, but it was really tiring.

"Tired?"

A man's voice sounded from above her head. Jiang Wanwan raised her hand to let him see, "My hand is sore."

Only then did she realize that the man wasn't wearing the gloves she gave him. "Where are your gloves?"

Lu Xiao grasped her small hand, and gently stroked the back of her hand with his rough fingertips, "I don't need that, keep it for you."

It was the first time that he took the initiative to shake her hand. Jiang Wanwan glanced around and smiled secretly. This man, since there was no one around and they were in the cornfield, so he got bolder?

His hands were big and rough, and the fingertips looked even rougher after working. Turning them over and looking carefully, the palms were covered with calluses. They were a pair of weathered hands, and it was obvious that the owner had suffered a lot.

"What do you mean, we're all made of flesh, so it's bound to get scratched, okay?" She saw a small cut on his index finger near the base of his thumb. "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Lu Xiao pulled her up from the ground and let her sit on the corn pile. "The ground is cold. Wait here for a while. I'll break those two rows and we'll move forward together."

When he came over just now, he only broke off Jiang Wanwan's two lines and the two lines next to them, and his two lines were still missing.

Jiang Wanwan took out a piece of White Rabbit candy from her bag, peeled off the candy wrapper and stuffed it into his mouth. "Then hurry up, I'm scared to be alone."

Her eyes were full of attachment, and Lu Xiao felt even sweeter in his heart than in his mouth. He raised his hand and pressed the top of her head, "Yeah."

He used to often hear people say that working together as a man and a woman is not tiring. He felt that with her around, he wouldn't feel tired at all even if she didn't work.

But he was wrong. He only thought about breaking the end quickly so that he could come back to pick her up, but he forgot that she would be scared if he left her alone behind.

When Lu Xiao thought of her little eyes, his heart felt warm and his hands moved faster.

When most people turned back, they saw Lu Xiao coming back again. His speed was simply inhumane.

Li Cuifen, who was not far away, watched the muscles in the man's arms bulge with his movements, and his toned waist and legs were full of power with every step, her eyes almost popping out.
