The rice seedling cultivation work is finally finished. The brigade promised to show a movie when they were laying the power lines, and now it's time to fulfill that promise. The members have been working hard recently, so this is a reward to let them relax.

Early in the morning, Scarface followed Xu Yaozu on his bicycle to the county.

The county's film screenings are managed by the cultural center, and Xu Yaozu had already contacted them, and the cultural center had already arranged the schedule.

As the brigade's designated "diplomat," Scarface was the only one qualified to handle this reception.

The film screening team at the cultural center was a popular group. They frequently traveled around various communes, and everyone who saw them treated them with great courtesy.

The more the projection team moves around, the more lucrative their income becomes; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they account for half of the entire cultural center's revenue.

Therefore, the cultural center's only three-wheeled motorcycle was assigned to them.

Every time the filming crew's three-wheeled motorcycles passed by, they would attract envious glances, and a long line of tails would follow behind them.

In these few days, the educated youth have truly experienced the hardships of being a farmer.

Previously, Xu Xinning had been secretly calculating how many days they could last, but in reality, some people didn't even last a single day.

Yang Chunqin knew that the educated youth might not be able to do farm work. Looking at them, Yang Chunqin would automatically put herself in Xu Xinning's shoes. She felt really uncomfortable if her precious daughter had to work in the fields like an old ox for a living. So she specifically instructed the team leader to take care of them.

The squad leaders verbally agreed, but in their hearts they didn't quite agree, secretly complaining that women were just too soft-hearted.

The first task assigned to the educated youth on their first day of work was to pull weeds.

This job was the easiest in the brigade. Work points were calculated at six points. If you did the job well and quickly, you could get more work points, and with more work points, you would naturally get more work points.

When the educated youth first arrived at the fields, they were all excited and thought that doing farm work was nothing special. They thought that it was nothing to do ten work points a day.

But less than an hour later, their feelings changed. Their hands hurt, their backs ached, their eyes were blurry, and they felt dizzy...

The person guiding the educated youth in weeding was a young boy from the village. In fact, this was usually a job for young boys, and the strong laborers in the brigade would not waste their time on it. Wouldn't it be better to cultivate more wasteland?

In this day and age, land is food, and food is life!

The young man initially felt honored to have been given this job, and his friends envied him for being able to get close to the educated youth.

City folks!

The people in the brigade were quite curious; they were like rare animals in the brigade.

It can be said that wherever the educated youth went, they attracted attention and discussion.

By the end of the day, everyone was exhausted, and some even collapsed onto their beds without a care for their image. Not a single spark was lit in the kitchen of the educated youth settlement that day.

The next day, Lu Chunping cried and asked for leave, but the brigade did not agree. She then begged Xu Xinning to help her get a sick leave certificate. Xu Xinning took her pulse and did not agree. She then tried to bribe her, but when that failed, she threw a tantrum and put on another good show.

However, after a week, I got used to it and my appearance changed a lot. Originally, everyone came out looking smooth, fair, and clean, but after a week of training, they looked a bit like farmers.

Ever since Mu Jingheng moved into the Xu family home, Xu Xinning has been avoiding him. Except when it's time to eat, Xu Xinning has been considering whether to move to the medical station. Anyway, she has her own space, so she can just stay at the space farm at night.

She simply couldn't stand Mu Jingheng's burning eyes anymore. Every time he saw her, he would flirt and seduce her. Xu Xinning was really afraid that if this continued, she would be struck by lightning.

However, this person is really capable. If someone else had treated Xu Xinning like this, her family would definitely have been on high alert and treated him as their number one enemy. But when Mu Jingheng did this, her family thought that Xu Xinning was too aloof. They even said that young people should interact more and make more friends, and that Xu Daya did a better job than Xu Xinning in this regard.

Yes, in just one week, Xu Daya had completely integrated into the group of educated youth. They walked to and from work together every day, and all the members of the brigade knew that Xu Daya's relationship with the educated youth was extraordinary.

Of course, Mu Jingheng is an exception, because he has already fully integrated into the Xu family.

Early in the morning, Xu Laosan dragged Mu Jingheng to the threshing ground with a stool from home to reserve a spot. Xu Laosan was very skilled at this task; he had done it many times when he was in the military compound.

Yes, open-air movies are also shown in military compounds.

Although Mu Jingheng also lived in a military compound, there were still some differences between military compounds.

It was the first time the brigade had shown an open-air movie, and many members were inexperienced and didn't realize the importance of reserving a good spot.

Xu Laosan: "Brother, brother, carry that big chair on your back. You carry one and I'll carry the other. Grandpa and Grandma will be comfortable sitting in this chair."

Mu Jingheng, with his childlike nature, also found it very lively and was looking forward to the movie that night. He had seen open-air movies before, but this was the first time he had ever experienced one firsthand.

Mu Jingheng: "Third brother, if you can't get them all, make a few more trips. Or just draw a circle with a stone to reserve them for later."

Xu Laosan: "As expected of my brother, this is a good idea. I'll put my name on the list in the industry and see who dares to shamelessly steal my place."

Mu Jingheng chuckled to himself. He felt that he and Xu Laosan were really a perfect match. He was a bully in the compound, while Xu Laosan was the bully in the brigade. In the past week or so, he had witnessed firsthand the boy's audacity in the brigade. Even the young boys had to respectfully call him "boss" when they saw him.

Xu Laosan and Mu Jingheng were carrying large chairs on their shoulders and had stools tucked under their armpits, making them look incredibly funny.

Xu Xinning was also amused. Before, there was only one loud and boisterous Xu Laosan in the family, but now with the addition of Mu Jingheng, the liveliness is no less than that of three thousand ducks.

Grandma Xu turned around and found that all the stools in the house were gone. She hurriedly chased after them to the gate and shouted, "You took both stools! Where are we going to sit for lunch?"

Without turning his head, Xu Laosan loudly replied, "Eat standing up."

A passerby noticed their unusual behavior and asked, "Third brother, Mu Zhiqing, what are you two doing?"

Xu Laosan: "Aren't we going to show a movie tonight?"

Passerby: "Yeah!"

Xu Laosan: "Don't you need to sit down to watch the movie?"

Passerby: "Isn't it too early to put the stools away now?"

Xu Laosan cursed him as an idiot in his heart, but he held it in and said, "There are so many members in the whole brigade. If you don't get a good spot now, you'll be stuck in a corner when it's your turn to watch the movie."

Passerby: "Yeah, how come Old Xu's brain works so well?"
