Chapter 93 First Day at Work (Part 2)
Liu Ermei, who was already blushing from shyness, became even redder after being teased by Lu Xiaoxiao. She lowered her head as low as she could and wished she could crawl into the ground. When Lu Xiaoxiao saw Liu Ermei's look, she immediately stopped. She was afraid something might happen if she continued teasing her. Kids nowadays are really naive.
"Second sister, can you teach me how to cut grass for pigs?" She saw that Liu Ermei kept blushing and lowering her head without saying anything, so she had to open her mouth to find a topic, because it was her who caused the trouble.
After a long while, Liu Ermei finally raised her head and whispered, "Just watch me cut. I'll move slowly. This is very simple. You can learn it in no time."
Seeing that Liu Ermei finally started talking to her, Lu Xiaoxiao didn't dare to do anything to provoke Liu Ermei anymore. Instead, she nodded obediently to show that she understood, as if she was not the one who had teased her before.
She watched her second sister's slow-motion demonstration of cutting grass for pigs. Her movements were so slow that her eyes twitched. Even the dumbest person wouldn't be so slow. She hadn't even cut a handful of grass in a minute.
Liu Ermei's teaching demonstration finally ended. She quickly said that she had learned it. She took out a sickle and cut a handful of grass to show that she had really learned it.
When Liu Ermei saw Lu Xiaoxiao cutting a handful of grass skillfully, she believed that Lu Xiaoxiao had learned it, so she sped up and continued to cut grass for the pigs.
Seeing that Liu Ermei was cutting grass so fast, Lu Xiaoxiao quickly put on work gloves and started cutting grass for the pigs. She also wanted to go to the pig farm with Liu Ermei later because she didn't know where the pig farm was.
Not long after, Liu Ermei had finished cutting a whole basket of pig grass, while she had only half a basket. So she asked Liu Ermei if she was going to send the pig grass to the pig farm and would not come again. Liu Ermei said that she had to cut two baskets in the morning and three baskets in the afternoon, a total of five baskets a day. This was only the first basket in the morning, so she would come back later to continue cutting.
After listening to Liu Ermei's words, Lu Xiaoxiao told her that she would go with her when she went to deliver the second basket of pig feed.
Lu Xiaoxiao watched Liu Ermei's back getting farther and farther away as she carried the basket on her back. She sighed that life is really not easy for children nowadays. Liu Ermei looked about the same age as she is now, but her hands were covered with calluses, which were obviously caused by years of working. If an adult had calluses on her hands, it would be understandable, but she was just an eight or nine-year-old child.
No matter how much she lamented, she couldn't help Liu Ermei at the moment. However, if there was a chance in the future and she needed help, she would still be willing to help this lovely little girl.
Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the backpack and decided to cut the grass for the pigs first. She hadn’t cut a basket of grass for half a day and she felt really contemptuous of herself.
After she had been cutting grass for the pigs for a while, she saw Liu Ermei hurried back. Seeing that Liu Ermei was sweating profusely, she suggested that she take a break before continuing to cut grass.
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Ermei shook her head and said that she didn't need to rest, as she was already used to it. After cutting the grass in the basket, she would rush home to cook.
After hearing what Liu Ermei said, Lu Xiaoxiao also quickened her pace. When Liu Ermei finished cutting a basket of pig grass, she also finished cutting a basket of pig grass. Then she and Liu Ermei went to the pig farm together.
When they arrived at the pig farm, Lu Xiaoxiao saw three aunts cleaning the pigpen and cooking pig food. She followed Liu Ermei to an aunt to give her pig feed and then registered her work points. After finishing these, she left the pig farm with Liu Ermei.
They reached a fork in the road. Because Liu Ermei's home was in the south and her home was in the north, she and Liu Ermei were about to separate. So she told Liu Ermei that she would go to the place where they cut grass today and help her cut grass for the pigs tomorrow morning.
Then she secretly gave Liu Ermei two pieces of fruit candy and told her in a way that she could not refuse if she acknowledged her as her friend.
Seeing Lu Xiaoxiao's determined look, Liu Ermei finally accepted the candy.
