Chapter 68: Two Things at Once



The women in the village knew that the new educated youth were all slacking off at work, each one slower than the other. However, educated youth Lin spoke politely and modestly, which made them feel comfortable. Even if they worked a little slowly, it was not a big deal.

"Oh, no problem. I'll teach you step by step later." Mrs. Wang agreed immediately.

Lin Shan had some candy in her pocket and gave one to each of them. After a few words, she started chatting with them familiarly.

Seeing how quickly she had integrated into the gossip group, Zhao Xuelin sprinkled a circle of sugar-coated bullets. The veins on his forehead bulged, and he reminded her loudly: "Lin Shan, Jiang Yuan, you can chat, but you can't delay the progress of the work. The soybeans must be collected in time."

"Captain, you can underestimate us, but you can't underestimate all the aunts, uncles, and sisters-in-law. With these talented women who hold up half the sky, there's no such thing as delaying the progress of the work. Even if we two hold them back, they can still do the work beautifully."

Lin Shan knew her own limitations and knew she would definitely be a drag. Since this group of women comrades took the initiative to approach her to join the team, she would naturally make good use of them.

Mrs. Wang and her friends usually don't team up with educated youth. Even the old educated youth are not as efficient as them at work. Today, they took the initiative to call Lin Shan and Jiang Yuan to team up, simply to inquire about the news and find some fresh topics to talk about.

Of course, the prerequisite is that these three female educated youth are quite efficient at work and are not as delicate as other educated youth when they first arrived. That is why they took the initiative to propose forming a team.

"Captain, don't worry, we won't delay our work. Even if you don't believe me, you have to believe your mother."

Mrs. Wang pushed out Zhao Xuelin's biological mother Yuan Cuimei. She was also a member of the gossip group and a good worker. However, Yuan Cuimei usually focused on taking care of the fat pigs in the team and came to help today.

Yuan Cuimei rolled her eyes at Wang Sao but said nothing. She spoke to Lin Shan and the others with a friendly expression, "Lin Zhiqing, Jiang Zhiqing, harvesting soybeans is easier than other farm work. You can work with your aunt later."

"Okay, thank you Aunt Zhao." The two responded with a smile.

Lin Shan and Jiang Yuan are both smart and thoughtful people. They know the purpose of Wang Sao and the others. When they chatted along the way, they said what they could say and avoided the important issues and changed the subject. They also took the initiative to inquire about the team's affairs and understood most of the team's situation in just one morning.

Yun Huaying, who was "working alone", had already gone to the fields to work. There was no one else watching her and everyone was very far away from her, so the weeds she cleared today were thrown into the space without any hesitation.

The hands are working, and the mind is working too.

After a night of growth in the space, due to the difference in the speed of time flow, many weeds have grown to half a person's height in the space for more than half a month. After sowing the grass seeds into the soil, all the vital plants were thrown into her spiritual eye.

After clearing the space, Yun Huaying thought about taking some time to go to the county town and buy some food on the black market...

"food?"

Yun Huaying looked down at the rice beside her and patted her lap, feeling a rare bit of embarrassment. "How come I've lived a second life and my brain has become so stupid? There's food right in front of me. These rice plants are still seedlings now. I can pull out some of the extra seedlings and plant them in the space. They will soon become rice. I can find a way to grind them into rice in the future. Wouldn't that make food easy to come by?"

He did it right away. He first used his mind to plan out an empty field in the space, and then pulled up all the extra seedlings in the paddy field and threw them into the space.

"Jacaranda."

When Han Zheng came over, Yun Huaying was bending over and working hard. When she heard his voice, she slowly straightened up.

Seeing that he was wearing a white shirt and olive green trousers, his face was less stern and resolute, and instead had a brighter and fresher look. As soon as she saw his attire, she was sure that he was going to do some business, so she asked, "Are you going to the county town?"

"Accompany Xuelin to the machinery factory."

Han Zheng walked to the position closest to her and stood still. His deep eyes were stained with an imperceptible soft light. He asked her, "Do you want me to bring something back for you?"

Yun Huaying had something to ask him, so she asked directly, "Han Zheng, do you have a watch ticket?"

"have."

Han Zheng actually had it on hand. It was given to him when he was completing his discharge procedures in the army. The corners of his mouth curled up: "But I don't have it with me now. I'm at home."

"Can you sell it to me?" Yun Huaying curled the corners of her mouth slightly.

Han Zheng actually wanted to give it to her, but considering her personality, she would definitely not want it if he gave it to her, but she would accept it if he sold it to her. He nodded and said, "Okay, I have other tickets. I'll get them for you later. You can exchange them for whatever you need."

"Thank you." Yun Huaying expressed her sincere gratitude.

"You don't have to be so polite."

Han Zheng noticed the faint smile on her lips. Although the arc was very small, it was enough to make him happy. She finally smiled at him.

"Huaying, do you want me to bring something back?" Han Zheng asked again.

"Please bring me five pounds of fat meat, one pound each of pork belly and spare ribs."

Yun Huaying didn't want to treat herself badly in terms of food, and she was not short of money, so naturally she wanted to eat and drink well and keep her body in good shape.

"Okay, we might not be back for a little while today, so we'll bring it to you when we get back."

Han Zheng was still rushing to the county town. Zhao Xuelin was waiting for him on the opposite side of the road. He turned and left after saying, "Huaying, you continue with your work. I'm leaving now."

"Okay." Yun Huaying nodded.

They had only exchanged a few words when a flurry of discussion broke out on the opposite hillside. Lin Shan and Jiang Yuan were both surrounded by the voices of the female comrades.

"Lin Zhiqing, Jiang Zhiqing, Han Zheng, the grandson of the Han family, what is the relationship between him and Yun Zhiqing?"
