Chapter 7 First Work
After Jiang Erzhu left, Song Wei wanted to turn around and go back to her room, but was blocked by Xu Laidi who suddenly rushed out.
"Song Wei, what do you mean? Don't you know that we educated youth don't have a good relationship with the team? You gave your meat to a country bumpkin and didn't give it to us. Do you look down on us? This is too disunited!"
Xu Lai Di has an impulsive personality, and she was mainly greedy for the meat. As soon as she stood out, everyone else looked like they were waiting for a good show.
In fact, many of the educated youth agreed with what Xu Laidie said.
The smile on Song Wei's face fell: "How can you have the nerve to say such shameless words?"
"The things are mine. I'm happy to give them to someone who needs your care? Get out of the way."
Xu Lai Di stood in front of her stubbornly: "I won't, unless you share the remaining snake meat."
You must be crazy about it.
Li Juan: "I've already eaten it, I can't tell the difference."
“How is this possible!!!”
Xu Lai Di didn't believe it, so she broke into the backyard of Li Juan's room. When she saw the empty pottery jar, her eyes suddenly turned red.
"Are you reincarnated pigs? You're such a glutton! You had several kilograms of meat, but in the end you gave it to a country bumpkin and didn't give us any..."
Song Wei interrupted her and said, "Don't keep calling me a country bumpkin. You are in the same situation. They can at least farm to support themselves, but you can barely support yourself. How can you look down on others? Workers and peasants are respected now. Are you looking down on farmers?"
Xu Laidi's face turned pale. She dared not say this. She would definitely be criticized if it got out.
"I didn't, I didn't, it's obviously you who are talking nonsense!"
Xu Laidi seemed a little scared and was no longer obsessed with the snake meat. She just glared at Song Wei and Li Juan fiercely and hurried back to the dormitory.
From her name, one can tell that Xu Lai Di's family favors boys over girls. She is not valued and she has no money when she comes to the countryside, so she cannot afford the cost of a single room.
"Song Zhiqing's words are too serious. Xu Zhiqing just said it without meaning it."
I thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly someone else came to show off his presence.
The words were spoken gently, and Song Wei looked at her.
Bai Yunjiao said: "After all, we all went to the countryside together. It is fate that we are together. We are all educated youth and we should unite. There is no malice in what Xu Zhiqing said.
We don’t have any major conflicts with her, so we will definitely not let it get out. Otherwise, if the villagers knew about it, they would think that we educated youth are restless.”
What she said was that now only she and Xu Zhiqing had a conflict. If it really got out, it would be her who spread it? "Haven't we educated youths been restless in their eyes for a long time?"
Bai Yunjiao was choked suddenly.
"Besides, if it really gets out, it's not impossible to find out. If someone really wrongly accuses me, I'll take Xu Lai Di and knock on doors one by one to find out who spread the news."
Bai Yunjiao bit her lip: "That's not what I meant..."
She looked like she was about to cry but didn't, and she looked very aggrieved, as if she had been bullied by me.
Song Wei immediately took Li Juan back three steps: "You all saw it, I didn't bully her, I didn't even touch a hair of hers."
Luo Yecheng, who was about to stand up for justice: …
Bai Yunjiao was also stunned, as if she didn't expect her to react like this.
Song Wei stared at her eyes curiously: "Are you crying? Are your tears falling? Tell me clearly why you are crying. Don't let people misunderstand that I hit you. I'm not the kind of person who hits people casually."
Other educated youth: ...Are you serious? Were you not the one who beat Liu Linlin before?
Luo Yecheng also thought of how she had hit him over a disagreement before, and his face darkened.
Bai Yunjiao was in a dilemma whether to cry or not.
"I...you didn't bully me."
But his tone and voice revealed aggrieved feeling.
"I really didn't bully you. How could I bully you if I just said a few words without even mentioning your name? What kind of idiot would take the initiative to identify herself? Doesn't that mean she wants to spread what Xu Lai Di said and then slander me, right, Bai Zhiqing?"
Song Wei showed a row of white and neat teeth.
Bai Yunjiao forced a smile and hummed.
Now I really don’t dare to continue talking.
Song Wei waved her hand: "It's alright, let's go, we still have to go to work tomorrow."
Although the rush for harvest is over, there is still a lot to be done.
After drying the wheat and millet and peeling corn, I also have to quickly plant a crop of radishes and cabbages in the fields.
The fields in the countryside are basically always busy except when it snows in winter.
Song Wei had eaten and drunk enough today, and she felt her stomach smelled sweet even though she was sleeping on a simple bed.
I always smile when I dream at night.
The next day, just as it was getting light, around six o'clock, the gong sounded, signaling the team to go to work.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The old educated youth were already accustomed to this sound, and the new ones started to get up reluctantly.
Song Wei became more energetic.
Then follow Li Juan to get the job.
"Song Zhiqing."
The team leader who assigned the work felt a headache when he saw the white cloth wrapped around her head and her sickly face.
"Go over there and thresh the corn. It's an easier job and you get five work points a piece."
A full centimeter is ten centimeters, which is basically the work that an adult man can finish in a day if he works hard.
The captain of the peace brigade is a smart man. The previous way of working together bred many lazy people. Later, after some thought and discussion, they divided the work of each person every day. Everyone did their own work. If they could finish the work, they would get ten work points. If they could not finish the work, they would be given work points depending on the situation.
The corn piles were divided into sections, one for each person. Five work points would make a large pile, and it would take an adult half a day to finish the work.
But this job is easy, so it is given to the teenagers and the elderly in the village, who have to work for a whole day.
Since Song Wei was considered a wounded soldier, the team leader assigned her an easy job.
She took the job without any objection.
Some people had already received work at the cornpile and were sitting cross-legged on the ground to work, while others had brought small stools from home.
Song Wei didn't want to sit on the ground, not because she cared about cleanliness, but because her butt would hurt and her legs would go numb if she sat like that for a long time.
So I found a stone pillar that I liked, moved it over and put it away, said hello to the people I knew, and smiled at the people I didn't know. I put the stone pillar down and started working.
"Is Song Zhiqing here?"
Seeing her coming, the eyes of the ladies around immediately fell on her.
An old lady next door even ran over with a small stool and moved closer to her.
"Song Zhiqing, is your head okay?"
Just by looking at her gossipy look, Song Wei knew what she wanted to do.
Song Wei nodded: "I felt a little dizzy yesterday, but not so dizzy today."
"I heard that you fell into the water accidentally? How is this different from what you said before?"
Obviously, what Song Wei said on the ox cart before had already spread out.
