Chapter 85 Provoking Again

He glanced at Yang Hongmei. The bracelet was not on Xia Jing's hand. His mother didn't like Xia Jing in the first place, but now...

Zhou Hao sneered, turned around and was about to leave with the sickle in his hand.

Xia Jing grabbed his clothes:

"Zhou Hao, listen to me, at that time I and..."

"I'm not interested in hearing who you're hugging."

Zhou Hao turned his head impatiently and looked at the pitiful woman in front of him. For some reason, he no longer had the same heart-pounding feeling as before.

"Zhou Hao, am I such an unreserved person in your heart?"

Xia Jing questioned with a heartbroken look on her face. Zhou Hao curled his lips sarcastically, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth made Xia Jing feel even more uncomfortable.

"you……"

She didn't expect that Zhou Hao really looked down on her now!

But what did she do?

"Xia Liang!"

The two were still struggling when they suddenly heard someone calling Xia Liang's name.

Xia Liang, who was still concentrating on harvesting wheat not far away, straightened up, holding the sickle in one hand and rubbing his lower back with the other. He saw that the person who came was Yang Qiu, the scorer in the village, who was one of the few high school students in the village.

He seldom came to the fields, but being a scorekeeper was a good job, earning five points a day, but without having to work in the fields.

"Let's switch."

When Yang Qiu called out to Xia Liang, many people turned around and looked at him, and their workers slowed down their work of harvesting wheat.

They also wanted to know what happened to Yang Qiu, and Li Xue even smiled proudly.

She thought Yang Qiu came to deduct Xia Liang's work points.

After all, the last time Yang Qiu called him out, his work points were deducted, but now...

What the hell is the point of switching places with Xia Liang?

"Yang Qiu, what did you say?"

Xia Liang thought she was hallucinating and looked at him in surprise.

"You go back and record your work points. I'll harvest the wheat."

As he spoke, he walked over and took the sickle from Xia Liang's hand.

Xia Liang let go woodenly. Was she going to work in the office again?

Oh, no, it’s not called an office now, it’s called work points.

"Yang Qiu, what do you mean?"

Li Xue understood, jumped up angrily and questioned loudly.

Xia Liang recorded work points? Based on what?

They were all educated youth, so how come Xia Liang was able to always do a good job?

She had taken care of the soldier before, and the village chief said it was the soldier's idea. Well, she admitted that when she went to find Ning Zhiyuan, she didn't take over the job because she was incompetent.

Later, when they went to repair the reservoir, Xia Liang was doing statistic, so he didn't have to do any work. He just wrote in the command office all day. They couldn't keep up with him, which was already unbearable.

Now we finally start harvesting wheat. Yesterday, Xia Liang only worked for half a day and then went back to rest. Today, she worked for a short while and was asked to go back to record work points. Why?

"Haha, if you have any suggestions, go ask the village chief!"

Yang Qiu snorted coldly, picked up the sickle, bent down, and began to cut the wheat.

His speed was not fast, but he was much faster than those female educated youth. After all, they were children from the countryside and had been able to do these kinds of work since they were young.

"you?"

Li Xue was so angry that she almost smoked. She didn't understand. Xia Liang was not the village chief's biological daughter. That was not right. The village chief's biological daughter was right next to Xia Liang. But when that silly girl heard that Xia Liang was going to record work points, she was not angry. She said to Xia Liang cheerfully: "Sister Xia Liang, you should go back quickly. The sun is too strong now. Don't get a heat stroke!"

Li Xue: She worked the whole day yesterday, why didn’t anyone tell her that the sun was too strong and she should not get heatstroke?

Yang Hongmei was so angry that she gritted her teeth and stared at Xia Liang with fiery eyes. She just didn't understand why Xia Liang was so lucky?

Xia Jing's eyes turned red after hearing this. She looked at Xia Liang with pitiful eyes. That aggrieved expression would make anyone feel soft-hearted.

It was a pity that Xia Liang didn't even look at her. Since she was not allowed to go to the fields to harvest wheat, she certainly wouldn't refuse.

"Sorry to bother you!"

Xia Liang said to Yang Qiu politely, Yang Qiu smiled and said, "Go back quickly, there are still many things to do."

"Yang Xiaohong."

After Xia Liang walked away, Yang Hongmei came over. She looked in the direction Xia Liang left and asked maliciously, "Are you really your father's biological daughter?"

Yang Xiaohong rolled her eyes at Yang Hongmei: "What do you mean?"

"It's nothing. I just feel that your father treats Xia Liang much better than you."

"Looking after soldiers was a good job in the past, but you didn't get a chance, did you?"

"It's not tiring to do statistics at the reservoir, and it's none of your business. Now the work points are recorded in the wheat field, which has nothing to do with you either. Yang Xiaohong, don't you find it strange?"

Yang Hongmei knew that she and Yang Xiaohong could not become friends, but she did not want Xia Liang to have an easy time. This statement might not stir up the relationship between the two, but it would definitely make Yang Xiaohong feel uncomfortable, right?

"Haha, I just want to work in the fields. What's it to you?"

Yang Xiaohong rolled her eyes at her, bent down and continued to harvest wheat.

Yang Qiu, who was harvesting wheat, suddenly raised his head, glanced at the educated youths, and grinned: "Yang Hongmei, Li Xue, Xia Jing, you are chatting while working and delaying the harvesting progress. Deduct one point!"

The three women were immediately confused: "You... Yang Qiu, isn't it Xia Liang's job to record work points today? Why are you deducting our work points?"

If the old Yang Qiu was around them, how could they dare to be lazy? Today, they knew that Yang Qiu was no longer a scorekeeper, so they said a few more words.

"Haha, I'm still the scorekeeper today!"

Yang Qiu smiled brilliantly, and his big white teeth made the women want to smash them into pieces.

"You...what are you doing here as a scorekeeper?"

The three women were about to cry. They were so tired at the end of the day that their backs and waists ached, and they didn't earn many work points. Now one point was deducted all of a sudden. How could they not feel sad?

"I'd love to!"

Several people almost vomited blood. Yang Xiaohong laughed secretly. Li Xue saw Yang Xiaohong laughing with her sharp eyes and pointed at her nose and said loudly: "She was talking just now, why didn't you deduct her?"

"hehe……"

Yang Qiu just sneered and didn't answer.

"Yang Qiu, you are taking revenge for your personal gain!" Yang Hongmei also pointed at him and accused him.

"Is there a personal vendetta between us? How come I don't know about it?"

After hearing this, Yang Hongmei thought about it and realized that she had never offended Yang Qiu, and Yang Qiu had never retaliated against her in the past.

"But why don't you deduct Yang Xiaohong's work points?"

Yang Hongmei still felt unwilling in her heart. After all, she had only earned five points of work yesterday, and Yang Xiaohong earned one point more than her!

"After I came here, you saw how much Xiaohong had done and how much you had done?"

Yang Qiu pointed at the harvested wheat beside the three women. The three women looked in the direction of his finger and their faces turned red. They had been so busy talking just now that they seemed to have really forgotten to work.

But they always felt that Yang Xiaohong also talked a lot, so why did she cut off so much?
