"Other members' families usually have elderly people and children, so they don't have as many able-bodied laborers as ours. If I don't work early in the morning, I'll earn fewer work points, and I'll get less grain at the end of the year."
"Anyway, the production team will only have so much food. If I can get less, then others can get more! In fact, some members are hoping that others will have fewer work points so that they can get more food."
"I'll explain the relationship clearly to Captain Ma. I think he'll agree!"
"Okay, you're right! Let's go there now!"
After Fan Huifang agreed, Shen Xiaobei immediately put the other uncut watermelon into a canvas bag, carried it in his hand, and the two went to Ma Jiquan's house together.
As the saying goes, being polite makes things easier. After arriving at Ma Jiquan's house, Shen Xiaobei took out the watermelon first with a smile on his face.
When Ma Jiquan's wife saw such a big watermelon, she refused it at first, saying that they were too polite and it was such a big expense for them to come to her home. Then she accepted it with a happy smile on her face.
After the watermelon was accepted, Shen Xiaobei smiled and explained his purpose to Ma Jiquan.
After hearing this, Ma Jiquan hesitated a little.
Seeing this, his wife immediately spoke a few good words for Shen Xiaobei enthusiastically, saying that it was nothing, so many women did not go to work early, who would notice that an unmarried girl did not go to work early?
Ma Jiquan also knew that this was not a big deal.
However, if he agreed easily, and other people came to him to make such an application, then there would be no rules at all.
However, we were all in the same production team and saw each other every day.
He is generally unwilling to do things that may offend others.
Moreover, Shen Xiaobei was an educated youth, and he and many local members of the production team usually treated these educated youths from the city differently.
Another point is that he also thought of Deng Yuliang winning first place in the dragon boat race this time, and he would be rewarded with 300 work points. Then he would get more food than many people.
Shen Xiaobei lives with him. Since she doesn't go to work early in the morning, her work points will be fewer, which can lower the overall work points of their household, which is good.
So after thinking about it, Ma Jiquan agreed.
"Okay, Shen Zhiqing, since all of you Zhiqing households are laborers anyway, as long as you have no objection, you won't have to work early in the morning in the future."
"Captain Ma, we have no objection! Xiaobei discussed this with us, and everyone agreed, so I came with her to tell you."
"Okay, that's good."
"Captain Ma agreed. Thank you so much! I'll make some cold dishes tomorrow and send some over for you to try."
“No, no, Shen Zhiqing is so polite!”
"Of course, of course, Captain Ma, sister-in-law, let's go back first. It should be time to go to work soon, right?"
"Hey, we're almost there! Then take care!"
After negotiating with Ma Jiquan that he wouldn't have to work early in the morning, Shen Xiaobei's mood at the moment was as bright as the sunshine above his head in summer!
