Su Xiao knew that quite a few young men in the village had their eyes on her at first. She ran into them several times on the road, but she politely declined them all, and then no one came looking for her anymore.
She had also heard gossip that Aunt Zhao had always wanted to marry her son a young woman from the city who had been sent to the countryside during the Cultural Revolution.
Is she targeting Yanzi this time? How despicable.
Cao Bing nodded and agreed, "I understand, I will keep an eye on Yanzi."
Huang Feiyan was also extremely disgusted, but she still comforted them first, saying, "Don't worry, I will be careful in the future and won't act alone."
Huang Feiyan felt a warmth in her heart, and once again felt that her decision to go to the countryside was the right one. Although she had fallen out with her family because of this decision, she still had two good friends.
Yes, she now considers Cao Bing a good friend, after all, they've shared meals together and have a close relationship.
Putting aside Tian Jinhua's scheming for now, it's currently the busy farming season, and Secretary Zhao and several team leaders are already waiting in the fields.
Zhao Xi was quite surprised to see Su Xiaoxiao arrive. "Xiaoxiao, what brings you here?"
Oh dear, my little darling, he was entrusted by Shang Zhiqing to take good care of her. Why is she causing trouble during this busy farming season?
Su Xiao smiled and said, "Secretary Zhao, my two friends have never done any real farm work before. Please give them a smaller plot of land, and I'll help them out. That should be enough."
Yes, she was actually there to bargain, because during the busy farming season, work is divided up. Generally, adult men are assigned ten work points, while adult women are assigned eight.
These two were newcomers and embarrassed to complain about how hard they were working, so they just did whatever they were assigned. Considering their physical condition, it was already exhausting; the busy farming season isn't a one-day job, and they'd be completely worn out by the end. That's why they insisted on coming to negotiate and offer their help.
"Alright, alright, come with me." Zhao Xi glanced around and, finding no one nearby, waved to them and led them to a slightly secluded spot. "Just this spot. Once it's done, we can go home."
"Really? That's great, thank you Secretary Zhao." Su Xiao estimated that the three of them should be able to complete the task.
Zhao Xi smiled slightly and instructed, "Xiao Xiao, you should go back early. The work at the farm can't be delayed."
He couldn't directly tell her to go back and quit; he could only offer a gentle reminder.
Su Xiao nodded in agreement.
As soon as Zhao Xi left, Huang Feiyan jumped up immediately, "Wow, it has to be Xiao Xiao! We can definitely finish this piece of land earlier today, without having to work in the dark."
They worked until very late yesterday and were exhausted.
"Alright, let's get to work." Su Xiao laughed. "It's our own health. We'd rather earn fewer work points than ruin our health."
“Yes, yes, that’s right.” Huang Feiyan immediately agreed.
Without further ado, Cao Bing cut, and Huang Feiyan and Su Xiao tied them up.
Actually, she had done this kind of work for her grandmother's family when she was a child in the future.
Following the feeling from his memory, Su Xiao quickly got the hang of it and got to work in no time.
What a joke! She's already the top worker in this space. However, no rice is grown there.
After tying the ropes for a while, Su Xiao picked up the sickle and began cutting, doing it just as skillfully.
Huang Feiyan, who was following behind them, stared wide-eyed, her mouth agape in astonishment. "Xiaoxiao, you're amazing!"
“That’s right.” Su Xiao said proudly, “Hurry up and get to work, it’ll be unbearably hot when the sun comes out soon, let’s finish early and go home early.”
Okay.
