Song Jin's mind raced, but there were many things she couldn't understand right now. She could only observe more carefully in the future, as this was, after all, a matter concerning the life and safety of her number one pursuer.
Aunt Chen also had a good impression of Song Jin, perhaps because she was pretty, perhaps because she knew she was well-off and wanted to make friends with her, or perhaps because of the trust her old sister had given her before she left.
Aunt Chen first taught Song Jin which were grasses and which were wild vegetables. She took the grasses out to be thrown away, and packed the wild vegetables so she could take them home to cook after work. Many newly arrived educated youth couldn't even tell the difference between grasses and crops, so Aunt Chen first taught her to identify the grasses.
Song Jin was also a rural child in his first life. Although he spent most of his time in school, he only occasionally went to the fields with his parents during the summer vacation. So, distinguishing grass from crops was no problem. The only thing he had to remember was which wild vegetables were edible.
Aunt Chen and Song Jin each took a row and started weeding. They both took tools from the warehouse, two pointed hoes.
Aunt Chen was an old hand after all, and soon left Song Jin behind.
Song Jin was not very skilled at the hoe at first because the handle was too long and she always hit herself easily.
I always feel uncomfortable wearing gloves, but I’m afraid of getting blisters if I don’t wear them.
After slowly adapting for a while, I finally caught up with Aunt Chen.
Ever since Song Jin's experience with the apocalypse, she has found that she has become much stronger. Even so, she still feels very tired when doing farm work.
She thought she would be the most capable among the educated youth, and fantasized about getting full work points every day so that she could be herself freely.
Now I look at my hands which seem to have Parkinson’s disease. I wipe the sweat off my head and face. I can’t do it!
I have to plan carefully. If I don’t want to do farm work here, I have to find a way somewhere else.
The first choice of the heroine in the period novel who goes to the countryside is to be a teacher in the village primary school. No, she doesn’t even know if there is a primary school in the village, let alone whether there is a shortage of teachers. Pass!
The second option is to cut grass for the pigs. Take two centimeters every day, cut the grass for the pigs and carry it to the pigpen. This is not impossible, but it’s pending!
The third option, the barefoot doctor, well... absolutely nothing. He probably knows a little first aid, but that's all from novels, not real-world experience. He has plenty of medicine, but if someone needs a consultation, he can't prescribe anything without knowing the symptoms. No, no, if he kills someone, it's a disaster. Pass!
The fourth option, village accountant, required a strong backing and the trust of the villagers. No, no, even if she managed to get promoted, she hated accounting; the sight of numbers gave her a headache. She was always weak in some subjects, with math being her worst. Pass, pass, pass!
The fifth choice is a tractor driver. She signed up for a driving school after the college entrance exam, but she didn't pass the test before she started wearing it. However, she had driven many cars in the last few years of the apocalypse, including trucks, cars, and buses. A tractor should be fine, as you don't need a driver's license these days. Hmm, this is possible, but it seems there are no tractors in the team! !!! To be determined!
The sixth option is to find a job in a factory in town or in the county, but it is hard to find a job these days. There is only one job for each person, and you can't find a job even if you have money. You can only wait and see if there will be another opportunity in the future.
well……
After all the planning, you still have to work in the fields.
Although he was thinking about it, he did not neglect the work in his hands. He chatted with Aunt Chen from time to time, stopped to drink some water, eat some candy, and then gave Aunt Chen two more, and talked about the gossip in the village.
It’s finally ten o’clock and I can go back to have breakfast.
Song Jin was not actually hungry. After all, she had already eaten in the morning. Others went back home to have breakfast, but she went back home to rest.
On the way back, Chen Liang appeared out of nowhere. He disappeared after the tasks were assigned in the morning, and now he appeared with a rabbit in his hand.
Song Jin was trying to cover up his mistake by wrapping it with a bunch of wild vegetables. He couldn't bear to watch as the wild vegetables were almost eaten by the rabbits, but he still thought he had wrapped it tightly.
When they arrived at the door, they wanted to give the wild rabbit to Song Jin, but Song Jin refused to take it. What a fool! If there were two, she would only take one. There was only one in total, and so many people saw her along the way. His family was not only made up of the captain and his wife, but also two brothers, sisters-in-law, and three nephews and nieces. It was time to talk to him.
Passersby on the street are not afraid of their gossip, but they are mainly worried that his family will be unhappy.
In this era, everything on the mountain is public property, but in recent years, everyone has tacitly agreed that some small things can be kept for themselves, such as an occasional pheasant or rabbit, but if you go up the mountain and kill a big one like a wild boar, you still have to hand it over to the team.
After Song Jin refused, he hurried home. However, half an hour later, Chen Daxiaozi came again with rabbit meat that had been washed clean and cut into pieces. Song Jin looked at the wild rabbit meat in the basin and finally accepted it.
At the Chen family, the captain's wife looked at the half-finished hare on the kitchen chopping board and began to doubt her life.
What the hell did she give birth to?
