Chapter 15 You Don't Need to Work



"I bet the little girl won't last an hour before she starts crying on the floor."

"He can't even hold a sickle, and he doesn't know how to swing a hoe. If he goes to work in the fields, he will cause a lot of jokes."

"If I had money, I would just stay at home and lie down instead of suffering like this."

There was a constant chattering in my ears.

Shen Jiaojiao ignored it.

You're right. If you want money, who would be willing to sweat profusely in the field under the scorching sun in the hot summer?

But now that she is getting married, she has to protect her reputation.

After all, I don't want to bring shame to my husband's family anymore.

But she couldn't keep working all the time, so she had to find an opportunity to get an easier job.

She doesn't need to gain ten centimeters.

She would be satisfied if she could gain two or three centimeters a day.

At least it proves that he is doing something to make a living, and is not just a vase that cannot be lifted or carried and can only be looked at.

Moreover, if one continues to have a bad reputation in the village, it will affect one's future.

She wants to take the college entrance examination in the future. No, she wants to take Xu Mo with her.

So, the ingredients cannot be bad.

The captain glanced at the old women who were chattering and watching the fun but not doing their work.

"What? Is there enough food at home? No need to work?"

The old woman ran away angrily.

The captain looked at Shen Jiaojiao with satisfaction.

"Shen Zhiqing, your awareness is quite high. What we need to do now is to carry forward the spirit of hard work and simplicity. Only those who endure the most hardships can become the best.

Well, today is your first day at work, and I will assign you an easier job."

The more the captain looked at the little girl, the more he liked her.

Shen Jiaojiao said embarrassedly, "Captain, let me make it clear first, I may only be able to do two or three work points a day."

Captain: “…This…”

A half-grown child could earn two or three work points by cutting grass for pigs.

"We should work as much as we can. If we can get two or three work points today, we can get four or five work points tomorrow. Later on, we may even get full work points. In this way, the grain output of our production team will increase immediately."

The captain was still drawing big cakes for Shen Jiaojiao, but Shen Jiaojiao had no interest in working anymore.

If you are only paid two or three work points, you definitely can't do more than that.

I’m tired from doing so much!

She didn't want to work herself to death for those few work points.

When she has free time, she goes to make money.

"Captain, what is my job?"

"Go weed the soybean field. It's on the north side of the mountain. It's two mu, not very big. I'll give you two centimeters when you're done."

"good."

Weeding should be easy.

But how big is two mu of land?

She had no idea.

The captain looked up and saw Xu Mo walking in from outside.

"That's great. Xu Mo, take Shen Jiaojiao to the soybean field. But you have to teach her what bean sprouts look like, and don't pull them out."

Shen Jiaojiao turned around and saw Xu Mo approaching.

Xu Mo was very tall, and she looked like a little child standing in front of him.

He could probably pick her up with one hand and swing her around a few times without any effort.

Xu Mo glanced at Shen Jiaojiao and frowned slightly.

But he said nothing. After receiving the farm tools, he took Shen Jiaojiao away.

Shen Jiaojiao also received a sickle.

The edge of the sickle is sharp.

She was quite curious about these things.

After all, she had never touched these farm tools in her previous life.

So, he took the handle of the sickle, swung it back and forth, and cut the weeds on the roadside.

The weeds were chopped off by the sharp sickle and bent down one after another.

Shen Jiaojiao was in high spirits and swung hard again.

As luck would have it, he hit a rock.

The sickle was bounced back violently, and as Shen Jiaojiao loosened her hand, the sickle flew out.

"ah……"

She hurriedly took a few steps back, and the sickle landed just at her feet.

Dangerous and dangerous.

Shen Jiaojiao's heart was pounding.

Xu Mo turned around and looked at the sickle on the ground.

Without saying a word, he returned and picked up the sickle.

He didn't give Shen Jiaojiao any more and said calmly, "You are an adult, and you are still playing."

Shen Jiaojiao stuck out her tongue, trying to act coquettishly and cutely to him.

However, there were other people around, so she didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

“It’s fun!”

She said weakly.

Xu Mo was silent for a while, then asked her in an unnatural tone, "Is your hand hurt?"

Shen Jiaojiao placed her white and tender palm in front of Xu Mo and said obediently, "No."

Xu Mo's gaze stayed on the woman's hand for a moment.

The woman's hands were slender and fair, with delicate and shiny skin.

Because the skin is so white, the blood vessels on the back of the hand are clearly visible.

With just a pair of hands like this, how can they be used for farm work?

Isn't it such a pity?

Xu Mo thought so.

"Let's go!"

He turned and continued walking forward.

Shen Jiaojiao looked at the sickle in his hand and wanted to say, you haven't returned the sickle to me yet?

But she realized that Xu Mo was concerned about her just now!

So, probably because he didn't want her to get hurt by the sickle again, he didn't give her the sickle.

Shen Jiaojiao is as happy as a child at this moment.

Is Xu Mo starting to like her a little?

After the two left.

The crowd of onlookers started gossiping.

But they were quite far away from each other, so I could only see the two of them but couldn't hear them talking.

So, the following conversation took place:

"Did you see that? Xu Mo got mad at Shen Jiaojiao just now. He was so fierce that Shen Jiaojiao almost cried."

"Xu Mo must have given up on Shen Jiaojiao because she followed Fang Qinghe. What man would like a vixen?"

"Oh, the Xu family will definitely be very lively in the future. This is really unfortunate."

Fang Qinghe's mother was also there at this time.

She was harvesting wheat in the field and looked up when she heard the talk.

He looked around and saw that Liu Xiaolan was nowhere to be found, so he dared to shout loudly.

"Our Qinghe would never look down upon such a useless woman. She can't carry anything, and keeping her at home is a waste of food.

Let me tell you, Shen Jiaojiao used to cry and beg my son to marry her, but I didn't agree. So my son naturally listened to me and didn't allow her to marry him.

Moreover, I can guarantee that Shen Jiaojiao still has not given up on my son. Maybe she will regret the engagement and force my son to marry her in the end! Humph, Shen Jiaojiao, this vixen, she will never be able to enter my house."

Xu Mo took Shen Jiaojiao to the soybean field.

The two mu of land is actually quite large, about 30x40 square meters in area.

There are a lot of weeds in the field.

Some of the weeds have grown to waist height.

Xu Mo squatted in the soybean field and began to cut the grass with a sickle.

His hands are very big.

The fingers are very long.

When you apply force on your hands, the blue veins on the back of your hands become particularly obvious.

It is also very tense.

"Third brother, is this my job?"

Xu Mo said without raising his head, "You don't need to work."

Shen Jiaojiao was stunned.

Is this because you feel sorry for her?

You don't want her to work, so you help her?

Shen Jiaojiao felt warm in her heart.

She looked around.

This piece of land is quite remote and there is no one around.

So, he squatted beside Xu Mo and kissed him on the face.
