Maybe it’s because the watermelon seeds in the previous life were specially cultivated, so the watermelons grown by Bai Guoguo are a circle smaller than others.
However, the watermelon's aroma is stronger, and the sweetness is the same as before.
After hearing that the black seeds inside watermelons can be used to grow watermelons, Little Tiger started eating watermelons in small bites, letting every seed flow out for planting.
The other members of the He family, like Xiao Huzi, put the spitted seeds into a small basin.
After eating the watermelon, wash it with clean water and dry it in the sun, and use it to plant watermelons the next year.
"Grandma Wen, this melon can actually be grown for another season. It's an early-maturing variety. Plant it in the sand while it's still hot, and you can still enjoy some before winter!"
Bai Guoguo said this while chewing a watermelon and shaking his head, his feet stretched out and crossed on the ground, wiggling up and down. It was obvious that the owner of these feet was very comfortable.
"We can still plant some. Let's plant some more behind the house. There's sand there too."
The He family and Bai Guoguo's family live at the edge of the village. Few people come here usually, so no one cares if they grow some watermelons behind their houses.
"Guoguo, this is your first time joining the mess hall. Follow your aunt and sister-in-law and do whatever they tell you to do. Don't just listen to their orders!"
Old Mrs. Wen held her hand and gave her instructions, fearing that Bai Guoguo was a simple-minded and shy person and would be bullied.
"Just follow me and your sister-in-law when the time comes, and I'll make sure no one bullies you!"
There are always one or two bad apples in every team, and Aunt Wang is worried that someone will bully Bai Guoguo because he is unfamiliar with the team.
In fact, their worries this time were completely unnecessary. Bai Guoguo is now a celebrity in the brigade. Everyone knows that she has prepared several money-making projects for the brigade.
Who doesn't want to be a worker? If you offend Bai Guoguo, you will offend the old He family standing behind her, as well as all the cadres in the brigade. Who would be so stupid as to offend her?
The He family is also worried and confused, it's good enough that Bai Guoguo doesn't make things difficult for others.
At noon the next day, Bai Guoguo, Aunt Wang and Mrs. Zhang went to the kitchen, and as expected, they saw Li Xiuxiu there.
In addition, there was Captain He’s wife and several other unknown women.
Most of them are married women, with only Li Xiuxiu and Bai Guoguo being the only two young people.
Everyone worked together to wash all the pots, pans, knives and cutting boards, and then went home.
The next day is the real day. Today everyone should go back and recharge their energy so that they can work hard tomorrow!
Early the next morning, just as the sky was getting light, the brigade's broadcast sounded, and people left their homes one after another and gathered at the brigade entrance.
Seeing that most people had arrived, the team leader picked up the loudspeaker and gave a mobilization speech.
"Fellow villagers, team members, our wheat harvest is heavy this year, and it's another bumper harvest. We must all work together to store the wheat before the heavy rain. Now, let's get to work and work harder. Today we have some fat meat, a pig-killing dish!"
One day, there was a pig being slaughtered and fatty meat was being eaten. There was a lot of noise at the scene, and the team leader ordered each team to take their members to work.
Every year during the summer harvest, the entire team is busy together. The elderly who cannot do heavy work are assigned to watch over the field, dry the wheat, and drive away birds.
The little kids were also given a small basket each and followed them to the fields to pick up wheat ears.
The young and middle-aged laborers, the women were harvesting wheat, the men were carrying wheat stacks, and even the educated youth were called in, leaving no one behind.
Li Dongyang and Wang Qiuyu, who usually complained the most, have also quieted down now. The key point is that Bai Guoguo's prestige in the team is growing day by day, and no one will believe them even if they say bad things about her now.
The two also discovered that every time they said something bad about Bai Guoguo, the labor would intensify the next day.
On several occasions, both of them were even assigned to carry manure, which they scattered along the way, shaking and swaying, and were scolded by their respective team leaders.
When someone is about the same height as you, you will still think about competing with him.
When someone is taller than you, you can still try to reach him, maybe you can do it too.
When someone is much taller than you, you won't even feel jealous.
But Bai Guoguo had already forgotten about the two people. They were just Bai Guoguo, two unfriendly passers-by on the road of life. Bai Guoguo would never waste extra attention on them.
The members of the canteen include Aunt He, Li Xiuxiu, Aunt Wang, and Aunt Zhang.
There is also Mrs. Liu and Aunt Jin. Aunt Jin is the Korean lady who makes delicious kimchi.
When Bai Guoguo was building the house, she often cooked delicious food for the workers. Her reputation as a good cook spread throughout the brigade at that time.
Everyone was happy to recruit her into the kitchen team this time, and everyone was curious whether Bai Guoguo's cooking skills were as good as the rumors said.
So this time, Bai Guoguo became the head chef of the canteen!
