"Why didn't she wake me? She cursed at me once and then went back to sleep."
At this point, Chen Fenglan was furious.
She kindly woke Qin Qiaoqiao up, but Qin Qiaoqiao scolded her for getting up so early so that she was going to steal.
Ha, let whoever wants to yell, she doesn't care.
"Captain, Qin Qiaoqiao is probably still sleeping."
Liu Pandi was gloating, since she wasn't the one who was embarrassed.
"Liu Pandi, go and call him over here."
Gu Xianjin's face was as black as the bottom of a pot; he really wished he could pack Qin Qiaoqiao up and send her back to the educated youth office.
"Let's start dividing the work now."
…
"As for the newly arrived educated youth, Ruan Qiushui was assigned to Team One, while Li Haonan, Li Haobei, and Duan Zhiyu were assigned to Team Two."
"Alright, everyone, grab your tools and let's get to work."
Gu Xianjin finished his work, and Qin Qiaoqiao stumbled in as well.
Although he looked disdainful, he was still a little uneasy inside.
The brigade leader doesn't give her any face, so she has no right to cause trouble.
"Qin Qiaoqiao, you can go to the pigsty with Wang Gui."
Qin Qiaoqiao's attitude towards production and construction is not correct, but he has plenty of ways to deal with it.
"What?!"
You want me to work in the pigsty?
She couldn't even stand the toilets in the educated youth quarters, let alone the pigsty. That would be like trying to kill her.
"I'm not going, I absolutely refuse to go."
Qin Qiaoqiao waved her hands frantically, looking to Duan Zhiyu for help.
"Captain, do you think it's a bit inappropriate for a girl like Qiaoqiao to go to the pigsty?"
Duan Zhiyu stepped forward and handed the captain a pack of cigarettes.
"What are you doing? Trying to bribe me in front of so many people? Duan Zhiqing, there's something seriously wrong with your thinking."
“No job is inherently superior or inferior, and there’s no such thing as unsuitable or unsuitable. Since Duan wants to help, let’s go work in the pigsty with Qin.”
Gu Xianjin snorted coldly, turned around and left with his hands behind his back.
"Qiu Shui, come with me, Group A is over here."
After watching the spectacle, Chen Fenglan, feeling smug, dragged Ruan Qiushui into the fields.
"I wonder if Qin Zhiqing can handle it."
Liu Pandi's eyes darted around as she watched Qin Qiaoqiao's retreating figure.
“Chen, you should stick with Wang Jun. As for the new educated youth Ruan, you should stick with Gu Changfeng.”
The person in charge of the group was Aunt Wu Guihua, who was the team leader and had a close personal relationship with Xie Xiuying.
Just after the groups were divided, Xie Xiuying came to her for help, saying that she wanted to put the two of them together so that Changfeng could do more work.
Wu Guihua already intended to take good care of Ruan Qiushui, and now that Gu Changfeng was willing to put in more effort, she would definitely do her best to make it happen.
She had watched Changfeng grow up from a young age, and knew his character better than anyone.
It would be best if the two of them could get together. Even if they don't, Changfeng is a child who can withstand setbacks.
Ruan Qiushui received a small bag of vegetable seeds and followed Gu Changfeng, who was carrying a hoe, towards the plot of land that had been allocated to her.
"for you."
Gu Changfeng turned around and handed Ruan Qiushui a boiled egg.
"Did you bring this especially for me?"
Ruan Qiushui took the egg and touched it; it was still warm.
This man looks rough and cold, but he's actually quite considerate.
"Um."
"Leave all the work in the fields to me. I'll go plow the land first. You just sit here and pretend to be a scorer when he comes over."
He was capable of supporting the young educated youth; he didn't need her to work at all.
Unfortunately, my position is not legitimate, so I can only help with the work.
"I can forget about slacking off, but I can promise to try my best not to hold you back."
With such a large piece of land, how long would it take Gu Changfeng to manage it?
Ruan Qiushui looked around and then followed the example of the aunties around her.
First, scatter the vegetable seeds, then fill the hole with your feet.
This job looks simple, but it requires frequent bending over.
I had to rest several times along the way, and my back was so sore that I couldn't straighten up.
Ruan Qiushui looked up at Gu Changfeng in front of her. He had already turned over half of the land, while she had only sown one-fifth of it.
The sun was shining brightly, and Ruan Qiushui felt her throat was very dry.
Watching the aunties next to me chatting and laughing, occasionally taking a sip of water, I sighed inwardly at my lack of experience and inadequate preparation.
"Are you tired? Go take a rest over there, I'll take care of the rest."
Gu Changfeng wiped his sweat, looked at Ruan Qiushui who had a worried expression, and walked over.
"You haven't even turned half the soil yet, are you sure you can manage?"
Turning the soil is hard work, so you don't run out of steam, or it will be embarrassing.
"Heh, you'll find out whether it works or not later."
Whether a man is capable or not is not something that can be proven by words alone.
"Then I'll go and rest first."
Ruan Qiushui turned and fled.
She doesn't want to be the kind of girl who understands everything instantly, but what can she do if she just does understand?
Resting under a tree by the field, Ruan Qiushui took a handkerchief from her pocket and wiped away her sweat.
Relying on Gu Changfeng's help all this time isn't sustainable, so Ruan Qiushui thought for a moment and decided to ask the brigade leader to give him a different job tomorrow.
It doesn't matter if she has fewer work points, she doesn't rely on work points for a living.
"Good taste, very considerate."
Chen Fenglan also felt tired, so she walked over and sat down next to Ruan Qiushui, jokingly.
"Ha, if we're talking about thoughtfulness, I think Comrade Wang Jun is the real thoughtful one. I wonder if such a thoughtful man likes Sister Chen?"
The two groups were separated by only a patch of land, so she probably didn't see it.
"You sharp-tongued girl."
Chen Fenglan looked around and whispered in Ruan Qiushui's ear.
"I'm dating Wang Jun."
After saying that, she lowered her head shyly, her face flushed.
"Wow, you kept it a secret pretty well."
Ruan Qiushui nudged Chen Fenglan's waist with her elbow.
"Tell me honestly, was it the day I went to the Gu family?"
The two of them seemed off that day. Later, Wang Jun even called Chen Fenglan away, clearly to confess his feelings.
"yes."
Chen Fenglan glared at Ruan Qiushui with embarrassment, thinking, "This girl is so clever."
"Have you told your parents? When are you getting married?"
Ruan Qiushui still offered her blessings to Chen Fenglan.
Wang Jun looks like an honest man who loves his wife dearly; I'm sure he'll treat her well after marriage.
"I've already written to my parents, and I estimate they'll be coming over in a few days."
Chen Fenglan is the third child in her family, with two older sisters and two younger brothers and sisters.
She wasn't valued at home, otherwise they wouldn't have sent her to the countryside.
Wang Jun treated her well, and she felt loved and valued by him.
Therefore, she was willing to give up the opportunity to return to the city and stay in the brigade.
"Okay, let me know when you've decided on a date, I'll definitely go and give my gift."
After joking and playing around with Chen Fenglan for a while, Gu Changfeng finished sowing the seeds.
"Ding ding ding".
"Time to finish work."
The scorekeeper rang the bell.
"Let's go, we need to hurry back and cook. We'll have to rest for a bit before we have to go back to work."
Chen Fenglan has to cook for five people; if she doesn't hurry, she won't have time to rest.
"Why."
Before Ruan Qiushui could even say goodbye to Gu Changfeng, Chen Fenglan pulled her away.
As soon as the group arrived at the entrance of the former educated youth center, they saw Duan Zhiyu and Qin Qiaoqiao sitting inside.
Qin Qiaoqiao cried her heart out with red eyes, and Duan Zhiyu was impatient but had no choice but to comfort her.
