Chapter 184 I was just pretending



When Han Qiu finished working, he started acting, looking like he was about to faint at any moment.

"You..." Wang Juan just wanted to say a few words to Han Qiushi, but she didn't expect Han Qiushi to say such a long string of words.

He was so energetic when he was working, so what does it mean now that he's like this?

Wang Juan felt very uncomfortable, thinking that Han Qiushi was good at pretending. However, she couldn't express herself well. In the end, under everyone's suspicious gaze, she could only reluctantly check and measure Han Qiushi's height by 6 centimeters.

The male educated youth felt that Wang Juan was acting strangely today, but seeing that Han Qiushi was about to collapse, Zhang Sanqian quickly said, "Han educated youth, you should go back and rest well. Remember to drink plenty of water when you get back."

"If you have the energy, you can wash your body. I think you have heatstroke."

Wang Juan originally intended to make things difficult for Han Qiushi during the inspection, but after seeing what others said, she gave up the idea to avoid making herself the one at fault.

In the end, all I could do was wave goodbye and let them go.

Han Qiushi leaned against the tree and nodded repeatedly. After Wang Juan left, many people came to check on Han Qiushi.

"Are you alright? You were perfectly fine just now."

"Yes, I suddenly felt weak. It must be heatstroke."

After seeing that the people had walked away, Han Qiushi smiled at everyone and then returned to his normal demeanor.

"I'm fine, I was just faking it."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing?"

I'm a man myself, how could I not know what's going on in everyone's mind? Everyone else is already exhausted, and they still have to put on a show of being able to do it all, and doing great, so that they can get admiring glances from everyone.

Who knows, by the end of the year, they might even be awarded a title like "model worker".

But Han Qiushi was different. He did such a tiring and strenuous task of clearing land with ease, but Wang Juan was always panting heavily when she arrived.

"I used a little trick here. Normally, tasks are assigned based on how much work you can do."

"If the scorekeeper tells everyone that the tasks assigned to us can be completed quickly and are not tiring, what do you think the leader will think after hearing that? Will he assign me or all of us educated youth more tasks?"

“We get 5 work points for clearing this wasteland. If we are capable, we will get 2 more fen (a unit of land measurement) tomorrow, so we will get 5 work points.”

Han Qiushi didn't want to talk about Lin Xiaoxiao and Wang Juan.

He said all this right in front of everyone.

After Han Qiushi finished speaking, he got up from the ground and picked up his tools, heading home.

"My goodness, this Han educated youth is so smart, amazing!"

"This person figured out so much in just one day, while I only realized it after a year. My intelligence is completely outmatched."

"If he had come a few years earlier, we wouldn't have had to work so hard."

"I used to wonder why I was being assigned more and more work. I thought it was because there was a lot of work in the team. Turns out it was because I was working too hard."

Han Qiushi's remarks shocked the other educated youth, who all exclaimed that this man was truly brilliant.

Zhao Xiaojun pursed his lips and stared at Han Qiushi's back.

At first, he was very dismissive of Han Qiushi, thinking that he was just a good-looking guy and that he would be a complete weakling when it came to the crucial moment.

So what if you can talk? All you can do is spout those attention-grabbing gimmicks.

"Hey, isn't this something everyone already knows? Why are you all making such a fuss?" Zhao Xiaojun knew Han Qiushi was smart, but he was too arrogant, which was off-putting.

Zhao Xiaojun's voice wasn't loud, but all the educated youth around him heard it.

“Xiaojun, you’re right, but this is his first time meeting us. Who’s going to talk to him about this? We’re all educated youth together. It’s a good thing that we have smart people in our group.”

“If there are any new activities later, maybe Han, the educated youth, can lead us to take a shortcut,” one of the male educated youths said.

Han Qiushi is a hard worker, unlike some people who only do a little work and rely on women to support them when they have no money. What right do such people have to earn a living with their own strength?

After the male educated youth finished speaking, he rolled his eyes at Zhao Xiaojun's retreating figure.

Zhao Xiaojun could clearly see Li Hui's expression, and he couldn't help but frown. These people were just jealous because Sun Yue was well-off and would help them out.

He's clearly charming, and he sees many people wanting to do the same, but they don't have the opportunity. He's long been resentful of his own comfort, and frankly, he's just jealous.

He doesn't care even if someone gives him a disapproving look.

Han Qiushi, who had already returned home, knew nothing about these things. After arriving home, Han Qiushi filled a whole jar with water and drank it; it was an incredibly hot day.

Seeing that Lin Xiaoxiao had not returned, he fetched water and went to the kitchen sink to wipe himself down. He had been working all morning and was covered in sweat; if left for too long, he would have developed an unpleasant sour smell.

Lin Xiaoxiao is most sensitive to smells, so he has to make sure he doesn't smell bad in front of her.

In the morning, Lin Xiaoxiao went to cut pig feed with the children. It was cooler at the foot of the mountain than at home, and the group of people were reluctant to come down. She spent a lot of time reading there before going down the mountain to deliver the pig feed.

Ever since she learned that Han Qiushi had come here to protect the people in the cowshed, Lin Xiaoxiao had been observing them closely. She noticed that the people in the cowshed were doing the dirtiest and most tiring work, and everyone had a blank expression.

She tried to make eye contact with Jiang Li, but when Jiang Li saw her, he immediately turned away, rejecting Lin Xiaoxiao with his actions.
