Lin Xiaoxiao responded: "I'm doing quite well here. I slept until dawn as soon as I lay down. What's wrong?"
Lu Juhua looked left and right to make sure there was no one around, then whispered to Lin Xiaoxiao, "Can I get a refund for this house?"
"If you can get a refund, I suggest you do so."
Lin Xiaoxiao asked suspiciously, "Why? I'm staying here peacefully, and I've already paid. Why should I get a refund?"
Lu Juhua tugged at Lin Xiaoxiao's sleeve: "What I'm about to tell you, you can't tell anyone else. I heard that this house... has something evil inside..."
"Don't tell me I told you, I just found out too. I heard it scared someone half to death."
Lin Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow. The news about her house being haunted spread so quickly? This speed of dissemination is no slower than the internet in later generations.
Lu Juhua, being a veteran educated youth, naturally knew about village news faster.
She heard early this morning that Wang Dabao and the others had been injured yesterday.
That's probably not a lie; Zhang San is still lying in his own bed.
Therefore, everyone firmly believed that there was something evil in Lin Xiaoxiao's room, and many people in the educated youth compound were gloating.
They say Lin Xiaoxiao is living such a comfortable and glamorous life now, but who knows, when that filthy thing comes out, it will definitely be so scared that it will wet itself and then come back to the educated youth compound in a miserable state with its bedding.
Lu Juhua also wanted to ask Lin Xiaoxiao, so that they wouldn't have to make room for her later.
Lin Xiaoxiao explained, "That's not true at all. I haven't felt anything these past two days, and I've been sleeping very well."
Lu Juhua was surprised that Lin Xiaoxiao had stayed for two days and hadn't noticed anything.
Was it just good luck? Or was the evil spirit targeting people with ill intentions? She saw it for herself; Zhang San's teeth were broken, and she heard that Wang Dabao lost four teeth.
Lu Juhua felt that as the team leader of the female educated youth, she should come and ask.
She has already given the warning, and she doesn't want to get involved in the rest, nor can she control others.
It's better for Lin Xiaoxiao to stay outside; it will give them more space to sleep.
Lu Juhua: "Okay, then. You can handle it yourself."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded: "Mm."
By this time, almost everyone had arrived, and Captain Wang began to speak, going on and on for more than ten minutes before telling everyone to go and collect their tools and get to work.
Lin Xiaoxiao was assigned to Team 8, and Wangjia Village made a total of 15 teams.
She followed her team to get tools and went to work with them.
The current months are mainly for arable land, planting crops such as wheat, corn, and soybeans.
When they arrived at the field, even Lin Xiaoxiao, who had seen the world, couldn't help but sigh.
This land stretches as far as the eye can see.
If I were to remove this, wouldn't my hands be peeling off a layer of skin?
It wasn't just Lin Xiaoxiao who was amazed; the new educated youth were also deeply moved by this place.
Seeing the educated youth like this, the villagers nearby couldn't help but say, "It's no use yelling; you still have to do it."
There was an uncle who knew that Xiaoxiao had fixed the tractor. He smiled and said to Lin Xiaoxiao, "The conditions were much harder before. Everything was done by hand with a hoe. If the village had cattle, they could use them. But if they didn't have cattle, they couldn't rely on anything."
"Now that the village has repaired the tractor, we can help out a little bit."
"Tractors can do this much faster than we can."
"We just need to improve the land, remove stones and weeds, and fill in the holes so that it will be easier for the tractor to operate and take less time."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoxiao finally felt relieved.
Soon the team leaders of Team 8 began assigning tasks.
Several girls were assigned to remove weeds and pick up stones.
Lin Xiaoxiao thought she had found an easy job.
But after working for half an hour, she changed her mind. The job looked simple and didn't require much strength, but it was actually quite hard on her back. She had to keep bending over and straightening up to throw things away.
She felt her back was about to give out again. After a long day, she had no time to enjoy life and went straight to bed when she got home.
Lin Xiaoxiao thought it would be better to go and farm the land. Farming is farming a fixed area, and with her physical strength, she could definitely finish it sooner.
Finishing sooner means getting some rest sooner.
However, picking up stones and clearing weeds makes it a bit difficult to speed things up.
Lin Xiaoxiao's back couldn't take it anymore, so she straightened up to rest. The old woman next to her saw this and knew she couldn't go on: "Lin Zhiqing, if you can't hold on, take a break and have some water."
"You'll get used to this job in a few days. I was the same way when I was young."
Lin Xiaoxiao rubbed her lower back: "Thank you, Auntie. I just need to rest. This work isn't tiring, it's just a bit tedious."
This old lady was a good friend of Grandma Da Niu. She knew that Lin Xiaoxiao had traded malted milk powder with their family. Not only was she willing to trade, but she also gave them extra malted milk powder, which showed that this little girl was a good person.
When the old woman saw Lin Xiaoxiao's thin and small appearance, she couldn't help but sigh. Those educated youths all had their eyes on the top of their heads. It was rare to find one who was willing to associate with them, these peasants. Most importantly, this child didn't take advantage of others and was willing to help them.
The old woman said, "You're a good kid. You've helped the village repair tractors and are willing to replace parts. It's no big deal for you to rest a little longer."
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded. The villagers weren't as difficult to get along with as she had imagined. They would remember any good deeds she did and always try to help her within their means.
Lin Xiaoxiao had only been resting in the shade for a few minutes when she heard a young voice from the side.
"Lin Zhiqing, you've been working, and the progress is already slow. Why do you keep taking breaks?"
"Look at you, does anyone else rest as quickly as you?"
"If you can't even do such an easy job, what else can you do?"
Upon hearing this, the old woman spoke up for Lin Xiaoxiao, "Wang Lili, don't talk nonsense. Lin Xiaoxiao is a fast worker. She just started, so she definitely needs time to adapt."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Wang Lili and saw her displeased expression. She was puzzled, as she hadn't said a single word to this person.
How can someone who doesn't even know you come here to cause trouble?
Wang Lili couldn't help but say, "Look at her, who else takes such a long break? Captain, you have to deduct points for this."
At this moment, the captain of Team 8 heard the noise and came over.
Hearing what Wang Lili said gave me a headache. What was there to say about such a trivial matter?
Captain Wang had specifically instructed him to take good care of this educated youth, Lin.
