Su Miaoyan turned and left.
Ma Yingchun stared blankly at Su Miaoyan's departing figure for a few seconds before snapping out of her daze and taking a bite of the apple in her hand.
In an instant, the sweetness spread through her throat, and the cloying juice seemed to overwhelm her.
Her pupils contracted, as if in disbelief, as she stared at the apple in her hand.
Why does this apple taste different from the apples she knows?!
She took another bite, and that deep-seated illusion grew stronger and stronger.
Until she finished the apple, Ma Yingchun felt that the sun overhead was not the sun, the saxaul tree was not the saxaul tree, and the pit was not the pit.
I felt incredibly strong.
He picked up the shovel and got right to work.
Then, everyone saw that Ma Yingchun, whom they looked down on, worked as fast as Su Miaoyan had just done.
Everyone: ...
Looking behind me, I realized I had only planted a small amount, and I couldn't help but feel ashamed.
They must never look down on others again!
Because looking down on others is looking down on yourself!
"Hurry up, get to work! Every little bit helps!"
"Otherwise, we'll be laughed at by those guys in the family compound tomorrow, they'll say we're not even as good as Mrs. Ma!"
"That's right, that's right! What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and plant the saxaul trees! We're here to respond to the nation's call!"
Everyone started to get to work. At this moment, someone noticed Gu Shanqing, who, like Su Miaoyan, had also thrown away her straw hat and rolled up her sleeves.
"Why did Gu Shanqing also throw away her straw hat, just like that young lady? Chief Lu's wife went crazy, and she went crazy too?"
Many people knew about the relationship between Gu Shanqing and Lu Ting, and with a knowing "Oh dear," they said, "The two of them are secretly competing with each other!"
"Compare?"
"yes!"
Someone gossiped, "Chief Lu is the ideal son-in-law for many chiefs. Although the two haven't gone on a blind date, they have met. Everyone knows that Chief Lu didn't take a liking to Miss Gu back then. Gu Shanqing is clearly not convinced and is competing with Comrade Su!"
Oh, I see.
The people's gazes were meaningful.
Normally, given Gu Shanqing's family background, no one would dare to discuss it.
But now, Gu Shanqing is so far away from them, she definitely can't hear them.
Shouldn't we gossip about this?!
Miao Qihuai was also curious about these gossips. After listening to them, she thought about it and felt somewhat fortunate that she had transmigrated at the right time and hadn't had a chance to get close to Lu Ting.
After all, Lu Ting isn't someone everyone can look up to.
She put on her sun protection gear, picked up a sapling, and started working.
The group chatted and gossiped as they worked, but gradually they fell silent.
The sun is really too strong.
The sun shone down directly, turning the entire Gobi Desert into a blazing fire.
Without the support of the straw hat, Gu Shanqing initially felt fine, but as time went on, her body began to give way.
Her eyes were glazed as she stared ahead, her hands weak, and she was digging holes and planting saxaul trees with almost all her remaining consciousness.
In a daze, Su Miaoyan, who was not far away, was still not wearing a straw hat, but she was lively and energetic.
She seemed to be feeling dizzy.
No, I absolutely cannot let Su Miaoyan outshine me!
As the daughter of a high-ranking official, she must excel in everything!
Gu Shanqing gritted her teeth and continued with her work.
The scorching sun seemed to be turning her into a red-hot iron. Gu Shanqing wiped the sweat from her forehead and continued with her work.
To others, he appeared to be swaying precariously.
Some people noticed Gu Shanqing's condition and said, "Do you think Gu Shanqing has heatstroke? Look!"
Everyone followed the man's gaze and saw that Gu Shanqing was practically struggling to plant trees.
Although some people dislike Gu Shanqing, her father is the second-in-command of the military region.
If they had known that she had suffered heatstroke here and no one had come to her aid, the consequences for everyone present today would have been unimaginable.
"Come on, let's go take a look!"
Several women walked over with cold water.
Gu Shanqing's arms were sunburned and turned bright red, and even her face was red and covered with large beads of sweat.
But she was still digging holes and planting saxaul trees.
Several women quickly went up to her, saying, "Gu Shanqing, please put on your straw hat."
Looking at Su Miaoyan, who was already finishing up, Gu Shanqing shook her head, "I won't wear it!"
They continued digging holes and planting saxaul trees.
The women were at a loss; Comrade Gu was in this state, which was a clear sign of heatstroke.
They handed over their water cups, saying, "Comrade Gu, have some water. You don't look quite right. You're not wearing a straw hat. You should go back and rest soon."
Gu Shanqing shook her head.
"No need, I want to plant trees!"
Seeing that she looked completely insane, the others decided not to try to persuade her anymore.
They all sighed, walked back to their positions, and continued planting trees.
Su Miaoyan was unaware of Gu Shanqing's stubbornness; she had already finished planting the last saxaul tree.
With the blessing of the spiritual spring water, she didn't feel very tired, and her skin looked almost the same as when it hadn't been exposed to the sun.
After she finished doing all that, she quickly went over and put on the straw hat that had fallen to the ground, and pulled down her sleeves.
After getting the tools, I went to the registration desk.
As she walked over, everyone at the registration desk, except for Sang Xinxin, looked at her with disbelief.
Su Miaoyan pretended not to know and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, I should have planted a thousand trees. You can go and check them now."
A thousand trees!
One person planted a thousand trees!
Everyone at the registration office knew that Su Miaoyan had planted a lot of trees, but they didn't expect there to be so many!
Upon closer inspection, half of the area where trees were planted today is now covered with saxaul trees!
This was actually planted by Miss Su, a young lady from a wealthy family?!
That's really amazing.
Sang Xinxin, who was standing to the side, wasn't so surprised that Su Miaoyan had planted a thousand trees.
To her surprise, Su Miaoyan had been in the sun for so long, and apart from some sweat, her face showed no signs of sunburn.
This skin must be made of iron...
What to do? She's so envious!
She quickly wrote down the words "one thousand seedlings" for Su Miaoyan. After finishing, she said seriously, "Comrade Su, all one thousand seedlings must be alive. If they are dead seedlings, they will not count. We will only distribute the seedlings according to the number of living seedlings."
Su Miaoyan said no problem, she nodded, "Okay."
The registration staff were about to go check the live and dead seedlings when a frantic voice came from not far away.
"Help! Help! Gu Shanqing has fainted!"
Su Miaoyan, Sang Xinxin, and the other staff members immediately looked towards the source of the sound and saw a group of women rushing towards a dark figure, still shouting the same words they had just heard.
"Oh no, Comrade Gu has fainted. It must be heatstroke."
The registration staff immediately put on their straw hats and went over. When Su Miaoyan heard that Gu Shanqing had heatstroke, she felt a little helpless.
She wasn't wearing a straw hat because she wanted to finish her mission quickly.
