Her hands had been cut in several places by the grass, and now it hurt every time she moved. When she saw Su Li wearing gloves before, she wondered why Su Li, who knew that gloves were needed for work and had bought them herself, didn't remind her.
Was she doing it on purpose? They clearly had a good relationship back then.
As she thought about it, she started crying again, feeling wronged. But she couldn't stop working; the team leader had said she wasn't allowed to go back until she finished.
By the time Su Li and Chen Shengnan finished their work, Su Jiaojiao and the others had only finished less than half of their work.
These two are really dragging their feet!
Su Li ignored them and went with Chen Shengnan to hand in the task to the group leader. After having her work points recorded by the scorekeeper, she went back.
Su Jiaojiao glared hatefully at Su Li's departing figure. It was all because of that bitch; otherwise, she wouldn't have had to suffer like this.
On the way, Su Li said gratefully to Chen Shengnan, "Thank you for helping me today. Let me treat you to lunch!"
"No need. I'm just lending a hand since you're new here. I won't help you anymore once you're more familiar with the place."
She spoke expressionlessly, leaving Su Li with no choice but to pretend to take a few milk candies from her pocket, but actually from her spatial storage, and hand them to Chen Shengnan; "Thank you so much for today. I bought these candies when I came. Try them."
Chen Shengnan didn't take it, but Su Li stuffed it directly into her hand and turned to run towards her own yard.
Chen Shengnan peeled a piece of candy and put it in her mouth; "So sweet."
From childhood to adulthood, her older sisters could eat pastries and sweets, but she couldn't; her older sisters could wear dresses, but she couldn't.
Her parents taught her to be independent and self-reliant like a boy from a young age, which she didn't understand when she was little, but she came to understand as she grew older.
The parents, just to prove a point—because they didn't have a son and were looked down upon—risked their lives to have three children, only to find they were all daughters.
The mother was ridiculed as an old hag who couldn't bear a son, and the father was mocked for having no male heir.
As a result, her parents were obsessed and always raised her as their son, not wanting her to be inferior to other people's sons.
That's why she was given the name "Chen Shengnan," meaning she must surpass men.
She was competitive in everything she did, whether it was working, studying, or fighting; she never lost.
Su Li returned to the courtyard, went into her room, locked the door, and then entered her spatial dimension. She was a little tired from working this morning, and although she was wearing gloves, her hands still had some red marks. She drank a cup of diluted spiritual spring water, and the fatigue immediately disappeared.
Looking at the vegetables in the field, the first batch is already ready to eat, and the tomatoes are ripe too.
The seeds planted later are also growing well, and I remember I still have quite a few seeds left from the last purchase.
She decided to plant more green beans, cucumbers, eggplants, etc., so she could cook more vegetables and have more space, and enjoy vegetable freedom even in winter.
I took out the orange seeds I had left over from last time. I wonder if these can grow into fruit trees.
But to give it a try, she chose another piece of land and put up a sign that read "Orchard".
I cut the apple I bought last time in half, removed the core, dug a hole, and planted it.
He poured another drop of diluted spiritual spring water onto the newly planted fruit.
Only after the space kicked her out did she take the tomatoes produced by the space and head towards the kitchen. She planned to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes for lunch, and also eat the leftover river shrimp and mixed grain rice from yesterday.
That's the good thing about the space; the rice you put in will come out exactly the same way you put it in. So she can steam more rice from now on.
That way, if I get home early, I can just cook the dishes, saving time and effort.
She had just finished stir-frying the tomatoes and eggs and was carrying the dish towards her room when she bumped into Zhou Yuting, who had just finished work.
Just as Su Li was about to leave, Zhou Yuting stopped her; "Su Li, could you sell me this dish?"
She didn't want to say that, but since she went to the countryside, she hasn't had a proper meal.
She worked all morning and couldn't take her eyes off the scrambled eggs with tomatoes in Su Li's hand.
After saying "I won't sell," she paused for a moment; "I can lend you the pot for a while. When you buy a pot, I'll set up a new stove here."
Even if I lend her the pot, she doesn't know how to cook.
"Su Li, I'll give you five yuan. How about you sell me that dish?"
Su Li; "......."
Seeing her expectant look, Su Li finally nodded.
Su Li gave the dishes to Zhou Yuting and then served her a lunchbox of mixed grain rice from her room.
She went to the kitchen and cooked a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
All of this was observed by Zhao Meilan, who was standing outside the courtyard looking for Zhou Yuting.
She had made up her mind: all she wanted was a meal and a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and that fool was willing to give her five yuan.
If I cook for her every day, wouldn't I not only get to eat for free, but I could also squeeze all the money out of her?
Thinking of this, she turned and left.
Zhou Yuting took the food and began to eat at the stone table outside the courtyard.
Whether it was because she was starving or something else, she thought this was the best tomato and egg stir-fry she had ever eaten.
And this mixed grain rice, I don't know how Su Li made it, it doesn't hurt my throat at all, and it smells especially good.
After finishing her meal, all her fatigue disappeared.
At this moment, Su Li was also eating in her room; anything produced by the space had to be of the highest quality.
The texture and flavor are absolutely amazing.
After eating, she lay on the bed to rest for a while, as there was another plot of land waiting for her in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, Su Li and Chen Shengnan were much more in sync, and they didn't chat about anything else.
They got right to work as soon as they arrived, and Su Li could clearly feel that Chen Shengnan was working even harder than in the morning, as if someone was chasing after her.
She wasn't someone who held others back. Of course, it was also possible that the spiritual spring water in the space had changed her physique. She could feel that she was stronger than before, and she didn't feel any strain when doing work.
Even so, Chen Shengnan still surpassed her by a large margin.
After finishing her work, Chen Shengnan walked up to Su Li and asked her, "Want to come up the mountain together?"
"Sure, but it'll be late by the time we finish the work... How about we go another day when we have a day off?"
"No need, we'll go this afternoon."
After saying that, she stopped explaining and started helping Su Li with the work. Perhaps influenced by Chen Shengnan, Su Li also worked faster and faster.
When the two went to record their work points, the clerk was shocked. Only half of the afternoon had passed, and others had only completed half of their work.
These two actually finished the job; Chen Shengnan is known for being a fast worker.
But these newly arrived educated youth shouldn't have arrived so quickly, in theory.
You really can't judge a book by its cover.
Su Jiaojiao, standing to the side, was furious. How could Su Li be so lucky to be paired with a teammate who was even more manly than a man?
Looking at their incompetent teammates, neither of them could rely on the other.
Just as he was angrily watching the direction Su Li had gone, a fat, bloated face appeared in front of him.
"Su, you must be exhausted! Let me help you."
