Otherwise, given Ruan Zhiqing's work ethic, he could easily earn fifteen work points a day!
In their brigade, there were a few men who were good at their work and could earn twelve work points every day.
However, compared to the educated youth Ruan, they are still a little lacking.
In those days, every family wanted to have a son, not only to carry on the family line, but also for labor.
The more able-bodied men a family has, the more work points they earn, and the more grain they can receive.
The more money a family receives at the end of the year, the more prosperous their lives will be.
However, in a production brigade, money and grain are finite. If his family gets more, your family gets less!
Were those educated youth who came to the countryside there to support the construction?
No, they're clearly here to steal their food.
So tell me, how could the people in the production team have a good impression of the educated youth?
In particular, the educated youth who were sent to the countryside at the beginning had a poor understanding of themselves and caused a lot of trouble.
Now, hearing that Ruan Miaomiao is clearly capable, but would rather do less work in order not to compete with them for work points, they feel extremely at ease!
These are the good educated youth, the kind of educated youth that Jianshan Brigade should have!
They declared in their hearts that from now on, Ruan Zhiqing would be a member of Jianshan Brigade!
Ruan Miaomiao felt that everyone was more friendly towards her, so she worked even harder at digging potatoes. She finished the three-centimeter-long task in two hours and then went to return the potatoes with her hoe.
Perhaps because he was badly beaten by Ruan Miaomiao yesterday, Shen Qingming deliberately kept his distance from Ruan Miaomiao when he went to his mission today.
Therefore, they had no idea about what had just happened.
Seeing that Ruan Miaomiao had only been working for two hours, she was already carrying her hoe and heading back home. She was secretly furious: her own hands were blistered, and the blisters were broken by the hoe. She had to grit her teeth and endure the pain to dig potatoes and earn work points. But Ruan Miaomiao did nothing and just went back home after one trip.
Fuming with anger, yet not daring to confront the person directly involved, Shen Qingming could only complain to Zhou Shuhua, who was perched on his embankment:
"Well, I'd be happy to help Comrade Ruan Miaomiao earn work points, but I'm worried that if word gets out about her lack of enthusiasm for production, people will think she's bourgeois and it will affect her reputation!"
Zhou Shuhua is the daughter of the accountant of Jianshan Brigade. She has just graduated from high school and thinks she has read a few more books, but she looks down on the people in the production team.
As luck would have it, he was drawn to Shen Qingming's melancholic, scholarly air.
I went to town yesterday and when I came back I learned that Shen Qingming had been beaten. After hearing the whole story, I didn't think Shen Qingming was a scumbag who deceived girls. On the contrary, I felt sorry for him.
Her heart, which had begun to sympathize with Shen Qingming, gradually leaned towards him.
Early in the morning, when the tasks were being assigned, she stood behind Shen Qingming and watched which piece of land he chose before asking for the land next to his.
While working, he also chatted with Shen Qingming for a long time.
At this moment, in Zhou Shuhua's mind, Shen Qingming was a pitiful person who was talented but not appreciated, unloved by his parents and family, betrayed by his girlfriend, and cut off from his childhood friends.
The cause of all this was the violent woman, Ruan Miaomiao.
As for myself, I am the hero who saved Shen Qingming from dire straits!
Relying on her father being the brigade accountant, Zhou Shuhua never took the educated youth seriously.
Upon hearing Shen Qingming's words, he immediately straightened up, leaning against his hoe, and shouted at Ruan Miaomiao:
"Comrade Ruan Miaomiao, you've only been working for a short while, and you're already rushing to finish?"
"What? Do you think that because Shen Zhiqing is helping you earn work points, you don't have to do any work yourself?"
"Comrade Ruan Miaomiao, this won't do. Escaping labor is shameful. Hurry up and grab your hoe and go back to work!"
...
When Zhou Shuhua shouted, she glared at Ruan Miaomiao with jealousy: "You little bitch, you look like a seductive vixen, not like a proper woman at all."
Ruan Miaomiao was rushing home excitedly when she didn't expect that a Cheng Yaojin would suddenly appear on her way.
After piecing together the novel's plot, she recognized that the person who called her was Zhou Shuhua, the character in the novel who had a crush on Shen Qingming.
However, unexpectedly, Zhou Shuhua had developed feelings for Shen Qingming so early on.
However, upon seeing Shen Qingming pretending to be nonchalant while digging potatoes under Zhou Shuhua's field ridge, Ruan Miaomiao instantly understood: it must have been that scumbag who said something again.
Instantly, he shouted back at the top of his lungs:
"Shen Qingming, you lazy bum who's determined to live off women your whole life, can't you live without them?"
You just coaxed Aunt Yuhua to stand up for you yesterday and the day before, and today you've switched targets and got another woman to stand up for you?
What? When we were in school, we were learning knowledge, but you were learning how to be a duck?
Yesterday, in front of so many people, he said he didn't have the money to pay me back, but he would pay me back three work points every day. How did it become that he's helping me earn work points today?
"If you keep ruining my reputation like this, I'll make you pay me back!"
As soon as Ruan Miaomiao finished speaking, her aunt, who had heard the commotion, ran over and mocked Shen Qingming:
“The educated youth Ruan had already finished his work.”
Shen, also known as Ruan, was a kind-hearted educated youth. Knowing you were poor and couldn't afford to pay, she was willing to let you pay with three work points each day. Otherwise, with your limited workload, Ruan could have dug it up with just two strokes of her shovel and a little water!
Shen Qingming didn't expect Ruan Miaomiao to be so uncivilized. It was Zhou Shuhua who called out to her, so why was she cursing him?
Moreover, why would the people in the production team help Ruan Miaomiao humiliate herself?
Being humiliated in front of everyone again, Shen Qingming's face was full of shame and indignation, and his mouth was trembling with anger.
This sight broke Zhou Shuhua's heart.
