Chapter 8: Little ghost, best suited for digging potatoes



Qiu Yantang really didn’t care whether there was food during the winter, but whether the food was enough for everyone to eat.

Do your job well and fulfill your responsibilities in your position.

"Don't worry, little ancestor. The vegetables we grow at home may be a little late, but they will definitely grow. I'll dry them and save them for you to eat in the winter."

Qiuhua also spoke up, saying that others couldn't see her, but if anything happened, she had to take care of it for the little ancestor. She died of illness, but her body was still okay as a ghost.

"Village chief! Why isn't Qiu Yantang working?" Zhang Tiansheng looked at Qiu Yantang and Qiu Guangdong chatting in the fields. He felt psychologically unbalanced when they were working with great effort.

"Ahem!" Qiu Guangdong glared at him. He had disliked this man for a long time.

He follows the young wives in the village every day. Fortunately, those girls and wives are strong-willed and don't look down on him.

"Qiu Zhiqing is not feeling well, so I arranged for him to cut grass for the pigs. He finished cutting grass this morning. Do you have any objections?"

The assignment of educated youth was usually done by the team leader, but the population in these mountains was not particularly large, so the team leader was usually the village chief.

The distribution of labor is naturally fair and just, but that is only for outsiders. Lan Qiqi and Fan Tuan are very weak and also follow them to do the heavy work in the fields.

"I'm not feeling well either, and I want to pick pig grass too!"

Lin Jing looked at Zhang Tiansheng from the side and said with disdain, "Zhang Tiansheng, picking grass for pigs only earns three work points. Don't starve to death before the New Year!"

"It's all work, how can there be any distinction between high and low? I demand the same work points."

Zhang Tiansheng stretched his neck and shouted at Qiu Guangdong, saying that his family was poor and if he only earned 3 work points a day, he wouldn't even be able to support himself.

"You're kidding me! Stop working in the fields and go dig manure. You'll get the same work points!"

Qiu Guangdong doesn't tolerate him. What kind of person is he? Every day he is either thinking about cheating or staring at how much work others do.

"Village chief, you are abusing your power!" He couldn't handle digging out manure.

"Qiu Yantang, how about we switch?"

Seeing that Qiu Guangdong ignored him, Zhang Tiansheng quickly spoke up and said that if they wanted to change themselves, Qiu Guangdong would not have any objections. Then they could have a good talk with the girl who recorded the work points and have the work points credited to him.

Qiu Yantang kicked him in the lower abdomen, "Who are you with? Who are you plotting against?"

She has met so many people, and she knows very well what Zhang Tiansheng wants to do.

Looking at Zhang Tiansheng lying on the ground, Qiuhua wanted to kick him a few more times, but Qiu Yantang held her back. The male ghost Qingfeng and the female ghost Yanling actually had no physical form.

They worked for Qiu Yantang, and it was Qiu Yantang who gave them the ability. If they used the ability to harm others, she would have to bear the consequences. She didn't know whether the ancestors of the Qiu family and the ascended master could help her solve the problem.

So it’s better not to cross some red lines.

"Good fight!" There was a cheer from all around. Qiujia Village actually has a very complicated structure. Maybe some people came here to escape from the world a hundred years ago, so their surnames are also complicated.

There are also some descendants of the Manchu royal family and orthodox Eight Banners descendants, who are all hunters on horseback.

They despise Zhang Tiansheng, a weakling who stares at women every day.

Zhang Tiansheng was lying on the ground, groaning, "Ouch, Village Chief, do you think you're not feeling well?"

Qiu Guangdong glanced at him with disdain, "Even a rabbit bites when it's angry!"

"Qiu Yantang!" Zhang Tiansheng ignored him and stood up directly, swinging his fist to hit Qiu Yantang. Qiuhua was already standing in front of Qiu Yantang.

At this moment, Zhang Tiansheng saw that everyone around him was looking at him ferociously.

He quickly put his hand down, "I'm saying if you don't want to, just say it, there's no need to resort to violence..."

"It's already moving, so what do you want to do?"

"It's okay, it's okay..." Zhang Tiansheng said this on his face, but what he was thinking in his heart was that if Qiu Yantang fell into his hands one day, he would definitely not let her have an easy time.

"Village chief, I've been beaten and I'm sick. Can I ask for a leave?"

It would be good to have two days of rest. This job is not for human beings. He is so tired that he wants to run away secretly.

"No!" Qiu Guangdong said. He seemed very active when he wanted to beat someone up, but now he's crying miserably. No way!

What's more, the person he wanted to attack was the young ancestor of Qiu Village.

"Jin San, keep an eye on him and make sure he does his job well!"

The Jin San mentioned by Qiu Guangdong is a big and strong man, a mixed-race of Manchu and Mongolian. His figure is more like that of a Mongolian. He is very intimidating wherever he goes.

"Don't worry, Uncle Qiu. We're busy right now, and we definitely won't let him hold us back!"

Jin San looked at Zhang Tiansheng's position, and also took care of Lin Jing and Lu Jinnian.

Lin Jing and Lu Jinnian really had no words to express their grievances. They could have taken a break occasionally, but now they simply couldn't even think about it.

They are afraid of having their work points deducted.

"How many days will it take to harvest these potatoes?" Qiu Yantang asked, with Qiu Guangdong following beside her.

"With all the people in our village, plus a few educated youth, it will take at least 10 days to collect them."

So long...

"Look, Guangdong, give me a piece of land, away from the others."

"No, little ancestor, how can you do heavy work?"

In Qiu Guangdong's eyes, all ancestors must be worshipped, and Qiu Yantang is no exception. If Qiu Yantang is asked to work in the fields.

His father and other elders had to beat him with their crutches, which was really not worth it.

"Don't worry, I won't do it."

Qiu Guangdong then gave her a piece of land with a lot of potatoes. He felt that the little ancestor was a lazy person and would definitely stop working if she was tired.

"Little ancestor, what do you want the land for?" Qiuhua was also very puzzled. Qiu Yantang didn't look like someone who could dig potatoes.

After hearing Qiuhua's words, Qiu Yantang pointed in a direction. There were some shadows in that direction, but the distance was too far and it was not very clear.

"There are a few poor little devils out there who are perfect for digging potatoes!"

Not even the kind that gives ghost money!

Qiu Yantang felt that he was very kind and did not send them to Siberia to dig potatoes, but only dug potatoes in Qiujia Village.

They were brought together by special means.

"You, the potato diggers, get to work! Rewards for good work! Bad work..."

When Qiu Yantang said this, he gestured at his neck with his hand.

"Reduce to ashes!"

They have been here for so long that they have understood some of Hua Guoyu, and Qiu Yantang is naturally intimidating to them, so they dare not disobey.

Besides...it's just digging potatoes!

They are familiar with this job.
