"Even if it's just a lucky break, these thirty catties of grain are worth it!" Chen Dajiang almost cried with joy. After waiting anxiously for these past few days, he had actually given up hope. If the thirty catties of grain were gone, they would be gone.
Seeing the water spraying out, he quickly urged, "Turn it off quickly, save some water."
Lin Yuxi turned off the switch.
"This machine is good. It would be even better if it were closer to the water source. But the water pipe is so far away. Could it be moved to the top of the slope?" Chen Dajiang gritted his teeth and looked at the machine. If this could be moved to the hillside for watering, it would eliminate the need for manual labor and reduce some of the burden.
Lin Yuxi nodded, "Okay, but it will probably consume more diesel fuel."
"It's alright. If it can reduce manpower, what's a little diesel fuel?" Chen Dajiang readily agreed. He could just exchange some grain for diesel fuel later.
at this time.
Zhao Xiaotong was carrying buckets of water back from the loess slope. He was exhausted from carrying several buckets of water, and his shoulders were chafed raw. Ever since Lin Yuxi proposed planting trees, the loess slope now needs to be watered not only for the corn seedlings but also for the trees.
She was slow at carrying water, and out of twelve full work points a day, she could only earn five or six at most, and she went hungry all year round.
The thought of this made her angry.
Why shouldn't Lin Yuxi fetch water?
She hadn't seen her work for the past few days, but He Meifang turned a blind eye, as if she had gotten in through connections.
She was always carrying water or hauling manure, and she was exhausted every day.
Lost in her own thoughts, she didn't notice that her feet were slippery and her shoes were stuck in the mud. She fell backward and crashed heavily to the ground.
"Ouch, that hurts." Zhao Xiaotong landed hard on her bottom, her tailbone throbbing painfully. Her eyes instantly turned red, and she was covered in mud from head to toe. As soon as she got up, she saw Lin Yuxi standing not far from the well, looking at her.
For a moment, she forgot where it hurt; all she knew was that Lin Yuxi had seen her fall.
Chen Dajiang also looked over at the sound and saw that it was Zhao Xiaotong who had fallen. He stopped himself from telling Yang Daniu to come over.
After all, men and women are different. If he helps her up and then tries to pin it on Yang Daniu, he won't be able to explain himself.
Zhao Xiaotong tried to get up from the ground, but failed several times. Feeling like she was being watched like a monkey, she became angry and embarrassed, saying, "Lin Yuxi! You saw me fall, didn't you know to come and help me?"
The two were three or four meters apart, but Zhao Xiaotong just looked at Lin Yuxi without any intention of helping.
"Don't you know why I won't help you? I'm already being kind by not hitting you or kicking you when you're down. You still expect me to help you?" Lin Yuxi said coldly, not even glancing at her.
Should she listen to what she's saying?
Send it back to the factory. A one-click factory reset will bring your brain back to normal.
They've slandered her time and again, putting her in the eye of the storm, and now they know they need her help?
Lin Yuxi didn't help; she just picked up the hose and left.
As the commune director, Chen Dajiang looked at the situation. He didn't know whether to help her up or not, but he couldn't just ignore it either. He simply said, "Comrade Zhao Xiaotong, I'll go and get a woman to help you up."
Zhao Xiaotong moved slightly, and the excruciating pain in her ankle caused her face to turn red.
