He Wanqing had rolled three times on the kang. After reciting the health-preserving sutras in her mind several times, she got up from the kang painfully.
Alas~
I will never stay up late next time, she thought to herself as she got dressed.
Thinking that the team leader was going to hold a meeting, he quickly got dressed, got off the kang, washed up, and finally had two mouthfuls of corn porridge. With a pot of hot water hanging around his neck and a corn cake in his hand, he ate as he walked out.
When we arrived at the brigade headquarters, the brigade leader just started speaking.
She squeezed her way to He's mother, looked at He Daniu and the Xu family who were about to report her for not coming, and said silently that she would wait and see, while listening attentively to the opening remarks from above.
The three old rules: cheer people up, calm people down, threaten and intimidate those with ulterior motives, and end the meeting after encouraging everyone to work hard.
She was walking at the end and felt hungry. She looked at the crowd in front of her and thought about it. She decided not to go home and planned to get some food from the space to fill her stomach.
The Xu family members who were pulled out alone by the team leader earlier wanted to leave now, but the team leaders in front, behind, and on both sides were watching them closely, so they had no choice but to follow.
The people behind them saw this and shook their heads and sighed, saying that Qingxin's family had no relationship with the Xu family.
Those who have connections now hate not knowing them. It is too embarrassing. They were criticized by the team leader in front of several teams at the meeting. I don’t know how they could laugh.
When they arrived at the field, without waiting for instructions from their respective team leaders, everyone went to the field where they had worked yesterday and continued working.
Only the Xu family members were left behind, awaiting their final fate.
I don’t know if the team leader and his men did it on purpose, but they left them hanging on the dam until everyone went to work in the fields.
"Mom, what's going on today? Why are you still asking us to stand here at this hour? Shouldn't we be asked to go work in the fields?"
Xu Qiuhua looked at the people in the field who kept looking up at her. She looked at her mother with suspicion, then at the team leader and others who were leaving.
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
Looking at the people weeding and fertilizing in the fields, Zhu Sanni looked up at them, then lowered her head to communicate with the people around her. She always felt that those people were not saying good things.
But they were too guilty to go and question them, since they were still standing on the dam.
He Wanqing, who was helping her mother weed, looked at the Xu family members who were looking around, and raised the corners of her lips in understanding.
Is the captain trying to show off his power?
It’s a pity that the effect is not good.
Then he turned to look at He Erniu's sons and daughters-in-law.
Thinking about how he actually wanted to report her for not going to the meeting they had just had, she put the weeds that could be used to feed pigs into the basket, turned around, said a few words to her mother, and walked straight towards them.
The few people standing there looked at her back and shook their heads. Without saying anything, they bent down again and started weeding and fertilizing.
After the rain, the corn seedlings grew very fast. In just ten days, they were already above the knee and almost up to the thigh.
Weeding is also much more troublesome than before. You have to be careful not to dig up the corn seedlings, and also be careful not to leave any weeds behind, otherwise they will absorb the nutrients of the corn.
Also, be careful not to apply fertilizer to the wrong place to prevent the seedlings from not being fertilized and the weeds from being fertilized instead.
There are fewer people chatting in the fields now than before. Everyone is concentrating, fearing that they will be scolded if they make mistakes.
Even old farmers have to take naps sometimes.
He walked through the mud to where He Dazhui and others were working. He smiled when he saw them looking up at the Xu family from time to time and shoveling off half-tall corn seedlings.
A spring-like smile hung on her face, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, her thin lips slightly parted:
"Xu Dahua, what are you looking at? Could the weeds in the corn field be your relatives?
Otherwise, why are you so busy removing the corn seedlings and not the weeds?
Who doesn’t keep their eyes on the ground when weeding? Where are you looking with those worthless eyes of yours?
Do you also want to hang on the dam?
Otherwise, I will talk to the captain to prevent you from absent-mindedly shoveling the corn seedlings that were not drowned."
Meeting Xu Dahahua's vicious eyes, she curled her lips and smiled, looking at her sarcastically, pointing a slender jade finger at the corn seedlings under her feet.
The corners of his mouth opened and closed silently: "If you have the guts, just shout it out. I also want to know how the captain will deal with you."
Xu Dahua in the field looked at the seedlings under her feet, then at the arrogant He Wanqing. She was furious but didn't dare to say a word.
Wang Erniu, who couldn't bear to watch, looked at her unkindly while stepping on the corn seedlings under her feet:
"He Wanqing, stop spewing filth. My mother-in-law is your elder no matter what. How can you name her like that?
········"
Very good, she hasn't said anything to her yet, but she has already delivered herself to my door. I have never seen anyone so stupid.
"Wang Erni, if you are not convinced by what I said about Xu Dahua, just move your feet and see if what I said is true or not.
As for the elders, are you worthy?
They are just a bunch of ungrateful villains who are not worthy of being elders. If I remember correctly, our family has severed ties long ago.
So you guys should just get involved with the weeds and stop biting me. I won’t fall for it.”
Seeing her eyes blazing with anger, and seeing He Dazhu coming towards her with his hands raised, she smiled.
I was thinking in my mind how I could make this family suffer in silence when I fought back.
"Shut up and get to work. Don't you want work points?" Unfortunately, He Dazhui did not do as she expected, but slapped Xu Dahua in the face.
He looked at the slap in the face with regret, and when he turned around and walked away, the team leader came over.
Seeing this, his eyes moved. Yes, another village has arrived.
"Uncle San, come quickly. Xu Dahua and the others shoveled away several corn seedlings that we had managed to save."
With just one sentence, He Sanzhu, who was about to deal with the Xu family, turned around and headed straight over here.
"Xu Dahua, you cut off a few roots. Your eyes are not good anymore, so don't use them to avoid damaging the crops.
I see you haven't listened to what the captain said this morning, so if you don't want it, forget it."
The team leader, who had already lost a lot of work recently, was even more furious when he saw her refusing to repent.
"Uncle San, not only Xu Dahua, but also Wang Erni and the others have dug it up. It's right under their feet now. They are preparing to cover it with weeds."
He Wanqing was afraid that the team leader would leave a few people behind, so she immediately added them after she finished speaking.
Looking at the wife of He Erzhu and others, who was looking at her angrily, she opened and closed her red lips and once again said what they were afraid of.
