Just then, Aunt Li, the village chief's wife, came over. When she saw Widow Liu causing trouble, she was furious.
Aunt Li pointed at Widow Liu and scolded, "You widow Liu, you're throwing a tantrum again! Why should Lin, the educated youth, give you his gloves? You're perfectly capable, can't you earn them yourself? All you ever think about is taking advantage of others, don't you even know where you are!"
Widow Liu was so scolded by Aunt Li that she didn't dare to say a word and slunk away.
Aunt Li then said to Lin Qian, "Lin Zhiqing, don't pay attention to her. This kind of person just likes to take advantage of others. If she dares to cause you trouble again, just come to your aunt."
Lin Qian said gratefully, "Thank you, Aunt Li."
Seeing this, Aunt Li and some other clever villagers understood that Lin Qian was on the village chief's wife's radar and couldn't be touched. The discord between Su Yao and Lin Qian also provided the villagers with a spectacle.
After this incident, Lin Qian continued to work diligently on the farm, while Su Yao stood awkwardly to the side. The other educated youth also realized the conflict between them and each had their own thoughts.
Li Hua was secretly delighted after receiving the assignment. He had been in this place for five years, and his desire to return to the city had grown stronger. He felt this was a rare opportunity. Zhao Yu came from the capital, and he guessed that Zhao Yu's family must be well-off. If he could curry favor with Zhao Yu, perhaps he could benefit from his return to the city. With this thought in mind, Li Hua happily went to find Zhao Yu.
Seeing Zhao Yu's predicament, Li Hua became even more certain of his idea. He walked enthusiastically to Zhao Yu's side and said, "Zhao Yu, don't worry, there are techniques to farm work. Come on, let me teach you!" With that, Li Hua picked up another hoe and began to demonstrate for Zhao Yu.
"Look, you can't dig straight down with this hoe. You have to tilt it a little. That way you can save effort and dig out more soil," Li Hua explained in detail while demonstrating.
Zhao Yu listened attentively, his eyes fixed on Li Hua's movements, trying to remember every detail. Then, following Li Hua's instructions, he tried swinging the hoe. Although he was still a little clumsy at first, he was noticeably better than before.
As the male lead, it's normal that he didn't know how to do these things before, but Zhao Yu's learning ability was still very strong. Under Li Hua's patient guidance, Zhao Yu quickly mastered some basic farm work skills and became more and more proficient. His movements gradually became smoother, and he dug out more and more soil.
Seeing this, Li Hua quickly encouraged him, "That's right, take it slow, you'll get better with practice."
Encouraged, Zhao Yu practiced even harder. As time went on, his work speed improved significantly, and he was able to keep up with the pace of the other educated youth.
While teaching Zhao Yu, Li Hua also made sure to mention things about the capital from time to time, trying to get closer to Zhao Yu. He knew that this was an opportunity he had to seize if he wanted to return to the city.
