Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grin.
This scene was witnessed by Ma Chunmei, who was not far away. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her palms.
"You vixen, seducing my brother wasn't enough, you also have to seduce the educated youth sent to the countryside!" She couldn't help but curse.
With Du Jianshan's incredible energy, he could finish most of the day's work in no time!
Who wouldn't be envious after seeing this?
If she had that hard court, she could have dawdled until the end of the day! That vixen got the better deal!
But she couldn't very well ask Du Jianshan for help, could she?
This grandson of hers had a fight with her just yesterday.
No, we can't just watch others enjoy their good fortune!
Her eyes darted around and landed on Wang Tieniu, who had just stopped to rest and was gulping down cold water from a kettle.
This kid looks simple-minded, but he's surprisingly strong, and the key thing is...
Is he easier to talk to than that ruthless devil Du Jianshan?
She took a deep breath, trying to appear pitiful, and awkwardly approached Wang Tieniu, her voice high-pitched and strained: "Comrade Wang Tieniu..."
Wang Tieniu was enjoying his drink when she startled him, nearly choking on his water and coughing until his face turned red.
He looked up and saw Ma Chunmei, who looked completely bewildered: "What are you doing? Did you get sand in your eye? Why are you blinking?"
Ma Chunmei almost couldn't keep up her fake smile. Suppressing her nausea, she continued in a strained voice, "Look at this patch of ground, it's so hard! I really can't dig anymore, my hands are blistered and it hurts so much!"
She held out her hand, revealing several bright red blisters: "You're strong, could you... help me?"
The last syllable was drawn out, like it had a hook.
Looking at the blisters and then at Ma Chunmei's affected expression, Wang Tieniu felt a chill run down his spine!
Good heavens!
What is this woman trying to do?!
He yelled as if stung by a scorpion, leaping back a good three feet away from Ma Chunmei, and pointed at her, shouting:
"Oh my god! Ma Chunmei! Get away from me! Stop being so lewd!"
"Help me out? Help my ass! Do you think we're that close?"
"So what if your brother's a scorekeeper? Or do you think you're superior just because you're a representative of educated youth? Want to find someone to do the work? Go do it yourself!"
"I think you're a vixen! Get lost and get away from me! Don't touch me! I find you unlucky!"
Wang Tieniu's loud voice, like a broken gong, instantly resounded throughout the entire field.
Everyone working heard it, and they all suppressed their laughter, glancing at Ma Chunmei with strange looks.
Ma Chunmei's face turned bright red, like a monkey's bottom. She was both angry and ashamed, wishing she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
She pointed at Wang Tieniu, her fingers trembling, her lips quivering, unable to utter a single word for a long time: "You...you...!"
"What do you mean, 'get lost'? I hate seeing you!" Wang Tieniu waved his hand dismissively, as if shooing away a fly.
Ma Chunmei was so angry that she trembled all over, tears welling up in her eyes. Finally, she stomped her foot hard, turned around and left.
She was too ashamed to stay any longer.
She scanned the crowd, and finally her gaze fell on Sun Qiang, who was huddled in a corner, working hard with his head down.
Sun Qiang usually follows Ma Jinbao around; he's an honest, simple guy who's not good at saying no.
Ma Chunmei abandoned her act of feigning pitifulness, walked over with a stern face, and said in a commanding tone, "Sun Qiang! My plot of land is too difficult to manage, come and help me dig it up!"
Sun Qiang looked up, a troubled expression on his face: "Sister Ma... I haven't finished my own work yet..."
"Stop talking nonsense! Just help me! Do you still want my brother to give you work points?" Ma Chunmei glared at her and threatened in a low voice.
Sun Qiang shrank back, looked at the land he still had most of left, and then at Ma Chunmei's gloomy face. In the end, he could only move slowly over with a long face, pick up the shovel and start digging the not-so-hard ground for Ma Chunmei.
Watching this scene, Wang Tieniu curled his lip and said, "Tsk, bullying honest people again."
He quickly ran to Du Jianshan's side, grabbed his arm, and said with lingering fear, "Brother Shan! Let's go! Let's get out of here! We can't stay here any longer!"
"That woman just winked at me, and it gave me goosebumps! I was like I'd seen a ghost! If I stay any longer, I'm afraid she'll pounce on me! Let's go, let's go!"
Looking at Wang Tieniu's exaggerated expression and then at Ma Chunmei's exasperated look in the distance, Du Jianshan couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, let's go!"
The two men carried their tools and headed straight for the company headquarters.
Company Commander Chen Jianshan had just returned from his patrol and was sitting in the house fanning himself with his straw hat.
