Wen Yuennan hurried towards the educated youth settlement, while the village chief, with a headache, muttered to Fan Xiaofan behind her, "They've probably been brainwashed by Tie Niangzi's propaganda..."
The village chief supports the production efforts, but he is more concerned about human nature.
Although gender equality is advocated nowadays, and women can do what men can do, there are likely inherent differences between men and women. For example, women are generally not as physically strong as men, while men do not have the monthly period of weakness that women experience, and men do not have the ability to conceive.
He prefers a reasonable division of labor rather than blindly rushing forward.
Bi Ru Xiao Fan could have made greater contributions in other fields, so why was she forced to farm?
Fan Xiaofan was also puzzled.
She had initially tried to slip away when she sensed something was wrong, but Wen Yuennan grabbed her arm, saying, "Since Comrade Xiao Fan is alright, let's go help him..."
Waaah, it's all her fault for being too slow.
However, the village chief gave her a reassuring look, and Fan Xiaofan didn't feel that going to work in the fields was helping, not causing trouble.
Wen Yuennan quickly threw her meager belongings into the room where the female educated youth lived, and then promptly went out to ask for work.
The village chief slowly glanced at Wen Yuennan, hoping she would remain so defiant in a moment.
Look at those hands, so soft and flabby, they're not cut out for manual labor.
All he wanted to say was, "Girl, passion alone isn't enough; life will teach you a lesson."
Li Dafu led Wen Yuenan and Fan Xiaofan to the fields. Wen Yuenan immediately asked to be given the most arduous work, and Li Dafu did not stand on ceremony.
As for Fan Xiaofan, he glanced at her and sent her to the place where Fan Yunyan and Shi Lingheng were in charge.
Fan Yunyan was somewhat taken aback and asked in a low voice, "Sister, what brings you here?"
Fan Xiaofan shrugged and glanced at Wen Yuennan: "They were captured..."
Shi Lingheng raised an eyebrow, glanced at Fan Xiaofan's delicate hands, and took a step away from her to do all the work she was supposed to do.
Fan Xiaofan only needed to follow behind and play in the mud.
She expressed deep shame.
Shi Lingheng casually inquired about Wen Yuenan and learned that she came from Beidu, which gave him some guesses.
Zhang Desheng just said he was sending someone...
He hadn't expected that a woman would be sent. Yu Qing hadn't kept an eye on him before, so why would a woman be enough?
She deftly helped Fan Xiaofan finish the tasks assigned to her, when she heard an impassioned question: "How can you let someone else do your work?"
Shi Lingheng slowly raised his head, while Fan Yunyan, hands on his hips, said, "Who said that? She clearly did it herself."
Fan Xiaofan: "..."
Shi Lingheng remained calm.
Fan Yunyan was furious. His sister was doing just fine as a worker, so why did she have to come to the fields to do this kind of work?
He hadn't even reprimanded her before being dragged here by this woman.
Wen Yuennan initially thought these farm chores were nothing, but when she bent over and picked out the sparse grains from the dry seedlings, her hands and feet soon felt like they weren't her own.
At first glance, his hands were covered with red marks, and he was so tired that he could barely bend over. It didn't even look like a difficult job.
She was supporting her back when she saw Fan Xiaofan slacking off, and she couldn't hold back any longer, so she immediately shouted out loud.
But who knew that Fan Yunyan would lie through his teeth and insist that Fan Xiaofan did it herself? She angrily pointed at Shi Lingheng and asked, "What do you think?"
