Li Jinfeng got up and had breakfast before Li Aiju and Li Ailan got up.
The two sisters were beaten to a pulp yesterday and took their revenge on Li Jinfeng. They rolled their eyes at her and said nasty things to her all morning.
Li Jinfeng ignored the two clowns and went straight to Grandma Zhang's house.
When she went there, Zhang Xiaobao had not yet gone out to work, but he was already preparing to go out.
The skinny child was barefoot and wore tattered clothes.
Seeing Li Jinfeng, Zhang Xiaobao rushed forward excitedly and called out sweetly, "Sister Jinfeng, why are you here?"
"I came to see your grandma. How is she?" Li Jinfeng asked.
"I'm much better now, and I even said I want to see you! Sister Jinfeng, come on, I'll take you to see my grandma." Zhang Xiaobao pulled Li Jinfeng's sleeve and walked into the house happily.
When Li Jinfeng entered the house, Grandma Zhang was mending clothes. She had patched up a torn and frayed sweatshirt with various scraps of cloth, and the shirt could be worn for several more years.
Seeing Li Jinfeng, she immediately put down what she was holding and came forward, "Jinfeng girl, you're here."
Grandma Zhang's eyes were a little red.
The old woman almost died.
That bowl of millet porridge, that egg, and that half steamed bun saved the old woman.
It doesn’t matter if she died, but it’s a pity that her grandson Xiaobao is still so young. It will be a shame for him to be alone in the future.
"Grandma, are you feeling better?" Li Jinfeng asked.
"Much better, little Jinfeng, thank you!" Grandma Zhang said gently.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, he looked at his grandson Zhang Xiaobao and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to go to work early? Why haven't you gone yet?"
Zhang Xiaobao immediately came to his senses and prepared to run.
"Sister Jinfeng, aren't you going?" Zhang Xiaobao asked.
"My grandfather asked me for a few days off, so I won't be going these days."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaobao lowered his head in disappointment. If Li Jinfeng didn't go, he wouldn't be able to get any farm tools.
Without farm tools, he couldn't work as well as others, and would get fewer work points.
"Xiaobao, do you want to change your job? A few days ago, when we were distributing farm tools, the team leader saw that I had injured my forehead and assigned me this job. Now that my forehead is healed, I won't do this job anymore."
Li Jinfeng was not sure if she could convince everyone in the production team to treat Zhang Xiaobao equally.
After all, the Zhang family's background was clear. Not to mention her, even if team leader Zhao Zhongxing went there himself, he wouldn't dare guarantee that the people in the production team would treat the Zhang family equally.
Now, all she can do is minimize the losses.
"Harvesting rice earns the highest work points," Zhang Xiaobao whispered.
He was only ten years old, and the work points children earned from their work were generally not high. At the end of the day, one or two work points were not enough to feed them.
What's more, his family has no food to feed themselves now.
Li Jinfeng knew very well that harvesting rice earned high work points. Because of this, some people would go to the fields to pull the rice by hand without any farm tools.
"Xiaobao, when we do a job, we don't have to choose the one with the highest work points. We can choose the one that suits us best. You can go to the team leader and apply to herd cattle, and then take charge of collecting pig grass in the village. When you herd cattle, you can collect pig grass and feed the cattle. The pig grass can be carried back on the cattle's backs. Not only does it save energy, but the work points of these two jobs combined are not necessarily lower than collecting grain." Li Jinfeng patiently analyzed for Zhang Xiaobao.
