The newly arrived male educated youth and the remaining dozens of people in the field office were called together for a brief meeting.
The first thing everyone had to do after that was to set up the tent.
Prepare accommodation for the hundreds of soldiers arriving tomorrow.
Part of the water in the thermos was used to boil the medicine, and the rest was soon used up. Wang Juan went to the kitchen again and brought back some news.
"I heard from the kitchen that we will have lunch at around 11 a.m., and then we will go to the fields to deliver water! The kitchen has almost filled up the big buckets, and there is another good news. Do you want to hear it?"
Xu Hongmei smiled and said, "Wang Juan, don't keep me in suspense. Just tell me now."
Wang Juan put the kettle in the corner and walked to her bunk, saying:
"I heard that we have several hundred people coming to support Hongyang Farm! With these people helping to harvest the wheat, do you think the time for harvesting the wheat will be shortened?"
As soon as Wang Juan finished speaking, someone asked, "Really?"
Wang Juan smiled and said, "Of course it's true. The male educated youths are all very busy, setting up tents! Hundreds of people coming here is not a small number. Will you go and help? I want to go!"
Xu Hongmei was the first to raise her hand: "I'll go too. I have nothing to do anyway!"
Then Sheng Kangning also raised his hand: "Then I'll go too!"
Xu Hongmei patted Sheng Kangning's arm gently: "Forget it! Your arm is so sore, just rest at home!"
Sheng Kangning: "I can help pass some things or something!"
Wang Juan smiled and said, "Let Kang Ning go!" Then she looked at Ma Chunmei and Zhang Xiuying and asked, "Will you guys go too?"
Ma Chunmei and Zhang Xiuying looked at each other and agreed to go together.
The remaining female educated youth, including Wu Xiaohui, subconsciously looked at Zhou Xiaoran. Zhou Xiaoran raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you looking at me? If you want to go, go! I'm not going anyway! I have to go to the fields to deliver water later!"
Zhou Xiaoran is not going.
The others didn't move.
After lunch, everyone took their supplies back and gathered at the kitchen half an hour later to deliver water to the comrades who were harvesting wheat in the fields.
Xu Hongmei was the last one to come in. She was holding a bag in her hand, with a smile on her face. She walked briskly to Sheng Kangning's side, bent down and whispered in Sheng Kangning's ear, "Someone is looking for you outside!"
Sheng Kangning's first reaction was that it might be Yang Hui who was looking for her! But then she thought again, that couldn't be the case, as Yang Hui was still harvesting wheat in the fields!
If it’s not Yang Hui, then who could it be?
She just arrived and doesn't know anyone else.
Seeing Sheng Kangning's delicate eyebrows tightly knitted together, Xu Hongmei bent down with a smile and whispered in Sheng Kangning's ear: "Xiaobao is here, don't you want to see him?"
When Sheng Kangning heard this, he was stunned at first. By the time he reacted, the person had already been blown away like the wind.
Zhou Xiaoran glanced at Sheng Kangning's back and his eyes fell on Xu Hongmei's face. He saw that Xu Hongmei looked very happy and found it funny. The person they were looking for was Sheng Kangning, so why was she laughing there?
"Who's looking for Sheng Kangning? It can't be that man from the Youth Protection Team, what's his name, Yang Hui?"
Xu Hongmei rolled her eyes at Zhou Xiaoran:
"You're spewing shit out of your mouth! Yang Hui is rushing to harvest wheat in the field! Does he have the ability to clone himself?"
"If it's not, then it's not! Why are you so anxious? It's not you! Can't you let people talk? Then tell me, who is the one who is looking for Kang Ning? A man or a woman?"
"Zhou Xiaoran, I don't want to argue with you about these things. Anyway, remember this: don't talk nonsense in the future! They are looking for Kang Ning, not you. What does it have to do with you? Why do you care whether they are men or women? It's really inexplicable. Are you too idle? If you are too idle, why don't you make more trips to the fields later!"
Xu Hongmei saw Zhou Shen also came, but Zhou Shen did not come to find Zhou Xiaoran.
This shows how bad the relationship between this brother and sister is!
Or it could be said that Zhou Shen dislikes his own sister!
People like Zhou Xiaoran deserve to be punished!
So Xu Hongmei didn't mention Zhou Shen's matter to her. Also, don't let her get the chance, otherwise, she will beat Zhou Xiaoran up!
Sheng Kangning ran out of the tent and saw the man standing opposite him at first sight. He had a tall and slender figure, holding a large black umbrella in his hand and lowering his head.
Look at the little kid playing in the water at his feet.
Sheng Kangning paused, unwilling to break this beautiful scene.
Seeing the little girl couldn't help but put her feet in the water, the man bent over and picked her up: "Your shoes are wet, but you don't have any to change into!"
The man's voice was low and had a slight vibration. It reached his ears like the warm sunshine in the afternoon, which ironed all the pores in his body. Sheng Kangning shuddered, not understanding why he had such a feeling.
A faint medicinal fragrance floats in the air, refreshing like a cage of mist and rain.
Chu Nanzhou's nose twitched, and he looked up, his eyes met Sheng Kangning's. He looked at the girl bathing in the rain and waved, "Come here!"
Sheng Kangning was a little dazed. She didn't expect to see Brother Chu and Xiaobao again so soon.
Seeing Sheng Kangning didn't move, the man stretched out his hand and pulled him under the umbrella. The smell of medicine became stronger, mixed with fresh and moist water vapor. Chu Nanzhou subconsciously took a deep breath and closed his eyes slightly. After a very short time, he recovered as before, with a calm and indifferent expression:
"I heard from Xu Hongmei that you also helped to set up the tent! Are you tired?"
"I'm not tired. I didn't do anything. I just helped pass some things!"
Sheng Kangning was not used to being too close to people, so he subconsciously moved away, but was pulled back by the man.
