Chapter 17 Earning Work Points
"Look, this is the land you are responsible for, don't think of being lazy! Don't think of yourself as a rich young lady when you get here. If you don't work, you won't have food to eat." A villager with a bad face pointed to a paddy field that was clearly separated from other fields, with bundles of rice seedlings next to it.
On their right were some people standing apart. The people over there just glanced at them and lowered their heads to work. The clothes they wore were better than those of the villagers. Jiang He guessed that they should be the educated youth who had come over from before, but perhaps because of what had happened recently, those educated youth and the villagers were on the border of Chu and Han, and they seemed a little awkward standing in the middle.
"You should at least teach us what to do, right?" Gao Youhui looked at the other person's face, and even if he was not angry at all, he was ignited by the other person.
"You..." The villager was about to say something when Jiang He, who was standing on the edge of the field and looking at them, rushed over. Grandpa Liu said, "The village chief said that we were sent down to contribute to the country. There is no need to treat us so badly, right? If you don't know, you might think that the landlords in the past oppressed the common people."
Although Jiang He said this with a smile, the face of the villager who was ready to see them embarrassed suddenly changed when this hat was put down. He quickly said to Uncle Liu, "Village Chief, I didn't mean it. I just wanted to give them a..."
"Yun, you go!" Uncle Liu's face looked ugly. He glared at the villagers who were looking for trouble with Jiang He and others, and then said to the man in a white vest on the other side.
"Okay!" The man called Yun Wazi came out without saying anything. In front of Gao Youhui, he untied the bundle of seedlings, took out a small handful in his hand, picked up two or three, and planted them in the paddy field.
Jiang He glanced at Liu Xi who was hiding in the corner of the field opposite and said, "Little Liu, don't go down. Just watch here." No matter what, he would not let a seven or eight-year-old kid go to the fields with him. Anyway, it didn't matter to him whether the work points were a lot or not.
"Oh!" Xiao Liuzi also wanted to roll up his sleeves and go to the fields, but after being glared at by Jiang He, he could only retract his legs.
Seeing the other party's actions, Jiang He nodded with satisfaction, and followed Yun Wazi to plant the seedlings. It's not that he doesn't know how to do this kind of work, but if anyone tries to step on you, and you don't fight back, the other party might really treat you as a soft persimmon. The reason he found that Uncle Liu just now was just to give the other party a warning.
He had a good plan in mind. If he really couldn't stay in this place, the worst that could happen was that he would find an opportunity to go to Hong Kong. Although Hong Kong was not very stable during this period and was still controlled by the foreigners from the Gentleman's Country, with his previous experience and funds, he could still make a name for himself.
"Hey, you're amazing." Gao Youhui came to Jiang He's side at this time, not forgetting to plant seedlings in his hands. "I think this is not a simple case. There must be someone behind it."
"Who else could it be? That Liu Xi!" Jiang He knew what Gao Youhui was trying to do when he heard what he said. "Don't look up. That old guy has been staring at us. Do you think he doesn't know what you want to do?"
Now Jiang He is really getting more and more interested in the so-called affair a few years ago. Since the other party wants to mess with him, he doesn't mind finding out the truth.
"I..." Gao Youhui opened his mouth, wanting to refute something but didn't know what to say. "Damn it, his daughter is crazy, it's not us who caused it, why is she biting us like a dead dog?"
"Don't you think this is a little strange?" Jiang He smiled, walked to the edge of the field, dragged another bundle of seedlings, untied them, and continued planting.
"Eh? What did he say?" Gao Youhui glanced at Jiang He behind him and nudged Lu Mingfeng next to him with his shoulder.
But he didn't expect Lu Mingfeng to just glance at him and quickly move away, leaving Gao Youhui confused. "No, can you smart people take into account someone like me who is not smart enough?"
Here, Grandpa Liu dragged the villager who had just shown Gao Youhui a warning to one side and said, "Haozi, why don't you bother those educated youth? They didn't provoke you, but if they get angry, I wonder what you will do? If you do this, won't everyone be unhappy?" As he said this, he glanced at the back of the man who had been bending over to plant rice, with a touch of admiration in his eyes, "You don't really think they are ordinary kids in our village, do you? They are good at writing, so write a letter to them and I'll see what you will do?"
