Chapter 1837 Returning Things to Their Origin 5
Seeing that the old lady had no intention of saying more and the diners around her changed the subject with other words, it was obvious that they did not want to continue this sensitive topic, so Feng Qingxue did not ask any more questions. When she saw the old lady again, it was in the afternoon after she had found out the general situation of the cultural relics department. She walked into the nearby public toilet and suddenly discovered that such an elegant and outstanding old woman was actually working as a night soil collector.
"You work here?" Feng Qingxue's mind was not filled with surprise, but rather with as expected.
The old lady turned her head and saw her. She stopped her work of digging out feces and suddenly smiled. "What's so strange about me working here? Aren't people proud to trample on me?"
Feng Qingxue remained silent because she had nothing to say.
The number of people who have fallen into the same situation as the old lady is countless.
"Let me help you!" Feng Qingxue pulled the scarf around her mouth and nose, reached out to take the tool from the old lady's hand, which was a shovel, and quickly shoveled the remaining feces in the pit into the wooden barrel.
During her years in the army, she had to go to the countryside every now and then. She had done a lot of work, but not often.
It smells so bad in early winter, and it will be even dirtier and smellier in the hot summer, with flies flying everywhere.

The old lady leaned against the cement wall of the public toilet, watching Feng Qingxue busying herself, and said, "I am now a poor phoenix, worse than a chicken, not the daughter of a capitalist. If you help me with the work, I won't give you any benefits."
The food produced by the reincarnation of grains is really smelly, and it would splash onto clothes unexpectedly. Even though Feng Qingxue had digested the food in her stomach that morning, it almost poured into her throat and was then vomited out of her mouth. She could only hold it in.
The old lady was startled, and then she heard the other party continue: "Besides, I have a happy family, no worries about food and clothing, and the last thing I lack is benefits."
During this time, several female comrades came in to use the toilet. When they saw Feng Qingxue helping the old lady, they couldn't help but look at her a few more times. Seeing such a young and beautiful girl helping the old lady do such dirty work, even though they felt it was strange, they didn't say anything. They went out after using the toilet, and did not forget to pinch their noses and cover their mouths when passing by the wooden barrel.
Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "If you only want to get something in return when you help others, is that still called helping?"
Although her own rank is not high, even if she is promoted in the future, she will at most retire at the regimental level, but her husband is currently the deputy commander, with outstanding merits, and will live in the upper class of power in the future. Moreover, she and her husband have some of the Lu family's property, as well as the things they have collected over the years. It can be said that they have power, influence and money. Can the old lady's benefits compare to what they have? No.
The old lady stared at Feng Qingxue's face and eyes, and when she found that she was not lying, she felt relieved and showed a little apology on her face, "I was too suspicious. Thank you, comrade, thank you for helping me with the work."
"You're welcome." Feng Qingxue took out the wooden barrel and put it on the flatbed truck full of dung buckets. She helped her clean a few toilets and sent the dung buckets to the septic tank. When she said goodbye, she said, "The worst years have passed. Many people have been rehabilitated. Old lady, please wait patiently. You will definitely get your own dawn."
The old lady was stunned, with a hint of joy on her face, "I expected it, but I didn't know when."
Feng Qingxue said seriously: "The great man has just passed away, and it is time for renewal. You must be patient. Once the things above are sorted out, you will naturally take care of the situation below."
