Chapter 169: Increased Grain Production



But after a moment of hesitation, he returned to reality.

"Thank you, Xu Zhiqing."

He and Lin Ruyan returned to the educated youth center. The meal was already prepared, but there was no meal for him.

Lu Xinyue said: "Comrade Guan, you said this morning that you would not eat here, and I thought you would not eat here at noon either, so I did not make your meal.

Besides, you also know that there is not much food in the educated youth camp, so please understand."

"It's okay, I've already eaten."

He felt his stomach and found that he was only three-quarters full.

Lin Ruyan served the meal. She had worked hard today and her stomach was rumbling with hunger, so she picked up the bowl and started eating.

The other educated youth were also eating, only Guan Xingyao was sitting there doing nothing.

He was a grown man who received regular training, so he had a big appetite. After eating a little at Xu Nuannuan's place, he was pulled over by Lin Ruyan.

Now, watching others eat, he actually swallowed his saliva subconsciously.

His stomach growled a few times, but luckily it was drowned out by the snoring of others eating, so he didn't show his embarrassment in front of these people.

Suddenly I felt a little desolate.

They were about to start work right after finishing their meal, and Lin Ruyan pulled him aside again, "Third brother, I've been working all morning and I'm really tired. Can you help me this afternoon?"

"OK."

As soon as they arrived at the field, Lin Ruyan sat down beside them to rest.

"Third brother, I still have a lot of work left. The team leader said that if I can't finish it, I will have to work overtime at night. You must help me finish it."

"Okay, no problem."

Guan Xingyao worked quickly. After about two hours, there were not many beans left for Lin Ruyan.

But he was so hungry that he felt dizzy. When he turned around, he found that Lin Ruyan was not there. He didn't know where she had gone.

At this time, Lin Ruyan came to where Xu Nuannuan and the Jiang family were working.

No one in the Jiang family paid any attention to her, and Xu Nuannuan ignored her, so she went to find Zhang Jianjun.

"Brother Zhang."

Zhang Jianjun felt that he was not familiar with her and had a bad impression of her, so he did not show much enthusiasm.

"Why are you here? Where is your third brother?"

"My third brother is helping me harvest beans over there. He said that I, a girl, am too delicate and weak to do rough work, so he did all my work for me. I asked him to take a break so that I could do it, but he refused because he was afraid of tiring me out." She deliberately raised her voice so that Xu Nuannuan could hear it.

Zhang Jianjun smiled faintly, "He was originally here to help you with your work, don't feel sorry for him."

Lin Ruyan seemed not to understand the meaning of his words and continued to be complacent.

"My third brother has loved me since I was a child. I can say that all three of my brothers love me very much. They always respond to my requests and never let me suffer any grievances. I feel so lucky to have them."

So what if they were related to Xu Nuannuan by blood? Not only did Xu Nuannuan not receive any care from them, but they also had to envy her.

Zhang Jianjun said: "It's good to have my brother's care, but the most important thing is to learn to be independent and self-reliant."

Lin Ruyan didn't like hearing Zhang Jianjun say these words, but she had nothing to say to others, so she went back after showing off.

Guan Xingyao had finished harvesting all the beans. She wiped the sweat from her forehead. She was very hungry and a little dizzy, so she prepared to go find something to eat.

Lin Ruyan walked over, took a quick look, and then went to find the team leader to record work points.

Guan Xingyao unknowingly walked to the side of the peanut field and saw Xu Nuannuan carrying a basket and distributing food to those people. She gave Zhang Jianjun two pieces of green things, which seemed to be mung bean cakes. Zhang Jianjun took them with a smile, put them in his mouth and took a bite, with a very satisfied expression, which made him very greedy.

He wanted to eat mung bean cakes and the rabbit meat he had not finished eating at noon, and his feet wanted to walk over there uncontrollably.

But I was afraid that going there would cause trouble for others, so I changed direction.

Seeing someone harvesting corn nearby, he broke off a corn stalk, peeled it, and sucked the juice inside.

My juice doesn't taste good, but he doesn't care as long as it can relieve his hunger.

Lin Ruyan saw it and said, "Third brother, why are you eating this? It's disgusting, and it's easy to cut your mouth when you peel it with your mouth."

Lin Ruyan had never eaten it herself, she discovered it when she saw others eating it.

Guan Xingyao frowned and looked at her. Didn’t she know that he was very hungry?

If she really cared about him, she should have thought that he didn't have enough to eat at noon.

You won't call him away when he is eating, nor will you make him work when he is hungry.

He didn't care about these things before, but he just saw that Zhang Jianjun was so happy. His non-blood-related sister could be so good to him, while he had his cousin by his side, and the treatment he received was worlds apart from hers.

"It's okay, I think it's delicious."

Lin Ruyan curled her lips and said, "Third brother, we've finished our work, let's go back to the educated youth camp."

"You go back, I'll stay here for a while."

Lin Ruyan didn't want to stay in the field for a moment. There were mosquitoes everywhere. It would be better for her to go back to the educated youth site to rest.

"Third brother, you'd better go back with me." What if he goes to find Xu Nuannuan again.

This time Guan Xingyao didn't agree with her, "Ruyan, I really don't want to go back."

"Third brother."

Guan Xingyao felt a little uncomfortable, "Ruyan, I'm a grown-up now, it's okay, you can go."

Lin Ruyan seemed to sense Guan Xingyao's disgust and could no longer ask Guan Xingyao for anything. She smiled at him and said, "Okay, Third Brother, remember to go back early."

"I see."

Lin Ruyan thought of Bai Yang. If she went back early, she could write a manuscript.

Guan Xingyao continued to gnaw on the dry corn stalks, his expression indescribable.

Xu Nuannuan happened to see him when she was walking her dog.

"Comrade Guan."

"Comrade Xu."
