"Team One."
"Okay, I understand."
Xu Nuannuan waited for Jiang Ting to leave, then went to find Shen Mengan: "Captain, please take a look at my leave request."
"You're pretending. I can see through it right away. Stop giving me so much trouble and just get back to work."
"I'm not pretending. How could you approve Yu Zhiqing's leave so easily just now? Why didn't you say she was pretending?"
"Yu, Yu Zhiqing, she's not pretending."
"Why?"
"Because, because."
He looked at Xu Nuannuan's clothes again. He just told Xu Nuannuan the so-called rules. Xu Nuannuan didn't have anything good to give her, but her good looks were also a kind of capital.
"Because Yu Zhiqing is smarter than you, she wouldn't tell a lie." He lowered his voice and said, "Think carefully about what I said and get to work. I'll go to the fields to check on you myself later. Now, stop dawdling and get to work."
After he finished speaking, he didn't give Xu Nuannuan any chance to bargain, and walked over to several team leaders to give them instructions.
Xu Nuannuan turned off the recorder in the space and stood back in the team with a "grievance".
Yu Qingqing was even happier now.
Xu Nuannuan, I finally beat you.
She planned to go back to the educated youth site first, and then go to the field to see Xu Nuannuan's miserable appearance.
The first team leader was Shen Mengjun, a cousin of Shen Mengan. He called out to Xu Nuannuan, "Come with me."
"What work are you doing today?"
Shen Mengjun glanced at her and said, "Pulling out weeds." You won't be tired to death.
Xu Nuannuan knew that this guy would not assign her any good job, so she went over there and wait and see what happened.
The other four educated youth followed the other four team leaders.
Fu Yunqi looked towards Xu Nuannuan for a while, and Chen Dalu pulled him: "Old Fu, there are too many unfair things in the world. You should take care of yourself first."
He had a quarrel with the team leader today, and he is bound to be in trouble.
Xu Nuannuan followed Shen Mengjun to a sweet potato field. Like the crops in other fields, the sweet potato vines in this field were small and the leaves showed signs of yellowing, as if they were under the influence of bad people.
The sweet potato seedlings are not growing well, and the weeds next to them are not growing well either. They are all plants in this field, but the soil is not fertile enough, so the grass is not growing well.
Shen Mengjun pointed to a large sweet potato field in front of him and said, "You are responsible for pulling out all the weeds in this field."
Xu Nuannuan estimated that the land was about three or four acres. She couldn't finish weeding it in two days, let alone one day.
She quickly turned on the recorder in the space and said to Shen Mengjun: "This piece of land is too big, I can't finish it."
"You have to pull them out even if you can't finish them. This is the task assigned to you, and you must complete it."
“What if I can’t finish it today?”
"Don't leave work until you finish pulling out the seeds. Keep pulling out the seeds. You can leave work when you finish."
"What if I can't finish pulling it out?"
"If you can't pull them all out, you'll die in this sweet potato field."
Xu Nuannuan glared at her and said, "I think you are targeting me. Otherwise, you wouldn't embarrass me like this."
Shen Mengjun sneered: "You are not stupid, but what can you do even if you know it? You are just an educated youth who came to the countryside. This is our territory. What can you do to us?"
"You bully people so blatantly, aren't you afraid that someone will report you to the commune?"
Shen Mengjun still had a calm expression. "Sue us? You have to have evidence. I still say that this is our territory. What can a weak woman like you do to us? Don't you want to go back to the city in the future? Don't you want to go to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University? Or do you not want the quotas we can offer you?"
I advise you to work honestly and not be unable to leave work until the evening. I'm telling you, these are weeds, these are sweet potato seedlings. If you pull them out, all your work points will be deducted. I have other things to do, so I'll be leaving now."
As Shen Mengjun turned around, Xu Nuannuan asked him, "I want to know, are the other educated youth treated the same as I am?"
"I don't know about that. Anyway, the captain asked me to look after you, so I did."
"Take care?" Xu Nuannuan emphasized the word, "You're talking as if I've offended the captain. How come I don't know when I offended him?"
Shen Mengjun shook his head and looked at Xu Nuannuan again.
"I don't know the specific reason, but think about it carefully. Work hard and don't be lazy. Do you know why I assigned you to the sweet potato field instead of the corn or cotton field? It's because I'm afraid you'll be lazy. I'll be here to supervise you at any time."
After Shen Mengjun left, Xu Nuannuan squatted in the field to work. However, she would not pull out all the weeds in the field as Shen Mengjun instructed. She would take her time. The faster he asked her to go, the slower she would go. Anyway, she was sick now.
Not long after, a figure flashed by the field. Shen Mengan came over with his hands behind his back, and his face looked much better than before.
He walked up to Xu Nuannuan, stared at her, and put a gentle smile on his face.
"Xu Zhiqing."
Xu Nuannuan felt like vomiting when she saw him like that. "Captain, are you here to supervise me weeding? I'm sick and can't do it any faster. If you don't let me go, I'll die of exhaustion in this field."
Knowing that he might say something shocking again, he turned on the recorder in the space.
Shen Mengan's tone softened a lot: "Xu Zhiqing, why are you doing this? If you are too stubborn and too persistent, you will only suffer. If you can listen to me, you may not have to suffer this pain."
Xu Nuannuan pretended not to understand: "I don't know what the captain wants me to do?"
Shen Mengan looked around warily and said to Xu Nuannuan, "I want something from you. If you're willing to give it to me, I can also give you what you want. This is called an exchange."
Xu Nuannuan still pretended to be ignorant: "My family is very poor. I don't even have a decent piece of clothing. What can I give you?"
Shen Mengan chuckled: "If you were a man, you really wouldn't have anything to give me, but you are a young and beautiful girl. Your youth, your youth... cough cough, I don't need to say more, you should understand."
"What do I understand? Captain, you." She subconsciously covered her chest and turned around, secretly cursing Shen Mengan for being an old pervert, wondering how many female educated youth he had ruined.
