Chapter 16 First Day at Work



Wang Shuning walked on a small path covered with weeds. He was very tired from working in the fields. He only had two days off a month, which made him feel uncomfortable.

In the afternoon, Wang Shuning dug a shovel and the soil was turned up, revealing the white sweet potato flesh.

Wang Shuning put the dug sweet potatoes into another bamboo basket with a frown on his face. He had to be more careful.

The most tiring part of digging sweet potatoes is the waist, which has to be bent all the time, feeling sore and tired.

When it was almost time to get off work, the scorer came over to keep score.

Aunt Da Jiao came over and looked like she was enjoying a good show.

He Mingliang, the scorekeeper of Dafeng Village, stared at the bamboo basket that was less than two-thirds full of sweet potatoes, and the other bamboo basket that was full of broken ones. He then looked at the field where only half a row of sweet potatoes had been dug, and sighed and said, "Ning Zhiqing, not only are you inefficient, but you also dug so many sweet potatoes and broke them. You'll be awarded three work points today."

"Puchi." Aunt Dajiao didn't want to endure it at all. Three work points, the children in the village earned more than this by picking grass for pigs.

You know, a normal person in the village can get ten work points a day as long as he doesn't slack off.

Wang Shuning said nothing, but nodded and said, "Okay."

Zhang Meili got five work points today and was originally in a bad mood, but when she heard that Wang Shuning got less than her, she immediately felt much more relaxed.

She ran over to catch up with Wang Shuning, "I heard that you have to earn six or seven work points a day, which is enough for one person to eat when the food is distributed."

Wang Shuning asked in confusion, "Why don't you wait for Guo Jingyi?" They two live together, so it would be more reasonable for them to travel together.

Hearing this, Zhang Meili began to complain, "It's all because of Lu Beichu. Yesterday at noon and night, as soon as he got off work, he wanted to go with Jingyi. He wanted to date Jingyi."

Wang Shuning raised an eyebrow, "Does Guo Jingyi have a crush on Lv Beichu?"

Zhang Meili frowned and thought for a moment, "I think there should be some, she didn't reject Lu Beichu's kindness."

Wang Shuning curled her lips and smiled, and the male and female protagonists naturally fell in love with each other. Lu Beichu fell in love at first sight, and even if Guo Jingyi didn't, it wouldn't last long.
