Tang Baozhu pulled weeds slowly, following along with others, like a novice. She didn't pull too fast, just enough to make sure the weeds were neither too good nor too bad.
Tang Baozhu originally thought that Zhao Lidong and the other four were just coming to take a look, but she didn't expect them to also go down to the fields to work. They were so skilled that anyone who didn't know better would think they were really farmers.
It's a shame about their clothes; they don't look like clothes for working in the fields.
Looking at the endless rows of furrows in the field, Tang Baozhu felt overwhelmed. She kept pulling, but it seemed like there was no end in sight.
When he was bored, he would look around here and there, his hands never stopping, and he actually managed to see the people inside the cowshed.
The very elderly people weren't here, but Su Rui'an was.
He didn't seem like a refined, cultured person at all; he was more like a seasoned farmer who had been farming for years. He was incredibly fast and used the hoe very well.
I wonder how his kudzu root is coming along? I'm quite curious. Although I can make it in my own space, I'll wait until he finishes it so I can have a chance to contact him.
After pulling weeds all morning, Tang Baozhu felt like her fingers were going to be useless. If she hadn't been strong enough, they would probably be covered in blisters.
However, she wasn't the most upset. Tang Baozhu thought the most upset people were the villagers. Some of them were used to being lazy, but now that someone was watching them, they couldn't be lazy even if they wanted to. The expressions on their faces were really funny, they looked so miserable.
It seems that there used to be many lazy people in the village when they were working. Now that no one is backing them up, they can't be lazy anymore, so they're starting to suffer.
When it was time to finish work, Comrade Zhao Lidong started playing the loudspeaker, and then everyone in the fields rushed out.
The other people at the educated youth settlement also walked very quickly. They hadn't eaten anything that morning, but they looked very happy.
In their words, they were so happy that after working so hard, they finally received the work points they deserved on an equal footing. They no longer had to worry about receiving too little food or having their share deducted under some pretext. It was just too difficult.
At the same time, they sincerely hoped that those cadres who were struck by lightning would not come back, and that the current cadres were doing well, at least fairly and justly.
Tang Baozhu was thinking about other things. She had taken the grain from the warehouse next to the brigade headquarters. If it was found out, she wondered if Zhao Lidong and the other four would be made the scapegoats.
This was not the outcome she wanted, so she decided to wait until nightfall and have the puppet take the grain back. If Zhao Lidong and the others were to stay here from now on, she would not care about the grain.
However, if the villagers are still in charge and the puppets take away the grain, even if it's to retaliate against the village, there's no need to involve innocent people.
After making up his mind, he quickened his pace and slowly walked towards the educated youth settlement, while the others had already left.
There's only one pot, so I have to let them finish cooking before it's my turn. But I always feel like it's a bit of a waste of time, especially now that I have to work every day. If it keeps going like this, it seems like a waste of time.
Tang Baozhu suddenly thought, why not build a small stove herself? Then she could secretly take out an iron pot and start cooking right away, or should she just buy a house now?
During this time, she looked around and found that although the houses in the village were mostly in good condition, they were too close together. It would be nice if there were houses at the foot of the mountain, so that if someone wanted to eat something, no matter how strong the smell was, they wouldn't have to worry about being discovered by others.
I originally planned to cook rice for lunch, but cooking rice in one pot would take too long, so I simply steamed buns instead and cooked everything I would eat for dinner at the same time.
He ate two steamed buns directly, then secretly pretended to take a bottle out of the sack. It was a pickled vegetable made by the puppets in the space, consisting of beef and sauerkraut. It was quite delicious with rice.
But there's no rice now, so mixing two steamed buns is fine too. I'm eating my food while thinking about Brother Su. I wonder how he's doing.
The other people in the educated youth compound didn't envy Tang Baozhu eating the steamed buns. If they were willing, they could eat them too, but they just couldn't bear to.
In addition, they felt that Tang Baozhu was a particularly strange person and were worried that if they accidentally angered her, they would be the ones to suffer.
So apart from exchanging a few words occasionally, I don't get too close to her; we're just familiar strangers.
After resting for a while in the afternoon, I went back to work after hearing the horn.
Fortunately, it's not harvest time yet. When it's harvest time, I imagine I'll be exhausted. There are just too many fields, and even if I'm strong, I'll still feel overwhelmed.
When it was time to leave work in the evening, and everyone else was leaving in a rush, Tang Baozhu quietly moved closer to Brother Su.
Since everyone is in different places, it seems difficult to get close to him quietly if we don't hurry.
After all, they were originally people from the cowshed, and they were wary of everyone outside, worried that they might be framed again, so it was inherently difficult to get close to them.
All I can do is make up excuses to go over and chat with him whenever I have free time.
Su Rui'an was quite happy to see the little girl walk towards him, even though he kept a blank expression on his face. Worried that others would see him, he could only quietly walk towards a sparsely populated area.
Seeing his expression, Tang Baozhu secretly smiled to herself, then quietly followed behind him. She took out two talismans from her spatial storage, slapped one on herself, and then slapped one on Brother Su.
That way, even if others see the two of them, they might subconsciously ignore them, and it wouldn't be considered causing trouble for Brother Su.
Tang Baozhu followed Brother Su to the edge of a small river, where they stopped.
Su Rui'an turned to look at the little girl following behind him. Her heart was pounding, but she remained calm and composed on the surface, showing no sign of it.
"Miss Baozhu, what are you doing following me? Is there something you need from me?"
If Tang Baozhu hadn't had such sharp eyes, she really wouldn't have been able to tell that beneath that seemingly serious exterior, her ears were actually quite red.
