The next day, at 3:40 a.m., Lin Anshu, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, opened her eyes.
After washing up, she pushed the family cart, carrying a basket and a headlamp, ready to go to the fields with her parents.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and it was Xu Yi's parents who came in.
"An'an, are we not late?"
"No, no, Uncle, Aunt, it's cold in the morning, please wear more clothes," Lin Anshu said.
"Yes, don't worry, we're all wearing long sleeves and pants."
Although it's already late May, you can still clearly feel the chill outside when you go out at this hour.
"I'm here, I'm here! Oh, I'm so tired. I'm not late, am I?" Ji Chuan said as he rushed over.
"Xiao Ji, you've come at the right time, let's go."
"Walk!"
A group of six people, carrying lanterns and baskets, walked into the vegetable garden under the cover of night.
Eight hundred catties of vegetables, that sounds like a lot.
Actually, when you add it all up, it's not that much.
Just take Chinese cabbage, a typical one weighs three to five pounds, while larger ones can weigh seven or eight pounds.
The cabbages in Lin Anshu's family are mostly over six pounds each.
If you dig up a hundred of them, they'd weigh at least 600 jin each.
The problem is, the customers said they want all the mature vegetables that Lin Anshu has at home.
So, they had to pick some of every ripe vegetable, including bok choy, Chinese cabbage, cowpeas, water spinach, scallions, baby bok choy, and cherry radishes.
Once they started working, they were busy from dusk till dawn.
During this time, Lin's father and Xu Yi's father took turns pushing the baskets full of fruit home in a small cart, one trip at a time.
Lin Anshu and the others just kept picking vegetables, picking vegetables and picking vegetables.
As for why it wasn't called Xu Yi.
The main issue is that Xu Yi is still a minor.
If it's a busy day, then you have to call him.
But since it was something that required getting up before dawn, Lin Anshu decided not to wake him.
Wait until dawn, then call him over.
As a result, Xu Yi cried.
As dawn broke, the entire field was fully revealed to everyone.
Ji Chuan pounded his lower back and sighed for the twelfth time.
Alas, Young Master Ji's life is truly too miserable!
She clearly comes from a prestigious family and is extremely wealthy.
But ironically, this rich young master still had to start squatting in the fields in the countryside at four in the morning to dig for vegetables.
The night before, before going to bed, he posted the message in the group chat of our loving family.
His parents, however, said they didn't believe him.
They also said he was bragging.
So when he got up at around 4 a.m. this morning, he first sent a message in the group.
Once he got to the field, he filmed a short video and posted it in the group chat of their loving family.
Then, he made Lin Anshu take photos and videos of him working hard, and she took a lot of them.
When he sent the photos and videos that Lin Anshu had taken for him to the group chat...
He had only sent two messages and was about to send the third when he discovered that his dad had kicked him out of the group chat again.
His dad even sent him a message, telling him not to act crazy so late at night.
He says he doesn't sleep, but everyone else does.
Disturbing others' sleep is really immoral! It shows a lack of manners!
His father also warned him very seriously not to send private messages to his mother late at night.
If he wakes his mother up, he'll stay in the village for the entire Chinese New Year and won't be coming home.
After it was all over, I blocked him!
Ji Chuan: "???"
The rural night concealed Ji Chuan's tears.
He cried.
He was faking it.
Well, he's gotten used to it over the years.
Waaah, but for some reason, his heart still aches so much.
Why should he be kicked out of the group just because of a disagreement?
Can't the parents just mute the group chat?
Besides!
What's wrong with him sending a message in the early hours of the morning?
Who was it that didn't believe he could get up so early to work the day before?
He was just trying to prove that he was indeed trying to reform himself and be a better person!
Ji Chuan, who was deeply saddened, told Lin Anshu about it.
Instead of comforting him, Lin Anshu just laughed out loud.
"Ji Chuan, you weren't a free gift with a phone top-up, were you?"
"From you, I have fully realized one sentence."
"What?"
"Children are an accident, parents are the true love."
"..." Ji Chuan.
"Hey, Lin Anshu, I'm telling you this to get your comfort, not to kick you when you're down!"
"The way you're acting right now is like rubbing salt into my wounds, you know?" Ji Chuan complained angrily as he struggled to pull up the cabbage.
"I'll start paying your salary next month!"
"As for the salary, the base salary is 2800, and the commission is three percent of Taotao's store sales."
"In addition, meals are provided, and there are other benefits," Lin Anshu suddenly said.
"Is that true? What kind of benefits?" Ji Chuan asked curiously.
"I can give you five pounds of each of the vegetables and fruits I grow at home for free."
"If it weighs more than five pounds, I can sell it to you at a discounted price."
"As for what you eat, you can eat as much as you want, it's free."
"That's so good? Lin Anshu, are you serious?" Ji Chuan asked in disbelief.
"certainly!"
"I'm sorry, Lin Anshu, I was wrong."
"Um?"
“I shouldn’t have called you a capitalist, I repent. You’re actually a pretty good person.” Ji Chuan.
