"Let's go eat first, and then I'll take you back."
Song Shishi nodded.
Because of this delay, she didn't get to do her afternoon work, and she had to get up early later to make up for it.
When they arrived at Huaiqing Brigade, it was already completely dark.
Xu Qiang also had to deal with Xu Li's affairs, so he and Meng Xunzhou stayed at Xu Guiying's house at night.
Xu Guiying suffered a loss and dared not to do anything evil again.
Meng Xunzhou sent Song Shishi back to the educated youth point and handed her the book in his hand.
"These books should be enough for you to read for a while. I'll send you better ones when I get them."
Looking at the book in her hand, Song Shishi couldn't help but think again of what Xu Li said to her in the ward.
...
...
But she has already suffered a loss at the hands of An Jinsheng once, can she really still trust others?
No, no!
Song Shishi shook her head, trying to get rid of all the random thoughts in her mind.
Her most important task now is to make outstanding contributions to Huai Qing, so that she can get the opportunity to return to the city early.
In this life, she wants to live well for herself.
She still has to go back and spend more time with her parents.
As for matters of the heart, she no longer has any extravagant expectations.
"Shishi, what's wrong?"
As soon as Song Shishi raised her eyes, she met Meng Xunzhou's worried gaze.
Her face turned red immediately.
Fortunately, it was dark now and Meng Xunzhou couldn't see clearly.
"It's okay, thank you for your book, it means a lot to me. It's getting late, I'm going in."
"Okay, go to bed early."
Meng Xunzhou looked at the closed gate in front of him and smiled helplessly.
There is still a long way to go!
Sighing, he walked towards Xu Guiying's house.
"How's it going? Did you send it back?"
Xu Qiang was fetching water in the yard. When he saw Meng Xunzhou coming back, he asked casually.
Meng Xunzhou walked to the stone pier next to him and sat down. "Why do I feel like she's a little weird since she came back from the hospital, but I can't tell what's wrong with her."
Xu Qiang scratched his head, "Well... I might know why."
"Why?"
Xu Qiang raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "But Boss, let's make this clear first. After I finish speaking, you can't do anything."
Meng Xunzhou narrowed his eyes and said, "You say."
"In order to comfort my sister, I just... told her that you liked Song Zhiqing."
For the last sentence, Xu Qiang's voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum, but Meng Xunzhou still heard it clearly.
Meng Xunzhou moved as fast as lightning, approached Xu Qiang and kicked him out.
"Didn't we agree not to use force?" Xu Qiang screamed.
Meng Xunzhou walked over quickly, pretending to kick him, "When did I start a fight?"
"Boss, you... I was wrong. I didn't expect my sister to be so quick-witted."
Hearing her brother's screams, Xu Li leaned on the window and looked out.
Even as she watched the two of them fighting, she felt that this moment was very happy.
But...her brother will have to go back to the army eventually, and then she will be alone again.
…
Song Shishi got up early today and planted the vegetable seeds in the vegetable garden at the back. I don’t know what they look like now.
Counting the days, they should be about to sprout, and today happens to be her day to look after the vegetable garden.
In order to verify her idea, Song Shishi made a simple plastic shed when planting the seeds in order to maintain the temperature of the growing environment for these vegetables.
But when she arrived at the vegetable garden, she found that her plastic shed had been thrown outside the garden.
Fortunately, the people who destroyed the shed did not destroy her seeds.
Because Song Shishi saw that the spinach and lettuce seeds she planted had sprouted.
After watering the vegetable garden, Song Shishi put the plastic shed back up.
It is autumn now, and we are in the mountains, with a big temperature difference between morning and evening. With a plastic sheeting, vegetables can grow better.
If the experiment is successful, she can use the fruits of her own cultivation to persuade the captain.
Once this method becomes popular, everyone's life will be better.
However, seeing the plastic shed she had worked so hard to build being destroyed today, Song Shishi realized that it was indeed inappropriate for her to conduct experiments in the vegetable field of the educated youth site.
She still needs to think of other solutions.
It didn't take much time to work in the vegetable garden. When I finished and went out, the female educated youth in their room hadn't gotten up yet.
Song Shishi took the farm tools early and went to work in the fields.
When Captain Zhou Jianguo saw it, he was surprised.
He also knew what happened at Xu Guiying's house yesterday, so he also knew that Song Shishi was injured.
I thought the educated youth were all delicate, and since they were injured yesterday, they would definitely not come to work today.
But I didn't expect that Song Shishi would be the first one.
Zhou Jianguo nodded with satisfaction, and then recorded ten work points in Song Shishi's registration book.
Because of the difference in physical strength between men and women, male educated youth were assigned larger areas than female educated youth, so for the same day's work, male educated youth generally earned ten work points.
The female educated youth only received eight work points.
If you were like Jiang Cuihua and chose to do an easy job like picking grass for pigs during the busy farming season, you would only get two work points.
Song Shishi was completely unaware of Zhou Jianguo's behavior.
She was determined to catch up on all the work she hadn't finished yesterday.
When An Jinsheng came, he was surprised to see Song Shishi, who was already exhausted and sweating.
At the same time, he had a different kind of feeling towards Song Shishi.
He himself didn't know what it was specifically.
It's just that he felt that he might have approached Song Shishi with a purpose at the beginning, but through spending time and getting to know each other over the past few days, he cared more and more about Song Shishi.
When he can't see her, he wonders what she is doing.
When he saw it, he couldn't help but look in her direction.
Even if he didn't say anything and just stayed by her side quietly, he would be happy.
Especially when Song Shishi tacitly allowed him to help her harvest wheat, he was so excited that he wanted to cheer.
Although Song Shishi had rejected him, he thought that was just a woman's modesty.
As time goes by, Song Shishi will get to know him better and will definitely fall in love with him.
While thinking about his worries, An Jinsheng walked to Song Shishi's side unknowingly.
Song Shishi felt someone approaching, so she stopped and took a look.
Just by seeing the pair of shoes behind him, Song Shishi knew it was An Jinsheng.
She ignored him and continued to cut the wheat.
"Comrade Song, why don't you take a break and drink some water? If you keep working like this, your body won't be able to take it. Don't worry, I'll finish my work and help you finish the rest before we go home."
An Jinsheng thought he was being affectionate, but Song Shishi just said calmly, "Thank you, but no thanks."
He didn't even raise his head.
An Jinsheng pursed his lips, looked around, and saw several old educated youth looking at him and laughing.
It was obvious that they were making fun of him.
But he thought that if he could get along with Song Shishi, all the malted milk and food would be his.
Song Shishi is a good cook, so he won’t lose out even if he marries her.
After realizing this, he no longer paid attention to those old educated youth and turned to harvest wheat in the area he was responsible for.
When everyone was busy, Zhou Jianguo's voice came from the loudspeaker.
"Emergency notice, emergency notice!"
"Comrades, please pay attention! I am Captain Zhou Jianguo."
"We have reached a critical time for wheat harvesting, but the weather forecast says it will rain tomorrow."
"Once it rains, our remaining wheat will be in danger. Whether it sprouts or gets moldy, it's a loss we can't afford!"
"So, today we must work harder and try our best to harvest the last bit of wheat!"
"This is a matter that concerns our annual harvest and the distribution of food to every household!"
“…”
Song Shishi looked up at the sky. It seemed that she had been working very late today.
…
Meng Xunzhou and Xu Qiang sat face to face with Xu Guiying early in the morning, ready to discuss Xu Li's affairs.
Xu Guiying's husband Chen Fu left home early in the morning because he had to go to work.
Although Chen Jialiang's wrist was fine, he was afraid when he saw Xu Qiang and Meng Xunzhou, so he made the excuse of feeling unwell and hid in the house.
So the scene in the main hall now is that Xu Guiying is sitting opposite Xu Qiang and the other three, with her arms folded across her chest, looking unmoved.
"Just tell me what you want!"
Xu Qiang glanced at Xu Li and said, "We don't want the money I sent back before. Just consider it as your hard work in taking care of Lili, aunt."
Xu Guiying raised her eyebrows, a hint of pride showing on her face.
It seemed like she had already expected this result.
"you……"
