Village Chief: "Gu Xiliang, were you just going to stand by and watch? Why didn't you tell him that these are peanut seedlings, crops, and that they can't be pulled up?"
Gu Xiliang felt extremely wronged and quickly explained, "Village chief, I just arrived. How was I supposed to know he wouldn't recognize which was grass and which was peanut seedling?"
The village chief took a few deep breaths. Well, it was his carelessness.
They forgot that Jiang Jinhua was a city kid who couldn't distinguish between grass and crops.
"Gu Xiliang, you and Jiang Jinhua, replant the peanut seedlings you pulled out. If you don't, I'll deduct your work points. I'll come back to check later." After saying that, the village chief left.
He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would lose his temper and start cursing.
This is such a waste of crops.
"Village chief, village chief..." Gu Xiliang wanted to call out to the village chief to argue, but what did this have to do with him?
But the village chief seemed not to hear him and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
All that was left was Gu Xiliang, who was caught in the crossfire, and Jiang Jinhua, who looked completely innocent.
Looking at the peanut seedlings piled up haphazardly with the weeds, Gu Xiliang felt a headache coming on.
Why would he come looking for Jiang Jinhua if he had nothing to do with it?
If he doesn't come, then it's none of his business.
Ahhh...
I'm about to break down, what should I do?
He shouted at the sky a few times to relieve the frustration in his heart.
He looked at Jiang Jinhua with a cold expression and said, "Jiang Jinhua, come here. I'll only teach you which ones are grass and which ones are peanut seedlings. You can figure out the rest yourself."
"The village chief asked you to come with me to replant the peanut seedlings. If you don't, I'll go tell the village chief."
Gu Xiliang: "..."
I really want to fight him.
He resignedly took a few deep breaths and said, "Come here, I'll teach you how to distinguish between peanut seedlings and weeds."
Jiang Jinhua obediently walked up to him, looking like a good student.
After teaching Jiang Jinhua several times to make sure she could recognize it, Gu Xiliang started working on his own.
He picked out peanut seedlings from the weeds and planted them.
But when he looked back after planting a row, he found that the peanut seedlings Jiang Jinhua had picked out earlier were correct, but he had picked out a lot of weeds later.
Gu Xiliang broke down once again.
He simply took charge of selecting all the peanut seedlings himself and let Jiang Jinhua be responsible for planting them.
No matter how crooked or uneven the plants are, as long as they're in the soil, that's fine.
But not long after planting, Jiang Jinhua was too tired to move.
The scorching sun baked the earth.
Jiang Jinhua felt that even the air was hot.
His face was covered in sweat, which he wiped away repeatedly.
Their faces were covered in dirt.
His clothes were already soaked through.
In addition, he was wearing white clothes today, which made him stand out even more.
He had never done farm work before, and this was even more tiring than walking ten kilometers.
He threw the peanut seedlings in his hand aside and tried to turn around and call Gu Xiliang.
But they saw Gu Xiliang leaning against a big tree, enjoying the shade.
With her legs crossed and a blade of grass dangling from her mouth, she looked at him with a hint of schadenfreude.
Jiang Jinhua refused to accept this and ran straight to the shade of a tree, where she tackled Gu Xiliang to the ground.
"Are you even a brother? You just watch me work myself to the bone while you enjoy yourself here?"
Gu Xiliang rolled his eyes repeatedly: "You have the nerve to say that? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been targeted by the village chief. Besides, didn't I help you pick out all the peanut seedlings?"
"Hmph, you have to help me finish planting them all, otherwise, village chief..." Jiang Jinhua's words carried a hint of threat.
Gu Xiliang didn't care at all. He suggested, "Let's go play in the mountains. It's too hot now. We can come back and plant them later. Anyway, we can finish planting them today."
Upon hearing that they were going to the mountains, Jiang Jinhua forgot everything else, her eyes lit up, and she walked with the speed of the wind: "Let's go, let's go! I've always heard that the mountains in the countryside are full of treasures. I've wanted to go and see them for a long time."
"Okay, I'll show you around. There are so many good things on the mountain now, wild fruits and all sorts of things, you can't pick them all, and if you're lucky, you might even run into rabbits or pheasants..."
The more they talked, the more excited they became. They put their arms around each other's shoulders and headed up the mountain as they talked.
...
"Jiang Jinxiu, is Jiang Jinxiu there?"
Who is it?
Jiang Jinxiu heard someone calling her and walked towards the door while asking the question.
"I am Zhang Xiaolan, someone is looking for you."
Jiang Jinxiu opened the door and saw Zhang Xiaolan standing outside, and next to her stood someone she never expected.
Liu Caihong.
As soon as Liu Caihong saw her open the door, she went straight inside.
Jiang Jinxiu was stunned when she saw Liu Caihong.
Why is she here?
He came to see her again.
Zhang Xiaolan wanted to leave after dropping the person off.
Jiang Jinxiu called out to her, "Sister Xiaolan, why are you with her?"
“I met her on the way. She said she was your sister and asked me to bring her to see you. I was going the same way anyway, so I came with her,” Zhang Xiaolan said with a warm smile.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Jinxiu knew she meant well, but she still had to clarify to her: "Sister Xiaolan, she is not my sister. I don't have a sister, I only have a brother."
"This, this..." Zhang Xiaolan was a little embarrassed.
Did she mean well but end up doing something wrong?
Jiang Jinxiu didn't say anything more, turned around and went inside, intending to kick Liu Caihong out.
At this moment, Liu Caihong was searching for someone all over the yard, knocking on doors one by one: "Brother, big brother, where are you? It's me, Caihong."
