In the afternoon, the two of them, fully armed, left the educated youth compound.
Masks, gloves, and hats were all worn. In case the weather was cold, the two of them also wore thin cotton-padded jackets underneath, and heated insoles were placed in their shoes. With these, they walked proudly and confidently to the edge of the fields.
Qin Feng saw the two from afar, and seeing them get out of bed covered up like that, he was so angry that his lips twitched again.
When the two of them walked up to him, Qin Feng didn't even want to see them. He waved his hand and gave them a separate plot of land to cultivate. Then he walked away with his hands behind his back.
They were given only one mu (approximately 0.16 acres) of land. The couple breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and then stormed into the field.
One, two, three, hey! Let's go!
Two, three, four, hey, let's keep going and have fun!
Three, four, five, I'm the best at having fun!
456 Hi, I'm the best!
Five, six, seven, I can't take it anymore...
Five minutes later, Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Lu stood facing each other, panting heavily, their eyes both red.
"Honey, I'm so tired!"
"Honey, me too."
"Waaaah... I'm so weak, why do I have to do all the work?"
"Waaah... It's not like I don't have money, why do I have to earn work points?"
"Husband~"
"Wife~"
"Waaaaah..."
The couple embraced and wept bitterly, their cries filled with unbearable grief, as if their parents had died.
Not far away, Qin Feng and Su Zhiyuan, who had been watching the two, twitched their lips and looked at each other speechlessly.
"This is your good son."
“Your eldest niece is just as good.”
"well!"
"well!"
Two men in their forties squatted on the path leading to the field, looking worried. They silently took out cigarettes, lit one for the other, took a deep drag, looked up at each other, and saw helplessness and heartache in each other's eyes.
Even if it hurts, I have to endure it, otherwise how can I explain it to the village?
"How about we go look around somewhere else?"
"That's a very nice thing to say. Hurry up, we'll finish the work in a bit."
The two grown men stood up at the same time, each taking a faster step than the other, and quickly left the scene, running into the distance.
Su Lu and Qin Xiaoxiao looked at each other. Qin Xiaoxiao hardened her heart and said, "Let's keep going, otherwise it will be too embarrassing."
Su Lu and Qin Xiaoxiao simultaneously turned their heads to look at the plot of land next to them, and at the same time, their lips twitched.
Next to me were members of the fourth team, an old man in his forties. He worked incredibly fast, and not only fast, but also well. The gutter lines were straight, like soldiers standing guard. Then look at them, holy crap! Which dog chewed this up?
Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Lu exchanged a glance and looked up at the sky at the same time.
"Honey, it's getting late. Hurry up and finish so we can go back to Grandpa and Grandma's for dinner."
"Yes, my uncle told us to go back this morning, otherwise my grandparents would worry if we went back too late."
The two of them talked as if they were incredibly capable, which made the old man standing nearby roll his eyes at them with disdain.
Crouch down, and keep going.
Five minutes later, Qin Xiaoxiao ran to Su Lu crying and held up her paws to show him, "Husband, look, they're all red."
A pair of soft, white paws were held up in front of his eyes. Su Lu took off his gloves, took Qin Xiaoxiao's hand with a look of heartache, and blew on it. "It's okay, my dear wife. Let me blow on it for you."
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
After blowing on it a few times, Su Lu looked at Qin Xiaoxiao with red eyes and said, "Wife, I'm sorry, marrying me has made you suffer."
Qin Xiaoxiao was deeply moved and shook her head, saying, "No, I'm not wronged. Marrying you is the greatest blessing of my life."
"Wife~"
"Husband~"
The two gazed at each other affectionately, completely oblivious to the elderly men in the fourth group standing nearby, who looked utterly bewildered.
The old man couldn't take it anymore and buried himself in his work.
As long as I don't look, nothing happens.
The two then each gave a speech, expressing their determination to work hard, even though it would be tiring, they were determined to persevere.
Then the two separated, their expressions fierce, looking at Tian Di as if he were their enemy.
Swing the pickaxe and keep going.
Three minutes later, Su Lu exclaimed "Ouch!" Qin Xiaoxiao rushed over, looking anxious. "Honey, what happened? Where are you hurt? Let me see."
Su Lu raised his hand, tears welling up in his eyes. "Wife, I've pricked my hand. This pickaxe has spikes."
Qin Xiaoxiao became even more nervous. She grabbed Su Lu's hand and examined it carefully. She exclaimed in surprise, "Honey, there really is a thorn. Just bear with it, I'll pull it out for you."
It took Qin Xiaoxiao a full half hour to remove a single thorn. Of course, it could have been done much faster, but Qin Xiaoxiao stubbornly dragged it out for half an hour, one scream after another. Su Lu tacitly approved of Qin Xiaoxiao's behavior and even joined in the chorus.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
"Wife, be careful."
"Here, squeeze it tighter."
"Waaaah... Honey, it hurts."
"Wow, I can't take it anymore, it hurts so much."
"Ah, it seems like it went in a bit too deep, honey, slow down."
...
The old man next to them had already moved to the other side of the field, refusing to even glance at Su Lu and Qin Xiaoxiao.
Half an hour later, Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Lu returned to their respective positions and buried themselves in their work.
Ten minutes later, Qin Xiaoxiao started crying while working, "Waaah... I'm so tired. I have to bear it. I have to contribute to my country. I came here to help my fellow farmers, not to enjoy myself. This is what I should do, but I'm so tired, waaah..."
When Su Lu saw Qin Xiaoxiao crying, he ran over and squatted down beside her, crying along with her. "My poor wife, sob sob sob... I feel so sorry for you!"
Having lost his parents, he still went to the countryside. His ideological awareness is so high, why doesn't anyone give him any praise or anything?
Look how tired I've made my wife; she's sweating all over."
He casually wiped away the tears from Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes, ignoring her clean forehead.
"Honey! Shouldn't we be off work? I'm hungry."
Su Lu looked up at the sky.
It seems like they've only been working for an hour.
Su Lu looked miserable. "No, it's only been an hour."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoxiao burst into tears, "Waaah... I can't live like this anymore, I'm so tired!"
Su Lu took the pickaxe from Qin Xiaoxiao and said, "Wife, go rest for a while, I'll help you."
Qin Xiaoxiao looked at Su Lugan's side with a troubled expression, "But you still have a lot of work to do."
It should be said that Su Lu did about the same amount of work as her, about five meters each. It's not that she didn't do a lot of work; it's that she didn't even start.
Suddenly, Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, as if she had discovered some great treasure. "Honey, I've improved! I did five meters in an hour. Last year, I only did five meters a day."
Su Lu looked at Qin Xiaoxiao with a surprised expression, "Really?"
Then, with a look of pride, he exclaimed, "I knew my wife was the most capable! Honey, you're amazing!"
The old man at the edge of the field had given up talking; he was completely resigned to his fate.
What heinous thing did he do to end up with those two bastards?
Those two shameless bastards have the nerve to say they worked five meters in an hour; even a five-year-old in the village could do it faster than them.
