These villagers are clearly not qualified to compete with Luo Zixi; they're just asking for trouble.
Ten minutes passed quickly. Luo Zixi looked calm and collected, but the amount of corn she had picked was more than twice that of the person who had picked the most among them.
Everyone saw that the corn was like an obedient baby; Luo Zixi could easily touch it and it would fall down.
Others had to twist and turn a few times to break off an ear of corn, and even the quickest ones couldn't match Luo Zixi's speed.
In this way, everyone understood that it wasn't Luo Zixi who was being cunning and deceitful, but rather that she actually had real skills!
"Wow, I never would have guessed! This educated youth, Luo, is really good at working. How come the corn fell off so easily?"
"Exactly. If I had that kind of skill, wouldn't I earn twice as many work points?"
"It seems that Luo Zhiqing didn't get first place because she didn't give it her all. She could easily do enough for us to work all day..."
The villagers below started discussing it again, but the tide had completely turned, with most of them praising it.
That's how it is in the countryside. As long as a person is diligent, hardworking, and skilled in farm work, they will be praised by everyone.
No matter where you are, you have to rely on your abilities!
After Luo Zixi demonstrated her strength, everyone in the group, both men and women, were convinced.
They admire those who are capable. They used to know that Luo Zixi was good at fighting and were a little afraid of her. Now that they know that Luo Zixi is actually very capable, they admire her even more.
The village party secretary's eyes lit up at this moment, and he couldn't help but ask Luo Zixi with a smile:
"Wow, Luo Zhiqing's skills are truly amazing! I wonder if you could teach us villagers? If everyone could learn your skills, how many times would our production efficiency increase?"
Luo Zixi rolled her eyes and said in an annoyed tone:
"This is a unique skill passed down in my family. Do you think I can teach it? Putting that aside, even if I were willing to teach it, not many people could learn it."
"First, it requires talent; second, it requires diligent practice day and night for ten years or so before you can accomplish things as easily as I can. How many people in this village do you think could stick to that?"
"And it only looks easy on the surface, but it's actually quite tiring and physically demanding. You might get a lot of work points, but you also eat a lot. There are a lot of tricks to it, which I can't explain to you in a short time..."
Well, upon hearing this, the village secretary immediately deflated, realizing he had been too optimistic.
How could they easily teach someone else their family's unique skills? Besides, mastering such skills would definitely require a lot of effort.
He had heard about these things before, so in the end he decided to let it go.
No wonder Luo Zhiqing is so powerful; he has a unique family skill passed down through generations.
Luo Zixi explained it, which saved some people from finding fault.
Sure enough, upon hearing this news, everyone valued Luo Zixi even more. After all, someone with both talent and a special family background was bound to have a bright future; perhaps she was only staying here for a short time and would soon return to the city.
People have always respected those who are capable.
As a result, everyone's attitude towards Luo Zixi changed from fear to respect.
Some people even thought that they could let their sons learn a skill from Luo Zixi.
Putting everything else aside, with that terrifying fighting power alone, no one will dare to bully him when he goes out into the world.
Suddenly, many villagers had other ideas.
Of course, none of them had any bad intentions, nor would they dare to; they just wanted to learn some skills from Luo Zixi.
Luo Zixi didn't care what others thought; she was only focused on the few who had lost.
"Alright, the difference in skill is clear. You're all better than me. Hurry up and apologize! I'm a stickler for rules, so if you don't apologize, then I'll just have to... slap you all in front of everyone!"
Several aunties spoke up first, saying that if they were slapped in the face in public by such a girl, they would be too ashamed to live:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Luo Zhiqing. We were wrong before. We talked nonsense without understanding the situation. It was wrong of us. We won't do it again."
Luo Zixi bluntly replied:
"If I ever hear you gossiping behind my back again, I'll kick you first."
Several middle-aged women immediately shook their heads and waved their hands, indicating that they dared not do it again. They had already lost enough today, what else could they do?
The young people here blushed with embarrassment and apologized to Luo Zixi, who simply gave a cold laugh.
"Aren't you guys being unreasonable? A bunch of grown men, acting like women, always stirring up trouble and whining. You might as well just be castrated and become women instead of men."
Luo Zixi's words caused some people around to burst into laughter, while several young people felt utterly ashamed and indignant. One of them, who had a more outspoken personality, shouted directly:
"Luo Zixi, we have already apologized, don't push your luck!"
As a result, he was pulled back by his mother as soon as he finished speaking. The aunt hurriedly nodded and bowed to Luo Zixi, saying:
"Young Master Luo, my Gangzi is being unreasonable, don't hold it against him. I'll teach him a lesson when we get back!"
The aunt immediately started scolding her son:
"What kind of trash are you, daring to go against Luo Zhiqing? Don't you want to die? Get back here right now, or I'll cut off your rebellious spirit!"
The other young men quickly slunk back to their families, not daring to utter a word, because they all saw that the educated youth was about to beat someone up again.
Luo Zixi was relatively lenient with the older women and young girls, but she didn't need to give these young men any face.
If you're going to pick a fight with a girl, she's not exactly a good person to begin with. Why should you give them any face? Just give her a piece of your mind.
Luo Zixi wanted to retort with a few more words, but the village secretary stopped her:
"Alright, Luo Zhiqing, things are cleared up, and they've apologized. Let's leave it at that. Luo Zhiqing's skills are superb, and her performance was outstanding. She deserves praise, everyone! Let's give her a round of applause!"
It's clear that the village party secretary is playing the peacemaker again, but the villagers' applause is genuinely enthusiastic; they all like capable people.
Moreover, Luo, the educated youth, did this for the sake of her reputation. Just think about it, a young woman, all alone in a foreign land, especially in such a poor and remote place, it really wasn't easy.
Luo Zixi earned everyone's respect through her own strength.
After the applause subsided, a young and energetic voice rang out:
"Is Comrade Luo Zixi here? There's a package and a letter for you!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Zixi turned around to look at the source of the voice, and saw a handsome, sunny postman with red lips and white teeth, looking at her with curiosity.
