On this side, Tongzhi Ying and Su Ruoli were having a great time and chatting happily, while on the other side, there was a chaos among the newly arrived educated youth.
The most obvious one is Wang Yanfen.
Because Wang Yanfen arrived late, she was assigned to the peanut field to weed the peanuts. The person in charge of teaching her was a widow from the village. No one knew her name, but everyone called her Widow Wang.
Widow Wang was not an easy person to talk to. Her husband passed away early, and she had a little girl to raise. If she was not aggressive, there would be no place for them both to survive in this village.
After teaching Wang Yanfen several times, seeing that Wang Yanfen was still slow and kept picking peanuts, Widow Wang immediately quit.
Standing up and putting his hands on his hips, he said, "Wang Zhiqing, can you please do your job properly? If you pull these peanuts, your work points will be deducted. If you don't eat, my family still needs to eat. If you pull them again, I will go to the team leader. Whoever wants to teach me can teach me. I can't teach you, a great god."
Widow Wang's daughter is still in school and depends on her little centimeters to survive. If a centimeter is deducted, what will she and her daughter eat?
Wang Yanfen said with a look of grievance: "Auntie, this is my first time working, so it's normal to work slowly. Who can do a job quickly and well the first time? Besides, I'm not lazy."
When Widow Wang saw that she was still feeling wronged, she immediately became furious.
"You're not being lazy, but I've taught you so many times, and you can't just pick the peanuts. Look at those guys next to you, aren't they new here too? It's their first time working, too, so how come they're doing so well?"
"I won't say anything if you're lazy, but you're wrong to pick the peanuts. Everyone depends on these peanuts for the New Year. If you pick them all, what will we eat?"
Widow Wang was really mad, she put her hands on her hips and gasped for breath.
The commotion here quickly attracted the attention of the people around. These days, with no other entertainment options, gossip was the best way to relieve stress. Wherever there was a stir, there would be crowds of people.
Everyone dropped their work and looked over here, but Widow Wang showed no intention of stopping and continued to attack Wang Yanfen.
Wang Yanfen is just lazy, not stupid. Feeling the strange looks from everyone, she felt ashamed and angry.
He could only pull at Widow Wang's trouser legs and whispered, "Auntie, could you please be quieter? I will try my best to do it well. Could you please stop scolding me?"
Huang Deren, who was working on the ground nearby, came over to help Wang Yanfen and said, "Auntie, we are just new here and are not familiar with farm work. Once we get familiar with it, we will definitely be able to do it quickly and well."
"Bah! If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. I've taught you something over a dozen times, and you still do it wrong. Even a dog should have learned it by now.
"And look at her. Didn't she just get here too? Look at her field. Half of the sweet potato vines are already turned over. I think she's just here to slack off."
Everyone looked in the direction that Widow Wang pointed, only to see that Su Ruoli's sweet potato vines had already been half turned over.
Wang Yanfen also looked over with anger on her face. Su Ruoli, that bitch, must have done it on purpose. If she hadn't done it so quickly, how could she be so embarrassed.
Su Ruoli was indeed oblivious to the world outside, concentrating solely on turning over the sweet potato vines. She looked at the remaining work, figuring she could finish it by noon, and now it was almost time for breakfast.
Seeing that he could not persuade Widow Wang, Huang Deren quietly withdrew from the battle between Widow Wang and Wang Yanfen. He had not finished his work yet, and if he did not go back to work, the person who led him would probably scold him.
Seeing how hard Su Ruoli was working, Tongzhi Ying came over and pulled Su Ruoli, "Ruoli girl, come and sit down and rest for a while. It's time for dinner soon. We can finish the rest after dinner."
Su Ruoli and Tongzhiying sat on the edge of the ridge. As soon as they sat down, Su Ruoli noticed something rushing towards them. Following her body's instinct, she pulled Tongzhiying to the side.
Then there was a "bang" sound, and a human-like shadow fell to the ground from where the two were sitting, and dust flew around them.
"Wow! What is that? I was so scared. Luckily you pulled me over, otherwise I would have been hit and vomited blood!" Tongzhi Ying patted his chest and said in shock.
When the dust settled, Su Ruoli saw a person lying on the ground. Because his head was buried in the ground, Su Ruoli couldn't tell who it was for a moment.
Wang Yanfen lay on the ground for a long time before finally getting up. The first thing she did when she got up was pointing at Su Ruoli, "Su Ruoli, did you do this on purpose?"
It was only when Wang Yanfen got up that Su Ruoli recognized her. Isn't this Wang Yanfen? What is she doing?
Wang Yanfen looked a little funny because her whole body was covered in dirt, including her hair and face, just like a Terracotta Warrior.
Su Ruoli curled her lips helplessly. What did this have to do with her? Why was she blamed? "What do you mean I did it on purpose? What did I do?"
Wang Yanfen stamped her feet in anger, and then there was another burst of dust. She pointed at Su Ruoli and shouted, "You... you clearly did this on purpose. You don't like me in the first place, so you always want to see me make a fool of myself, right?"
Su Ruoli was also speechless. "What does it have to do with me? I felt something rushing towards me, and I couldn't move? Do I deserve to be hit? What kind of bandit logic is this?"
Wang Yanfen pointed at Su Ruoli, "You...you...you..." She just kept calling him "you" for a long time, but nothing came out of her.
Suddenly she realized that there seemed to be something wrong with the way people around her looked at her, and Su Ruoli was also looking at her with a smile.
