After a nice nap, Su Ruoli took her Chinese textbook from her freshman year of high school and went out with Zhang Sitong in the afternoon.
Although those aunts worked very quickly, it was still too slow for Su Ruoli.
She would take this book to kill time and consolidate her knowledge. When the college entrance examination was resumed, she would take the exam.
Because they had finished the work on that field in the morning, they went to another field in the afternoon.
Su Ruoli first found a shady place to sit, took out her Chinese textbook and started reading. She had a photographic memory and could remember everything she read as long as she read it once.
The aunts saw her flipping through the Chinese textbook slowly while they were busy moving corn. They were both envious and angry at Su Ruoli.
The four of them work so hard that others still have time to rest. Don’t they have any dignity?
Several of them secretly thought that they would not be able to work with Su Ruoli in the future because it was too tiring and they did not dare to rest for even a moment.
Su Ruoli read the Chinese textbook for two hours, and the remaining two hours were enough for work.
Su Ruoli put the Chinese textbook on the ground, picked up the machete and started working.
While the aunts finished moving the corn, Su Ruoli also finished cutting the corn stalks.
Su Ruoli went back to get her Chinese textbook and lined up to calculate her work points, and then she heard the aunts in front of her complaining to the team leader.
"Captain, can you arrange other work for Su Zhiqing?"
Liu Guofeng asked, "What's wrong? Why isn't she working? That shouldn't be the case. She works pretty fast."
"It's just that we work so fast, we don't even have time to drink water. It's so tiring!"
Liu Guofeng said disdainfully, "You four can't beat a little girl? Aren't you ashamed? How dare you bring it up!"
"There's nothing shameful about this. He's really good at his job."
Another woman also said, "Captain, the daily work points are fixed. If Su Zhiqing earns more, then we will earn less and less."
"Yes, Captain! We all live on work points. Now she's earning all the work points. What are we going to eat?"
Liu Guofeng waved his hand impatiently and said, "Alright, alright, I got it! Hurry up and finish the work points and go back. I'll arrange other work for her tomorrow!"
The full work points for girls in a day are eight points. Su Ruoli earned sixteen points in a day. After calculating the work points, she happily went to find Zhang Sitong. She was happy, but some people were not happy.
Especially Wang Yanfen, when she saw that Su Ruoli had sixteen work points, she immediately quit. Why did she only have six work points while Su Ruoli had sixteen?
He shouted loudly to Liu Guofeng: "Captain, you can't be so partial. Why do you give her so many work points?" While saying this, he pointed at Su Ruoli's name.
Liu Guofeng got a headache whenever he heard Wang Yanfen's voice. Why was this person so annoying? He had already reported this to the Youth League Office last time, but he didn't know when he could get rid of this annoying person.
Liu Jinhua was also annoyed with Wang Yanfen. Every time she calculated work points, she complained that they were too few, without even considering how much work she had done.
Giving her a six is out of sympathy, and yet she's still complaining. "She earned it through her own ability, why do you say that?"
"We all go to work and go to work in the same way. We all work hard at work, but she just sits in the field. Can she earn so many work points just by sitting there?" Wang Yanfen deliberately raised her voice.
"After saying so much, what you mean is that you also want so many work points, right?" Liu Jinhua asked.
"Yes, otherwise, you are being unfair." Wang Yanfen said.
Liu Jinhua said, "Okay, then go cut the corn stalks from two plots of land tomorrow. If you finish cutting them by the end of the afternoon, I'll give you 16 work points."
"Okay, it's just cutting corn stalks, such a simple thing!" Wang Yanfen said confidently.
Liu Jinhua laughed and said, "Then you can leave today. I will help you get two plots of land tomorrow."
Then he turned to Liu Guofeng and said, "Dad, did you hear that? Zhiqing Wang needs to cut corn stalks from two plots of land tomorrow. You should arrange for her to do it tomorrow so she doesn't keep complaining about us being unfair."
Liu Guofeng nodded and said, "I heard it!" Then he said to the crowd, "Everyone should learn from Wang Zhiqing. Look at how motivated he is."
Haha! They don't want such ambition. It's like risking their lives to make progress. They work on the farm every day and it's hard to cut one piece of land a day, let alone two.
Don’t think that it’s easy for them to chop wood. After bending over for a whole day, they feel like their waists are not theirs anymore.
Cutting corn stalks looks simple, but it is really tiring to do. Some people can cut two fields a day, but that is because they are good, and they can't learn it.
Su Ruoli found Zhang Sitong still sitting in the corn pile peeling corn, "Why are you still peeling? It's time to get off work, let's go! Go home!!"
"But I haven't finished peeling mine yet. There's still a pile of them here." Zhang Sitong said, pointing to a pile of corn next to her.
"Don't tell me this pile is all yours." Su Ruoli said after looking at the pile of corn.
"Yeah!" Zhang Sitong nodded pitifully.
"What did you do in the afternoon? Why are there so many left? Others have peeled them all." Su Ruoli asked.
Zhang Sitong said, "I don't know either. I just tried to peel the corn like they did, but the corn wouldn't cooperate at all. What can I do?"
Corn: You have no ability, and now you blame me!!!
"Great!" Su Ruoli gave a thumbs up.
He put on his gloves again, picked up a stalk and started to peel the grains. He finished peeling the whole stalk in a few strokes, saying:
"Isn't this quite simple?" He sighed and said, "Luckily your family can support you. If they didn't care about you, you would probably..."
Su Ruoli shook her head. This child is only suitable for collecting grass for pigs, and there is no need to consider other farm work.
With Su Ruoli's help, the two of them finally finished shelling the corn after thirty minutes.
Su Ruoli accompanied Zhang Sitong to calculate the work points, and then they walked home hand in hand.
"Ruoli, thank you for today. Without your help, I would probably have to work until ten o'clock." Zhang Sitong said.
"You peeled for so long and only earned five work points." Su Ruoli said.
Zhang Sitong said, "Who says it's not? This job is really not for humans. I'm exhausted."
Su Ruoli thought, if you were asked to cut corn stalks, it would probably take you three days to work on one piece of land, which would be tiring.
Fortunately, she was very strong and found the work easy, so she was able to finish the work so early.
I just don't know what kind of work the team leader will assign her tomorrow, and it's probably impossible for her to earn double work points.
It would actually be nice if she could go to work like before, at least she could allocate her afternoon time freely.
