Chapter 87 Late
Early in the morning, Jiang Xiaoxiao woke up and went out for a run.
Since her rebirth, she has started exercising.
Compared to before, my body is really strong now.
There is absolutely no problem in doing the work.
We are hard-working people now. How can we work without a healthy body?
After running around, everyone in the house got up.
Seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao coming back from outside, Pan Xin rubbed his eyes and asked in confusion.
"Why are you here so early?"
"It's still early? We'll be gathering in half an hour. If you're late, there won't be any breakfast. Hurry up. There will be roll call on the first day of the gathering. Don't be late."
Jiang Xiaoxiao said while washing her face.
Pan Xin looked at Wang Hongbing who was still asleep.
"No! I need to sleep for a while."
She thought to herself that she wasn't the only one who was late.
Isn’t there a saying that the law cannot hold everyone responsible?
Jiang Xiaoxiao was speechless.
Jia Shu had already gotten up and went to the cafeteria with Jiang Xiaoxiao to have breakfast.
That is, a bowl of cornmeal porridge, a steamed bun and pickles.
The two went to the gathering grassland.
Quite a few people have arrived.
There are still some people who haven't arrived yet.
However, the production team leader could take a small notebook and write and draw there.
There was dissatisfaction on his face.
These educated youth all have no discipline.
Look at what time it is. We have agreed to meet.
There are still so many people missing.
Production team leader Li Dahu was very angry.
These young intellectuals in the city are just unreliable.
Even these rural people who can't read know that being on time is what they should do.
There is so much work to do in the team, how can no one show up when the time comes?
If we keep procrastinating, how many work points will be lost?
There is so much work to do in the fields, how can we let them waste time like this!
It seems that I have to deal with them properly.
He frowned, with a dark look on his face.
With a bad look on their faces, the people present finally stopped talking and laughing, and looked at the captain with some trepidation.
The new captain won’t come to give them a warning as soon as he comes in.
Li Dahu looked and saw that he hadn't come yet.
No more waiting.
"Okay, since they won't come, let's do it ourselves. Now let's start assigning tasks to everyone. Our team has the several thousand acres of land you see in front of you. When you came, it happened that the work on the land has been almost done. You can see that there is not much work left to do.
Now assign tasks.”
Li Dahu glanced at everyone.
Sure enough, after hearing this, many educated youth felt secretly regretful.
If I had known they would come later, I would have started working earlier.
Why should we ask them to start working earlier?
Li Dahu assigned the tasks calmly.
The rice in the field had already been harvested, and now they had to bundle the rice into bundles and then carry them to the edge of the field one by one.
There will be a cart over there, and the male educated youth can pull it directly to the threshing ground.
The female educated youth were divided into groups of two, and most of them were assigned to the tasks of tying rice and carrying rice.
The male educated youth were responsible for pushing the bus for transportation.
Many people think that carrying rice is a physical job.
Jiang Xiaoxiao naturally formed a group with Jia Shu.
Although Jia Shu also worked at home, she had never done farm work.
Jiang Xiaoxiao taught her step by step, after all, she had been doing these farm work for several years.
Even if she did these things with her eyes closed, she could do them skillfully and without any error.
The problem is that Jia Shu was shocked.
I was dumbfounded as I watched the rice being bundled up in just a few seconds with such quick and efficient movements.
Looking at Jiang Xiaoxiao in front of me, she has a delicate body and fair and tender skin.
Those hands didn't look like those of someone who did rough labor.
Who knew that the little girl would be more capable than her who was used to doing housework.
It seems that I really made a mistake.
Who among those who come to the countryside is unable to work?
Soon Jia Shu also learned how to bundle rice. Mainly because someone taught her the tricks, she learned quickly and saved energy, and she also avoided taking detours.
Two people, one tied the bundle while the other carried it.
The cooperation is very tacit.
Very fast.
Li Dahu watched the old educated youth teaching the young educated youth in the field.
He just said that when forming groups, it would be best for an old educated youth to lead a new educated youth.
This way we can help each other and learn from each other.
However, it is obvious that more new educated youth stick together. They are familiar with each other and think that farm work is easy.
Something you can learn just by looking at it.
Naturally, no one took his words seriously, but they became clear when they actually started working.
Look at those new educated youths who are in a mess. They can’t even tie the rice into bundles after half a day, and even if they do tie them up, they are still loose.
Those who are carrying rice will probably fall apart before they even reach the field.
He looked at it and frowned.
These young people really need some training.
If they work like this they will starve to death.
It looks like I'll be busy in the future.
He walked back and forth with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
Suddenly I saw two girls working hard in an inconspicuous corner.
Li Dahu stood aside and watched for a long time, and nodded.
You know what, he is very quick and efficient and does his work without any procrastination.
They look more like two people who have done some work.
Looking at the list in my hand, there are still more than a dozen people who have not arrived. Do they think going to the countryside is like having a warm bed at home?
Come whenever you want?
Li Dahu held his breath and waited to see when these people would arrive today.
If you don't teach them a lesson, they won't know their place.
I thought the farm was their home.
After two hours, Jiang Xiaoxiao was sweating all over.
Jia Shu was sweating profusely. For the first time, she understood why people were so scared when they talked about going to the countryside.
You know what, this job looks simple, but it’s really tiring when you do it.
I was getting more and more proficient at it, but my physical strength couldn't keep up.
My arms and legs started to ache, and my back and waist started to ache.
But look at Jiang Xiaoxiao.
The girl was still standing there without changing her expression. I didn't know where such a fair and clean girl got so much energy from.
They really train their children.
What do you do at home?
People who don’t know might think that Jiang Xiaoxiao does farm work at home.
Most people don't have this kind of agility.
Finally, the remaining dozen or so people arrived slowly.
As soon as he saw the captain Li Dahu, he said sorry, but there was no guilt on his face.
Looking at the dishevelled people working in the fields, the latecomers smiled in an unkind way.
They came late, but did less work.
It seems that they were right to arrive late. The captain would at most scold them a few words, but it wouldn't cost them a thing. However, they would have to do less work.
Li Daniu looked unhappy.
"You were two hours late. This is the production team, not your home! If anyone is late again next time, work points will be deducted. If the work points you earned are not enough to keep yourself hungry when the work points are calculated at the end of the month, don't blame me.
Our 12th production team is the advanced production team of our Kenqing Farm. If you drag us down, don't blame me for being rude. As for those who are late today, the work tasks are the same, one person per acre of land, and you can leave when you finish.
We have a mission, so let’s get to work now.”
Li Dahu doesn't spoil these educated youth.
There are many educated youths joining their team. They used to treat them as treasures, but now they have become accustomed to their laziness and unsatisfactory behavior. They think they are even worse than the people in their village.
The late educated youth were dumbfounded when they heard this?
Is there still work assignment here?
Let’s take a look at the plots of land divided by Li Dahu into groups of two.
Only then did they realize that they had not gained any advantage at all.
The worst one has already completed one-fifth, but they haven't moved at all.
Now I understand that being lazy won't work.
They all went down to the ground with bitter faces.
This is not fatal.
If I had known earlier, I could have come earlier and finished the work earlier.
