Chapter 48



As for the third child, she had already made up her mind.

The third child is 21 years old this year. He was delayed for a few years because of high school, and many of his peers in the village got married earlier than him.

I wanted to find him a good one, so I put it off until now.

During this time, the third brother asked him for money every day to go to the county town, saying that he was dating a female classmate he knew before, and they were getting along very well, so he thought there would be good news soon.

Having learned her lesson from her previous nonsense talk, she was afraid of bragging again this time, fearing that she would lose both her husband and her army in the end.

Everyone complimented Liu Guifang.

The women started a new topic, chattering away, as if they were never going to finish what they were saying.

The showroom was soon filled with people.

Divided into small groups, the educated youth stood together, and the members stood together.

Gu Qinghuan glanced attentively and saw Lin Xiaomeng, who also stood out in the group.

She is the same as herself. Although she is an educated youth, she is now completely an educated youth. If she stands on one side, no one will care about her.

The two of them are considered two oddities in Xujiatun.

Looking closely, the fortune progress bar behind Lin Xiaomeng was still at 30%, it seemed that she had not yet had time to take action against Qian Caihua.

She couldn't think of any good solution now, so she could only take it one step at a time.

The team leader came in time to arrange today's production tasks.

The task of all the educated youth today is to dig sweet potatoes, except for Gu Qinghuan and Lin Xiaomeng.

Because they were sisters-in-law and lived close to each other, they were unfortunately assigned to the same group. Both of them glanced at each other with some disdain and did not speak.

Because the educated youth were efficient at their work and digging sweet potatoes required experience and judgment, the team leader planned to assign an experienced veteran to each group.

Lin Xiaomeng prayed silently in her heart: Money Cauliflower, Money Cauliflower, please pass the money to me.

She had been trying to find a way to take action against Qian Caihua these past few days, but rushing up to offer her a drink of water without any reason would be too deliberate and could easily lead to problems.

So I kept putting it off until now.

The team leader was assigned to them and originally wanted to assign Liu Guifang to their group. The three of them were mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and Liu Guifang could just teach them.

As a result, when he was reading the name, he didn't know why, but he suddenly slipped up and read Qian Caihua instead.

The words have been spoken, there is no reason to take them back, so just spend the money.

Lin Xiaomeng got what she wanted.

With her current luck, she could only influence small results, such as getting Qian Caihua to join their group, or accidentally picking up rabbits and pheasants in the mountains, or picking up wild duck eggs while washing clothes by the river.

The last time I got wild ginseng was just a coincidence.

When Gu Qinghuan saw that Qian Caihua was assigned to the same group as them, she immediately realized that Lin Xiaomeng was preparing to take action.

Everyone rushed forward, got the farm tools from the farm tool keeper, and walked slowly to their assigned fields.

Qian Caihua secretly thought that she was unlucky to be assigned to the same group with these two today. She must have earned a lot of work points.

She carried the hoe on her shoulder and walked ahead with a gloomy face.

Gu Qinghuan and Lin Xiaomeng carried the two backpacks and followed them all the way to the sweet potato field allocated to the three of them.

"These three ploughs of sweet potato fields are our task for today. Now that we're done, everyone has earned full work points. Now that we're done, just wait!

I say, you two, you have to work hard today and don’t hold me back!” Qian Caihua shouted.

Lin Xiaomeng walked over with a smile on her face: "Auntie Caihua, don't worry, I will definitely work hard. You are an old hand at work, so you still have a lot to teach me!"

Gu Qinghuan shuddered and felt cold all over when he saw this.

You know, I thought she liked Qian Caihua so much. She was clearly planning to take away the fortune of your family, but she still looked harmless. She was more vicious than Pan Jinlian.

The most vicious woman's heart is like this.

Qian Caihua's expression eased a little when she saw that Lin Xiaomeng was so understanding and pleasing to the ear.

Seeing that Gu Qinghuan was still standing on the edge of the field, he shouted at her, "Huai'an, what are you thinking about! Come down and work quickly. Why do you want me to invite you?"

Gu Qinghuan came to his senses and hurried to work in the fields.

The three people were assigned to dig the sweet potatoes, while Gu Qinghuan and Lin Xiaomeng were responsible for cleaning the sweet potatoes from the soil, putting them in a backpack and carrying them to the scorer to hand in their work.

It seems fair, but what Gu Qinghuan and Lin Xiaomeng do are all revitalizing activities.

But asking them both to dig sweet potatoes with hoes is absolutely impossible.

Only experienced hands can judge the growth of sweet potatoes on the ground based on their experience. If you dig blindly, you will only harvest a bunch of half-ripened sweet potatoes, and then you will have failed.

Basically all the educated youth were assigned in this way.

After assigning the tasks, we started to work.

Gu Qinghuan and Lin Xiaomeng simultaneously took out a pair of work gloves from their pockets and put them on.

Hands are a woman's second face and they can't be dirty.

Seeing this, Qian Caihua muttered, "What's the matter with your hands being made of gold? Why bother? Such good cotton gloves have become dirty after being buried in the muddy fields. It would be better to tear them apart and weave a sweater to wear. It would be warm."

Gu Qinghuan looked at the gloves over and over again and asked: "How do I weave a sweater with these gloves?"

Lin Xiaomeng looked at her curiously.

"Don't look at me now because I'm old and ugly. When I was young, I loved to be coquettish.

When I was a girl, I loved knitting. But supplies were scarce at the time and I didn’t have enough money to buy crochet needles, so I added the crochet needle head and the toothbrush handle I had bought to make a crochet needle.

I had no money to buy wool, so I gathered up white cotton work gloves, untied the yarn, made balls of yarn, and knitted sweaters.

Wearing a white sweater is auspicious. I learned how to dye the sweater with pomegranate peel.

Dry the pomegranate peel, break it into small pieces, put it in water and boil it, then wet the sweater and put it in the water to dye it while boiling.

Finally I got a Qiuxiang yellow sweater.

That year I wore this Qiuxiang yellow sweater to a blind date, and Lao Xu fell in love with me at first sight."

Qian Caihua was immersed in the beautiful memories of the past, and the air seemed to become gentle and romantic.

Whether we are ten or seventy, everyone has been a teenager.

Time may smooth out the edges, but it takes away the beautiful moments.
