Aunt A asked: "Well, let me take a look and see if it looks good. I have a nephew in my mother's family who is not married yet."
Auntie C pointed in the direction of Tong Yiya and said, "That girl over there, the one holding something in her hand."
Auntie A looked over and saw Tong Yiya's thin body. She looked very young and unhealthy. She said with some disdain, "That one, she's not as pretty as Chun Ya from our village, and her butt isn't big either. It's not good enough."
"Oh, Aunt Chunhua, you've picked one. But let me tell you, I saw a few other people yesterday. They were really handsome men and beautiful women. I don't have any relatives of the right age, otherwise I would have wanted them to try." A younger female voice said
"Hahaha, that's right. There is a girl in my mother's family who is of marriageable age. I don't know if she is married yet. I was thinking about going back to ask her sometime." Someone else took over the conversation.
"You'd better forget about it. The educated youth all came from the city. How could they like rural children? People will have to return to the city in the end. Aren't you afraid that your children will be abandoned and you won't even have anywhere to look for them?" said an old lady who was relatively clear-headed.
"So what? Even if he is from the city, he still came to our place to work in the countryside. But what you said later is also right. I will take a closer look. If he is a good worker and has good character, I will try to introduce him to me," said the aunt just now.
At this moment, the team leader, the village chief, and the accountant arrived. Lu Dandan and the others also caught up at the last minute, and Tong Yiya also walked over and stood with them.
For a moment, the eyes of the villagers were all focused on the educated youth. Tong Yiya could vaguely hear some aunties starting to discuss which of them had a big butt to give birth to a baby, or who was handsome and could match whose daughter.
Tong Yiya didn't hear anyone talking about herself. She looked down at her small chest which was just beginning to develop. At this moment, it was still flat and nothing could be seen.
She missed her figure in her previous life very much. Although it was not perfect, it was not as flat as it is now.
She has been nourishing herself well in the past few years, but it has only manifested in her height growth. Her breasts have only started to show some signs of growth this year, but after wearing the small clothes of this era, you can't tell anything.
She thought about it and secretly set a small goal in her heart, to work harder in this aspect in the future and return to the figure she had in her previous life as soon as possible.
The team leader stood in front and looked at the chattering crowd. He coughed and said, "Okay, everyone, be quiet. Yesterday, everyone knew that educated youth came to our village. Today, let them introduce themselves here so that everyone can get to know each other. In the future, everyone can help in any way they can. I hope everyone can get along well with the educated youth."
"Okay, Gan Zhiqing, please come up and introduce yourselves," the captain said to the Zhiqing.
The next eight people went up and each introduced themselves, and the villagers below all gave them a round of welcoming applause.
After everyone got to know each other, the team leader began to divide the work. It was almost as Tong Yiya expected. Today everyone had to go to the fields to weed the corn fields.
The team leader assigned an aunt to each educated youth to study with them for a day. Tong Yiya followed an aunt who was about 30 years old.
After the work was divided, the aunts took the educated youth they were going to teach to the assigned land.
The grass they cut from the fields now needs to be collected and fed to the cows, so each person is equipped with a backpack.
Tong Yiya followed her aunt towards the land allocated to her. Halfway through the journey, her aunt walked a little slower.
After the two of them came together, the aunt asked, "Tong Zhiqing, can you tell me about your life in the city?"
"Auntie, how should I call you?" Tong Yiya asked with a smile.
"Hey, everyone calls me Aunt Guihua. My husband is Deng Laowu, and we live in the east end of the village. If you don't mind, you can call me that, too," said Aunt Guihua.
"Okay, Aunt Guihua, our life in the city is actually similar to that in the village. We eat on a monthly salary every day. There are many families who have to support a whole family with just one salary," said Tong Yiya.
Aunt Guihua listened to Tong Yiya talk about life in the city. Although it was very hard, many people still wanted to find ways to move into the city.
In those days, if a family had a formal worker in the city, it would be considered a prestigious place in the surrounding villages. Even now, if the other party has a worker in the family, it is very popular in marriage.
"People in the city have food supplies, but farmers like us in the village work very hard every day and rely on these few work points to get food. If there are many people in the family, it is difficult to even have enough water to eat every day," Aunt Guihua sighed.
"The city has its advantages, and the countryside has its advantages. At least as long as we are willing to work, we will definitely get a lot of work points. There are limited work places in the city. If you don't bring your family to work in the city, you have to save food every month to make it until you get your salary.
In our village, as long as you are willing to work, you can get more food, and having enough to eat every meal is not a problem," said Tong Yiya.
In fact, she feels that in this era, it is better to live in the village than in the city.
Generally speaking, if you are a single person, one month's salary in the city can really allow you to live well, but in this era, parents at home are reluctant to split up, so every household has a large family. If there are few workers in the family and the whole family goes to the city, then you really don't know where your next meal will come from.
For example, in the village, if a family can grow a vegetable garden, as long as they work hard every day and earn work points, then the food they get each time will be enough to feed everyone in the family.
As they chatted, they walked into the cornfield. The corns were now as tall as a man, and some of them already had small corns on their backs. However, because the fields had never been sprayed with pesticides, the grass in the fields would grow if not cleared after a period of time, absorbing the nutrients from the corn, and the corn yield would be reduced. Therefore, the villagers would pull out the weeds from time to time.
If we pull out these grasses, it won't be wasted and can be used to feed the village cows.
Aunt Guihua put down her backpack, and Tong Yiya also put down her backpack, and the two of them entered the cornfield. She first watched Aunt Guihua pull out a piece of corn, and then taught her to recognize some grasses that cows would not eat, and how to use skill to pull out the weeds in one piece.
Tong Yiya learned how to do it after a while. Then she went to another corn row, squatted down, put on the hat she brought with her, put on gloves, and started pulling the corns.
She was a little uneasy at first, but soon she picked up speed and soon caught up with Aunt Guihua.
Seeing the little girl catching up, Aunt Guihua smiled and praised: "Tong Zhiqing is really an expert at pulling out weeds. At your speed today, you will definitely get five work points."
