Tong Yiya knew that weeding was a job that earned few work points, and that was a job that villagers would do during the slack season. They all wanted to earn as much as possible.

She smiled and continued: "Isn't this all because of your good teaching, Auntie?"

"Tong Zhiqing, you are really smart. You learned it quickly. Not only did you get the hang of it quickly, but you caught up with me in no time," said Aunt Guihua.

The two chatted for a few words and then continued to work. When they were halfway through, it was already noon. They used backpacks to load the grass they had pulled. Each of them pulled a full basket of grass in the whole morning.

After delivering the grass to the cowshed, the two of them separated and went back to eat.

When Tong Yiya returned to the Youth League compound, the other youth had also returned. Lu Dandan and the others had already cooked the meal. Qin Xue and the others were now using the stove in the kitchen.

Tong Yiya walked to the dining table, took out her lunch box, opened it and found a box of corn rice inside. Today, everyone ate dry rice because they thought it was the first day at work and they needed to eat enough to work better.

After finishing their meal, they went back to the house to rest for a while. When they heard the gong for the afternoon work, they got up and went to the fields.

In the afternoon, Tong Yiya and Aunt Guihua quickly finished the remaining work. They asked the scorer to check, and then each of them recorded five work points, and then they went back together.

After sending the pulled grass to the cowshed, Aunt Guihua said, "Tong Zhiqing, you just arrived here and there is nothing to eat. If you don't mind, come with me to my house and pull some to take back to eat."

There were a lot of vegetables planted in the vegetable garden in her yard, enough for the whole family to eat. She also liked Tong Zhiqing, a little girl, so she suggested that she pick some vegetables to eat.

Tong Yiya certainly wouldn't take other people's vegetables for free, but thinking that they really had no vegetables to eat now, she thought about using money to exchange some back, and then telling those people that she had exchanged them with the villagers, so that it would be cheaper if everyone shared the cost.

She knew that Aunt Guihua would definitely not want to accept the money if she told her directly, so she would just wait until she finished picking the vegetables and give her the money directly.

So she smiled and said, "Auntie, I can eat a lot, so you don't have to worry about me pulling out all the vegetables in your vegetable garden."

"Of course not. My vegetable garden is not small. Just don't worry about pulling them out," said Aunt Osmanthus.

"Okay, let me thank you first, auntie," Tong Yiya replied.

"What are you thanking me for? Auntie just saw that you like it, so you don't have to be polite to me," said Aunt Guihua

Tong Yiya took her arm and the two of them went to Aunt Guihua's house, chatting and laughing.

When they arrived at Aunt Guihua's house, no one was home. Tong Yiya followed her into the yard and asked when she saw that no one was home, "Aunt, aren't your son and daughter-in-law home?"

"As for them, the eldest and second sons are working in the county with their wives, and they have taken their children with them. Our third son joined the army a few years ago and has not been back for several years.

In the village, only my child’s father and I are at home. The children are quite filial and have long let us rest more. When we are free, we will bring the children back to stay for a day or two,” said Aunt Guihua.

Only then did Tong Yiya know that Aunt Guihua had three sons. The first two sons were already married and had children, but they all found jobs in the city and had their own partners. Their families also arranged weddings for them, and they had children in the family in the past two years.

I had wanted to send the child here to be taken care of by the two elders some time ago, but I thought that my third brother has not yet married. If they leave the child at home now, it would not be fair to my third brother who is not yet married.

They also don't want their parents to be too tired. If they and their husband don't work, their three sons will send back money every month to support their retirement. However, they feel bored doing nothing at home, so they insist on going to the fields to earn work points every day.

Her third son went to the army a few years ago. Over the years, the only things that let them know that their child is doing well are the remittance slips that arrive on time every month and the letters that her son sends back from time to time.

The third son's marriage has been delayed because he went to serve in the army. But even though the two elders are anxious, they have never thought of making any decisions for him.

After many sons in the village went to serve in the army, the parents would not see their sons for a long time and would arrange a daughter-in-law for their sons on their own initiative. When the sons came back from the army, they were surprised to find themselves married.

Many people would eventually accept this marriage, but most of the wives married in the village were not registered. The man would stay at home for a few days, then leave his wife to take care of his parents and return to the army.

Tong Yiya also knew why those people did not get a marriage certificate. The man just wanted to find someone to take care of him at home, and the news of his marriage was only known to his family. After returning to the army, he would still be single, so that he could find a wife he liked in the future.

In her modern life, Tong Yiya has read many novels about men who abandon their wives and children as they rise to higher positions. She feels that such women are truly pitiful.

After getting married, you will have a man with whom you have only been together for a few days, and you will have to take care of his parents in the future. If you are lucky and can get pregnant at once, then life will be easier for your husband's family.

If a woman fails to get pregnant, she will have to endure days and nights without her husband, and will also face complaints from her husband's parents, complaining that she is not able to get pregnant and that she cannot keep her man.

After finally getting their in-laws to leave and their husbands getting promoted, they thought their good days were coming. However, most of them only received answers from their husbands that their marriage was only arranged by their parents and that they liked free love.

The two of them didn't even have a marriage certificate. After saying this, the man could leave without any burden, but the woman had to endure the pointing and criticizing of the whole village.

Aunt Guihua and her family never thought of arranging a rural wife for their youngest son, and let their three sons choose their own wives.

Tong Yiya really liked parents like Aunt Guihua and her husband, and the two chatted in the yard for a few minutes.

After saying that, Aunt Guihua went to get the basket. Her sons all worked in the city and had little time to come back, so the two old people could not finish all the vegetables in the family garden.

Tong Yiya followed her to the backyard of their house. Aunt Guihua took Tong Yiya into the vegetable garden and picked some of each vegetable for her. Soon, a basket was filled.

Tong Yiya saw that Aunt Guihua was still preparing to pick other vegetables, so she hurriedly said, "Aunt, these are enough. Any more will be wasted. They won't last long in this weather."

Aunt Guihua looked at the vegetables in the basket and found that they were enough for them to eat for a day or two. Vegetables were not easy to store in this weather, so she nodded and said, "Okay, if you finish eating, come back and pick more."

"Okay, I will definitely come next time, Auntie. I see you grow so many kinds of vegetables and fruits, so I want to ask if you have any seeds at home.
