Jiang Yiyi blushed after being scolded by the captain. She bit her lip and dared not say anything more. Even though she was not good at social etiquette, she knew that she could not talk back. She glared at Xu Qingqing angrily.
Xu Qingqing looked back at her and grinned: "Did you hear that? You should learn from me."
Jiang Yiyi was so angry that she cried again. How could this person be so annoying? Why did she have to be paired with Xu Qingqing?
Xu Qingqing plopped down on the oxcart, ignoring her, and waited for everyone to be seated before the brigade leader drove the oxcart back to the production team.
The road was bumpy and difficult to walk on. Xu Qingqing felt like she couldn't feel her bottom anymore. She wanted to move her bottom, but there was nowhere for her to move.
Bo Jingran was right next to her yesterday, and he knew everything she did. He asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Xu Qingqing shook her head: "It's nothing, my butt is just numb."
"Bear with it, just hold on a little longer."

“My name is Jiang Wei. The boys’ dormitory is on the left and the girls’ dormitory is on the right. If you need anything, just go to the west end of the village and find Li the Cripple.”
In those days, the dormitories for educated youth were all large communal sleeping areas. Xu Qingqing went in and saw that there were still a few empty beds. She went straight to the innermost side against the wall and put her package on it. Thinking that she had seen a bamboo forest on her way here, she got up and went out again.
The bamboo grove was quite large, and it grew on a mountain. I picked out a few suitable bamboo stalks, broke them with one foot, picked them up, and carried them away.
Without the right tools, Xu Qingqing spent a lot of time making the tent, and from the outside, you couldn't see anything inside.
