Chapter 18 Starting Work 3 (2/2)



After saying that, he turned around and left with his teammates. In less than two minutes, the military green figure had left completely, and the ground was swept clean without a trace, not even a bloodstain.

[Host, you're being suspected...]

"Shut up, I'm not blind!"

The man made no attempt to hide his suspicion of her, practically scrutinizing her from every angle with a magnifying glass. If it weren't for her strong willpower, an ordinary person would have been terrified.

Li Fanghua, who was the first to get up at the educated youth settlement, saw Gu Zuozuo returning from outside as soon as she opened the door. He was covered in sweat and slightly out of breath.

"What are you doing...?"

"Good morning! I just got back from my workout."

Li Fanghua looked at her fair skin with envy, and also envied her good energy and spirit, and how she even had time to get up early to exercise.

After saying hello, Gu Zuozuo returned to the small room where the three of them were. Meng Tian and Qi Meng were still fast asleep, oblivious to the time.

I took out six milk fruits, took one and took a bite. The first thing that filled my taste buds was the sweet fruity aroma, and after chewing, there was a rich milky aroma. The peel was very crisp, but the flesh inside was soft. With just a gentle suck, the milky aroma turned into water and slid directly down my throat.

"It smells so good..."

A slightly hoarse voice, still drowsy, came from behind them. The two, who had been fast asleep, groggily got up and started shaking their heads from side to side, sniffing around as they followed the scent of milk.

Gu Zuozuo smiled and placed the milk fruit she had bitten open under their noses. She couldn't help but laugh as she watched them shake their heads back and forth in response to her movements even before they opened their eyes.

"Get up!"

Meng Tian and her sister opened their eyes, and in their blurry vision, they saw their sisters' fair and tender faces. They sighed and wanted to lie down and continue sleeping.

Just as they closed their eyes, a drop of rich, milky flavor was dripped into their mouths. With a whoosh, the two of them quickly sat up and watched Gu Zuozuo leisurely munching on fruit. The aroma they smelled made their mouths water.

"What kind of fruit is this? It's so delicious! It smells so good!"

Little foodie Qi Meng had already crawled over and was almost drooling over the fruit in Gu Zuozuo's hand.

Gu Zuozuo waved the other five fruits in her hand, her smiling eyes curving into crescents, her curled eyelashes fluttering, revealing a hint of mischievousness.

"If you two don't get up, I'm going to eat all of this left."

Before the words were even finished, the two people who had been lazing in bed were no longer visible on the kang (a heated brick bed).

Gu Zuozuo chuckled and shook her head, dividing the fruit into two portions and placing them next to their respective pillows.

This fruit is something that the sub-beastmen in the Beast World prepare for their cubs to eat. It has a good effect on strengthening the body and will be helpful for the two of them who are about to enter the busy farming season.

After the meal, the three of them followed the old educated youth to the threshing ground to meet up.

"Is this a new educated youth? What can someone so weak and frail do?"

"Sister Yang, do you think someone from the city would have a waist as wide as yours?"

"Exactly! If your door were any narrower, you probably wouldn't even be able to get in!"

The woman called Sister Yang rolled her eyes at the woman who never forgot to tease her, ignoring the laughter of the women around her, and stared at the five newly arrived educated youths, scrutinizing them.

"Comrade, do you have a girlfriend yet?"

He looked left and right, then pointed to himself.

"Is my aunt asking me?"

Aunt Yang nodded. "She's standing right in front of you, so of course it's you."

Gu Zuozuo was both amused and exasperated. She had only been here for two days, and someone was already trying to introduce her to a potential partner?

"Auntie, I'm still young, and my family won't let me find someone."

Li Fanghua, standing to the side, stood in front of Gu Zuozuo without changing her expression, and spoke politely to Aunt Yang, whose face was full of fierceness.

“Auntie, Zuo Zuo is not an adult yet. Besides, she is here to receive re-education in the countryside and help with rural development. She will not get married here.”

Aunt Yang gave a couple of awkward chuckles, muttered something, and turned to leave. However, she would occasionally glance back at the group, clearly indicating that she hadn't yet let go of some of her thoughts.

"Zuo Zuo, the three of you should remember to go out in groups from now on. Don't go alone. Not everyone here is a good person. There are a lot of scoundrels and old bachelors. Their methods are disgusting. Don't let them find an opportunity."

The three of them looked puzzled and sighed.

"That auntie had four sons. Two of them married educated youth. One was rescued from drowning, and the other was rescued from going out in the dark. In the end, whether they wanted to or not, they married the people who saved them."

The reason why none of the female educated youth wanted to marry into the village was because of the two female educated youth who were already married. Their current lives made the female educated youth shudder. They would rather work themselves to death in the fields than get married here.
