Song Tanglan didn't quite understand. They were just talking about vanishing cream, so why did they bring up the team leader? What did this have to do with the team leader?
But when I think of the team leader's rough, yellow and black skin, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were already particularly clear when he was in his 40s, and when he frowned angrily, his eyebrows could kill a fly.
Song Tanglan immediately understood why the team leader was suddenly mentioned.
"Taotao, it's not that exaggerated. At most, she's a little whiter than the team leader."
When Su Tao heard this, she looked at her friend's teasing eyes and said, "Okay, you actually tease me."
"Wrong, wrong, we need to leave quickly, or we'll be late."
"Hmph! I'll let you go this time, but if there's a next time, your little face will definitely not be able to escape my vicious clutches."
"Yes, yes, yes." Song Tanglan begged in a low voice.
The two arrived at their destination laughing and chuckling. They didn't know that the captain of the third team, who was directing a few young men to get tools not far away, sneezed violently.
"Captain, the weather has just turned cold and you caught a cold?" Last night she looked at him with an expression that said you are a weakling.
This made the third team leader so angry that he cursed. "You little bastard, why don't you get back to work? Now you have time to tease me."
"No, no, I'll go to work right away."
As soon as the young man left, the third team leader touched his nose and muttered.
"Could it be true as that brat said, that I caught a cold just after the season changed? When did I become so weak?"
…
This time, the field assigned to the third team was a bit far from where they lived, so it would take a little longer to get there, but Song Tanglan and the others arrived relatively early.
Looking at the number of people, at least half of them had not arrived yet, even the team leader they had just been talking about had not come.
The two walked over to Aunt Li, watched her chatting with the other aunts in the team, and went over to listen to their gossip.
But the gossip they talked about before was all about the brigade, but they didn’t expect that this time it would be about the educated youth.
When they listened carefully, they realized that it was Su Chunjiao, the Su educated youth who also married into the brigade.
These aunts were chatting about the gossip about the educated youth and her mother-in-law.
"Did you hear that last night? Old Mrs. Cui was cursing again. Her cursing was really nasty."
"I heard it too. I could hear the young educated youth crying at home. It was so pitiful. Why did she have to marry her grandson when she could marry anyone else?"
"yes!"
"Why else could it be? Because his family is well off, and they can eat meat and fine grains from time to time. The young educated youth has thin arms and legs, and can't work. If she marries into their family, she'll have food and drink, and won't have to work at all. But it's only Chunfeng's son who has poor eyesight and fell for this vixen. She's useless, looks like a fox girl, and all she does is cry."
The aunt who was speaking was called Yang Lianhua. Her family lived next door to the Cui family. Old Mrs. Cui was Chunfeng's mother-in-law, who was now the old lady of the Cui family.
Aunt Yang lives next door and knows more than these aunts, not to mention that she gets along very well with Chunfeng, the mother-in-law of the young educated youth, next door.
As early as when Chunfeng's son was flirting with the young educated youth, she knew that this young educated youth was not a peaceful person. After she got married, she often caused all kinds of trouble. Everyone in the team was laughing at their family, and now it has become everyone's after-dinner gossip.
Seeing that her words were getting more and more unpleasant, Aunt Sun couldn't help but say a good word for the young educated youth.
"That's not the case. That young educated youth is actually quite good."
But what she said made Aunt Yang sneer. If Aunt Sun didn't know that she had no ill intentions, she would have wanted to quarrel with her.
"That's because you don't know the whole story. You also know Chunfeng isn't the type to make things difficult for his daughter-in-law. It's just that the young educated youth went too far. She doesn't have to work, and she doesn't even have sex at home. Just yesterday, when Old Lady Cui came back from visiting her relatives, she saw the pot was empty and the yard wasn't cleaned, so she scolded the young educated youth."
"I didn't expect that young educated youth to start crying before Old Lady Cui could scold her. You know Chunfeng hates people crying the most. It's like a mourner, so she sent her to work early this morning."
When the aunts heard his explanation, they all suddenly understood, and one of them said with disgust.
"So that's how it is. This young educated youth is really a piece of shit. She doesn't even have to work at home, doesn't even prepare dinner, and waits for my mother-in-law to come home and cook. It's only Chunfeng who has a good temper. If I had, I would have picked up the broom and let her learn a lesson."
"that is."
"I even saw Old Lady Cui come to work today."
"When this young educated youth first arrived, she looked restless. She was small, even shorter than the educated youth Xiao Song, but she was like a foxy girl. As soon as she arrived, she seduced the young men in the team to work for her. Now that she's married, she still gets close to the young men in the team from time to time!"
Song Tanglan was originally eating the melon excitedly, but she didn't expect that she would eat the watermelon herself and was stabbed. She immediately felt a little resentful and glanced at her aunt who had just spoken.
She really didn't understand why she had to mention herself. Was she really that short?
Song Tanglan looked at Su Tao standing next to him, who was half a head taller than him, and was suddenly struck by the fact that he was indeed not tall next to this group of northerners.
If I stand behind them, I will easily be blocked. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh.
Su Tao didn't notice her little action, but continued to listen with relish.
But before they could continue the discussion, the team leader came with a bunch of tools for packing cabbage.
After everyone was given something, they began to divide the fields for work.
Their task today was to harvest one acre of cabbage each. Song Tanglan saw the rows of cabbages, each of which was bigger than her head.
She had already felt that this job was not easy before she started, but seeing that the aunts not far away had already started, she did not have time to continue sighing and immediately started to harvest the cabbages.
I don’t know if I can harvest this acre of cabbage in a whole day.
Su Tao did not notice that her friend looked hopeless, but excitedly pulled out the third cabbage and picked off the rotten and decayed leaves. The old leaves could be used as food for cows and pigs, and the rotten ones were thrown into the field as fertilizer.
Su Tao's speed was no slower than that of the other aunts. When she pulled out the fourth one, Song Tanglan slowly pulled out the first one.
It took her a lot of effort to clean the cabbage, remove the unwanted parts, and get a fresh cabbage.
Song Tanglan didn't have much strength, and after pulling out several cabbages, she felt some discomfort in her hands. Although she was wearing gloves, the coldness of the cabbages still passed through the gloves to her hands.
She just kept working and had a thin layer of sweat on her body, so she didn't feel cold.
