But who knew that the next second, Su Nan spoke and broke his fantasy.
"Comrade, could you please make way? I want to go over there. Thank you."
The girl's voice was as beautiful as spring water, touching the heart, but it made Li Junyang feel embarrassed and ashamed.
"Oh oh oh, okay." Li Junyang turned sideways in a daze to make way, knowing that he had misunderstood. Fortunately, he did not say anything to embarrass himself.
So she wasn't here to see me? Then who was she here to see?
He sighed, his eyes involuntarily following Su Nan's movements. He saw her jump in two steps to a man and smile sweetly.
Not knowing what the two of them said, Li Junyang watched helplessly as the flower-like person reached out her hand, grabbed the hem of the tall man's clothes and shook it, and pouted her rosy little mouth as if she was acting coquettishly.
When did Su Zhiqing become so close to Zhou Zhiqing?
"Do you agree or not?" Su Nan looked into Zhou Rang's eyes, pulling at his clothes with her little hands and refusing to let go.
Zhou Rang looked around and saw that many people were looking at him, so he could only nod in agreement.
Seeing that he agreed, Su Nan loosened his hand, and his eyes immediately became bright. That's great. Zhou Rang looks very strong. I guess it will be easy for him to do farm work. He should be able to slack off later.
She doesn't know how to do any farm work. She can't even tell the difference between crops and weeds. It would be better to kill her than to let her do all the heavy farm work alone.
When Zhou Rang lowered his head, he saw her excited eyes and smiled dotingly.
After a while, a villager came to claim them. It was an old man named Huang. He was not very tall, but he looked energetic and seemed like a good worker.
"Let's go. We need to weed the fields. It's a little far from here. We have to hurry or we won't be back in time for lunch."
Old man Huang glanced at Su Nan, who looked very delicate, and his mouth corners turned down, his expression suddenly became ugly, he was not very satisfied with this assignment.
These female educated youth from the city are more afraid of hard work and fatigue than each other. The one in front of me is even worse. She is so weak that it is hard for her to even hold a sickle. I guess I will have to help this girl with the work later. It is really bad luck.
Turning his gaze to Zhou Rang, Old Man Huang's expression relaxed again.
Wow, he is so tall. Which young man must he be? He is so well-fed and strong.
Su Nan took it all in, silently pinched her wrist, and compared it with Zhou Rang's wrist. Ahem, she should just be a little waste.
Summer is the busy farming season. Old Man Huang took the two of them through the fields, passing by many villagers and educated youth who had already started their busy work.
The dirt roads between the ridges of the fields were full of potholes, and there were lush weeds growing on both sides. If you were not careful, the long leaves blown by the wind would hit your face and hands, and your delicate skin would be cut and left with small cuts, which would make you grimace in pain.
Su Nan was very glad that she had cleverly worn long sleeves and a straw hat, otherwise if she had really been cut, she would have had to use lipstick to cover up the wound.
The sun was shining brightly, the scorching sunlight shone strongly on the earth, and the cicadas were singing happily at the top of their lungs.
After a while, his back was soaked with sweat. Su Nan leaned forward to look. The long ridge seemed to have no end. No wonder the villager said it was "a bit far".
"Do you want to take a break?" Zhou Rang followed behind Su Nan, and seeing that her steps were weak as if she could not walk anymore, he frowned and asked worriedly.
"It's okay, give me the kettle, I want to drink some water." Su Nan panted heavily, put his hands on his waist, stopped, stretched out his hand to Zhou Rang, and asked her to ask him to help hold the military kettle.
Seeing that her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, Zhou Rang felt a little worried. He first unscrewed the kettle and handed it to her, then stood in front of her to help her block most of the sunlight.
Su Nan held the kettle and took two big gulps of the spring water. After a while, he felt some strength restored.
He wiped his lips, thought for a moment, and pretended to be very natural as he handed the kettle to Zhou Rang. His eyes were vague: "If you don't mind that I drank it, you should drink some water too. I see that you didn't bring any water with you."
Zhou Rang, who was about to cover the kettle, paused and looked at Su Nan, who was kicking the mud on the ground with his toes with his hands behind his back.
"What are you two doing? Hurry up and catch up." The powerful voice of Old Man Huang sounded in the front, and before they knew it, he had left the two of them a long distance behind.
"What are you standing there for? Drink quickly, I don't want to be scolded again." Su Nan glared at the hesitant Zhou Rang, walked past him and cursed, "I just dislike you, huh, I don't dislike you yet, why are you being so picky?"
"I didn't." Zhou Rang denied hurriedly, and while keeping up with her pace, he took several sips of water.
I don't know if it was his illusion, but after drinking the water, Zhou Rang actually felt that his body was filled with endless energy.
When he thought that this was her kettle and the water she had drunk, he felt his face burning.
Seeing Zhou Rang finally drank it, Su Nan raised his eyebrows slightly, couldn't help but covered his mouth and laughed twice, and his steps became lighter.
Drink more. When you are full, you will have more energy to help her with the work.
After walking for about ten more minutes, we finally reached our destination.
This place is close to a barren mountain and the surroundings are quiet. There is no one else here except the three of them.
The paddy fields are green, some are half a person's height, while others have only just sprouted some green buds.
Su Nan stood at the edge of the field and curled his lips. It wouldn't take just three of them to remove all the weeds in this large area, right?
How many days will this take?
Old man Huang rolled up his trouser legs, pulled out a sickle from his backpack, and went into the water with numb hands and feet.
"Just watch, both of you. I'll show you how to do it." After saying that, he held a handful of weeds that he had just pulled out of the ground.
"This is called ox-leaved felt. Some of the roots are shallow, so you can just pull them out with your hands. If the roots are deep, you need to cut them with a knife."
"By the way, you guys should be careful not to cut your hands when you use the knife. We don't have any medicine to apply to you. You have to go to the commune to see a doctor. It's so troublesome."
Although Old Man Huang was thin, his arms were very strong. He moved quickly as he bent over and weeded. In a blink of an eye, he had cleared all the weeds in the small patch of land in front of him, leaving only sparse green seedlings swaying in the hot wind.
"You, a girl, don't look like you can use a knife. It would be terrible if you get cut. Just follow us and pick up the weeds. When we're done cutting, you can carry them to the edge of the field." Old Man Huang narrowed his eyes and gave an order.
"Okay." Su Nan knew that people were kind enough to reduce her workload, so she couldn't help but smile with gratitude.
Seeing Zhou Rang also went into the water with a knife, she couldn't just stand there on the shore and watch the show, right? She immediately took off her shoes with great enthusiasm and wanted to go into the water to help.
Who would have thought that as soon as I stepped barefoot onto the water's edge and before I even got in, I was stunned when I looked down.
"Ah, what is this?"
