Lu Xia was surprised. Could this one go so deep?
Then I exerted more strength and finally pried out the entire root.
Lu Xia took a look and saw that the roots were distributed in an umbrella shape. They were indeed grasped very tightly and deeply. No wonder the others looked solemn. This was indeed a strenuous job!
Even someone as strong as Lu Xia found it difficult, let alone other female educated youth.
Lu Xia looked around and saw that everyone was having a hard time digging.
Looking at the male educated youth, the situation is better, but it cannot be compared with that of the villagers.
Lu Xia looked at Jiang Junmo and found that he was doing okay. Although he didn't know how to exert force at the beginning, he quickly mastered it and kept up with the progress of the others.
This made her feel relieved.
She started to plan again. After trying a few times, she gradually mastered the strength and method. Planing became much smoother and she was even faster than other experienced female educated youth.
But she still controlled her speed and kept it the same as everyone else.
...
...
But despite this, Lu Xia still felt pain in his shoulders when he got off work.
After working the hoe for the whole morning, I still feel a little tired.
Jiang Junmo cooked lunch at noon. He was afraid that she was too tired and wanted her to rest for a while. In fact, Lu Xia felt that it was okay. It was just that she hadn't worked for too long. She would feel tired if she did so much suddenly. She would be fine once she got used to it.
But seeing that Jiang Junmo was willing to take care of her, she felt happy.
The two of them had lunch, lay down to rest for a while, and then went downstairs to continue working.
Maybe it was the first day of work after the New Year, everyone was tired, especially in the afternoon, many people were unable to work. The village chief seemed to have anticipated this, and seeing that the time was almost up, he left work early.
Jiang Junmo and Lu Xia each received seven work points that day, which was already a lot. She thought that since they were both working now, if they continued like this, the work points they earned might be enough for a year's food and expenses.
After work, several female educated youth came to her enthusiastically to go digging wild vegetables together.
Lu Xia was a little surprised to see that everyone seemed to have forgotten their tiredness from working, but she still cheered herself up and followed them because she also wanted to eat some fresh food.
Jiang Junmo was a little worried when he saw this, "Why don't you go tomorrow? Have a good rest today. We still have cabbage at home."
Lu Xia shook his head. "I heard that many people in the village went to pick wild vegetables today. I guess there won't be any left if we go there tomorrow."
Jiang Junmo couldn't persuade him, so he could only say, "Then just pick a little less, we can't eat much."
"knew."
Lu Xia followed the female educated youth to the field. He was a little surprised, thinking they were going to the mountains.
Seeing this, Sun Shengnan explained: "It has just thawed, and the wild vegetables in the mountains haven't grown yet, but the ground vegetables should be growing now, including Popo Ding, Shepherd's Purse, and yes, Artemisia selengensis, but it tastes a bit strange, a bit like Patchouli, you can pick some if you like it."
Lu Xia nodded and said, "Is there any in the field? Why didn't I see any today?"
"That's because you didn't notice. Many of them are the same color as the soil in the field and look like weeds. I saw many people in the village secretly picking a lot while working today. But we must not let the team leader find out, otherwise it will affect our work points."
Lu Xia said she understood.
After arriving at the field, Lu Xia followed Sun Shengnan, mainly because she didn't know the place and needed to get familiar with it first.
Soon Sun Shengnan saw some wild shepherd's purse. "Look, this is it. It's good to eat it cold or stir-fried."
