The next day, when Su Qingmeng was woken up by the work whistle, she refused.
But she had just arrived and wanted to leave a good impression on the team, so she couldn't be lazy for no reason, so she insisted on getting up.
I made an omelet in the morning and smuggled a bowl of soy milk from space.
Tian Ke and Gao Xiaohuan took leave to go to the commune today. So she was replaced by someone else, who turned out to be the male protagonist Gu Shuyuan.
It turns out the hero is also from Team 5, but I didn't notice him yesterday. Since the hero is here, the heroine must be nearby. Su Qingmeng looked around, and sure enough, Lin Xiaoyuan was on the other side of the hero.
Su Qingmeng had a feeling that today would not be very peaceful, and sure enough, after a while the heroine went over to talk to the hero.
Lin Xiaoyuan: "Brother Gu, this is the summer tea I made this morning. Please have some."
"Thank you, Comrade Lin Xiaoyuan, but it's not necessary. No reward without merit. You can give the tea to your family." Gu Shuyuan politely declined.
Lin Xiaoyuan said shyly: "They all have it, Brother Gu, this is specially left for you, you saved me..."
The heroine "Sister Xiaoyuan" was interrupted before she could finish her words. It turned out that Yang Ping saw the hero and heroine talking and hurried over.
She said to Lin Xiaoyuan, "I feel a little dizzy. I heard that this is a summer tea, so I came over to ask for a cup. Is that okay?"
Lin Xiaoyuan hesitated and agreed. At that time, the relationship between the heroine and the supporting actress was quite good, and Yang Ping always had the image of a caring older sister.
The three of them talked for a while, during which Yang Ping kept talking to Lin Xiaoyuan, preventing her from communicating with Gu Shuyuan. It was not until the team leader came over that the three of them dispersed.
Su Qingmeng had been watching silently. She had been pulling weeds much faster this morning. She had a lot of strength now. But her legs were sore from squatting all the time.
Su Qingmeng felt that if she gave it her all, she would be about the same speed as the woman on the right. But she didn't want to stand out, so she just worked for a while and fished for a while.
I felt much better after work today. At lunch, I took out two steamed buns and a portion of mutton with pickled mustard greens from my space.
After dinner, Su Qingmeng went to the village clinic. The heroine had mentioned summer tea that morning, and she remembered that there was a skilled barefoot doctor in Songjiang Brigade. The book said his medicine was quite effective. Her waist ached a little, so she decided to buy some plasters.
The clinic was two brick houses. There was no one in the yard and the door was open, so she went in.
In the outer room were two large shelves filled with herbs. Su Qingmeng called out, "Is anyone there?"
There was a sound coming from the inner room. When she was about to lift the curtain to go into the room, someone walked out and her hand accidentally hit the person opposite.
"Be careful," said a deep and magnetic voice of a boy, the handsome scorer.
Su Qingmeng apologized, "I'm sorry." The man smiled, "It's okay." His smile had a bit of a scoundrel quality to it.
This person's appearance was exactly in line with her aesthetic taste. Qing Meng lowered her eyes and made way.
The doctor smiled and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Su Qingmeng said her back ached and she wanted to buy some plasters. "Three cents a piece. How many do you want?" the old doctor said with a kind smile. Su Qingmeng ordered six plasters, paid, and left.
When I went out, I found that the scorer had not left yet and was standing against the wall.
When he saw her come out, he stood up and walked over. "Hello, Su Zhiqing, my name is Lin Xiuyao. I'm from Shuangmu Lin, Xiu means cultivated, and Yao means Yao, Shunyu. I'm 19 years old and graduated from high school. Nice to meet you."
Su Qingmeng was a little confused, and subconsciously introduced herself, "My name is Su Qingmeng, I'm 18 years old, I also graduated from high school, and I'm from Suzhou."
Lin Xiuyao: "I know your name. It's 'In my dreams, I don't know the mountains are under the water, the whole boat is filled with clear dreams that overwhelm the stars.' Right?"
This is exactly the origin of the name Su Qingmeng's father gave her. She thought this handsome guy was quite cultured.
The two of them walked together to the educated youth center. Lin Xiuyao accompanied Su Qingmeng all the way to the door. Su Qingmeng didn't think much of it, mainly because people in the seventies were quite enthusiastic.
After finishing work in the afternoon, Su Qingmeng and Zhou Wenxi went to wash clothes together. Working in the fields easily makes clothes dirty, so they had to wash yesterday's clothes as well as today's.
The river flows through the middle of the village from north to south, with a small reed marsh downstream. Across the river is a wooden bridge more than two meters wide.
There were a few aunts washing clothes by the river, so Zhou Wenxi took her to a place farther away.
Zhou Wenxi reminded, "Next time you come to wash clothes, try not to get too close to them. Some of the aunties in the village like to take advantage of you and will ask you for soap." Su Qingmeng nodded.
The two chatted while washing clothes. Su Qingmeng asked if there was any easier work in the village.
Zhou Wenxi said that such jobs are usually selected among villagers, and it is not the turn of educated youth, unless they marry someone in the village.
Songjiang Brigade was considered relatively wealthy, with an apple orchard in the village, so work points were quite valuable.
Although the work was very tiring for the educated youth, they would not go hungry if they did not slack off, and sometimes they could save more than ten yuan a year.
Su Qingmeng sighed. She wanted to find a job that didn’t require her to be exposed to the sun, otherwise she would get tanned quickly.
On the way back from doing laundry, I ran into Lin Xiuyao. He was carrying a small fish, his clothes sticking to his body from being wet, and his smooth muscle lines were clearly visible. I didn't expect that Lin Xiuyao looked thin, but he still had muscles.
Lin Xiuyao nodded at her but didn't come closer, and walked in another direction.
When they returned to the educated youth site, the water tank was empty. Su Qingmeng went to fetch water. There was someone by the well. It was Guo Wei.
"Su Zhiqing, how is work? Are you tired? Can you adapt?" Guo Wei asked with concern.
Su Qingmeng replied indifferently, "It's okay."
Guo Wei was not discouraged and said, "Let me help you fight. I'm a gay man and I'm strong."
"No need." Su Qingmeng refused. She thought to herself, it's not certain who is stronger.
Guo Wei is a sea king. In the original book, he hooked up with several girls, and she didn't want to be a fish in his sea.
Guo Wei sensed Su Qingmeng's indifference. Thinking there was still a long way to go, he decided not to rush things, so he grabbed the water and left.
Su Qingmeng filled a bucket with water and lifted it up easily. It’s good to have strong strength.
In the evening, she made a simple dumpling soup and hid in the house to have a snack for herself. She had a plate of chicken and tofu and a plate of egg fried rice.
When Su Qingmeng came out to wash the dishes, she saw Mi Lai Di watering her private plot of land. She had many vegetables planted there, the most and best quality of any vegetable grown in the entire educated youth settlement.
Her figure was thin and slender, and she looked like she would faint at any moment. The original book described her as a "brother-supporting demon" who would send most of her income and grain back home after the annual grain distribution.
Later, in order to raise the dowry for her younger brother, she married a divorced man and did not live a happy life after marriage.
Miledi is a microcosm of many girls of this era. They were raised in patriarchal families and brainwashed into paying for their brothers.
It is difficult for them to break away from the influence of their original family. After getting married, they still think about their parents' home and generally live an unhappy life.
As an only child born in the 1990s, Su Qingmeng finds it difficult to understand such an idea.
