"Brother Chen Gang, Su Tian doesn't like you anymore. Ever since you two got together, my heart has been constantly thinking about you. Now, can we be together openly?"
Chen Gang felt quite pleased with himself for being flattered by He Hua. But the thought of Su Tian being so ungrateful made him very angry.
He still wanted to win Su Tian back, and considering Su Tian's family background, he didn't want to make it public at all.
“He Hua, we’ve only been in the countryside for a little over a month. Let’s not think about feelings for now. Let’s focus on how to earn more work points to support ourselves.”
Hearing this, He Hua felt a pang of sadness: You're still thinking about that bitch. I've told you so many times, but you still won't go public with our relationship.
However, having lived an extra life, she knew that she and Chen Gang had nothing now, not even enough to eat, and they didn't know how they would survive when they ran out of food.
Without Su Tian's subsidies, life is so hard! Looks like I need to find a new nemesis.
However, she didn't say this out loud; she was still thinking of finding someone to harm Su Tian.
In this way, Su Tian will no longer exist in Chen Gang's heart, and he can belong to himself alone.
"Oh, Su, the educated youth, you're here to work," Aunt Song said with a smile.
As soon as Su Tian arrived at the work site, Aunt Song greeted her with exceptional enthusiasm. After all, they shared a revolutionary bond—the bond of harvesting rice—from fighting side by side.
Su Tian felt that his enthusiasm radiated a captivating aura.
"Hey, Su Zhiqing, you're really good at wielding that hoe! With one stroke, you've turned up all the sweet potatoes."
Su Tian is very strong. She didn't even need to use her full strength to fight zombies, and digging up sweet potatoes was a piece of cake for her.
The other women in the village, those with less strength, were responsible for cutting sweet potato vines and picking sweet potatoes with sickles, while those with more strength were responsible for digging sweet potatoes. Each person earned ten work points.
In the educated youth settlement, apart from the male educated youth digging sweet potatoes, the remaining female educated youth were all picking sweet potatoes, earning six work points.
"Su, you dug up sweet potatoes without breaking them. The pits were deep enough, and you dug so fast. You're really a hidden talent. Look at how hard you work. No man in the village can compare to you. I admire you the most."
“That’s right, I don’t think anyone in Sanhe Commune can match Su Zhiqing’s strength,” Aunt Ma chimed in.
Despite being praised all the way, Su Tian remained humble, digging sweet potatoes with a hoe while loudly responding to the aunties from the surrounding plots:
"Aunties, I'm nowhere near as good as you. You are all the best workers in the village. I'm learning from you and contributing to the village."
After she finished speaking, Su Tian felt that everyone was more friendly towards her. After all, people who are diligent, humble, strong, and good at talking are the most likable.
Moreover, Su Tian is beautiful and has a sweet smile that unconsciously infects those around her.
Su Tian was full of energy when digging sweet potatoes. After two or three hours, the entire acre of sweet potatoes was dug up. She asked the scorekeeper, Song Xiaohua, to calculate her work points, and then she carried her hoe to return them.
Zou Daying is the youngest daughter of the accountant of Sanhe Brigade. She has just graduated from high school and she likes boys who have a scholarly air about them.
On Chen Gang's first day in the countryside, Zou Daying was immediately drawn to him after just one glance at him from afar at the village entrance.
When I saw that Chen Gang hadn't come to work in the morning, I went to the educated youth settlement to inquire about it. After learning the whole story, I felt even more sorry for Chen Gang.
He just liked someone, and there's nothing wrong with liking someone, so why was he beaten? She gradually grew dissatisfied with Su Tian. She had initially liked Su Tian quite a bit and even wanted to be friends with her.
But seeing Su Tian hitting people so easily, which didn't match her appearance at all, my heart gradually leaned towards Chen Gang.
She watched Su Tian carry the hoe to return it, her eyes revealing a hidden meaning: 'Since you don't like him, then I will like him and cherish him.'
If you ever lay a hand on my sweetheart again, I definitely won't let you get away with it.
Su Tian carried the hoe all the way. She knew someone was watching her, and it was a girl. She didn't know her and hadn't offended her. Why did this girl's eyes feel so creepy?
Before Su Tian could return the hoe, she was stopped by the little girl who was staring at her.
"Su Tian, you can't hit Brother Chen Gang anymore."
"Who are you?"
“I am Zou Daying, the youngest daughter of an accountant family,” she said proudly.
“As long as he doesn’t act like a jerk in front of me, I won’t lay a hand on him. I’m a reasonable and civilized person.”
"He just likes you, and you beat him so badly he can't get up. You're too cruel!" Zou Daying shouted.
Su Tian retorted, "You don't know anything, so don't talk nonsense. Besides, what business is it of yours if I hit him? Who are you to him?"
"I... I'm not anyone to him. I just told you not to hit him. I'll be keeping an eye on you." After saying that, Zou Daying ran away.
Su Tian was stunned by the girl's actions. How could she be so shameless?
After searching through the original book, I found out that she had a crush on Zou Daying, the youngest daughter of accountant Chen Gang.
So that's how it is. I didn't expect Zou Daying to have feelings for Chen Gang so early on.
She recalled that in the plot, Zou Daying was the first scapegoat Chen Gang found in the village, because Zou Daying once fell down and Chen Gang happened to help her up.
She developed feelings for Chen Gang after his sudden heroic rescue. The two gradually began to interact, and Zou Daying had taken a liking to Chen Gang from the very first time they met.
Now another hero comes to the rescue, isn't her heart already filled with that scumbag?
Imagine Zou Daying angrily berating her, only to find out that the scumbag was just spouting nonsense in front of that love-struck fool.
In the original book, the original owner was tormented terribly by Zou Daying, who used her father's power as the brigade accountant. In particular, it was Zou Daying who called people to find out that the original owner had been violated by an old widower.
