"Captain, over here, come quickly, I need to talk to you." Song Weiguang called the captain over.
When the captain came over, he found that Song Weiguang was calling him.
"You want something from me, kid?"
"Uncle Captain, could you arrange for me to work in Li Zhiqing's group with her? And all my work points will be counted as hers, is that alright?"
The brigade leader glanced at Song Weiguang, then at Li Chanjuan. He understood perfectly well: this kid had taken a liking to Li, the educated youth, and was currently trying to win her over.
"Sure, whatever you want, as long as you don't have any objections. When Xiaohua comes over, just have her help you with the calculations."
"I knew Captain Uncle was the best. Thank you, Captain Uncle. When I have time, I'll ask my dad to invite you for a couple of drinks." Song Weiguang said jokingly.
"Heh... okay, I'll wait. I'll get back to work now."
Looking at Song Weiguang's expression, Li Chanjuan thought, "He's really good with words."
“Your work points are credited to me, isn’t that a bit unfair? If your family finds out, they’ll skin me alive.”
"Where? No way, I keep all the money I earn myself. They wouldn't even look down on such a small amount of work points."
The two chatted as they worked, because Li Chanjuan's plot of land was only one-tenth of an acre, so she was assigned to work alone.
"Want to come to my house for lunch? You've worked so hard, come to my house to make up for it."
I'll ask my mom to kill a chicken for you; you haven't gained a single ounce of weight since you went to the countryside.
Li Chanjuan was touched to hear this; someone still cared about her.
"I'm not going. We're not that familiar with each other yet. If I just go to your house without permission, people will gossip."
"Then I'll take it to the educated youth settlement in a bowl for you, please don't refuse?"
"Wait, let's get to know each other for a week before we talk about it."
"Okay, I'll do as you say. Once we're more familiar with each other, I'll treat you to chicken."
The two worked together, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere became increasingly harmonious. They finished their work before the end of the workday.
They even asked Xiaohua to help calculate the work points and put them under Li Chanjuan's name, and then the two of them left together.
On their way back, they encountered Song Dawang and his mother carrying manure.
The two of them carrying manure stopped after only a few steps, and hadn't even walked a hundred meters in a long time.
Song Dawang cried and said, "I'm not doing this anymore, it's smelly and heavy, I can't carry it."
Meanwhile, Song Dawang's mother kept coaxing him, telling him to take his time choosing, otherwise he would lose money.
They were complaining about how tired they were and cursing Su Tian when Song Dawang and his mother saw Song Weiguang and Li Chanjuan walking together, chatting and laughing. Their expressions immediately turned ugly.
His mother, in particular, glared fiercely at Li Chanjuan before carrying away her manure.
Li Chanjuan was somewhat confused. She looked at Song Weiguang and said dejectedly, "Did I offend them?"
Song Weiguang gently patted Li Chanjuan's shoulder and explained, "Don't mind them. They hate the people in your educated youth settlement because of what happened when Su, the educated youth, beat them up." Li Chanjuan nodded, feeling even more disgusted with those two people.
In the following days, Song Weiguang frequently visited Li Chanjuan. The two worked in the fields together and chatted, and their relationship grew increasingly intimate.
The village chief and the others also noticed and asked Song Weiguang, "Are you dating that educated youth Li?"
"Not yet, she hasn't accepted me yet."
"How can you be so useless? It's been several days and you still haven't gotten anyone to accept you."
"That's right, you're no match for your dad. Back then, your dad took a liking to me at first sight and came to propose marriage the very next day. How come you haven't learned any of your dad's skills?" Feng Chunni said with exasperation.
"Find another time to ask her again and see if she'll agree. Otherwise, if you drag it out, the villagers will start gossiping."
"Okay, Mom and Dad, I'll go find her and ask her right now."
However, before Song Weiguang could even question Li Chanjuan, their actions had already sparked gossip among some villagers. Some said that Li Chanjuan was seducing Song Weiguang and trying to get him to help with chores.
Some people said Song Weiguang was a pile of cow dung, and Li Zhiqing was a flower, a flower stuck in cow dung. In short, all sorts of harsh words were said.
Before these rumors reached Song Weiguang's ears, he happily went to find Li Chanjuan, only to discover that she seemed to be in a bad mood.
Upon inquiry, it was learned that the rumors had reached Li Chanjuan's ears.
"Don't come anymore, everyone in the village is saying I'm trying to seduce you."
"It was me who seduced you, not you." Li Chanjuan wanted to laugh at his expression, but she held it in.
“The villagers say you’re like cow dung, and I’m like a flower,” Li Chanjuan said, looking at Song Weiguang.
"That's quite right. Aren't you a delicate flower? I'm just a pile of cow dung. I have to treat you well, no, I have to treat you even better, so that I can be worthy of you."
Li Chanjuan covered her mouth and laughed at his glib tongue.
"They call you cow dung, aren't you angry?"
"Don't be angry. I'm just a piece of cow dung that makes you look like a beautiful flower. They're only saying this because they're jealous of me. Will you agree to be my girlfriend?"
"Okay, I promise you. If you misbehave in the future and we break up, you can't bother me."
"Okay, whatever you say. Don't worry, I will treat you well. I will never be the one to treat you badly."
"Juanjuan, come to my house now, I'll ask my mom to kill a chicken for you to eat, just like I promised you last time. I'll bring you back after you've eaten."
"So fast? I'm a little scared."
"I'm not happy anymore. They're the ones who told me to come find you. Let's go, let's go to my house together."
"good."
