"Brother Zhang Shang, why do we have to pull weeds again? Weeding all day long, can't you do something else?" Zhou Man complained, squatting in the sweet potato field.
Aunt Wang, who was standing nearby, felt a sense of disdain for a moment after hearing this.
Zhang Shang didn't say anything, he just kept pulling weeds silently. Aunt Wang appreciated this educated youth very much, because he was quiet, listened to advice and was diligent.
"Brother Zhang Shang, there's so much grass here, we can't pull it all out. What's the use of pulling it out? It'll just keep growing back."
"Liu Hongying, you finish the rest. It's too sunny; I'm going to rest in the shade."
This time, Aunt Wang couldn't stand it anymore; she hated people who bullied honest people the most.
"Zhou Zhiqing, you've only just started working, and you're already thinking about slacking off?"
“Why can’t I rest for a while when I’m tired?” Zhou Man couldn’t help but retort.
"Everyone else is working under the sun, why are you so precious?" Aunt Wang said loudly.
Zhou Man rolled her eyes. "I'm precious enough as I am, and I didn't ask you to do anything for me."
"Tch, isn't your behavior just like that of a capitalist's daughter? Which of the workers here acts like you?"
"You're the capitalist's daughter, don't talk nonsense!" Zhou Man said loudly, hating it most when people said she acted like a capitalist's daughter.
Zhang Shang didn't want to hear them arguing. "Comrade Zhou Man, we are building a rural area now. Everyone should do their best. If you don't want to work, you can go back first."
Zhou Man was shocked by Zhang Shang's words and angrily threw down the weeds and left.
Liu Hongying watched Zhou Man walk away, but didn't say anything, and continued to diligently pull weeds beside her.
Aunt Wang glanced at Zhou Man as she walked away. "Qi, what kind of person is she? She just said a few words and ran off? Is she trying to avoid doing manual labor?"
Looking at Zhang Shang and Liu Hongying, Aunt Wang smiled and said, "You two are really hardworking and diligent. This pampered young lady doesn't seem like someone who can endure hardship."
"That's right, she can't eat a single bite, and she has to do everything. When she asks her to help with chores, she's not polite at all, and she's bossy and domineering. What else could she be but a spoiled brat?" Liu Hongying thought to herself.
She initially thought she could just tolerate it, but Zhou Man became increasingly outrageous and her tone became more and more domineering.
It's as if I really am her servant, unable to endure hardship and dragging her down to the countryside, while she herself doesn't do any work when she goes to the countryside.
"Sigh, when will this ever end?" Liu Hongying sighed silently to herself as she pulled weeds.
Song Dazhou, who was weeding another plot of land, was also secretly smiling as he did so.
He stole glances at Liu Hongying while occasionally grinning.
Sometimes when he laughs out loud, Liu Hongying, who lives not far away, will look in his direction.
Liu Hongying noticed that she would frequently run into that big, clumsy guy while she was working.
Sometimes we work together, and sometimes we work next to each other.
When she saw the big, silly guy, she would either laugh or grin, and when she laughed, she looked just like a big fool.
He was dark-skinned, but when he laughed, he would reveal a set of big white teeth. His eyes would squint when he laughed, making him look like a fool.
As Liu Hongying sighed and worked, she spotted the big, clumsy guy again.
He actually looked at her and smiled again, which made her angry. She glared back at him fiercely, turned her back to him, and started pulling weeds again.
'Huh, why did she turn around? Why isn't she watching him pull the weeds anymore?' Song Dazhou was very curious.
Aunt Qi, who was standing nearby, saw Song Dazhou's silly look and chuckled.
She gently nudged Song Dazhou and asked, "Do you like that Liu Zhiqing?"
"Heh..." He kept laughing and scratching his head, but he just wouldn't admit it because he was too embarrassed to admit it.
"If you like her, just tell her. How will she know if you don't tell her?" Aunt Qi suggested to him.
"I dare not, I'm scared," Song Dazhou explained.
"What are you afraid of? You're at the age where dating and marriage are perfectly normal."
Aunt Qi looked at the tall and strong Song Dazhou and felt disappointed in him. How could someone so big be so timid?
"I'm afraid she'll reject me and say I'm not good enough for her," Song Dazhou said, distressed.
"You haven't even asked yet, why are you afraid of being rejected?"
Your aunt gave you some advice: starting today, ask the team leader to assign you two to work together, and be more diligent in helping her.
If you work fast, you'll finish early, and over time, won't she be grateful to you from the bottom of her heart?
Thank you. Having spent so much time together, have you developed different feelings for each other?
"Aunt Qi, I think you're absolutely right. You know so much," Song Dazhou said gratefully.
"That's right, I've been there. Back in the day, my husband caught me like that," Aunt Qi recalled nostalgically.
"Okay, I'll go help right now."
Song Dazhou went to Liu Hongying's land, said a few words to Aunt Wang, and Aunt Wang agreed to come to his land to pull weeds.
When Liu Hongying saw this big, clumsy guy running onto her land, she didn't say much, but she became wary.
As soon as Song Dazhou arrived at Liu Hongying's land, he immediately began weeding.
He wanted her to finish work and go home early, as the sun was getting stronger.
Although it can get a bit chilly in the south in late October, the sun is still incredibly strong and can be unbearably hot.
"Hey, Qi Feng, is that Song Dazhou?" Aunt Wang asked gossipily.
"Yes, just like you see," Qi Feng said confidently.
"Oh my, has that big guy finally come to his senses? He's nineteen this year, it's about time he got married," Aunt Wang added.
“He is nineteen years old, and his younger sister Song Xiaohua is already 17 years old.”
