After starting the engine, Gu Xingzhou jumped onto the tractor and sat down. Seeing that the captain couldn't sit still, he smiled helplessly and reminded him again:
"Captain, sit tight. There will be some jerking noises when the car starts to move. You must sit tight to be safe. Sit tight and I'll drive away."
"Oh, okay, okay."
The team leader sat down, pulled the edge of the truck bed, smiled, and said to the agricultural machinery officer with a thick face: "Comrade, can you give us the cloth on the ground that was originally covering the tractor? We can use this cloth to cover the dust in the future."
The clerk looked at the cloth on the ground, saw his sincere and eager eyes, and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, you guys take it."
"Captain, I'll get it, don't move."
Yang Mumu turned over and picked up the black cloth beside him, then turned over and sat back in the truck.
The captain used the cloth to cover the other farm tools on the vehicle, then his body started moving again, his eyes began to look around, and he couldn't stop at all.
The captain was moving his body as if he had ADHD, shifting here and there on the bench, bending over and looking outside.
Yang Mumu wanted to tie up the captain with a rope.
There was no other way. Worried that the captain would fall, Yang Mumu grabbed his hand and held it down forcefully.
He handed the packed meal to the captain and gave him something to do to distract himself.
"Captain, eat your meal by the side of the truck bed first. It won't taste good if it gets cold. You are the only one eating on the tractor. When you go out, the captains will be jealous of you."
After Yang Mumu said this, he, who originally didn't want to eat very much, immediately took the lunch box, opened it and started eating.
He also took out a few cents and a meal ticket from his pocket and handed them to Yang Mumu.
"You're right. It's unique. Eating on a tractor. Other teams can't do that."
Yang Mumu pushed the money and tickets back and said, "Captain, you don't have to be so polite. You've taken good care of me, so you can just eat."
The fact that the captain had endorsed her and taken photos for her was more than worth a meal, and she absolutely could not accept the money or the ticket.
Pushed forward again.
"Please keep it."
"Thank you, Mumu. I'm sorry for your expense." The captain no longer refused, put the money back, opened the lunch box and started eating. "This roast pork with beans is really delicious. It's worthy of being cooked by the chef of the state-owned hotel."
"Captain, just eat as you like."
Yang Mumu waved her hand and helped the captain get his water bottle and handed it to him.
"Thank you!"
Zhao Xiangdong likes the two juniors in front of him more and more. They are sensible, smart, and capable. They know everything. It is so prestigious to bring them out.
It’s also good for Xiao Gu, the two of them are a perfect match.
Zhao Xiangdong took a bite of rice and looked at Gu Xingzhou in front of him. He saw him operating the tractor skillfully. The next second, he felt the tractor start and move forward slowly.
"Is this what it feels like to drive a tractor? Wow, it's really comfortable. This is my first time sitting on one and feeling it, haha."
In fact, it was not comfortable, and it was a bit bumpy and jerky, but it was the only tractor in the entire commune and it was my first time riding one, so it was very comfortable mainly because it was the only one and the first.
Being uncomfortable is comfortable.
Yang Mumu completely understood the captain's mental journey.
Looking back at the captain, he saw the tractor was about to drive out of the gate, and he even slowed down his eating movements.
I slowed down on purpose because I wanted to save some food so that I could eat it in front of the captain outside later.
Their eyes were like radars, scanning the surroundings and accurately spotting other team captains standing on the road.
"Xiao Gu, please drive the tractor slower after we get out."
"clear."
Gu Xingzhou immediately understood what the captain meant, which was for the people outside and for the happiness of being noticed at that moment.
He understood everything, so he slowed down a bit and drove out slowly.
"Yes, that's the speed." The captain was satisfied and looked at the gate after finishing his meal.
The moment I went out, I successfully saw the shock and envy in the eyes of every captain.
The captain pretended to casually eat a mouthful of rice when he saw the people below him, and then he shouted as if he saw the people below him:
"Oh, you haven't gone back to eat yet. I'm eating lunch on the tractor. You should go back to eat too. It's slow to walk back. I don't know when I can have lunch. I must be so hungry."
The captain was sitting in the car and showing off in a high-profile manner. Yang Mumu was sitting inside, watching the reactions of the captains of the various teams below.
All the captains below clenched their fists. Their original envious expressions were gone, their fists became a little hard, and they wanted to beat someone up.
However, they ended up shedding tears of envy.
It was absolutely impossible for me to go up and beat anyone, and I was also prepared to borrow a tractor from their brigade when needed in the future.
Being unique is not just talk. Who dares to offend the Haha team?
Anyway, when the car drove out, people on both sides of the road were staring at it.
The more people stopped and looked over, the happier Zhao Xiangdong became.
After the tractor moved forward a little, Yang Mumu heard the captain exclaiming again.
"This tractor is really huge. Look, Zhao Xiangdong is eating on it. He is so happy that he can't see the end of it."
Zhao Xiangdong, who was being criticized by him, was secretly pleased when he heard someone say that he was eating on the tractor. He looked over and smiled at him and shouted:
"Lao Li, why are you looking at my lunch box? Look at my tractor. Next time I have a chance, I'll let you experience the feeling of eating on a tractor. It's very cool."
Captain Li was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he took out some dry food from his pocket and shouted shamelessly:
"Lao Zhao, let's not do it next time. Let's do it this time. I just happened to have some corn cakes in my bag for lunch. I'll ask the young guys in your team to stop and let me sit. It just so happens that our two teams are going in the same direction, so it's convenient for us. There's an empty seat next to you."
After the captain said this, Yang Mumu looked at the captain, and seeing that the smile on the captain's face had not diminished at all, he nodded in agreement readily.
"That's fine. I can give you a ride."
The captain patted Gu Xingzhou on the shoulder and signaled him to slow down.
Gu Xingzhou received the signal, nodded, and started to brake, slowing down, but he had not yet stopped completely.
Captain Li couldn't wait to put the biscuits in his pocket and started to climb up. Yang Mumu and the captain pulled him up.
"Thank you, thank you. Thank you so much."
Captain Li shook Zhao Xiangdong's hand to express his gratitude, and took out a corn tortilla from his pocket and gave one to each of them.
How could Yang Mumu eat someone else's lunch? He waved his hand and pushed it back, "Uncle, no, you eat, we've already eaten."
"That's right, Lao Li, take some and eat it yourself. I haven't finished the food in my lunch box yet. Come on, let's experience the feeling of eating on a tractor together."
Zhao Xiangdong glanced at the envious and annoyed eyes of the other captains under the car, feeling very pleased, and took another mouthful of rice.
"Okay, okay."
Captain Li's mouth was almost split to his ears. He quickly took out a corn tortilla from his pocket and started to nibble on it, mainly with his mouth, while his eyes had to be on the people below to feel it.
When I saw the envious expressions of the familiar people below and heard their sour tones, the joy in my heart reached its peak and I couldn't help but speak.
"It's really good. It's different on the tractor. The corn tortillas taste a lot better."
The people below were eager to go up and experience it.
Someone shouted, "Lao Zhao, let us sit down too."
