Age: My Small World

Chapter 542 Cutting Wheat
lunch time.

Yang Jun held the bowl, looked at the thick corn porridge inside, and casually asked for some pickles.

After getting his meal, he walked to a stone slab, squatted down, and started eating.

After a while, Xu Yan also came over.

"How about it? Any good ideas?"

She took a sip of porridge and a bite of pickles.

It’s true, the food in Shanwo Village is pretty good, and the conditions are much better than those in ordinary production teams.

"What other ideas can I have? Let's take it one step at a time." Yang Jun said helplessly.

Seeing that there was nothing she could do about it, Xu Yan nodded and drank her porridge with peace of mind.

Nothing was destined to happen today. The militia team was basically keeping a close eye on one side of the student dormitory. Any movement would not escape their eyes.

"Get some rest tonight. They're here, so nothing will happen."

After dinner, everyone gathered together again, and Yang Jun comforted Xu Yan like this.

Of course, they couldn't rest in the afternoon, so they had to start working directly.

It just so happened that the wheat was ripe, so everyone started harvesting it.

At the beginning, the team members did not trust the students' ability to work, so they only let them come over to help.

After they gradually became familiar with the work, I finally handed them the sickles and started harvesting.

"Swish, swish, swish~" Wheat fell down in large pieces, and a piece of golden field suddenly became empty.

Although some men have bad eyes, most of them are good people. Tian Yousheng also made serious arrangements and assigned the girls to help honest and reliable people.

Boys don't care.

Yang Jun worked with a bachelor who cursed from time to time, probably because he was not happy with Tian Yousheng's arrangement.

Unfortunately, he can't afford to offend the captain.

"Young man, where are you from?" The man felt bored and asked Yang Jun.

In the scorching weather, he had to wipe his forehead with a towel from time to time, as he was covered in sweat.

In contrast, Yang Jun cannot see sweat.

"Capital University." He answered casually, focusing his attention on the wheat.

"Oh." The man didn't know the meaning of Capital University, nor did he understand what these college students were doing. He only knew that they were very educated.

So he said, "Can you write a letter for me?"

"Sure, who are you writing it to?" Yang Jun asked curiously.

The man actually hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's from the production team next door."

It seems like I need to write a love letter or something like that.

Yang Jun looked up at the man in surprise. It seems that not every single man has a bad personality.

Maybe he simply admired the beautiful students.

After several hours of harvesting wheat, everyone was so tired that they lay down in the wheat field.

The children were still picking up fallen ears of wheat in the fields, and they got excited every time they found one.

There was a fire next to the ground. Some of the green wheat was roasted directly on the fire, and then they rubbed it open and put it in their mouths. It tasted quite fragrant.

It’s obviously not that delicious, but they still enjoy eating it.

For a moment, everyone forgot their previous troubles and felt a little more relaxed.

As the sky gradually darkened and the sun set, Wang Zhenwei, the accountant in charge of calculating work points, checked the work points and announced that today's work was over.

It was time to eat. Compared to lunch, dinner was much better.

Some clues can be heard from the conversation between the captain and Teacher Liu.

"Teacher Liu, I'm so sorry to have frightened you, but don't worry, I'll be watching over this personally. If you have any questions, feel free to come to me and I'll solve them."

"It's troublesome, but as long as the students' safety is guaranteed, that's better than anything else."

……

"Brother Jun, I smell the aroma of meat. There is stewed meat for dinner." Wang Chong was rather thin, and his cheeks were a little pale from being tired after a day's work.

Yang Jun glanced at the place where the food was being served and shook his head, saying, "It's probably just a meat soup, don't get your hopes up too much."

Indeed, it is enough to have a taste of meat. If everyone is to have some meat, the team may have to kill a pig.

Fortunately, the staple food was not corn porridge, but corn steamed bread, served with a bowl of cabbage soup with meat flavor, which tasted not bad.

While eating, everyone became noisy and the sound of chatting was heard one after another.

The rule of not talking while eating obviously doesn't apply here.

"Yang Jun, thank you for your help today." Xu Yan came over at some point. Her hands holding the dishes were a little red, probably from being sunburned.

"Nothing, I'm just running back and forth to take a look. You're the one who's really busy."

"Thank you anyway."

Wang Chong quietly stepped aside, and then was pulled aside by Lego to talk in private. Yang Jun knew what they were talking about without even listening.

Xu Yan seemed completely unaware and just squatted next to Yang Jun eating steamed bread.

The corn-scented steamed bread is delicious, and the fragrance lingers in your mouth after you take a bite.

However, Yang Jun finished it in just a few bites.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Xu Yan, "I'm going to the next brigade later. If you need anything, ask Lu Liangjun for help. I'll be back in a few hours."

Xu Yan paused and asked, "Are you going to find your partner?"

"Yeah, I'm a little worried about her."

Xu Yan didn't know what she was thinking. She was stunned for a moment before nodding and saying, "Okay, be careful on the road."

Afterwards, Yang Jun gave some instructions to a few roommates before leaving the production team alone.

Because the distance is very close, he doesn't need to get any certificate, after all, they are from the same village.

Walking north from the Shanwo Production Team and following an upward mountain road, we successfully arrived at another production team, the Yanshang Production Team.

Cheng Xiaoyu was here, and he wasn't actually too worried about this girl, after all, Xiaoyuer was still carrying the gun he gave her.

After going down the path behind a family's house, he saw the team members rushing home, probably not long after finishing dinner.

Yang Jun casually grabbed an old lady and asked about the news.

Knowing that he was also a student and had been assigned to the mountain nest team on the side of the mountain, the old lady immediately smiled and said, "Young man, it's a good thing you're not a girl, otherwise you would definitely be dragged away to be a wife because you're so pretty."

Yang Jun's face immediately turned dark. "Auntie, you can be joking, but don't slander me. This is what I call handsome," he said.

Unable to defend himself, he quickly slipped away after hearing about Cheng Xiaoyu's news. The aunt behind him even pulled everyone else to laugh.

The student residence arranged by the Yanshang Production Team was not far from the square, and Yang Jun saw it as soon as he passed by.

After finishing their meal, the students were heading back to their residence, walking in groups of three or four, their steps leisurely. It seemed that they were not troubled by the Shanwo team.

When he saw two familiar figures, Yang Jun hurried over.

"Brother Xiaoshan? Why are you here so soon?!"

Cheng Xiaoyu rushed over in surprise.
