Fast-forward to the era of cannon fodder

"Yes, Zhang Zhiqing, I heard that you have been taking leave from work every day recently to go to the county supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. My family hasn't given me money for a long time. Can you lend me 20 yuan? I will definitely pay you back when my family gives me the money."

"And me, it's almost autumn, and I haven't prepared my autumn clothes yet. Can you lend me thirty yuan and a meter of cloth coupons? I want to buy a new set of autumn clothes."

A group of female educated youth surrounded Zhang Hao to borrow money and tickets.

Zhang Hao pushed them away forcefully. "You have no money, no tickets, and no clothes to wear. What does it have to do with me? I am not related to you. Why should I lend you money or tickets?"

"Don't you buy delicious food and clothes for Pan Ruoer every day? If you can buy things for Pan Ruoer, why can't you buy things for us? We are all female educated youth. Do you still want to treat us differently?"

"We asked you if you were dating, and you said no. If you weren't, you bought this and that for Pan Ruo'er. Why did Pan Ruo'er get all the benefits? We wanted to borrow some money, but you refused to lend us. And you said you weren't dating. Who are you trying to fool?"

"Pan Ruo'er, are you still eating from the pot and looking at the bowl? I heard that many men in the village help you to complete tasks. Are you afraid that the news of you and Zhang Hao dating will spread to the village, and those men will not help you with work? Pan Ruo'er, aren't you kidding them? If you don't want to date someone, then why do you want them to help you with work and give you food, and you accepted it? What do you mean?"

"Pan Ruo'er, let's not talk about the men in the village, let's talk about the men in our Youth Academy. Who hasn't given you benefits? You accepted the benefits, and then they turned around and said that you have always treated them as brothers. We are all strangers from all over the world. What brother? Isn't it just an excuse for you to take advantage of others?"

Turning around, the female educated youth stopped attacking Zhang Hao and instead attacked Pan Ruoer.

Pan Ruoer was speechless after being scolded. She covered her face with tears and ran into the house.

Zhang Hao wanted to follow in, but found that the door was locked from the inside.

Zhang Hao didn't care about his sweetheart, so he took out all his anger on several female educated youth. However, the female educated youth were not easy to deal with. They scolded Zhang Hao and confirmed that Zhang Hao and Pan Ruoer were dating.

The next day, the news that Zhang Hao and Pan Ruoer were dating spread throughout the village.

Those rural men who had tried to please Pan Ruoer were heartbroken when they heard this. But since Pan Ruoer already had a boyfriend, to avoid unpleasant gossip, the old mothers of these men kept a close eye on them and would not let them get close to Pan Ruoer again.

No one helps Pan Ruoer with her work.

She went to Zhang Hao for help crying.

Zhang Hao was born in a wealthy family and had never suffered hardship. He could not even complete his own tasks and had his work points deducted every day. How could he have the energy to help Pan Ruoer?

So, that day, Pan Ruoer only got one work point, and that was because the scorekeeper saw that she was crying and felt sorry for her, so he gave her the work point for nothing.

Otherwise, she wouldn't get any work points for the land she hadn't even touched with the hoe.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the second male lead to get his salary.

Although Pan Ruoer didn't pay much attention to the second male lead and didn't dare to ask for food from him, she was still thinking about his salary. Forty yuan, wouldn't it be nice to spend it?

Money is not food, asking for it will poison you.

So Pan Ruoer waited at the village entrance early.
