Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

"Hmm!" Liu Manman nodded sullenly. After all, the current situation was very unfavorable for her and Ren Pingwei, and what else could they do but endure it?

Meanwhile, at Village Chief Liu's home.

When Village Chief Liu returned home, his wife, Hu Laidi, who had just finished feeding the pigs in the yard, asked in confusion, "Didn't you say your cousin's daughter would arrive today? She should have arrived in the village by now. Why didn't you bring her back?"

“Sigh! Don’t even mention it,” Village Chief Liu sat down under the eaves. “If I had known that Liu Manman was such a jerk, I would never have thought of letting her come to live with us.”

Then Village Chief Liu recounted the whole story, which made Hu Laidi frown: "People in the city are so cunning. They're so young, yet they already know how to scheme against others. Their hearts are so vicious!"

“You always say your cousin is good, that he doesn’t forget his roots and values ​​family ties,” Hu Laidi said with a look of disdain. “If he can raise a daughter like that, what kind of good person could your cousin be? Don’t you think that although your cousin has sent you things during holidays over the years, our family has always given back gifts, and each time the gifts we give back are more substantial?”

“Food is so scarce right now! The gifts we gave to your cousin were all real grain, unlike the fancy but useless things your cousin always sends.”

"Sigh! I understand," Village Chief Liu sighed heavily, "I will no longer have any dealings with my cousin's family."

"That's more like it," Hu Laidi said with satisfaction, and then hurried out the door.

As for what she was going out to do? Of course, she was going to spread rumors about Liu Manman's terrible character, and that her family didn't recognize her as a relative, so they couldn't let Liu Manman affect their family's reputation.

So, Liu Manman had only been in Wanjia Village for less than a day, and her and Ren Pingwei's reputations had already become infamous throughout the village.

The next morning, when they arrived at the village brigade with all the other educated youth, the two of them were pointed at and gossiped about by the villagers.

"Those two people, they look respectable, but I never expected them to be such scoundrels inside."

"Pah! What disgusting junk! The young men and women in our village should be more careful in the future, lest they end up like that unlucky educated youth Jiang, being targeted by these two junks."

"........."

"........."

Hearing these voices cursing them, Ren Pingwei and Liu Manman's faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Honestly, they were furious. This relentless barrage of attacks was driving them crazy.

Unlike Ren Pingwei and Liu Manman, Jiang Chunxi received a lot of sympathetic glances.

Tsk tsk! With such a stark contrast, it's no wonder that Ren Pingwei and Liu Manman are almost driven mad.

Since they had just arrived in the countryside, the village did not assign them heavy work, but rather relatively easy tasks, such as weeding in the fields.

Even so, Jiang Chunxi and the others, who were working in the fields for the first time, still suffered a great deal.

Even Jiang Chunxi was no exception. After all, she had never done farm work before. After half a day, she was so tired that she could hardly straighten her back.

When I got back to the educated youth compound, I was so exhausted that I collapsed onto the bed.

It's worth mentioning that the meals at the educated youth compound were cooked together, with everyone taking turns cooking.

However, Ren Pingwei and Liu Manman were excluded. So after working in the fields for half a day, they were so tired that they could barely lift their arms. But when the two of them returned to the educated youth compound, they still had to start a fire and cook.

"Waaah! I'm going to die," Fang Yu cried as soon as she lay down on the bed. "Why is working in the fields so tiring? This is not a life for a human being. I don't want to stay here. I want to go back!"

"Alright, stop crying," Liao Min said helplessly. "It's normal to feel like this when you first start working in the fields. You'll get used to it after a while."

"How can I adapt to this?" Fang Yu cried even harder. "This is torture that is worse than death. If it is torture that is worse than death, how can I adapt to it?"

“Sigh! I have to adapt, even if I can’t!” Yao Li sighed. “When I first came here, I cried almost every night, but what good did it do? Tears don’t change anything, they only make me feel worse.”

"Fortunately, I managed to get through those tough times, and now I'm used to the hard work in the fields. But I don't know when this will end. Do you think we'll be stuck in the countryside forever and never be able to go back?"

Yao Li's words created a tense atmosphere in the entire dormitory, and even Jiang Chunxi was affected by it.

There was no way around it; working in the fields was just too tiring. She simply couldn't accept having to work in the fields for the next few years.

It seems she needs to think of a solution.

Meanwhile, on Ren Pingwei and Liu Manman's side...

Ren Pingwei's hands trembled, and he wasted several matches without being able to light the straw in the stove.

"It went out again," Liu Manman cried and raged. "Ren Pingwei, what's wrong with you? Look how many matches you've wasted. If you really can't do it, then let me do it."

As she spoke, Liu Manman snatched the matchbox from Ren Pingwei's hand, but her physical condition was even worse than Ren Pingwei's; her hands were shaking so badly that she didn't even have the strength to strike a match.

"Ah!" Liu Manman screamed in despair and threw the matchbox on the ground. "I can't take it anymore. This is torture. Working in the fields is clearly taking lives."

"Why, why do I have to suffer like this? Is it because I'm not the favored child at home that I have to come to the countryside to suffer like this?"

"Alright, stop complaining about all this nonsense, let's hurry up and start a fire to cook!" Ren Pingwei picked up the matchbox on the ground. "Otherwise, if we don't have enough to eat, how are we going to get through the afternoon?"

Liu Manman looked at the cooking scene across the table and said with a resentful expression, "It's all that bitch Jiang Chunxi's fault. If it weren't for that bitch, why would those old educated youths be so hostile to us, not even letting us share a meal with them?"

"Don't bother," Liu Manman stood up. "Given our current physical condition, even if we manage to start a fire, we probably won't be able to cook. Let's go to my uncle's house for a meal and ask him to arrange some easier jobs for us."

"Hmph! You know, my dad has sent my uncle a lot of things every year during holidays over the years. Considering what my dad sends him every year, my uncle wouldn't refuse to help with such a small thing, would he?"
