Chapter 70: Jiaojiao is spoiled by the rough man

Chapter 127 Innocently Implicated

Xu Yan's answer to this question was not beyond her expectations.

"I have really wronged you in the past few days." Su Wanwan, who wanted to walk quietly, was suddenly moved when she heard Xu Yan's words, "It's okay, Li Meifen and I are not good at socializing, and we accidentally angered the captains."

In fact, only Li Meifen directly angered the captain, and she was implicated innocently.

"Be patient, there will soon be no more such heavy work and the harvest will be over soon." Xu Yan's comfort made Su Wanwan nod heavily in agreement.

The two seemed to have an illusion. This slightly long distance brought them to the courtyard gate after a brief conversation.

At this time, Li Meifen walked towards this side along the opposite road with a depressed mood, and saw Xu Yan and Su Wanwan returning from afar.

With worry and dissatisfaction, she asked in a cheerful voice: "Brother, where have you been? You came back so late, do you know how worried we are about you?"

"I'm right, right? He is not in any danger at all, but you two insisted on running out to look for him." Bai Luwei smiled immediately when he saw the three of them finally coming back.

"What are you busy with? Haven't you finished your day's work?" Of course, Li Meifen's question was not answered. Su Wanwan didn't want to say anything more and immediately returned to the house.

"Where did you find Brother Xu Yan?" Li Meifen did not give up asking and immediately chased into the house and whispered to Su Wanwan.

"In the fields." Su Wanwan, who had already showered and washed up, could just lift up the quilt and take a rest, but Li Meifen didn't even have a chance to wash up, and her legs were covered with dried mud.

The next morning, the production team members gathered at the old place as usual. Su Wanwan got up at the right time, washed up, and walked out of the yard with a kettle and lunch box.

She thought her physiological rhythm had adapted to her daily work in the production team, but the heaviness in her arms seemed to be even more severe than the day before, constantly reminding her that her resistance to this job had not disappeared.

The stern-looking deputy team leader at the front of the team shouted at Su Wanwan and another woman, "Two comrades failed to complete their assigned work area yesterday. I'm here to remind you this morning that those who don't work seriously should pay attention. The autumn harvest is only a short time away. If you delay, the rice may rot in the field."

Seeing that Li Meifen looked a little uncomfortable in the queue, she had been keeping an eye on Su Wanwan since the morning, as if there was a deep grudge between the two. After queuing with Su Wanwan, her anger had not yet subsided, and the deputy captain's words further ignited her anger.

Su Wanwan, who felt helpless, kept a calm expression and only quietly distanced herself from Li Meifen. As soon as she heard the deputy captain's voice, Li Meifen's attention immediately shifted to him. The deputy captain came over and looked down at Li Meifen with his height advantage.

"What did you say? Repeat it."

People with a burly stature always bring an invisible pressure to others. Although Li Meifen had firmly refuted it before, she now hesitated, lowered her voice several tones, and repeated her previous remarks.

"I tell you clearly, although there are some people who have not completed their areas of responsibility, no one is like you who have not even finished half of it!" The deputy captain was obviously prepared. He immediately counterattacked as soon as Li Meifen's words fell, causing Li Meifen's shoulders to tremble and her momentum dissipated instantly.

Su Wanwan thought that Li Meifen would continue to respond, but she waited for a long time, but Li Meifen fell silent. She was obviously so scared that she couldn't speak.

Seeing Li Meifen was frightened into silence by a sentence, the deputy team leader smiled coldly and immediately focused his attention on all the members of the production team: "Don't think that autumn harvest is just an easy game. This is the rice field of our village, and the villagers will have to rely on their own food in the future. If we are lazy this autumn, I'm afraid that even food will become a problem next spring!"

The young men responded to the deputy captain's warning one after another, and the entire team rushed to the rice field working area as mighty as the day before.

On the way, the topic of Su Wanwan and Li Meifen became heated again. Arriving at the familiar fork in the road, the young men and women went to their respective areas, and the young women went straight to their work sites. The rest of the young people followed the original division of labor and focused on the work in their respective areas.

However, when everyone arrived at the vicinity of Su Wanwan and Li Meifen's mission area, they were shocked by the scene in front of them - the work that Xu Yan had completed last night was now clearly visible: rows of rice were neatly and neatly stacked on the ground, waiting for the tractor to come and harvest them.

The team leader opened his eyes wide first, walked towards Su Wanwan quickly, pointed at the few unharvested rice fields behind him, and was so surprised that he couldn't speak. They had clearly checked the areas in charge of these two people when they left yesterday, and it was clear that they had only completed less than half of it.

How could there be so little left after just one night? Even if we don't consider that Su Wanwan and the others didn't seem to stay up late, even if they stayed up all night, it would be impossible for them to be so fast!

Su Wanwan spoke calmly, without any boasting in her tone, as if she was stating an established fact: "As you can see." It seemed that she had expected this scene. When she caught a glimpse of Xu Yan's shadow by the rice field last night, she had expected this ending.

Li Meifen, who was standing by, obviously had never expected that what was waiting ahead would be like this. When Xu Yan met her last night and told her that he was going to work, she thought he was taking the burden on himself. She thought that the terms of the exchange had been reached, and Xu Yan didn't need to worry about money, so why should he take on such a heavy job when others were resting?

What was shocking was that Xu Yan's so-called "job" was to harvest rice for Su Wanwan! In an instant, Li Meifen's face turned gloomy and her breathing became rapid.

It turned out that what Li Meifen had been brewing in her mind and wanted to tell Xu Yan last night was Su Wanwan's indifferent attitude. She clearly didn't care about Xu Yan's hard work and tiredness, but why did he still try his best to give all this for Su Wanwan?

How long does it take to harvest so much rice?

As her eyes turned cold, a gleam of hostility and hatred flashed in Li Meifen's eyes.

"What did I see?" The team leader was still full of surprise, waiting for Su Wanwan to give an answer.

"Didn't the village party secretary teach us to do more farm work before? The autumn harvest is approaching, and we should keep the party secretary's instructions in mind, so we did a little more than usual."

Su Wanwan finally raised her head and looked at the team leader firmly. Her words revealed an extremely sincere expression, which made the skeptical people present feel the same way.

It is impossible for this rice field to be cut down without any reason, someone must have contributed the effort; young villagers were warned not to get too close to young people from outside the village in exchange for labor, as no one would volunteer to help.

Therefore, the only people left to do the job were Su Wanwan and Li Meifen.

"Are you implying that all this rice was harvested during the night shift?" The team leader pointed to the completed part and looked at Su Wanwan, implying that Li Meifen was also included in his words.
