The cannon fodder female supporting role stirs up trouble in period literature

Chapter 102 Don't listen to those people's instigation

At this point, Xia Yu couldn't help curling up the corners of his lips. "Yao Xiliu has been shouting that the mountain god has appeared these days. He answers whatever you ask. It seems that he has a serious mental problem. Hey, the day before yesterday I saw the educated youth surnamed Shang in the team. His injuries have almost healed, but he is suspicious all day long. He often prostrates himself on the ground and kowtows to the back mountain. Do you think he was also scared silly by the appearance of the mountain god?"

Knowing that he was teasing her, Hua Rendong curled her lips, "Who can you blame? If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. Why aren't you scared to death?"

Thinking of the scene when he was hung upside down by her that day, Xia Yu shut up tactfully. Although he could reach a higher level than those two people and would never be scared, being hung upside down was really uncomfortable.

In mid-April, spring plowing officially began in Taohuawan Brigade.

The team has only two oxen, one of which is too old and can only plow the land half a day. There are many mountains here, so plowing still depends more on manpower.

The new educated youth have been here for more than half a month. They have become familiar with some farm work and are no longer like the previous batch of educated youth, who were caught in the busy farming season right after arriving in the countryside and became sick from exhaustion at the end of the day.

But working in the fields is not easy after all. After working for a whole day, I was so tired that I didn't even have the strength to move a finger. In the end, I even spent 50 cents on a meal and asked a village aunt to help cook it.

Cheng Yan lay on the kang and sobbed, "I want to go home. I don't want to do this anymore! How can this be a job for human beings?"

The blisters on her palms from digging the soil with a shovel were broken and bloody, and it hurt whenever she moved. Although she was not favored at home since she was a child, she had never done such heavy work.

Thinking about how such a life would end, she even wanted to die. If she had known that life in the countryside would be so hard, she would have agreed to marry the bald old man. At least the old man was a section chief in the city. She would not have to worry about food and drink and would have beautiful clothes to wear.

When one person cried, others would follow suit. The other three female educated youth living in the same room were already exhausted, and after hearing her cry, they couldn't help but wipe away their tears.

Life is so hard and there is no future in sight. They are really afraid of dying of exhaustion in the countryside.

For a moment, the female educated youth's room was filled with crying, and some of the male educated youth also started crying.

Hua Rendong had just returned from chatting with a group of old ladies at the village entrance. When she entered the yard, she heard a burst of crying and asked Xia Yu, who was serving the dishes, "What happened?"

Xia Yu glanced over there and said disdainfully: "I've been working in the fields all day, I'm tired!"

Thinking of the working scenes she saw in the village today, Hua Rendong felt sad. Fortunately, she and Dahua did not have to go to the countryside, otherwise they would probably be among the people crying today.

But the female educated youth cried, so why did the male educated youth cry too? Aren't they afraid of being embarrassed if they tell others about it? In comparison, Xia Yu, who also worked hard all day, was able to cook for her. It's true that you can't judge a person by his appearance, and handsome guys can't just be judged by their looks.

"Are you tired too? I'll wash the dishes later and come back to work later. I'll prepare all the meals."

Xia Yu shook his head and said with a little pride: "Not tired, can I be the same as them?"

Hua Rendong agreed with what she thought. Anyone who could enter the department must have his or her strengths. Even she herself could clearly feel the changes in her body day by day after gaining the superpower. Even if she plowed the fields all day, she probably wouldn't feel tired.

As they were chatting, someone came in from outside. Hua Rendong turned around and saw that it was Yue Zhiqing, who had been in a team with Xia Yu before.

After this period of contact, Hua Rendong got to know her. He had heard villagers talk about her many times. She was a rare good girl among the old educated youths, and a capable person who could easily earn ten work points a day.

Hua Rendong warmly invited her to come and eat together. Yue Zhiqing looked at the pepper fried bacon and salted duck eggs on the table, swallowed her saliva, and still refused embarrassedly, "No, you guys eat, I came to see Xia Zhiqing for something."

"Wait a moment!" Xia Yu put down the two bowls of rice he had just brought out, turned around and went back to the house. After a while, he came out with four boxes of canned meat, four packs of noodles and two pairs of knitting gloves.

Yue Zhiqing took the things, and a big smile bloomed on his dark red face. "Okay, I'll take care of all the work for the next half month. After half a month, we will still be a team. Don't listen to those people's instigation. I'm capable. I can finish our work by myself. We can split the work points equally. It's useless for those people to be jealous. They can't do the work better than me. You won't get so many work points if you team up with them."

Xia Yu nodded and said, "I won't listen to them. I will team up with you from now on."

Yue Zhiqing got the promise and left humming a little tune.

Hua Rendong stared at Xia Yu with a smile. No wonder he didn't seem tired. It turned out that all the work was done by Yue Zhiqing.

However, this Yue Zhiqing is indeed very strong. Even among the men in the team, there is no one who is more capable than her. No wonder she has the confidence to say that she can do the work of two people.

Xia Yu didn't feel embarrassed when Hua Rendong looked at him, and even nodded as a matter of course, "Learn from this. When you become a leader in the future, you must learn how to use people."

Hua Honeysuckle humbly accepted the teaching, "I have learned, I have learned, and I will ask the leaders to take care of me in the future."

Xia Yule's mouth was stretched to the back of his ears.

After dinner, Xia Yu took out an envelope with Hua Rendong's name on it and the sender's address was Beijing.

Hua Honeysuckle's eyes lit up and she asked quietly, "Salary?"

Xia Yu nodded modestly. Hua Rendong snatched it, tore open the seal and poured out a stack of tickets. There were all kinds of tickets that he had seen and had never seen before, and they were all valid throughout the country. The more Hua Rendong looked at it, the more his mouth curled up.

Not to mention how much these tickets can bring in, even if you sell them on the black market, they'll fetch at least a thousand dollars.

The department is really generous to give so many tickets after only working for less than a month.

Seeing Hua Rendong happily counting the votes, Xia Yu handed over another remittance slip. Hua Rendong took a closer look and her eyes almost dropped to the slip. "Two... two thousand? Why is it so much? Didn't they say the basic salary is one hundred?"

Xia Yu tapped his fingers on the table and said with some pride: "I told you that that's the basic salary. Don't you have a bonus in it? You did so many great things last month. You caught three bastards alone. They're all included in your salary. If there's no bonus in the future, your salary will definitely not be this high."

Thinking about it this way, Hua Rendong felt that two thousand was not too much, so he felt at ease taking it.

Although she now has tens of thousands of cash in her space, the meaning is different. This money is earned by her own ability at work.

After putting away the money and tickets, Hua Rendong decided to go to the post office to get the money tomorrow and then go back to the Hua family. He would not give the money, but send some tickets back. In case the eldest cousin or eldest cousin is going to get married one day, he should be prepared first, right?
