A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 43: Everyone Has the Heart of 8 Gossip

Shen Jiaren was standing in the field, looking at the scenery in the distance and sighing about life, when she heard Aunt Aihua calling out, "Shen Zhiqing, Xiao Zhou's family, let's go, get off work, have you found the scorekeeper to register?

If you have registered, we can go to work together."

Auntie Xiao Zhou replied, "I've already come to see it and registered. Come on, let's go together. Shen Zhiqing, let's go. There's nothing good to see over there. If you really want to see it, wait until the autumn harvest is over in a few days, and I'll take you to the mountains to see trees of all colors. That's really beautiful."

When Shen Jiaren heard Auntie Xiao Zhou's description, she couldn't help but smile and replied, "Okay, okay, I'll wait for you to call me, and we'll go up the mountain together. Let's get off work now?"

"Hahahaha, let's go." Aunt Zhou couldn't help but replied with a smile when she heard Shen Jiaren's answer.

When Aunt Aihua saw the two people standing in the field and laughing, she couldn't help but say, "Let's go, let's go, go back and laugh slowly, there are things to do when you go back, so go back first."

When Shen Jiaren heard Aunt Aihua say this, she smiled even more happily.

Because at this moment, she felt that her waist, her shoulders, and her arms were no longer her own.

Even if I go back, I will probably just eat, wash up and go to sleep. After all, I am tired and sweaty all day, and I really just want to rest.

After all, although I had made a lot of mental preparations for the autumn harvest before, when it came to the actual practice, I found that I had thought too simply.

If you are weeding, you can take your time, rest, and most importantly, sit down. But when you are cutting rice, you have to bend over, swing your arms constantly, and what is even more difficult is that you cannot rest for even a moment.

At this moment, Shen Jiaren really felt that if she was not outside, she would really want to lie on the ground and rest for a while, and then go home when she didn't feel so tired.

But Shen Jiaren also knew that lying down before leaving would be just deceiving herself. She decided to go back with Aunt Aihua and Aunt Xiaozhou first. Otherwise, if she relied on herself, there was no telling how long it would take.

When Liu Jun and Auntie Zhou walked to the front of the brigade warehouse, Auntie Zhou went back to her home, leaving Shen Jiaren and Zhang Aihua alone.

"Aunt Aihua, Uncle Liu Jun, thank you so much today. If it weren't for your help today, I would have questioned whether I could go home today, let alone go home so early." Shen Jiaren sincerely thanked Zhang Aihua and Liu Jun.

"How could that be? You were very nice when you talked to Xiao Zhou's family about the assignment field and work points this morning. We are helping you, so we may just let you go home a little earlier. After all, Xiao Zhou's family is also good at work, so it is not a problem for them to take you to work. So, you can definitely go home today, just a little early." Zhang Aihua replied when she heard what Shen Jiaren said.

"First, get familiar with harvesting rice. Once you are used to it, your speed will increase.

Today is the first day, let's help each other, and later on, it all depends on the situation."

"I understand, Auntie. I will become proficient as soon as possible and improve my speed in cutting wheat."

"Yeah, that's good. Remember to bring a normal meal tomorrow. But we may not be working together tomorrow, so be careful."

"Yes, aunt, I understand."

After saying that, the three of them prepared to part ways from the fork in the road and go home.

As a result, as soon as I reached the fork in the road, I heard a quarrel inside the educated youth center. The most important thing was that there were a bunch of villagers standing on the side of the road, all listening to the gossip.

Zhang Aihua said to Shen Jiaren, "We will go home first, you should go home and have some rest."

Shen Jiaren replied, "Yes, aunt, goodbye, see you tomorrow."

After Shen Jiaren finished answering, she watched Aunt Aihua walk towards home, then stood on the side of the road a little distance away from the crowd, ready to see what happened.

Shen Jiaren was actually very curious about why there were quarrels in the educated youth camp. After all, maybe because they were all educated youth who left their hometowns and went to the countryside, there was some sympathy among them, so generally speaking, there were some small conflicts, but no big conflicts, and even less quarrels like this. After all, Zhao Yuanchao would basically solve the problem before it even started. For example, when Shen Jiaren went to the educated youth camp before, she saw Chen Jiaojiao and other educated youths arguing with Zhao Yuanchao, and basically there would be no big quarrels.

This time the commotion was so fierce and the noise was so loud. It was the first time I had seen or heard of it.

And the key point is that it is the autumn harvest time, and everyone has just finished work. After a tiring day, most people just want to go home and take a shower and sleep. How can they have the leisure to care about other people's affairs?

Shen Jiaren was wondering why they were quarreling. Wasn't Zhao Yuanchao at the educated youth center? Shen Jiaren looked up curiously, and then she heard someone next to her say, "The leader of the educated youth center is here. The leader of the educated youth center is here."

Shen Jiaren looked up and found Zhao Yuanchao and several educated youth who came with Shen Jiaren, as well as several old educated youth who were returning from work.

When Shen Jiaren saw how tired these educated youth looked after returning, and then looked at the sky, she suddenly felt that Aunt Aihua and Uncle Liu Jun were really good people, otherwise she might have been one of them now.

When Zhao Yuanchao saw so many people gathered outside the educated youth center and heard the sound of quarreling, he pushed open the door and prepared to go in to see what was going on and whether it was worth quarreling about.

As soon as the door of the educated youth center was opened, the sound of quarreling in the yard became clearer. Shen Jiaren listened carefully and thought, oh, is Chen Jiaojiao fighting with someone again? ? ?

Didn't I just hear Chen Jiaojiao and Aunt Zhou had a fight this morning? Why is she arguing with someone else now? ?

After listening for a long time, Shen Jiaren finally realized that it was because of the firewood problem again.

According to the regulations of the educated youth site, male educated youth were responsible for fetching water, and female educated youth were responsible for firewood. Today was the autumn harvest day and Chen Jiaojiao and an old educated youth were supposed to go out together to collect firewood and replenish the firewood to facilitate everyone's cooking and washing.

As a result, Chen Jiaojiao didn't really want to collect firewood today, so she wanted the old educated youth who lived with her to help her collect more firewood. Unexpectedly, the female educated youth was not happy about it and got angry.

The two people started arguing. Chen Jiaojiao meant that she was tired after cutting rice all day and didn't have the energy to collect firewood anymore. She asked if someone could help her collect some firewood. After all, she had just arrived, while the old educated youth had been there for a while. What would be wrong in asking someone to be considerate and help her more?

As a result, the old educated youth who cooperated with Shen Jiaojiao got furious when they heard what she said. You said before that you just arrived and asked me to help you more. Okay, I will help you. Every time it is our turn to collect firewood, I will do more. Let's help each other. There is no problem.

But now the autumn harvest has begun, everyone is tired, and you have been here for so many days, you should be used to it. Even if you can't pick up much, you can pick up a little. At most you have to make a few more trips. At least there is meaning in cooperation. Otherwise, she always comes alone to pick up the fruits, and Chen Jiaojiao rests there alone. She is also tired, and she is even more unhappy.

What's more, what the old educated youth said is right. We all came from the city, and we all came from the countryside. Who can get used to it from the beginning? Everyone just works hard and gets used to it.

Why should I give in to you, pamper you, and serve you like a young lady just because of a matter of arriving early or late?

When Chen Jiaojiao heard what the other party said, she burst into tears and tears kept flowing.

When Zhao Yuanchao pushed the door open, he and the villagers outside saw the old educated youth yelling at Chen Jiaojiao, while Chen Jiaojiao was crying.

When Zhao Yuanchao saw this scene, he sighed, then immediately closed the door of the educated youth site and prepared to see how to solve the problem.

When Shen Jiaren saw this situation, she knew that the gossip would probably end here today, and the rest would probably only be known tomorrow.

When the villagers standing outside the yard saw what happened, they dispersed immediately. However, even as they dispersed, they were still discussing the quarrel inside the educated youth center.

Shen Jiaren also walked towards her home, but on the way, Shen Jiaren was also thinking that judging from the situation just now, the old educated youth was a person who would not suffer any loss. Some things could be tolerated, but she would never tolerate them again and again.

The trouble is Chen Jiaojiao. She had a quarrel with Aunt Zhou in the morning, and then had a quarrel with the people in the educated youth center in the afternoon. If word of this gets to the ears of the team leader Liu Dashan, who knows what Chen Jiaojiao will do.

But looking at it this afternoon, it turns out that everyone has a gossipy heart, especially when encountering a quarrel like this, they are really curious about what happened. Shen Jiaren thought about it and realized that it was wrong. Aunt Aihua did not gossip about the quarrel at the educated youth point this afternoon.

Hehe, it seems that not everyone has a gossipy heart, but nine out of ten people love gossip.
