Chapter 40 Getting to work
In this way, under the intimidation of Aunt Zhou, those hands that were ready to take action were finally stopped.
Soon the team leader's mobilization meeting was over, and then the next step began - division of labor, with male and female educated youth working separately.
The four female educated youth were divided into groups of two and assigned to the women doing farm work, asking them to lead the work.
Lin Sitian and Yun Ya were assigned to an aunt named Wang and her daughter-in-law. Xia Zhiyan and Bai Wanting were also assigned to a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but they were assigned to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Zhang Dahua, who they had met on the ox cart the day before and had been specifically warned against taking advantage of.
Preparations are underway for autumn plowing, which marks a year of ground preparation. This requires tilling the soil, a laborious task largely assigned to male members of the team or educated youth.
The female team members or educated youth were responsible for following behind and picking up larger stones. They had to pick out the stones and sand from the entire turned over land to facilitate better farming.
Generally, the selected land has been plowed in advance, so after the work is divided, the team members will go together to the tool shed to collect their own farm tools.
Farmers who plow the land are given farm tools such as hoes, while those who pick up stones are given winnowing baskets, because they have to put the picked stones in the winnowing baskets and pour them at the edge of the field to enclose the land. This way the land looks piece by piece, which is both beautiful and separates the boundaries of each plot of land.
After receiving the tools for work, everyone followed their team members to the land allocated to them and started working.
Fortunately, Lin Sitian and Xia Zhiyan's teams were not far away, so it seemed convenient for them to take care of each other.
Picking up stones may seem easy, but it is very tiring to keep hunching your back and repeating the same action for a long time.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law named Wang who were in the same team with Lin Sitian were not only gentle in their speech, but also extremely patient with others. One of them taught Lin Sitian, and the other taught Yun Ya.
After all, one of them looks sweet, cute and young, which makes people want to protect her, while the other one looks quiet and gentle, like a beautiful girl from a small family.
These two types of girls are the most popular, so the Wang couple, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, take great care of the two new educated youth.
Xia Zhiyan and her friends, who were not far away from them, were not as harmonious and warm. Instead, the situation was chaotic.
Zhang Dahua took it for granted that although the two female educated youth in front of her were beautiful, it would be useless if they could not work.
Moreover, they were assigned to the same work group as me on the first day of work. Even God was helping me. If they didn't give me some benefits, I would never help them.
So Zhang Dahua also instructed her daughter-in-law not to tell the two new female educated youth what to pay attention to when going to work, and not to help the two female educated youth. She was just waiting for the two female educated youth to come to her for help when they couldn't bear it anymore.
But things did not always go as planned. Although Xia Zhiyan came from a well-off family, she still understood the basics. When the team leader was dividing the work, he had already explained to them in detail how to pick up stones, and she also received the tools to work.
The most important thing is that I brought gloves, so I was able to get started quickly based on the concept. After all, this job doesn’t require much technical skills.
Bai Wanting was even more direct. She walked all the way to the workplace and observed how others did it. She wrote it down silently and then looked at Xia Zhiyan's method. Based on her usual experience of working at home, she quickly figured out the key points and told Xia Ziyan some precautions.
So both of them got the hang of it quickly and didn't give Zhang Dahua any chance to take advantage. This made Zhang Dahua feel as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly, so she treated the two new educated youths with sarcasm and in a sarcastic tone.
"Oh my, this young lady has to pick up the pebbles herself. Look, look, even a stone is so precious, and she even has to wear gloves.
They don't know how to endure hardships and be frugal at all. They might as well buy a few pounds of food with the money for the gloves. After all, it can last them for a long time. Tsk, tsk tsk, on the first day they have to use the food from the team to feed them.
As a result, I have money to buy food, but I still use it to buy those honest gloves. Tsk, tsk, tsk, things from the city are so expensive."
Zhang Dahua's daughter-in-law listened to her mother-in-law's sarcastic words, and then looked at the two new educated youths. Her jealous eyes almost turned into sharp blades, making the two educated youths feel disgusted.
Although Xia Zhiyan was steady, she wasn't one to take any losses. After all, if she endured it today, there would be more rumors tomorrow. After all, the flames had to be extinguished the moment they started, otherwise they would only grow higher.
So he retorted without any hesitation: "Ma'am, first of all, on the first day we arrived at the brigade, we did go to the brigade to get food, but we paid the corresponding amount of money for the food, and we did not borrow food from the brigade, nor did we burden the brigade in any way.
So after we spent the money to buy food, we didn't owe the brigade anything, and we were educated youth who responded to the country's call to go to the countryside to support rural construction.
On our first day in the countryside, you were already being sarcastic and snarky about us. Do you have a different opinion on the policies of the national leaders? Or are you dissatisfied with something and taking it out on us? That's why you look down on us like that (???皿??)??3??.
The neighboring team members heard these words. After all, they had been quietly paying attention to the movements here when Zhang Dahua started the attack.
They also wanted to see how these well-off and good-looking educated youth would fight back. If they listened quietly, they might be able to get some benefits. However, they were really shocked when they heard Xia Zhiyan's remarks.
This is against the policies of the national leaders! How could Zhang Dahua dare to admit it? At this moment, hearing this seemingly dignified and generous girl say such a decisive move, she was stunned for a moment and dared not say a word.
Zhang Dahua's daughter-in-law was even more frightened, fearing that she would be dragged out for criticism, and hurriedly excused herself for her mother-in-law:
"Hey, Xia Zhiqing, look at what you said. My mother was just joking. It was your first day at work, and she wanted to make a joke. The more lively the better. Don't take it seriously. Let's be more generous."
The aunties nearby who seemed to be making a big deal out of things also chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, it was just a joke, don't take it so seriously."
"That's right. I brought new gloves to pick up such a small stone. She just said a few words to me. She didn't do anything. Why is she making such a fuss and making such a serious statement?"
.........
Listening to everyone's chatter, Lin Sitian, who was not far away, was also worried about them, fearing that this matter would be handled lightly.
After all, this is where I'll spend my future in this brigade, so it all depends on how this matter is handled. If I can intimidate the team members, I'll have a comfortable life in the future. If I can't, there will definitely be those who love to take advantage of others and make sarcastic remarks every few days.
