Rebirth of a Little Cannon Fodder

Chapter 32 Autumn Harvest

Qiao Chuchu didn't expect that there would be such people in the Youth League, but then she thought about it and realized that the Youth League all came from the city and had never done any hard work before. They would definitely not be able to bear the sudden need to do farm work.

If you can't work, you will get fewer work points. With fewer work points, you will get less food and money, so naturally your living standard will be low. Moreover, not all educated youths received support from their families. Most of them were abandoned by their families. After all, they had a whole family to support, and it was impossible for them to ignore the life and death of the whole family for the sake of a son or daughter.

But this is not a reason to cheat people for food and drink. Now the people in the team can't do anything to that educated youth, but it may be different in the long run.

After agreeing to have breakfast at Qiao Chuchu's place early tomorrow morning, the two of them went to bed early because they had a tough battle to fight tomorrow!

The next morning, Qiao Chuchu and Ma Ning had breakfast and went to work together. When they arrived at the square, they joined the group of educated youth.

"Oh, these educated young people Qiao and Ma have also come to work. I thought some people were living the lives of capitalist ladies and couldn't come out to work."

As soon as I approached, I heard a sarcastic voice. I knew it was Yu Zhiqing without thinking. This guy never stopped talking. No matter whether I could win the argument or not, he would always say something annoying to everyone he met.

"How come the two of us, Yu Zhiqing, are living the lives of capitalist ladies? And Ma Zhiqing and I both go to work on time. If you don't believe me, we can go to the scorekeeper and check the work point book."

"I just don't know what to do after looking at the work points sheet and realizing that Yu Zhiqing is the one who didn't work hard. Could it be that Yu Zhiqing doesn't like working because she lives the life of a capitalist lady, so she assumes that others don't work hard either?"

Qiao Chuchu would never tolerate Yu Zhaodi. Ever since she didn't get the best of her on the train to the countryside, she has been looking for trouble every time they meet. She didn't want to bother with him at first, but she would have thought that the more she pampered him, the worse he would become.

Today, he was accusing himself and Ma Ning in front of so many people. You have to know that this was still an era when people were afraid to talk about anything. If these words were spread, they might not bring any trouble to himself and Ma Ning.

"Qiao Chuchu you." Yu Zhaodi didn't expect that she had talked about Qiao Chuchu before, but this person ignored her every time. She didn't expect that this time she would be so disrespectful to her.

Originally, I just wanted to satisfy my desire to eat. If I really check the work points book, I can't help but check it. I have been in the countryside for so long and I am still not used to farm work. Naturally, I don't want to do it. The fairies in the Youth League still eat from the same pot. I can always take less food and get more from others.

After a while, I felt that it was pretty good. I didn't have to do much work and I could still eat my fill. It was much better than being at home by myself before.

Seeing that Yu Zhaodi was speechless, Qiao Chuchu ignored her.

She didn't know how bad Yu Zhaodi's reputation was in the educated youth home. The other educated youth had long wanted to break up with her, but because the autumn harvest was approaching, no one brought it up immediately.

"Attention, team members. Attention, team members." The captain's voice came from the podium.

Because today is the first day of autumn harvest, the team leader gave a speech early in the morning to motivate the team members.

After the team leader gave the team members a boost early in the morning, he began to assign tasks. Qiao Chuchu and Ma Ning were assigned to Aunt Cuihua's group, and were led by Aunt Cuihua and another aunt from the same family to harvest rice.

When the whistle blew, everyone started to work in the fields.

"Qiao Zhiqing, you follow me, Ma Zhiqing, you follow Aunt Liu. Don't worry if you can't handle it. Your sister-in-law Liu and I will help you when the time comes."

Aunt Cuihua glanced at Sister Liu and smiled at them both.

Qiao Chuchu and Ma Ning smiled gratefully.

Two aunts were waving sickles in front, and with the sound of swishing, the rice fell down in large pieces.

Qiao Chuchu and Ma Ning needed to bundle up the cut rice. The two aunts were waving sickles quickly in front of them, and Qiao Chuchu and Ma Ning were also quickly bundling the rice.

It was fine at the beginning, but after a while the two of them gradually couldn't keep up and were left far behind by the two aunts.

Seeing this, the two of them had no choice but to follow as best they could. Although the two aunts said that they would help them bundle the rice after they came back after harvesting it, they couldn't rely entirely on the two aunts. After all, helping them was a favor, and not helping them was their duty.

Just as the two were fighting with all their might, a male voice came from their ears.

"Does Qiao Zhiqing need help?"

When Qiao Chuchu looked up, she found that the person in front of her was Ji Shaowen. After hearing what Ji Shaowen said, Qiao Chuchu wanted to refuse rationally but didn't want to do it physically. While she was thinking, she saw Ji Shaowen start to do it directly.

"Comrade Ji, thank you for your help. I can do this job myself. There's no need..."

"Qiao Zhiqing, you don't have to be so polite. I'm the only one in my family and it's not convenient for me to cook during the autumn harvest. How about I eat with you and Ma Zhiqing?"

Before Qiao Chuchu could finish her words, she was interrupted by Ji Shaowen.

"Sharing a meal? Eating? This..."

"Chu Chu, I think it's possible. We are definitely not able to do this job anymore. With Comrade Ji's help, we will definitely feel better. When the time comes, we won't ask Comrade Ji to provide food. We will provide all the ingredients."

Ma Ning really wanted Qiao Chuchu to agree. After all, she really couldn't do it anymore. If she wasn't grown up now, she would have wanted to cry.

Qiao Chuchu thought about it and felt that what Ma Ning said made sense. They had only been working for a short while when they felt they couldn't stand it anymore. If they continued, the people who came would probably collapse here. So they just treated it as providing food to hire people to do the work.

"Comrade Ji, you just come and help us. What about your own tasks?"

"It's okay, I've already finished mine."

Liu Dazhuang, who was helping Ji Shaowen cut rice at this time, said, "Captain, you are so noble. I work for you and you work for your sweetheart. Then you don't care about my life or death. It is my blessing to have you."

Ji Shaowen knew that his little girl was definitely not capable of doing this kind of farm work, so he simply let Liu Dazhuang go to his task area to work so that he could find time to help.

To be honest, he couldn't bear to see his little girl suffer like this, but the little girl was an educated youth and had no choice but to work. It seemed that he had to win the little girl over as soon as possible so that he could protect her openly.

With Ji Shaowen's help, the two of them quickly caught up with the two aunts. The two aunts also saw that although Ji Shaowen was surprised, they did not say much.

There's nothing strange about a group of young people playing together. As long as they don't cross the line and behave themselves, it's fine. Besides, the two aunts are not talkative people, so they naturally won't say anything unpleasant.

But there was still a little curiosity in their hearts. After all, for these older aunts, gossip was engraved in their bones.

Seeing the three people catching up from behind, he began to work even harder to cut the rice.
