Eating melons

Chapter 404 Black Monkey

If Xiao Xuemu could make her family lose their jobs, five of them at that, with just one word, then what was the difference between him and the local tyrants of the past?

But now is no longer the same era as before, and there are no local tyrants anymore.

Everyone is equal now, so Xiao Xuemu has neither the qualifications nor the ability to take away her family's jobs.

Therefore, Zhu Ying did not take Xiao Xuemu's words to heart. Of course, even if she took it to heart, it would be of no use except to increase her worries. She was already unable to take care of herself now.

Because she was still afraid of Xiao Xuemu's threats to her safety. After all, she didn't know whether Xiao Xuemu was a lunatic.

Because of Xiao Xuemu's threats, she was always worried and didn't dare to be alone, for fear that Xiao Xuemu would really take action. However, the people at the Youth League Institute isolated her and were on guard against her everywhere.

The rumors about the educated youth institute, coupled with the heavy farm work, were almost driving her crazy.

Now, let alone thinking about those things to remind her family, let alone being sarcastic to Wei Wei, even her daily life is full of difficulties.

The next day, Wei Wei, Jiang Qi and Liu Jiaojiao changed their workplace and took on new tasks.

I don’t know if it’s because the work for the new educated youth has not been completed yet, but they didn’t meet the new educated youth this time.

Without the presence of the new educated youth, the three of them felt that the air was a lot fresher.

I don’t know if it’s because Xiao Xuemu’s threat worked, but Wei Wei hasn’t met Zhu Ying for some time.

Without people looking for trouble, time passes very quickly and comfortably.

After two months of harvest, the rain finally came, giving people some time to breathe.

Seeing that it was raining, Liu Jiaojiao didn't care about anything else. As soon as she arrived at Jiang Qi's house, she lay down on the chair where Wei Wei and Jiang Qi usually rested.

"Oh my God, it finally stopped. I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. I'm almost dying of exhaustion. What's wrong with the weather this year? This is the first time it's rained in over two months."

Hearing this, Wei Wei quickly stopped talking, "Be careful, don't say anything. It's okay to say it here, but don't say it outside. Don't let anyone know, otherwise you will definitely be scolded."

Everyone was looking forward to good weather so that they could harvest the crops quickly.

During this period, they often heard those people from the Red Star Brigade say that God was kind this year and it hadn't rained for such a long time, so they asked them to first harvest all the beans, corn and rice that sprout easily when exposed to water.

If people knew that they prayed for rain in their hearts every day, they would definitely be scolded.

Although we talk about breaking feudal superstitions, it only means not being superstitious. People still believe in them, but everyone just understands it tacitly.

Hearing Wei Wei's words, Liu Jiaojiao waved her hands and said, "Don't worry! I'm not that stupid. I'm just saying this here. I know you won't say anything nonsense, so I said it.

If anyone else were here, I wouldn't say that.

By the way, Yu Xi said that it might take two or three days to rain down, so we can have a good rest during these two or three days.

It's been so hot and sunny lately, and I've been working in the fields every day. Look at me now, don't I look like a black monkey? Dark and skinny."

Speaking of Liu Jiaojiao, I feel like crying. She is the most vain one usually, but she is also the one who has changed the most now. She is the ugliest.

After hearing what Liu Jiaojiao said, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi looked at Liu Jiaojiao carefully and openly.

Although it is not as exaggerated as what Liu Jiaojiao said, that she looks like a black monkey, Liu Jiaojiao has indeed become darker and thinner during this period.

Liu Jiaojiao looked at Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's faces, feeling helpless.

"We all worked in the fields together, and you two did more than me. You may have lost weight and become a little darker, but you're still much better than me. Why is that? This is so unfair."

Hearing this, Wei Wei and Liu Jiaojiao complained in their hearts, what the hell, of course they spent more money and put more effort into it.

In such hot weather, they used all kinds of sunscreen, both physical and chemical, useful and useless ones.

As for sunscreen, since they have no shortage of money, they just buy the most expensive one and use it every day.

Not only sunscreen, but also after-sun repair never stops. Every night, no matter how tired I am or how late it is, I never miss the after-sun repair ointment and moisturizing mask.

It has come to this. If there is no effect at all, the two of them will appeal to the central government. Even the system cannot cheat people like this.

But now it seems that the effect is still good. Although we cannot say that the products produced by the system are necessarily high-quality, they are still useful.

Although they cannot be compared with Li Zhibin, who is born without tanning, compared with normal people, they are already much better.

However, these things cannot be told to Liu Jiaojiao, nor can they be shared with her.

However, Jiang Qi thought of a solution, but I don’t know if it will work.

"Don't you have a lot of cucumbers in your garden? Go home tonight and cut the cucumbers into thin slices and apply them on your face. Try it."

It can hydrate the skin. Although it may not necessarily whiten the skin, it can still hydrate the skin a little and make the skin less rough."

This was the first time Liu Jiaojiao had heard of this method. "Does it work? Is this what you guys use?"

Jiang Qi wasn't sure if it would work, as she had never used it.

"I'm not sure about that. As for using it, how will the two of us use it?"

"Then how come you two don't get a tan?"

"Well...we don't know either, but we both got tanned, just not as badly as you guys."

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi both felt a little guilty after hearing this, like the kind of people who say in front of others that they won't study at all and will give up, but then secretly study hard when they get home at night.

He told Liu Jiaojiao that nothing worked, this didn't work, that didn't work, and then they went back and applied all kinds of products on their faces as if they were free.

Liu Jiaojiao was a little disappointed when she heard this, but she still decided to go back and try it at night, just as a last resort to see if the disease could be saved.

I am with Wei Wei and Jiang Qi every day, working in the fields like them, wearing hats, long sleeves and gloves like them.

But they are so white and she is so dark, which really makes it difficult for her to accept this fact.

Liu Jiaojiao suddenly remembered something. "Although I don't know if I have to work tomorrow, I definitely don't have to work today. It's only a little after three o'clock, so it's still early. Let's have dinner tonight!"

After saying this, he changed his previous decadence and looked at Wei Wei and Jiang Qi with bright eyes.

"That chicken hotpot you made last time was really delicious. Let's have that tonight. Don't worry, I'll provide the chicken."

Wei Wei didn't care about this, but Jiang Qi didn't want to eat it that much.

Because the weather is a bit hot and humid, and her period is about to come, she feels a little dry and is not suitable for eating hot pot.

But seeing how much Liu Jiaojiao was looking forward to it, he nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing that they agreed, Liu Jiaojiao immediately jumped off the chair.

"Then you guys go prepare the things, I'll go buy the chicken."

After saying that, even though it was still raining heavily outside, Liu Jiaojiao rushed home. Wei Wei and Jiang Qi had not yet finished their words to ask her to go slowly and get her an umbrella before she had already run away.

Liu Jiaojiao was really greedy. The hot pot she had last time was also very delicious. Not only was it delicious, it was also very easy and convenient to make.

She felt embarrassed to often go to Wei Wei and Jiang Qi's house for free meals, so she suggested buying ingredients.

Now that they had agreed to go back immediately to get the money to buy chickens, she was afraid that Wei Wei and Jiang Qi would go back on their word because she had seen the hesitation on Jiang Qi's face just now.

If Jiang Qi changed his mind a little later, she would have no place to cry.

She was really greedy. She had no time to go out to buy food during this period. She had to eat the same food with little oil every day, and had to do such tiring work every day. She really couldn't stand it anymore.

Seeing Liu Jiaojiao's anxious look, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi just found it funny.
