Time Travel: The Vicious Female Supporting Character's Counterattack

At dawn, the sun slowly rose, and the sounds around became more and more lively. Some teams set out without bringing rations, so someone in the team specially delivered rations. People from the same team gathered together, eating and chatting.

Shen Erzhu had told the members the day before to bring their own rations, so when they set out, they all had a small bag tied to their belts, which contained their own rations.

Seeing them eating, Shen Shuyu also felt hungry. She opened the aluminum lunch box and saw that Old Mrs. Shen had cooked corn porridge for her and a peeled egg.

The people next to her swallowed unconsciously when they saw the eggs in her lunch box. Shen Shuyu finished eating the eggs before drinking the corn porridge.

After she finished her porridge, the staff of the grain station came to work. They were dressed in respectable work clothes and looked at the people around the grain station with arrogance on their faces.

As soon as the gate of the grain station opened, the team leader who was the first in line asked the members of the team to carry the grain down.

Several staff members sat at their respective posts, each doing their own job. There were many procedures for paying public grain.

The staff member took a long, pointed iron rod with a hollow groove in the middle and poked it into the grain bag. When he pulled it out, the grain came out with it. She first squeezed it in her hand, took a few grains, put them in her mouth, bit them, spit them out, and said, "Not bad, let's weigh it!"

The grain inspection process is long and tiring, and those who come to deliver grain are most afraid of the staff saying, "No!"

Shen Erzhu has been the team leader for so many years and has his own way of doing things. He prepared two packs of cigarettes in his pocket and specially lined up with the male comrades for inspection. When it was their turn, Shen Erzhu stepped forward and quietly stuffed two packs of cigarettes into the staff. The worker touched his pocket without leaving a trace, with a faint smile on his face.

He poked the hollow iron rod casually, brought out the grain, squeezed it, and said, "Okay, let's weigh it!"

Shen Shuyu woke up Gu Jiandong, and the two of them and the strong laborers in the team carried the grain to the next door to be weighed. After being weighed, they had to move it into the granary. After carrying it back and forth, they could squeeze out half a bucket of sweat from their clothes. The others were exhausted and panting, but Shen Shuyu didn't feel tired, but very hot. The sweat on his forehead dripped down like rain.

After the grain was moved, Shen Erzhu put the IOU away and waited until the end of the year to settle the accounts. After deducting the agricultural tax, if there was any money left, he could go home! If it was not enough, the team would have to write an IOU to the commune.

Shen Erzhu led the team out. As they were leaving, Shen Shuyu heard a team leader with a dejected look on his face pleading with the staff, "Comrade, please be kind and make some concessions. Our team is far from the commune. It takes more than three hours to walk here. We set out at one o'clock last night. It's not easy to carry all this food here. After so much effort, you asked us to carry it back. This..."

The staff member had a cold expression on his face, spitting out the wheat husks he had just tasted. He grabbed a handful of wheat and rubbed it. "Your wheat isn't even dried out completely, and there's a lot of sand and gravel in it. It doesn't meet the acceptance standards. How can I pass it?"

The staff waved their hands, impatiently told him to go aside, and called the next one!

After working so hard to bring the grain here, everyone in the team was in a heavy mood when it was found to be unqualified during inspection.

Uncle Shen and Shen Erzhu whispered, "Uncle, isn't this Chen Congming, the captain of the Wazitun team? Why has their team's food been returned again?"

Shen Erzhu just sighed and said nothing. As both were team leaders, Shen Erzhu and Chen Congming were quite close. He had already reminded Chen Congming, a dull-witted man, to prepare a pack of cigarettes, and he agreed.

Shen Erzhu thought he had listened to him, but judging by his attitude, he was probably reluctant to spend those few cents. Chen Congming was really not smart at all. He clearly spent a few cents to buy a pack of cigarettes, so that he and everyone else wouldn't have to go back and forth. But now, everyone stayed up all night to carry food here, and now they have to carry the food back under the scorching sun. It's really...!
