Shen Xiaoxia walked to Aunt Guixiang's side and said, "Aunt, it's great that you're here. I still need to learn a lot from you about the work in the fields. You have to teach me more!"

As he spoke, he avoided everyone's sight and stuffed a few pieces of fruit candy into Aunt Guixiang's hand.

"Little educated youth Shen, you are too polite. Just follow me in a while and I will tell you what to do." There were people around, so Aunt Guixiang did not refuse and put the candy into her shirt pocket.

I thought to myself, this young intellectual Shen is really nice. She speaks politely and is generous. I will have to teach her seriously later.

Shen Xiaoxia looked around and asked, "Aunt, what are you going to plant now?"

"It's time to plant wheat and sweet potatoes in this season. In the next two days, turn the land over, make ridges, and remove the weeds in the ground," Aunt Guixiang said to Shen Xiaoxia.

Shen Xiaoxia nodded to indicate that she understood.

She had worked in the fields when she was a child and knew a little about it, but she definitely couldn't show it at this moment. She imitated Aunt Guixiang's actions, turning the soil while picking up the weeds and throwing them aside.

With the help of the skill pill "Strong as an Ox", and Shen Xiaoxia also knowing some tricks of farm work, tasks like turning the soil are not particularly difficult for Shen Xiaoxia.

She could actually do the work that requires strong labor and earn full work points.

But Shen Xiaoxia felt that it was unnecessary. She did not lack the food that she exchanged for work points, so she slowed down and performed as she did the first time. After a while, she fell far behind Aunt Guixiang.

When Aunt Guixiang looked back at her, she comforted her not to be anxious, saying that if it was her first time, she had already performed very well.

Listening to Aunt Guixiang's comfort, Shen Xiaoxia just nodded and smiled at Aunt Guixiang, saying that she was very strong, but she couldn't do it quickly and could only do it slowly.

Not everyone will work wholeheartedly. Shen Xiaoxia observed a little and found that there were many people taking advantage of the situation. They seemed to be working, but in fact they were just gathering in groups of three or four to chat.

Shen Xiaoxia actually wanted to go over and listen, as she was sure she would hear a lot of gossip, but thinking that it was the first day and they weren't familiar with each other, she decided to give up and wait until they got to know each other better.

After the morning was over, Shen Xiaoxia didn't feel much and didn't feel tired, but she didn't show it.

When we returned to the Youth League Home, He Tingyuan, Xie Yunheng and Han Zhuxin had already returned.

Seeing Shen Xiaoxia coming back, Han Zhuxin came over to talk to her, "Xiaoxia, you're back, how do you feel?

I knew that farm work was tiring and I was mentally prepared, but I didn't expect it to be even more tiring than I thought. It's really not easy.

It's only been this morning, and I feel like I can't even straighten my back. Luckily you lent me your gloves, otherwise, my hands would probably be broken!"

Shen Xiaoxia replied to her, "This is how the work is done. I heard from the aunties working in the fields that if you've never done it before, it will be very tiring the first time. But once you get used to it and find a way, it will be much better than it is now. Just take your time."

Although He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng were boys, they were completely depressed because it was their first time doing farm work. They sat on the wooden benches under the eaves and drank water from cups.

Neither of them looked like they wanted to talk, and they were obviously tired.

For lunch, Shen Xiaoxia soaked some dried goods she had exchanged from Aunt Guixiang's house, mixed them with stir-fried vegetables, steamed some rice, and then took out a portion of braised pork from the space. She hid in the room and ate lunch.

This meal was considered the best in the village! In those days, some families could only afford a few meals of white rice a year, let alone braised pork.

After dinner, wash the pots and dishes and put them back in the kitchen.

Shen Xiaoxia originally wanted to take advantage of the lunch break to turn over the land where she was going to plant vegetables, but after thinking about it, she decided to give up and wait until she got off work in the afternoon and take a nap at noon.

When Shen Xiaoxia woke up, the whistle for the afternoon work had not yet sounded. She sat on the bed for a while, and when the whistle sounded, she followed everyone from the Youth League Institute into the field.

The afternoon work is the same as the morning work, turning the soil and removing weeds.

Shen Xiaoxia maintained her pace and worked at a leisurely pace, ensuring that her daily work points were slightly higher than the minimum requirement.

After finishing the work in the afternoon, Shen Xiaoxia was the first to return to the Youth League Home. When she arrived at the home, no one had returned yet.

He went into the house, drank some water, took the borrowed hoe and went out of the backyard. He found a piece of land next to the brother and sister's vegetable garden and planned to turn the soil first.

I don't plan to plant a lot, just enough for her to eat. Plus, there's already some in the space, so she can eat them together, so there's no need to plant a lot.

Shen Xiaoxia cleared two small plots of land and planned to plant some vegetables, peppers, winter melons, eggplants, cucumbers, etc. It just so happened that these vegetable seeds were already available when she signed in before.

There wasn't much land, so Shen Xiaoxia didn't waste any time and finished turning it over in a short while.

I plan to ask Aunt Guixiang to exchange some vegetable seeds when I get off work tomorrow so I can plant them when I come back.

When he returned to the front of the house, Han Zhuxin was sitting under the eaves. Seeing Shen Xiaoxia coming back from behind with a hoe on her shoulder, she asked, "Xiaoxia, where have you been?"

"I saw that the land outside the backyard was empty, so I cleared two small plots of land and planned to grow some vegetables for daily consumption. Otherwise, there would be no vegetables to eat later, and I can't keep asking the villagers to exchange them," Shen Xiaoxia explained.

"Xiao Xia, you can do it. After working all day, you still have the energy to open up the vegetable garden. I'm so tired now that I don't even want to cook dinner. I can only sit here and do nothing," Han Zhuxin looked like she had no strength to move.

"It has to be done sooner or later. I just want to do it in one go. The sooner it is grown, the sooner it can be eaten." Shen Xiaoxia joked with Han Zhuxin as if she was also very tired.

After working for a day, the people in the Youth League Home came back, some to rest, while others were still busy working.

There were several people in the backyard. Zhao Lingling came back to cook, Zhao Fan went to the mountain to collect firewood, and Hu Shixuan was said to have gone to the mountain as well, but no one knew what he was doing. He usually had little interaction with everyone.

He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng had several blisters on their hands because it was their first day at work and they had no experience and did not wear gloves. After work, they took their belongings to a family in the village to buy two pairs of gloves.

After a day of farm work, Shen Xiaoxia was a little tired, although she was better than the others. In the evening, she planned to go to the space to eat something good and reward herself. However, on the surface, Shen Xiaoxia took some cornmeal and went to the kitchen to make a few cornmeal pancakes.

In the space, Shen Xiaoxia was preparing to eat hot pot in the evening.

Slice the pork, mutton, and beef and set aside. Wash a potato, a handful of green vegetables, and a few mushrooms, and put one of each meatball. Ask the boss to put away the pig's blood that was used when the pig was slaughtered before, and take out a piece of it now. While waiting for the hot pot base to boil, Shen Xiaoxia eats hot pot while watching the downloaded videos on her mobile phone and watching TV series. It feels so good.

After dinner, I washed the dishes, signed for today's check-in, and received 50 yuan in cash.

Shen Xiaoxia went to the warehouse in the space for a while, digested her food, washed her hair and took a shower in the space, and made sure that there was no hot pot smell on her body before coming out.

The next day after work, Shen Xiaoxia went to Aunt Guixiang's house with her and brought back some vegetable seeds. She saved the seeds she got from Aunt Guixiang's house in her space. In fact, she used the seeds she signed in in the space to plant the vegetables in the backyard.

From now on, she will be able to eat pure, natural, green, and pollution-free vegetables that she grows herself!
