The Brilliant Life of a Post-Apocalyptic Female Boss Reborn at 70
Chapter 33 Interesting Things in the Fields
After the dinner, Xin Yi declined Aunt Zhang's offer to help clean up the mess and told them to go home and rest early.
Aunt Zhang couldn't refuse, so she had to take the dishes and chopsticks she had brought back home to wash. After a brief conversation, Zhang Laifu's family left.
Xin Yi put the leftovers together; the weather was getting cooler, so it wouldn't hurt to save them for tomorrow.
"Sister Yiyi, is there anything I can do to help you?"
Liu Mengting really wanted to get things done, but seeing Xin Yi tidying up so methodically, she didn't know how to get involved.
Xin Yi didn't even look up. "Alright, you've been working all day. Aren't you tired? Go back, wash up, and go to sleep. Do you really need to help me with this little bit of work?"
"So, I'm really going back?"
Liu Mengting tentatively asked.
"Go away, stop acting crazy here!"
After a long day of work, Liu Mengting was indeed very tired. The delicious food earlier had made her feel less tired, but now that she was full, she was extremely sleepy.
Since Xin Yi has spoken, I don't need to force myself to keep going.
"I'm off now, thank you for your hard work, Sister Yiyi!"
After saying that, he walked towards the educated youth settlement.
Only now can Xin Yi immerse herself in her work and enjoy time that is all her own.
In her past life, no one could have imagined that the famous Goddess of Thunder would be a homebody who spent her free time doing housework.
When her special abilities were first revealed, it took her a long time to convince herself to stand up and save the world. But she never expected to be betrayed by the person she loved and to die tragically.
Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Since God has given me a second chance at life, I must live authentically and live a wonderful life.
Time often flies when a person is engrossed in doing something.
After everything was tidied up and the dishes were washed, Xin Yi was exhausted.
I mustered my strength to wipe the table and chairs clean, carried them back to my room, and then went to wash up and go to bed.
Silent all night.
Xin Yi was not awakened from her sleep until the first gong and drum sounded to signal the start of work.
"Yes, I can only sleep most soundly in my own room. When I sleep well, I feel full of energy!"
After resting for a while, Xin Yi got up, washed up quickly, and then Liu Mengting came over.
"Sister Yiyi, are you awake?"
Xin Yi opened the courtyard gate. "Come in, you sure have a loud voice! I don't feel like cooking this morning, so I'll just have some malted milk and some snacks!"
Liu Mengting proudly raised her hand, shaking the bag in her hand, "Great minds think alike! Hehe!"
The two of them ate a little something to eat, mainly because they had gotten up too early and didn't have much of an appetite. But they couldn't go without eating, as they would have no energy after a morning of work.
Having completed their preparations, the two masked heroes hurriedly headed towards the fields.
For some reason, Xin Yi has been assigned to remove weeds. I don't know where all these weeds came from; it's most likely that Uncle Zhang asked the team leader to arrange it.
Who cares? I'm just a brick, I'll be moved wherever I'm needed. As for whether it's through connections or backdoors, as long as no one says anything, I'm happy to have some peace and quiet.
However, while imagination is beautiful, reality often slaps you in the face.
"Hey, Xin Zhiqing, I heard you moved into your new house last night and invited the village chief's whole family over. Isn't this blatant bribery going too far?"
A sharp, sarcastic voice interrupted Xin Yi's self-absorption, and she turned her head to look in the direction the voice came from.
"What's your name, auntie who's speaking?"
The aunt rolled her eyes and said, "I'm from the Chen family, everyone calls me Aunt Hua!"
"Ahem, Aunt Hua, we have no past grudges or recent feuds, why are you slandering me?"
Before Xin Yi could finish speaking, Aunt Hua nearly jumped up. "Why would I need to slander you? Everyone in the village knows you bribed the village chief's family. There's a saying: 'If you don't want people to know, unless... unless..."
"Unless you do it in the first place, don't do it! Hahaha, Aunt Hua, it's a bit much to pretend to be so cultured when you can't just say it's nothing!"
Hearing Xin Yi say she was uneducated, Aunt Hua became even more indignant, "When I was in school, you didn't even know what a piece of trash you were! I graduated from fourth grade and I'm a top student! Who do you think you are!"
To be honest, when Aunt Hua was little, it was already quite good that she could finish fourth grade; at least she wasn't illiterate.
But in front of Xin Yi, a high school student, he seemed insignificant.
“Aunt Hua, you seem to have forgotten that there are six grades in elementary school. You only graduate after finishing six grades. Going to fourth grade is just considered dropping out! Besides…”
Xin Yi changed the subject, "In front of me, a high school student, let alone graduating from fourth grade, even graduating from junior high school wouldn't be enough!"
Knowing she was in the wrong, Aunt Hua had no choice but to change the subject, "Xin Zhiqing, we're talking about your bribery of the village chief, it has nothing to do with when I graduate!"
"Who said we have no connection? We have a lot in common! At least I don't know how to address you after working with you for so long, which means we're not close. Besides, I don't want to have anything to do with someone who only graduated from fourth grade; it would just lower my IQ for no reason!"
After saying that, he glanced at Aunt Hua with a look of disgust.
The aunties watching the commotion nearby, not wanting to miss out on the excitement, fanned the flames, saying, "Although Aunt Hua only graduated from fourth grade, at least she doesn't bribe anyone and works diligently. Although she has a sharp tongue, her character is impeccable!"
Aunt Hua became even more smug when she heard someone speak up for her. "See? Everyone's eyes are sharp. They can tell right from wrong who the good guys are and who the bad guys are!"
Upon hearing this, the people around burst into laughter. Aunt Hua then realized that what she had just said wasn't exactly a compliment, and immediately rolled up her sleeves.
"Zhang Xiaohua, do you want to fight me? You're the one with the foul mouth, your whole family has a foul mouth!"
When Zhang Xiaohua heard the other person insulting her whole family, she was also unhappy and immediately fought back. Before long, the two of them were wrestling.
In fact, in this era, especially in rural areas, it was common for women to quarrel and even fight each other. When a conflict arose, a fight would resolve it, and the next day they would happily go to work together and gossip together.
Xin Yi had only been there a short time and hadn't had much contact with others; otherwise, they would have already started fighting.
The fight between Aunt Hua and her husband intensified, and no one came to stop them. Instead, they cheered them on with great interest, just to see who would win!
Since the people she knew weren't saying anything bad, Xin Yi naturally didn't want to get involved. She grabbed a handful of melon seeds from her pocket and sat down on the edge of the field to watch the show. In her excitement, she even shared the melon seeds with the aunties who lived nearby.
The older woman looked at Xin Yi in surprise, then took the item and sat down next to her.
