Chapter 6 Backlash The most important thing is that gentle smile

Jiang Youyou didn't succeed in going to Houqingshan. It was not because she was afraid to go, but because she found out embarrassingly that she couldn't remember the way at all.

The mountains and forests in the 1970s were not developed much. The mountain roads were basically made by people. They were winding and messy, and they led to different places. The mountains and forests didn't have any special features. When she and Geng Shu walked back to the educated youth point, she only cared about not being left behind and forgot to remember the way. So after Geng Shu didn't agree to take her, Jiang Youyou couldn't find it by herself.

It was still dark that day. She ran out when everyone went to bed, holding a flashlight. Fortunately, no one in the Zhuxi production team had a dog at that time, otherwise she would definitely be barked at.

She stumbled and searched for a long time, but couldn't find it. The night was dark and quiet, and there was a crackling sound when she stepped lightly on the ground. Finally, Jiang Youyou couldn't bear the fear in her heart. After hearing the faint howling of wolves in the distance, she went back.

She was a little frustrated and a little scared. This was the first time in her two lives that she had experienced such a deep mountain at night. If it wasn't for going home, she would definitely not be so brave, but she still couldn't find the way back.

Because of this, Jiang Youyou couldn't sleep when she returned to the educated youth point.

After she fell asleep, it was not long before the sun came up again. The rustling of her roommates waking up startled Jiang Youyou, who was feeling uneasy. After realizing where she was, she sighed again, got up resignedly, and started a new day of work.

The weather in June was hot. It was better in the morning, but as the sun rose, the heat could no longer be blocked.

Jiang Youyou was weeding grass with a straw hat on. Perhaps her heatstroke yesterday scared the team leader, so she was assigned this lighter job today. The workload was not too heavy, and she could occasionally sneak under the big tree to cool off. It was just a little embarrassing that the people doing the weeding were all half-grown children, because the work points were low, and rural families would not let strong laborers do this low-work-point job.

The rations of Zhuxi Production Team are distributed according to the principle of "work 6 people 4", and the rations distributed to the members are fixed. If you want to get more food and get money at the end of the year, you still have to work harder to earn work points. The more work points you have, the more food you can get. Therefore, most of the light work with low work points is done by the old, weak, sick and disabled in the village.

Jiang Youyou looked at the half-grown children beside her, and then looked up at the big sun. The embarrassment in her heart was suppressed by her.

As a "sick", she should not challenge the heavy work of fertilizing and carrying water under the scorching sun. The Chinese herbal medicine boiled by Dr. Xu is too bitter, so let her go.

So, Jiang Youyou, whose hands were still rubbed raw by the grass but not as good as the half-grown children, only got three and a half work points. It is estimated that if it were not for the fact that she was more serious and down-to-earth than before and did not slack off, and did not ask the boy to help, the captain would have given her two work points as a token of appreciation.

Jiang Youyou did not care much. At this time, she did not have a deep understanding of work points. She only knew that she had finally finished another day of farm work and could rest, which was good.
