The life of a female cannon fodder

21

When Li Qiu and Yu Hongying returned to the field, they looked carefully. There was no mugwort in the field where they were going to weed. No wonder she hadn't noticed it before.

They hadn't rested for long when the team leader blew the whistle to start work. Li Qiu didn't care. She had rested enough when she went to wash her hands before. Li Qiu was working without any laziness. She was already ahead of others, and now she was even faster.

The team leader and the team secretary watched from a distance and couldn't help nodding: "I thought the kids from the city couldn't do the work, but I didn't expect that the young intellectual Li was so good at work at a young age." She was able to reach this level not long after she arrived, which showed that she was hardworking.

The hardworking Li Qiu sneezed.

"I heard that this educated youth's family is well off?" The brigade secretary was older and rarely went to the commune. In the past, it was the brigade leader and the women's director who helped Li Qiu pack. So he only heard from his wife that the new educated youth Li was a hot commodity and many people wanted to matchmake for her. But later, they stopped talking when they found out that she had a fiancé: "I heard that her fiancé is a soldier?"

"Yes, he's in the back mountain. He came to us very quickly."

The brigade secretary heard this and said, "Tell those vagrants in the team and Li Guihua and the others not to mess with those kids from the city, especially the one over there." He glanced at Li Qiu's position and said in a low but sharp voice: "Otherwise, if something happens, no one can protect them."

"Got it, Third uncle. I told them a long time ago, don't worry. "

"I'm afraid they won't learn their lesson without a lesson." Thinking of what Li Guihua had done, the brigade secretary couldn't help but sigh, and went home slowly with his hands behind his back.

He was old and his family was considerate of him, so they didn't need him to work anymore. It was just that he was worried about the farmland, so he came to check on them every day. Now that he had stayed for a long time, it was time for him to go back and rest.

After watching the brigade secretary leave, the brigade leader started to supervise the people working in the farmland again. He knew what the third uncle meant. He just felt that the punishment for Li Guihua was too light, so Li Guihua didn't learn her lesson and still had the energy to gossip around every day.

After the brigade leader blew the whistle at noon to get off work, Li Qiu asked her to help her make a pattern for the clothes she was going to make in front of the educated youth.

"Is Li Zhiqing going to make clothes?" Wei Kangmei asked her curiously, "You learned it in one morning from Grandma Zhao?"

"Grandma Zhao taught very seriously, but I was afraid that I couldn't make the pattern well, so I wanted to ask Yu Zhiqing to help me." Li Qiu curled his lips: "I think Yu Zhiqing's clothes are very beautiful."

Wei Kangmei looked at Yu Hongying's black top with patches on top of patches and her black pants with the same patches on top of patches, and couldn't see what was good about them. Aren't all clothes like this? It's not a tweed coat. But she still complimented Yu Hongying along with Li Qiu's words: "Yu Zhiqing's clothes are beautiful. You see, hers is waist-hugging, which can save a lot of fabric."

Li Qiu: "..."

I lost.

After entering the Youth Farm, people cooked and rested. They washed their hands and faces. If they didn't have to work again in the afternoon, everyone would have wanted to take a shower. Jiang Yue took the two Youth Farmers to fetch water. Li Qiu frowned at the big vat in the yard. He didn't think much of it at ordinary times, but when the weather got hot and everyone needed water, he realized that the water source was far away and it was quite troublesome.
